Capítulo 5: Twin Blades
Chapter 5 Twin Blades
…
While falling from the tree, Han Jin seems to perceive that everything is in slow motion. Although amazed, he quickly snaps out of it and tilted his body so that he could land on all fours.
Like a cat, he truly did land without a hitch and now faces the large warthog.
The saliva-dripping red-eyed warthog glares at Han Jin as if he is already dead and served as its dinner.
Without hesitation, it charges right at him which startled Han Jin as he suddenly jumps to the side and rolled on the ground before he quickly picks himself up and ran.
Once again he is in panic and did not know where he is going, but he is looking for a far sturdier tree to climb.
He soon found a large tall tree and without hesitation, quickly grabs two snake-tooth knives from his back and climbs it adeptly.
Bam!!!
Han Jin was startled to feel the tree shaking, but he plastered his body without letting go of the snake tooth daggers.
He then looks at the warthog below him glaring at his figure.
A slight smirk appears in his eyes as he continues climbing.
However, he soon notices the warthog slowly taking a few steps back and then ramming the tree once again.
The tree shake which almost made him fall, but he is already near the nearest branch so he gritted his teeth and continued climbing until he got into that branch.
But who would have known that as he was about to climb that branch, a few small creatures would appear and suddenly fling some hard objects at him?
Toink!!!
Han Jin felt something hitting his head hardly which causes him to wince in pain. As he looks up, he saw a monkey-like creature holding some sort of stone in its hand while in the act of throwing it toward him.
He was about to say something when that monkey-like creature threw the stone. He was able to quickly dodge it and was about to smirk when he noticed that besides that creature many others lifted their hands and is about to throw stones at him.
"Damn it! Why are you doing this to me?!" he cried in his mind as he dodges.
His dodging and the shaking of the tree caught him off-balance and made him fall once again.
He suddenly saw that he is actually falling to stop the warthog which caught him by surprise. But he has no time to think as he threw the two short snake-tooth knives to the beast and quickly grabbed his longest snake-tooth knife.
Roar!!!
Feeling the pain from its back, the warthog suddenly wanted to turn around, but before it could do anything it felt something falling on top of it. Then this was followed by some bouts of pain coming from its back.
Squeal! Grunt! Grunt!
It suddenly cried loudly as it kicks up a fuss while thrashing around the area.
Han Jin did not have a choice but to hold tight as he plastered his body to the warthog.
He did not hesitate to grab another snake-tooth knife and with all his might stabs it on the warthog's back.
This time the warthog seems to panic as it continues thrashing.
But the human on top of it continues on stabbing its back making it feel extreme pain.
Like riding a bull, Han Jin held on to the longest snake-tooth knife while he uses his other hand to continue wounding the beast.
Soon, he could feel its wild and ferocious actions becoming sluggish.
But he did not stop stabbing the beast as he knew that if he stops, then he would surely die. That is what is in his mind right now as he is also feeling a pang of pain on his body due to the sharp hair on the warthog's back.
Those furs are like needles pricking his skin and body. But he held on even though he could feel his blood flowing out of his own wounds. Plus the impact of the rampaging of the beast is once again making his already healed bone began to crack.
20 minutes later…
Han Jin is lying helplessly on top of the already collapsed warthog as he waited for its heartbeat to stop. With all his might, he suddenly moved the longest snake-tooth knife and severed the spine of the beast below him.
He has no time to think about his own wounds as he quickly absorbed the slowly appearing wisp from the beast's body.
He needed to heal himself first before everything else.
With a slightly dazed vision and shaking figure, he let the Chi enters his body and carefully guides it to his wounds.
It did not take long before he once again felt his body warm and the pain disappearing.
Looking at the warthog, he did not hesitate to use his snake-tooth knife and tried cutting off the two tusks of the wild boar.
But to his amazement, he could not cut them off.
He decided to pry it from the root of its mouth instead. Though it would take a bit of time, he still thinks that it is the right move.
After taking the two long tusks which are the length of his arms, he showed hesitation while deciding to cut one of the warthog's legs.
He did not know when a beast would appear, but he needs to take his prize first.
Han Jin knew that he has no time, so while cutting a leg… he is also absorbing the Chi in the air which is half the size of what he got from the snake.
It did not take long before he is able to finally finish absorbing which gives him a total of 5 balls of Chi. Stunned at getting such a harvest, Han Jin suddenly noticed that the color of Chi wisp is actually different.
He was confused at this scene as no information appears on his mind except for the carcass in front of him.
It showed that the warthog has a good hide and is good for food.
But the main reason why he takes its tusks first is that… the information in his mind tells him that it could be crafted into a C-grade weapon.
Suddenly, Han Jin's ears prick up as he quickly runs away from the location already with his loot on hand.
He just retraces the scene of destruction and soon arrives back at the tree he was in. As soon as he arrives at that location, he noticed something strange.
The monkey-like creatures are actually surroundings his backpack which is tied atop the tree.
With an annoyed expression, he suddenly ran towards the tree which startled the monkeys as they glared at him.
Then they all once again picks up stones in their hands and threw them at him.
Han Jin quickly uses the boar's leg to block the stone aimed at him as his eyes squinted.
He knew that it would be hard to get his backpack now that those monkeys are in there. But that did not mean it is impossible to get it.
Grabbing a snake-tooth knife from his back, he suddenly threw it towards the monkeys which startled them as they scampered with quick agility.
They all look at the human below them and seem to have laughed as he missed them.
But a slight smirk appears on Han Jin's mouth as he is already running in a certain direction. Before the monkeys' eyes, he caught the falling backpack and ran towards the thick thickets away from the stupefied monkeys.
Han Jin could hear the sound of shrieking from afar as his figure darted through the thickets away from that area.
On the way, he would grab some leaves to wrap the warthog's leg before putting it inside the backpack. He also put the two tusks of the warthog inside his backpack just to make sure.
His eyes are all over the place while one piece of information after another pops out of his mind. He soon arrives in a large tree with strange roots.
When he saw that, he knew that it is a good place to hide for a while. His mind displays that the tree is actually a good material for crafting which also elated him for a bit.
Without hesitation, he quickly takes out his longest snake-tooth knife and began digging on the ground beside the tree.
He would often look around while digging and soon was able to dig a hole enough for him to fit in.
He first put the backpack inside the hole as he followed suit.
Once inside, he quickly covered the hold with some of the dried branches on the side.
After that arduous work, Han Jin slumps on the ground and felt his nerve slowly relax.
"That was really intense…" he muttered to himself as he checked his surroundings.
"This place is a bit cramped, but it will do…" he muttered.
He checked the wall that he is leaning on and noticed that it is actually a part of the tree trunk. With the tree roots above him acting like a roof, he is actually on the shallow part of the intricate roots of this strange tree.
According to the lessons he had before, this place is like a sanctuary. If one could find one, then one could use such a place as a temporary base.
This is because no animal would dare enter this place within 20 meters. Not unless an animal is provoked, then they would not approach the tree.
As he recalled this and saw the information in his mind, he knew that he actually found a strange tree according to the story of his teacher.
But of course, everything he heard is only a story. How safe it actually is, Han Jin is seeing it right now with nervous attention.
