Chapitre 19: Cozy cave

"You two must stop this stupid action! ," one of the instructors said.

The two had been waiting for two days without any successful news.

This was the moment Felix's words at the orphanage echoed in their minds: "Action huh? The best action is to take self-action." This was the quote that inspired them to be what they are now.

In a swift move, Milo swung his sword at the instructor, making the instructor fly several meters away.

Shakiro, who is defending himself against the four instructors, is unable to pass through them, but if he used his skill, they would die. This was a warning Felix gave them when they were still orphans.

Milo, Shakiro, and Felix live in an orphanage; this was the reason. But why do they hold him in high regard? That is because they consider him their big brother, even with his small stature. They must help him.

"Stop this!" Elina said.

They recognise her because of Felix's action in the video where Felix saved her and watched him kiss her forehead on the bracelet's recording.

The mage bracelet has a unique feature to capture voice and video automatically, preventing the kidnapping of the mages in the academy.

Their deep respect for their future sister-in-law was evident.

Milo and Felix begin to think about what they are going to do, but they stop forcing themselves and sit on the bench, waiting for any news from Felix from the rescue team.

Steve was stopped by Sonia, and after she pulled his ear out without talking like a child Steve was stopped, she grabbed Steve into the dormitory and gave relief to the instructors.

As they looked at Steve, they found Sonia to be even more terrifying; she was just pulling his ear like a child.

"Girls are really scary! " exclaimed one of the instructors.

All of the instructors nod along, they are male after all; they know the feeling of being under a strong wife.

Two days later, Felix found himself seated in a small cave within a massive tree hollow, tirelessly working on repairing the ginger bracelet.

I kept turning the screw to fix the ginger bracelet, over and over.

"This is incredibly hard to fix, and to think it was just a dead battery! I need it to absorb sunlight tomorrow again! Sheesh! It makes me want to smash this."

I was still fixing the bracelet; it was really painful in the ass. I can only use this after charging it into the sun, but now that it has been two days, it must be charged over 10 per cent to be able to use the teleport feature.

"I need more energy." I believe it will take a few more days to recharge it and absorb sunlight.

But I can't even send any texts with the watch; it's useless. Even the tracker stopped working after it got damaged.

The transmitter is broken.

"Awooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh!" I could hear the wolves howling.

I'm scared right now, and I can't sleep well. The wolves are becoming more aggressive at night.

Not only wolves should be considered; apart from them, we encounter more tribes and ogre groups in this area. Add a group of monsters to that, alongside the wolves.

I'd better sleep; with an LED lamp and food from my storage bag, I can survive for another 8 days. It's very lucky that I've been able to last this long, providing items I usually took for granted when I was at Avalon.

*Click* off goes the LED lamp. But there's another problem: mosquitoes are really annoying.

*Clap* *clap* I slapped my thigh, shoulder, and more. Mosquito bites hurt like hell.

When I found peace to sleep using incense, the mosquitoes stopped bothering me. But I can still vividly remember after I sent my party back and was chased by an ogre. It was a terrifying experience.

*Boom* *boom* I could hear trees crashing. I ran away, throwing a smoke grenade. I didn't care what I threw, but...

"Guwaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!" I could hear the ogre roar.

I was grateful I'd gained distance from the ogre, but I could still hear the trees crashing and breaking. I thought I could finally rest, or so I hoped.

I shifted my gaze to the right; there was a river. Another group of goblins. They were camping like humans, with a bonfire, grilling fish. But suddenly, they spoke too much, like the goblins we'd encountered.

"Humaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!" A goblin spotted me and shouted.

"Whoa! Human! Get the human!" The goblins talked like humans, but they were different; they were blue goblins.

"Whoa!" I ran again; goblins are dangerous, I didn't want to get raped.

I jumped into the river without thinking. But it would be better to die than be held captive by them.

The goblins were behind me as I looked back. They weren't jumping; they were covered in the web.

"Kweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" a spider hanging from a tree branch in reverse, pulling the two goblins now. I swam, just floating in the water with its flow. I was faster, but sometimes I get hit by rocks or pieces of wood.

After probably an hour in the river, I didn't know how far I'd travelled, but my adrenaline couldn't go down. It was like I could still run far from here, but it would be better to look for the best spot to stay. I need my own nest.

I found a small cave, like inside a tree, a very cozy place for camping.

With plywood, some wood, and rope, I built a wall and a small door that I could only enter by crawling.

*Gulp* *gulp* Woah! I drank a potion, but I could still feel my hand shaking. I was really scared. I had encountered a lot of monsters today. So, that group of goblins was different from the green goblins.

"Ahhhh!" the concept of a monster tribe. It was common in games, movies, and novels that monsters had their own villages, similar to humans.

But it's better to fix the bracelet first. Without it, I can't go back.
