Chapter 5 In The Forest
?Nikol felt his mind floating without any sensation for a few minutes. It was a really strange feeling to experience.
"Ugh~ Where am I?" He looked around the unusual forest, he was lying down on the beach with his wet clothes from the ship.
"I fell from the ship, then I lost my consciousness, I can't remember anything from there onward," He thought trying to remember what happened to him.
He had this strange sensation of remembering someone important to him but at the same time, he was getting a huge headache when he tried to do that.
"Sister, where's she? If I got here, that means did something happens to her or is she okay?" The questions in his mind didn't stop popping.
"This is why I dislike the ocean, I shouldn't have tried to act brave and do something I'm afraid of," He thought while getting up from the sandy beach.
His clothes were wet and filled with sand, felt highly uncomfortable moving around like this. Nikol quickly wiped off the extra sand from his body and searched around for anything helpful.
He didn't want to enter the forest suddenly because he had no idea where he was right now.
"Looks like an Island, do I have to go inside, I kind of feel thirsty," He took a broken branch which was near the entry of the forest and decided to find some fruits and water to survive.
Nikol had a good experience with camping and hiking in the forest when he was in high school, and he didn't feel much uncomfortable in the forest.
"These plants look different somehow, and these fruits I have never seen them in my life," He thought while trying to pluck some orange colour fruit which looked like berries.
He didn't expect to find the most creepiest thing near a bunch of berries. Just as he was about to pluck them, a giant spider came out from a big hole.
"Arghhh~" He couldn't help but shout looking at its creepy nature and sound. It had many legs with some sticky hair and its head looked like a small coconut.
He reflexively tried to throw his branch at it but, something unexpected happen when he did that. His throw was so fast that it broke one of the spider's legs into two pieces.
"What the hell? How could I do that?" He was confused about it and at the same time, he felt excited to see his magnificent throw breaking one of its legs.
Since he didn't have anything he could throw at it, Nikol decided to run until he find a stone or some branch again.
The forest he was running through was so beautiful and it had so many fruits and flowers of different kinds. He could have enjoyed all this beautiful scenery, if not for this creepy-looking spider.
It followed him like it had some grudge against him. Nikol didn't expect it to shoot cob webs at him but somehow his body movements were so fast that, he was able to dodge it.
This kept happening until he saw that monster getting stabbed by so many arrows at the same time. He wanted to wait and look but, his instinct told him to hide because it might be another creepy creature or some man-eating monster.
He quickly hid near a tree and looked at the pity-looking spider who was pierced with dozens of spears or arrows. Nikol's attention was quickly driven to the people who appeared from the shadows of the trees.
"Hahh~ What the hell?" He couldn't help but gasp at the scenery in front of him.
A bunch of half-naked women kept attacking the spider to make sure it was dead but it wasn't the spider that took Nikol's attention, it was their clothes.
All of them were half naked wearing revealing clothes which emphasised their curves and private places.
"Are they tribe people? Unbelievable to think, that people like this exist," Nikol thought while trying to take a closer look at their beautiful faces.
He wanted to talk with these people but, Nikol wasn't sure whether it was a good idea since he heard some tribes like to do cannibalism, so if they are like that, his life would be in danger if
Just as he was about to leave this place and find a safe place to hide, he felt something touching his neck. He felt a pair of soft mounds hitting his back with two small tips.
"Stop! Who are you? Which tribe are you from? Why are you spying on us?" She kept questioning him keeping her dagger on his neck.
Nikol didn't know how he was able to understand their language but, he understood what she said.
"Wait! Wait! Don't kill me, I don't taste good, you might as well eat that spider, it might taste better than me," Nikol felt chills imagining his body grilling on a campfire with an apple stuck in his mouth.
"What are you talking about?" She didn't understand what he was talking about. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
"Which tribe are you from? You don't look like you're from Kano," She kept questioning him.
"I'm not from a tribe, I was alone until now," Nikol wanted to take the chance and run but, with a dagger on his neck it was hard for him.
"Never heard! Humans don't live alone, who are you?" She didn't want to believe his words.
This commotion here attracted all the other comrades of her. There were about a dozen of them looking at Nikol with interest.
"Hey! Hey! Look she's one of us, but why does she look different?"
"She looks really beautiful for some reason,"
"Big sister Alva, can we keep her?"
[A/N : Sometimes people might refer to him as 'she' because the concept of male doesn't exist in this place]
They were talking among themselves looking at Nikol curiously. All of them were half-naked and beautiful that, if Nikol hadn't worn his underwear his boner would have been an obvious sight for all of them.
"No, we don't know her, I'll take her to the village chief, she will decide what to do with her," Alva said looking at them.
"Bind his hands, If he tries to run shoot him with arrows," Alva gave the order and removed her dagger from his neck.
Until now Nikol couldn't see her face because she was behind him the whole time. Nikol felt his heartbeat rising while looking at her. Without a doubt, she was the most beautiful girl in this group.
Alva had blonde hair which was long and fluffy looking. Her curvaceous and shiny body was a sight to drool on for any man. Even though they were living like a tribe people, her body was fairly clean and had no blemishes or marks except some cut marks.
Nikol wanted to keep admiring her but, they didn't allow him to do that. They quickly use a rope to bind his hand so that he won't be able to move.
"Don't do anything stupid, follow me" Alva had an unwavering attitude.
Others were carrying the big spider, they hunted using something like a bed and gossiped about me. Nikol was interested in their talking but I first had to analyse the situation.
"Are they going to kill me?" It was the main question Nikol had in his mind. He didn't want to be food even to these cute-looking girls.
Nikol tried to break the rope using his power but surprisingly it was easy. Nikol remembered how he easily pierced the spider with a branch.
He wanted to quickly break this rope and leave but, it was better to wait and see what was going to happen because even for him it will be hard to survive in the forest all alone until a rescue boat appears.
If they try to eat him, Nikol decided to run as fast as he can.
Alva was silently observing him and the environment around her sharply. She looked like the leader of this group because the others were mainly easy-going and friendly, unlike Alva.
Even though they didn't talk with him, he heard their bickering about how they caught him but for some reason, nobody talked about eating me so he felt really happy not hearing that.
They walked for a few minutes until Nikol started to feel extremely thirsty without water.
"Please give me water," They didn't notice that he was thirsty until he said that.
Alva looked at him with an unfocused gaze and quickly took her gourd and poured some water into his mouth. Nikol felt his body getting refreshed with a bit of water.
"Thank you, you're kind girl," Nikol was feeling grateful for her.
She didn't reply to him but, Nikol saw she had a little smile on her face after he said, his thanks to her.
They continued their journey until Nikol saw a big wall guarded by some women. He expected something like a tent but he was truly surprised by this spectacle.
"What the hell is this place?" He couldn't help but ask Alva.
"This our village Ron tribe, you're going to meet our chief now, so don't say anything unwanted," She kept reminding him about it.
Nikol thought they were some kind of tribe people according to their clothes but, he didn't expect to see some proper houses and walls. It wasn't to the point that can be called it was modern but it had some quality in it. It was like some houses in the medieval age.
Another thing in this village didn't sit right with him. He looked around searching for it when he entered the city but, he couldn't find what he searched for. In the end, he decided to ask from Alva.
"Where are the men in this village?"
