Chapter 26: A Hint to the Past

Slowly, I opened my eyes. It took me a while to remember where I was, but then I cleared my thoughts and remembered what had happened. Still, my body was aching, but not that bad. I was stunned when I saw what was happening.

"Fuck!! How did this happen?"

I can see a tree in front of me mowed over by a truck. Did I cause this? It scared me when I realized how powerful I was. I asked Eve, just to be sure.

"Eve, what happened here?"

"Because the body of the Host had a high momentum, the tree was destroyed."

It dumbfounded me

Did my body destroy it? What if I was destroyed? Fuck, that was risky.

"Eve, I asked you about its side effect, right?"

"Host, this condition is not a side effect; your inability to use the power caused it."

Now I am tongue-tied, anyway I can't do anything about it but you can see the awesomeness of my body. Fuck, it even destroyed the tree; let's see who gets in my way.

Now all I have to do is level up and leave this fucking jungle. I'm glad no one came while I was unconscious.

This is how I started my journey of leaving this jungle. I can't wait to leave this jungle behind. My only concern is my loss of hair; I shouldn't become bald.

...............

While Alan was preparing to leave this jungle, plans were in motion for Alan to leave this world.

An unknown figure appeared suddenly on a distant planet, frowning and looking around.

"Where the fuck is he now?" he muttered

Sensing the location of the person again, he again disappeared before appearing in front of a volcano. His body reacted negatively to being near this volcano.

'Zuro, come out now !!' his voice was loud and sounded urgent.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the figure. It looked like a burly man with lava covering his body. The lava slowly disappeared, and you can see he appears to be a Human with a bald head and no hair on his face. He was wearing some kind of skintight red bodysuit.

"Baras!!!! Who lit up your dark cave?" Zuro joked.

"I don't have time for this bullshit, let's leave now," Baras told Zuro

"Ok...Ok"

Both disappeared and appeared in front of an enormous building. Then Baras followed Zuro inside.

Zuro appeared to be preparing drinks inside a room when he asked Baras.

"It has been how many years since you met me, Baras?" You are looking uncomfortable."

"Situation is quite urgent," Baras voiced out urgently.

"Can you explain it clearly?" Zuro asked impatiently.

"Lucia!" Baras exclaimed

Zuro got rooted on the spot. He even stopped preparing the drink for a while. He turned around and asked nervously.

"What happened to her?"

"She is out. Ramos told me," Baras said.

"Ramos?" Zuro asked with a skeptical look.

Baras replied, "Yeah, and his game led to it."

"I can't understand why she's out,"

Baras sighed and said, "She saved somebody.".

It is hard for Zuro to believe what he heard this time. There was an anxious look on his face; well, the news was too big to be true. Lucia won't save anyone until it's him.

"Are you sure it was Lucia?" Zuro inquired hurriedly.

"She interfered with his connection with this person," Baras said.

Zuro sighed ." It seems like yesterday that she had destroyed half of the universe because of him, and many of us also perished. Well, I can't blame her as well. She trusted us," Zuro said with a look of remembrance.

"What will you do with him? If that's the case, we are definitely going to be in a bind," Baras enquired.

"Nothing. Anyway, I opposed that idea last time, but somehow got involved, and this time I won't get involved, and one more thing, Ramos' entire reason for starting this game is because of the prophecy — and I am still regretting doing so last time."

"Aren't you afraid of what might happen to you? He'll certainly come after you," Baras demanded impatiently.

Laughing, Zuro replied, "Let him be. I will see when he comes. What are you going to do? Does that Guy know?".

"No, I still have to meet him. It was his idea after all." Baras got up to leave. He wasn't sure whether to tell that man

It all started with the journey of the gods to explore the unknown, and it ended badly.
