Farah's POV.
After I received the map, I instantly head out to find other shelters.
-It's around here on the map. (Farah)
I utilize my nose to detect the nearby smell.
-There is much dust in this air. (Farah)
I keep sniffing for a while.
-There is also the smell of something being burned. (Farah)
I instantly realize the tree monster has gone through this place.
-I need to hurry. (Farah)
I keep looking around until I find the door leads to the second shelter.
-It's over here. (Farah)
I open the door and see many people who are lying on each other bodies. I call out to see if they are okay.
-Is everyone okay? (Farah)
-Hiiiii?
-Kiiiiii!
The people in front of me instantly turn their heads and stare at me. However, there is nothing in their eyes but hollow darkness. Some people even rotate their heads 360 degrees to look at me.
-They are not human! (Farah)
I instantly jump out of the shelter. The group of monsters that look like humans instantly follows me to go outside.
-They are tree monsters. They look more and more like a human. (Farah)
Tree monsters try to run to my side.
-Not so fast. (Farah)
I turn my hand into a paw and attack those tree monsters. I slashed the air using my paw and create terrible wind slashes that sweep through all the monsters in front of me.
-Kiiiii!
After being hit by my attack, they turn into a shattered black tree and fall to the ground. I hurriedly run back to the shelter where those monsters came from and start searching around.
-No one is alive in this shelter. (Farah)
All the people that I saw inside here have turned into tree monsters. I take out the map and read it.
-200 meters from here. (Farah)
I instantly run toward the third shelter. It doesn't take long for me to arrive at the next shelter.
-Eh? A survivor. (Farah)
I find a girl standing in front of the door leading to the shelter. I try calling out to her.
-Are you alright? (Farah)
The girl ignores my question and swings her hand at me. Her hand gradually expands and turns into a tree limb.
-Monster again? (Farah)
I dodge the girl's attack while seizing this chance to counter.
-Taste this! (Farah)
When I try to land my punch on the girl, the tree comes from the ground to protect her. Those trees are unscathed after they take full power punch of mine in this form.
-Tchhh! (Farah)
I accelerate my body and move to the place where the tree doesn't protect her.
-Human! (???)
Her left hand turns into a gigantic white tree and withstands my attack. This time, my attack successfully causes some crack on the white tree. The girl looks at me with fierce eyes.
-Human...Hateful. (???)
The crack I caused in her hand gradually disappears. She swings her hand to attack me again. The tree made from her hand quickly destroyed everything in its range.
-It's really hard to approach her now. (Farah)
I can only retreat out of her attack range and wait for a chance to attack her again. When she knows that her attack can't reach me because I stand too far from her. She stares at me and says.
-Human...Back Off. (???)
-I'm sorry, but I can't do that. (Farah)
I point at the door of the shelter and answer her.
-I need to rescue people down there. (Farah)
-Don't...Near...It. (???)
-Why? (Farah)
The girl stops answering me and returns to stare at me. This girl is different compared to the other tree monsters.
-I don't know what you are planning, but I need to save those people. (Farah)
I charged power on my feet.
-Mist, come to my side. (Farah)
The mist around me swallows my body. I seize this chance to jump into the air. I look at the girl and notice her panicking.
-Let's finish this! (Farah)
I use the tree nearby to gain momentum and jumps toward her. My body flies toward her like an arrow.
-Human...Annoying. (???)
The girl uses all of her might and kicks up her legs. A vast piece of land comes out of the ground along with her feet. If I continue to fly toward her like this, my body will slam into that land.
-What can I do in this situation? (Farah)
I feel like I can use the air as my foothold. I use it to reverse my direction in the air. The girl seems to surprise when I achieved that.
-I'm sorry. But would you mind sleeping for a moment? (Farah)
I successfully avoid her attack and land a hit on her chest. This time I have limited my power, so it won't kill her.
-I'm sorry. (Farah)
-Human... (???)
The girl faints after receiving my attack. I hug the girl's body and don't let her fall to the ground. This girl is pretty much different compare with other tree monsters. From the start, she merely wants to chase me away and doesn't let me go near the shelter.
-She can even faint like an average human. (Farah)
She isn't looking too much different from an ordinary human unless you touch her directly. You can feel her body is cold and firm when I hold her body.
-Let's have a look at this shelter now! (Farah)
