" Ugh, what's going on? Am I going to explode too? " Jayden shouted while tightly holding his head, his consciousness was slowly fading away and he could no longer sense his surroundings as his eyes began to glow with a purple light.
" Try to stay awake, maybe the consciousness of this tree is trying to take over your mind or whatever I don't know, cut your connection with her if you have to. " Anna spoke, her voice panicked.
"..."
Jayden could no longer hear her or speak, his eyes began to close up and he fell back, Eve returned back to being a tattoo on his arm and both of them fell unconscious.
" Jayden can you hear me? "

Anna tried calling him several times but no response came back from him, in the midst of the forest he had fallen unconscious since the tree had disappeared the surrounding demons were no longer feeling any kind of danger coming from this area, though they didn't move immediately and decided to wait a little longer since all of them possessed some level of intelligence.
Time kept passing but Jayden was not anywhere near waking up, both he and Eve were in a similar condition, since that golden seed had affected both of them in some strange ways.
After an unknown period of time, the footsteps of more than one person sounded near Jayden, then after a few minutes they arrived near him and began to discuss something amongst each other.
One of the person there approached Jayden and poked his shoulder with a stick after seeing no movements from him, that person began to check Jayden's body and then looking back at others, he shook his head.
After talking for a few more minutes they reached some kind of conclusion and one of the men in the group stepped towards the unconscious Jayden and placed him on his back, and then he began to follow the rest of the group.
The people who were left there began to clean up and properly store all the materials while checking the quality of the meat of the human and then placing it into appropriate place.
The person who walked out with the eyes, brain and heart brought them to a separate place, all the places weren't too far away from each other, after walking for around a minute he arrived in front of another room.
When he entered he arrived inside what seemed to be a temple with a big statue of a strange looking man, at first glance it was clear that this man must be a very strong warrior, over five old men and women were already present inside the temple like place.
When the man carrying the tray entered, he was called forward and in front of the statue, then he placed the tray near the feet of the statue and respectfully backed away with his head lowered.
Then all the people there began to sing something strange as the person who carried the tray danced in front of the statue, this continued for over twenty minutes then one of the woman who was singing walked forward and sat in front of the tray.
Then she placed a bowl containing some water on the ground and picked the heart, then she squeezed it over the bowl as some blood was dropped in the bowl and mixed with the water, then she placed the heart and bowl away and picked an empty plate in front of her.
Placing the brain over it, she began to cut the brain into small pieces and placed them all on the bowl, after the entire brain was divided into small pieces, she picked the heart again and placed it at one of the corners of the plate.
After bowing respectfully in front of the statue again, she picked the the plate and the bowl and placed them both on a table in front of the statue's face, the height of the statue was around 7 feet.
Then she picked up the tray containing the eyes and walked towards the statue, after which she removed the old eyes from the statue's face and instead filled the eye sockets with the new eyes.
