Chapter 27: A rotting corpse

At the foot of a majestic mountain with a sharp peak, several lights rose and intensified, and each time his reflection could be seen from the stone cliffs, the soil was washed away from the mountain and several areas could be seen robbed of it.

Crack crack"

Huge amounts of rain fell on this mountain standing in the middle of the forest, taller than the other mountains. With this huge size, lightning bolts fell from inside the clouds the size of huge fingers from the sky.

From the top it can be seen that there is a fierce battle between the mountain and the sky. The two disasters collided with each other and it was not possible to see what was inside the mountain.

Sooooo"

As if the space between them had been penetrated, a mysterious humanoid figure four meters tall appeared. The feet of this mysterious figure stepped quickly and left multiple images behind it. What could be observed was that every time this mysterious figure advanced, the bottom of his feet glowed without a trace on the mud from the rain.

This mysterious figure was mysteriously evading approaches to the trees, it was understandable that he was aware of the extreme unsafety if he chose to take a shortcut from inside the forest.

Crack ...crack"

Light exploded from the sky onto the mountain suddenly, and it was heavy and cunning in its strikes. At this moment, the thunderlight from the lightning bolts was reflected on the body of the mysterious being, and half of its lower form appeared. There was a white tail swaying like a snake at its back. Leather pants were torn, revealing several scars on it. His legs resembled the feet of a wild predatory animal.

This predator was in the middle of hunting its prey, all of a sudden. He stopped and felt a terrible feeling coming from the sky. He had lived most of his life in constant predation and hunting. He was a hunter who could only be said to be capable in all situations. His constant ability to hunt his prey made him develop the ability of his senses to its peak.

It did not go against his feelings, he trusted himself more than anything else. Without hesitation, the monstrous being activated his mana essence and placed his prey, which was larger than him, on his shoulders.

Run away!

Even before it reached its cold lair, the creature found that its sensation was constantly doubled, and it increased its speed even more than the original.

'There were lightning bolts in the middle of every night and this was not uncommon, but this day became dark in the middle of the day and the lightning bolts began to fall more than the rain. What an anger from the sky,' thought the creature, not daring to slow down its speed.

This mountain was close to the sky, and it was not strange for snow, rain, and lightning to fall on it. This lone hunter lived inside these disasters and was able to adapt to them.

He was a capable hunter!

'Hmm, this feeling..-eh', the sound of the being's thoughts was suddenly shocked by what he had received. His senses were refined to their peak, and even if he was far away from this divine scent, his senses would not fail him in capturing it.

Without hesitation, the wild animal changed its direction, and in several steps moved towards the location of this scent that filled the place inside its consciousness.

"H-That, there is no doubt...", the being could no longer suppress his thoughts and began to mutter. Several lights were reflecting through his sharp cat-like pupils, and the image of what he saw appeared in front of him from them.

Before his eyes was a corpse in the form of a human, exuding a scent that intoxicated his senses.

It was the smell of blood!

What was most evident on this lying corpse was that it had long hair.

"This scent, I-I really have it, is this my lucky day!" The mysterious figure cocked its head towards him, yet as a capable hunter this animal could tell many things.

What caught his attention the most was the essence aura that was damaged and seeping from this corpse.

The animal's feet glowed with a golden color and it moved towards this figure in front of it, its gaze moving up and down several times.

Suddenly his sharp gaze became less blazing and he bent his legs and lowered his body to his knees, 'This, he is truly human and more than that he is an ordinary human, but what's with this rot on him?' The being looked up and his gaze moved in several colors, 'This place is far from reality.' Humanity has no human beings, like this mountainside is very dangerous, and humans were not a species that could climb it.' He glanced at the corpse in front of him with interest and moved forward and began to explore the surroundings with an interested look. 'No, there was no trace of fighting here, the relics there were only traces. Bare feet, it seems that this human came up here this way.' Lou took a few steps and met his gaze with the sloping mountain view.

This mountain was comprehensively known for its dangerous warnings, it did not contain any amount of life, all the beings that could survive here possessed rare Mana Essences.

Most of them were like this savage, races of half-beasts of various races.

'This human, he was not running away, and also his footsteps were interrupted within a few metres. I have never heard of such skill. It is unbelievable. Could this human be of an ancient race..', the being thought with his sharp gaze. He had a predatory nature. Without much information to identify its prey, it lost its taste a lot.

If this human was truly an ancient race, then this is a completely different matter. Unusually, savage races were hostile to humans from the very beginning.

However, this savage was patient and did not care. He was trying to analyze the reasons for the presence of a human being lying here. What made him even more confusing was that the steps of this human being were only interrupted within a few meters.

It was strange!

This only meant one thing. This human had fallen from the sky. 'No, this is not an option. His body would not be able to withstand such damage, and the irritating mountain atmosphere would not help him either. Is it possible...he made the transition?' The brute's eyes were lighting up. It keeps going off like a broken light.

The branches of the trees extended like evil hands within the wind swayed, and the lightning light that fell like pillars of light made the shape of the mountain clearly visible every time.

From its sharp peak that dominates half an areaThe place, the trees were forming circular forests around it like an old ring.

"Ah, how long has it been since I've met a human, and now... Ah, I can't remember anymore." Standing next to the corpse that had left him puzzled, the brute lowered his massive body that was four meters tall and his figure gradually began to appear under the lightning light.

His face was like that of a cat, with a circle of hair around it. His pupils were sharp like daggers, and his thick eyelashes gave him the appearance of a cross between a cat and a lion. On his shoulders was the broad carcass of a beast, whose double horns were prominent.

The savage extended his wide hand around the human and immediately carried him on his other shoulder. His gaze was ambiguous, 'To help beings of the human race, it seems that I have also become a traitor to you, my king,' thought the savage, and a few dull emotions passed through his sharp heart.

In fact, the savage was no longer even able to remember his past in the form of images. He only remembered the previous beliefs that had been firmly established inside his mind slightly.

But it's not my fault." This savage has lived in fits and starts since he escaped the deadly claws of death. Periods passed, gradually forgetting who he was.

Inside this huge mountain, the savage no longer needed to stress himself over anything and isolated himself.

And unleash his honest nature!

Finally, he decided to create a refuge for himself from the darkness of this world.

"Sooooot"

As the savage had discovered his prey before, he moved without hesitation and headed toward his hidden lair inside the mountain.

Everyone tends to escape from rules and laws because that makes them unfamiliar with themselves. The savage had such a nature. 'My king, it is a pity that every being in the end has its own destination and cannot follow two paths. I hope this human being also has a destination.' The savage thought and felt Sharp with the essence of a corpse on his shoulder, which was constantly weakening.

I will save your life, so in return you can guide mine!
