Narrator's POV

It has been three week since Brad had arrived here in this unforgiving Jungle in the middle of nowhere where giant beast lay dormant as well as large insects crawls about on the Jungle floor. For the past few weeks Brad has reacclimated himself after days of self torture in eating the Wyvern meat which had brought great effects on his body.

Now Brad looked at the reflection of him from his from camera, thankfully the Solar Lamp has a USB port and a cord which the phone could use to charge, though not that fast as it would take about ten hours for it to be fully charged.

His days were spent trying to find the trick in making something out of the stones he had brought in and he has great success so far in making arrow heads which made him able to make about a hundred and fifty of them the past few days. First tool he built was a hoe, then a pick axe which he thought might be important because kids on youtube appear to like using it.

But something is bothering him right now as he needed sonething that would be very vital for the tool he is going to make. It was Glue, the one that looked like a black blob which you could use for torches and sticking the stone in wodden shafts better.

Using vines wouldn't make the tool to last and right now Brad is only left with about fifty kilos of meat which even today he still found delicious and could already enjoy without steaming up then splurt out sludge. All that comes out is murky sweat now and he hopes it would be clear the few meals ahead.

But right now Brad is remembering how to make that glue, first thing is he must have animal fat or tallow, a small pot and some sap from the trees. Brad saw many solidified sap on the trees outside and right now he is confident facing against the small critters now. Getting the Daddy-body was a real treat for Brad as he can't get enough of the streamlined muscles bulging like they have life of their own.

Not to bulky and not to thin, his height also increased as he felt like he gained at least two inches in height. Best of this all is that his mini-'me' has also gained length and girth. Smiles were plastered on Brads face as he try to think of all the positives he had gained.

Trying to forget about his past is quite easy for most parts as he didn't have much of a fond memeory of it until his time with his brothers in the military. But enough about the past, now Brad must go out and venture to gather needed materials and he brought with him the Glaring Pole to deter the animals and Robert's replica hammer.

Swinging this thing made him feel like his strength also increased as he carried the hammer like it was made of foam. He realized this world has so many to offer as he comes out of the cave after pushing the boulder aside. He had made a log door too incase some small animals try to go inside the cave if he left the boulder ajar.

At least with this he could leave the boulder at the side while the Door made of thick logs act as the gate that'll stop invaders in his humble domicile. He looked around and saw no signs of the Coyotes or any dangerous animals in the vicinity.

He walked out wearing the Night's watch leather armor, Khaki pants tucked inside his Military boots, pauldrons from his Garen cosplay from LOL, Robert's Hammer, The Glaring staff strapped behind his back, his Army knife strapped on his right leg, the revolver placed in a holster on his waist, various throwing knives on his chest, Gimli's helmet, a large backpack, Batman utility belt with medical equipment (knitting gear) and Fix-it Felix's gloves.

He might feel strong and great but the Wyvern that popped like a balloon in an instant says otherwise that he is one of the weakest beigns in this forest. He trudged as he went Ranger style silent as he avoided lighted areas and sticked on the shaded ones as he walked silently. He was now near a Tree with mark still left from the battle of the two giants.

He carefully placed his hammer as he reached for the bag then opened it as he pried the dried sap and filled his bag carefully so now animals would be alerted. He made sure to take a bath before coming out and choose to air out the clothes and boots so he would have so little of a scent left behind. He saw various herbs and fungi growing near the tree so he decided to get them all.

He also saw a ganoderma looking fungi on a dead log nearby, he seemed to remember that the Native Americans use this kind of fungi as some kind of fuel for torches. He felt this would be useful as it was said to act also as an insecticide, mosquitoes still exist in this world and they are annoying even if they don't bite him during sleep but the buzzing sounds makes him crazy every night.

This might help him in sleeping so he picked it up and stashed it away. Brad continued to explore around the area as he found something he remembered that bearded guy on tiktok talk about. Old man's beard or Usnea, a very useful herb that could be used for curing fever, colds or coughs and is a very good medicine for healing. This thing is very abundant around as he looked everywhere.

But first he must find a way to make alchohol which he had research thoroughly before. But first he must be able to get metal to forge, which somehow he also knew cause he was bored and paid attention when watching youtube videos of men making stuff in the forest. He really thanked himself in indulging to his boredom or else he would have no idea how to live his life.

Until he could build his own swimming pool inside the cave he must work hard in gathering all the items he needed. Remebering the underground cave network he knew there would be lots of metal to be found but he must have durable tools first before doing that. Brad continued in getting some usnea and dried sap in which he almost filled his bag full.

*Crack*

Brad ducked in cover immediately as he hid behind a bush with lots of shade in it. He looked around and saw something amazing. It was a singular of boars that looked like the size of mini vans, they were about thirty or fourty of them gathered in a clearing as he peeked behind the bushes. Brad decided to go back as he felt that he would be crushed should the boars stampede over him.

He carefully tracked back without making a sound as he hid inside the shadows, thankfully the wind was quite upwind so his scent would not arrive towards the singular. As he was far enough Brad loosened his gaurd seeing nothing present aroung him, checked the contents of his bag and felt this would be enough in making a good amount of glue.

Brad smile as he saw the various herbs inside, some might look familiar but he couldn't risk going blindly in testing these. Brad looked around again and saw a small open field ten meter away from him that seems to have small flowers. He walked carefully to see clearly and recognized what flower that was.

"Jackpot!"
