Blood Sun

Six seconds later, my strings secured the plant. I gave it a gentle pull, and it came out a little before disappearing into my core.

The moment I did, I turned and ran toward the exit of the lake. I could feel the relief in the Red Bear Beastman's eyes.

Well, he didn't have to feel relief yet; he is very much in danger. To heal from it, he will have to eat the same flower he is harvesting.

I don't care what happens to him. I have my problems to worry about.

People outside of the lake are looking at me with clear hunger in their eyes.

There are five Peak Sovereigns there, but I am most worried about half-elf, who is looking at me with a smile. There is a hunger for battle in his eyes and I hope it is not for me.

Thud!

I got out of the lake and immediately, those Five Peak Sovereigns moved toward me.
