That's frustrating.

I thought for a while and soon found a solution.

'I've never tried to do this but I guess I should be fine thanks to my training in chakra control'

As a possessor of three chakra natures with water being one of them, he should be able to draw out all the water that wood could bring.

So without delaying any longer I put my hand on top of the wooden pillars and try to control the water.

I focus my chakra and hear a crack.

*crack* *crack*

'Damn, it's not working' When trying to get the water out, the wood that is intertwined with it doesn't want to let go.

'I must grab the wood on one side while I grab the water on the other'

This time he tried to control two chakras at the same time, the water and the wood.

Then with one hand he grabbed the wood while with the other I put the surface of my palm.

I have to say that using these two techniques separately is a bit difficult since in the course of using them I feel as if these two energies wanted to merge into one (more like mokuton energy I would say).

But this is not an impediment for the results to come out.

Indeed, as I had expected, the water comes out slowly while with the other hand I have a firm grip on the wooden trunk.

'It worked'

After a moment I finish removing all the water I can from all the logs (small wooden pillars).

'Hah, that's all, I can't get any more water out of this' There is a certain amount of water that seems to be very entwined in the trunk making it impossible to get it out without first bringing the wood with it.

'Well, never mind, this will do'

So with the logs in one hand and the bucket of water in the other I quickly go back to where I had previously fallen.

Upon arriving with the low visibility provided by those phosphorescent plants (which for some reason glow slightly) I can see that Sayuki and Rai have moved from their place.

They have stopped coughing and have gone to the walls to support their bodies.

Seeing their silhouettes in the background, I didn't bother with them anymore and I quickly put the firewood on by applying them to a bonfire.

I quickly took out a box of matches from my inventory and start learning firewood.

After a couple of tries I manage to turn it on after having created small wooden threads (dried after having extracted its water).

A yellow red light illuminates the place announcing the heat with it.

Without saying anything, the others approach the campfire.

'Although fire is a good method of keeping warm, it still doesn't change the fact that we are near a stream' Humidity spreads all over the place plus we have wet clothes.

If we follow this step we are going to get really sick.

So with this in mind I start to undress all my clothes, leaving my underwear as the last garment.

I am not afraid to do it in front of them as I know that they too will have to do something similar.

Without paying attention to their reactions, he continued to give up while he raised a stick near the fire and hung my clothes on it.

Then when I turned around, I was slightly startled by what I see.

Sayuki, like me, has not hesitated for a second and has taken off all her clothes, staying in her underwear.

I was slightly surprised to see his whole body in underwear and even felt my body hit a little but the next second my stomach started to turn a little.

A lot of insects start to cover his body like a tide.

Seeing them move almost like writhing makes me want to look at her.

So, in a bad mood because of the ruined scene, I sit around the campfire, I don't even pay attention to Rai, who has also taken off his clothes.

Ignoring all that I start to think about the previous scene.

'...just when I was drowning I remember hearing a voice, I don't remember what it said exactly but I think it was about me being weak or not worthy, I don't know, something like that, probably it's something from me internal world but since I don't fully understand it, I don't know exactly which one, maybe I should ask the butler because I'm sure this has something to do with these entities that live as a representation of my personality' With a little meditation on the matter It didn't take long to understand what these guys would be for, but what I don't understand up to now is why they exist or for what purpose, it practically doesn't make sense if they exist just like that, there must be something.

'Now that I remember myself, I saw this in a series from my previous world, if I remember correctly the protagonist is called Ichigo and inside of him he also has an internal world like mine where the entity that he carries inside is not someone common, it is the villain...' My movement stops at this thought.

'Shit, don't tell me I'm in the same situation' Look at it closely, wherever you look, this situation is very similar, internal world, guide (or something similar), power and so on.

If this situation is the same then we really are in big trouble.

Ichigo's entity was practically one of the most powerful beings in the entire history of the world of souls, if mine is also the same then don't count it because unlike Ichigo I am not some kind of protagonist with many transformations to face all that.

When I think about this, I calm down again.

'Of course how could I forget, I'm not a protagonist so why should I bother to do anything? not like I'm going to be able to do anything' With this thought I felt calm somehow.

'What a pathetic way to calm down, a feeling I hadn't remembered in many months' Many may think that if I feel this pathetic maybe I should train more or use the plot to my advantage, how easy it is to talk...
