The Storm Is Brewing (part 3)

In the dark forest on the deep jungle, Basuka was traveling at a steady speed to collect honey and make money selling it to the city, for many people dark forest is like a mysterious forest but it is like a home for Basuka.

It's because Basuka when Basuka was ten years he was left here by his father it's because his mother died from an unknown disease and his father naturally like any another had found other women, but she accepted him on the condition that he would leave his son.

So one day his father brought him to outskirts of the forest to play and said go on I'll be right behind you but he never was.

Basuka on that tender age never really understood what happened, it's a miracle how he still managed to be alive. He picked up how to survive on this forest without anyone telling it's like nature took care as it was.

Basuka then gradually got familiar with hideouts of beasts which areas are dangerous which fruit or mushroom is poisonous and which is not.

Then on one final day, he got out of the jungle he then on his gone to confront his dad but seeing his father playing with two baby toddlers in front of him.

He just couldn't say anything to him, Basuka couldn't say anything to his father anymore so he just left that he cried like a baby wanting for attention.

But that's all past now, now he's considered to be the only specialist who knows the in and outs of the jungle, his reputation is so great that even the black hell organization can't do anything since they need his help. Since even they didn't have enough knowledge of dark forest greater than Basuka.

Basuka was humming some tunes he was very happy since he just got enough money to visit a brothel he was snickering to himself on how he will ravage women there "fufufu" he said as he walked along the dark forest.

As he walked along the forest he saw a body of a young child lying there unconscious, first, he thought the boy was dead maybe attacked by beasts or ... humans Basuka doesn't differentiate between two of them.

He thinks humans are a just intelligent version of beasts that prey upon other species and each other if necessary.

he walked up to the boy and tried to check his pulse but seeing him suddenly twitch and move he backed up a little bit.

"Ho boy you okay?" Basuka watching him from the distance, that boy woke up and looked at Basuka he stared blankly for a second then he pinched his cheek then he muttered to himself "It's real It's really real? excuse me sir are you really real?"

"You goddamn right! I am real" Basuka said as he posed to Chen Yang. Chen Yang couldn't control himself and made a run towards Basuka and hugged him.

"Thank you very much, sir! I owe a lot to you, please get me out of here please" Chen Yang said Basuka sighed and took a pity on the young boy as he thought about himself in the past.

Basuka took a pose with his fingers pointed at Chen Yang and said "follow me, young man, as soon I was finished with my business I will leave you at your home fufufu " then Basuka asked another question of his whereabouts Chen Yang answered truthfully.

Basuka was just cruising through the forest even though Chen Yang was faster but he'd anywhere and everywhere but Basuka he stops every 10 minutes check something then continue on.

Chen Yang could easily figure out Basuka was an expert navigator based on just this. Breaking the silence Basuka said, " 12 days ago there has been huge fighting between Nine headed serpent and 8 tails fox it seems neither survived the entire region was volatile you were lucky that I found you."

Chen Yang agreed and he was straining his eyes to look closer than he saw that they came close to the nest.

He gulped as he hasn't eaten anything for 14 days.

" Shh. fufufu now watch me" and he handed him a branch of a tree it was dry and said "try to warn me if there are any beasts nearby by breaking branch remember don't shout It will anger the beasts more fufufu," said Basuka

Chen Yang nodded and tried to hide in the tree and acted as a support for Basuka he like experienced hunter took a dry tree twig and put some lotion on it.

To Chen Yang surprise all the bees buzzing around the nest started to go towards that twig like they were hypnotized.

Basuka then slowly and silently climbed up the tree and took a bag and a knife slowly took his time to slice every piece of nectar into the bag but he left some honey around the edges for some reason.

then calmly slid down the tree and he and Chen Yang left seeing the doubt on Chen Yang eyes Basuka smiled and said

" fufufu the lotion I put on the twig of the tree it's an aphrodisiac it attracted bees to mate and I left some honey in the tree because if there is no honey left then bees may go and make another nest so you need to leave some honey on so that you may come back later fufufu"

"wow, you're so intelligent uncle," Chen Yang said Basuka eyes twitched "Hmpf call me Basuka bro you squinty-eyed brat"

Suddenly there was a rustle in the forest Chen Yang just jumped right back watched carefully

*Meow*

Chen Yang sighed a breath of relief, it was just a cat then he looked admirably at Basuka he didn't even move from his path what a hero, he genuinely admired Basuka

" wow, you didn't even move Basuka bro."

then an answer came a little while after "fufufu of course little bastard who will be afraid of cats in the jungle " said Basuka

but on the inside ' wheew that almost scared the shit out of me be brave basuka be brave' he thought to himself.

Due to the fact he had grown up on the dark forest alone, everyone seems to regard him as a super strong individual even the black hell organization,

but in truth, he was just slightly more strong than an average human and in truth, he was a coward that's why he was able to survive so much in this dark forest but since it seems that the rumor is doing more good to him than bad he continued without telling anyone.

MEANWHILE ON SOME KINGDOM AT A RESTAURANT FOURTH LEVEL

The eyebrow-less elder was saying

" as you know we need allies to overthrow the ten major clans do we already gathered some allies like the Xia kingdom king and serpent world's wealthiest merchant Lu Bao do you know anyone like that?"

Silence remained there for a second before many names sprang afloat then the scholar like elder put on a very serious expression and said " I heard from our subordinates in the black hell organization that there is a more dangerous beast in the dark forest.

The eyebrow-less elder replied by saying " Basauka huh? he's an untamed beast he's best left alone.
