A week and a half have passed since wen jun was rescued by Tiana and Titan. He have been waiting for some carriage that will come every two weeks or so to retrieve the weapon crafted in this village to the city. He was planning to hitch a ride there and if he need to pay then he will just pay of course.
.
While waiting, wen jun have been helping titan out with work and such as he have nothing to do during his spare time.
He actually wants to practice the ability to control blood that he saw his body do before but there's no place that he can practice in private in the village so he have to put that on hold.
.
Wen jun have been meeting the villagers of Tamon village a lot recently during his delivery of the special wood so he got closer to the villagers as well.
The Tamon village looks like a mushroom village to be honest. every single house in the village looks like the mushroom house from the smurfs except it's not as bright in color. Instead, the whole village was filled with dark blue colors houses and was also surrounded by dark blue trees with of course a loud clanging and smokes coming out of the chimney non stopping.
.
On a normal delivery day, a loud sound of panic was heard around the small village.
Big News! Big News!
"The purple kong one of the three overlords have died mysteriously! the other two overlords are fighting for the right on who can have more share of the purple kong territory. There's a high chance that some lower magic beast will come on a stampede!" A boy shout in a panic tone
.
[ A/N: Magical beasts are creatures that have a magic core inside of their body just like the purple kong from before. The beast race is a race that have a body similar to human but have the face of animals instead and have the ability of that animal, beastman is basically Human face that have the traits of animals ]
.
The whole village gathers at the boy who was telling the news. All of them were panicking and keep flooding the boy with questions like "how long do we have left till the stampede come?" and "how did the purple kong die so suddenly?" and such.
.
Wen Jun who was listening from afar while holding a basket full of cut logs was a bit panic as well.
" Purple kong? Is that the ape that I killed before? No way right? It can't be. The ape might just coincidentally have the same color as the recently deceased forest overlord. Yup, that's must be it! " He thought as he look at those villagers who was in a state of panic
.
" I- I don't know the demon knights only said that the Purple Kong body have a huge hole in it and behind the purple kong body. A row of the hard cyan soul tree was left with holes in it like some sort of huge pillar pierce them. "
" Oh, my demi-god! The cyan soul tree got pierced and it's a whole row. Only a being of great strength that could wipe out a whole town with ease like the forest overlord could do something like breaking a tree that hard " one of the villagers exclaimed
.
Wen jun start to sweat when he heard that sentence. He knew now that the Ape he killed is probably the so-called purple kong that have caused all this fuse. The hole that he made on those cyan color trees when he was losing control of his body was enough proof for him.
.
As wen jun was panic thinking. An old man come near the crowd.
.
" Is what you saying true Jamo? "
.
It was the village chief and also the best blacksmith in the whole village, Jamo the hand of God.
He was one of the well-known blacksmiths of this world and respected by many for his amazing creation and his craftsmanship skills.
.
With a serious face, he look at the boy who seems to sweat a lot running to the village to deliver the news. The boy just looks back at him while nodding his head with his expression looking a bit terrified.
.
" Jamo pack all of your important belongings and immediately gather in front of the village gate. Tell everybody that is not here about this. That's an order Jamo! " He said with a serious expression on his face.
.
Wen jun then returned to old man titan house and inform him about what happened in the village just now. Old man titan house may be a part of the village but his house is located on a tiny hill so there is some distance between the house and the village.
.
When listening to the news old man's titan jaw was dropping from his mouth. He seems very shock by the sudden news and immediately rushes towards Tiana who was sleeping under a tree to wake her up and told her to pack her stuff.
He was fast in packing and Tiana who doesn't know what's happening just follow old man titan words.
.
Wen jun who have no luggage just stay outside waiting for the pair of two to finish up packing their stuff.
After they have done with packing. Bringing a few belongings that are wrapped in some sort of cloth. The three then rush to the village gate and were lining up with the rest of the crowd.
.
" Listen up! The demon knights will escort us to a safe zone. There we will have accommodation for everybody so there's no need to panic too much Jamo." Jamo announced
.
The blacksmith village are a village full of talented blacksmith which is an important asset to the demon army. That is the reason why they mobilize a few high-ranking bodyguards to make sure the safety of the blacksmith.
.
There are less than a hundred villagers so the relocation is a bit smoother and not as hard as a big relocation.
The journey was pretty great with no danger whatsoever so far. although it will take at least three days to reach the safe zone by foot. the people of the village have very crazy stamina so it is estimated that it might just take two days instead.
.
Wen jun followed them on their journey to the safe zone. Although he actually told titan that he will go the opposite way towards the city. Titan insists on him following them to the safe zone because the journey to the city will be much harsher and he also uses wen jun injury that already healed to keep forcing wen jun to go with them. Tiana also keeps looking at wen jun with begging eyes.
.
There's no harm in titan and Tiana's intention and wen jun could see that. The old man and the little one simply worried that something will happen to wen jun if he goes alone to a far city during a magic beast stampede that could destroy a whole town.
.
Wen jun could only sigh and just follow the old man's words. He's a benefactor to wen jun
and he treated wen jun who is a stranger to him like a family member. So it's normal for wen jun to feel a bit attached to the pair of two.
.
Thinking that there might be a beast attack on the way wen jun thought that he might as well be able to help to guard the villagers. Even if he can't his body might be able to just do it like magic. just how it did before. wen jun thought

In the Dark Forest
" Damnit big boss kong is dead, now the other two overlords are fighting for his territory. It's all because of that white hair vampire." In anger a black gorilla said
.
" I'm going to avenge boss kong. I'm sure that vampire was still injured because he received big boss attack. I'm going to find and attack that bastard while he still hasn't recovered! "
.
That black gorilla is the right-hand man of the purple kong, A tier five magic beast. while the purple kong and the other two overlords were a tier six magic beast.
.
Magic beasts are classified with tiers. with tier one as the lowest and the higher a beast, tier is the stronger they are. Even just one level difference can be like heaven and earth if the beast fight one vs one.
.
The purple kong remembers the scent of wen jun. He didn't attack him before because wen jun aura was too much for him to handle at the time and as any normal beast they have the instinct to run away from a stronger enemy.
.
The black gorilla couldn't control his body at the time and just run by instinct and when he comes to his sense he was feeling humiliated and regretting not helping his boss before.
With revenge on his sight, he's been tracking wen jun tracks in order to get his revenge.
