I wasn't even sure if the big boar that had appeared had any magical powers or not. Because time for me now seems to stand still. And I try to keep my body as still as I can. even breath I also tried to breathe softly to make it sound as low as possible. But my head was filled with panic.
I tried to pray in my head as loud as I could. "Don't let it turn to me," but my prayer seemed to be in vain. Because it is almost impossible for a wild animal like this. One cannot be seen standing in the middle of the forest path.
At the moment it saw me I was immediately aware of the hostility from it. It slowly turned towards me. It allowed me to see its enormous body more clearly. Its height was no less than 2 meters from the fuzzy memories from my previous life. I knew that in my previous world such a large boar was extremely rare.
My body right now, I don't even know how tall I am. But at most it wouldn't be more than 1.6 meters. The boar in front of me was clearly taller than me. Even though it was 100 meters away, I could feel its size.
And from my memories of hearing the local forest hunters talk.Wild boars are one of the most dangerous wild animals. Although it is not a carnivore. But it's a very fast wild animal. And its special ability is to turn around in a narrow circle when running. This made it almost impossible for an ordinary person to escape from its entanglement.
To put it simply, I'm currently in a life-threatening situation.
"rustle rustle!!"
While I was using all the brainpower I had on how to survive. The bushes behind the giant boar trembled again. After just a moment, there was a baby boar. Four of them walked out of the bushes trembling at the same time.
Four young wild boars ran after their mother from the bushes along the forest path. They didn't seem to care much about their surroundings. The young wild boars were having fun playing with each other.
I am not sure if the wild boar that came with the baby will be more good news or bad news for me. The mother wild boar might be worried about her cubs, so she doesn't dare to leave her young. and didn't think to rush into me. Or it might be a concern for a piglet and then jump in to deal with the dangerous man in its sight, it's all possible.
But I've decided now to escape and I had to hurry before the wild boar rushed towards me.
"Damn it, this stupid leg , why won't you move?!"
Even though my brain gave orders, my legs didn't move. I'm starting to feel confused now. I don't know if it's because it uses too much brain power. or because of extreme fear I was starting to feel dizzy and unable to balance. Suddenly I felt the warmth coming from my wrist spread throughout my body.
"Bracelets?"
As soon as warmth spread throughout his body My brain cleared up almost immediately. Body and mind control began to return at the same time. At the moment I was about to step out and run I heard a loud cry coming from where the giant wild boar stood.
I immediately turned to look at the wild boar. The most obvious thing was that it had a look of fear at me that had never been seen since it stared at me. It slowly moved backwards. Trying to cover the piglet behind it. After that, it let out a loud cry again. It's like trying to frighten me not to get close... which I've never had in my head.
just a moment Without hesitation, the Wild Boar tried to herd the young wild boar to hurriedly cross over to the other side of the Overgrown Forest. In no time, the four young wild boars disappeared into the overgrown forest. before his mother walked in. It turned around and faced me with a loud threatening cry. before hurriedly running after the young wild boar
"What the hell is going on here?"
Now I was completely confused as to why the wild boar was suddenly afraid of me. But that's not important. Most importantly, I seem to have survived. Although he felt that the Wild Boar had gone a long way. But I still haven't forgotten the roar of the wild boar. So I decided to stop in the same place and not move for a long time.
"Hurry up and move on. I don't know if there will be another dangerous animal to appear or not."
At this moment, I'm walking faster than usual. Try to get out of the overgrown forest as quickly as possible. At least if I enter the main road The wild animals would be much less.The distance from this point to it is probably not too far to enter the area of the village.
*******
I don't know if it's because of the wild boar's loud cry or what. But after that I didn't see anything else along the way. Whether it's a small animal or a large animal
About 300 meters ahead, I could clearly see a cluster of houses with smoke rising above the rooftops. It's the closest village to my house. But now I have no business to enter. And entering the village at night like this would be very suspicious.
The village in front of me, although it was not very large. But there are many basic food and daily necessities for sale. enough to allow people in the nearby Riew Forest to buy from this village. without the risk of traveling long distances
In front of me is a crossroads The road to the left is a straight line leading to the village. To the right is the path leading to the main road that connects the village and the town.
With nothing to hesitate, I continued to the left onto the main road. The distance from my home to the village was only 3-4 kilometers, but I lost a lot of time when facing the Wild Boar. Looking from the moon, it's probably close to 9 p.m. I hope the path ahead won't have any strange events. If it goes smoothly, I should probably reach the town during tomorrow morning.
It took me less than 20 minutes to walk and I knew immediately that I had arrived at the main road. because it is clearly different from the walking path in the forest This main road is a route used by merchants and villagers to travel to many other places. Looks like a dirt road There are clear carriage trails along the way. both the footprints of the horses and the oxen that dragged the carriages. and obvious footprints It shows the use of many people passing by.
And it's not surprising to me that the roads are empty now with no one using the roads. Besides, this road is not far from the forest. which is dangerous from wildlife During the night, the weather is still very cold in this season. and besides the moonlight On the way there was no light to guide anything. It would be very difficult for ordinary people to travel during the night.
After a long pause, I decided to continue my journey. but will adjust the plan slightly I decided to walk along the main road. but will not walk in the middle of the road
I thought it was too noticeable for someone to walk alone in the middle of the road on such a cold night.
At the side of the main road is not a dense forest like a forest path. There were big trees along the way. But on the ground there was no grass growing up and overgrown. The journey was thus passed without any difficulty. And these big trees help to cover my body very well.
"neighed!"
After walking for about an hour, I heard a cry of something. After a while I saw several horsemen gallop along the main road. Their behavior was very rushed. I hurriedly hid behind the bushes as soon as I heard the previous sound.
After a group of horsemen approached I began to see the details more clearly. From the outfits this group wore, it looked like a leather suit for soldiers. Each one of them had a physique that looked strong even from a distance. Even Mr. Roger, who I thought looked big and strong Still can't compare with this group of people who seem to be soldiers.
Among the riders, there was one who rode in front of him, his armor looks special and was noticeably different from the others in the group. including his figure that was clearly taller than others Even his horse looked bigger than the group.
At the moment these horsemen rode through the main road near the tree I was hiding.
I noticed that the strong man riding a horse was leading the group. He turned to look at the spot of the tree I was hiding. Even for a short time But I could feel my gaze staring in search of something.
After that, I hid behind the tree with my heart pounding in fear. until I could not hear the horse's footsteps at all. therefore decided to continue the journey
Now I'm starting to notice that Besides, my eyes have improved to see clearly in the dark. My hearing has improved unbelievably as well.
Ever since I heard the sound of the bushes rustling when I encountered a wild boar. And I heard the cry of a horse long before I saw it. I felt that my body was clearly different from the normal person in many ways. and in a better way It made me feel a little more hopeful. to survive in this strange world
