Chapter 22: A New Threat In The Forest



A couple of minutes ago, Damien had activated his new Subskill (Sensory Link) and connected to his only summon at the moment, Luton. The feelings that flooded his senses were so real that Damien first froze.

Luton\'s way of movement as a slime which was basically crawling against the ground almost felt like he was the one doing it.

Two of the other senses however weren\'t affected that much. Damien immediately discovered that Luton didn\'t possess the sense of taste and smell. The slime only had three of the major senses. Sense of Sight, Hearing and Touch.

The sense of hearing was exactly why he\'d picked up the voices of the humans. It was the second sense that overwhelmed him after the sense of touch.

"Let\'s head back for now. We can at least have a burial for Garius as well." Those were all Damien needed to hear to confirm that the speakers were humans.

Then the sense of sight came and Damien saw all five of them.

Damien watched all five gather in a circle with one member resting in the shoulder of another.

The figure carrying another on his shoulder had sky-blue hair and eyes and a handsome look that stunned even Damien for a second. The system had explained to him that he would be able to share senses with his summons but Damien tried to push further.

"Please, move! Luton, move!" He urged Luton to move in whatever way he could but nothing happened after a few trials which made him sigh in regret.

He could only watch and hope Luton would move closer or hint at them or anything. However, when the slime finally moved closer, the humans seemed to move away. It was as if they were afraid of it.

\'Luton, what did you do?\' Damien asked himself in curiosity. Having failed to control his summon, he continued to watch until the blue haired figure brought out a purple scroll that Damien immediately identified.

Immediately deciphering the purpose of the scroll, Damien screamed as best as he could. hoping for some form of miracle that would allow them to hear him. But all his efforts were futile. No one even knew how far away they were from each other. Damien sighed as he watched the man and his purple scroll.

It was the same color and type of scroll that his uncle, Osbourne had shown him as his ticket back to the family estate on the night that Damien had been abandoned in this forest.

He watched the figure tear the scroll in two and a purple light engulf all five of them for a few seconds. When the light finally died down, they were all gone. All five of them.

He was furious!

No human ever came to the Forest of Twin Disasters except it was utterly important as most times, the dangers in the forest outweighed the benefits.

However, if these people had come here, it meant they were after something very important. Or someone.

Damien had missed his chance at leaving the forest after over four months and he wasn\'t even certain another opportunity like this would be presented to him. Fate could be that cruel.

This was the reason for his fury. Furious at having missed his chance back to civilization.

The fury had been his reason for causing such a ruckus and almost falling down a tree with his punch.

He needed something to relieve the growing anger and the tree had been perfect for it.

However, he soon regretted it.

Rooaar!!

There was another violent roar that shook the area along with Damien and from months worth of experience in the forest, Samien knew her offended and attracted something with his noise and would have to change his location.

"Cancel summon." Damien commanded, immediately rising to his feet. He looked around for a brief second as the panel popped up once again.

«Summon Cancelled!»

He took a deep breath and began running. Toward the south. If there was one thing he\'d learnt from the first about directions, it was that south was the safe regardless of the situation.

And so: whenever he found himself in a pinch or attack from something he couldn\'t face yet, Damien escaped to the south.

With a smirk on his face, Damien gave another command to his system. "Summon Luton."

«Summoning Luton, the Stellar Slime…»

«Luton Summoned!»

As he raced through the forest, a small portal opened up in front of him and his summoned slime jumped out, perfectly landed on Damien\'s head as he raced forward.

He chuckled as he continued his race without looking back.

It was barely sunset when a pillar of light descended in front of the castle gate within the city of Elaria, capital of Staria.

Wooooong~

The guards, always ready, free their swords in anticipation of an attack from intruders but were stunned to see five figures when the light vanished.

"Huh?" The highest ranked guard at the gate stood ikna daze. He\'d been the one to inform the king some hours ago of the appearance of the six member party the king had called together. He\'d also overheard their mission. Each one of them was considerably powerful but looking at five of them now, he couldn\'t find that powerful aura.

And five members?

"We\'ve returned!" The guard was still in a daze, asking himself questions like why only five members had returned instead of six and what had happened to the sixth member when Jack arrived in front of him with a frown.

"Ah. Yes! Welcome. I shall inform the King of your arrivals and I\'m sure he\'ll grant you all immediate audience. Give me a few minutes." The guard informed Jack, turning to take his leave when Javksuhand suddenly held onto his shoulder.

"Don\'t worry. We\'ll see him immediately."

The guard was surprised by Jack\'s statement as there was an unspoken rule that whenever there was a visitor, the guards needed to inform the King first to ensure the King was expecting such a visitor.

"But…"

"It\'s very important and I suggest you step aside. There\'s a new threat in the forest and the King needs to know about it immediately." Jack cut through the guard\'s statement.

"Still…"

The guard opened his mouth to speak again but paused.

"You may proceed." He said after a few seconds of silence.
