"Today is a good day."
Alex, who was covered in blood, said as he pulled his sword out of a beast's neck.
He picked up the firewood that had not been soaked on the ground and knocked it with two stones a few times to guide the sparks. Then, he set up a bonfire on the tidied leaves.
After grilling the meat for a while, it was glistening with oil. He thanked the God for giving him a dangerous species to barbecue. Otherwise, he would have starved to death after not eating for two days.
Although the meat had been roasted quite a bit, it was still too big. Roast the sword with fire and use it to cut meat.
However…
"Clang!"
What was even more disrespectful was that the sword that had killed this creature earlier broke in the middle just as it came into contact with the bone.
"Ahhhh!" Alex wanted to cry. "Looks like I've hit the hardest bone…"
Although the workmanship of this sword was not good, it had killed at least four or five food. He did not expect it to break because of this mistake.
Using a leaf as a cushion, Alex held his neck and took a few bites. Because there were too many places inside, he couldn't reach it. After licking it with his tongue, he could only throw it away with tears in his eyes.
He recalled that ever since he had entered this mountainous area by mistake seven days ago, bad luck seemed to have been taking care of him. He had just found a spring, but the temperature was over 80 degrees. He planned to cut down a big tree to see the growth rings to confirm the north and south. In the end, he wanted to cry but had no tears to find that the forest he entered was actually the legendary "unknown" forest.
The 'I Don't Know' Forest was a general term for a forest less than 300 miles away from the Imperial Capital. The reason why this forest was called the " Unknown Forest " was because of the following reasons.
First, from the founding emperor a thousand years ago to now, no one had explored the entire forest. Many scholars and experts brought their own equipment into the forest, but most of them would not know where they were when they returned. There were all kinds of strange places, so this forest was the only one with a rough location.
The second reason was the terrifying environment! One had to know that the direction was usually based on the sun, moon, stars, and so on. However, this forest seemed to be the only strange place in the world. Because the sun, moon, and stars in this place were always right above you. Although it wasn't easy to notice, one could tell by looking at the tree rings that they were all the same size!
Thinking that he might be lost in this forest forever in his twenties, Alex had the urge to commit suicide. Unfortunately, his sword had just broken!
After adjusting his collar, Alex began to pray to the God he believed in. As long as you can let me see a living person, whether it's from the capital or the countryside, even if it's someone from the Nightraid, as long as you can save my life, I'll give my 100 plus pounds to her!”
Thinking back to how he was originally a happy little bandit, he would usually secretly play with chickens and dogs, and catch mice to feed cats. When the news of the expansion of the Empire spread that they were going to exterminate the bandits, Alex, who knew that he was trying his best, immediately drew a clear line with the bandits. At the same time, he also used attacking the bandits to save the village and other things to clear his name. After acting with his former good neighbor for more than two years, he finally obtained the identity of a noble (to be determined). He actually entered the Forest of Ignorance because he did not want to talk to the commoners. He really felt a sense of sadness. "Even if it's Nighraid, the so-called assassin of the nobles in the capital, I'll bow down immediately as soon as he appears! So…"
He looked at the sky that remained unchanged. "Give me some response!!! I, a great noble (to be determined), am facing the fate of starving to death or being torn apart by wild beasts in a few days!!!”
Then, under Alex's bright eyes, a dark cloud finally flew over from the horizon.
