Horas looked at the small and cute abomination in front of him with sweat running down his face. He was so fucked that he could not even speak about it right now.
He needed to make sure no noise exited his lips if he wanted to live. As long as the small rabbit did not notice him, he would be alright.
This small and cute animal in front of him was called a Vampire Rabbit. Its characteristic feature was its black shiny fur, its ruby-red eyes, and its sharp fangs that could pierce one apart rather easily.
These small and cute creatures were one of the worst predators in this environment and their primary diet consisted of blood. Once they sink their fangs into a creature, they did not let go.
But worst of all, they have heard animals. If there was one of them, there would be more nearby. Horas had somehow managed to land himself near a nest of such dangerous creatures.
‘I need to be quiet and sneaky. I cannot let myself get caught by them. I need to live a long and healthy life.’
Horas held his breath as he took a step back and then another. He finally made it out of the vampire rabbit’s range and he made a stupid mistake. He breathed in relief and he allowed his body to relax.
Big mistake on Horas’s part because he failed to notice the other vampire rabbit nearby. And this one was staring right at Horas as he backed away.
Ruby red eyes met Horas’s blue ones and the child knew what he had to do.
‘Run for your life. I need to run away.’
Behind him, the small rabbit finally let out a war cry and ran after Horas. It was soon joined by other rabbits and they were all following after Horas.
The only silver lining in this situation was that these vampire rabbits were rather slow in catching up. Despite having small legs and limited stamina, Horas was able to outrun them.
But then he nicked himself on a branch and it caused a small but bleeding wound. It would attract the vampire rabbits’ sharp noses.
‘I need to get away from them or all my blood will be sucked dry.’
Horas kept on running until he heard another, louder road from behind him. He quickly turned back and his back rested on a rocky surface.
The vampire rabbits had stopped running as well, now looking at Horas in morbid excitement but not coming closer. And it was all because of the liger on his other side.
Liger was the only predator these vampire rabbits had and the only thing they feared. Their only advantage was their large number compared to the liger in front of them.
There was currently a stare-off going between both sides and Horas had a feeling it was because of him. Both sides wanted to eat him but no side wanted to advance.
Finally, the liger took a step forward and Horas pressed himself even further into the rock behind him. The rock wobbled and then Horas felt his body falling through a small crack.
The last thing he saw was the liger jumping toward him but Horas fell down the hole before the liger’s sharp claws could shred him into pieces.
Horas had managed to somehow survive this situation but not without a lot of injuries. His ribs hurt, and he was sure he had also managed to break a few bones in the process.
‘A-At least I am alive?’
But was the pain worth it?
……………………….
Jack Hollow made his way up the Seer mountain at his regular speed. He was well aware that he had lost Horas Spencer a while ago in his hurry.
Initially, he had not wanted to take a small kid here but he had changed his mind when his eyes fell on Horas Spencer again. That kid gave off a weird aura when Jack looked at him.
It had not always been like that. Initially, Jack had only been interested in Howard Spencer, the younger of his *former* employer’s children. The younger brother had an innate talent like never seen before.
If cultivated right, the child would grow up to be the best adventurer there ever was, even surpassing his parent's fame and reputation.
Compared to him, the elder brother was born rather ordinary and no one paid much attention to him. But something seemed to have changed during the funeral for the former number 1 and 2 adventurers.
And that was when Jack Hollow developed an interest in the child. That was also why he had brought the kid here with him.
He wanted to see what would happen if he left the kid alone for some time. Would the kid be able to survive? Or would he be a failure to invest?
Of course, Jack kept an eye on the kid while they were separated and he watches as the kid faced the vampire rabbits and a liger. It was time to save the kid.
But just when Jack Hollow made up his decision, something happened. His connection to the kid was cut off and Jack could no longer see the kid’s location.
This was not the first time this had happened but it was surprising. It made Jack surprised and he lost his focus. The liger in front of him took advantage of his distracted status to attack him.
Jack got a bleeding arm but he managed to attack the liger back and kill it. But that did not ease up the distributed feeling he was having inside his mind.
‘Tsk, such a disappointment. I will have to change my plans now.’
Jack needed to go and find Horas now. The kid was his responsibility and Jack did not want to tarnish his flawless record. He could not afford to lose custody of Howard Spencer just because something happened to his elder brother.
So Jack took a turn back and went after Horas Spencer. He would get the kid back and then decide what to do next.
……………………….
Horas felt a sharp pain in his arm when he tried to move it. He did not want to say that it was broken, but it seemed like a possibility.
He looked up at the huge cliff-like opening he had fallen through and felt thankful that he only seemed to have a fracture.
“But where did I end up falling into? I don’t think I know what this place is.”
The cave needed to be better lit but it had enough light to see around. It was filled with big red fungus-like things which turned out to be plants of some kind.
[[[Specie name : Cockscomb
Harmless plants only grow in a tough environment.]]]
Horas tried his best not to touch the delicate-looking flowers and plants all around him but it was difficult to do.
He needed to move if he wanted to get out of the cave but it hurt if he moved around too much. He needed a way to keep his arm from moving around too much.
‘I am not getting any signal here. I can’t even call Jack Hollow for help. I hope he realizes that I am in danger and comes for me.’
But who knew how long it would take for Jack Hollow to notice that Horas was in trouble? He could not rely on that useless adult in this situation.
Thankfully, Horas had one thing going for him - his thorough preparations.
Mark was a paranoid man and he had forced Horas to carry an emergency kit after his first dungeon mission. It was finally coming in handy.
But since Horas was alone it would not be possible to bandage his arm alone. He would have to take some extreme measures to ensure he made it out alive.
‘I never thought I would have to take this potion so soon.’
Horas gulped down the numbing potion and breathed a sigh of relief when it started working.
The numbing potion he had taken was made for extreme cases and it shut down your body’s pain receptors. It was dangerous to rely on since one usually overestimated their limit once they took it.
And Horas was amazed at the working of the potion. He could not feel the pain in his arm but he could feel the way it was dislocated when he tried to move it.
‘I need to stop observing myself and start moving. I wish I had a map to show me the way out.’
But there was no signal in this cave. And Horas doubted that he would be able to get a map even if he had signaled in his phone. This cave off a weird feeling.
It became evident why Horas was feeling this way when he walked a little more toward the center of the cave. He was beginning to link this cave to the one he had written before briefly.
Finally, he managed to find the cave with the hidden cheat located in it. Now he only needed to find the hidden cheat before his timer ran out and he was no longer able to move.
Did he forget to mention the side effect of the pain-numbing potion? It made one immobile once it wore off. So unless he wanted to be fucked, he needed to hurry.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
