Sono Mono Nochi Ni Volume 1 Chapter 1 Part2

Translator/ Editor: Kuhaku

My tummy rang. I am hungry because I am alive. I realized things like that. I took it for granted. I put the nut which I had obtained while I was in the forest in my mouth and suppressed some of my hunger. What I was thinking while eating the nuts was that I don't want to die. I have begun to feel the desire to survive.

There were light snacks in the forest, for example, berries and nuts. But I was never satisfied and always hungry. What do I do? After many days have pa.s.sed, the answer was right in front of me. I have to eat the leftovers of the forest demons. At first, I tried to hunt the demons in the forest with the weapons I made. I would immediately become the next target if I miss. Especially, that fish and cat demon, which were both aiming to kill me. So the only way I can take it is to hunt the prey the demons have left behind. The food was not good, to be honest, and I was hesitant, but I'll put it in my mouth, even if it stinks or not. But it's great. The bones are delicious. I feel like I can put it in my mouth.

My belly swelled up a little and I felt a bit dizzy. I was not worried about the smell. My tongue felt numb after a while and I couldn't speak. The numbness of my tongue spread throughout my body. My fingers also became numb. I went back to the cave in a hurry, but by the time I reached it, the numbness spread to my whole body, and I could not stand anymore. I started to feel pain, even though my body was numb. I managed to lie down and look up at the sky. I was able to see because it was immediately after entering the cave.

As I looked up into the sky, the ball, which emitted a bright light, came flying towards me. I can't move. Oh, it's over. I shut my eyes tightly. But nothing happens in particular, I opened my eyes slowly, just to check. There was no ball appearance anywhere. What the h.e.l.l was that?

While thinking about the problem, I went to sleep. On that day, I dreamed that I could relive my life a second time and start over. The next day, my body was strangely better. I felt that some power has returned back into my body But there was still the problem of no food. Things did not change. I don't know how many days have pa.s.sed since then, but I ate gra.s.s growing in various places. That helped me suppress my daily hunger.

Every day, I would eat a little bit of monster meat. My body would feel strange, but it would return to normal the next day. I do not know whether or not my body was adapting to it, but I was perfectly fine.

Could I go back to human society? Recently, I'm starting to go crazy. I haven't been able to talk to any humans. I'm worried that when I meet someone, I would not be able to talk to them properly. I would like to practice my speaking skills. Time has gone by fast. I realized that when I was spending my days living in the forest. My body was skinny. It seems that my muscles have decreased and so has my physical strength. I'm going to make sure what my rank is on my adventure card. I needed to poke my fingertip with some stones and let my blood drop onto the card. When the registered Person's blood is dropped onto the card, the guild card displays the current data of the person on the card.
