3 "Soul realm"

:Chirp, Chirp:

"Ughhh."

Hunhou got up in an unfamiliar place.

"Where is this place."

"It is your soul realm."

Hunhou heard the old man talk to him from behind but he couldn't move even 1 mm, not even his

head.

"Uhh old man help me."

Said Hunhou to the old man.

"Kiddo this time you are on your own i'm only gonna give you a brief explanation about your predicament. Your soul realm is where your subconsciousness creates a world and every time you enter you must face a trial which is based on your current strength."

(I'm not interested in this crap i want to know where i am.)

Thought Hunhou when all of a sudden he could move again his body.

"if you are thinking where the soul realm is or what it is. it basically your dreamscape but where you

are locked till you finish your trial."

When Hunhou tried to look at the old man behind him he was nowhere to be seen.

"That Sh*** old man."

Grumbled Hunhow he didn't know what to do now.

(How am i going to even start ?

Hunhou was wondering.

After some time he started walking and saw many weird animals for example deer whit human body and deer head or lizards bigger than dogs.

"What a weird soul realm."

Said Hunhou to himself.

:squeak squeak:

:Woshhh, Woshhh:

Hunhou heard some noises and when he wanted to go and look at it he was almost hit by 2 arrows but he was pretty lucky he only got hit on his shoulders... twice.

(ughh its hurts like hell.)

Thought Hunhou when he got hit by the arrows he never thought that they could hurt this much

he staggered backwards and fell down.

Hunhou lost consciousness for 2 seconds before opening his eyes again to see other deermen approaching him.there were 4 deermen actually one in front one behind and two at his side surrounded

"What the hell, fuck off bitches what did i do to deserve this!!!!!"

He screamed like a cornered animal.

In fact Hunhou was a coward and never fought in his life, he was experiencing this for the first time in his 2 lives so he started swearing at the deermen that shot him.

(god damn i should just run.... yeah that's a good idea.)

Hunhou was already scared shitless and didn't notice that the was becoming again that coward that the pledged he will never become.

He despaired the moment he thought he will die again.

"I-i cant die in a place like this !!!!"

Hunhou shouted full of fear. Dread overwhelming his judgement

That's when his basic animalistic instincts took over.

he quickly took the arrows from his shoulder and ran to one of the bow wielding deerman,

with a quick and successive strike he pushed the arrow into the deerman's eyes and inside his cranial skull killing the deerman instantly while he was occupied with one of the deerman the others didn't waste any time and shoot more than a few arrows from 3 directions.

barely dodging the arrow from behind him, the left sided one shot his rib making him scream in agony and then deciding to go full berserk not noticing he got shot in his right shoulder again and running at the left deer with full force and trying to dodge the other arrow the deerman shoot at him which was a few meters away from his head.

With his life on the line all his human potential unleashed and his speed got faster than a speeding horse he succesfully dodged the life threatening shot but without looking behind he got shot on his left thigh which made him stumble before getting up and managing to stop the deerman in front of him from shooting and easily breaking his leg after kicking with his right the deerman's leg from the front.

"BASTARDS!!" he unleashed a punch which broke the deermans neck killing him on the spot.

"GRIIIII!!! Tunkin tikin tuk!!" one of the deermen started shouting in a language he never heard.

in his maddened rush to kill the one on his right side which was closer than the one in front, adrenaline started to fade and he felt pain.

But he knew, he wont live if he doesn't kill them so he ran faster. Registering 2 arrows in his field of view he planned to take one arrow from mid air which he successfully did but at the cost of the other arrow scratching his right thigh even shocking both the deermen which gave him a couple of seconds to tackle the right deerman and sticking the arrow in his heart. the deerman had deer head and human body with deer legs.

{A.N. this is how it looks like https://drakensangonline.fandom.com/wiki/Stag_Man}

:panting: Clearly exhausted from killing the monsters in his madness the other deerman started shooting arrows where he just took the body of the other deerman and used it as a shield even tho it was heavy he could have it stay in place.

After recovering a bit of energy he decided to trow a rock at the deerman, surprise was shown on the deerman but it recovered pretty fast shooting arrow from high up making hunhow dodge from his previous hiding spot (the dead deerman) after successfully dodging a volley of arrows he started retreating into the forest.

After a few minutes of running he exhausted himself and he sat down near a tree with a lot of moss around it and a few insects on it bark.

"Aww shit it hurts and :BLEGH:." he started vomiting after he remember how he killed his first 3 victims.

"fucking hell i still got an arrow in my right shoulder!!?" After sitting down again from vomiting all over the other trees he just noticed he still had an arrow in his shoulder.

"I have no choice i need to take it out so it wont get infected."he started crying when he touched the arrow stuck in his flesh.

"SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT. i need to take it out!!"Steeling himself he started holding the arrow and slowly pushing it outwards."ARGHHH." he fell unconscious after all that pain.

-----------------------------------------------------

Outside the old man was minding his own bussiness taking care of some leftover food from a restaurants trashcan.

"Hehehe the kid will love this roasted deer leg, even tho it a leftover."said the old man a bit drunk and he spaced out again -_-.

Holding a bottle of empty wine in his hand he slowly approached their little cabin out of cardboxes and other metal sheets from trashcans.

"Kiddo i got some good stuff hehehe~~"Said the old man while clearly forgetting the kid right now is in his soul realm.

"kiddo!!?"he started shouting till he remembered"Ohh shit he is in his soul realm unlocking his spiritual avatar."

----------------------------------------------------------

Back in the soul realm.

"Ughh my head feels dizzy."after waking up he noticed something quite alarming

"shit how much was i out ?" and he noticed his wounds are almost fully regenerated.

"now that is such a good ability old man it such a life saver T^T it seems it always working so it more of a passive ability or it only works when my heart beats faster?.. huum i will need to think about it more, but not now, now i need to find a safehaven in this god knows place."he got up from the tree which had some blood on it obviously his. after searching for a place he heard a loud splash which meant it must be a "waterfall!! and where there is a waterfall there must be a cave!!"

Said Hunhou out loud looking excited. after walking for a few minutes he noticed a huge waterfall and he started observing for any kinds of dangers.

"huum i guess it a safe place i just gotta find that nice cliche treasure cave with a mystical plant or something which will make me stronger by 10 times making me able to kill my enemies with easy and more face slapping than ever." Said Hunhou smugly and of course jokingly.
