A few days later.

Finally, the day of the coup has arrived.

Reece was looking back at the tribe and at Azure, who is acting like he was preparing to leave for his job as a food hunter. There are still some lookouts, so it is better to be careful and act normal, even if it is not paying attention to Azure.

Bluebird Azure glances at Reece and gave a slight nod before jumping down.

[Report. I will now observe the entire tribe.]

'Yes.'

Reece began to sigh as he was sitting on the tree branch a few kilometers away from the tribe.

'Haaa... This is it, my first kill.'

Though indirectly, since it is his divine power doing the job but Daniel controls it for him.

The bluebird said to begin to trap everyone in the tribe after the team, who will go and accompany them in the trade, left. However, it is quite difficult to trap them all for even an hour, which is why Hugh has to break out of his prison room.

Reece remembered what the bluebird said last night.

'I gave Hugh another token, a strong one, to remove the restriction for 15 seconds. It is enough time to escape.'

Another token.

"Where the fuck did he got that token again?"

Mumbling, Reece messed his hair.

Daniel is currently busy which is why he cannot ask him questions. And even if he can, there is still a 50 percent chance Daniel will not answer or will give one but vaguely.

Obviously, Reece always finds it hard when there is no clear answer.

Azure then continued.

'The signal is...'

"The completion of the dome."

He unconsciously blurted out loud. But, of course, not loud enough for someone to hear.

Bluebird Azure said it is safer to make a dome so that the birds could not fly away after sensing danger.

'You will have enough time to complete such a huge dome as the birds will not be panicking seeing the trees move. After all, they do not believe the nature, whom they love and take care of, is planning on something such as killing.'

That is right, who will think that nature is planning on cooperating on killing them when they took very good care of nature. They even avoid creating huge houses to avoid cutting down trees.

'After that, it all depends on both you and Hugh.'

It depends on Reece and Hugh how they will kill anyone. And Azure's naturally sharp eyes are a bit sharper when he said that.

'As if telling both of us to do well or we are done for.'

Reece snorted remembering Azure's not ugly face that looks ugly for a moment.

'He was right though.'

This is the only perfect chance for them to take revenge and escape and at the same time, Azure will get what he wants.

'Bastard. So annoying.'

Using him and Hugh is frustrating but they cannot complain as Azure was their strategist.

Just as Reece was getting irritated thinking of lots of things, Daniel reported to Reece.

[Report. It is time.]

With the Acting Tribe Chief Russell and one elder accompanying, the trade team was already far away.

'Okay...'

Reece stretches out both his hands with open palms as he shouted in his mind.

'Now!'

[Understood.]

Suddenly, the huge tree branches gradually began to move as they cover the entire tribe, not letting a single one escape.

Of course, it was stealthy done and is quite far away from the tribe. The birds only notice something is wrong when everything started to get dark and found the trees moving abnormally.

"What is going on?"

"Our beloved trees... they seem strange?"

The birds said as they look around.

Unsurprisingly, they are not panicking as they just stood in the middle together while asking one another. They seem only confused about what is happening. Just like Azure has said.

'Ha! Haa!'

Someone huffing could be heard. There is this one creature who has lost its breath for a moment.

'This... Hah...!'

Reece was huffing and cuffing while clenching his chest as he was having a hard time breathing, although he was not sweating.

'This is too taxing!'

He felt so drained after using divine power.

'Ha!'

[Naturally. Though you have no problem using your divine power, your body or soul, is not yet used to this. This explains why your energy is draining.]

This energy is not the same as mana.

Reece is a spirit, which means his supposed 'stamina' is unfounded. Instead, his stamina is spiritual energy.

'Haaa! Ha!'

[Additionally, this is the current status of your 'soul.' Your divine power is actually very strong if not for your weak soul.]

'Is that so...? Hah...'

[Yes. After getting used to it, it will continually lessen the draining feeling and will come out more naturally. Naturally, it will not be soon.]

'Which means I have to put some effort to be familiar with divine power... Haaa.'

[If you do not want this draining feeling every time for a few more years, then indeed.]

'Che!'

Reece clicks his tongue as he puts both his hands in his waist to support himself before he falls and began to land on the nearest tree.

Afterward, he looks up, completely seeing the current scene.

"Wow."

The result of their doing is very beautiful. It creates a huge dome enough to cover the entire tribe. The dome was made of tree branches and roots, with some leaves and odd flowers, it was very beautiful from the outside.

However, after removing this dome, the sight that will follow is not going to be beautiful. Unless you are a maniac who loves the sigh of blood scattered everywhere, creating a flood of blood.

[Announcement. We shall now commence.]

We.

Daniel means Hugh and him, Reece is not included as he was useless.

Hugh will now destroy his prison cell while Daniel starts killing the birds near the trees with sharp and poisonous roots.

'... Okay.'

Reece just nodded and watch the dome though he cannot see a thing.

'I could not hear the voices of everyone.'

[Yes. I did block everything from leaking out. Of course, the smell of blood and meat is not entirely occluded, therefore it will not be long before someone notices.]

'I know.'

Birds are still edible and are prey to others, which the smell of their meat is even more tempting than the blood. Everyone sensitive to smell will all run in this direction.

And the ruckus could buy some time for Reece and Hugh's escape as well as Azure's.

'It is perfect.'

Sometime later, although Reece manages to regain some energy enough to fly again, he still stayed in the tree branch. He will not move until they began running away.

Besides, it is better when he is far so that he will not see anything horrified.

Hugh Ibrahim was focusing on the outside from his very small window.

Thankfully, no one came to 'play' with him today. Everyone seems busy these days for some reason, which is very helpful to save Hugh's stamina for later.

Everything went dark when he will break the token and destroy and kill everything and everyone around.

However, his mind was not on the plan of today and instead, on a certain fairy.

'Aah... I cannot wait to see Reece...'

His Reece, his adorable friend who swears not to leave him alone like everyone did and is going to stay with him forever.

'Together with Reece...'

His Reece, who is very small and is perfectly fitted in his huge palms.

'Ah... So beautiful...'

Hugh began to blush the more he thinks of Reece.

One of his family must have seen him smiling and enjoying himself, and a rock hit his head hard.

"You bastard!"

Someone from his family throws him a rock. But Hugh did not even flinch. He was still sturdily staring outside while tightly clenching the token given by Azure in his paw.

'I cannot wait to escape with Reece and older brother.'

"Mother, something is wrong with this mutant."

Although Hugh could hear his family talking outside while glaring at him, he did not pay them attention. They are not worth his time and attention any more. He has his fellow mutant and brother, Azure, and a newfound friend, Reece.

'My suffering has been paid off.'

All they have to do now was to obliterate everyone and run away together.

Somewhere, they can start again. And in the future, they will rescue every single mutant from despair and discrimination they receive underserved from the world.

If they are lucky enough, they will build their own kingdom and stood with everyone with their head up. No one will look down on them anymore.

'That is the future I, we, are aiming for.'

And just as Hugh thought of that, the surroundings began to darken as the trees abnormally formed a dome at a normal pace.

Everyone and his family did not panic, as predicted. It made Hugh clench the token more tightly it started to crack. He has to break it after the dome is completed and the trees will start to attack the birds.

"Father, nature is quite peculiar today."

"Hmm, maybe nature will give us a miracle today for taking good care of it."

Hugh smiles and chuckles hearing his 'family' talk about bullshits.

Then, the trees finally stop moving and settled. The surrounding was dark, but there is one small hole in the middle of the dome, enough to lighten the surrounding a bit.

"A dome?"

"What is the dome for?"

The voices of the birds this time were stronger and everyone seems to start feeling anxious seeing the huge dome covering their tribe with only a tiny hole in the middle to lighten up the tribe a bit.

Shhhh.

Unnoticed, the roots with sharp ends began to move toward the birds looking at the hole.

"Ugh!"

A groan from someone. Everyone quickly looks in the direction of the voice and found one green bird pierced in its stomach with a root.

"W, what...?"

The green bird manages to say before it fell dead in the ground from poison.

"Why is nature...?"

The birds began to retreat.
