《Cata Maestra》Forest Arc | Chapter 3: Praedonius Insania

Advertisement

...Was that one of my memories or something...? It was all fuzzy, I can't really make any sense of it. I think I heard my name a few times though... Was it something important...? Well, even if it was, if I can't make any sense of it, then I might as well have never seen it...

I slap my cheeks, dispelling my thoughts. My memories... aren't high on my priority list at the moment. I should figure out why I passed out. If that happens again, it could possibly cost me my life.

The sound of regret reverberates in my ears in the form of my growling stomach. Using up that energy must have, well, used up a lot of energy. I feel even hungrier than before, which is definitely a bad sign. It's best if I get something to eat before figuring that out. In the meantime, I'll just have to avoid messing with that energy.

I sigh, something I've been doing a lot recently. After waking up, the pains in my neck have faded to only a slight chill, which is nice. Looking outside, I can see that it's now daytime, meaning I slept through the night. The sounds of those creatures are gone too. Can they only come out during night? I hope so...

Well, lets go.

I grab my icicle, wrap my scarf around my feet, and march outside the cave with determination. I have to find something to eat. At the moment, I could consider myself quite literally dying in my current state. I can't go on any longer like this.

As I walk through the snow, I quickly find myself surrounded by trees once again, with various types of bushes scattered randomly. I notice that some have berries, but upon closer inspection, they're the same paralysis berries as before.

Well... they won't kill me, right?

I go and pick some and stuff them in the hood of my cloak. To be honest though, while I keep calling it a cloak, it's really just a rectangular sheet of cloth with another piece of cloth attached, vaguely in the shape of a hood. It's better than nothing though; in this type of situation it wouldn't be strange to have nothing at all.

After I finish picking berries, I scoop up some snow and eat it.

...What? I'm thirsty. Got a problem?

Once I'm done with the snow, I stand back up and keep walking, stuffing berries into my hood as I move on. As I continue further and further, the terrain gradually becomes more difficult to traverse. The hills become steeper, some even covered with ice causing me to slip and slide down. Some of them I might even call small cliffs.

Compared to last time, I've been out walking significantly longer. My legs ache, but I know that if I take time to rest, I'm not going to want to get up again. Even so, it's not like I can just go back now. All I have are some poisonous berries... they'll sate my hunger and offer some nourishment, but won't be much help in the long run. On the other hand, if I could find an actual animal...

My eyes catch movement, and immediately dart over to a beetle clinging to the side of a tree.

...

N-n-n-no way! I can't eat that! I don't care how hungry I am, I can't eat that... thing.

growl

Guh...!

Fine, but only cause I'm starving! I walk up and smack it with my icicle. Blue bug juice squirts out, triggering a queasy feeling in my stomach. With my eyes shut, I grab it and stuff it in my hood, wiping my hands on my cloak right afterwards.

Mission success...!

Haha...

I shuffle away from the blue splat mark left on the tree before looking back.

Although a bug like this... this hardly even counts if we're talking about animals. When you mention animals, you think of squirrels! Or rabbits! Not... beetles or whatever...!

I guess... I'll keep looking for now.

I stand at the edge of a cliff. A small, white ball of fur sits at the bottom, nibbling on the leaves of some bushes. It moves with small hops as its ears twitch, taking in the sounds of its surroundings.

Yep. It's a rabbit. I'm not sure why it's out here though. Rabbits hibernate, right? Yes, they do. I'm not crazy, okay?

...Well, I might be a bit crazy, but that's not the problem here! In fact, there is absolutely no problem whatsoever! This is a perfect chance for me to get some food! All I need to do is catch the rabbit!

...How do I catch the rabbit?

If I walk around, I could possibly go down the hill to corner it, but in my current state, I don't think I'll even be able to catch it like that. Sneaking up might work, but I doubt it. Animals have far better senses of smell compared to humans, so I can't rely on just being quiet.

So... I'll have to kill it... without it noticing me.

I look down. It's right below me.

I look at my hands. The icicle carried in one of them shines in the sunlight.

...Ah.

I drop down to the ground and crawl slightly over the edge. Looking down from such a height triggers feeling of vertigo, making my stomach swim, but I put the feeling out of my mind. I take the icicle and position it straight above the rabbit, holding it tight with both hands, before letting go.

The icicle cuts through the air before landing right on top of the rabbit. The unnatural weight of it pierces straight through the rabbit into the ground, pinning it down. I watch as it flails and thrashes to no avail, only wasting the little energy it had left.

Yes! I-I got it...! I killed it!

...I... killed it...

...Somehow... this doesn't feel as gratifying as I was thinking...

I look at the now twitching body of the rabbit.

It's survival of the fittest, okay? It's not my fault it was weaker than me, okay...? I don't have much of a choice here, you know...

With a grim expression, I shuffle down the hill. As I do so, chills spread across my body, but it's only because I might slip and hit my head. Normally I'd be more careful about it, but considering it happened each time before when I was going down hills, I'm sure it's the cause.

Impatient with my slow progress down the hill, I sit down and let myself slide down, before stumbling over to the rabbit.

...Without my walking sti-... icicle, it's a lot harder to move around...

I look down at the corpse pinned to the ground. Now that I'm taking a closer look, doesn't this rabbit have three eyes and a horn?

T-that doesn't matter. I need food, and it'll suffice. As long as I can get some meat, it's fine. I pick it up and sling it over my shoulder. It won't fit in my hood, so I have no choice but to carry it like this.

I look at the bloodstains, shivering slightly before turning around to go back to the cave. I can only hope that the blood won't attract any predators.

Eventually, I make it back, collecting bugs along the way. It took a bit longer than I was expecting; the rabbit took up a spare hand, while I had to be careful not to let anything fall out of my hood. Once or twice, my neck even spiked up in pain, throwing me into a minor panic. It was tough...

As I sit down on the stone floor, I turn my hood inside out while dropping the rabbit off to the side. It lands with a slight squish, making me wince, but nothing more.

Now... what to eat first...? Definitely not the berries. If I eat them, I won't be able to eat anything else until the paralysis wears off. That leaves the pile of bugs and the rabbit.

...I... think I'll go with the rabbit.

How am I supposed to eat this? I was planning to cook it over a fire, but I can't realy start a fire in my current condition... Using friction takes a lot of endurance, something I don't have, and unless some magical wizard appears to oh-so-magically set some wood on fire for me, I don't think I can get fire any other way.

I guess I've gotta... eat it raw then?

I'm getting a dangerous vibe from eating this meat raw, especially considering the peculiarness of the rabbit itself, and my neck is acting up a bit. But... that's only because it's raw meat, right? It could be insanitary?

Suppressing a shiver, I walk over to the pile of ice shards near the wall. As expected, some of them broke off to create a nice edge. I pick up one of the sharper pieces and move back towards the rabbit. Using the knife-like ice shard, I cut off the skin and remove the organs. Most, if not all of the blood was lost as I was walking back to the cave, so I don't need to worry about that. I also break off the horn and throw it to the side. It might be useful as a weapon later on.

With a slight cringe on my face, I close my eyes and bite down on the side of the rabbit. It's surprisingly flavorless, except for an extremely faint sweetness. Chances are, it didn't get to gain much flavor through cooking. The mild flavor might have been a little bit pleasing though, if it weren't for the slimy and chewy texture.

While holding back my gag reflex, I swallow the rabbit meat.

A forboding feeling strikes my heart as the meat slides down my throat, accompanied with an unbelievable strangling sensation. With zero hesitation, I try to make myself throw up, but I'm one second too late.

As soon as it drops into my stomach-
