《Green Life》Their true strength! - chapter 40

That cunt Hina tried to kick me and Shiro!
I grabbed her leg instinctively before it reached Shiro.
I threw her leg away from me and she fell down.
As I was burning with rage I removed my earplugs and got up. I did my best to hide my killing intent.
Hina got up as she calmed down a little after Ren tried to talk to her.
I could see the face of Hina. She was looking away with an angry face.
But before I was about to say something Haruto started apologizing.
[ I'm really sorry for what Hina did to you! ] ( Haruto)
He apologized instead of her.
I really wanted to break all of her fingers one by one and let her get eaten alive slowly by some monster.
...
I need to calm down.
Firstly I should let them show me the way to the closest city.
[ It's not my fault that he wasn't waking up even though Haruto was calling out his name! Hmph! ] ( Hina )
She said that while holding the same position as before. She was crossing her arms and she had her eyes closed.
[ She doesn't really mean that, Hatsuko! We were about to head back to the city so I was trying to wake you up. Once again, I'm really sorry! ] ( Haruto )
Since they are a group of four that means the city is close by. No one would go on a suicidal trip with just these few people.
Even I found it a bit weird that my presence detection skill barely detected any strong monsters.
That means there should be a city here! But where?
Oh right! They mentioned that the city was called UGC "Underground City".
[ Uh... Hatsuko? ] ( Haruto)
Maybe the city was under my feet this whole time without realizing it.

That also would explain why there weren't any powerful monsters nearby.
[ H-Hatsuko! ] ( Haruto)
Hm?
I noticed Haruto who was calling out my name.
I made eye contact with him.
[ What is it? ] ( Hatsuko)
I already knew what he wanted but I asked him anyway.
[ We were about to head to UGC... and you can join us if you want! ] ( Haruto)
Even though I hate to do this, I have to follow them.
I don't know how powerful that city is and I don't know its exact location so I have to rely on them.
[ Okay, lead the way. ] ( Hatsuko)
I said with a voice that wasn't angry but neither soft.
[ You better be grateful for having us protect you from the wild monsters! ] ( Hina)
...
[ Come on Hina, don't be like that! Hehehe ] ( Kanae )
...
Haruto started scratching the back of his head while making a wryly smile. Ren also was near him with a dull expression on her face.
.....
...
..

* * * *
The formation of our group was simple. Haruto and Kanae were in the front, the other girls were behind them. And lastly, me, who was behind everyone.
I didn't mind at all if they fight monsters as long as it's not a powerful one.
Of course, I don't intend to protect them! All I need are the orientation to the city.
As we continued to walk I started working on a plan on my head in case they try to deceive or try to kill me.
In the first place, it is really weird the fact that they are trying to help a stranger who they just met in a forest full of monsters.
Also, there is another thing I have realized.

I somehow can think faster and into more details than before.
Is it because my INT has increased a lot?
...
Hm?
I sensed a monster 200 meters away which was coming towards us. I don't know what kind of monster it is but I could feel how powerful it was.
They don't seem to be wary of that monster.
The monster was weak so it's not something I need to worry about. Maybe they also consider that monster very weak so they decided to not bother with it.
The monster got closer to us.
100 meters...
80 meters...
50 meters...
20 meters...
And now I could hear the noises made by that monster on the bushes in front of us.
[ Everyone stop for a moment! ] ( Haruto)
He said while showing a sign with his hand to have us not to make any sounds.
I also stayed behind everyone.
I was a bit curious to see how powerful they were.
From the bushes, a big black bear came out. He was a bit similar to the bear I first fought.
[ It can't be! Why is a black bear on this zone?! ] ( Hina )
Everyone got into their positions. Haruto was trembling a little. It wasn't that noticeable from the girl's perspective. Since I had 10X eyes skill, I could clearly see him.
What's so scary about that weak monster?
I checked the status of that monster.

Huh? Haruto is way weaker than this monster!
How the fuck did he survive from all of the monsters?
Wait!
Hina said, "Why is a black bear on this zone?"
Does that mean there aren't any strong monsters here?
But why? is it because of the underground city?
What about the status of the others?

Both Hina and Ren seem to have similar statuses except for their skills.
Even though I could use "Life draining" to heal myself I still want that skill "Heal" Hina had!
But will my skill work against other humans?

Even Kanae had similar status to Haruto.
Is this all they have?
And they're trying to protect me with their shitty status!
Are they making fun of me?

The life of a teenage hellworlder
We've all heard of the trope that Earth is a deadly planet by galactic standard; and has thus honed humanity into a ruthless species bent on surviving at all costs. As it turns out, that trope is true. Sapient species that evolve on safe planets develop to be peaceful and compassionate - and the ones that do on dangerous ones become violent and selfish out of need - usually wiping themselves out. But obviously, not every violent species drives itself to extinction - resulting in them being feared and ostracized - including humans. The life of a teenage hellworlder is a sci-fi slice of life story that revolves mainly around Thomas, a sixteen-year-old New Britannian attending a Xeno high school, who befriends a lonely apex predator named Javqua. Getting written by two amateur teen writers, things may sometimes be inconsistent or be confusing - feel free to comment and point out these problems. Gore, profanity, and traumatizing content tags are only for minor events in the story and do not happen often. Chapters are around 1k - 2k words - pretty short, but that's because we're all busy with our own lives and school. Trust us - we would gladly upload 5k word chapters if we could. We tend to upload new chapters every Saturday or Sunday. Please consider supporting us on Patreon!

Meanwhile, in the heart of the South, embers of war begin to rekindle. Will it be the death knell of yet another nation millennia old? Book 4: The Unravelling World Synopsis: Time is not on Gaius' side. Everyday life, already disturbed by the flames of mortal war, falls apart entirely as beings of legend once again appear on Orb. Forced to a foreign land to treat his injuries, the boy must confront the outcomes of his actions, directly and indirectly. But the tide is rising. Countless enemies are throwing themselves against the nations of Orb, cleaving a path of blood wherever they go. Gaius has to hurry...or drown with the rest. Book 5: World's End, Divines' Rondo Synopsis: The great gods of Orb have staked their claim on the world itself, killing all in their way. Each of the Cardinal Continents are fighting their own battles and making their own peace, but none are aware of the growing threat from the Wildlands, where a self-exiled legend continues to gather strength. Meanwhile, a new threat stalks the whole of Orb, killing whatever remains of the Constellation Heroes. Against such a chaotic backdrop, a boy continues to protect a semblance of daily life for his loved ones, but will he be successful when the curtains finally open? Book 6: The Frenzied Tide Synopsis: A sword hangs above the Eastern Territories. The Human God, progenitor of all life, the direct cause of the beastfolk genocide, has made his will known to the rulers of the East — make peace with the God of Water, or be destroyed in three months. Gaius, who has left the battlefield to return home, is once again called to fight, to support a do-or-die offensive upon their foe's territory. But in the background, the threads of destiny are beginning to come together. Plots set in motion long ago are coming to fruition... Book 7: Limina of Ruin Synopsis: The chalice has broken. The East is beset with turmoil, as factions turn on each other. The Great Divide, however, brims with a setting radiance, ensuring a final, transient peace. And in the midst of it all, one young boy follows the fettered winds and the unshackled waters, heading to a new land to uphold a promise. For him, the days of fighting will be a distant memory before long...and a daily event in the years to come. Uncovering ancient memories, putting to rest regrets, enjoying the last of a peaceful life...the people of the Five Lands will live to their fullest. Yet, this is but the calm before the storm. Book 8: Power Talks Synopsis: Fate. A curious word to most...and a frightening word to Gaius. Alongside the rulers of the North, Gaius witnesses frightening truths, proof of an inevitable future. Spurred by a myriad chilling revelations and urged by a god's killer, the Mortal Light Dynasty gathers both mortal rulers and divine sovereigns, covering past conflicts with a offer of cooperation of an unprecedented scale. However, can this unity, first of its kind, stand up to time, fate and mortal nature? Or will it burn, along with the Five Lands? Book 9: Homeland Song Synopsis: Gazing out at the Orb of old, Gaius ponders his destiny and the great stakes with it. Time and again, he has led a life of choices, making one after another for the sake of those he cares about. His latest choice, however, carries implications of an immeasurable scale. Charged with the protection of the future, all that awaits him is an eternal solitude... On the other side of the false world, a single star shines, one whose light is meant to protect. Gemini, who has long found a homeland in the form of Ark City, has spent years defending it with friends and family alike. However, an inexorable end is approaching. The day the Great Divide falls looms ever closer. At the crossroads of destiny, when the chains of fate bind him fully, what will the last Constellation choose? And what will his choice mean for the rest of the Five Lands? Book 10: Immortal Indignant Synopsis: As the Five Lands reel from an unexpected revelation, Gaius continues his struggle to accept his immortal destiny of eternal vigilance. Mortal fetters continue to tie him down, with the prospect of breaking them a heart-rending prospect. There is little light for him in the darkness; his emotions seemingly a poisoned apple. For him, the days ahead are one of balancing his emotions; his immortal destiny is antithetical to the aspects that make one mortal. However, he isn't the only immortal indignant at the current state of affairs. Behind the scenes, huge powers push and pull, tussling in an insane game of wrestling sanity. The Five Lands and the great gods prepare in the background, awaiting their time to strike... Book 11: Cause Convergent Synopsis: As Orb reels from an unexpected turn of events, the crumbling of the Great Divide speeds up. With time now at a premium, Gaius travels the world, addressing a particular personage's last will, while ensuring that he leaves no regrets behind. Revisiting the Five Lands with his beloved one last time, he casts his eyes to a new future, a world full of a peace forged by collective resistance. Far away from Gaius, at the very borders of the Southern Continent, soldiers train day and night, awaiting the day the rift between worlds crumble. But the battlefield there isn't just between the Five Lands and the Wildlands... Book 12: Boundary Belligerent Synopsis: The rift between worlds crumble. The moon, the sun and the sky shatter, revealing the vast expanse beyond. The cold light of the stars gaze down upon Orb, illuminating a bloody battlefield at World's End, where gods and mortals wrestle. Immortal troops charge the Five Lands, over and over again, only to be repelled by vast engines of war. For many, the moment of destiny has arrived. The Third Extermination has begun. However, Gaius gazes not at the present, but at the future beyond. What does he see there? And what will he do? Book 13: Destiny Divergent Synopsis: Bells ring, and destiny veers. Mortal miracles, having pierced a divine destiny, now turn their light of annihilation upon the legendary land of dangers and dark myth. A single being who should have slept forever reawakens, carrying out a inherited duty to protect. Under a dome of absolute law, the hulks that darken the skies are grounded, forcing the Five Lands to move ahead on foot. Hidden differences erupt, comrades turn upon comrades, and the alliance begins to crumble. What should have been a happy ending begins to fall apart. Watching from high above, the Abyss Sovereign laments his weakness, cursing the new destiny laid upon the world. And yet, he will never give up. Book 14: Abyss Ascendent Synopsis: As a future of never-ending conflict draws closer, Gaius stands at the centre of Orb, his will tempered and set. What the Wildlands has ceased to be, he will inherit. Divine Kingdoms and mortal nations clamour for peace to prepare for greater wars, but Gaius will no longer stand for that. For the sake of his dream, the Five Lands — and now, the Wildlands — must be unified against a common enemy. Gaius himself. Raising the flag of rebellion against mortal nature and destiny, the Abyss Sovereign commences a festival of creation for his new world, a paradise unimaginable to both mortal and divine minds. With his intentions made known now, there is no going back. He will succeed. Or die trying. Book 15: Terminus Transcendent Synopsis: ??? This is a story that may, depending on how impatient you are, take some time to spin up. I have enough in my mind for a long run, so it's essential that I lay out a great deal of groundwork at the start. Eleven books have been released so far, and this work will end at Book 15.
