Legacy of Rhea: Revival.

Chapter 3: Old Dreams...

"Alfredo! Alfredo! Wake up you silly boy! It's time for us to pray!"

A figure of beautiful girl appear in front of me... Who is she? She looks like a child... But time to pray? Why does it sounds familiar?

I stand up and feel that there's something strange about me... My body become small again. I can only notice that but can't do anything.

My body started chasing the little girl... Who... Is she? This dream is weird...

"Wait! Wait! Don't leave me!"

"Ahahaha! Alfredo! As always! You're really slow! Come on! Take my hand!"

My body reach for the Girl hand. We grip each other hand and then laugh at each other as we go somewhere... Into the bright light...

I woke up from my sleep and immediately hold my head.

"Ugghh... What was that?"

Who is that in my dream? I never see her or remember anything about her... But strangely... I feel comfortable when I see her...

In my 18 years of life... This is the first time I ever had a dream about someone like that... Really strange and hurtful...

"My head is really hurting..."

I hold my head and push my finger against it... Trying to relief some of the pain away... But it strikes me even harder... Uugh...

It's uncomfortable... Why does this happen? Does it have anything to do with the dream? That's the only thing that I can think about...

"Huuftt...."

I take a couple of deep breath and decided to just let it strike... Rather than using Serene Mind to lessened the pain... I would rather feel it. Hoping that I get an answer behind this dream...

But to my pain... It's useless... I can't seem to remember anything regarding that dream.

It is true that I used to pray all the time... But to my knowledge, I always Pray alone in temple...

That reminds me of a painful memory that I have though...

I stand up from my sleeping bag and then look at the Rod of Lyssa... Two of them has turned off... Meaning that it has been 10 hours since I slept... I look out of the window and I see a lot of ferocious beast in the form of Wolves and Tigers died outside of my Ruins...

I sit down on the corner and then remember my past once again...

Back when I was 6 Years old... I grew up with parents. They're really nice to me. They're caring and loving... I thought that they're always busy with their work. So I live with what I thought as my other brother and sister...

But turns out... It's an Orphanage... At the age of 6... They finally dumped me because they don't have the funds to take care of me...

At that age I don't know much about life... So I just thought that it's just a work matter... But no... They don't want me...

And what's more painful is... The Fire... Burned our Orphanage down... Killing a lot of children along the way...

I think, out of the 34 children that lived there... Only I survive... There's 34 Children and 12 Adults that take care of us. None of them but me survived the destruction of the Orphanage...

I have... No grudge to them because I just thought that it's normal... But I realize long time ago that it's not... But because I already let them go... I just let them go...

Now, I lived for my own free will rather than tie to any past such as that...

"Haaah... Why do I remember that painful memory?"

I muttered to myself in despair... I honestly hate that past of mine... If possible, I would erase that memory all together and only remember my life as a Treasure Hunter. It's far more fun and nice...

There's a lot of hardship of course, Seeing people passed out in an adventure from cockily fighting against monster... But everything just make me stronger and make me invents more thing...

*AUUUUUUU!!!"

Another howl from pack of wolves can be heard... I just sigh and then go back to my sleeping bag. I sit down on the sleeping bag and let the heater heat my body... I take out a water bag and chug it down...

The space in my backpack is definitely become larger as I chug more water bag...

I still have a couple more left... So I'm fine for today. But it's wise for me to refill more water though...

But then... Hell break loose... I thought that I'm safe... But More Wolf come toward my Ruins and they overwhelm the Rod of Lyssa...

The Rod of Lyssa fall down from the doorway and then roll down to the ground...

"Oh s**t!"

As that happens... A lot of wolves started munching on the Rod of Lyssa... I look at the other Rod of Lyssa. And I didn't reset it... So it's sat there doing nothing...

And of course... Because the wolves lick the Rod of Lyssa... They fall down. But that doesn't mean they're going to stop...

They see what the Rod of Lyssa has for them... And ignore it. Since they thought that it's dangerous for them.. They turn around and saw me...

Of course, I already know that they're going to notice me sooner or later...

So My hand is already on my backpack. I open a secret compartment inside the Bag and then Grab 2 things from there...

Two Rectangular steel. With different color on the center button... One is Yellow and one is red...

Of course... I immediately press the Yellow button and then throw it to the pack of Wolves that are barging into the Ruins... They have no idea what's coming...

The Timer runs out of the Yellow Rectangular. And then, an intense light just burn the Wolves eyes... They were blinded in an instant...

"First part, Flashbang is done... Now, eat this Explosion."

I press the Red button and then throw it at the blind Wolves... The timer went down and then suddenly... A Small explosion comes out from the thing...

The Wolves started bleeding from their ears and then fall down dead...

I grab the Flashbang and then the Red thing...

"They comes in handy~"

The Red one is really dangerous to use if I'm not careful... It's a Powerful Sound bomb... My ears has been immune to this Bomb since I always hear the explosion...

But for someone who never hear it, it's going to rupture their eardrum permanently... Of course, there's a lot of more lethal weapon in my bag. But I don't want to hit myself in this emergency situation... So I decided to do it with the safe weapon for me...

I quickly pack my things and then grab the two rod of Lyssa... I De-link the Rod of Lyssa and then grab the remaining Rod of Lyssa in the ground...

I keep it on my person and then started walking deeper into the forest...

There's going to be another bloodbath going in that area... Since the Deaf and Blind Wolves are going to get really aggressive... And the Wolves that touch the Rod of Lyssa is going to be enraged...

"Aaah~ This is fun!"

I'm well aware about the fact that because I kill a lot of monster tonight... There will be some consequences in my future exploration... Especially the next couple of days. Because when other monster see the scene of the slaughter, which has a high chance of happening... They're going to start their hunting mode... I need to get on moving as fast as I could so that I can avoid all of that unnecessary action.
