Chapter 77: Finally Leaving the Village.
Suddenly, distinct memories flooded my mind when she touched my head. How did she do that?
She pulled her hand away from my head after a short time.
“It’s done. Even if someone tried to find out, no one would know about this place,” she said to me.
After looking at me for a moment, she continued.
“Additionally, I have provided a map of the entire forest. I have even marked dangerous places where you should not go.”
“There are many terrifying creatures in the jungle, and even people outside of the jungle don’t dare to enter.” She stopped when she said that.
“I understand,” I said with a nod.
Once again, my eyes caught my reflection in the mirror. What can I say? I looked awesome. Moreover, my tail added to the allure of my image.
The ladies giggled again, but can I say something? I enjoy looking at myself.
After some time, everyone left, leaving me alone in the room.
After closing the door, I immediately thought of the menu option, and the menu screen appeared. After looking over my stats, I was immensely happy.

. While sitting on the bed, I recollected the memories Amelia shared with me. Now I know the entire forest with the tip of my finger, but the sight of a man startled me. It was an average-looking man with a good build.
“Who is he?” I wondered, but then I remembered that Amelia’s ex had been captured.
She wants me to free him, doesn’t she? It’s a joke, isn’t it?
In any case, let’s wait and see what she meant to say instead of jumping to conclusions.
I slept peacefully that night, and surprisingly, I did not dream of anything weird. After so many days, I finally slept well.
The knock on the door woke me up.
“Ah!” I opened my eyes slowly and saw Amelia walking into the room. I knew it was her. She is the only person who disturbs me without permission.
Almost immediately after sitting up, her hazy figure became visible as she stood in front of me.
My eyes were groggy as I asked, “What is it?”.
“I just wanted to talk with you,” she said as she stared at me.
I know the time has come for her to reveal the identity of the man.
As I turned my attention to her, all of my sleepiness disappeared. She hasn’t told me anything about her life for this long.
As expected, she began talking about him.
“You must have seen the image of a man; his name was Adrian.” She took a deep breath as she continued.
“Would you be able to help me?”
“Help me for what?” I asked her as I stared into her eyes.
Her eyes turned away and, after some hesitation, she finally explained what I was looking for.
“I still don’t know if Adrain is alive. Can you help me find out what has happened to him? Because you are the one person I can trust.”
Her eyes are filled with tears; she must have missed him terribly.
I let out a sigh of depression. It seems that I cannot replace him in her heart.
“Fine, but could you tell me what happened?” I asked. It breaks my heart when I see tears in her eyes. As long as she is happy, I am fine with it.
She told me her story that morning.
By almost afternoon, it was time to go. Few people knew I was leaving. They were all busy working. Amelia, Diana, and Granny were the only ones at the entrance. Ah, Liam was also there, standing at a distance, watching Diana intently.
While I spent some time with Diana, I am not sure when I will next see her. I will do my best to get stronger soon.
“Are you ready?” Amelia asked.
I nodded to her.
Earlier, she told me, she would teleport me to another place far away from the village.
In a moment, Diana jumped into my arms and started sobbing.
“Will you return?” I heard her sobbing voice.
Wait, why does that sound familiar? A scene from my dream flashed in front of me. Both her voice and scene resembled that in my dream.
It’s just a coincidence, isn’t it?
“Don’t worry, it will only be a matter of time. I will be back and would take you with me. Don’t be sad.” I patted her back as my body responded to her question.
In any case, I can’t say anything; I know how she feels.
“Take care of yourself,” I said to her, and then I nodded at Amelia.
Granny sighed as she said, “I know it was hard, but I think it’s best for all of us. You will get stronger, you will know a lot more by seeing the world.”.
A smile appeared on my face as I patted her hand and replied, “I’ll be back again.”.
Afterward, I heard Amelia’s voice
“I want you to keep in mind what we have already discussed. You must not die in the jungle. There are many places where you should not go to. And, if possible, try to find him”
I nodded when I saw her raise her hand to me.
A second later, the view changed before me.
In the jungle, I was standing in the middle of nowhere. Trees surrounded me, and insect chirps filled my ears.
“What a familiar place?” I mocked.
“But where exactly am I?” I asked myself when suddenly the map of the entire forest appeared before my eyes, with a red dot in the middle.
A thought crossed my mind as I saw the red dot.
My mind was suddenly filled with Eve’s voice.
“Yes, that’s you”
