Cotl:Rise of the Crownless God

Part 3:Encounter

I got rid of those thoughts because it will only distract me, I continued walking through the forest

I noticed a bunch of enemies running somewhere

I was of course curious so I followed them plus I still need experience in fighting anyways, they went to a opening in the forest where they suddenly stopped

I was behind the group in the shadows so I couldn't see what was in front of them so I moved off to the side where I can see what they are looking at

To my surprise it a lone fox who back was against a tree and shaking in fear

I saw as one of the enemies walked up to the scared fox and raise their weapon, the fox closed his eyes as he accepted him fate while crying

The enemy swung down into the fox, only to be blocked by me before I made a water katana and did water slash to cut deep into the enemy and then kicked them away as they bleed out

Welp that was something, now I got to protect a fox from a bunch of enemies this will be quite annoying I thought as I got ready for my hardest fight yet

This time there was 2 bowmen, 1 sword-tipped spearman, 3 small green caterpillars and finally a big green caterpillar like what did that caterpillar eat to get so big?!

The caterpillars and sword-tipped spearman rushed me as the 2 bowmen drawers their bows

Just before the melee enemies could get within attack distance I quickly dash to them and did normal slashes causing the enemy to get injured so I pulled out my glave in order to finish them

I went for the caterpillars since they would be annoying especially the big one so I chopped the small ones into pieces then ran over to the big one and did very deep slashes on its face which ended up kill it

I saw on the corner of my eye that the 2 bowmen were about to shoot me so I quickly ran over to the sword-tipped spearman and used him as a human shield, well humanoid animal shield

After he took the two arrows to the chest and died I rushed over to the bowmen as they are desperately trying to redraw the bow to shoot again, as I got close I noticed that one of the bowmen dropped their bow and suddenly pulled out a knife

I dodged backwards as they swung then chopped off their arm that had the knife with water slash

The bowmen grabbed the stump that used to be their arm in pain as I looked at the other bowmen in the corner of my eye

He was about to shoot, I took out my knife did a quick throw, the knife stabbed into the other bowmen's head and he fell limp

I looked back at the one-armed bowmen again

He looked at me in fear, I kicked him to the ground while making a water trident and then stabbed him in the chest while he was on the ground

After the battle I checked on the fox I saved earlier, he was staring off into space, I crouched down next to him

"Hey, are you ok?" I said

"..."

"Hello?" I said

"..."

"I guess your fine then" I said as I stood up about to walk away

"W-wait" said the fox

I turned back to the fox

"What?" I said

"W-who are y-you" said the fox

"..."

I don't know if I should tell him my name, well not like he can do anything if he tries something I will get rid of him

"Dan..., just call me Dan" I said

"Oh well Dan, I am Rob" said the fox who's name is Rob

"Ok...well bye" I said as I turn to leave

"Wait" said Rob

"What is it?" I said

"Is there anyway I can repay you?" Said Rob

"You don't need to" I said

"Oh" said Rob

"Will we ever see each other again?" Said Rob

"I'm not sure, probably not" I said

"Oh, well thanks for saving me, bye!" said Rob as he got up and left into the deep forest

"Bye" I said as I waved until he completely disappeared into the forest

Well that was something, I wonder where he went off to?

I continued to look for more enemies for the rest of the day until it was getting a little late

I should go back now I thought as I made my way back to my base

Time skip to when Dan got back to his base

I am back, not gonna lie that took a while since I got lost for a little bit I thought as I walked closer to my house

On the way to the base I happened to find some camellia seeds(red flower seeds)

I decided to take them since I remember that they can be used to make medicine for burns and scalds(searched it up on google) and also can be used to get rid of illness(I think the game made that up, for obviously reasons)

I went over to my farm to check on my crops, after I checked them I started to make more farmland so I can plant my Camellia seeds

After a while I finished and planted the Camellia seeds into the newly made farmland

I watered the crops then went to my house in order to chill till it was night

I enter the house as I looked around

I should probably add stuff in my house and make it bigger I thought as I went to my grass sleeping bag and laid down

I have a feeling that I will cross paths with Rob again...hopefully not though I thought as I started to drift off to sleep so I can be ready for all the work I'm about to do in the morning
