Since the king sent Gi Gi Orudo away, he has been going wherever he pleased, taking along any beast he found along his way. Gi Gi did not catch the beasts he found, however, and instead used the skill, Tacit Understanding, to make the beasts friendly and follow him on their own accord. Like this Gi Gi eventually managed to have a horde of beasts following behind him.

Thorn Dog, a large-sized beast with thorn-like fur. Big Eye, a bird with multi-colored feathers arranged in the shape of an eye. Mirage, a monkey that could fade into its surroundings. Thorn Fox, foxes whose fur would stand up like thorns when threatened. Dragon Turtle, a kind of turtle that could eventually become over 5 meters big, though currently, it was only 1 meter big.

Gi Gi took his horde of beast and headed toward a swamp.

Snow fell heavily on the distant mountains of the snow god. Gradually, the snow built up from the crossroads toward the foot of the mountains.

Damp clouds from the south crashed into the giant mountains of the snow god, showering rain over the foot of the mountains. Water permeated the ground, reaching deep under ground, as a great stream passed above ground, down toward the Forest of Darkness.

The bountiful rain and the warm climate has – for many millenia – shaped the great forests, causing much change to the beasts living in them.

After receiving the king's orders, Gi Gi headed straight up to the north, where the humidity was high and the marshlands, which the beasts loved, were many.

When Gi Gi thought of all the beasts waiting for him, excitement filled him.

He shivered every time he thought back to the king's words.

"We must become stronger. Henceforth, go to the north and increase your horde.

Gi Gi thought back to the king's words as he looked around his surroundings.

"The king is truly great. He even allowed me to do as I please," Gi Gi muttered.

Gi Gi interpreted the king's command to increase his horde as taming more beasts. What a generous king indeed to allow his subordinate to happily tame more beasts.

Of course, the king actually intended for him to gather goblin subordinates, but Gi Gi completely missed that part.

Gi Gi looked around him as he happily hummed.

Meanwhile, the triple head he was riding on was whispering to itself.

What do you think? The leftmost head asked.

I think he's got this whole thing wrong. The middle head said.

Isn't there anything to eat? The rightmost head said as it searched its surroundings.

In the end, since they wouldn't be disadvantaged in any way, the leftmost head and middle head stopped bothering about Gi Gi's misunderstanding, and they searched the surroundings for some food just like the rightmost head.

"Is that..." Gi Gi muttered, causing all eyes to gather.

The area up ahead was a swamp. The grasses were moist and on the rotting woods were moss growing. Vines hung from the branches up above that blocked the light of the sun, wrapping themselves around trees, obstructing one's vision. It was in such a place that Gi Gi saw something mysterious, causing him to open his eyes wide in shock.
