Nang maramdaman kong nawawala na ako, I transformed myself back in my human form. Then I waved my hand on the air, causing the mist to dissipate into thin dust.

I roamed my eyes around.

I am standing on a pale greenish ground. The air carried me in a vast grassland. These grass are not tall, they could only reach up to my feet.

Sa sobrang lawak ng lupain na ito, hindi ko halos makita ang dulo.

This place was surrounded with tall tress. Kumbaga, patag ang nasa gitna habang napapalibutan ito ng mga malalaking puno.

I looked up. There was the crescent moon in the sky, illuminating the whole place. Kahit na gabi na, aakalain mong umaga parin sa sobrang liwanag ng paligid. One would assume it was daytime only if there is no moon hanging above.

After looking at the surrounding, a thought appeared in my mind.

I picked the Beaver Axe from my inventory and walked towards a tree nearbu. Then without hesitation, I swayed the Axe and chopped it on the trunk.

"Craakkkkk"

This Beaver Axe has 35% power of cutting down a tree. The higher the power it has, the more easier it is to chop.

The tree produced a creaking sound, creating marks on the trunk, similar to a web. Tinamaan ko ito ng ilang beses. After that, the tree slowly fell down.

"Wooosh!"

Nang bumagsak na iyon, ang puno ay biglang nahati-hati sa iilang piraso kahoy. Walong kahoy ang nakahelera sa lupa.

Naging isang ordinaryong kahoy nalang ito. The woods was piled neatly on the ground. Its shape is in a long rectangular shape, similar to a block of wood I would often se when building an establishment.

This is what I have learned from Asbo.

When players uses Axe as a tool to cut a tree, the tree will immediately turn into a pile of wood. Usually, one tree will produce up to 6-8 woods.

On the other hand, if a player cut a tree using abilities, sword or anything that is not an axe, the tree will only fall down and will vanish after a while.

Nalaman ko itong impormasyon na ito no'ng nagtanong-tanong ako ng mga bagay-bagag kay Asbo. Habang lumilipad kasi ako kanina sa era sa anyong mist, since wala rin naman akong magawa, kinausap ko nalang itong si Asbo. By talking her, marami akong nalaman.

Along the way, pumapatay din ako ng monster if may madadatnan ako.

Nalaman ko nga rin kay Asbo na hindi na necessary for a player to eat since hindi naman nakakaramdam ng gutom ang mga players dito sa game. Hindi importante ang pagkain dito although there are certain foods out there that would provide specific buffs.

But most of the food here in this game has no effects. Doon ko lang din narealize na ilang araw na rin pala akong walang kain.

Moving on, nang makita ko ang mga nakahelerang puno, muli kong inulit ang prosesa sa pagputol ng puno kanina. I swayed and chopped on the trees around me. Lumipas ito ng ilang minuto hanggang sa huminto ako sa pagputol. Ramdam kong sapat na ang nagawa ko.

Tiningnan ko ang mga nakahelerang kahoy sa lupa. Madami rin naman pala ito dahil na-occupy nila ang space dito. Hindi naman siguro illegal ang ginagawa ko, 'di ba?

When I felt it was enough, I crouched on the ground and touched the woods. Immediately, it vanished on my sight and I could a hear a 'ding' in my mindspace.

"You have collected 80 pieces of woods."

Naglakad ako pabalik sa malawak na lupain nang matapos ako sa aking ginagawa. I looked around and there, I found a good spot. Hindi ito nasa gitna ngunit hindi rin naman ito nasa gilid ng lupain na ito. Nasa saktong pwesto lang kumbaga.
