When I opened my eyes I was still in the forest. Ofcourse I didn't have my sack bag and my clothes were kinda torn. But I could feel the plank sticking to my hand. No it wasn't a plank anymore, it was a full blown shield strapped to my right hand. The shield was mostly metallic grey with dull orange stripes and dark purple in the middle.

"So, you're wake?" A grumpy voice called.

Two small and wrinkled eyes were staring straight at me.

"It's the old hag from before." I thought sleepily,
"Wait.. Who are you? " I stammered " I mean where are you? No, where am I? Why are you here? Who am I?"

"Slow down kid" she told me " I'll explain you everything."
I was confused out of hell. Like, weren't monsters following me? Didn't this hag disappear on the street? The light that glowed.?

"You're a Weeb right?" She asked, she was the the first person didn't say Weeb like it was a bad thing. "So, isekai is a normal concept for you."

"Uh-Huh" I muttered.
So she is saying that I'm in a different world. That's what isekai means- getting teleported to a different world. Mostly isekai's have a character trapped in a Video game.

"This isn't a game." She explained.
"Freak, is she reading my mind" I thought,
But I listened quietly, somewhere in the back of my mind I knew this is going to be life-changing.

"You are at Aldgaris, the country of Aldgaris." She started talking. " This country is filled with many mysteries and adventures. Every 50 years or so, 200 warriors are summoned from your so called earth. They are tested (in their own world) they get to choose their own weapons. And if they survives they end up here. Now the battle until 1 survives and becomes the new ruler of Aldgaris."

"So, I have two options" I thought " die or become the king of this world."
But killing people? That's not my thing. I don't mean I won't do it, I just can't do it. I'm so weak anyone of the 200 will whip my ass. I looked over at the lady. I couldn't read her emotions. But in her eyes I could clearly see my face filled with despair.
The lady handed me a back that looked much like my sack bag but it was black and red in colour.
"I like the second option." I thought
"Here, some supplies for you" she continued. " Now, you must find you own path, with that" she pointed at my new shield.
I turned to look at the shield. And when I glanced back the old hag was gone.
"Again, what's up with you?" I shouted.
I doubt she heard me.
"I'll just hide around, until everyone kills each other" I thought, " this could be my game plan. This is the only way out of this."
I checked the bag for her so called 'supplies'. It was nothing special by our world standards.
Just a change of clothes. 3 days worth of packed food "uh.., I bet it won't taste good." I thought.
And I was probably correct.
And a shield cleaner liquid
" Don't know if I need this" I thought.
I couldn't stay at one place. those supplies would have had run out soon.
So, I moved through the woods shifting the tree branches paving my path.
I walked for hours through the jungle. It was probably afternoon already. Because, my stomach began to grumble..
"I need some grub" I thought.
I opened my bag to check what those packets had.
"Hopefully something good" I thought.
I opened a packet and it had cream roll inside. I didn't mind eating cream rolls for lunch but it was kinda weird. Being in a different world and all I thought, I'd get to taste different cuisine.
But I decided not to think much about it and gulped down the cream roll.
As I walked through the woods pushing branches with my new shield. I heard a voice.
**Thump***
Like my shield hit a tennis ball.
Then there was a bit of a silence.
Something told me this was the silence before storm.
**Buzzz**
I could hear flies buzzing to my ear.
"This couldn't be right" I thought " why would flies be here"
Then I realised "Tennis ball"
I turned reluctantly to check what I had hit.
Yepp, it had to be a honeycomb.
A swarm of bees were already out for revenge.
But when I saw then they started dispersing,
"That's weird" I thought expecting an attack.
Then suddenly the bees started to grow in size. Until each one of them was the size of my face.
Their sting could've punched a hole through my body.
"RUNN" I thought.
And I started running. Surely those monster bees were following me. I was running as fast as I could, dodging their stings.
But I knew I couldn't keep running much longer.
"Think of a plan, Matt" I told myself. "What do bbees fear?"
"FIRE" I remembered, My dad once told me that, we can swat away bees using fire.
"But where do I get fire here!" I screamed.
"I don't" I realised,
I kept running.
"Plan B" I thought, " Get out of this freaking jungles.
**Bash**
A sting almost hit me.
"FOCUS, Matt" I thought.
Then I remembered the way, I outsoed those monsters.
I tried doing the same thing. I ran left to right, right to left. Turning at every turn I found.
No use.
The bees were still following me.
I had been running approximately for half an hour.
"God ,I can't take it no more" I pleaded.
I think God listened to my prayers for once. Because I saw an opening, or ending, ending of the forest.
I ran as fast as I could.
I wasn't in a forest anymore. But neither was this a civilization. I really wanted to reach a town or something. Where I could've rested for a while, and eat good,
"Whatever" I thought.
I turned back, the bees weren't chasing me anymore.
"Hush!!!" I finally relaxed
I took out Mineral water bottle from my back.
**Gulp**
Ahh, it felt so good drinking water. I cannot fully describe the feeling but, I felt like water is the best thing in the world.
"Hey there" someone called,
At first I was really glad I could finally meet a human that's not mad.
I turned.
"Yess" I asked.
"You, a Callen aren't you" he asked. Raising the point of his spear towards my neck.
"This can't be good" I thought.
