Just as the High Priest said, the Kirinar Dark Forest is deadly dangerous.
It was a forest that even his tribe avoided—as the animals in there are bigger than normal and aggressive, the plants are filled with thorns and poisonous, and it was really easy for anyone to get lost in it due to its natural darkness.
But for Princess Diarbara, he went in without hesitation.
Equipped with leather armour, boots, gloves, and a big axe, Kai entered the dark forest.
Animals immediately attacked him. Jaguars, tigers, sun bears, black caimans, all kinds of wild apex predators—attacked him on sight. He fought them with an even more feral intensity. He had spent most of his life in the wild, and though he had changed, his body recognized this hostility.
Kai hacked the side of a tiger and opened up its belly.
He grabbed the lower and upper jaw of a jaguar and broke it with a wet crunch.
He wrestled black caimans and sun bears, killing them with brutality rather than swiftness.
