Locux proceeds to walk towards the masked man.
“Well, well, well. Look at what we have here.” Locux says as the man finally notices him.
“Kid, was this your plan all along? Did you lure me into a trap you milk sucking bastard” the masked man said while occasionally coughing up blood.
Locux laughs “Someone isn’t completely foolish.”
He slowly approaches the masked man one step at a time. At this time Locux resembled a Death God coming to reap lives and send the masked man to the underworld. Locux was unhurried and continued to smile while approaching the masked man.
“Why did you want to kill me? Who sent you here?” Locux asked
“Don’t you dare think of killing me. I am a follower of Young Deity Luke. You can only blame yourself for offending the Young Deity and incurring his wrath” said the Masked man hurriedly while backing away

"Young Deity Luke, I will remember this name."
It was at this moment that Locux took his makeshift spear and threw it!
The spear impaled the masked man’s leg.
“AHHHH” The man was caught by surprise as he yelled in agony. He prepared to defend himself and deliver a killing blow to Locux but at this moment another surprising thing happened!
Locux took off running in another direction. The man was confused but when he saw what Locux was running towards. Locux was running towards the severed hand that held the spear!
“What are you doing? STOP!” Yelled the masked man as he hurriedly tried to take out the spear embedded into his leg.
This was Locux’ s plan all along! Make a sound in East, the strike in the West. Locux had no idea if the masked man would see him going towards the spear and try to kill him in a fit of adrenaline filled rage so he needed to distract him. Locux relied on the fact that the man would allow him to come up close before releasing a hidden attack. With this taken into account, he planned to rely on the arrogance of the masked man in order to entrap him.
Locux went towards the spear at top speed and leaped to grab it out of the severed arm.
Following that Locux inspects the spear and looks towards the feeble struggling masked man.
He runs at full speed towards the man and delivers a fatal stab towards the head. The masked man tries to dodge but it is for naught as his head is punctured and his brain matter litters the ground.
Locux looks at this scene. He has only awakened in this jungle a few days ago without most of his memories and has already taken a life. He thinks about this deeply and realizes that showing mercy to the masked man would have been a foolish decision that would have brought about only death and suffering for him.
This is the jungle. A primal and lawless place where the only law is survival of the fittest. Those who disobey this law will only be met with a tragic ending!
