Chapter 3 start: Normal looking tree
” I feel satisfied, but I won’t get overconfidence since even if I have all these power there might be other with a power that counters mine. ”, whisper ben trying to solidified his thought for the future. ’ Now the fun part. ’ Ben smiled the widest smile he could, feeling the trill from the versatile possibility this power emit.
’ I want to test if I can copy Kamehameha? Don’t know if the stamina will take its toll on me, but like they said if there is no failure then there is no success. ’, thought Ben, planning his path of being powerful. ” But first I had to somehow make some kind of soundproof since this experiment would definitely be loud. It also is laughable how I haven’t died from being noisy, despite how the data warn about it so seriously, maybe he’s just trying to scare me. All is good though, because I was just so excited to care at that moment and it could’ve been my end. Now that we are talking about the animal, other than the rat and rodent, I wonder why I haven’t seen a single animal or any type of lifeforms present in this large jungle. ” Mumbled Ben disturbed by the oddest of this forest.
Ben decided to walk through the silent and haunted jungle, with bushes and tree everywhere in sight. After walking for an unknown period time, Ben could feel that there is someone watching him, many of them it seem. ’ I am scared. I don’t know if am hallucinating, but these damn trees seem to be looking at me, adding more creepiness factor to their human-like face. All of these just screamed danger to me. ’ Ben thought while treading cautiously through the jungle, brushing aside some blockade he encounters.
Ben concern is not unfounded though because once the sun start to set, the tree starts to wiggle and vibrate. Like they are trying to pull themselves out of the ground. This freak Ben into a run, the best run in his life. Obviously after a minute of the full-on sprint, Ben came to a stop, tired and fatigue visible on his face. ’ what was that? Good thing that it seems there is some type of power holding it down or it’s a game over for me. ’ Ben thought back to the event that unfolds.

” Now that answer my question, it seems that whatever type of tree they are, were scaring away all the animal. But for what purposes? ” Ben question, but after a long time thinking about the answer, he could only come to a conclusion that all the theory he developed, needed him to further explored the forest which is not an available option for him right now when the sky is going dark. So he drops the matter and focused on the problem at hand.
’ Shelter.. um.. I guess that could work ’ thought Ben mysteriously. He proceeds to find a safe looking tree, that looks normal compared to its peer. Then mutter a command while pointing at it, ” the tree I am pointing at has no hole, it’s false! ”. After a long silence past and nothing happen, Ben question, ” Why aren’t the damn power working?! ”. So he goes into his thinking form, balancing his head in his palm, and the elbow on the thigh. ” sigh.. Maybe I am not being specific enough, problematic indeed, but rational since everything has a hole in it. Let’s try again, this time being more specific. ” Ben said, solving the problem.
Pointing at the normal looking tree, he ordered: ” the tree that I am pointing at, there is no hole for a shelter that I could use, that’s false! ”. The sentence utter from Ben seems to have some kind of mysterious power to it, slowly forming a 1-meter hole and an oval shape shelter inside the tree. The piercing screaming coming out of the tree also testify to the fact that it is indeed anything other than normal. The staring Ben obviously notice this abnormality, and couldn’t help but break a sweat from the possibility of him getting near to it. ’ that’s not what I expected... well this just warn me that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, else you could die if you did that in this world ’, thought Ben reminding him the cruel reality of this world.
Ben pointed at the tree and uses his power again to make sure that the tree is for sure death and safe, before going into its remaining corpse to have a good night rest. Too tired to think about the experiment, he drifted off into the darkness. Waiting for the exciting tomorrow to come.
