Chapter 29: C29 Comprehension

Amidst the trees of the wilderness, two groups of men were glaring at each other and were ready to devour one another.

One was headed by a lady while the other was headed by a one-eyed man.

The former group has a total of thirty-three members and most of them are females. But despite that, they could not be underestimated.

They have great teamwork and their abilities are not ordinary. While the latter consists of a mere twelve members.

Three of them, including the one-eyed man that bears Allen's mark while the rest are potential followers or had officially become Allen's followers.

"Cyclops, hand over the beasts that you have hunted," the lady shouted.

The one-eyed man is notorious for being vengeful and as a head of a notorious gang in the camp. But a few days ago, most of his members left when he told them that he was following someone.

The only ones that remain are the weak ones and the other two that also bear Allen's mark.

The weak ones feared that the one-eyed man might target them for revenge if they left.

At first, they did not care about the 'lord' that the one-eyed man kept on praising. But when they tried to pray, they noticed some results.

They doubted it at first but later on when they kept praying, they noticed that there was indeed a result.

Then, they kept praying until now. Although they have not realized it yet, they have become one of Allen's followers.

Meanwhile, the one-eyed man did not respond.

"I was wondering, why are you still one-eyed? Or maybe this lord of yours isn't able to heal you," the lady tried to mock the one-eyed man.

And indeed, the one-eyed man was enraged. Everyone can mock him but no one can mock his lord.

He kneeled and prayed, "my lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, I pray for healing."

Allen heard it and gave permission. The divine mark told him everything regarding the mockery of the lady, which displeased him.

With Allen's permission, the divine mark used some divine energy to heal the other eye of the one-eyed man.

The one-eyed man tears as he notices that his other eye is being fixed by divine energy.

It shone in brilliant light as an aura of life resonated from within his eye.

Teardrops fall from his eyes. In all of his memories, he was being bullied for being one-eyed, which is also the reason that influenced him to do unpleasant things, such as bullying, robbing, and more.

But Allen saw something on him and had decided to make him his follower. Although it was not good at the start, he was grateful to him.

Feeling all his emotions, the seed of faithfulness on the divine mark glowed and sprouted into a sapling that has one leaf and a root.

The root dug straight to Allen's inner world and connected to his inner body, which made the former one-eyed man feel close to his lord.

"From this moment, I shall be called Elioenai for my eyes shall only be for the Lord whom I serve," Elioenai declared with a voice filled with vigor and might.

Allen's other bearer that has the ability to control the trees nodded and spoke, "our Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, is indeed loving and caring."

Then, he clasped his hands and prayed, "my lord, may the roots of the trees grow and pierce the blasphemous individuals."

Just as he said that the roots of the trees grew and attacked their opponents.

He was named Drew. He came from a family which consists of wood-related ability users.

His family is known for owning the biggest planting firm in the base.

While the other bearer of Allen's divine mark is named Thomas. He came from a decent family but it was unlike Drew's family.

But despite that, they were best of friends ever since they knew.

From the start they were not part of Elioenai's gang, they were only paid by Elioenai for his revenge against Allen.

But it did not turn out as they expected. Allen caught them and planted his divine mark on them.

But whether for best or for worse, they accepted Allen deep in their heart. Well, it might be because of the divine mark and the seed of faithfulness, but it does not matter. They were Allen's followers in any way.

What Drew did is he incorporated divine energy with his ability, which augmented his control and power over the woods and trees.

The trees did not kill all of their opponents, some escaped but they did not do anything to chase them. They had noticed the beasts that Allen controlled. It was the beasts who chased their fleeing enemies and killed them.

…

Meanwhile, when Elioenai's seed of faithfulness sprouted and its root connected to Allen's inner body, Allen felt Elioenai's spiritual energy flowing through it.

The spiritual energy was nourishing his vague inner body, which sped up the formation of his inner body.

Allen smiled and was delighted by the outcome. His inner body will no longer be vague if he got some more like Elioenai.

After lunch, Allen bid farewell to Annika and went to the wilderness while riding one of the beasts that he had controlled.

He headed to a waterfall to relax.

He took off his clothes and jumped into the water for a bath.

The confrontation between him and the demonic beasts is still unclear. There were so many questions that were bugging his mind.

"Why are there demons?"

"Where did they come from?"

"Are they also like us who rely on humans?"

But he had no answer to these questions. But he knows that these questions will be answered sooner or later.

In the meantime, he will push forward and face what's coming. Why? Because that's life.

Life will give us many questions and all of its answers are in the future and they can only be found if we push forward.

If we face problems, we persevere. If we persevere, we become stronger. If we become stronger, life would be easier.

Then life will throw more problems which will make us persevere even more and so on.

With that, Allen felt closer to his authority, which he was not expecting.

Although he knew this at his peak, he only understood its significance right now.

Maybe it was because he was too high in the past and the things below had become blurry.. But now he was not at such heights, the things that were blurry in the past are clearer now.
