Chapter 3: Chapter 3 - Entrapment
He filled with ecstatic emotions after seeing his master in flesh. He wants to tell how he feels, he wants to tell his story to her.
He wants to say that he is her pupil from the future.
"Actually, I am," he whispers which only can be heard by her and himself — he wants to tell her about his story. However, before he continues his words, a beep sound and holographic sentences appear on his retina.
*Beep*
[Warning: You have been cursed by Phoenix curse]
He frowns his eyebrows, he knows that word 'curse' itself never mean good things, "what is that mean."
[Phoenix curse (Violet): The subject of the curse will immediately die when other knows that he come from the future or tell others about future events]
He stupefied after reading those explanations, it seems simple at first glance — a curse that forbids him to tell people that he knows something about the future. However, this sentences makes him wonder — did someone had the same advantage as him in his previous life, but can't tell people about it either? It's plausible, but if that's true — the fact that humanity still extinct after receiving that advantage make him shudder.
"Um, did you want to say something?" Emily says after seeing him became silent abruptly.
"No, sorry. It just your face is identical with a deceased friend of mine," he says with a helpless smile.
'I'm sorry, it seems I can't tell you about myself.'
"It's okay, I understand that she must be very precious to you," she says with a kind smile.
"She is," he says with a longing tone.
Their talk got interrupted by a shout from someone in the group — a man's calling them, "Oi, both of you. Come here, we need to talk about what we will do."
Elias and Emily stop their conversation and go to where they gather, they talk about something like moving together to find the nearest human settlement. Some of them, talk about gathering water and food for their journey. Their atmosphere is laid-back, even though earlier, they agitated by sudden transport.
They still think that they're on earth, and transported here by some government secret project or some spooky phenomena. However, they don't think it deeply, what important is they can get out from this situation quickly — they don't know this world's danger yet. It's not their fault, this forest has trees which bear many fruits that can last for a while. There isn't enough reason to fight others — yet.
They lucky to got transferred to this quiet place, at this moment some unlucky people even got sent directly to monsters den.
Elias wants to explain where this is and possible danger here without telling his future knowledge to them.
However, before he let out his words, a shriek coming from the bush. Even though they act laid-back earlier, everybody become tense and looking towards bushes after hearing that strange sound.
Kyaaak!
A tiny green monster with deformed looks appears from that place.
"Goblins?"
People recognize it from movies they often watch in the earth — Goblin, a weak green monster.
Everybody become wary, while Elias' faces became pale after start remembering about what happened at first day after transmigrated. He grabs Emily's hand and whisper, "we need run from here, Emily, follow behind me."
She looks at his grave expressions and nods.
He looks around and finds they got surrounded by goblins, even though he can't feel their presence but from his vast experience, he can faintly notice goblins traces. It seems that one just baits to make them lower their guard. However, they don't know that human never sees real goblins and make them wary instead.
"Fuck, what is this?"
"Are we even on earth right now?"
People start shouting to one another, thinking about what they must do to this weird green monster.
"Hey, that thing is slowly walking towards us."
"… What?"
They step backward slowly, distancing themselves from that goblin.
They all frowned.
Kiiiik!
They surprised after hearing another shriek behind them, they look towards their back and notice a gory scenery — one man got stabbed in his neck by a goblin. One by one, goblins come out from their hiding, those goblins concluded that humans are an easy target — their looking-down expression is visible from their snicker.
At this point, everybody realizes that their life at risk if they stay here any longer and how grave their situation is. Suddenly, everyone starts running away towards that one first goblin — a human instinct to escape from the place with least risk.
However, that opening is created deliberately by those goblins — to make illusion there is the safer route and entrap many preys at once.
Meanwhile, Elias grabs Emily right hand and run towards the opposite direction from those people.
'First I need to get out here first,' Elias thought.
He didn't tell those people to follow him because he knows that he can't protect them from those goblins. Besides, their worths as preys will diminish for those goblins when they separating from the hordes.
Elias took a though stick on the ground and rushes towards unprepared goblin, the goblin who never expected that a prey dares to attack them, got stabbed in the head through his eyes — the goblin dead, drop down into the ground without even knew how.
In the spot where the goblin dropped, a tiny rune appear. Elias takes that rune with his right hand while his left hand still moving — killing another goblin from a sharp weapon he took from dead goblin earlier.
At this moment, a part of Elias' body changed slightly. He touches his right ears, "Show me my status."

I'm ashamed for myself.
