Book 2: Surviving In Another World From Zero

Chapter 27: The Cursed Forest

Despite being called a cursed forest these merchants forced themselves to pass through it instead of twisting it around, the reason was because it was faster and no bandits would block even if their losses received were higher than they thought.

When it was dark and everyone was silent to enjoy his dinner Ardhi explained everything to Latifa until she nodded slightly.

"If it wasn't me, I thought in the city no one would be able to dispel such illusion magic."

In other words Latifa admitted that the curse was very strong, it was not strange that they would go crazy if allowed to continue so.

Ardhi looked at the merchants around him, I think they had high luck from meeting Latifa on the way.

The next morning they all separated and Ardhi's group continued on their way. There are two options they can take that is by taking a detour or breaking through the forest.

Latifa suggested breaking through while Mery and Nisa chose to twist because of their desire to enter the battle.

For Purin he chose neutral, because basically wherever he would not mind.

"You all know what you choose? If the bandits defeat you they will definitely not hold back from harassing you, even if you scream you will only continue to feel pain, to the point of weakness and then be forced to do that again."

"Not that the word of this priest is so depraved," cut off Purin, but everyone knew it.

"He always thinks of crazy fantasy in his head."

"Again" added Mery.

"Let's decide with a scissor paper stone, after all no matter."

At Ardhi's suggestion. Latifa and Nisa will do it.

If they chose to break through the forest then they would try to remove the curse so that everyone would be able to pass through it and if they turned around they would end up defeating the bandits and in the end also everyone in the future could pass through.

Both have the same result.

Nisa collapsed down with a disappointed face.

"What's? I lost to you."

Latifa cast a protective magic to wrap them up with a ball of light.

Smoke mysteriously spread around him making it difficult for them to determine directions.

"Ardhi, did they also say about the mist nyan?"

"No, I'm sure they didn't experience anything like this."

Simultaneously the protector Latifa used was destroyed.

"Close your noses" said Ardhi but unfortunately they were all immediately unconscious. More precisely asleep.

Ardhi felt his head dizzy and within seconds he also lost his balance and fell to the ground unconscious.

He opened his eyes and realized that he was in a vast meadow, with Latifa, Purin, Mery and also Nisa in rabbit clothes.

"Well, why am I wearing clothes like this? It's a shame" shouted Purin who was replied by Nisa.

"Well, it's not usually more embarrassing."

Ardhi also has a strange appearance but he is not a rabbit but a wolf.

Latifa silently thought of taking the conclusion that happened until one thought came to her mind.

"It looks like we are stuck in a dreamland, maybe there is something to do with our clothes. For example, so we can get out of here Ardhi must prey on us and harass us simultaneously."

"Forget this guy, he's no longer helped nyan, Ardhi you have other ideas, right? Kyaaa. Don't pull my tail."

"I think people there might be able to help."

Ardhi pointed towards the front, on the vast field there was a human skull wearing a wedding dress was casually drinking tea.
