Finding the Sacred Tree

Dead and Alive

Shortly after that came the residents who had just returned from their places of worship. They seem to have brought equipment torturing each of them. It was seen that many people were carrying swords, whips, arrows. Ordinary people should not wear all of these. They should have had their permission before using that dangerous thing.

Looks like they brought it all to torment me again, but when it got to the square. They were greeted by a dead body. They were all shocked, unable to say anything more. Some of them vomited, even left the place.

"Cannot be. The most powerful master John in the kingdom was actually killed by a boy we tortured yesterday."

All seemed unable to move at all, they fell silent over the dead bodies of John and Geri. Then shortly after, there was one of the people who shouted quite loudly and advanced towards me while putting his sharp sword.

He ran away scared and angry. He planned to kill me even if he was going to die.

"It's unforgivable! It's unforgivable! It used to be Mr. Tapoc now Mr. John. You're supposed to die, Monster..!." The man stuck his sword in my stomach. I realized there was something strange in my stomach too, immediately looked down to check what was happening, and it turned out that there was a knife through my stomach. It hurt a lot, but I didn't scream at all. Maybe I'm used to being stabbed to make myself not want to scream at all.

Seeing that guy lunging and stabbing me so easily, everyone was motivated to kill me. They mounted their weapons and then advanced towards me.

Everyone beat me, stabbed me, slashed me so many times that at the end one of the guys slashed my head until my head rolled far enough away from my body. When I was cut off I could still see and think for 1 second. Even I could still see my body when I was rolling earlier.

I certainly did not fight when I was treated that way, after all this is my wish, which is that I want to die. After the citizens attacked me blindly, they stopped and tried to catch their breath again. They look very satisfied to kill me, but there are also those who feel guilty and maybe that person is the one who first killed someone.

Even after I died, they were still trampling me and kicking him.

"Huh...we what is this child's corpse?"

"Just throw away the river, I'm not going to make the child's grave."

"You're right, I don't want to make his grave either. Then who threw it away?"

Everyone pointed at the person asking. The person who asked could only be silent while saying.

"Of course, I'm going to throw the child's body into the river and you guys take care of the bodies, Mr. John and Geri."

"OK of course. We'll bury them properly."

Everyone started to do their own work. The man who took my body, took me very rudely. I was no longer treated as a human, but it was like a bag of trash. He carried my head by grabbing my hair and carrying my body like a sack.

He dragged my body and it made a trail of blood all the way. After reaching the river he threw my head first and then my body by throwing it like garbage.

When my body was thrown into the room. My body and my head were floating and it made the originally clear river turn red, but shortly after that the color was clear again because my corpse had been carried away by the river current.

The river flowed to the slums and when there the water also changed color because a lot of people in ordinary settlements and elite settlements throw their garbage into the river and usually the trash will continue to flow into the slums. When the garbage is there, usually the garbage will be concerned and make other garbage involved which makes the river there become cloudy because the garbage is never taken from the river.

Then after a few hours my body floated away in the stream. Suddenly there was a light shining down on my body, she was shining so brightly, even if it was night time it might look like the sun at night. There were no people there either, so no one knew that there was a bright shining light in the river.

Then shortly after the light illuminated my body, suddenly a kind of strange glowing object came out from my neck that was cut off. The strange object touched my severed head and then pulled it back into my body. That strange thing was like wanting to reunite my body.

then shortly after my head was in place, suddenly the gap between my head and my body re-integrated. Not only that, all my wounds that were on my body were also healed all in an instant. All the wounds and bruises on my body disappeared, even my head was fused again. After my body recovered completely, the Light that shone on my body disappeared and No one knew of the strange phenomenon, not even I myself knew because I did not seem to be fully alive yet. My soul is still somewhere else and my body is still waiting for it to come back.

*******

I was in a strange place. It's dark and there's nothing here. I stood there and did nothing. Then suddenly there was a speck of light in front of me. I didn't know what it was, but the light seemed to draw me closer. I walked slowly to the light. The closer, the brighter the light also gets. I kept walking and in the end I came to the front of the light.

When I was in front of the light, I was amazed because there was a very beautiful and nice place in front of me. There was a vast prairie with a very clear river, and also an apple tree that was very fruitful. Besides that, there is also a large tree that is very far from here. Although it is very far away, but the tree still looks very big from here.

If you look around it turns out that under the big tree there is a group of people who are walking to the trunk of the tree. I wonder who they are and what they are there for.

Then when I wanted to step inside, suddenly someone pulled my shirt from behind. I turned around to see who it was. Behind me was a long, black-haired child. I don't know who it is, but I squat to match our body size. I wanted to ask the boy something, but he spoke first.

"This is not your place."

"Hmm?" I tilted my head slightly with a slightly confused face.

Then the boy raised my hand and gave me a piece of paper. The paper contained a picture of a small seed. I don't know what those seeds are. But the seeds are similar to watermelon seeds, but also similar to broccoli seeds. Seeds are strange, because it was the first time I met seeds like this. Because I don't know what a seed is. I asked the little boy too.

"What is this grain?"

The boy did not answer my question and instead said something else.

"Good bye." The boy turned around and started walking away from me. I wanted to stop the boy, but suddenly there was a hole under me that made me fall into it.

Before I fell too deep, the boy said again.

"My hero."

I screamed and fell into that hole. Shortly after that...

"Yes...!" .....I'mawakened.
