For several weeks a social media account has been in the spotlight of Mayan citizens around the world, because all the content contained in the account post is very unusual.


Starting from showing tricks n tips, teaching how to fight monsters properly, explaining what materials can be obtained from the monster, to an easy way to make weapons from monster materials.


But the most interesting of all the content on that account was the learning to create potions and poison bidders using magic herbal ingredients with a method that had not existed in the previous world.


Although initially considered as a fool because it is too unreasonable. But gradually more and more comments claiming to have tried it and get success.


[Thank you, my mom's been better because of the sara you gave her]


[It turns out that big rats can be eaten!, although it looks disgusting but believe me the meat is very tasty]


[Hahah! The praying mantis fluid contains parasites? I have already consumed it!]


[It is dangerous to carry a monster stone, it can explode!]


Lots of positive comments on each post of that account, making more and more people believe in the content on it. Until creating an account it gained a lot of followers.


Thanks to the knowledge of how to survive and fight the monsters. Humans began to turn against it to become stronger.


Slowly the world entered a new era.


But questions began to arise about the figure behind the account. Many parties began to find out about the identity of the account owner with various purposes.

“Yeah, I'll ride my horse. I'll drive it until I can't take it anymore.”


Budi continued to sing to pass the time, as he leisurely rode a horse on the very quiet streets.


The sky was shining that morning, it was the perfect time to leave home and go see the vast world.


True, finally after three months locked up in housing due to Outbreak, Budi who had prepared himself decided to try to see the world.


In addition to Pushrank being his mount, Roxy and Akita also come along. Both are currently inside a back pocket attached to the horse's back.


“Roxy, Akita see we've arrived!.” Budi exclaimed excitedly when he saw an archway that showed welcome in the city of Sawi. Seeing that made both dogs very happy.


Along the city entrance there are many cars parked haphazardly. Because you do not want to report Budi chose to make Pushrank walk on the roof of the car.


After a long walk towards the middle of the city Budi finally saw some people on the street, it means there is a refugee camp around the area.


Looking closely, he realized that the people he saw were carrying various weapons made from monster materials.


Among the weapons carried, the most frequent were weapons from horned rabbits because the monster material could be used to make a spear.


“Halo good afternoon.” The young man tried to greet the people he met, but they just looked at him in wonder. Getting that reaction made Budi quite depressed, though,


‘Socialization has indeed become a very troublesome thing.’ he said in his heart.


But unlike Roxy and Akita, both became so popular when they appeared, people who saw them immediately swarmed to just caress the bodies of the dogs.


‘So I lost popular to the dogs huh.’ I started crying in my heart.


The arrival of Budi is a concern for many people because for months the city has not seen other refugees who come to the Sawi refugee camp.


“Hey, my friend, where did you get that horse?.” asked a man carrying a spear behind his back.


“I saved him when he was almost killed by monsters.” Budi answered while stroking Pushrank's neck, after which they returned to walking.


But the man did not let Budi and his friends go. Some people immediately blocked the Pushrank road.


“Come so why are you so rushed?.” the man said with a face full of smiles. Seeing that, I just took a long breath.


‘Finally a cliche scene will happen.’ I thought about what would happen next. The glory turned around then looked at the man with a full smile.


“What do you want sir?.”


The man laughed out loud then said, “Your horse is very good, can I lend it a minute?.” the man said as he closed his eyes and a smile that looks annoying.


Budi did not expect if he would meet characters such as petty villains, which are usually made just to make the reader emotional.


Budi's gaze looked around, he saw many people looking at him with faces of pity, while the people who were the men's conspirators looked smiling like fools.


‘Pity, it is only until the city he has met the Red Dagger gang.’


‘Now he will lose his horse.’


‘Come again a useless man, as long as a horse and two dogs. I wonder what she carries in her backpack.’


‘Today we get a very easy prey.’


With expertise (Hero Sense) Budi can hear whispers from people around. Some people feel sorry for Budi for meeting the Red Dagger Genk known as a trouble maker in the refugee camp.


While the members of the Red Dagger Gang themselves feel lucky because they see Budi like an easy person to bluff. They think they can take everything that you bring, but such thoughts turn out....


“Sure, why not.” Calmly get off his horse. Seeing that made the smiles of the members of the Red Dagger Gang widen to the point of almost touching the ears.


‘Hahaha... you weak man, he must be very scared when he sees us.’


‘Look at him he must have been trying so hard not to pee in his pants.’


‘Maybe we can use it to play later, hihihi..’.


The members of the Red Dagger Gang whispered while giggling, they tried not to laugh. While people who look around look at Budi with concern.


“But be careful, because Pushrank may not be used to having his back ridden by others.”


Budi patted Pushrank's neck with a smile of affection. Everyone who saw it thought that Budi was giving farewell to the horse.


Roxy and Akita are forced to step down, only to yawn bored. They surround Budi's feet as if to invite him to play.


“Ahahaha. Don't worry, I'm very good at taming animals as well as humans.”


With a triumphant smile the man climbed up Pushrank's back. ‘Dumb base, this horse is already mine now.’ thought, but when he tried to pull the horse harness, Pushrank did not move in the slightest.


“Hey, what's up with this stupid horse!.” the man kept pulling the rope as hard as Pushrank's therapy did not move.


“Hei stop! Don't pull it too hard, you can make Pushrank angry!.” I tried to remind her, but the man didn't care.


Pushrank ended up getting angry because the reins pulled were too strong. The horse steadied sharply the man who tried to ride it, instantly the man gasped in shock at feeling stared at by the beast.


Then in one blow Pushrank flew the man sitting on his back. Seeing that everyone was just speechless, they were very surprised to see the man flying so high.
