15 Investigating what happened in the tribe (1/2)

Rus slowly opens his eyes while his eyelids tremble a little, he feels the cold of the wooden floor in the left half of his face, he lifts the upper part of his body slowly, once seated, he looks around with a cloudy look. After checking that there is nothing different in his house, he looks at the floor, Rus sees that the dark red dust and the bag of stones are in the same place. That red smoke keeps coming out of the bag as he normally does, but he sees something that baffles him, the smoke that comes close to him, It is not absorbed by his body, stops only 4 centimeters away as if there is something that prevents smoke from passing that short distance.

”...And now what happened to my body?” Rus is already starting to get used to something strange happening with his body, all he expects is that none of the changes his body experiences will kill him. Rus stands up and stretches his arms to see that everything is fine with his body. He has not finished seeing how much his body has improved since the drop of bright blood entered his body, he already knows that his speed is more than triple his original speed and that his basic senses have also greatly improved.

He looks through the holes in the ceiling that the sky is a little red, but especially blue ”How long have I been unconscious?” Rus looks at the sky in detail to know how long he has been unconscious, he knows that when the sky is completely dark red, that means it is about to get dark, when the sky is light red and the majority is blue, it means that it is still noon ”Due to the color of the sky, I would say it's noon” He usually gets up earlier to go to the mountain, but now that it is so late, he can be punished by the guards or it should be if everything in the tribe continues as usual. As Rus knows that the tribe had serious problems at night, he doubts that anyone is interested in seeing if he has already climbed the mountain or not.

Rus does not want to stay home without knowing what is happening outside the tribe, although it is true that it is dangerous, although he thinks it is better than waiting in this place since it is possible that if he has bad luck and the tribe has lost against who attacked at night... The next one to be attacked will be him since although it is true that his house is in a very remote place of the tribe, it is inevitable that in the end, they will find his house. The biggest problem is that there will not only be 1 enemy, but there may also be many and if that happens it is impossible for him to escape.

With an air of determination and confidence in him, Rus takes the bag of stones and takes out 10 stones. He already learned from his previous mistake, so instead of hiding the stones under his bed, this time he will hide it under the floor. Rus easily lift a board and places the 10 stones inside. He is not interested in knowing why the smoke does not want to be absorbed by his body. He feels some pity when he sees the red dust on the floor, shakes his head and walks with quick steps toward the door. Just as he was about to open the door, a roar suddenly echoes in the house ”Grrrr!” ”Brrrrr!” Rus looks at his stomach with surprise, he had completely forgotten that he needed to eat. He cannot be blamed since his body changed, Rus stopped feeling hungry, so he completely forgot to eat.

”Ughh, Ceger said he wasn't going to bring me food again” He rubs his stomach with a helpless look. Rus is baffled as to why now his body began to feel hungry. He wants to investigate the reason, but now what he really needs is to know the state of the tribe. Anyway, Rus is grateful that his stomach has sounded right now since when he looked at it, his hair covered his eyes, so he realized that his hair was still red! He quickly activates the skill of the magic card, the moment he activates it, his hair turns black again, although he can't see his eyes, he also thinks about changing them. Rus sees that the smoke is absorbed again by his body the moment he activates the skill. He sighs in his mind and leaves his house without worrying about the smoke.

Rus looks around cautiously, there are some houses larger than his own in the surroundings, all those houses are mostly abandoned, there are some that are occupied with some people, although these people are people who rarely leave their homes or are out of the tribe doing business or maybe they are already dead.

Since he was forced to live in this place, he wanted to live in one of those abandoned houses, but the guards never allowed it. The only good thing about this area is that it doesn't have to stand the eyes of the people of the tribe. Rus takes a deep breath and walks the same path he passed last night.

His mind is calm with the pill, so he can concentrate completely on observing his surroundings without dulling his movements due to the fear of being discovered by some enemy.

Soon he arrives at the street where all those corpses were lying ”...Nothing?” Rus does not see any corpse anywhere, he cautiously approaches that street to see better, but he still does not find a single spot of blood. Any normal person would not notice anything since it really seems that no one has died in this place, but Rus is different, he still smells the thick smell of blood that is impregnated throughout this street.

Rus walks slowly to the place where he vomited that black blood and where the old man's body was. He leans in to smell better, in fact, the smell of blood becomes even stronger as he brings his face to the ground.

While Rus concentrates thinking about why there isn't a single body or at least one spot of blood on the ground, he suddenly hears the sound of a door opening! Rus quickly looks in the direction where the door opened, he sees a woman who seems to be over 30 years old who looks nervously around her, the moment she sees Rus, her face becomes incredibly pale as if she had afraid of something.
