Chapter 261 The Chase III (2/2)

I kept running while always moving my eyes below and front, I dare not to rest my eyes even for second as I know quite well one mistake and I will be dead by the Reaper's blade.

I had personally experienced the terror of it and I don't want to experience such a close shave with death again.

From the speed I run, I will need a whole night to cross the forest but that's not I am worried about, I will able to cross this night with help of many potions I brought, I even have some potion which helps to relieve mental and physical facing.

What I am worried about what came after the forest, I will have to cross twenty kilometers more after the forest to reach the boundary of the region 4.

That twenty kilometers area is small wasteland which had no trees only plain ground without any vegetation, that area will be the real arena of my survival.

As these dense tall trees in the forest are acting as afield between me and the reaper but once this shield is gone, I would have to face the wrath of the Reaper directly without any obstruction.

I am hoping that feeling of limit breaking came again but there no such luck no matter how much try.

As times passed by I started to feel pain under my legs, first, it was slight but as the times passed by it increased to the level that taking every jump had before painful.

It is worst in the sole of feet as that is where ignite the fire jets, if not for me drinking life potion now then, then the pain would get a lot worse.

Normally I ignite fire jets for three hours at most but now It had been six hours since I've been running and probably have to run ten hours more, I don't think even life potion help then for pain at that time, I have to drink those sedative potions that I have.

I rarely used the sedative, only when I really need them but this time I really need them, this time I will not have to drink sedatives of one type but the several types.

”Zzzzz!” 'Sky Steps!”

Suddenly I noticed the movement of Reaper as it tried to climb a tree but when it was halfway into climbing the tree, I had high in the air where it could not reach me.

It had no choice but climbed back as I jumped several trees in front of it, in its frustration it started to strike several trees which fell of one another.

After letting out frustration, It again started followed me without stopping.

Times passed by and as the times passed, I started feeling the pain that I barely able to bear not only that I became tired physically and mentally.

Seeing no choice, I started to drink several potions that not only whisked away my pain but also made energized both mentally and physically but these potions effects did not last long as I had to keep drinking them every hour to maintain my peak performance.

As I keep drinking more of that sedative potion my body started to crave them more as It is instinctively known that even slight delay could make pay the price that I will be not left alive to pay.

I kept drinking potion despite knowing, that when I stop I will face the effect lot worse that I am feeling right now but I couldn't care less about that as only because of this potion I am running at my peak, if not I would have succumbed to the pain and fatigue hours ago.

”Finally!” I said happily when I saw first rays of dawn twelve hours later of my running but my happiness did not last long, half an hour later when the sky had become bright enough, I saw the wasteland for the distance.

It will take me a maximum half an hour to reach the end of the forest and that is when my real running will start.

My survival will depend on my efforts and some luck, if I failed then I will embrace the angel of death finally.
