Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Just a small announcement that I will release at least 2 chapters every week, because god it is hard to translate this novel. So ya, enjoy.

Slowly and carefully, I found a relatively open place in the forest and moved around.

I poke around the ground with a stick.

I’m not trying to provoke the snake by poking it, but if you step into their territory without poking it first, you’ll be injured in an instant. No, it’s better if I just get injured, worse I may die of poison or something.

The only positive thing is that there is a trail that makes it easier to walk, does it mean that this forest was created by someone else?

Of course, I have to be vigilant overhead too.

It’s a common story, such as snakes and poisonous insects falling from the top of a tree. Of course, I don’t think I’m a clumsy person, but there are situations where someone hits his head against a thick branch … It’s a place where I can’t relax my guard.

Furthermore, I have to pay attention to the sounds around me.

If you hear a buzzing sound, it is a warning sound that there is a wasp nearby. Of course, there are ferocious animal footsteps and growls, as well as the sound of water and the sound of the soil collapsing … There are too many things to worry about.

Ugaaaaaaa! I scratched my head.

In the old days, I didn’t have to be vigilant about everything.

As long as I was careful about the number of people, I could spend my time without any worries … How nice it would be to have a nice bath and soak in the warm relaxing water right now.

“It’s too hard for modern kids to survive in this environment …but, how safe is it to sing a song while bathing in the forest.”

No, compared to the actual survival islands, this situation could be considered a blessed environment.

Half-finished but well-organized forests, edible plants, an environment that can be considered safe, and a place where I don’t encounter any dangerous animals. (TL: except for the rabbit)

In this situation, pro survivors should be able to survive with blindfolds.

However, I am just a high school student who has seen survival manga and videos here and there. To be honest, I have to say that it is difficult for me even in this environment. No, manga and videos are useful even though they have half-baked knowledge.

All the knowledge I have came from those survival fantasies, such as how to burn a fire, how to secure water, and how dangerous it is to sleep directly on the ground.

“Well, the battery of the smartphone is okay for the time being.”

I check the battery.

Because I’m using my smartphone to record the path I took. The reason is to ensure that I don’t get lost when I want to get back to the beach. I didn’t forget to mark the trees, but it’s still better to keep a record of it. When I review it later, Maybe I’ll discover some things that I didn’t notice while walking. Like a new edible nut for example.

Even so, It seems that there are no invisible walls that stop me from going further inside the forest.

I’m not sure about the distance I walked. But for sure I have been walking a lot longer than walking along the beach.

Even so, there was no limit to how far I could walk. Perhaps for the forest, there is no limit?

If so, it is a mystery why there is only a wall along the sea that restricts your movement.

If this is a game, it would be a so-called “insufficient level to explore”. Or the end of the map, there is absolutely nothing beyond this.

However, for some reason, the left and right areas were so narrow.

Perhaps there is a wall beside me if I move to the left or right now. I’d like to give it a try, but I don’t want to stray so far from the cleared path.

For now, let’s go straight. Given the time, I’ll have to go back to the beach, but for now, it should be okay to go a bit further.

As I rushed through the woods, It was finally morning.

I took a break on the way, but I think I was able to travel a good distance

“I managed to go through the forest … well, there is a towering cliff in front of me.”

Yes, I succeeded in passing through the forest. However, there is a cliff in front of me, looks like I can’t go any further than this for a while.

Looking around from side to side, the towering cliffs stretched out to the left and right, just like the forest. It seems that no matter where I go, there will be no end. Without a doubt, the cliffs and forests seem to be in parallel to each other.

Hmmm, apparently my adventure is up to here. Well, at least I’m alive

“Hmm, I explored the forest, but were there any hints along the way?” From waking up in the morning to noon. I rushed through the woods, but the result was a dead end.

Whether there’s anything along the way, I don’t think there was anything special. Well, I’ll need to check the recorded data on my smartphone later.

Did I waste my time exploring? No it isn’t really wasted, it can be said that there was only no new information? After all, there is no need to come to this side in the future.

I fell to the ground.

By saying that there was nothing, the tiredness that came doubled and began to grow. Oh, I don’t think I can move anymore.

But is this a habit? My eyes try to collect various information.

Is there a different path in the forest? Isn’t there a cave on the cliff? The shape of the clouds in the sky is in the shape of soft-serve ice cream, isn’t it?

And I was lucky to have that habit.

There was something that came into my sight.

It is partly buried in a cliff and has a strange shape.

I drag my heavy body and stand up with a shout of “Finally”.

It’s a situation where I don’t have much power, but I slowly walk to that place.

“Um … is this a “stone monument?” There is a hole in it that seems to fit something rectangular”

The written characters have already deteriorated and are likely to be unreadable.

However, I feel like I have to put something in this square space.

“This is not something that I can rashly touch. For the time being, that’s try to make out some of the characters.”

I try to decipher the characters that have been blurred.

“Is this the Japanese word “ear”? This is the Japanese word for “giving” oh! Combine them together I get the word ”fit”.”

As I read the letters, I knew that it was probably Japanese.

And, as long as there is the word “fit” near the square space, it may be that something should be put in there.

“I think I got it!” I felt a strange feeling of tension as I took out my phone, and I managed to fit the smartphone I had in my hand into the square space.

The smartphone fitted neatly.

I was a little skeptical that the size wasn’t a problem at all, but the next action blown away that question.

“Beep! I have confirmed your registration. Your device will be upgraded now.”

Suddenly such a voice came from my smartphone, my eyes lit up from hearing the sound.

What the hell is happening? What does an upgrade mean? Someone tell me! Someone should praise me for not shouting out loud!!
