Chapter 78 Life Is Like A Box Of Chocolates
The crackling fire created shadows as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the green forest.
Dawn arrived.
The time when the world awoke and brought along inner peace to a man\'s heart.
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Harry gently twirled the wooden stick around and looked at the fire burning infront of him, the bird started to release an intriguing smell.
The smell of burned meat.
He swallowed. He hadn\'t eaten in ages, his points had sustained him for a long time now.
And not to mention the whole time travel bullshit...
The morning mist enveloped the surroundings, having just arrived with the dawn, the sun had yet to melt the moisture out of the land.
Calmly dousing the fire, Harry took the stick and sat to the side.
It had been about 1 hour since he had started his walk and when he felt tired, he caught a bird and now he was here sitting and cooking while butt naked.
In the middle of this vast forest.
He chuckled and started to eat, it was hot, so he gently bit each small piece, piece by piece, the meat sunk into his senses.
He savored it.
Gulp, he gulped the whole thing down within mere minutes, a bird as big as a whole chicken.
Burp~
Patting his stomach, he fell back on the moist grass and looked up at the sky, the forest was still quite noisy and it was probably a bad idea t have burned fire here.
But yeah, what could go wrong?
In any way, his main body had to awaken first before he headed deeper though; it was better to make himself fit before he walked.
As of now, his body was too much of a liability.
And this place seemed safe, whereas the forest deeper will be rather unpredictable.
As he thought, that old movie scene came to his mind... Ah! Exactly, how nostalgic...
Shaking his head in mirth, he used his hands as a pillow and took a gentle nap.
Some birds came and rested near the rocks.
Little creatures stole the bones he threw away.
Harmless ants crawled on his skin and went past.
The world started to brighten up on its own, the sun was soon out, but the green and roof-like leaves gave him shade.
His heartbeat turned calm as he went to sleep.
The world didn\'t disturb him in any way...
...
Opening his blurry eyes, Harry looked around, he was in the royal bathroom. Tiredly standing up, he stumbled out of the bloody bathtub and went to the side.
Sitting down on the floor, he shook himself awake and blinked.
Two memories joined together, two parts became one.
The other part of him also woke up from his slumber and looked at the world surrounding him.
Two points of view combined.
"A clone huh?" they muttered, amused.
Shaking their head, "Rather useful," they said and then chuckled, "Like a mirror," they echoed.
Turning away from the mirth of the situation, Harry then focused on his adventurous self\'s issues and mulled, "I am too weak," they muttered.
Standing up, he went to the shower and cleaned the filth out of himself, the blood slid out of his body, and in a jiffy, he was clean.
Using the towel to dry himself, he walked out of the toilet and closed the door behind him.
He was naked.
Truly speaking, unusually so, he was not in the mood for lust today.
He had a lot of questions that still needed answers and a similar lot to prepare.
Not to mention he had to answer his family\'s questions too.
They were all too tired yesterday.
Dressing himself into his normal pajamas using his ability, he walked to the side and seated himself on a corner chair.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm \'System,\' he called in his mind.
A dark screen appeared infront of him.
He peacefully scrolled past and clicked on a particular tab with a smile, the system had lost its intelligence but that was not much of a deal for him as of now, for now, what mattered was the clone:
Strength: 1.0
Defence: 1.1
Agility: 0.1
Stamina: 0.2
"Weak as fuck, huh?"
He then turned towards his pleasure points and shook his head, it was below 1 point.
I hadn\'t penetrated Valeria yesterday after all...
Looking towards the three people dumbly sleeping without a care, he considered the option of a gentle wake up.
But no.
He was tired of the monochromity of such lust.
Sighing, he opened a drawer near him and took out a piece of paper, with a smile, he unfurled it and looked at its insides.
Mystri,
the map of this majestic continent revealed itself to him.
The yellowed paper showed the world he was about to explore, he etched each part into his mind, almost as if he was using the [World of Mind] gift.
Of course, he wasn\'t using it.
And he had no plans to.
He will not reactivate it before knowing about that eye. And for that, he wanted that Gu.
Shaking his head, he pinpointed the clone\'s location, The Forest Of Lust.
The forest where the Lust family was centered around.
He looked around it, so if I went North for 2 more hours, there is a small settlement and if I went South, there is a waterfall...
Uh, that was a hard choice but the settlement was better to see the world for himself.
He smiled and then curiously looked at the whole map, it was a lot of data.
And it was supposed to be really hard to get such a detailed and big map in this world; luckily, he was royalty.
He smiled and then looked for the academy, and frowned; that will take some time to reach it...
The city with the academy was located all the way towards another part of the continent.
If he had to guess, it would be around 600 kilometers... two weeks if I walked straight?
He then looked at a place in between both, "Jumbo city?" what kind of name is that?
It was quite a big city.
It was the midpoint of his journey, he should reach there in a week if everything went well.
Mulling over it, he frowned, \'I should have taken some money with me...\' That was a mistake.
Now he can\'t get a room when he reaches there...
Uh, I hope there are some bandits on the way...
Hopefully.
If he had a horse, he could have reached Jumbo City in just 3 or 4 days... What a shame....
