Chapter 15 - don't...forgive me

In a desert , a dot ... No , a figure was moving toward a cacti field .

Sun was setting wich was best time to go hunting since It's not so hot and not so cold in addition was a time for both hunters and preys to come out .

He looked at cacti , they were green however some of them had red colour around like they were bleeding.

Tristerix , a parasite flower that sucks nourishment from cacti and burst out and tire flesh of cacti in very dazzling manner after maturing in it's prey flesh , since they are red , It looks like blood on cactis .

Anyone with healthy mind and body won't cross from this path however Lily was different, He has adorable flower attribute therefore they won't attack and even have a sense of kinship since he too was leeching off people of camp and eventually just kill them in the end just like this flower .

' I am a parasite, too '

Now that I think about it , didn't I have a attribute named cobra lily wich is a carnivorous plant that emits nice scent wich attracts bugs and traps them , confuse them and eventually kill them .

It is so much similar to my name , they both have lily and an animals name at first which both are poisonous or predators.

Spider lily was symbol of death and a poisonous flower .

He sighed as he passed toward next mound where salamander lived .

He was thinking about a lots of things , about how he would return and about... Off limit.

Off limit is limited time one can stay in infected land .

When someone gets send to infected land , They have two bodies , one in infected land and one in earth . The more you stay in infected land, your body in earth slowly disappears . When body on earth completely disappears , It will get mixed with body in infected land in addition get imprisoned in this horror-full place forever.

Time limit is different from person to person but average is 60 days wich passed yesterday. Fortunately he knew place of the gateway but couldn't get it and after this hunt, he is going to risk it tonight.

His thoughts stopped after he understood He has arrived where salamander was , He closed his eyes and focused on his surrounding .

Sensing his surrounding, their emotions, their perspective and ... Until he found it .

He threw a piece of meat toward it and it suddenly appeared.

A yellow and orange salamander, 1/5 meters , long tale with eight legs , four top , four below with three eyes .

It got closer and closer however Lily didn't move nor escape nor attack . He just stood there , looking at it . Salamander looked at him and sniffed meat , it's eyes shined as it started eating quickly, why it didn't attack ? Obviously because of meat and adorable flower attribute.

Of course, me being a part of nature doesn't mean they won't attack me, nature is kill or get killed, simple right ?

Lily stroked salamander's head and smiled pitifully .

" You know what, salamander? You are scary and frightening but have such naive and beautiful heart . Tell me give you an advice"

Salamander stopped eating and looked at him with his terrifying eyes that glowed naively .

" If someone is kind to you , that person is a fool or scheming something. You understand what I am trying to say , right ? And the person who helps you a lot and tell you to only trust in them is the person you shouldn't trust "

I could feel it's emotions , trust , salvation, submit , He didn't want to know it's emotions but attributes can't be turned off .

' Maybe this is a burden that I have to carry my entire life '

He raised his sword however salamander didn't move even though he saw it .

"Therefore don't make such mistake in your next life , I hope you won't be born as a monster again ,Please don't.... forgive me ."

He closed his eyes .

Slash

Blood spattered everywhere , his face , clothes and sand and flowed like a river .

His red eyes were cold However deep inside that demon-like eyes were pity, sadness, spite of this world and ... despising Himself for becoming a puppet of it .
