Time passed so quickly, Hans and Gavriel had been in the Forbidden Forest for three weeks already. A week faster, because they run almost without rest. It only took them three weeks to reach the Forbidden Forest. Hans and Gavriel were seen panting with their bodies covered in wounds. Their cooperation was quite good in the Forbidden Forest. All of Halvir's advice and suggestions were very useful, plus the combination of Gavriel's tenacity and Hans' knowledge of body anatomy, made it easier for the two of them to overcome obstacles and challenges together. So far, they have gotten dozens of *Amber, mostly from Gavriel's work taking down the monsters. But, not infrequently, they also have to run from monsters that have very high levels, because they are unable to fight them. The monsters in the Forbidden Forest were huge and very strong. But, luckily, they just used instinct without thinking. They are just like wild animals in general. The thing that set it apart was the sharpness o
Anindira looked at Halvir with a swollen face full of tears. Halvir ventured to tell everything from start to finish. Halvir knew that the good times where there was only him and Anindira, sooner or later, would soon end. But, he can't continue to act selfishly. Anindira does not belong to him alone. Gavriel is one of the men who have full rights over her. Gavriel was Anindira's first spouse. Gavriel is the real head of the family in the Anindira household. *** ''Havi... so I've been wrong all this time?!'' Anindira exclaimed with a trembling voice, her face pale with guilt creeping through her veins. Anindira is shocked to hear everything from Halvir. She didn't know that Gavriel had always been by her side with him hiding because he didn't want to hurt her. So far, it turns out that Gavriel has sacrificed too much for her. Gavriel tries to save her, risking his life. However, she hates Gavriel so hard that he always has to hide. ''Dira... you were shocked at that time, you we
Above the sky, there is another sky. When someone is strong, there will always be someone stronger. She had also seen how brutal Hyenas were. She was holding her stomach that already looked round, plus the presence of her two daughters later, it would be even more impossible if she only relied on Halvir alone. Ezra explained more clearly and in more detail to them, that this harsh world obliges its men to be stronger. And it's not a choice, but an obligation if you want to survive. For the sake of principles and women who will give birth to their future offspring who will later continue the bloodline of the clan. Therefore, as women, they also have an obligation to regulate the harmony of a household so that it is not unstable and always balanced. That way, the men who become spouses will remain solid as a unit among partners sharing with women, even though they don't share a bond like men and women. ** ''The point is that everything is interrelated. You know that we also can't li
An exciting dinner with lots of laughter and joy after several days of sad Anindira is finally over. Ezra and the others have returned to their respective homes, leaving Anindira alone with Halvir. ''Havi, for how long will Hans and Gavriel leave?'' asked Anindira, who was lying in Halvir's arms. ''If it goes according to plan, they will come back in a month,'' replied Halvir while stroking Anindira's belly. Halvir liked the sensation of a baby moving in Anindira's belly. “They will come back... Don't worry! The combination of the two of them would be very good... They wouldn't be easily defeated just like that. Trust them! I know they have potential, that's why I don't mind sharing you with them,'' said Halvir, soothing Anindira. But unfortunately, some words hurt Anindira's feelings. "It's sad... To my surprise, I finally got used to those words." ''Sharing myself with other men... I've been like a trophy, but... I have to make peace with all of that.'' ''At the age of eightee
The water level is getting higher, and slowly but surely continues to rise. Halvir and Ruvi were the most aware of it. The dilemma in their hearts did not subside even though the intensity of the rain had fallen. The floods were already too high. However, the two of them couldn't leave the task of investigating this matter to a group of inexperienced teenagers amidst the threat of an invasion by giant snakes and crocodiles. Because most of those who were more mature had gone to the Forbidden Forest. The village now only leaves one adult male for each household to look after the mate they left behind. The rest, only the young teenagers of *Gold and *Diamond rank to assist the two *Emeralds in each Clan were left behind. ''Shit... I have a bad feeling about this...'' said Ruvi with a snort of annoyance to let out his frustration. ''You guys go first, patrol again, pay attention to even the smallest details, and warn the others too!'' Halvir shouted immediately, giving directions and w
Ruvi and Koza can hear clearly, that Halvir cannot leave Anindira now. Neither did they have the heart to force Halvir to leave him. Ruvi and Koza empathize not only with Halvir but also with Anindira, who needs more attention. ''Halvir you hear me... I'll go first! I checked the west area after that, to the north... You take care of Anindira. Don't force her to understand you!... I'm afraid it will be bad for her as well as her womb. I'll call some people to stand guard nearby. Make her calm down first! You have to be patient, and give her time... Koza will also stay with Ezra. Don't worry! Just checking the perimeter I can do alone,'' cried Ruvi, to give Halvir and Anindira more time. ''Um... Thank you,'' Halvir replied, still in his position. ''Heh!...'' Ruvi grinned, hearing Halvir's words, ''You can also thank me...'' Ruvi said sarcastically with a smile hanging on his lips, he then quickly left, leaving Halvir, who snorted in annoyance because of his sarcasm. ''Dira...'' Hal
After a few days, Halvir, Ruvi, and a few others surveyed the situation around the village. They returned to the tree where Mischa's house was located, which became the meeting point. It wasn't long before the representatives from each Clan gathered one by one according to their earlier promise. As soon as they all gathered, they discussed the results of the investigations that had been obtained over the past few days. However, none of them found anything out of the ordinary. They also reported how the situation of the villagers was. Several men were injured. But, so far, apart from the first day, there have been no additional fatalities. Those who are the strongest are busy helping those who need power because the big snake cannot be handled alone, especially if they fall into the water, the chances of survival are very small if there is no one to help. For now, Halvir and Ruvi didn't come to any conclusion, hence they could only order them to be extra vigilant and careful. It was a
Tonight Halvir got his break, thanks to Koza. Ruvi also asks him to stay for the night, as Halvir has been outside for several nights. He felt sorry for Anindira, who always slept alone because Halvir was always busy with his duties. ''I'm sorry... I left you more...'' Halvir said, fondly stroking Anindira's belly. ''How do you feel now?... I never had the chance to ask you,'' added Halvir. ''I'm good...'' answered Anindira, who was very happy to enjoy Halvir's caress on her belly. She had missed Halvir's touch for a long time, remembering the last few days they had not seen each other. Previously, Halvir was also too busy with village security matters, but even so, he still took the time to see how Anindira was doing. Hence, Anindira also doesn't miss the busy Halvir too much. "I mean Gavriel... How is he?" Do you still feel bad about him?'' said Halvir again to clarify it. ''Hm... I'm better now. I also always consult with Aunt Ezra. And, now, I'm starting to understand it... i
