Ares: Never Grow Up
Offering themselves?!

"Hey ... Can I come with you?"

"Well?!"

POV: Ares

I was immediately startled and stared at Safa with my mouth open. The little girl with blond hair looked timid with a slightly flushed face, and the gaze she always directed towards the ground.

"You .. sure? I mean-don't you have to be here to help the citizens?" I was confused while looking at Safa seriously. The girl sighed and started playing the ground that was under her feet.

"Indeed I want to protect them, but .. if the world stays like this, won't the things I'm going to do go to waste? There will be many people who will grow stronger, and there will be many dead in the process.

We also cannot increase the birth rate with the condition of the world like this. So I draw a conclusion, as long as the world is like this, it means that human extinction is just a matter of time." Safa spoke calmly and seriously, I fell silent and looked at Safa deeply.

The wind blew softly, carrying three butterflies and dozens of sparrows that passed over the sky.

"ah! Time to plant a tree! Comeing! You can consider my request later!" Safa immediately stood up and invited me enthusiastically. So I got up and came out from under the tree, before the sky began to darken, the sparrows threw a lot of grain on this flat ground. Aided by worms and mole rats, the seeds are set to go into appropriate depths for them to grow properly.

"Thank you! Help us again tomorrow!" Safa waved at the horde of birds that started to go away. The sky that was already getting darker, gave off a bluish purple light that hit our bodies. With the thin clouds and the gentle wind blowing, it was now felt that peace was truly there.

BRACKET!

"PRITTT! THERE IS IMPORTANT NEWS EVERYONE PLEASE GATHER!" I broke down the small house that I made especially our team, as soon as I entered I immediately shouted and looked around.

Okay, Ken there is. Riot, there. Vani? ... WHERE'S VANI?!

"WHERE'S VANI?!" I asked her to look at Ken. The boy who was sitting quietly while writing something turned his head towards me, and started to remember.

"Something like he said to get some fresh food. Maybe fruit? Then it's possible to go into the woods." Ken answered and then refocused on the activities he was doing. I breathed a tired breath and went back out of the house.

I have to find Vani.

Whus!

I flew into the sky, and started to enter the upper area of the forest.

"BRMR! I SHOULD'VE WORN A WARM SHIRT!" I shouted annoyedly in the air. I stopped in the air and rubbed my palms together quickly. My eyes stared at the row of dark forest below me.

Loh ... This is impossible, right if Vani dares to go into the dark forest alone? Because it's night now, where is he?

I descended slowly, and perched on a fairly large tree branch.

I need a flashlight.

CRING!

A medium-sized flashlight appeared in front of me, I immediately picked up and started to light the flashlight.

"Hap!" I jumped down from the top of the branch, then started looking around. I am not afraid even if there will be tigers or even other wild animals. As long as I can fly I'm sure that I'll be safe. I can fight too.

"Vani! Vaaaaaniiii!" I shouted left and right, relentlessly to find where Vani was.

Trick trick!

I felt a chill goosebumps all over my body, as soon as I heard the sound of a broken branch, I spontaneously turned to the source of the sound.

"AW! Hey that's glare! What are you doing here?!" Vani appears with both hands hugging the fruits. Once I knew it was Vani, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief and turned off the flashlight.

"Basic! It's already night! Why did you go into the forest?! What if you were attacked by a beast?!" I asked while touching Vani's forehead a few times. The girl complained of pain and began to retaliate by stepping on my feet.

MISTRESS!

"AWW!" I screamed loudly while holding my right toe.

"That's a punishment because you're chatty! I'm looking for fruit! And you happen to be here!" vani replied with an annoyed expression. I stroked my toes several times and blew them, and then I got back on my feet.

"But you who go to the forest without taking anyone is dangerous know, you have no ability to fight," I said with a tired sigh. Vani immediately pouted and walked away leaving me. I looked at Vani's missing back, then looked around.

"Ah, I better follow him."

POV: Ken

I still sat quietly as I continued to write words that I could not shout. Well, no one thought that my love story would end like this. And I can't blame anyone but myself.

There were so many casualties in the war that Boni created this time. And Civilian was also just one of the victims of this tragedy. He was also one of the heroes who died in this war.

Actually I want to leave this city immediately, and immediately forget all the memories that happened here. But Ares has made the decision that we should help the townspeople to at least make a decent settlement.

Fortunately thanks to the ability of Ares and good cooperation of the citizens, in 3 days there are already more than 150 houses that have been established. If not wrong, our goal is to build 500 houses. Well, it's only a matter of time until this simple construction is about to be completed.

The truck!

"Akhhh! Why fall?!"

I stared at Riot who was angry because the cards he had arranged instead fell in the wind. The blue-haired boy must have also experienced a painful time like me, or even more pain than me.

But he can still smile freely, express freely, and he also plays a big role in this war. Really, if it wasn't for Riot's teleportation power, I'm sure we would have been out-informed and lost in the rescue.

As for me ... This is what use is my power anyway? I can indeed heal but what good would it be if I can't be on time?!

If only I could have been faster, if only I had not been blinded by lust at that time.

Sure ... There are dozens of lives I can save, right? Now I understand why doctors shouldn't involve personal feelings.

Next ... I won't let myself fall like this.

TBC.

Don't forget the likes, guys!
