MONSTER HUNTER - 13 DEMON KIDS
LIKE JACK AND THE MAGIC BEAN TREE*

Next day.

The young men from Earth are still unable to decide who is the replacement leader Gibson to guide them.

They speak in the language of mythology. Translation.

"I was used to leading the group, but not as we are now. I'm just the class president and the scout squad leader. I can't lead you. This task is too heavy" said Rangga refused.

Bara who proposed Rangga to replace Gibson scratch his head dizzy to choose the next candidate.

"What about you, Lazarus? You're equal to the prince. You can definitely lead us" asked Boas, who now pointed to Benedict's descendants.

"Yes, that's right. It's just, I'm self-conscious. I'm used to ordering servants to do things for me. Being here, it doesn't happen. The others only. I don't want to be blamed if anyone gets hurt between us while on a mission" Lazarus replied.

"Well! You guys are so weird. Everyone wants a position as a leader. But you guys raise your hands. Then let me" said Satyr, offering himself.

Practically, the children squinted their eyes.

"You don't remember the black figure's message? You can't come. You can only wait below, you can't climb" Mandarin said. Satyr clucked in annoyance.

"Yes, just go. Without your leaders I can look after each other. Maybe Gibson's figure can't be replaced. Do not complicate yourself and come back. I don't like being here alone" he lamented, folding his front two arms around his chest.

"Hem, that's right he said. Why do we even bother and spend time looking for a replacement leader? Then, we're leaving now. Our time is limited" Ryan encouraged.

"Come on! Careful, this bar is slippery. Hah, if allowed to fly, maybe we can get there faster. Oag trouble," grumbled Rex.

As the children begin to climb in turns, Czar suddenly transforms into a Griffin. Practically, everyone was shocked by this.

"The czar! What do you want? Word figure black—"

"I just want to prove it. Fly!" he answered, starting to flap his wings.

As Czar's body began to float through the air, suddenly, "Woh! Woh! Whoa!"

"Czar!" harun exclaimed hysterically as he saw the wings of Griffin Czar suddenly vanish.

The mythological figure of Czar fell hard on the grass. Satyr came and helped him. All the children rushed down from the tree and approached the Russian teenager.

"You all right?" ask Nicolas worriedly.

"Huh, yeah. Good thing is not too high," he replied, returning to human form.

"Wings missing. It is terrible to punish Oag for the disobedient" said Vadim pale.

"Czar, are your wings really gone? Try to change again" Kenta pinta.

Czar nodded slowly and stood up again. All the children looked solemnly at the moment when Czar turned into Griffin again.

"Oh! Wings back! Thankfully, I'm scared to death if your fate is like that of the Harpies" Rex said.

"Huh, I'm also relieved. I relied heavily on my stern wings" replied Czar and then returned to human form like mission instructions.

"Maybe we should be like Jack's story. Jack is just a human being. He has no magical ability and changes like us. He succeeded because of his own efforts" Lazarus said.

"Hem, I think so too. All right then. Don't lose at this level. For me, this level is quite easy unlike the previous levels. About how we outsmart the giants, think while climbing," said Timo who was ready to climb the trunk of the beanstalk.

"Yes, that's right! We focus on arriving to the upper region first. This rod was extremely tall even piercing through the clouds. Don't fall. The spirit!" kenta exclaimed, and all the children nodded in agreement.

One by one the teenagers began to climb. They seem to be careful not to slip. While Satyr, waiting downstairs until the boys came back.

It turns out, the pea tree plant like a fairy tale is really high. Luckily, on the planet wind mythology is almost imperceptible, but the air can still be inhaled.

Unfortunately, the sweat of the teenagers began to pour when they were already high enough and Satyr was invisible even though he was playing the flute below.

"Huh, huh, still not seen the end. I'm so tired. Is there a place to rest for a while?" ask Mandarin with lips dry from thirst.

"Oh! There's a branch up there. We can sit for a moment. How's it?" ask Rangga who is the highest among the others.

"Huh, okay," Mandarin replied with a gasp of breath.

Rangga swiftly climbed to the top to check the place followed by Aaron and Bara where they had both learned to climb with weapons in hand by Gibson.

"How, Rangga? Can I rest?" tanya Harun clung tightly to the tree trunk so as not to fall.

"It seems that I can't. We will fall if we make the wrong move. The place is not free and the trunk is soft because of new branches. Present, I am also very tired," he answered looking lethargic and then returned to the main trunk which was more sturdy.

The children looked uninspired from exhaustion. They did not expect that the tree was so tall that it almost touched the clouds.

"Oh! What if you tie your body with a cloth or rope? Like hugging a tree. Importantly, we can sit down" Lazarus suggested as he sensed that the trunk he was holding was strong enough.

"Huh? You mean how?" asked Boas confused.

Lazarus swiftly removed the bag with one hand. He looked cautious as he opened the zipper and picked up a rope. He then moved his bag in front of his chest and tied his waist with the trunk of the tree.

"Ah, I understand!" exclaim Timo who then follows the way of Lazarus.

The other kids try the same thing. They look relieved because they can finally release the handle and enjoy the provision.

However, Kenta is attracted to beans that grow on the curved tendrils nearby.

"The talent! What are you eating?" nicolas asked, glaring because there was a sound like shaking like eating hard food.

Kenta who is fun to chew because the taste of bean seeds is quite good for him, not realizing the impact of the seeds.

"Ke-Kenta! Kenta!" the panic strangled Nicolas that made all the children immediately look at Kenta clingy from where they rested.

"Huh, huh, what ....what happened to me?!" pekik Kenta immediately dropped the beans that had been half exhausted.

The eyes of all the children glared when they saw Kenta's figure change. The fingers of the young man's hand became like a peanut tree tendril and began to be wrapped around the tree trunk.

"The talent!" yell Rex panicked.

NAH!

"The talent!" call Timo hysterical because the rope that tied Kenta broke and made the body of the Japanese young man hanging with two hands turned into tendrils.

"Huh, huh, AAAAA!" he panicked later.

"He's green like a beanstalk!" pekik Boas.

Ryan watched Kenta's changes closely until he realized something.

"The talent! You can use your fingers as tendrils to climb!" ryan hugged the tree.

"Huh? Whatchu mean?" tanya Kenta looks pale because of his new form.

"Remember my figure when I became the Tree Lord?" ryan looked at Kenta below him. Kenta nodded. "Remember when two of my wooden hands can elongate? You are too. The difference is, your hands are tendrils. It should be more flexible and elastic. Try moving your fingers to tie the logs and use them to climb slowly. You can do it!" ryan cheered.

"Huh, is that it? O-okay, I'll try," she replied nervously.

All the kids looked tense. Kenta tried to move his ten fingers which had turned into tree tendrils. What Ryan said was right.

His fingers can be elongated and pliable, but strong to grip and pull his body.

A SHOCK!

"Whoah!" kenta exclaimed in surprise as he managed to make his body rise to the top and is now aligned with Mandarin.

"Your hand is like a rope. Try to move it to the top near Rangga," said Ryan again.

Kenta tries to focus and now releases his five tendril fingers on the right hand. He aimed at the trunk beside Rangga with a sharp eye highlight.

"Heyah!"

A SHOCK! WHUITS!

"Haha! He succeeded! He can climb by utilizing his new abilities!" ryan looks happy.

"You're right, Ryan! This way, I can get there faster!" kenta replied happy.

"Are we also eating those beans to be like Kenta? What if I can't get back to my original condition? We're going to be half-tree men" asked Nicolas in a panic.

"We're just trying to drink some magic potion. Who knows after drinking, we can go back to normal" Rex said.

"I don't think it's a problem. We just change hands to help climb in order to shorten the time. We do not know how high this tree is and if it is too long, it can die of fatigue and fall" said Czar.

"I don't like raw food. Vegetables are bad," complained Vadim.

"Then you will be left behind" said Lazarus with a lazy face. Vadim pout.

"Oh! Just dip it in chocolate. Think of it like eating chocolate-coated almonds. Wow, that's so delicious!" bara Suggestion.

Instantly, Vadim's eyes sparkled. He agreed with the advice of Bara. Vadim picked one nut and smeared the green beans with chocolate every time he was bitten.

All the children looked curious because Vadim seemed to enjoy it.

"Hem, right! Tastes good!" he said with a glowing face.

"Just half, Vadim! Don't overdo it or you'll be a whole beanstalk!" exclaim Kenta whose position is now higher than him.

"Here, give me the rest" said Timo.

Vadim gave the bean with chocolate on it. Timo spent the remaining half of Vadim's bite voraciously.

Sure enough, the two children changed and now like Kenta.

"Come everyone! We eat nuts!" exclaim Czar happily and then pluck.

All the children seemed enthusiastic and immediately ate the beans in order to change like Kenta.
