Max Level Player " THE WANDERER "
Chapter 02 Trapped In The Forest
Steven awoke from his short sleep inside a tent he had made out of wood and twigs. His body felt stiff and tired after days of exploring this forest. Each moment took him further away from the world he knew.
He felt his stomach rumble and his heart filled with unease. The forest surrounding it was dark and gripping, the trees towering like a natural prison. He knew he had to find food immediately before things got worse.
Careful, he went around looking for signs of life. Although he was afraid of creatures that might be lurking in the shadows, hunger forced him to keep going. Finally, he found a bunch of wild berries that looked pretty safe.
He tasted some fruits carefully, making sure they were non-toxic. The sweet taste of the fruits removed a little from the tension he felt. He stuffed some fruit into his simple backpack containing several items he had brought from the real world, including 6 snacks, 1 strap, 1 match, 1 water bottle that is large enough, and a replacement shirt.
After refreshing himself with some fruit, he continued his search. He heard the gurgling of water and immediately followed the sound. A small river offering fresh water. He gulped it down gratefully, feeling lucky to find a source of water on this long journey.

But with her stomach already filled, her hunger was replaced by feelings of anxiety. He was still trapped inside this forest, and every day took him further away from home. He took a deep breath and decided to follow the flow of the river, hoping to lead him to a clearer clue.
However, the sun was already getting lower in the sky, and Steven knew that the night was coming quickly. He searched for a safe place and finally found a natural cave on the river bank. This is probably the best place to spend the night.
Carefully, he entered the cave and lit a fire with a branch he was carrying. The light of the flames expelled the darkness and gave him a hint of warmth.while he sat inside the cave, his mind kept spinning about how to get out of the trap he found.
Will Steven be able to find answers and escape from this forest? Or will he be trapped in this terrible dream forever?
While he was sitting inside the cave, he recalled a mysterious message he had received earlier. The message appeared to be from game developer "The Wanderer" and said the world would be reset. But what does that message have to do with the current situation? Steven feels increasingly confused and cornered by the mystery that is increasingly confusing.
He woke up from his daydream as the rumbling sounds from the surrounding forest reached his ears. The sound was like the roar of an approaching large animal. Steven loosened himself and hid in a dark cave. He doesn't know what's coming, but he has to be ready for anything.
A few moments later, a creature approached. Steven peeked and saw clearly if the creature was like a human but did not have hair and height is different from the average human height in general and has a very sharp black nails on the fingers his finger, his white eyes lit up. The creature also walked past him with the sound of heavy footsteps
...
...
Steven was relieved because the creature did not realize its existence, then Steven said in his heart
" This is crazy! it turns out that what I imagined was all right.it's not wrong that the creature named devoz from the game 'THE WANDERER' that I always played. fortunately, Devoz is a blind creature and his sense of smell is not very sharp and, I am very lucky not to face him directly because otherwise I would be seriously injured. I could have killed him easily but since I only had this little knife it would have been a pretty tough fight even though I was sure I could beat him"
