Sword God in a World of Magic
Chapter 10
Alex glanced at the horizon and noted that the sun was barely visible.
'It's already sundown. I'm not sure what manner of creatures travel around at night in this forest, but I don't want to be on the ground while night's out.'
Alex grabbed the wolf's corpse and lifted it. It was really heavy, but he barely managed to lift it up to his chest. However, it was very exhausting.
Then, Alex looked at the branches above him.
The lowest branch that could support the weight of the wolf was a full meter above him.
'I might be able to lift the corpse over my head, but I sure as hell can't throw it up there. Jumping is also out of the question. It's simply too heavy.'
'I need an alternative,' Alex thought as he put the corpse down again.
Alex paced around as he tried to think of a solution. The forest darkened more as time passed, and Alex became more nervous.
By now, the birds had become silent, making the forest appear deathly silent.
Even the constant buzzing of the insects became quieter until it eventually stopped.
Right now, the only noise in the forest was Alex's footsteps.
Then, Alex looked up at the bag in his tree.
'I have to try it! I can't waste this corpse!'
Alex quickly climbed up the tree and got his bag.
After opening it, Alex took out all his spare clothes and tied them together. Luckily, he had enough clothes to make quite a long line.
'If old-timey prisoners can use something like this to escape from prisons, I can use it to pull up a corpse!'
Alex tied his makeshift rope to the chest of the wolf.
Then, Alex climbed up to the first branch of the tree and let himself fall down at the other side, holding the rope.
CRRRR!
The rope became taught, and Alex feared that it might snap.
CRRR!
The wolf corpse slightly moved upward but stopped.
'I'm not heavy enough.'
Alex climbed up the rope, happy that his body was fit enough to do something like that.
Then, Alex tugged the rope under his arm and put his feet on the branch.
After that, Alex pushed himself off the branch.
CRRRR! THUNK!
The corpse moved upwards, but one of the knots loosened.
The wolf hit the ground, and Alex also fell down.
Luckily, he managed to protect his head with his arms. He only received a couple of bruises.
The falling corpse echoed throughout the forest, making Alex even more nervous.
With the current silence of the forest, that sound should have traveled for over a hundred meters!
