2 Chapter 2: Forest and people

Logan walked through the forest attentively and thus noticed many familiar plants and animals. This made him doubt weather or not he changed worlds. 'Man, if this is still earth then I'm fucked.' He thought worriedly.

He stopped walking slowly, in thought, 'Maybe I should make a mask before i meet people.'

He looked around for something to make said mask with, then he got an idea, you could practically see the bulb go off.

He quickly ripped of a leg of his shorts, cut eye holes and tied it around his head.

He looked at his equipment screen in happiness.

'Looks good, it covers my whole face and it wont slip off because the system recognizes it as an armour piece.'

--------

(Cloth mask)<crude>

[A crudly made cloth mask made to cover the wearers identity. Provides no physical protection]

--------

'I'm the best.' he thinks to himself.

As he walks he gets bored of the repetitive process, there's nothing new, 'God make it stop, its just trees, rocks, and bushes on repeat. There's no end to it!'

He stopped and strained his hearing, "I can hear voices!" He exclaimed in excitement as he began to tear through the forest.

He stumbled to a stop as he relised something, 'Their speaking Japanese, and how can I understand it!?'

*Ding*

A system notification popped up suprising him, but his suprise only grew with what he read.

--------

Congratulations!! You've found a hidden feature. (All Speak), this allows you to understand any real language.

For finding a hidden feature +1 to both INT and WIS

--------

'Huh, so hidden features are a thing. Anyway, how should i approach this, because i can only imagine two ways that this could go. Option 1 i just go blundering in and probably get attacked or labled as a monster like a wendigo, or i could scout them out and go from there.'

Obviously, he went for option 2 cause he's not an idiot.

And thats how he found himself gawking at 3 teenagers laughing around a campfire. Now what I was staring at wasn't the situation, what I was staring at the fact that one teen had a toaster for a head, the second one had literal bug eyes, and though the third looked normal I could tell something was up with his hands by the fact his veins were glowing.

'The hell?'

I slowly backed up, and thats when I messed up.

*Snap* I had accidentally stepped on a stick, the three teens immediately whipped around and we made eye contact.

"Um, hi?" I questioned more than stated.

The three teens shot up and i had a pair of glowing palms pointed at me. I immediately raised my hands in surrender as I realised shit went sideways. "Woah, Woah, Woah dude, I mean no harm."

"Who are you!? What do you want!?" Questioned glowarms, who I had pegged as the leader at this point.

"My name is logan, and I'm lost. All I want is just directions to the nearest town." I said this and prayed to God he took my explanation. He raised his eyebrow at me and lowered his arms somewhat. 'Okay good,' I thought 'He didnt just start blasting.'

"Then whats up with your mask?" He questioned. As my mind raced for an acceptable answer he said "Is it something to do with your quirk?"

I think these are what they call powers here so I immediately yelled out "Yes!"

He looked at me quizzically, long enough that I thought I said something wrong and he was going to shoot me. I was just about to start running when he fully lowered his arms, "What the hell man, I could have hurt you! What are you sneaking around for?" He asked, still on  edge.

I rub the back of my head sheepishly, acting the part, "Well sometimes my appearance can cause... problems, so I sorta, um..."

I was cut off by him, now fully relaxed, laughing, "Ha! Yeah I can tell." He continued to chuckle as he and his freinds sat back down. I exhaled and lowered my hands back down to a relaxed position, aka around shin height.

I started thinking about how I almost got shot, 'Man that was close, I almost got shot. I mean, I would of healed but it would still hurt a shit ton.'

I was broken from my thoughts by the kid speaking, "You wanted directions," I nodded "well all you gotta do is follow this trail till you meet a road then head east 5 kilometers and you'll be able to see the city of Musutafu."

I nodded a couple times, thanked them then left to brighter futures.
