37- I wood like to speak

*Boom*

I shot the 'assassination bullet', as i'll call it from now on, against the chieftain. Unfortunately it seems like it was going to miss.

'Damn! It's to hard to aim properly when this two keep moving around.'

"Enough!"

With that scream the chieftain sudently slashed at all the magic around him, leaving only my bullet flying towards him from afar.

Seeing this and probably thinking this bullet was his.... The elder pushed the chieftain into the path of my magic!

*Boom*

"Argh!"

"Stop resisting. Just go back home."

"You.. YOU!"

"*sigh* Your anger blinded you yet again, thank goodness your daughter didn't take after y- ."

Both the chieftain and the elder sudently stopped speaking and looked at the chieftaisn's back.

The elder could only look in a daze as the back of the chieftain slowly started to shatter into multiple particles and go with the wind.

" A curse? But who cursed you?"

"... Ironic, I'm usually the one who curses people, even if only with swear words hahaha"

"If the shaman was still alive he could break that curse with his light magic...

The second elder may not be strong enough to do that, but he can slow down its effects enough for us to go find help."

'So light magic is good against curses? Good to know.'

" No, I'll die, my body is alredy beaten up, and the curse has alredy eaten up all the skin in my back and is approaching my organs....

Just call my daughter for me please... I want to say goodbye before I go."

Alright, I've seen enough.

Taking my vision of the village i started thinking about my future.

There will always be someone who will hate me, I killed a lot of people after all.

Maybe they won't all be as direct with their threats as the chieftain so the church will be warned sooner or later.

What I should do, is make sure that the church only gets warned later rather than sooner.

The villagers don't know of my presence yet, they think I'm alredy dead since no one warned them about my return.

My body now, is much smaller than my body when during my last evolution. So I can't be seen from the other island.

The problem are my roots, they remain as big, both in amount and in size. I've ou 'died' a few days ago, do its still excusable that my body parts remain.

But what about a few month later? And even if not months, what about a few years? Someone is bound to find me out.

'Not to mention the possibility of some random nobody just happening to be flying through this area and seeing my roots.'

That someone wouldn't know of my supposed 'death' and would probably call the church.

'I need a contingency plan.Or maybe even multiple ones!'

First option is hiding, I know that I'm not going to succeed in this one, my root system is huge and I'll keep growing as I go.

And stopping my growth because of some fear Is not how I want to live my second life.

The second one is mind controlling every being in this village.... Something that I have no means of doing.

This fact is also what stops me from impersonating a God like I initially intended to.

The third option is to plant my flower in someone, the risk? The person not dying in his journey or dying somewhere to dangerous for me.

"So? Calmed down a little?"

I suddenly heard a very familiar yet unwanted voice.

"What are you doing here, Ashtar?"

"Nothing, just seeing the views... Speaking of views, you changed quite a bit.

Became more... Flowery."

'... Should I still be angry?'

Logically this guy not only endangered me but also lied to me, if it was the me from back on earth I'd never forgive him.

But my emotions aren't as strong in this world, so I can't really say I hate the guy anymore. In fact the other day I was thinking of calling him.

'Wait! My emotions!'

I've always tough my emotions where repressed because I am a cactus, or because I got revived... But what if that's not the case.

What if every member of my kind, including Ashtar have reduced emotional capacities? Can I still blame him, in that case?

If a psychopath breaks a TV and doesn't feel apologetic yet said sorry and repaid me, should I blame him for not feeling sorry? When he is biologicaly unable to?

"Alrigh, I forgive you."

"Piupiupiupipipi. Great, I though you were going to sulk all year."

"... Don't abuse it."

"Puipuipipipip, sorry, sorry.

It's just that this was the first time it took so much time for one of my students to forgive me.

I almost though I did something wrong this time while teaching you."

'I want to break his fucking beak.'

*bang *

I shot a sand bullet at him.

" Oh, you got faster! Next time you want to show me that shoot at the ground though. "

"UN.DER.STOOD"

"Great! So, Ive noticed you finally became an adult! That's good, you probably have a lot of questions for me, I'll answer them all.

Afterwards I'll teach you a few things, in case you'd don't ask for them that is.

So... Shot it!"

I knew he meant for me to shot my questions but...

*bang*

I just couldn't resist the temptation.
