The Fat God System

Chapter 67: Nest

Hugh looked at the squirrel with a deadpan expression. He did not have any facial expression as he tightened his grip on the squirrel's claws.

*TWIIII!!!!*

The squirrel screamed in pain as it tried to endure the crushing force Hugh was exerting onto its claws. It was now completely afraid of Hugh and wanted nothing to do with him anymore.

As a last resort, the squirrel bit its own claws and separated it from its own arms. It sacrificed its claws for freedom, and once it had achieved that, it bolted out towards the tunnel where it came from.

Hugh held the claws in his hands and just watched the squirrel rush away from him. He did not immediately chase after the squirrel as he merely observed it move away from him.

Hugh dropped the four claws in the ground and stepped forward without any hurry. As soon as his foot stepped on the floor, he disappeared and went after the squirrel in the tunnel.

The squirrel was running through the tunnel with four legs. Its arms were still bleeding from removing its claws, but it did not impede it from running away.

Hugh followed the trail of blood in the tunnel as he sped through the dark tunnel. He did not seem to be having trouble seeing in the dark as he could sense his surroundings.

The squirrel's heart was beating wildly as it tried to get away from Hugh. It looked back from where it came, only to see a speeding Hugh coming towards it.

The squirrel even harder through the hardwood tunnel that is created. The tunnel had a dome shape and was a little bit shorter than a standing squirrel. It was only meant for transportation, so the squirrel built it, intending to run through it with four legs.

The squirrel saw the light at the end of the tunnel and knew it was getting close to where it wanted to go. If it wanted to survive from Hugh, it would need a lot of help.

Hugh continued to run through the tunnel and follow the squirrel towards the end of the tunnel. Once out, blinding light hit his eyes and almost blinded him.

He realized that he was now outside of the tree, and the cool breeze of the wind greeted him. He saw the squirrel stop in its tracks and look at Hugh with a superior face as if it had won the battle with Hugh.

Hugh did not know why the squirrel was so happy, but he knew it planned something to kill him. It would not have led him to this tunnel if it did not have a plan, but Hugh was not worried.

Any plan would crumble under his power.

*flap* *flap*

Then, he heard the familiar beating of wings in the distance. He immediately turned his head and saw a giant eagle landing on a branch near him.

Hugh noticed that it had landed on a strange gathering of woods and sticks that created an oval shape. Then, he saw the figures of eggs peeking out of the upside-down dome of sticks; it was the eagle's nest.

Just as the eagle landed on the nest, it smelled something in the air. Then, it immediately pinpointed Hugh's location right away, and its eyes turned red.

The eagle was angry. It had thought that Hugh came to this place to catch its eggs and was infuriated. Its motherly instinct bubbled up to the surface and immediately wanted to exterminate the threat.

It flapped its wings hard and soared through the air. Judging from the wingspan, this was the biggest eagle he had seen in this place. He could also see a large bulge on its stomach, meaning it was pregnant.

The guarantor eagle pierced through the air, creating shockwaves in the air and leaving a trail of smoke in its wings. Hugh could feel the immensity of the eagle's power, but he did not move an inch.

The squirrel was watching from the side with an evil smile on its face. It had led Hugh of this place so that the eagle and Hugh could fight it out. Once they were both injured and weak, it would come and finish both of them.

The squirrel furrowed its eyebrows as it watched Hugh raise his hand towards the eagle. It was confused as to why Hugh was not moving, so it thought that Hugh was just paralyzed from fear.

The squirrel watched as the giant eagle dive towards Hugh with its beak ready to pierce through anything. Hugh was still not moving, and his hands seemed like it was about to grab the eagle's beak mid-air.

As the eagle's beak collided with Hugh's palm, a large shockwave reverberated throughout the branch they were in. The squirrel could feel the ground start to shake up and down from the force from the collision.

With the leaves falling gracefully, the squirrel watched as Hugh stopped the eagle with its full force without any problem. The ground underneath Hugh was dented, but he did not move an inch.

Inside his hand was the eagle's beaks grabbing it with such force that the eagle could not force it open.

The squirrel's jaws were wide open with shock as it saw the apparent difference in power between the two. Even with the eagle's force and the beak's sharpness, it was not enough to harm Hugh.

The eagle had wide eyes as it watched the world suddenly turn upside-down. Hugh raised the whole eagle in the air, and after a moment, slammed it back down the ground.

*CRACK*

The bones inside the eagle were crushed under the force, and the reverberations caused another earthquake in the branch.

The eagle felt immense pain from all over its body, and it felt that its own life was in danger. It tried to flap its wings hard to get away from Hugh's grasp, but Hugh's grip prevented the eagle from flying away.

Then, Hugh raised the eagle again and slammed it back down, creating more injuries in the eagle. Hugh continued to slam the eagle in the ground in a ruthless manner.

The eagle was now in critical condition, and it had no strength to run away from Hugh. It could only endure the pain it was feeling.

The eagle's deformed body fell on the ground as Hugh released his grip. The eagle was now slowly dying of pain, so Hugh walked near it and grabbed its head.

In one swift motion, it broke the eagle's neck and killed it without any hesitation.

The squirrel watched all this unfold with its very own eyes. It looked on in horror at what the eagle's fate had become.

It thought that the eagle would win the fight because it had always feared the eagle, but now it was dead without damaging its opponent.

If the eagle could not win against Hugh, what would be the squirrel's chances?

The squirrel was paralyzed from fear that it forgot to run away. It was only reminded of the dangerous situation when Hugh turned his head to look towards the squirrel.

The squirrel felt a chill on its back as it saw Hugh's cold eyes. It was going to die if it did not run away from Hugh as soon as possible.

The squirrel turned around and bolted out towards another tunnel, leaving Hugh behind. Its instincts were telling it to run away without looking back, but it could not hold back its curiosity.

It turned to look back only to see that Hugh was gone from its sight. It did not feel comforted by that fact and instead only served to horrify the squirrel more.

The squirrel knew that it would have to do everything and anything to survive, so it led Hugh towards an empty space that only the squirrel knew about.

It reached the end of the tunnel and onto what seemed to be a wooden wall. It looked to be a dead-end, but the squirrel continued its momentum without stopping.

The squirrel continued to run towards the wall headfirst while closing its eyes for the impact. Then, the wall broke and was revealed just to be a thin piece of wood that could be easily broken.

Then, the interior of the space was revealed, a dark and dim place except for the sparkling treasures piled up in the corner of the room.
