Chapter 49 Fascinating Scenery
?After checking, Nathan can't help but frown.
'There doesn't seem to be any problem with my body, but why does it feel like something is tugging a part of me?'
Nathan was pretty sure that there was no problem with his body as he checked it carefully.
But he really can feel an unknown force pulling him somewhere.
However, Nathan can also feel that this unknown force doesn't mean to harm him.
Because of that, he became extremely curious.
'I should go and check it out,' he thought.
Standing up, he approached James and said a few words before leaving.
Irish, who's been looking at him the whole time, wondered where he's going.
So she went to James and asked.
"Hey, James, where is Nathan going?" she asked in a low voice.
James eyed her for a while, then said, "He said that he's just going to relieve himself. What, wanna go with him?"
Irish immediately blushed, she hurriedly went back to her spot.
James, who saw that, felt it's funny and shook his head before continuing what he's doing.
Back to Nathan.
After he left the hiker's resting spot, he tried to feel the pulling force inside his body.
So that he can locate its source and follow it.
"Hmm… It's that direction, huh."
After getting a direction, Nathan started to walk in that path.
The trees in this part of the mountain are taller than the usual trees around for some reason.
And it caused the sunlight to find it hard to make its way in here, making this path a particularly dark one.
But Nathan was not bothered and just continued to follow the pulling feeling inside of him.
After several minutes of walking, the trees around him started to clear up and the sun also shone here with clear light.
Not far ahead, Nathan saw the sun being reflected, and he was blinded by it's light for a few seconds.
Once he arrived on that clearing, Nathan finally saw what reflected the sunlight.
It was a pond of clear water in the middle of this sea of trees.
The wind blows refreshingly in this place as the singing voice of the birds echoes, making it a sight full of ethereal flavor to it.
It makes for a refreshing experience that will make you relax.
Seeing this, Nathan exclaimed, "Wow~"
He is amazed by the sight in front of him.
He felt like he's been transported to a whole new world from where he's been earlier.
With just this, Nathan feels that it's already worth the time he took to hike as it really made him relax.
Just by standing here, he feels like his head is already clearing up all the things he's been thinking about before that he even involuntarily let out a sigh of comfort.
"Sigh~ what a bliss this is."
Taking a deep breath, after he breathed it out, it felt like all the bad feelings that had accumulated on his body were resolved.
"This is a really magical experience." he said in a wistful tone.
Nathan walked towards a tree near the pond and sat there, leaning his back on the tree with his hand on his knee.
He closed his eyes and just immersed himself to the wondrous feeling that this scenery brings him.
Suddenly, Nathan felt something inside of him flowing and forming a circulation.
He focused on that feeling to try and see what it is.
Then something that he did not expect happened!
When he carefully focused his mind on that circulation, the image of the inside of his body appeared in his mind!
Nathan opened his eyes in surprise!
"What was that!?"
He felt incredulous being able to see through his own body.
Restoring his calm, Nathan organized his thoughts by laying out the things that he knows.
First, Nathan knows that it was his Nature's Energy that was flowing inside his body.
It must have started circulating because he is in an area that is rich in nature's energy.
Looking at his surroundings, Nathan thought that it made sense. With a place like this, it was pretty obvious that nature is very abundant.
Now, the thing that puzzles him is why was he able to see what is happening inside his body?
To confirm that it was not just his imagination, Nathan tried to focus like before.
And without surprise, he once again saw what was happening inside his body through his mind.
To make sure that all of this is not just his imagination, Nathan made a simple test on his body.
In the end, he confirmed that all of it was real and not just a vivid imagination.
Deep in thought, he sat there trying to think of a reason for this phenomenon.
With a frown on his face, he propped his hand on his chin, "I don't think there's anything that I did that could have caused this."
Then Nathan's attention turned into circulating nature's energy inside him.
"Or maybe, this is related to nature's energy!"
Nathan felt that there's a high possibility that this is really something that happened because of his nature's energy since aside from it, there's nothing new that happened to him.
Just as he was focusing on his thoughts, the pulling from the unknown force suddenly became more intense!
Only then did Nathan's turn his attention back to it.
"Hmm, why does it feel like it's hurrying me somewhere?" He muttered, confused.
Deciding to take a look at what's the matter with it, Nathan stood up and patted the dust on him before he continued walking.
Just after a few steps, he arrived at the edge of the pond.
The unknown force is pulling him inside the pond.
? "So it's under the water."
Taking off his backpack, Nathan dropped it on the tree where he was sitting.
*Splash!*
Taking a deep breath and without hesitation, Nathan jumped into the water making a splash on the calm pond.
He immediately felt the refreshingly cold water and became energetic.
