Chapter 3 - The Serpent Following.

Ever since the war I've been using my snakes to travel across the forest and villages. Of course when people see my snakes they usually ignore them, but occasionally people kill my snakes.

Recently though I've started noticing that less and less people have been killing the snakes, in fact people started whispering to others when they see them. I'm starting to think people have been spreading rumours or something that Their poisonous, or whatever. Spying on humans has never been stranger. A lot more people have been looking around in the forest, searching for something. Maybe Kurts grandson (who I still don't know the name of.) has been telling people about me. If he has then that's good. If it's just a coincidence then that's also good since My snakes are dying less and, eventually, someone's going to find my temple. Like Kurt's grandson. I hope I gain more followers so I can eventually gain the ability to actually grant my followers wishes.

After about what seemed like an eternity the doors to my temple FINALLY open.

So naturally I recite my epic lines;

"WHO HAS AWAKENED ME?"

I ask, trying not to sound as excited as I really am.

"Hello, Serpent Deity. We are here to ask if you really can grant wishes."

Ah So he has been spreading rumours about me.

"AS LONG AS IT IS WITHIN MY POWER I CAN INDEED GRANT WISHES!"

I reply.

"I told you the rumours were true big brother!"

A young boy says, who from the looks of it is most likely is the little brother of the one who asked the question.

"Will you grant my wish?"

The big brother says.

"WHAT IS IT YOU WISH FOR?"

"Oh I kinda thought you would read my mind or something. I wish to be the strongest swordsman in the world!"

A wish like that, what a selfish thing. Honestly even if I could grant wishes this guy doesn't deserve it.

"A SELFISH WISH LIKE THAT IS UNWORTHY OF BEING GRANTED BY THEE!"

I yell hoping they just leave.

"Fine then, I challenge you to a dual if I win you MUST grant my wish!"

A dual? Is this guy stupid? I'm a literal god and also have no reason to fight him. You know I'm starting to think spreading news of my existence might be a bad thing.

"FINE I WILL FIGHT YOU! HOWEVER IF I WIN YOU SHALL NEVER ENTER THE FOREST AGAIN!"

I hope he doesn't actually try to fight me, I haven't fought anyone in... ever. I'm sure I would completely destroy him but I also don't want to move.

"AAAAAAGH!"

He screams charging at me. This guy truly is the dumbest person I've ever met.

With the swipe of my tail(or body since I kind of am just a really long tail with a head.) I slam into him launching him into the temple wall. "Crunch, Crunch" Were those his bones? Well whatever.

I turn to the little brother and roar

"*ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!*"

He runs, obviously, but not before he picks up his brother. After this I resume the look out with my snakes. Of course I never actually stopped the look out since I see through all of their and my own eyes at the same time, but I was more concentrated on my main body at the time. I see them running away towards a village but some people see them leaving the forest and ask them about why their running. I can't hear them from where my snake is, and I can't get closer because the two brothers would certainly attack my snake, but I can assume they tell the people about my whereabouts.

I may have done something a little problematic but I wouldn't know that until about two days later.

(If you guys have anything to tell me or to criticize my writing about then please do so in the comment section so I can improve, Thank you.)
