Transmigrated as a Ghost-Chapter 808 808 Exploring The Jungle

After Marcus and Mrazivy had gotten settled in their room, they immediately headed back out and made their way deeper into the jungle on the island.

Marcus had convinced Mrazivy to first go out and look at the island before jumping back into the water.

He really wanted the run of the area and tonight it was likely to be at its least busy as a welcoming ceremony was being held for all those that had arrived today.

"Are you sure we should just be skipping the ceremony?" Mrazivy asked as they followed a nearby trail into the jungle.

She was worried that they might miss something exciting, but Marcus waved her off.

"No, it is optional anyway, and from the information I gathered beforehand it is mostly just the upper brass of the resort trying to get cozy with the high-ranking guests. There are shows to be seen for sure, but nothing even close to what we got on the ship. I think it will be more fun to go into the jungle while pretty much everyone is preoccupied. We might see some animals that are normally hidden when more people are out on the scheduled jungle tours." Marcus said, an enthusiastic tone in his voice.

He was certain that the jungle would be more alive right now as the sunset and the majority of people were far away.

And it was not long before he was rewarded by spotting a group of strange lemurs that were playing in the trees.

'See I told you that we would get to see something interesting. All we need to do is keep our stealth skills active and enjoy what the jungle has to offer.' Marcus said to Mrazivy with telepathy as he pointed out the lemurs.

They were a bit different from the ones he had seen before on Earth, having striped, green fur and being about half the size while having over enlarged heads. But their general shape and the way they moved looked like lemurs and when Marcus appraised them, he found that they were called Orman Lemurs.

Once they were content watching the lemurs, they traveled deeper into the jungle, following the carved-out trail that was designed for the resort's vehicles that gave tours of the jungle.

"Oh, I've never seen a bird like that. It is beautiful!" Mrazivy explained quietly to Marcus.

She had quickly gotten into their nature watching and was having a fun time finding all of the new beasts she had never seen before.

However, along the way something that Mrazivy found to be amazing made Marcus shudder.

"Isn't the pattern beautiful. I have never seen webbing worried like that before. And it is such a vibrant shade of purple." Mrazivy said happily.

Marcus on the other hand was clenching his fist and doing his best to stay calm.

They had walked off the trial a bit and come across what could only be called a colony of spiders.

There were dozens of them all around the area and while their webs had been created in a beautiful pattern and they were colored a alluring shade of purple.

Nevertheless, despite having become a ghost and great spirit, Marcus' irrational fear of spiders had not left him.

'They are all harmless. They are level one and do not even have fangs that are long enough to pierce human skin. Heck I am not human anymore anyway. Plus, even a steel sword could not put a scratch on me at this point.' Marcus thought as he frantically tried to stay calm.

Yet with his nerves so worked up being surrounded by so many spiders, he did not notice until it was too late that one was curiously descending towards him. pand(a-n0vel.c)om

Only once it had touched down on his shoulder did he register the spider.

For an instant he just stood there still as a board.

Then as his mind processed exactly what had happened, and without making a single sound Marcus simply disappeared.

He had gone into his ghost form and the spider that had landed on him was suddenly suspended in the air again by the strand of web connected to it.

Quickly it began climbing back up into the tree and disappeared from view.

"Wow you will face down demons fearlessly, but the moment a tiny spider touches you it is the end of the world." Mrazivy said in between laughing profusely at Marcus.

Immediately after he disappeared, he had flown back to the path and was not going to go back to where those spiders were.

"Just be lucky is did not burn down the entire area. I just really hate spiders okay. I would rather face a hundred demons then deal with spiders." Marcus said, discomfort still clear on his face.

You fired off your strongest spell without any regard for anything else and forgot to feign chanting." Mrazivy said, having another good laugh at Marcus' expense.

At this he grimaced since he was certain that she would use it against him plenty more times in the future.

And unfortunately, he did not know what she was afraid of to try and get her back.

"Listen Mraz, I do not expect to find a spider right next to me whenever I wake up." Marcus said firmly. Though there was a hint of fear in his voice as well

"No, I am not planning to do something like that. Well, at least not any time soon." Mrazivy said before skipping off along the trail.

Sighing, Marcus rushed after her and they continued sightseeing through the jungle.

Quickly the last rays of light began to fade, and the warm air slowly began to cool ever so slightly. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

"Marcus, look! What are those?" Mrazivy said, pointing out a bunch of lights appearing in the forest.

"Those are fireflies. We had them on Earth, but I have never seen them with so many different colors." Marcus said in awe.

A multitude of different colors from dark blue to bright pink were flashing through the jungle.

It was quite the show and Marcus and Mrazivy watched it go on for nearly an hour before counting on their nighttime stroll through the jungle.
