Prologue
Tree, tree, treeâ¦
Turning around 360 degrees, there are thick trees growing everywhere I look.
A lonely forest with no roads, my feet get covered in bushes with every step.
I can see a faint light through a gap of the branches so itâs daytime, but because of the crowded trees, the overall mood is gloomy.
Sylâ¦â¦ wasnât there a little better starting place?
Why here? There should have been many alternatives, right?
âGururururu.â
The person who I separated from a little while ago would probably permit me a complaint or two⦠While thinking so, I suddenly hear a beastâs growl and look around in panic.
Certainly, a beast is running towards meââA Red Wolf.
Red Wolf is a red, large-breed dog-like wolf monster. If Iâm not mistaken, itâs a Rank C?
It has completely marked me as its prey.
I have no confidence because Iâm improvising, but I canât just stand here and let it attack me, so I point my hand like a pistol at the Red Wolf.
âAir Shot.â
At the same time I shout, a lump of air shoots from my finger.
I fire compressed air magic which resembles a bullet.
The air bullet hits the target, the Red Wolf âGyain.â whines and gets blown off backward.
I feel relieved that I hit the target properly, but Iâm still cautious in case it can still move.
âThis from the very beginningâ¦â¦â
Haa⦠I sigh, approach the Red Wolfâs dead body and store it with âInfinite Storageâ.
