Running through the forest accompany by the sound of nature at his sides, a young man ran while desperately gasping for air. ‘huff huff fuck why do I need to do this again’ Red complaint as he ran through the forest for training ask by the instructor that was in-charge of him. With feeling of contempt toward the instructor he was being treated  quite differently from the other two, well based on ability wise he was the lowest of them and quite average as you can see.

That morning the king’s attendant brought them to training facilities of the royal guard. Royal guard is a band of knights who are task to protect the king’s life. The favor ask by the king was more to being given a task to prepare ourselves for the war to come. After a tour of the facility, we are then assigned to specific instructor, there we were taught regarding swordmanship and spell incantation and also a bit about the danger of monster beast that reside in this world. as it turn out Aaron was able to master one of the signature move of the royal guard by noon and Miranda also able to cast basic magic perfectly even she was astounded by her talent. The cheats were really helping them master it huh. But for Red by noon he wasn’t able to learn anything even the basic sword stroke of the Royal Guard. As the instructor patience has reach it limits, he then furiously told Red to ran a lap through the forest until he arrive back at the training facilities.

While red was gasping for air he remember that he has one skill that seems to be quite useful. Munus Fabula, even the sound of it was not really pleasant comparing it to Aaron limit break or Miranda master of ice/water magic, it was like comparing pebble to a diamond. As he try to check the skill description before his finger can touch the silver shield a growl could be heard upfront of him near the bush of the forest. Red was now shivering in fear, whatever it is that growl it could not be good news. With his pathetic stamina which continue to deplete he then back away slowly unfortunately for him a shadow lunge out from the bush with lightning speed. Red ran away as fast as he could but the thing that was chasing him was getting closer by the second. Taking a glance to the back, a big boar with monstrous size and monstrous image, it really differ with the usual boar. This further excite Red and induce him to run much fast even while running in a zigzag pattern the boar was still chasing him. He guess it must be due to its big size that it was not disturb by the small prey running in front of him. He even start to pee a bit while running that’s how dire the situation is.

Then something more or less expected happen, his rotten luck got him cornered with mountain edges at his back. With his back up against the wall of earth, he could only laugh to his own misfortune. ‘hahaha I guess death just invite me’ clenching both of his fist while staring down the monster boar in front of him. A few second of silence between them ensured but as the boar start to charge toward him, Red bravely ran to his imminent doom. With his charge accompany by his shout of determination of killing the opponent in front of him. Before both of them collide with each other his eye notice something in front of him popping up before a voice could be heard disturbing his concentration. An object flew through the sky brushing Red’s cheek and targeting the boar’s head. as it drop dead with an arrow embedded at its head Red hastily search the  origin of the voice.

The voice could be heard up from the hill, a shadow standing at the edges of the cliff with the sun at its back. It then shout toward Red in language that he could not understand, Red only reply ‘I don’t understand what you are saying’. The shadow then jump down the cliff while leaping through the air, it skillfully maneuvers through the air flipping its body. Red was mesmerized by its movement. Landing in front of him was a beauty, or more exactly an elf beauty. her face was like one of those supermodel runaway but her charm exceed them in all possible way, her glistening green emerald eyes can calm even the roughest wave, her hair was silver in color that shines by the sun rays and her prominent feature her pointy elf ear that Red never seen before her overall feature define what is pure beauty. Mesmerized by the elf, Red then snap back to reality as she spoke something in some foreign language.

With a blank face, Red again reply ‘I don’t understand -_- ‘. Then she spoke again ‘ do you understand now, pitiful human’, speaking in fluent English but with a thick accent of elvish Red can now understand her but the last remark annoy Red he then said ‘yeah I understand, thank you for saving me’ she observe Red carefully with eyes full of wariness. ‘is there a problem?’ ‘nothing, you better be careful around this part of the forest there’s a lot of monster sighting’. As she turns her back at Red, she then quickly leap back up to the hill. ‘damn, I forgot to ask her name better luck next time’, tired after facing a life and death situation Red rest his body under the shade of a tree. People would run back home as soon as possible but to him rest is priority or more to laziness. Even in the area of danger his laziness still win against basic instinct.

While resting his body, he then thought about his clear disadvantages in this world, the inability to protect one selves. Receiving help may be good but when you are all alone it just mean one thing, dead. He thought of a few scenarios and based on the monster boar it would be dangerous as the progress further on. What he mean progress is the progression of event that usually start with lesser creature that then further becoming more stronger. With the appearance of the elf just now, he further confirm that this world may have other races such as dwarf, haflings, orc, demons or maybe even dragons. So to tackle those kind of problem in the future, he need to think about countermeasure for those problems.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

First thing first is increasing the vitality and resistance status to further increase the percentage of surviving. But he doesn’t even know what kind of actions that influence the rise and fall of status. Even with his 3 hours plus of running, nothing seems to rise only pain and fatigue, putting that aside for now. Red rise with his dead tired body and ran back to the castle with a slower pace from before. One thing for sure is he need to read some books regarding this new found world.

As night beckons, Red manage to arrive at the outskirt of the town near the castle. First and foremost it was a lively town, even as night has fall the town was still bustling with people enjoying themselves. There was one street flourishing with people a street called BokuBoku street. The street mostly holds pubs or leisure place but one place attract the eyes of Red, a public bath house. With his muscle sore body taking a dip would surely relieve some of those pain. ‘huhh~~ this is the life, damn that instructor making me run like that and damn those two getting special privileges cheh!’ then the door shutter could be heard open and a person leisurely dip beside our hero as he relaxes. He was a bit uncomfortable at first but tend to get over it after a while.

Then a voice spoke besides him, ‘ araa so this is where the low status hero is’ a cynical female voice can be heard. Flabbergasted by the female voice, he keeps his calm and try to keep his anxiety at bay. This is how he usually is, rather than being affected by the action of others he tend to ignore those who try bother him in every possible way. Removing the soak towel from his head, he turn to his side and saw a beauty. then at that moment a thought came to his mind, why every woman that he met in this world seems to be beautiful is his luck changing or just someone playing with him by sending this out of the world beauty.

Anyway back to the situation, what at his side was a beauty, the beauty could be described as a rare one. Her skin was brownish in colour with her facial features resembles the black American beauties, her black wet hair flow to the side and the most distinct part of her facial features is a scar most likely made from a blade that rundown at the left side of her face it certainly add on the mysterious and daring effect but even without she still look charming as it is by the way her rack was enormous even without looking at it Red can see a pair of floating balloons in front of her.

After confirming her looks now the question and answer part, ‘you know this is the men bathing side right’ ‘I don’t think so, usually this place can be a unisex’ ‘eh really? I thought the sign upfront was for the mens’ ‘ it say unisex if u read it carefully’ ‘ouh I see then its fine then to bathe together’ only a snicker came from her after Red’s remark, trying to control my lustful urge I put back the wet towel back to my head covering my eyes while laying down as before. ‘and why does the hero of the light is using the public bath house whereby not using that was provided by the castle?’, Red was baffled because how could she know that he is one of the heroes that was summoned. Not to be bothered by it he just answered it ‘ my body is dead tired and sores all over, no energy left to go back anyway who sent you?’ ‘ooo so you know who I am?’ ‘how about just answering rather than questioning back’ ‘ then it wouldn’t be fun wouldn’t it’ ‘ huh~ fine then so who are you’ ‘ hmm lets just say im one of your guardians watching over you’ ‘then who set you up, the king I presume’ ‘ hehe then you better found out after arriving at the castle, the king is searching for you’ ‘im tired you know, don’t you have a carriage or horse outside that I can ride’ ‘ ouh you know how to ride a horse?’ ‘no I don’t know I just want to back hug you while riding back to the castle’ ‘ cheeky hero, you like my body don’t you’ ‘I didn’t say so, just want to get back home’ ‘ then I will wait for you outside my hero’ ‘yeah ok’ then the water splash out of the tub most likely due to the difference in density that occur what it means density is of course those huge mounds, after her footsteps fade away out of the scene Red then get up and readied himself.

Putting back on his attire he then step out of the bath house witnessing blackish women clad in partially metal armour with a skimpy attire as her center clothes. Not really defensive purpose wouldn’t it. Red then rode at the back of the horse, hugging her fine muscle waist it was delicate and at the same tender. The horse then run as fast as the wind toward the castle.
