I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~
Episode 8 - The Sky-Running Toddler, That's Me
"Glenn and Sage, pieces go into the woods with me. Dent picked about three of the rest of the men to watch around the village. The latter take care of the fields as usual. Report anything to Ginger.
After one night, it's early in the morning. I don't go into the boulders, into the midnight forest. It's reckless.
There is little water left in the stream, and the gravel at the bottom of the river is exposed to the air. There are a few puddles left. After all, something happened upstream.
Everyone in the village is gathered in the square in front of the village chief's house and instructed by the village chief. If it was true, I would only collect adults, but now I'm the only child in the village, so it seems you should gather them all. Are you worried about leaving only one person behind?
Glenn is talking about his father. My father is not as good as the village chief, but he is quite skilled. Shield fighters and tankers who are good at handling shields and sticks. There's also a bracelet on the handsome guy... God, isn't that too much? Actually, is she a goddess? Shit, handsome, blow it up and scatter!
Sage and Piece are good at bows, and the village chief and five people who have added dents to these three are always against monsters. Dent is skinny, fast, and good at handling daggers. No one can use magic.
"Dismiss, and start acting individually. Ginger, I'm sorry, but after breakfast, make lunch for four. I'll be back in the evening at the latest, just in case. One meal is fine.
Is it difficult for the village chief to spend the night in the woods?
Ginger is the village chief's wife, a happy, pale, brown-haired beauty. The mole on the lower left lip is colorful. The village chief and I knew each other from the adventurer era, and they said that they were the signs of the inn. Its height is slightly over 160cm, but its body is dynamite. It's probably already in the 30th road, but it doesn't feel relaxed. Kesicalan.
Don't you think I like tits? No, no, it's in the old man's quote, isn't it? "No cheeks on my boobs." Everything is equally noble.
"Okay. I'll make it right away, just a minute.
Even though it's a lunch box, at best it's about dried meat, bread, and raw vegetables. Bread is made of wheat, but fermentation is also weak on whole wheat, so it is quite hard. It's more dry bread than bread. I don't use salt, so I don't taste it. Shut up, it's not delicious. It may be useful to spread the knowledge of fermented bread for soft and delicious bread.
So, after breakfast, my father and the village chief and two others walked from the only gate north of the village toward the forest. The village is surrounded by a fence about two metres high, so we have to go almost halfway along the fence.
"Follow me, Ton-chan. If it doesn't bump, give it to me.
I don't have a job, so I'm talking to my father from inside the fence, and I'm on my way.
"Hey, listen to your mother and wait for her.
My father doesn't seem particularly upset. I'll give it back with a smile. Your liver is unexpectedly fat, as long as you can count on it.
After a while, we reached the southern end of the fence. I waved my hand at my father who was gradually leaving, and explored the signs of the forest. There are signs of solidification a little further back, about 4 km from the village. Just around the source of this stream. Maybe it's because of these guys.
Wolves, monkeys, and some insect monsters form a herd. These monsters are not as strong as the left (because they are not strong, they are a herd), but they are quite troublesome in a herd. It is simply ravaged by a number of violent acts. If you show me a little bit of a gap, it will attack you like a fury. Even if one or two could manage, it would be very bad if 5 or 10 could come. However, it would be easier if we could deal with it calmly because we would still not cooperate.
The problem is if it was a "monster who made a herd and collaborated," or "demon race."
In this world, intelligent life is not just human. In addition to the classic subhumans such as elves and dwarves, there are also demons such as oaks and goblins. The difference between subhumans and demons is unclear and seems to be divided according to whether it is possible to coexist with humans or not. In fact, dog-eared and cat-eared beasts coexist with humans and are considered subhumans, not demons.
Oh no, cat mimi!
On Earth, it's like distinguishing between livestock and wildlife. It cannot be said to be a selfish distinction of mankind. However, Goblins and Orcs are clearly enemies of humanity. After all, Goblins take people and subhuman women and turn them into breeding mothers, and orcs eat up all the flora and fauna in their habitat.
Ah, it seems that the orcs in this world are just bad eaters and big eaters, and they don't target human women for reproduction. Just eat. I don't think there's any Princess Knight or Elf's "Kuroko". (Too bad?).
If the signs of the forest were such a demonic species, it might be a bit bad. Even though they are less intelligent than humans, they have enough wisdom to create simple traps and tools. Some of them say they use magic, so if they are alarmed, they may be retaliated against.
After I saw my dads go into the woods, I started acting.
Dent and the other three seem to have split up. Two people remained as sentries in front of the northern gate, watching the outside of the fence clockwise in the direction of midnight north. Even so, the gate is partially fenced off and the opening and closing is simple enough to move the horse rejection.
All the other villagers are working in the fields. They won't be looking for me till the evening, as usual without me.
To find out what the signs were, the two men on the sentry were heading south through the east side. In other words, now that the tour is over, the east side is a blank zone of consciousness.
When I reach the eastern fence, I activate planar magic after seeing that no one is around. The cube is about 10 cm on one side, and the sole of the raised foot (...).
Anything I make with planar magic can be moved if I touch it, but it basically doesn't move from the spot. You can take it one step further and move it in a direction different from the direction you touched, or you can touch it without moving it from the spot. In other words, you can ride on things that have been put out into space. It is possible to travel on board, but I still can't move as I think. I am in training. That's why we're riding on the elite now, but if we apply this, we can walk through the air by generating objects on the soles of our feet!
Name it "Skywalk"! Perhaps you can become a knight of Jeddah!?
When you cross the fence as if you were climbing an invisible staircase, you run east for a while. With the exception of the woods and mountains, which are almost flat, there are some ups and downs, so I can't find the tall one away from the village.
You seem used to it, but it's not the first time I've used Skywalk to escape. I've been out since I was four, and I train in the woods to fight monsters every time.
You might wonder why you did that, but this is part of your training for the future. If this world were a temperamental fantasy, we thought growth could be level-based. There may be stats and skills I don't know about. If so, keeping the level as high as possible will reduce the risk and may give you some skill. That's what I was thinking.
Fortunately, thanks to planar magic, there is no battle anxiety. All that's left is courage! So I often left the village to hunt monsters.
Well, it didn't seem like a level system, and I haven't heard a level up fanfare yet.
When I first defeated the monster, I thought I might have some sort of repulsion or disgust, but nothing in particular happened. Even when I dismantled it and collected the materials and magic stones, I only felt disgusting when it smelled and became wet. Ethics are still created in the environment. I guess I'm a complete resident of this world, too.
The materials and magic stones collected are hidden outside the fence of the village, slightly to the west, through the roots of the big rock. I'm going to use it to fund my army when I get independent.
The speed of running is not that of a five-year-old. Maybe 100m in the second half of 11 seconds. Of course, not all five-year-olds from different worlds can run at this speed. I'm crazy.
For the past five years, I haven't done anything, so I've been in magic training, but it's a by-product. It's called body strengthening magic.
Without releasing the magic that I had kneaded in my body, I thought I could keep it inside. If I could, it was because I thought that I might be able to save magic all over my body and use it all at once.
As a result, the magic stuck to the body spread slowly and disappeared after about 5 minutes. I was disappointed that I had to think about cutting cards separately... but I tried positive thinking that I might be able to do it if I trained. Then, the time to diffusion remained almost unchanged, but while I was accumulating magic, I found that my physical abilities were improving. Somehow, a baby about six months old was able to walk over the crib fence with Totetote even though he had never been high before. It's amazing. Rather scary. The red ooh girl Tamami is also pale blue.
I was very pleased with the discovery, but it wasn't all good. It probably didn't leak and the next day I had a great muscle ache. I really thought I was gonna die.
Apparently, it's not a magical paranormal phenomenon, it's an enhancement of an inherent function. Unlimited, not amplified. This is probably the result of a muscle that was removed from the limiter being severely used. Thank you for being a good baby to sleep with all day.
After that, I continued to look at folds and used them to improve my pure physical abilities. Thanks to this, I was able to use it partially and overwrite it after I cut it, and I was able to acquire physical abilities far beyond the general 5-year-old even in the vegetarian state.
Now I use planar magic in combination, so it's even faster. Generate a plank-like object on the back of the kicking foot and push it forward as you step out. This makes it possible to accelerate more than normal. It also creates streamlined objects around the body, reducing air resistance as much as possible. This is the secret that a five-year-old can run at this speed. I'll have another muscle ache tomorrow.
After running east for a while, we turn south. Head straight to the woods and run over the woods again on Skywalk. It's hard to run in the woods, and it's troublesome to meet monsters.
I want to get rid of the cause before my father. Maybe I already have more combat experience than my father. I don't want you to be in danger.
Now, do you want to go hunting alone?
