When I woke up, I was floating.

I'm not flying in the sky.

It's floating about a metre above ground.

... Uh, what's this?

I try to keep my head fully operational right after I wake up to grasp the situation, but I couldn't keep up with my understanding at all.

Anyway, I'm floating.

I see that.

But... why am I in the woods?

The ground is peeled out of damp soil, and the trees that are about a hundred years old grow around it.

I was just moving to the back of the woods to sew through the gaps in the trees so I could get wind of them.

I don't have the power to fly in the sky, and I don't know what that means. This guy would be magic.

But who the hell did this to me?

No way, you don't mean I fell asleep and put floating magic on myself.

'Cause I don't have a magic wand (Withers Rod).

When that happens, my parents are the most suspicious...

"Dad? Mom?

Could it be a surprise?

I thought about it and called it that, but there was no reaction between the two of them.

Only my voice echoes in the quiet woods.

"I mean, how long do you keep floating..."

Get out of the way.

The moment I turned around, I suddenly fell to the ground.

Looks like the floating effect has expired. I tried jumping lightly, but it lands right on the ground.

"What the hell is going on?

If it was my father or my mother who did the magic to me, it would also be my father and my mother who drove me into the woods.

Why did you two chase me out of my house?

... You didn't dump me in the woods, did you?

"Yes, no, no, no, no way..."

I desperately deny that possibility.

I couldn't think of a reason to get dumped.

I've been raised so dearly, and I've never said anything selfish.

The rebellion period is over at the time of my previous life, and I've never rebelled against my parents.

Raising me should have been many times easier than other children. I can help you out.

That's why I can't believe my father and mother dumped me.

Then there's no explanation for me being in the woods, but you can ask your father and mother directly about it.

I decided to go home.

I have to go home soon.

Anyway, I'm going to go buy the magic wand I've been waiting for today.

Since when have you been so excited?

At least for the first time since I was reincarnated.

"You can't do this."

I walk in the deep woods.

Walk, walk, walk...

And...

"Where, here..."

I was completely lost.

It's dimmer than it was when I woke up, and more damp air.

Apparently, he got lost deep in the woods.

If you're a regular five-year-old, it's not a strange situation to cry out...

But I wasn't scared.

Sometimes my mental age is much higher than other children's, but more importantly, I have trained martial arts.

I've never given it all my strength since I was reincarnated into this world, but it shouldn't have faded that far.

My body is getting younger, my muscles are weakening... well, about a pig would win.

The problem is encountering demons...

There are demons in this world, so don't accidentally go out of town - the story has been told to my father, but I've never seen a demon since I was born.

I wonder if demons are so obvious to you.

Besides, it's not like we can beat demons.

"We're deep in the woods, which means if we go in the opposite direction, we can get through the woods."

I decided I would walk in the opposite direction, but I don't see a goal at any point.

Besides, I'm getting really hungry.

Speaking of which, I haven't eaten anything today. Afterwards, walking around strikes me with considerable hunger.

Do you want to rest somewhere for a while......

Walking around thinking about that, I found a giant rock nearby. The rocks that suddenly set out in the woods have hollow holes.

Just fine, do you want to rest there?

I walk towards the rocks.

As we approached, the rock looked more and more gigantic. There are many pointed rocks stretching up and down the cavity like ice columns, giving the impression of being like a monster's fang.

And there's something like an eye near the cavity...

Giggle, and.

My eyeballs moved, and he looked down at me.

Without it, he makes a trembling sound of the earth, and the rock rises.

This is not a rock!

A demon!

I've never seen a demon before, but I intuitively guessed. There are animals like this all the time!

"Bumo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!!"

Demons are intimidating me.

At the next moment, demons like the ones that had multiplied the pigs came running at me as they blew up the trees.

The earth trembles, and I stand with the utmost decency.

Shit, they're killing me -!

The moment you face death,

Bump.

I could play something inside me.

The old man was running through the woods.

You can be seen as 100 or 300 years old. He's an old man, with tiny hair and a mustache.

He is walking through the woods at a tremendous speed.

When I was dining earlier, I heard the demon roar.

That's the main demon in this area - the beeping of a behemoth.

By nature, behemoths are quiet creatures.

I'm not weak, I'm haunting the king's room. Even if you try to be surrounded by many wizards, you won't lose your composure. Because behemoth is strong.

Such a behemoth roared all the way over there.

The Lord of the Woods, calm in all circumstances, threatened.

For the first time in the last thirty years, that behemoth is intimidating.

This would mean that a hell of a bucket of stuff appeared in this forest.

As the keeper of this forest, you can't leave such a bucket alone.

"What's going on around here?"

The old man slows his gait and looks around carefully.

"! That...!

A child lay before a giant rock.

Run over in a hurry.

The child was covered in blood.

"Have you been attacked by demons..."

The old man joins hands in front of the wreckage.

But...

"... ooh"

And the child groaned.

He's still alive!

The old man held the child in his arms.

And I doubt my eyes.

"Ko, this is... return blood!?"

The child was covered in blood - but there was not one scratch on his body.

Returning blood means there are wounded people somewhere.

The old man raised his face in search of the wounded.

Fluid descends on the old man's face with a blur.

I wiped it with my hand and it was blood.

……

The old man sees roughly overhead.

There was a big hole in the object I thought was a rock, and there was so much blood coming out of it.

"No way..."

The old man wraps around the front of the rock with the child in his arms.

That's where I was.

"Behemoth!?"

It was the remains of the Lord of the Woods, with a wind hole in his face.

The wind pit continued all the way to the anus and the child was rolling with blood all over it directly beneath it.

And that means...

"This kid... defeated Behemoth..."

I mean, this child is the Teng himself who frightened that behemoth.

The moment I thought about it, the old man shuddered.

It's not fear.

This is - exhilarating.

The old man smiles unexpectedly.

"We finally found him. My successor!"
