Skill Creation in the Fantasy World

Chapter 121: Tribal Village.



Chapter 121: Tribal Village.

Edenmont City.

Outside the northern city gates.

After Felix displayed his ID card and Graham his fake ID card, the both of them walked out of Edenmont City and started making their way into the forest.

As they passed by the crowd leaving behind the main road and entering the wilderness, Graham said as they walked.

"You can remove your mask now, umm...Felix was it?"

The boy gave a wry smile and removed his mask, letting his silver hair fall behind his ears and his crystal-red eyes become clear to the world.

"So Mr.Dealer told you everything about me? I guess he's similar to Steve that way....", Felix said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, you can never trust that guy with anything...."

Graham nodded as he replied and then narrowed his eyes on Felix with growing interest.

"Hmm...Not only are you talented in fighting, but you're also pretty handsome. Seems like you're going to be a lady killer in the near future."

Felix rubbed his head awkwardly and responded with a cough.

"Ahem, I don't think so...cuz I've got no experience with women. In fact, they won't even approach me for who I am."

He muttered in despondent while slightly stretching his lips.

Graham eyed the boy with a certain look and then looked forward at the peaceful forest where the sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating a tranquil atmosphere.

"Women huh....they're a strange bunch for sure.", Graham said lightly.

His words made Felix curious as he asked back in wonder.

"How about you, Sir Graham? Do you have any experience with women?"

Under the shadows of a tall tree, Graham suddenly stopped his steps and made a lost expression on his face.

Felix too stopped there and stared at the man, whose previous dominative aura had turned melancholic.

'What's with that face....did he get rejected or something?'

As Felix didn't want to spend the whole day gazing at the forest and being sentimental with the man, he called out to him.

"Umm are you fine, Sir Graham?"

The man blinked his eyes at his words as clarity returned to him and turned to look at the boy with a strange smile.

"Ah, I'm fine. That was just...forget it..."

He waved his hand, scoffing while shaking his head and then looked ahead at the forest.

"Why don't we dive deeper into the forest? There are rarely any strong monsters we can hunt in the vicinity of the city."

"Sure, I was thinking the same.", Felix replied happily as he was finally going to face some action.

Felix moved his hand over his shortsword, ready to dash into the forest along with Sir Graham.

But before he could take a step forward, the man abruptly grabbed him by the collar and lifted him from the ground.

"W-Wait! What are you doing?"

Felix shouted in confusion as he kicked his legs in the air, and the man replied to him with a chuckle.

"Cheh, did you really think we were going to run all the way into the deep forest?"

Graham asked with a smirk.

Felix calmed himself on his hold and asked the man hurriedly.

"Huh? Then how are we going to go there? Don't tell me you're going to throw me far away into the forest like an arrow...."

Graham shook his head in amusement and replied.

"No-" he suddenly kicked himself up from the ground into the air along with Felix.

"'-We're going to fly over there."

Once he was in the air, his body started floating until he reached above the tall trees and sped into the distance.

Felix who was flying in the air for the first time resisted the wind that was moulding his face as he shouted out excitedly.

"Holy shit! I am flyyyyyiiiinnnnggg!!!"

Twilight Chaos Guild Building.

Main Hall, Lounge.

A beautiful blonde-haired lady sat on a sofa calmly while sipping her tea.

Before her sat a slightly similar looking blonde haired young man who was currently staring down at the floor in guilt.

Elsa placed her cup on a table between them and asked seriously.

"So, is that all that happened on your mission? Or is there something else you've not mentioned?"

Roven raised his head to look at her and nodded firmly.

"Yes sis, that was all."

Elsa narrowed her eyes on him as she questioned in a terrible mood.

"Do you know what you've done? I know that it was the guild's fault for giving you an unsuitable mission, but that doesn't justify your act of hiding a forbidden technique and using it without any knowledge."

Roven bit his lips as he responded with a guilty tone.

"I....I know. It was all my fault. I'm not a worthy leader-"

"I'm not blaming anyone here."

His words got cut off by Elsa who sighed and looked at her brother with pity.

"I'm saying how careless you young ones are at things related to getting stronger. The consequences of using a forbidden technique without any of its knowledge is unimaginable."

"Just look at Steve, if it wasn't for a Rare Rank potion, then he wouldn't have woken up. Not until a few years later."

She continued while taking a sip of her tea and reminded the boy.

"This matter should be considered confidential from now on. I've already mentioned it to Steve, and he has promised me to never use that technique again. The same goes for you and Eric, well he's a mage so there's no possibility of him using it."

Miss Elsa gracefully stood up from the sofa and looked down on Roven with complete seriousness as she declared.

"By the orders of the guild leader, if the both of you are to ever use the forbidden technique to forcibly manifest aura again, then you will be directly removed from the guild."

The harsh punishment of the order made Roven break in a cold sweat, but he didn't resist and bowed his head as he agreed.

"I understand."

Elsa nodded as her face relaxed and softly patted her little brother's head.

"There....you're a grown man now. You have to understand that there are a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders now and that mistakes can always happen. But-"

Roven raised his head, staring at his elder sister who was termed the genius mage of their guild.

"-don't forget that mistakes happen when there is more room for improvement."

She smiled softly and turned around, waving her hand as her lithe body moved away.

"I have work to do now. So don't remain sad and go train yourself to get stronger. Or else you'll be left behind by your teammates."

Roven stood up from the sofa, a small smile at the corner of his lips as he stretched his body.

"Haa...you're right. I've got to grow strong and improve now so that I can be a better leader."

He stopped having any depressing thoughts from the recent mission failure and the harsh consequences, turning the sad feelings into emotions that motivated him.

Roven walked away towards the training room, a new mentality growing in him from his previous laid-back attitude towards life.

*****

Deep into the forest.

Two men lay alert on a thick branch of a tree.

Their eyes were locked onto a tribal village of monsters, who had an average height of 3 meters and muscular dark green-skinned bodies with two tusks coming out from their mouths.

"Let me guess, are they called Orcs?"

Felix asked quietly as he kept his eyes on the barbarous monsters.

"Yeah, you're right. But that's basic knowledge...."

Graham replied without a care, not having any thoughts that the boy beside him was a transmigrator.

Felix shrugged and continued staring at the monsters who were maniacally sparring with each other.

They used their bare fists, although they had weapons on the side, and fought with each other ferociously as if they were not of the same tribe.

Seeing them reminded Felix again that this world was not a peaceful and easily habitable place.

As powerful monsters like these wandered around the world, weak people or the general populace had no way of surviving against them.

If a bunch of these orcs attacked a small human village, then their only option would be to escape or get eaten by the monsters.

This is what happens usually throughout this world, unlike the peaceful world Felix had come from, where except for the fights amongst the humans themselves and the natural disasters, there were not many dangers.

Felix turned to the man as he pointed at the tribe of a couple of hundred orcs they had found many miles deep into the forest.

"Can I face them all alone?", there was terrifying thirst in his tone as he asked.
