The King of Tricks and Magic

Chapter 3: Survival

Chapter 3: Survival

As Oz got summoned into this world of magic in a magical forest, he needs to try his best to survive in this magical forest, the forest is full of danger, he can’t let his guard down even for a minute cause he didn’t know whether the beast here is the same as the beasts at earth. Even when he is sleeping, Oz keeps his guards up and wakes up every single suspicious sound was heard.

But a lack of sleep is not a stranger for oz, as he does research, training, and strategize his tricks in a whole day, he only sleeps for 1 hour a day.

The only problem he’s currently struggling with is, he’s in a magical forest that full of danger with his body weakened.

(It seems the appraisal knew even my real name, makes me remember that I use Oz for my alias after getting inspiration from the movie Oz the great and powerful)

(But the thing that shocked me the most is whose body is this? As I remember, my skin is rather tanned but this color is very pale)

(And the most important part is, this body needs to be trained, it’s way too weak! in order to survive in this magical forest, I need to build it up steadily until it went back like how my body was. I don’t know what kind of danger is waiting for me.)

To utilize his former skills, he needs a strong body that compatible with his moves, so he needs to train his body as soon as possible.

For the rest of the day, Oz search for a way to get out of the magical forest.

As the night came, Oz climbs a tree and eat the fruits from a dragon fruit-like fruit tree that seems like edible.

Sitting at one of the branches and eating the sweet fruit, Oz wander his thoughts about everything he encounters since he got summoned to this world, first he thought about the magic cards, The appraisal said that by using the normal cards he could give some damage to the enemy, but does the number of the health point of the enemy is the same as the damage the card gave?

He checked and try to use a normal card number 10 to attack a tree with a health point of 1000.

*Swish* The tree got chopped immediately by 1 strike from Oz.

(If the card number 10 is supposed to give 100 damage to the tree, then the tree should not be chopped in one strike from the card, it meant that the damage from the cards is utilized according to the one who used it huh.)

“Interesting…” Oz silently muttered.

After testing some other things about the cards he starts to understand the using of the cards, and he starts to imagine in case he would get into a battle using the cards. After thinking for some time, he starts to sleep.

—-_——-_——-_—–_——-_——-_——_——-_——_—-_—–_——-_——_——–_—-_—–_—-_-

The sun has risen high to the sky, Oz wakes up because of the dazzling light from the sun. He smiled.

“Thank God, I thought there won’t be any sun in this world, thankfully there is still sun and a moon existed,” he said relieved.

When he about to jump down from the tree, he remembered that he had an appraisal card, can’t he use it on the fruit?

He imagines using the skill, and a status board shows up.

[Kraken fruit [Legend]

A fruit made from a tree that planted by planting a Kraken core to a dense mana soil, a fruit with very dense ice and water element, greatly helps cultivation of ice and water element.]

When Oz looks at the appraisal, he can’t help but be shocked, the thing he ate yesterday is actually a very rare fruit, he didn’t know how rare a legendary item is but with the name we could expect that the fruit is quite rare.

(Helps the cultivation of ice and water element? Maybe it’s one of the reasons why I don’t feel cold last night despite having a weak body like this.)

The fruit is good for the cultivation of this world, but even if Oz ate all of the fruits, he won’t get any benefit from it, because in his former world there is no such thing as cultivating mana. There is only about building up your body and utilize the body to break the bounds of normal body limits and surpass ordinary humans, with cultivating internal energy of qi that exists in the muscles, people could have superhuman strength, that’s how Oz could change his position as if he teleports back then.

After checking all the fruits Oz tried to change the fruits he collects into cards, *poof* all the fruits change into cards

[Kraken Fruit cards [Items] ]

“Success!” He celebrated.

After Oz finished collecting all of the fruits, he starts to wander in the forest again to train his body and searching an exit from the magical forest.

About 1 hour after collecting the fruits, Oz is walking slowly in the forest. Suddenly, he senses a presence of a living being qi coming from his left, since coming to this magical forest he hasn’t encountered any animals or monsters, but from how the presence is felt, it seems that it is not a human.

Growl!

A growl could be heard and Oz increases his guards, the footsteps are getting closer and closer. Oz gulped. one thing for sure, the qi of the presence that getting to close to him is something that he never encounters, on the other hand, he is nervous because of the lack of information, but on the other hand, he is curious about what he will encounter.

He smirked.

(I hope I could survive this thing)
