Tree, tree, tree…

Turning around 360 degrees, there are thick trees growing everywhere I look.

A lonely forest with no roads, my feet get covered in bushes with every step.

I can see a faint light through a gap of the branches so it's daytime, but because of the crowded trees, the overall mood is gloomy.

Syl…… wasn't there a little better starting place?

Why here? There should have been many alternatives, right?

"Gururururu."

The person who I separated from a little while ago would probably permit me a complaint or two… While thinking so, I suddenly hear a beast's growl and look around in panic.

Certainly, a beast is running towards me――A Red Wolf.

Red Wolf is a red, large-breed dog-like wolf monster. If I'm not mistaken, it's a Rank C?

It has completely marked me as its prey.

I have no confidence because I'm improvising, but I can't just stand here and let it attack me, so I point my hand like a pistol at the Red Wolf.

"Air Shot."

At the same time I shout, a lump of air shoots from my finger.

I fire compressed air magic which resembles a bullet.

The air bullet hits the target, the Red Wolf "Gyain." whines and gets blown off backward.

I feel relieved that I hit the target properly, but I'm still cautious in case it can still move.

"This from the very beginning……"

Haa… I sigh, approach the Red Wolf's dead body and store it with "Infinite Storage".
