Chereads / I am not the Hero! / Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: Leaving the nest

Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: Leaving the nest

After all it only took 5 months of teaching and we are Actually Finally able To Go out on our own?

i wonder how and what the outside of Akua village looks like...

We are outside of the carriage on the 2nd day in the middle of the road,,, this is our stop Currently the sun is setting... all of the passengers have a camp of their own with our personal tents... while the coachmen sleep while also being guarded by 2 knights each

We are quite Protected huh?

I wonder if every country does this to any Far worlder... Well it's not like i'd stay in the capital! i'd talked about being adventurers with my party and they Don't mind it, They even Want to be adventurers so we could atleast do quest and get paid, Well... adventurers are more like mercenaries but atleast has more freedom that capital Knights... too strict!

"Onii-chaan i'm cooold uwaaa~"(Rui)

it is quite cold... But NOT to the point you want to hug someone for body heat!!!

"oi, oi aren't you an [elemental]? shouldn't you be atleast immune to natural cold?"(Kuro)

"E-eh? N-no it's not! I'm cold you seee~!? Guununu~"(Rui)

No that's Just hugging yourself and wrapping your blanket around yourself -,-

"Oi kuro, it's me endou Come here for a second"(Endou)

eh? why not come to us instead?

"what is it?"(Kuro)

"i've heard you want to be adventurers after this? Well You should Atleast come to Springfall Town they said they have a nice adventurer's guild there... well mostly because when i was talking to one of the coachmen he's actually a Merchant, and said he can help me start a business along with arthur! so why not huddle together in one place?"(Endou)

"that's... quite a good choice but we'll look out the place on our own... we'd still visit there so don't worry, it's because i had an eye for VividLake they said it's much safer there so i can atleast slowly get stronger, don't worry when i actually get results i'll think about when to move with them"(Kuro)

It's not just about how advantageous The place is... I need safety for now after all i don't want to be a burden By the girls TvT

Awooooooo~!

"H-Hounds!"

A coachman went running towards the patrolling knights

wait!? If houlers is already that big... then don't tell me...

"Do not fear! i am the Hero! i am here!"(sube)

Slice!

"ha! i was too strong fo you! hahahahaha! i didn't even put much strength over that slice!"(Sube)

Did he just F*cking One hit a 1 meter tall wolf? They are just too OP T-T

"H-Hero! you saved my life! Praise the Goddesses!"

"It wasn't a big deal it was just an ant passing through Hahaha!"(Sube)

You are stroking his ego too much, Well he did One hit that wolf though

"Now, Are you convinced Rui-chan? it's not to late tp join my party and i can make you feel the best happiness everyday Kuhahahaha!"(sube)

Too vulgar! i want to f*cking kill this guy right now! that's it imma go all out

(Stop you can't defeat him now!) (Chrona)

eh? but chrona-sama he F*cking said too much!

This time Ayame stopped me and said "calm down"

"Eh? it's just an ant as you said Sube-san, Why would i be impressed about it? Only onii-chan can impress me even if he does nothing, i will worship him"(rui)

You can really say crazy things with a straight face and i'm afraid i might get used to it!

"Tch! You actually Dare? Fine Let's see One day you will come to me and beg me to take you from your useless brother then at that time we'll have a good time Kuhahahahaha!"(Sube)

"Don't mind him Onii-chan! Rui will always be by your side!"(Rui)

She puffs her chest out and Eyes Glimmering with anticipation, Waiting for my praise -,-

"yes, yes Your Weak Big Brother Won't Leave Rui"(Kuro)

(hmmm, Kuro You should try to Absorb The Dead Hound) (Chrona)

Hm? Ok I can atleast try...

I told my Party that i'll check out the Hound, Even though we already saw it They Insisted to go with me but i Denied and only said I'll take a quick check

Atleast no one is Looking...

""(Kuro)

As i reach and touch the Giant Hound's Body It was Instantly Covered in Dark Pitch black smoke the only first Black that i've seen since coming to this world... it's pure black that it's darker than the surrounding night, well it's mostly thanks to the [Game's Perspective]

After what took about 10 seconds the smoke Immediately Went inside My Body Each Felt As if Making Me stronger

{Succesfully absorbed a lvl 9 Hound!}

{Skill Absorb Wasn't succesful!}

{Some of your Stats Went up!}

{Beast Body,Blood and Aura 1.4%}

{When the conditions have reached 100% A permanent Passive Buff Skill Will Be given}

Eh? I can get stronger by Absorbing things? Wait wait wait! Isn't this almost a cheat!?

(Be careful, and be mindful of what you absorb Stupid Kuro! not everything can be absorbed Something can Actually Have an effect Positive nor negative to your status!) (Chrona)

Y-yes chrona-sama i'm sorry i got too excited ehehe~

{For successfully Absorbing a lvl 9 Hound It is currently Compatible to Your [necromancer] skill, Would you Like to Save This Hound? number of souls That can be Brought 0/8}

Are? So when i absorb i get to chose to make it my Summon? Also Saved summons Can be repeatedly summon at the Cost of mana, was a mixture of Charm and Undead Magic that's How Skeleton's Appeared through smoke and instantly Obeyed me rather than which Is Pure Undead magic that Binds the Dead Creatures of the Surrounding area, But or by calling out the specific soul You can summon it any time at the cost of your mana, also The more you get stronger Your saved Summons will also Get stronger Correspondingly, they also level up which is the bad News -,- They're already stronger than me, That when I level up they also get stronger, then When THEY also level up They even get stronger again! seriously! My Saved Summons Will Constantly Get stronger at this point T-T

"Sure"(Kuro)

{Saving was successful! Number of Saved Summons Must not exceed the Limit 1/8 or else the souls that was summoned will return to the void and never be summoned again}

This is like Solo leveling huh? well atleast I Keep getting stronger, although not Solo i have my party after all

"Eh? where's the Hound's body?"(Coachman)

Oh shit! gotta Get back to the camp!

"Oi, nii-chan what took you so long?"(Rui)

"Eh? it was only 3 minutes though?"(Kuro)

right thankfully i have the System UI with me to show what time it is :D

"it felt like eternity!"(Rui)

"What re you talking about -,- Anyway you guys should sleep i'm not that sleepy yet"(Kuro)

"ah, about that Ayame Nee-chan is already Sleeping on her tent"(Rui)

"Now, you should also sleep we still have 4 days before we reach the capital"(Kuro)

She replied with "hai!hai! Oyasumi Onii-chan!" and i kissed her on the forehead as the usual And went back to the camp, thank fully we have separated camps but not farther than 20 meters each, You can still see the Light of the campfire but Mostly Just that The surrounding are for them Would Be pitch black after all, Unless you are an Elemental like Rui Which Has Constant a better version of Just Like Ayame-san's Which can easily see in the dark i don't know about the others though...

"Time to pack up we're ready to Go!"(Coachmen&Guards)

After 10 Minutes of Leaving Nothing behind the camp we're set on and ready to take on the road!

An for 3 hours straight, came to a Sudden Stop It's still 9am on my System So it's about to get hot later on...

"*Murmur*"(Coachmen)

Hm? i went outside to look at the commotion

"Don't worry i'll take care of what ever comes near our Carriage"(Sube)

"But what about the other Hounds that might get near the others?"(Coachman)

"They should fend for themselves after all I cannot save Everybody, They've been taught at the village so they should somewhat Carry themselves"(Sube)

Eh? I thought a Pack of Hounds will come? why'd it stop? i mean it would still stop if the pack came but... what are they talking about?

(Be ready Kuro) ( Chrona )

You too chrona-sama?

After 10 minutes of discussion the coachman went to our carriage as the last party...

"We are about to Run into a Den of Beast Hounds, You should do what ever you can to Protect ourselves"(Coachman)

Eh!? did i hear that right!? We're heading straight to a den of Those Giant Wolves!?

"We could've Taken a Way to Avoid it but it will take another week to Get back on the Road"(Coachman)

I Honestly Want to Choose that... But Instead of Being Afraid i Actually want to encounter these Wolves... I have found a Way to absorb them after all >:D

"Understood"(Kuro)

"I'll protect you no matter what Nii-chan"(Rui)

"Just stay at my back I'll punch them into space if possible"(Ayame)

ah yes Ayame has strength and agility Sitting at the 300+ it's very OP already TvT

After about 2 hours of Nervousness, We finally heard Wolves Howling at the distance

"thankfully the village gave us Weapons to fight with"(Kuro)

Thankfully i wasn't Killed because i was a [necromancer] TvT Far worlders are an exception so that's Nice

They actually threatened me if i used [Necromancer] for evil purposes though TvT

the Weapon they gave to my classmates where all made out of Bronze weapons for the Mid tier And Iron for those the strongest Ayame Has Iron Gauntlets while Rui has an Iron staff

me? They gave The BEST for the Last

a Wooden Wand and a Wooden Katana :>

good stuff am i right?

"Don't worry about me I can find a way to Fight for myself"(Kuro)

"Oi, Don't push yourself Kuro-kun"(ayame)

Ayame-san Glares at me

I can Really Defend my self You know -,-

"Seriously, I'm not kidding"(Kuro)

I Protest

Awoooooo~

Awooooooooo~( a lot, Yes a LOT of Wolves )

"They're Here!"(Coachmen)

"I'll Protect You Fia! The others Protect your selves I can't Handle Them all!"(Sube)

"Roger That!"(Classmates)

Psh... Even though The Knights are supposed to Protect us they'd actually Support The hero than Protect the Passengers -,-

My classmates are defending Themselves Albeit They can Kill them easily they're still nervous since this is their first encounter, most were confident and composed not letting a single Beast Hound Get through... but the others who had no Combat Power and only Skills that was taught at the Village Hid behind them and Only Fought Whichever was near

For me? Well The Horrid Shifters Were More Horrifying! We're the Last Carriage so we can only defend ourselves in the open

"Where are you Going Kuro-kun! stay behind me!"(Ayame)

Oi oi just because you can Defeat them Without even Trying to, Doesn't mean i can't beat them -,- I'mm a Far worlder for Goodness sake!

"I'll show you what i can do Ayame-san"(Kuro)

i Immediately used to dash towards 3 wolves That was Cautiously Observing Ayame-san(Or actually They're now Observing me because i'm The one That came near)

"Kuro-Kun!"(Ayame) "Onii-Chan!"(Rui)

Wait, You haven't seen me Fight yet! I'll put these common skills With Black belt Martial arts In Good use!

Oraaaaaaaaa!!!(Battle cry)
