Chereads / The Forgotten Wings / Chapter 2 - Cash

Chapter 2 - Cash

I packed the necessary materials to explore the forest.

Removing my shirts to reveal fluffy white wings.

Fluttering my wings, flying away; heading to the darken thick forest.

Once in the forest, I started collecting wooden sticks, building a small tent.

Crackling sounds surrounded me.

"It seems I won't have to explore much"

Reaching towards my bag, picking up two large swords. Casting a buff spell on them.

"Pitiful monster, I'll remove your suffering" My swords slashing the ogre in half. guts flying everywhere, the other monsters retreating.

"Thinking of leaving so earlier? I can't let my cash run away" Chasing over them, cutting them into pieces.

Grapping a bag from the backpack, collecting the monster body parts.

[ Monster body parts could be sold for cash. Higher-ranking people hated hunting, so they bought them at high prices. The stronger the monster, the higher the price. Bones are used to make weapons.]

Using some sticks surrounding me, I made a fire. Stomach growling, I stood up to find breakfast in the woods.

As I wandered around endless, picking up mushrooms and berries. Pulling a book named "Nature Poison". "Hope none of this can make me sick"

Looking through the pages, none were on there. Heading back to the tent as it got dark.

Suddenly, a large amount of mana was released from within the forest.

"A monster must have awakened" I rushed towards the mana jumping on top of trees.

"Rawr!!" an overwhelming amount of power could be felt as I got closer. A long red scaled tail destroying trees as it swung around. "A..a dragon!!??"

Flapping my wings, at sky level, I launched to the large dragon's wings.

As my blades reached the wings, iron pieces went flying. "Oh no..."

"Rawr!!" The dragon flapped his wings pushing me against a tree.

Vision turning black.

I stood up, a nurse was next to me. "What happened to the dragon?" I asked while standing up. "Dragon? You must have imagined that. Dragons have been extinct for centuries. Hunters found you unconscious"

"My swords were destroyed... there is no way I imagined that" Walking outside, heading to the forest.

No tree trunk was broken, the ground was even. My swords were on the ground, unbroken.

"It seems I did imagine this" Walking back to the tent, grapping my things.

I headed to the market to sell my items.

"I wish to sell these monster bones" Waiting for the bag of gold. "Thanks for buying my bones"

Walking through the streets, looking for materials. Although I could summon swords endlessly, they could be easily broken.

Looking for a blacksmith, managing to find one with a broken sign. "Do you sell weapons?"

"Kiddo my weapons are of high price" The blacksmith pushed me outside.

I pulled out my bag of gold coins. "Is this not enough?"

The blacksmiths sparkled when he looked at the gold.

I walked out the blacksmith with two swords. A white glittering sword, the other one being blue with stars imprinted into it.

"Next time I see that dragon I'll make sure to kill it"

Flying towards my dorm as the sun was rising.

Turing on the bathtub on low heat. Undressing, stepping into the bathtub.

Water turning red as the blood drips slowly.

Stepping out, drying myself. Dressing in shorts, shirtless.

I started working on my finals due next week. Planning for the winter break.
