I haven't leveled up because I have to go to a ceremony next year to get my job. After that I'll be able to level up. My level depends on what job I get. I can get common skills but nothing more than that. I also trained with a staff so I can use a staff as a walking stick and a weapon. It was a pain at the beginning of using the staff. I kept on falling a lot because of my legs, but I had gotten accustomed to using mostly my upper body.
"Are you ready to go to the human village?" Aico asked me. Aico is a black cat but she has short demon horns on her head, and I picked the name Aico.
"Not really, but everyone is forcing me. I really want to stay here with everyone. You all are my family." I felt tears welling up in my eyes.
"You know it's best for you in the long run. You need to be with other humanoids so you can grow."
"I know, I know. That's what I've been told, I just don't want to leave everyone." I looked into the lake we were talking by, and I see a girl with green eyes and shoulder length blonde hair, and I see a green turtle tail poking out from behind this girl. She also had fins on her arms and legs. She had on a leaf dress made by the plants themselves. Yes, this girl is me. "I guess we should get going now."
"Yeah, let's."
"Don't go yet." I see Minori running up to us in her nine tailed fox form. "I want to give you something. It should help quite a bit." a staff had appeared out of thin air right in front of me. "Take this staff, it will help you recover your mana when it is stored away."
"Thank you so much. I will treasure it forever."
"Prick your finger and press it to the staff, then it will be sealed to you."
I held out my finger and a branch came and pricked my finger. I pressed my finger to the staff and it glowed slightly. I then stored the staff away. I didn't want to show it off to anyone so I'll be using my other staff for the time being. "Now, I'm off to the village."
We started walking towards the nearest village to this forest. I was using my staff to help take off some of the burden on my legs.
After about 2 days of walking, we finally made it to the outskirts of the forest. "Ugh, my legs hurt." I sit down on the ground while rubbing my legs.
"This is where we part. We hope you live your best life." Aiko said to me as she disappeared into the forest.
"I don't want you to go." I whispered. I had tears start to fall down my face. "Please don't leave me." I didn't say any of this loud enough for Aiko to hear me. I go to hug my knees. I don't know this feeling that I am feeling, but I feel a tightness in my chest and it feels like the trees are closing in on me. I never had this problem before and I was alone a few times, but this time is different. I feel lonely now without anyone by my side.
I sat there for a couple hours just crying softly to myself. I finally got the courage to stand back up. I use the staff to prop myself up. My legs are shaking terribly as I start to make my slow trek out of the forest and towards the town.
I make it to the gate that goes into the town. "Stop, who are you?" I couldn't understand what he just asked me
I end up dropping to my knees. I was so exhausted from the trek through the forest. I end up passing out there.

I wake up and I see that I'm on a soft object that I've never seen before. "Whoa, it's so soft." I said in the animal language.
"What did you say?" I look at who spoke and see a little boy around my age looking at me curiously. He had brown hair and blue eyes, and he was wearing a brown shirt and brown pants.
"She just said that the bed is soft, but she spoke in the language of the animals." An elf walked over to the boy's side. He was a wood elf and he had brown eyes along with brown hair. He then turns to me. "Where did you come from?" He actually spoke my language.
"From the forest, my friends told me to come to this village. They said it was what was best for me."
"Oh, really, and who were your friends?"
"There was Sable, Aico, and Minori, along with a bunch of others."
"That doesn't help much, are they all animals?"
"Well, one is a sabertooth tiger, another is a demon cat, and the last is a nine-tailed fox. They were the ones closest to me."
"Wait, hold on a second, those are all high ranking beasts. They are ranked B, S, and M respectively."
"What are rankings?" I tilt my head curiously.
"You don't need to worry about that, yet. I will be back one moment." he then runs out of the room but not before I analyze him.

I then scan the boy.

Pov Agis
I had ran out of the room to get the adventurers' guild master. I eventually made it to the adventurers' guild. "I need to talk to the guild master now, it's urgent."
"Yes, I'll get him now." a clerk told me.
A few minutes had gone by and the guild master made his appearance. "What is so important, Agis?"
"We need to talk in your office."
"Okay, follow me." He led me to his office. "Now, have a seat. So, what is so important?"
"The girl the guard had brought in is awake now."
"Yeah, is that the important part?"
"Well, she doesn't speak Ezani, which as you know is the most common language between all the races."
"What does she speak then?"
"She speaks the ancient animal language and she said she lived with a Sabertooth tiger, a Demon cat, and a nine-tailed fox."
"Wait, she can speak the ancient animal language, but only wood elves should know how to speak that. From what I saw she is only a turtle-kin, and you said she lived with a nine-tailed fox, was the fox's name Minori by chance?"
"Yes, that's what she told me."
"So she lived in the middle of the forest, with the help of Minori, I assume, that is."
"That's why I came here to tell you. She was living with a mythical level monster, of whom I've met only once."
"Here, take this crystal and scan her abilities to see what her skills are." He handed me an analysis crystal. It helps to analyze people in place of the analyze skill.
"I will be off now."

Brim gets up into my face. I instinctively reach for my staff but it isn't near me. "Stay back." I told him but he doesn't seem to understand me.
"What are you speaking?" He asked me but of course I don't understand him either. I summon my legendary staff. It was made of wood with leaves sprouting from it. It also had a flower on top that changed with my emotion. It was the color of dark yellow
"Stay. Back." I said in Ezani. The more they spoke Ezani the more I could process it.
The door then flew open and Agis came into the room. "What's going on? What happened?"
"Too. Close."
"Was he too close to you?" he asked in Animal.
I shake my head, yes.
He finally notices my staff. "Wait, that staff…" he trails off. I made it to my other staff, so I made my legendary staff disappear and I grabbed my other staff. He clears his throat. "Okay, could I see your skills so I can confirm something?"
"No, it's my skills." I refused him, something inside me told me not to let him see my skills.
"Okay, I won't push you to do anything you don't want to." I walk towards the door to go outside. "Wait, you still need to rest."
"No, I don't want to stay inside." I walk into the hallway. I push myself out of the way just in the knick of time. I saw someone in a hood and he had two daggers in his hands. He rushes at me. I vault myself over his head and I scan him at the same time.

He keeps attacking me with his daggers and I'm just barely dodging his strikes. After a minute of straight dodging I start to feel tired. He scratches my skin a few times. I then attack back. I place my staff, and bring my body off the ground and kick at him. He dodges my attack, and I feel a collar get attached to my neck. I feel a strong shock through my body and I pass out.
