[ Hello there, reader, thank you for continuing my Story ]
Monsters that are bigger and stronger compared to the bear came to see the explosion. An explosion like that will likely scare the weak monsters but will trigger the stronger monsters, who will see it as a threat.
Siah, however, planned everything out already; he knows what he's doing: setting traps, bombing them all at once, showing another granade as he hides in the cave. All the strong monsters gathered, and when they saw each other, they started to fight one another, thinking that they were the cause of the loud explosion.
Pride and also territoriality make the whole scene a riot; they attack one another. Siah has never seen something like that before: a spider that is 8 meters tall, whose feet are 6 meters long and hard like steel, an ogre like in the games, Minotour, Cerberus, and different other monsters I have never seen before.
But one thing is for sure: all of them are hella strong, but... So what if they are strong when you have modern knowledge? Once all of them are gathered, Siah begins his plan.
pitfall trap. With all those big monsters, this trap is basically impossible, but with the use of his system, he makes the impossible possible. By outsmarting the system itself, the system has a feature where anything can be put in the item box. Now, instead of dead monsters bodies, he puts the entire ground into his system, making a large crater.
All the monsters fell into the large hole, and using his gun, he shot one of the monsters dead, giving him points. These points were then exchanged for a customized atomic bomb, specifically tailored to eradicate the gathered monsters without causing widespread destruction. Ensuring minimal collateral damage, Siah used the system to envelop the crater with the ground, forming a protective barrier.
A calculated drop of the modified atomic bomb into the pit resulted in a colossal explosion, sending mushroom-like smoke clouds billowing into the sky. Despite the proximity to the blast, Siah employed the same method used for the pitfall—embedding himself obliquely in the ground within the system, avoiding the immediate danger.
A few minutes later, Siah pushed his way through the underground, "Finally, some sun light" getting out from the buried ground. It feels like he's a different person; his entire body changed; it became more manly; those muscles, abs, and that biceps.
He sat down on the ground and viewed his system. You've gained 100,000 points! "That's worth it, I guess."

"That's some big changes; I can feel that I'm stronger," he said, raising his t-shirt and seeing his abs, full of sweat as he had a hard time dealing with the monsters. "I gained muscles too; huh, welp, I'll take that now, time to get out of this forest."
He bought a drone, and Fly is around as he sits on the ground and eats a sandwich that he bought from the system. As he flies the drone around, the forest is just an entire forest; it's non-stop trees and mountains.
Half an hour later, he can't see an end to the thick forest. He gave up searching through a drone. "Maybe if I climb that mountain, I might find something," he said to himself, and started standing up. He had already made up his mind and began to move towards the mountain.
Little did he know, a terrifying monster was resting on the mountain. Compared to what he had encountered earlier, it's nothing; with just one attack, they are finished with that monster.

Days passed since his journey towards the mountain. He encountered some monsters along the way, but they're nothing new to him now. He did quickly adapt to the environment, where survival is at its best.
While hiking to the mountain, he encountered something, something that he wouldn't expect, a mythical creature that we all know: a dragon, a large black dragon, 15 meters tall, and guessing 100,000 kg? I don't know; I've never seen one before. HAHAHAHHA
Anyways, it's a large dragon. Siah is not dumb enough to fight this dragon; he has zero reason to fight something like that. How about dropping an atomic bomb again? I don't think so. That's a freaking dumb idea.
As he has no reason to fight it anyway, why bother? As he's about to go back, a voice comes to his head: "Human, I know you're there; come out." It's the dragon; he's speaking through my thoughts.
He followed his command and reaveling himself, hiding from a rock. "Can I do something for you?" Siah said with a poker face.
"I was right, judging from your attire, that weapon, your some unusual one, are you? I'm sure that you are the one that caused the explosion the past few days. Reading through your mind, you're another worldy, huh? You died, and a god transported you here? That's an interesting one."
"So you can read my mind; I guess lying won't bring me any good; you're right, I'm not from here."
"Don't get nervous, human. I'm not going to do something to you. Judging from the explosion the other day, even though I wouldn't withstand that, I want to make a deal."
"A deal?"
The dragon pointed at his chest; there's a wound; it's a deep wound; it's like a sword was pierced through it.
"This is the wound I got 30 years ago. It was caused by a hero... an other worlder like you." he glases at Siah.
"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you; I know that very well. Heal me human, and I'll do you a favor."
"A hero causes that. If that's the case, why should I help someone that the hero wants to kill?"
"HAHAHA! of course!" The dragon laughed. "I guess I'll tell you the whole story; I don't care if you believe me or not, but it's worth the shot."
In the dragon's story, he was the leader of his clan. The dragon clan sees black dragons as vengeance by humans, so they take caution when they see a black dragon flying over their city. When the famous hero is summoned, he is used as a political tool, ordering him around for their own good and brainwashing the hero into thinking that what he's doing is for the world, but it is just for themselves, their selfish desires.
They saw our land, rich and beautiful, then the hero and his men came and attacked them, killing everyone. Some of them survived and escaped, but they were hunted by the hero. As the leader, he fought the hero, but it was not enough; the hero was sent by God, and with God's blessing, they couldn't beat him.
Causing him to get injured and flee with his clan, the devastating defeat made them suffer, and others want revenge and start destroying towns and cities. He can't stop them with his injuries; one after another, they left, and until he's the only one, he never saw them again after that.
"Your story might be touching, but that's still not enough for me to heal you; you can just make that up, you know? It's a risk for me too; you might be a devil inside and want to take revenge after you're healed."
"Well, I can't blame you for thinking of me like that. I guess I need to do this; I don't have anything to lose anyway. How about a contract?"
"Contract?"
"It's where two participants agree to a certain deal; when one breaks the deal, he or she will die."
"I've heard of this before in some isekai anime; it's kind of hard to trust if that's true, but... I guess I have no choice but to trust you, no? So let's do it."
A magic circle then suddenly pops out on the ground where we are standing and says, "Just follow what I say."
"I, the leader of the black dragon clan, participate in this deal."
"I, Siah, from another world, participate in this deal."
"Heal me, and I will devote my body and soul to you."
Siah looks at the dragon, and he's serious about what he said; he just goes along with it. "I, Siah, agree to this contract."
"Give me a name."
"A name?" Siah thought for a moment. "Fuku, how's that?"
"That's fine," he said, when, all of a sudden, the magic circle got so bright that it blinded me. I covered my eyes, and a few seconds passed, and the light disappeared.
What I see is a human standing where the dragon is supposed to be. "Wait, don't tell me you're...?"
"That's correct, I'm Fuku."

The system pops up and gives details about Fuku.
"Why did you become a human?"
"No, I'm still a dragon; this is my human form, since I will be traveling with you from now on."
"Wait, what?"
"The deal was for you to heal me, right? But with you now, you can't. I have guts that since you're from another world, you will achieve highs, and one of those is to be able to heal me."
"Okay, fine, but first, let me get you something to wear; you're fcking naked."
Fuku has black hair and an elegant body, which you can exactly see in a feminine woman, but he has short hair. Is it he or she?
The two of them are sitting on a picnic mat that Siah put on the ground. "Are you a boy or a girl?"
"Ah, I'm neither; you see, dragons don't intimate like others to create an egg; when two powerful dragons combine their magic, they can create an egg."
"So, like, you don't have a gender then?"
"Well, there are rare scenarios where a dragon falls in love with another race, and they can change gender based on their preference; if they fell for a boy, they could change their gender to a girl; the same goes for the other."
"Ohhh, I see. So you never fall in love? Because if you do, then you should have a gender by now, right?"
"You got it."
"Okay then"
"I've been curious; what is that blue thingy that you've been touching?"
"Eh? You can see the system?"
"That's called a system?"
"What is on the screen?"
"Different clothes that I have never seen before"
"Waaaaa, you really can see it!" Siah began to get excited.
"How about you pick your own clothes? Try touching them."
Fuku tries to touch it, but it just goes through. "So you can't touch it, but you can see it, huh?"
"Maybe because of the contract? We're connected to each other, making me able to see your system."
"Ohhh, maybe. Well, let's not think of it as a big deal. Here, just tell me what your preferences are, and I will try to search for them, then pick what you like."
"Hmmm..." Fuku thought for a moment.
"How about black clothes? Something elegant but not too fancy."
"I think I know one." What he searched for was a black suit.
Siah and Fuku stare at the system and say, "Hmmm, you look like a servant if you wear a suit."
"But I am your servant."
"Huh? So what you told me on the contract where you gave me your body and soul is..."
"That's right, I am willing to catch a bullet for you."
"Huh?" Siah giggled. "Where did you get that?"
"Well, I've been going through your memories; don't worry, all that you permit is the only thing I'm able to read; if what you think is a private memory, then I can't read it."
"That's good then, so is the suit what you like?"
"Yup, that's perfect."
Siah brought the suit for Fuku to wear; it's perfect; he looks... charming.
If I were to describe him, it's the 'Sebastián' you see in every story.
"Can you give me a cloak too? If we go to a settlement looking like this, we will catch some attention."
"Sure,"he said while buying him a cloak from the system. "Speaking of a settlement, do you know how to get out of this forest?"
"Oh, well, we can get out if I fly you to the nearby one."
"So this forest is so large that we need you to fly to get out of it?"
"That's right, because this forest is the demon forest."
Siah gave him the cloak, "Demon Forest."
Fuku wears it: "Yup, as the name suggests, this forest is cursed; the monsters here are far stronger than the monsters outside; that's why there are no settlements nearby."
"I see, so you're strong enough to live here?"
"Yup"
"Okay then, let's get out of here; I want to explore this world."
"As you wish."
He transformed into a dragon, and I hopped into his back, we flew towards the nearby settlement for an hour. If I'm correct, we're flying at the speed of a plane; that's how this forest is so large.
