"That... she's always loud. I just do whatever I want."
In the forest, a man is walking with a fishing rod and a bucket. If you just look at that, you can see that the man is fishing in the forest. However, that man was also carrying a backpack, carrying a long sword at his waist, and wearing armor. The man also appeared to be a soldier.
The man skipped training and took out his armor and weapon to go fishing in the forest. He was sure that there would be severe punishment when he returned, but that was fine. He was stopped by a fellow soldier from the same unit today, but he came here with a good role.
"That beautiful lake I heard about in town... I'm sure it's here. I've been walking for half a day."
The man had heard of the beautiful lake he caught in his ear while shopping for the army, and he wanted to go fishing. The man comes from a poor village and lives fishing every day. Fishing like that was a way for a man to live, and it was also the only time to be comfortable.
It remained the same even now when he was kicked out of the village for lowering his mouth and volunteering to serve in the army for life. Finally, the man reached his destination as the sun set after he kept walking.
It was a beautiful spring that appeared in the forest. It's not that big, but you can see the fish's flickering shadow. The man thought to start fishing immediately, but the sun was already setting. Then he decided to set up camp before it got dark.
Get your tent and sleeping bag out of the backpack on your back, and when you're ready to go camping, get some kindling and start a fire. The food was dried meat and ticked bread stolen from a military grocery store. The man was dissatisfied, but tomorrow he will be able to catch and eat fish, therefore will survive until then.
Next morning. The man woke up at sunrise and immediately started fishing. The bait is in the form of insects that come out by digging into the ground. It was very easy, but he caught his first one within about 10 minutes of starting fishing. After that, he continued fishing and caught five good-sized fish during breakfast.
The man rested and burned all the fish and ate them. He didn't have enough for dinner yesterday, so this still isn't enough. Anyway, the man found ingredients he could eat in the forest and started fishing again. It seems that the next fish caught with this will be eaten as well as grilled.
As the man continued fishing after his meal, the bushes behind him shook. When the man averted his eyes, several goblins came out of the bushes. If you grill fish in a forest like that and smell it, monsters will come to you. The goblins attacked the man as soon as he realized it.
However, the man immediately took out the longsword he had set aside and brushed aside the goblins that appeared swiftly. And then start fishing again as if nothing had happened. The man had a difficult personality, but as a soldier, he seemed to have a talent for fighting. That's why he was never fired even if he left the army and went fishing.
As the man continued fishing, a four-legged monster appeared across from the fountain. In terms of ability, it would be a C grade. It's a rather tough opponent, but if you're a guy, you can beat him. The body is huge, and the target is narrowed down to a monster that looks delicious, the fishing rod is raised, and the long sword is held in his hand.
"Is it fish and meat tonight? It will be a big meal..."
Then the bush behind the four-legged monster moved slightly, and suddenly a giant snakehead came out and swallowed the monster. The monsters that appeared were A-class strong foes. In front of a powerful enemy that no man could win over, he immediately decided to flee.
However, even if you run away, you shouldn't start running suddenly. Luckily, everyone else was just eating. In other words, there is no need to worry about attacking immediately. The man slowly fell behind. Slowly and slowly so as not to make a sound and not be noticed by the other party.
Then the snake slowly and slowly approached the fountain in the same way and began to drink the water. If this is the case, you can escape without any problems. While thinking so, the man looked behind the snake. More than half of the snakes are still hiding in the bushes. The bushes behind him shook violently. The vibrations were hard to believe they were snake vibrations.
Finally, the whole snake image appeared. To be precise, it was a snake, but it wasn't just a snake. Feathered like a bird, its body had a ferocious body covered in hair like a giant carnivore.
"Chimeras..."
The man instinctively raised his voice. Chimeras. It is a monster that can be mixed when multiple monsters that are generated from the accumulation of Earth's magical power are generated. All the confirmed individuals so far are only S-class evil beasts or higher.
The man starts running. Too stupid to run and run. Monsters can run and run away, even if they're not interested. However, it didn't matter if this Chimera was the other party.
Chimeras are always hungry compared to normal monsters. A mixture of several monsters requires several times more food than it should. Hence, as soon as the information about the Chimera's appearance came out, the subjugation order was issued. If not subdued, these creatures will disappear from the area where the Chimera lives.
Chimera chases a man who is running away. These giant chimeras, like humans, would not make for a good meal. After all, it's still food. That's why he's being chased.
The man immediately ran through the forest. There was no point in dealing with the Chimera, like running in a zigzag and running away. Even now, the Chimera was chasing the man while knocking down a tree.
The man hated his stupidity for meeting Chimera. The story of the beautiful fountain I heard in town might be information that I saw a chimera around the fountain. He heard the information halfway through, so he paid attention to it.
There are two ways a man can survive. One of them is to find units to conquer Chimera. And the other is finding the big monsters and changing the target of the Chimera. The former is only possible if the Chimera information is properly transmitted and a unit has been formed. So in terms of certainty, it will be the last.
The man desperately looked around and looked for monsters. However, unable to find any monsters just at such a time. No, the man couldn't find it because of the roar of the Chimera, which was still chasing the trees. With this, the other monsters will hear the sound and run away.
Then a sudden gust of wind blew from the Chimera. It was a wind-magic shot from the wings of the small bird that didn't seem to be flying on its back. To protect himself from the magic, the man turned around and used his longsword as a shield. When the wind magic hit the man, the longsword he was using as a shield broke, shattered his armor and exploded.
"Ahhh... uh, uh..."
Luckily the man was still alive. Thanks to the long sword protected by the blade, the man didn't need to be seriously injured. However, there is no doubt that it is serious. The man watched the approaching Chimera while turning his back on the tree without getting up from the spot.
In the horror of the Chimera looming, the man remembers his life. Then he sighed and looked at the Chimera.
"I want to fish a little more..."
The last thing the man thought. It's just a male desire to fish. And the snake head extending from the Chimera opened its big mouth and approached the man, and...
"Nun!!"
Something suddenly appeared to separate the snake from its head and body. The severed head of the snake kept opening and closing its mouth, probably wanting to eat humans while rolling on the ground. The man just stared at the situation.
It was a Beastman who appeared before the man. His face was carved with many wrinkles, and his hair was white. Beastman started fighting the Chimera without saying anything.
