Currently, I was in the forest alone, and armed only with the power of [System Alchemist] that I had. But it's not a power I can rely on when encountering monsters, that's why I have to be extra careful.
Just in case I didn't get lost, I gave a sign by tying a rope from the vines I found around my way home. Besides that, I also walked sneakily behind the bushes, hoping that no monsters would notice my presence.
Even though I said something bold like "It can't be helped". But after I entered this forest, I didn't expect that it would be so much more terrifying than I thought.
Different from the forest in my world, the forest in this world is a nest for unknown monsters and plants. So, if I make the slightest mistake, my life can be lost.
I better hurry up and find a source of food and go straight home.
Right now I only get a weird bluish-purple fruit, about the same size as a coconut. Besides that I also took some seeds that might also be edible.
Luckily my [Inventory] can interpret the items I get, so I don't have to worry about which items look poisoned.
The only drawback of this [Inventory], I can't interpret the item directly before I take it, so I have to put it in the [Inventory] first if I want to know the explanation of the item, making it a scary gamble if I mishandled it a poisonous fruit. Even though I could make an antidote using my skill, it was still scary.
Already twice I felt my body tingling, and every time I felt something was wrong, I immediately drank the antidote, which is a potion that can remove any bad status, [Vaccine].
Even so, I don't want to do it again. Hence I have lost even more medicinal points and precious mana points.
For that during my exploration, I had to pick some herbs and extract them to become extra medicinal points.
Unfortunately, as for mana points I still couldn't find anything I could extract to turn into mana points, so I had to be more careful about using those points.
"Hmm, what is this?"
As I walked from one bush to another while looking down, my foot stepped on something, and when I checked it. I saw a large tooth that was much bigger than the size of my arm.
It made me curious so I picked it up, and saw what gear exactly it was from the [Inventory] I had. When I pressed the item, a panel appeared explaining about the gear.
[Teeth of the Dragon of Destruction "Ragnarok"]
"Ooh!"
Seeing that I was amazed.
It's my first time seeing dragon teeth, it's really cool. I didn't expect it to be this big. Exactly how big were real dragons in this world?
"Let's just keep this," I said, and immediately put the giant tooth into the [Inventory].
After locking the dragon tooth item so I wouldn't accidentally throw it away, I continued on my way to find food.
Until finally, the sun began to set, so I decided to just come here to look for food supplies.
"I guess this is enough, I got quite a bit more than I thought," I muttered with a satisfied smile.
Then, as I was getting ready to head back, there was suddenly a loud roar from the depths of the forest.
"ROOOAAAARRRGGGGHHHHH—!!!"
"—?!"
It made me flinch in surprise, and I subconsciously held my breath.
"What's a monster? I'd better get out of here soon."
I don't know where the voice came from or what kind of monster it is. But, I'm sure it's something bad, so I better hurry home and leave this place as soon as possible.
I drank the stamina boosting [Buff Potion] I made, and walked back sneakily towards the cave where we were hiding earlier.
This place is downright scary.
***************
Luckily, I made it back safely without encountering any monsters.
"I am home!" I said as soon as I entered the cave and I immediately walked to the place where I had left the goddess before.
"Hey~ Kami-sama, I brought some food that might be edible. So let's have dinner using these suspicious fruits and seeds together, I'm really hungry" I called out.
However, when I got inside
I didn't find the goddess at all where she had left before.
"... Kami... -sama?"
