Looking ahead to me, it's a forest. Staring aside and behind me, it's also a forest.
I nodded with satisfaction... That's what I do, but, it's not! This is not what I want!
Hello FBI, police, I want to report!
Sighing I gave up lowering my hands staring at the beautiful scenery of the forest and the acreage with a complicated look.
" Ha~ I do want to live in another world like the protagonist in the novel, but if it's suddenly moved without any preparation, it makes me complicated and panicked. " I said, sighing, thinking about all the sudden things that happened to him.
After a few moments of calm, I returned to my original state and prepared to think of a plan that I needed to take to ensure my survival in this middle of nowhere.
" The first thing I have to look for is water. Then food, shelter, then weapons before other secondary needs. " I said, rubbing my chin, thinking of the right plan I had to take.
" On the other hand I can't ignore the threats and dangers that must be there in the woods, like beasts or monsters. After all this is another world and things that can't possibly exist on Earth could be in this world. " I said seriously to think of the danger that wild beasts and monsters will pose in this forest.
I keep thinking even though I have a body that has human peak power, it doesn't mean I'm going to be able to survive in this forest smoothly that might contain monsters like goblins, cobblers, and many others.
" I need a gun. " I said, look both my hands and turn to the Status Panel.
My Martial Arts skills are strong, but if faced with a creature that has a skin as hard as steel, the bare hands won't be enough. Therefore I am currently staring at [Exchange Equivalent] with some plans.
In addition to having exceptional capabilities, [Exchange Equivalent] also has a Sub-skill of [Inventory].
[Inventory] has the ability to store things with almost unlimited space and static time in them, which practically provides great support for me who needs to pick up a lot of stuff without having to worry about.
[Inventory] is also the place to use [Exchange Equivalent], where goods to exchange and goods to exchange are stored.
For now I don't have anything to trade for, so my main focus right now is to get it first, so it can be exchanged into a weapon that will make it easier for me to fight, hunt, and survive in these woods.
With a plan in my head. I walked up to one of those ancient trees and put my hand on the trunk of the tree.
" Hardly, the wood of this tree should be of excellent quality. And on the other hand, since this tree is literally from another world, it shouldn't be a simple tree either. " I said, knock on that tree and think about how incredible the quality of the wood is.
So with one thought, I wanted that tree to go into the [Inventory] and the next thing that happened caught my eye and lost my balance a little bit.
The ancient tree that I just touched suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a large hole, it looked like it disappeared along with its roots.
I quickly calmed down and looked at the previously empty [Inventory] tab. Now one box has been filled with a picture of a tree with all the glittering effects around it.
" It really worked. " I said, staring blankly at the [Inventory] tab, I honestly did it purely out of curiosity and experimentation. But who would have thought it would work and be possible to do it? I mean it literally uprooted a giant tree tens to hundreds of meters tall, with a trunk diameter tens of meters, and its roots without any left.
" It's just incredible! " I said, sighing, at what I faced as soon as I was thrown into this world.
Out of curiosity I then pressed the ancient tree.
[Name: Ancient Tree of Natura]
[Type: Magic Tree]
[ Description: A magical tree that has the blessing of the World Tree itself that makes it possess many remarkable skills. Like, being able to produce magic energy independently, the sap can heal many things, the fruit can prolong its life, and the wood is highly conductive to magic energy and can be used as a magic wand or other magic equipment very effectively. ]
" Looks like I hit the jackpot! " I said, grinning reading the description of the ancient tree. My excitement also increased after seeing the sea of Ancient Trees as far as the eye could see.
I know being blinded by greed is a bad thing, but on the other hand, after thinking about how many things and other extraordinary things I can trade through [Exchange Equivalent]
" It shouldn't be a problem, right? No matter how many trees there are in this forest, and it should be if I just took tens or hundreds of trees, because from the book I read, it's not good for trees to grow close together because they're going to fight over food sources. " I said nod your head with a wise expression. Because this needs to be done so that trees can thrive without conflict. The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that what I'm doing is right.
Humming me took a walk around the Ancient Tree and took some of it at a considerable distance from one tree to another.
" This should be enough. " I said, looking at the contents of the [Inventory] tab containing the rows of Ancient Trees.
" All right, next to the most important thing. " I said seriously staring at the exchange tab in [Exchange Equivalent]
I had only thought of getting a decent weapon and could help me survive in this forest. But now, since I've had a lot of valuable trade items, I'm thinking about getting a place to live, decent clothes, high-nutritive food, good-natured food, and information, knowledge, books and maybe a special serum or a pill or an experience of a skill maybe? Well, who knows?
[Exchange Tab]
[Exchangeable Goods: Ancient Tree of Natura×1]
[ Things to Exchange: Two - Floor Portable Houses, Wood - Based, and have Stress Relief, Self - Concealment, and Automatic Self - Cleaning. ]

[ Exchange Successful! ]

I immediately opened the [Inventory] tab and found a column containing a miniature of a two - story house.
" It did work. " I said stare in amazement at the two-story miniature house in [Inventory]
" Then it's time for the most important thing, weapons. " I said seriously while staring back at the tab [Exchange]
It would actually be better if I switched it into a firearm or a gun, but on the other hand I don't know if it works or not. Unless, if the gun is endowed with charm, enhancement, or magic.
And as a fighter I didn't really like using firearms and choosing traditional weapons like, katana, knives, spears, bows, daggers and more.
" Well, only a child has to choose, me as an adult will choose everything. " I said, nod with a wise expression.
[Exchange Tab]
[Exchangeable Goods: Ancient Tree of Natura×2]
A gun enhanced by magic with an energy-based magic bullet. And many traditional weapons are enhanced by magic. ]

" Good, then this way I don't worry too much about meeting a beast or a monster. " I said I nodded my head satisfactorily as I looked at the [Inventory] tab filled with many weapons.
I curiously pressed them one by one and displayed a description of them.
And without surprise the increase in weapons is identical to each other. Such as, can repair and self-cleaning automatically if crushed, cracked or dirty; improvements in sharpness, piercing power, and penetration; and the ability to accurately hit the target.
I nodded satisfactorily after reading the description of each of the weapons.
Putting my hand in my [inventory] took one of the many weapons in it.
It's a katana with the sharpest blade I've ever seen, just looking at it makes me understand that it's not just a weapon, especially if it's also conductive to enormous magical energy.
" Well then, let's start the adventure! " I said, grin and walk further into the woods.
