[Congratulations, you have received 'Legendary Flying Sword'!]
[Flying Sword: Floating gracefully, the sword displays a vibrant aura. The Flying Sword is capable of sailing through the air beneath the user's feet, how high and how fast the blade can fly depends solely on the user.]
As soon as he woke up, Su Login planned to collect the Daily Prize before going out to kill Magical Beasts.
He wanted to test his skills after killing the Wooden Beak Swallow and learn about the history of cultivation, but he forgot his goals for a moment when he received that peculiar item, the first Legendary Daily Prize he had received after arriving in that world.
A sword that served as a means of transportation caught his eye, and the thought of consuming it didn't even cross his mind.
The young man took the item out of his Inventory and held it in his hand. It was big and wide, he could calmly climb onto it and there would be room for his feet.
At that size, it would be very slow in combat, but from the System's description, it wasn't fit for that purpose, its job was to transport him through the air.
But how did it work?
As soon as he faced the blade, a message from the System appeared:
[Do you wish to learn 'Legendary Flying Sword'?]
Yes.
The process of learning the Flying Sword was similar to that of the Stabilizing Roots spell, his head was flooded with questions about the natural order of things, trivial things becoming the topic of complex statements.
He felt that he would only learn the Flying Sword if he understood how the wind that touched his blade and the metal that formed the sword in his hands worked.
However, his questions were soon answered by the System, and he could feel the knowledge of the Flying Sword entering his mind. Thus, he learned that skill.
[You have learned 'Legendary Flying Sword'.]
[You have received 15 XP.]
Staring at the blade again, Su Login knew exactly what to do.
The young man threw the sword forward, and it stopped in mid-air. He knew there could be no doubt in his heart when he mounted it, otherwise it would fall from the sky like a bird from its nest.
Su Login was still high up in the tree he used as a base, but he wasn't afraid of the height and stepped firmly on the body of the sword. One foot after the other.
The next thing he knew, he was on top of the Flying Sword, floating through the air. The sword advanced as he wished to advance.
He started flying slowly, but soon got used to it. Su Login could learn the essence of things very quickly, he had developed a logical reasoning unmatched in his past life.
It's probably because I'm in the body of a young man, but I feel a bit excited about riding a sword. But that's enough for now, now I have to focus on getting stronger.
Su Login landed and put his sword away in his Inventory. He had moved away from the tree he was using as a base and was in a place that could become a target for Magical Beasts if he let his guard down.
It wasn't long before he heard the rustling of a bush.
Vosh!
A Wooden Horn flew towards him, but he was already ready to dodge it.
As soon as he moved his body, he materialized the Wooden Beak in his fingers and shot it towards the creature in the bushes.
[You killed 'Wooden Horned Squirrel'.]
[You received 'Wooden Horn'.]
[You received 10 XP.]
Even though he had killed the creature in the bushes, he kept his guard up because he heard another noise nearby.
Another squirrel appeared, this one didn't attack directly from the bushes, it was arrogant and appeared in front of its prey.
Su Login concentrated and used his Stabilizing Roots spell.
The young man felt the earth at his feet become more stable, as if his feet were really rooted in the earth, he had the impression that nothing could move him from there.
The Wooden Horned Squirrel shot towards Su Login, but the young man only bent his knees and threw the weight of his body backwards, that movement required a lot of strength in his feet.
Vosh!
As the Wooden Horn flew past him, Su Login returned to his starting position and motioned with his right hand. At the same moment, his Flying Sword materialized and moved towards the squirrel, cutting it in half.
[You killed a 'Wooden Horned Squirrel'.]
[You received 'Wooden Horn'.]
[You received 10 XP.]
He was pleased to see that he had managed to eliminate the creature without moving its lower body.
He sighed and touched his back, this was a young body, he didn't need to worry about pain from a sudden movement like that, which made an arc with his back.
When he realized that there were no more enemies nearby, Su Login began to walk, always alert so as not to be surprised and killed with a Wooden Horn stuck in his head.
He could use his Flying Sword to kill, but it was ineffective on creatures as small as squirrels.
He walked for another five minutes before encountering more Magical Beasts.
They were two Wooden Horned Squirrels, just like last time, but Su Login had evolved and knew how to deal with their double attack.
The creatures were clever, they always stood on opposite sides to kill their prey with a simultaneous attack, weaker creatures would not be able to protect themselves from shots coming from both sides.
Su Login materialized the Flying Sword in his hand and made it fly a little, his body rose and the Wooden Horns collided with each other where the young man should have been.
He was holding the sword by the hilt, so he turned and jumped, then mounted the Flying Sword.
Without much effort, the young man attacked simultaneously with two Wooden Horns, each of which went towards one of the squirrels and killed them quickly, those Magical Beasts had no concept of defense.
[You killed a 'Wooden Horned Squirrel'].
[You received 'Wooden Horn'].
[You received 10 XP.]
[You killed a 'Wooden Horned Squirrel'].
[You received 'Wooden Horn'].
[You received 10 XP.]
It became very easy to kill the Wooden Horned Squirrels after understanding their behavior, and using the Flying Sword as an aid only made it easier to exterminate them.
I need to go deeper into the forest if I want to get more XP. If it's like in my old world, the strength of the Magical Beasts will only increase based on how deep I go into the forest.
He decided that he would retreat a little when the Magical Beasts became stronger, prudence was an important quality in warriors who wanted to evolve. It would be foolish to advance only to die.
After resting for a while, Su Login flew on his sword into a deeper part of the forest, he kept flying low because he didn't know what kind of Magical Beasts there were in the sky apart from swallows.
As he looked to the side, he realized that he could see the lake more clearly, perhaps that lake extended to the end of the forest, because he could no longer see its shores from there.
Su Login approached the lake because he felt thirsty, he needed to get a water container soon, because he didn't know how far the lake would accompany him on his journey through the forest.
As he bent down to take a drink of water, the young man heard the sound of footsteps nearby and immediately went on guard, but he kept his Flying Sword in his Inventory.
His hearing was good, he could discern that what was approaching was a human, if it was just someone passing by, he didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble.
"I knew I had seen someone coming this way, but I didn't imagine it would be a junior brother from the south."
Su Login didn't answer anything and just stared at the person who had spoken to him. It was a young man older than him, at least physically, with long silver hair and a handsome face.
"I'm Dai Yuzui from the East Hall," the slender young man introduced himself. Dai Yuziu straightened his hair, which was tied back in a ponytail with a blue bow; he looked like a vain fellow.
"I'm Su Lo-Login..."
Su Login's voice came out a little scratchy, this was the first time he had opened his mouth to communicate since waking up in that body, he had forgotten to practice speaking to avoid an embarrassment like that.
Despite having failed a little in his presentation, Dai Yuzui didn't mind and looked at him with a little disdain in his eyes, as if it was expected that someone like Su Login wouldn't be able to present himself to him.
"This is a dangerous part of the forest for a junior brother, what are you doing here?"
Su Login remained silent, he didn't understand what Dai Yuzui's intentions were, but he would be ready to fight at any moment.
"Sorry to seem nosy, but I was assigned by the Elders to check the forest before the Peach Tree Trial, there are many perverts who usually hide in the forest to harass the junior sisters."
"Junior brother Su Login, you're not a pervert, are you?"
