The town where Kyle currently lives is called Weyridge. Although it is a small town, it is known for one feature: the deadly forest that lies at its border—the Weyridge Forest, with beasts of all kinds lurking around. The ranking of beasts ranges from F Rank to S Rank.
The reason why there are so many beasts is that this place is regarded as a slum. There are no competent adventurers or warriors to deal with them. Simply put, the kingdom doesn't care about commoners, especially those who live in a place like this, coupled with the fact that it is located at the border of our Kingdom and the Kingdom of Veilstead. Although there isn't much tension between the two kingdoms, the forest is left untouched between them.
The day was yet to break, and Kyle was already up. After finishing the chores around the house and completing today's daily tasks, he decided to head to the forest. He had already talked to Aunt Jane the night before. She was skeptical at first, but Kyle had promised her he wouldn't go in too deep. Ever since awakening the system, Kyle had finally had hope, something he hadn't felt in a long time. He wouldn't be stupid enough to die at this point when he finally had hope—hope that he could actually make a name for himself.
As he finished gathering his supplies, he was finally ready. He had packed everything from food to clothes to a tent he could sleep in and some other things he would need in the forest, as he might be staying there for quite a while. The first thing he had to do was get a map of the forest, as Jyle made his way to the market place he didn't know exactly where to go so he decided to ask around for directions as he looked around he spotted a middle aged lady who seemed to be selling some fruits he walked up to her"uhmmm.....excuse me ma'm I'm looking to buy a map of the Weyridge forest but I don't know, where I can get that. Would you be kind enough to point me in the direction of a store where I can get that," the lady took a look at him and then said, I could do that but I hope you ar my planning to head into that forest it's way too dangerous for a boy of your age, Kyle smiled at her, she looked at him one more time and sighed. If you walk straight down this road there's a little aisle on the left side with some small shops, the first one to your right, trust me you can't miss it. Thanks Ma'm Kyle said with a huge smile on his face as he kept started walking forward towards the direction given to him by the lady.
As Kyle turned the corner into the aisle the first thing that came to his mind was shady, it looked like a place where illegal things where sold. He walked towards the first store on his right and he could see the stall was dusty and filled with a lot of different things as he walked inside he couldn't see any one in the store. As he walked in he decided to call, "hello is any one here, " as he said that an old man walked out of the back with a towel around his neck, "ahh whose shouting so much so early in the day, what do you want kid", I'm looking for a map of the Weyridge forest, I'd like if it was as detailed as possible sir, ehh just check on the shelves there and you'll see if there's a map you'll like. Kyle was a little bit pissed of at the man's attitude towards him but decided not to make a scene here, he walked over to the dusty shelf that was lined with scrolls picking through them and looking through them to find the map of the forest as he picked up one of the scrolls and looked at it he got a notification from the system
{A light spell has been discovered,}
{Light Swords}
{Allows the user to shape and mold light into swords of light. The number of swords produced is dependent on the users current magic capacity (max=5)} Holy shit a light spell in this crappy store.
{Would the host like to learn this spell}
Although Kyle was eager to learn it
As Kyle began his journey to the forest, the morning sun had begun to shine vehemently, casting a golden glow over the trees ahead. As he neared the entrance to the forest, he could see five people heading into the forest in front of him. The party consisted of two men and two women, each of them distinct in their appearance and demeanor. As he kept walking, one of the ladies in the group turned back to look at him and then just kept walking forward. Kyle didn't let that go to his mind and just kept walking forward blankly. After walking for a while with the guidance of the map he got to a safe spot and put all of his belongings into the mana space, while he was in there he decided to learn the spell he had just acquired. Light swords, as he looked at the notification given to him by the system. {Would you like to learn the spell Light Swords}.
"Yes" As Kyle said that the information concerning the spell passed through his mind at an incredible rate giving him insight on it. After that was over Kyle opened his eyes he focused on manipulating the mana around him, creating a visible image of a sword in his mind and projecting that in the world as he did that he could see the sword form, he tried forming more swords as he formed the fifth sword he could feel his mana dwindling he rued moving the swords around it was as though they were an extension of his mind doing what ever he willed after a two minutes the swords disappeared leaving Kyle panting on the floor.
