Chapter 200 Goblin
The stream is some distance from the rocky mountain where Yaro is located, so the fastest way to get there is naturally by using a flight spell.

But Aro could not possibly waste the precious magic left by his mother on such a matter.

If it were solely driven by one's own magic, it would be impossible to maintain the flight spell for so long.

Moreover, using an apprentice's magic to drive a full-fledged wizard's spells is too far-fetched; in case of any unexpected situation, it would be impossible to dodge quickly.

If there are harpies in this place, who knows what other strange things might be lurking in that lush jungle?

Yaro had no choice but to go through the woods.

When traveling through the jungle, the biggest fear is getting lost.

and so.

The first thing Yarrow had to do was to write down several prominent landmarks along the way.

Some very conspicuous landmarks, but with slight deviations in the route, can be added as appropriate to ensure the correct direction.

Design a simple nickname for each landmark and then memorize it repeatedly.

After completing the preparations, Yaro secured the cross-shaped sword to his back and climbed down the mountain.

……

Below the primeval forest, bushes grow thickly, and it's unknown whether the remaining area conceals deep pits.

Interspersed among them are several winding, slippery, and narrow animal trails that lead to who-knows-where. If one were to take the easy way out and actually walk on them, one would stray from the original direction after just a few steps.

But once you climb up the tree, the densely growing trunks that compete for sunlight become the best 'highway' in the forest.

However, most tree trunks that are thick enough will be covered with small branches.

This prevents Yaro from running on tree branches like in some anime.

They can only swing their bodies back and forth like apes, hanging upside down.

Locate the nearest landmark along the way, and Yaro runs on the ground and swings from tree to tree.

Thanks to his childhood experience of climbing trees, the complicated and tedious road conditions did not hinder Yarrow's rapid progress.

With winter approaching, the animals are making their final preparations to store food for the winter.

The rapid movement prevented the threatening aura surrounding Yaro from dissipating.

Every now and then you'll encounter rabbits, elk, and wild boars darting out from the grass and bushes, and you might even catch a glimpse of an adult leopard.

Seeing Yaro leaping over on the vines, a hint of joy flashed in the leopard's cold, vertical pupils.

what's going on?
Delivery?

The leopard instinctively opened its massive jaws and swung its claws sideways.

Faced with this situation, Yaro naturally wouldn't let the opportunity slip by.

He was in dire need of money, and the leopard's pelt might fetch a good price.

"Sun Fist!"

In terms of reaction speed, an adult leopard might be about the same as Yaro.

But how could it have imagined that Yaro would be so despicable!

The moment they met, they immediately unleashed a flashbang!
The leopard, surrounded by a white expanse, let out a terrifying roar, hoping to frighten its enemies with the sound, while simultaneously swinging its claws suddenly according to its memory of the location.

The experienced Yaro had already quietly lowered his head the moment he unleashed the Solar Fist.

He dodged the swung claws and thrust his sword in with the momentum.

bass!
The sword trembled slightly, and Yaro swung it away, leaving only the leopard, frozen in place, struggling desperately.

The sharp claws slashed and swept wildly, sending tree bark flying.

Blood gushed out, staining the leopard's spotted fur.

Yaro stayed at a distance and dared not approach.

The leopard's reaction speed far surpasses that of ordinary people, and its strength is not much less than that of a knight. Yaro does not want to suffer its dying counterattack.

As it struggled, the longsword piercing its neck gradually loosened.

Bang!

As the longsword fell heavily to the ground, the leopard collapsed and remained motionless.

……

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, and the Fiery Sword Technique has gained 223 skill experience points]

[Converted to personal experience, personal experience points increased by 223] [Remaining skill points: 1]

[Personal Level LV21: 548/30000]

……

The more than two hundred experience points proved its power and also showed that Yaro's judgment was correct.

After hearing the notification sound indicating the experience points, Yaro approached and picked up the cross-shaped longsword from the ground.

This leopard is nearly two meters long, making it a giant leopard. In addition, its width just exceeds the limit of the remaining space in the spatial ring.

Yaro had to do it himself, cutting open the leopard's belly and removing all its internal organs. He then found that he couldn't close it completely, so he had to remove some of the flesh and bones.

As Yaro was processing the food, the surrounding vegetation rustled, perhaps because other carnivores had smelled the delicious aroma.

Yaro was not afraid at all.

He figured it out: since he couldn't find any money, why not scavenge some prey in the woods and exchange it for money?

However, the longer Yaro stayed there, the stronger his aura became, and the surrounding noises gradually faded away. The other beasts he had hoped for were nowhere to be found.

On the contrary, some dumbfounded deer poked their heads out from the bushes nearby, staring blankly at Yaro as he busied himself.

After watching for a long time, it was discovered that Yaro did not make any extreme moves. Some of the young deer even continued to approach, as if they were spying on the lush green grass behind Yaro.

Feeling scrutinized by strange eyes, Yaro could only helplessly raise his head: "Are you all close relatives of the silly roe deer?"

The leopard had been dealt with, but Yaro didn't want to activate the spatial ring under the watchful eyes of others.

Who knows, are these elk eyes controlled by some wizard?

“Go, go, go!”

Yaro suddenly stood up, wildly waving his blood-stained sword to drive away the strange deer.

Although he wanted to hunt, he didn't want to waste the precious space in his spatial ring on these deer.

Only the pelts of strong bears, leopards, and tigers are worth buying and can be exchanged for enough money.

Startled by the smell of blood, the deer hurriedly darted into the jungle.

Yaro then turned around and put the prepared leopard into his ring.

Just as Yaro used the 'Water-Fetching Spell' to wash the bloodstains from his hands, a commotion suddenly arose again from the direction the deer had fled.

"Seriously? Are you that fearless?"

Yaro was speechless, but too lazy to care. After washing his arms, he turned to leave.

"Warrior...please wait a moment."

A soft, melodious voice came urgently.

Are there other people?

A slight thought crossed Yaro's mind.

Don't leave immediately. Talk to them first and find out what's going on around you.

If the person is a superhuman, you can ask them if they have any purification potions or similar items.

Moreover... we must also stop the visitors and prevent them from seeing that the leopard's skin has mysteriously disappeared.

Thinking this, Yaro turned and walked toward the direction from which the sound came.

"Who are you? What do you want with me?"

While deliberately trying to find a topic to talk about, Yaro adjusted his direction and moved closer to the bushes, using the leopard's remains as a shield behind him.

A beautiful girl emerged from the bushes ahead, panting, as a pristine white arm pushed aside the bushes.

She had beautiful algae-green hair, and her clear eyes were two sizes larger than average, but they didn't look out of place; instead, they made the girl even more adorable.

A few large, dark green leaves were tied around her waist; this was her dress and skirt.

She wasn't wearing shoes, but even as she ran, her fair and delicate feet remained clean.

Such a simple outfit did not affect her temperament; on the contrary, it made her look even more adorable and innocent.

It's as if this is how she's supposed to dress.

However, Yaro noticed a hint of eerie green in those crystal-clear eyes, and the traces of withered wood on the girl's fingertips.

Is this... a fairy?
