4 Chapter 3 Part 2

It's been two and a half months since I was summoned, I stayed a lot longer than I initially planned to but I've enjoyed my time here.

The very day I arrived in the village there was some action.

- Flashback -

I was woken by Cursed Sage warning me about an incoming hostile presence approaching the village, it was decently strong too.

Just slightly weaker than the Dragon I fought.

I quickly went outside and flew upwards to try and see what's going on with Gravity Manipulation

The sun is just now setting so it couldn't have been more than a few hours since I got here.

I spot a Centipede looking thing fighting against what I can only assume are the warrier Ogres. The group that escorted me in is included in that group.

What exactly is that Cursed Sage?

Answer. According to analysis the subject is a Mutated Evil Centipede. It likely mutated due to consuming a stronger lifeform.

I see, so monsters can mutate just by eating something stronger than them?

I wonder what other sort of unique monsters can be out there then.

Maybe I'll even get to see an overpowered slime.

I observe the fight from above for now, the fight so far is pretty even though it is slightly in the Centipede's favor.

It does have quite a few interesting abilities though it seems like the Ogres are prepared for most of them.

I was able to copy some interesting new skills like Poison Breath.

After some time the Ogres start to get worn out, they have gotten quite a few good hits throughout the battle but not enough to finish it off, they don't have infinite stamina either so they are tiring out.

I decide to step in once it looks like the Centipede is going to kill an ogre, the purple haired one that was part of the group that escorted me in.

I quickly use Blue to teleport in front of the Ogre that was about to be bisected and use a new application of Red I have been practicing to create a repulsive force to send the Centipede flying back.

I quickly follow behind it and easily cut its head off with my sword.

Much easier than dealing with that Dragon.

I leave the corpse there for now and fly back towards the group.

Once I got there the redhead with the ponytail came up to me bowed and said, "Thank you for saving our friend's life benefactor, we are in your debt."

"Ah it's fine, no need to bow, it wasn't any trouble."

The rest of the group followed his lead and thanked me, the purple harried one was especially enthusiastic. 

Now that I am actually observing her man does she have some big tits.

Whoever she ends up with will be quite lucky.

- Present -

After that there was a feast, I let the Ogres have the body of the Centipede as I had no use for it.

The Ogres insisted that I stayed here as long as I wanted after that and I saw no reason to reject, I'm not in a hurry after all.

I did reveal my Daemon heritage after some time though they didn't particularly care, most of them were experienced enough to understand that one's race does not define them.

Another thing that happened was that three Dryads showed up one day to lecture me about damaging the forest with my Hollow Purple when I was fighting the Medium Dragon.

Apparently it's their job to make sure the forest isn't damaged, man do they take their job seriously.

They were quite strong too, the one in the lead was probably about as strong as I am, she even had a name.

Treyni.

Apparently they are some type of elemental.

Other than that I trained my swordsmanship with the Old Ogre.

I've taken to calling him Old Ogre as calling him Old Man would be confusing.

He is an absolute beast when it comes to swordsmanship, better than the Old Man I would say.

While I could beat him in a fight if we were to use all our abilities in pure swordsmanship he would win almost every time at first.

Thankfully Cursed Sage inherited Sage's comprehension boosting ability, combined with the Studious One I was able to improve my technique fairly quickly.

The other Ogres were quite strong as well, they all learnt under the Old Ogre though some of them branched out a bit.

I did end up meeting a pink haired Ogre, she looked the most human out of all the Ogres, apparently she is redheads sister and the daughter of the chief.

One issue was that none of them had names so it was a bit of a pain to refer to some of them, so I just went ahead and called them based on the color of their hair.

Since there were two redheads I called the one without a ponytail Red and the other one Ponytail.

Rather simple ways to refer to them but what can a man do?

I suck at naming after all.

Thankfully me nicknaming them based on their hair didn't count as naming them, I guess you have to intend to name someone for it to actually work.

According to Cursed Sage, while I can name some of them, it will result in some side effects for me as I am not strong enough to casually name beings with their strength.

The purple haired Ogre or as I like to call her Purple has taken to following me around everywhere, she said she wanted to serve me in order to repay me for saving her life.

Apparently she already got permission from the Chief to do as she wishes.

I told her she didn't have to do that but she insisted and I'm not going to say no to a hot chick wanting to be my servant, I mean who would?

It also doesn't hurt to have some subordinates, numbers can be useful after all, I can't do everything myself, especially when I eventually go to other worlds.

I was also able to gain some information, while the Ogres didn't know a whole lot but they knew enough.

They needed to if they wanted to survive after all.

I was able to learn exactly what that massive aura was, apparently some hero sealed a rampaging True Dragon inside the forest. So hopefully I don't need to worry about that.

True Dragons are basically the highest form of existence in this world, they are each immensely powerful forces of nature.

I was also able to learn that monsters can be born from the magicules I constantly radiate, even when I am suppressing most of my Aura I still have a presence that's hard to hold back.

The Ogres don't have to worry about this as they aren't really strong enough for monsters to be born from the magicules they release but that is something that I was concerned about.

While I might not currently be strong enough for super strong monsters to be born from the magicules I release, that might change in the future if I do discover that there are further evolutions.

Who knows though, that's something I'll have to figure out in the future, it might not even be something I need to worry about.

Now the forest itself is called the Great Jura Forest, the territory of the sealed True Dragon Veldora.

There are a few other villages in the forest like the Gozu, basically Minotaurs along with the Mezu, which are also basically Minotaurs except with horse heads.

The forest is filled with tribes like these, hopefully I can meet some of these races sometime.

The forest is basically a buffer zone between multiple countries, it's surrounded by both human countries and monster countries.

Knowing all this information I made a plan for which countries to visit.

I'm generally planning to stay away from the purely human countries, just seems like a hassle to deal with if it's discovered that I'm a Daemon.

Especially the Holy Empire Ruberios.

Those guys are basically the most anti-monster nation around.

I wasn't able to learn a lot about them, just that they have their own knights that protect them and nations affiliated with them.

Best to stay away from that mess.

The best countries to visit would be countries that welcome non-humans like Dwargon, and the countries ruled by Demon Lords.

Though I think it's best to stay away from Demon Lords for now.

Unfortunately even I know that soon enough I'm going to have to end up leaving.

I do want to see the world after all.

____________________________________________________________________

As we leave the village I ponder on everything I've experienced so far.

It's only been three months but I've had a great time in this world so far.

I was able to try many different types of foods, grow my swordsmanship, learn how to use my skills in more creative ways and learn more about the world around me.

I was able to master how to use Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in with Limitless along with the Secret Arts of the Hazy Style, now I can target specific people with it rather than hitting everything.

I learned some new useful Arts as well like Formhide and Magic Bullet. Formhide basically allows me to hide my presence and form in a more effective way. Magic Bullet is basically just a dense ball of aura and magicules that you can fire at your enemy.

I wasn't the only one who grew either.

Ponytail and Redhead also learned quite a bit from me, whether that was through our duels or me sharing some magical knowledge I thought would help them.

I was also able to get Purple to change weapons, I wasn't expecting her to change as I assumed she was set on her path but when I offered to make her a weapon with Material Creation she asked me to make an Ōdachi.

While she wasn't used to it at first she learned quickly..

After some time we reached the village entrance, both Purple and I turned around to say our goodbyes.

Redhead looked towards me bowed and said, "You are welcome back anytime Benefactor, please keep our friend out of trouble."

"No thank you for being wonderful hosts, I learned many new things and got to try many new things as well. I'll be sure to visit again sometime."

Purple said goodbye next, there were some tears but she promised to visit.

Little did I know the next time I returned circumstances would be completely different.
