Chapter 11

Chapter 11: At the Lake 2

We have arrived!

I rode on Ell for around 30 minutes, and then walked for an hour.

This can be my everyday exercise, and it will be nice if I can grow taller.



I wonder what is today’s game. I’m looking forward to it.

The lake is around the size of Tokyo Dome.

That was a lie. Honestly, I don’t even know how big it is. In any case, it is big.

I invoked Detection. Hmm, I wonder if there is any.

Nearby there is a horn rabbit and- what is this?

It feels like there are around 5 monsters gathering in one place.

「Ell, doesn’t it seem like there are too many monsters over there?」

The area I pointed at was inside the forest, around the place I encountered the Rock Boar.

「Yeah, there certainly is a lot. Those are Fire Ants.」

「You can see them Ell?」

「Rather than see them, is it more correct to say I know those are Fire Ants.  I don’t really understand it. I can know what is there by their Mana.」

「Hm~. That somehow sounds awesome.」

「I want to be able to do that too.」

I do know where they are with Detection though.

Hmm, I wonder if it’s too much to ask for it to be a little clearer, like a map.

「I’m not sure how to get there, but I’ll give it a shot.」

「Ok」

I close my eyes to create an image. I felt an uneasy sensation as I tried gathering my magic power allowing it to manifest in a thin film . Since monsters and other living beings also possess magic, I tried picturing water droplets falling onto the water’s surface, creating a ripple.

Using magic, I marked it with a dot….

……

Mu mu mu mu。

Woah!

Inside my head, something like a forest’s map can be seen, with a seemingly countless number of dots.

It might be difficult, given this scenario…

At that moment, a pirorin sound popped into my head.

Yeah, it looks like I learned a skill. Skill obtained. Looks like it’s a s.p.a.ce-time magic variety.

On the map, the plants are marked as green dots, monsters as red dots, and we are marked as white dots.

Because I wanted to remove any indication of plants… disappear- disappear- disappear-. I did it.

With that, I was able to locate the position of the fire ants after some time…

There’s not only 5 fire ants huh. There’s 3 more coming from behind.

「Ell, try defeating those fire arts. 」

Compared to the horn rabbits, fire ants are intermediate rank monsters. Martha mentioned that even though they aren’t as powerful as the horn bear, they are still pretty dangerous creatures.

「Understood. Fire ants are weak against water. Use water magic to defeat them.」

「Ok, I understand」

「Be careful」

「Okay」

Defeating a monster for the first time is making me nervous.

I slowly approached the fire ants, making sure not to make any noise, so they won’t notice me.

Pirorin

This time I learned the skill.

Then, I attacked the nearby fire ants from the bushes close by.

[Aqua Lance]

Using magic to compress the water to it’s limit, I threw multiple water spears at the fire ants.

Uh-oh. One got out.

[Giggigigi]

Surprised by the sudden ambush, the fire ant saw its allies being taken out.  I looked around. While hiding in the bushes, I can clearly see the fire ant. The fire ant’s giant fangs straightened out as it stood on alert.

It just looks like a big, red ant.

For the last enemy, I shot an aqua lance aimed at the neck, putting an end to its life.

The fire ants were flocking on a fallen dog’s body covered in mud and blood.
