A verdant forest, on a grassland. A young goblin is fighting a tiger.

The tiger stared at the young goblin in front of him with a fierce look, its black and white fur like fried hair. It bared its smug fangs, claws that could easily grasp flesh apart.

Roar――――

The tiger let out a dangerous roar at the goblin that was looking at him with a determined face, as if it was about to rush over and tear it apart in the next second.

The next moment, the tiger suddenly rushed in the direction of the goblin, and the pair of tiger claws that could easily slap the prey unconscious had already revealed its claws at this time, and quickly and fatally attacked the goblin's body.

"Tsk!"

I used the rusty sword in my hand to block the tiger's dangerous claws, and the sharp claws scraped against the sword. Although the claws were sharp, they did not scratch the sword.

After flicking the tiger's sharp claws away, I quickly slashed at the tiger's abdomen with the rusty sword in my hand. The blade of the sword instantly cut a hole in the tiger's abdomen, and the blood flowed down.

Roar!!!

Suddenly traumatized, the tiger jumped backwards decisively, and it let out an angry roar from its mouth, and its eyes turned bloodshot.

Just as the two of us were confronting, the tiger's body suddenly changed.

Its body grew larger and muscular, and its black and white hair was dyed a slightly golden red. The sharp teeth in the large mouth of the blood basin are extremely sharp, and it seems that the bones of the prey can be easily crushed. The claws on the limbs had become particularly terrifying, and those claws were sharp enough to tear apart the flesh of the golden-clawed bear.

Seeing this scene, my face became serious, and I stretched out my left hand to the tiger and aimed my palm at it, which was still changing its body, and in my palm a cloud of light blue elemental magic continued to gather in my hand.

"It's over...... Frozen!!"

The light blue light flashed dazzlingly beside the tiger in an instant, and the next second, the light blue crystal clear ice quickly spread to the tiger's body.

The cold and biting ice froze the tiger's body tightly, and at this time it couldn't move, only the head that was not frozen by the ice was still panting heavily.

I walked in the direction of the tiger with the rusty sword in my hand, and I slowly raised the rusty sword as I looked at the unwilling and angry tiger.

Roar!!!!

With the tiger's angry roar, I decisively slashed its head with my sword. The blade slashed into its flesh and cut off its bones, and in an instant the tiger's head was easily cut off by me.

It's over......

I shook the blood off the rusty sword and retracted it into its scabbard.

"Bang Bang!"

A short burst of applause came from behind me, and when I heard this applause, I subconsciously turned my head and put my right hand on the hilt of my sword in a fighting posture.

"Elder Black Frame, why are you ......" I was suddenly a little surprised when I saw who was coming.

"The battle just now was good, Tut didn't expect you to have mastered ice magic......" Looking at me with a wary face, the black frame said with a playful smile.

Before we could speak again, a dozen tigers in the distance surrounded us from the far side of the grassland that looked like the tigers I had slain. They were staring at us with a fierce look on their faces.

"Oh, Tut, you shouldn't have killed one of them before, did you?"

"Yes. ”

I nodded, intending to draw my rusty sword and slay the tigers that had surrounded us one by one.

"Trouble... The Blood Golden Tiger is a monster that is very partner-oriented, and you kill one of them. They're probably going to tear you apart right now. ”

Hearing my answer, Hei Frame calmly explained to me why we are now surrounded by this group of tigers.

"But it's nothing, Tut will show you my magic. ”

As he spoke, the black-framed elder slowly stretched out his right hand, and a cloud of light blue light quietly appeared in his hand.

"The Ice Storm!"

In an instant, the icy snowflakes accompanied by the fierce wind formed a tornado-like storm. Looking at the sudden ice and snow storm, the Blood Golden Tigers who surrounded us not far away did not dare to step forward.

They looked at the oppressive old goblin in front of them with a look of fear, knowing full well that if they rushed forward desperately, they would be doomed to death.

"Let's go, Tut. ”

The black frame grabbed my arm firmly, controlling the flying storm of ice and snow to slowly float us into the air.

Eh, I... Flying?!

As I floated in the air, I looked at the scenery on the ground, and I was surprised and a little excited. Fly...... You must know that in my previous life, I would never have been able to fly into the sky like this.

(Of course, you can fly up by means of transportation.) ）

"Surprised, Tut? Looking at me with a face that was both surprised and excited, the black frame asked with a calm expression.

"Well, Elder, I didn't expect to finally fly into the sky......" I said happily with the joy in my heart.

Before I could say more, the black frame angrily snapped his fingers at my forehead with his left hand.

"Don't get carried away, boy. Now you're floating in mid-air with the magic I use, and you can't do that now. "The black frame reminded me that I really can't do this at the moment.

"Elder, aren't we going to kill them?" I asked, pointing to the Blood Golden Tigers on the ground who hadn't left yet.

"There's no need to do that kind of superfluous thing. The animals and monsters that live in this verdant forest, we don't need to kill them senselessly. ”

The black frame told me with a serious face that I should try to avoid unnecessary killings in this verdant forest.

"Now we're going back to Kejie, Flying technique. "After the black frame chanted a spell, my body seemed to be moved by the wind elemental magic.

In the next second, the black-framed elder grabbed my arm and flew in the direction of Kejie City......

――――

Elder Blackframe has been teaching me high-level magic for months, and during that time I've mastered the medium- and heavy-level magic that Elder Blackframe has taught me.

As for the magic book in my hand, the black-framed elder simply gave it to me. And he told me to read the book when I had time.

But what I didn't expect was that the time to learn magic passed so quickly. When I was taught and studied by the Black Frame Elders, just a few months passed so quickly.

After learning medium and high-level magic, I went alone to challenge one of the dangerous creatures of the verdant forest.

So, there is the previous situation......

――――

While I was still thinking, Elder Black Frame and I had already flown to the walls of Kejie City.

When the guards on the city wall saw the black-framed elder, they greeted him with respect.

"Here we are, Tut. I said as I looked at me in a daze.

"Hmm. I nodded to Elder Blackframe to indicate that I already understood.

"Come with me, there's something to attend to today. Come with me to find out about it. Black Frame said to me as he walked down the wall.

"Okay, I see. I replied as I quickly followed the footsteps of the black-framed elder.

Elder Blackframe and I were walking down the streets of Kejie City as we walked to a strange place.

The buildings in this area are completely different from the previous houses, some of which are made of steel and stone, and some of which are made of unknown crystals and metals.

But the destination of our trip was the huge hall in front of us, this hall... How to describe it? It is made of solid stone and unknown metal and crystal.

If I had to compare this hall with the palace of the patriarch in the inner city of Kete, I felt that this hall was not inferior to the palace in the inner city in any way.

Is that...... Magical enchantment?

At a glance, I saw a series of magical runes carved into the main entrance and walls of the main hall, and these magical enchantments were probably used to defend against enemies, right?

"That's amazing......" I sighed involuntarily.

"I said Tut, you don't need to be so surprised, you can still come here when you have the chance. ”

When he heard my exclamation, the black frame looked back at me with a smile and said.

"I see. "I said yes to the black frame and adjusted my gaffe.

When I walked to the main entrance of this hall with Elder Black Frame, we stopped together. ”

"It's ......"

The black frame took out a spar token from his clothes and aimed it at the main entrance of the main hall, and the main entrance of the main hall slowly opened in the next second.

"Welcome to the Temple of Shamans. The black frame said to me steadily.

Here it is...... The Temple of Shamans?!
