Nice to meet you, Cecilia

<WHITLOCK POV>

(IN A UNKNOWN FOREST)

As I continue to walk around the forest I realize that the sun was already setting down, So I set up camp and lay down inside of a hollow log as I was lying down I thought about My magic if I remember correctly

There are 3 stages of magic the first one is the major elements which consist of Fire, Water, Wind, And Nature, And the second stage is called secondal, The second stage of Fire is Lava, Water is Ice, Wind is clouds, And Nature is earth, And finally the last stage of elements is called,

The trio, Only a few can unlock this stage and it combines two secondal elements Lava and Cloud becomes Ashes, Cloud and Earth turns in to sand, Earth mixed with ice become Mud

Lava and Ice was still unknown but to some people believed it was obsidian,

I eventually fell asleep as I woke up and continued to walk, I wanted to live here for a while so I can get materials as practicing my magic but getting to my family was my number one priority while walking I manage to defeat a single wolf which I realized was kind of weird usually wolfs travel in packs but it was all alone

"Maybe I got lost from its family like me," I said after sighing and skinning the animal for clothes and the meat for me, As I continued to walk I started to see different animals like a rabbit and some deers

I kept on practicing my fire magic but while using fire the spiral on my shoulder started to glow and eventually, some runes appeared on the side, But the worse thing is I can't activate water magic no matter what I do

As I continued to walk for 5 days I realized I stop seeing animals around day 4 which scares me but I still had rations, After some time while I was walking I heard a giant roar which came from behind me when I turned around I saw a giant rhino with tree horns running toward me without hesitation I threw the spear that I made and it broke

I manage to dodge it in the nick of time, but as the time I prepare to concentrate my hand with fire magic it was already too late the rhino was already in front of me but I manage to block it which causes me to be thrown into a tree

Good thing the horns didn't stab me in the chest and I manage to block the rhino's horn because of my thick coat that came from a beast I killed, But I definitely had some broken bones in my arms and ribs from the impact

"I can still defeat the beast," I said before to change my stance into a stance that I learned from my past life I got into a Muay Thai stance and focused my mana onto my legs, "If I can't use my legs I'll use my legs," I said with a smirk on my face

As it ran toward me I focused all my mana into my right leg as I began to swing my leg it caught on fire instead of aiming at its horn I decided to play dirty, So I decided to aim at its eye as it makes contact I heard the animal shriek which causes it to lose balance and hitting itself at a tree before knocking itself out

"F@ck you rhino," I said while giving a middle finger to its unconscious body before killing it and breaking its horns, And grabbed some vines from the trees and some small pieces of wood to make two small daggers "This could work for a while," I said while sharping on a smooth stone and I skinned it with my brand new daggers, I covered my self in its skin

After that, I rested into a small caved and slept so my bones could heal even if its a little bit,

As I woke up I put on my armor that I made from the rhino and my coat from the wolf, I continued to walk for about an hour before coming across a stream

I got some water and grabbed a long stick and carved it into a spear and tried to catch some fish after a while I manage to capture three fishes I cooked one of them with my fire magic I sat down on a log and continue to eat my fish

As I continued to eat I sense an arrow coming towards me I manage to block it my ducking I immediately got both of my daggers and gotten into a stance I lower myself and placed my left leg in the direction of where the arrow came from and my right leg is there so I don't fall and hold my daggers with a reverse grip

"False Alarm!" someone said and then I saw a beautiful young lady running across the stream I still didn't lower my guard instead I sent out an enormous amount of killing intent that I learn from my previous life

Then she suddenly stops and said, "Who are you kid?" I stood there silently "C'mon we don't get all day!" she said "Whitlock, Whitlock Barentos" I replied hesitantly "What are you doing here?, It's dangerous here," she said and continued to walk over

As she walked closer I saw her black silky hair with gray eyes with and in light armor, she seems to be carrying a long sword "Put the weapon down! She shouted so I drooped both of my daggers and before they hit the ground

I turned around and throw the spear that I made she manages to block it while she was blocking the spear I grabbed my daggers and charged at her and attacked her with both of my blocking one of my daggers "Cecilia!" A bunch of guys shouted as they rushed towards us

The woman or Cecilia put her hand up causing them to stop "This is my battle" she said as a smirk began to rise from my face I continued to strike at her she sweep my legs causing me to fell but before she could strike I already rolled away from her

"Nice to meet you, Cecilia," I said before throwing my right dagger and lighting my hand on fire she manages to block my dagger but she didn't saw my arm was about to hit her stomach which sends her rolling on her back

Before I picked up my I was sent back by a giant wave 'What was that?, that must have been her' I thought before looking at her completely covered in floating water, And then I realized something

"I surrender," I said dropping my weapons and raising my hands which shocked the guys watching "Your magic power is much stronger than mine, I just saved us trouble," I said with an irritated expression

"You're smarter than you look," She said with a smirk on her face "How did you survive in here," she said I answered with a confused expression "Don't tell me you got lost in the forest," she said while drinking water

"I did get lost," I said then she choked on the water "What!?, that means you alone right?"

She shouted before running towards me "Of course, Is there a problem?" I asked

"Of course! you're in the forest of Gremma!" She shouted which shocked me

"Gremma?!, The dangerous forest? How did I get here" I asked her "That's what I'm asking you!" She shouted I fell on my back 'How much did I travel?' I asked myself "How long were you living here?" Cecilia asked " Around 2 days" I answered, "How did you not die?" Cecilia said "I don't even know myself, to be honest," I said
