"In this world, there are many species. Orcs, elves, monsters, creeps, and many more. Each of these types has varieties. Regions are like 11 or more. I have seen 11 till now so I don't know much. This is it. What else do you need?"

"Just 11 regions? And Elvian is one of them?"

"Hmm. It is. "

Hmm... this information is not so much. But for now, let's stay with this.

"Well is there anything like a map?"

"A map you say. Why would we need a map? Don't you have the senses for directions?"

Senses for directions? Do elves have this ability? Ah... What a pain in the ass.

"I'm a mutant. I think I don't have that ability. "

"That's a common ability for elves, are you an elf though? "

Shit! This is problematic. She is doubting me...

"I don't know."

"Ok, whatever. Let's go now you need to get trained for your abilities to awaken."

"Where?"

"Outside the divine protection."

Outside the divine protection? Outside of Elvian is it?

#Notification

You have increased your tolerance for cold to 40%.

Ah, this again. So my tolerance for negative atmospheres increases if I stay in these atmospheres? 40%? Not bad. That's why I say why I don't feel that cold like before.

Finally out from that cold weather. We came out from the divine protection of Elvian. Again those ruins but these are maybe different from before. It seems so. A small creep came out from the ruins. Not like the first ones. So actually this is another place.

#Opponent type - Melee creep

level - 6

What? level 6? Just level 6? Too bad. This won't increase my XP much. But whatever.

"Do you think you can defeat this creep? " Istia Elvian asked me if I could defeat this little creep... huh. It would be my cup of tea... No, wait. It would look suspicious if act over smart. Would it look suspicious if I say that I can Or would it look suspicious if I say that I can't? Which one? This creep is weak so I should say I can, shouldn't I? No no, she has some ideas of my level. She can anticipate it. She fought me before. The system is only available for me. But she can understand everything based on what it looks like from the outside. I was level 5 back then but now I'm level 9. If I defeat it without any efforts she of course will be suspicious. I can't get caught with the thing inside that divine protection. I have to be careful.

"Yes, I can. I'll try my best."

I swung my dagger. I had to kill it with at least 4 swings so that it doesn't look that suspicious. It's painful shit. Whatever..

"You are... not bad with skills. That's pretty good. It's enough for today considering it's your first day."

After that, we went back to Elvian.

"Grace for the future moon of Elvian. The elves, they didn't return yet. There is no news or signal from them."

An elf came to Istia Elvian. These elves sometimes go hunting outside of Elvian. In these five days around 7 elves went outside for hunting. And now there is no news for them. Why would it be? Why no news? Isn't it because they are dead. Those who went hunting got hunted instead. (Evil smirk)

"Did they encounter any strong opponent? If so, they would've sent a signal to us. What happened? Okay, I'll see the matter. "

They can even send signals? One of their common abilities, is it?

"Hey, Mutant, You will go with me. You will get trained in a way. You just need your abilities to wake and prove us. "

"Okay."

The next day we went out from Elvian.

"What might have happened? Not even a single news from them? "

Ah. the future moon is tensed for her subjects. So sad.

"It seems so."

"I don't like your short replies. It makes me worried about the bet I'm placing on you."

"Huh? Why? I don't understand."

Shit. Is it suspicious to answer shortly? Why is she being worried?

"It's because this bet means a lot for Elvian and the elves. Its safety is depending on these divine powers. The elves are weaker mostly than those from the outside. The divine protection protects the elves. I don't want them in danger. It also includes you. So the foretelling, if it's true then it'll help the elves, save them from dangers."

"Ah... is that so. I understand the importance. I'll do my best as an elf."

"You are confident, aren't you? Well..."

She suddenly stopped. I turned back.

"What happened?"

Her blue eyes turned golden. "Come with me."

Suddenly, she started running towards the bush. Why? Why is she approaching that bush though? Did she...I also had to go after her.

She stood right in front of the bush. What if she gets suspicious of me? Damn this. I went after her.

"The elves.....they were annihilated. Why all of them in one place? "

"The elves?"

I saw her grim face at that moment. It was like someone murdered her family. The anguish was reflecting on her face.

"What just happened here? Let's go."

Some mere creeps and monsters crossed our roads. We defeated them. She found out about those elves. Shit.. I needed more time. More time for level up.

#Opponent type - giant creep. (ranged)

level - 40

Special skill - granite smash.

level - 40? Can she defeat it? The level gap is big. I doubt she can. If she doesn't defeat it, it'll be problematic for me.

" We will retreat from here now. We can't defeat this creep. "

What is she saying? retreat? Never. Nice opportunity. I'll use this creep now.

"What? mutant? move. We will retreat. Hey! don't you hear me?"

"I'm..... I'm scared. I can't..This thing is so huge..... I....."

The giant creep was going to attack me. Right at that moment, Istia pushed me very hard. She took the attack on herself.
