Chapter 30

"Alright, let's start your training, Rouga . How do you want to get stronger?"

"I don't know~"

Don't know, huh . Well, I expected her to say something like that .

There are no monsters in this world .

Experience points are indispensable when raising one's level, and defeating creatures was necessary to obtain those experience points .

Although defeating monsters was not the only means to increase levels, it was still the typical way that anyone would rely on .

As I said, leveling up required defeating something; in other words, killing it and obtaining experience, though the acquired amount is limited for someone who has a low level .

Either way, there's no way I'd make Rouga murder just to increase in level so I started pondering about another way .

Everything would be resolved if there were monsters here though…

"Chief, you're not going to call monsters~?"

"That's absurd . There's no way I'd be able to… not summon monsters…"

I hit on a good idea that sp.a.w.ned from hearing Rouga's question .

Exactly as she said, I could just call some monsters .

Making my decision, I immediately started creating the appropriate skill .

"Skill [Summon magic]has been acquired . "

That's the one . I can summon monsters from another world using this skill .

"Alright, I'm summoning one now . "

"Right, got it chief~"

"Come, normal slime!"

As I chanted the spell, a small magic circle appeared in front of me and a blue slime popped out of it .

Right after leaving the circle, the normal slime started jumping up and down . I wonder if this jumping habit was one of their traits .

While I remained vaguely gazing at the tiny slime, Rouga came out before me and barked at it . Looked like she was full of motivation .

"Now, get him Rouga!"

"Wan!"

Obeying my order, Rouga rushed directly at the slime .

The slime was blown off the ground from Rouga's thrust, then its body melted and turned into light particles before it vanished .

Too weak . Didn't think she could finish it in one blow .

Being astonished by the normal slime's frail body, Rouga came rushing in my direction .

"Chief! I did it~"

Seeing the cheerful expression in Rouga's face, I couldn't help but pat her head .

She seemed so happy that she had won against the blue slime . Rouga waved her tail with a satisfied att.i.tude .

"Well done Rouga . But it's not the time to feel relieved yet . A slime is probably the weakest among monsters . "

"Understood~"

That's good . I stopped caressing Rouga and moved to start summoning the next monster .

"Come, Goblin!"

This a green creature the size of a child and holding a rod appeared out of the magic circle .

"GyiiGyiii . "

The goblin let out menacing sounds when it noticed the both of us .

"Rouga, the enemy this time isn't as weak as the last one . Be careful . "

"Got it!"

"Alright, get him!"

"Wan wan!"

Following my command, Rouga aggressively leaped at the goblin .

There was not a big difference in their levels, I wondered how things would turn out .

Watching over Rouga, I saw the goblin unleash his rod attack, aiming at her .

Rouga dodged the attack by moving sideways .

"Wan!"

With no further delay, Rouga swiftly jumped at the goblin .

Right when the goblin fell to the ground due to her ram, Rouga hopped on it and bit off a part of its throat .

"Gyiii!"

An immense amount of blood started flowing out from the goblin's neck, but as if she didn't mind it, Rouga continued biting .

The goblin kept on struggling violently for a while, though it eventually ran out of strength and didn't budge anymore .

Soon enough, it turned into light particles and disappeared .

Apparently glad about her victory, Rouga began howling like a wolf .

However, regardless of that… I already knew about it, but a fight between monsters was pretty cruel .

It was the first time I saw a goblin getting his throat torn off .

And for some reason, even though the goblin turned into light particles, Rouga's face was still dyed with blood . Quite the unsightly view .

"Chief~ I did it~!"

Finishing her howl, Rouga came running in my direction, her face dripping with blood .

Uwaa, gross .

She stopped near me and gave those eyes as if she was asking me to pat her head . Honestly, I don't want touch her now .

"W-Well done, Rouga!"

"I did my best so pat me . "

Noticing that I was apprehensive to touch her, she had put it in words .

Um, you see, I kinda don't want to…

"What's wrong?"

"Ah, how about we do something about that blood first…"

Running out of patience, Rouga resorted to a forceful method this time around .

"C'mon! Pat me~!"

"Wa! Don't jump at me, idiot!"

I barely avoided Rouga, who jumped at me with her blood-stained face .

"Why do you dodge me?"

"Like I said, do something about the blood… Wait, don't come here . "

"No, pat me-!"

Not lending an ear to what I was trying to convey, Rouga rushed toward me with terrific speed . Attempting to run away, I dashed in the opposite direction . Why did things turn out with Rouga chasing me like this?!

After that, I washed Rouga's face using water magic and heartily stroked her head .

e continued our training until she got even stronger .
