A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy

7 – I’m Groot(3)

As I remember, Soul World is not a hopeful game.

There are a lot of stories that are as unpleasant as the dirty operation, and if the ending does not meet the conditions, it is a bad or sad ending.

First of all, if you’re not careful, the characters will die. It’s not a lie, if you don’t, you’ll die in a blink of an eye.

A particularly strong memory is when I entered the forest with a colleague to find medicinal herbs. I remember her more because she is a pretty character.

Among the options, there is an option to travel together or to travel separately. Most newbies who don’t know anything choose the latter.

The latter is chosen with the mindset that even if it is dangerous, it can be saved. And that would be the worst option.

If I had been a little late, I would have been killed by Mankey. It would be shocking to see a person turn into porridge right in front of your eyes.

Anyway, if you choose to go together, you can save it, and it helps quite a lot. It’s a game where the abilities of other characters other than myself also go up.

With these elements, people can realize that Soul World is never a ‘friendly’ game.

It’s okay if you do this, but that bastard’s battle is the problem. Control is much more important than stats.

“What can I do? Then you can’t understand what we’re talking about?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

Ellie, who was destined to be killed by Mankey, and a woman who introduced herself as Luna had a conversation.

They both wear different outfits, but they are wearing small bags. It seemed to be to gather herbs.

I looked at a woman named Luna among them. That look is very familiar.

‘Light yellow hair and sky blue eyes. Is that right?’

There is no customization in Soul World. So, you have to choose between male and female.

It’s a shame because the modeling is good, but if it wasn’t even that, it wouldn’t have received a good evaluation even from the mania.

So, the woman I introduced Luna now means that she is the main character of this world. Memories of her almost disappearing come to her mind again and again.

‘Is your occupation… A knight?’

Looking at the appearance, it seemed like a basic job among the basics, a knight. It’s half-assured, seeing as he’s holding a normal-length sword.

Efficiency is good for a knight no matter which tech tree he rides. That’s why most beginners tend to choose articles.

The setting is that he was taught swordsmanship by a ‘wanderer’. This is an official setting, so it’s the same even if you choose a different job.

First of all, no matter what job you choose, your basic weapon is a ‘sword’. By the way, you can meet the wanderer later.

Because he is a bit grotesque, users are surprised. The story is pretty good too.

‘It must be hard.’

For me who vaguely know the future, I feel sorry.

Are you losing a precious colleague due to a momentary choice or being betrayed by that colleague?

But she is her future gonabal, and it is more important that she has met a person once. I want to go outside

I got used to the forest, but I never forgot my longing for civilization. You also need to know how to return to the original world.

First I have to find the person who sent me here. The prime suspect has already been thought of.

“Why don’t you start by finding out where he lives? Maybe there are more survivors.”

The beginning of an unkind game, Ellie said in a calm voice.

She is calm enough to think that she was about to die.

‘Come to think of it, isn’t this guy pretty good too?’

I barely stumbled upon my fading memories. There are so many unique characters that it was hard to remember the details, but Ellie knows.

Light brown hair of moderate length and neatly trimmed bangs. Round eyes and golden eyes.

Although she was smaller than Luna, her chest stood out. Standing next to each other, they are clearly comparable.

Most of the characters in Soul World have good modeling, but Ellie stands out among them.

As far as I remember, she praised the potion pouch as being great. If that pocket meant that, I could understand.

‘He’s very handsome. Thank god.’

If you save Ellie, she doesn’t have to worry about potions from the mid to late game. As far as I remember, it was related to alchemy.

Because of this, saving her early will make her story very easy. Instead, she has to raise her stats with all sorts of quests until then.

It’s comfortable to see him as a so-called character who pays for food. The problem is that even after Ae-ra, like the sunfish, there will be many crises.

If you let Ellie live, she doesn’t have to worry about potions, so it should be seen as a kind of balance patch.

Of course, it is treated as a sunfish by users.

“You make sense. You just knew how dangerous it is out here. We need to get out of here right now.”

“You want to leave that person here?”

“That’s…”

Luna glanced at me at Ellie’s sharp point. I just stand there and watch them.

I want to make it clear that I can understand what you are saying. But it’s nothing but a fuss.

More than anything, I missed the timing. You must already think of me as a primitive beyond a savage.

To be honest, I kept my mouth shut because it was a situation that would help me too.

“So let’s find out where he lives. Is that okay?”

“······What if that man poses a threat to us? As you’ve seen before, he’s strong enough to easily block Manky’s attacks. I can’t handle him either.”

“Ah. If it was like that, it would have been enough to kill us long ago. Maybe they instinctively realize that they are the same people?”

Ellie tapped her Luna on the shoulder and said. She also remembered her characteristic optimistic personality.

Luna looked at me with a subtle expression, perhaps persuaded by Ellie’s words. I just keep my mouth shut.

“······Then how are you going to get to where that person lives? I don’t understand the language.”

I will guide you through that from now on. As soon as I heard Luna’s words, I turned my back.

As I turned my back, I could feel the embarrassment on both of them.

“······Wouldn’t it be better to follow?”

“······For now. Is the special compass all right?”

“It’s working fine.”

There is also a special compass. That means you can get out of this beggarly forest.

Ah. Before that, I have to take Manky’s corpse back with me. I dragged Manky’s corpse with his head and brain blown off.

The two of them hesitated at the sight of me easily dragging a giant gorilla that was well over 5m tall.

I’m sure you’re bewildered that he’s gone as if he’s dragging some luggage. With the main character’s strength, he wouldn’t even be able to try.

“You must be a survivor, right?”

“It could be that someone was born here. No one has recently gone missing after entering this forest. I believe the last one went missing 20 years ago.”

“So you’re saying he’s been living here for 20 years?”

“You have to see his face to know… From the outside, he looks like he’s at least in his 40s.”

No. No matter how many years I’ve lived here, I’m definitely not in my 40s.

He thinks that I can’t understand my words, so he talks about himself.

I think this guy’s hair and beard are the problem. He looks old even with just a beard, but he has grown his pith.

Moreover, his bangs were too long to cover his face. I can see the front, but other people won’t be able to see my face.

‘It’s a waste to shave though.’

I don’t know about his hair, but it’s a beard that I’ve been growing for a long time. Although he could refine it with magic, he just neglected it.

Maybe he gave up going out of the woods from then on. It was like saying what to do when no one is going to see it.

Anyway, I didn’t stop walking while the two stabbed a dagger in my heart.

Sometimes it was fun to flinch every time I looked back.

“······Why do we keep watching?”

“Maybe it’s because I’ve never seen anyone other than us?”

Think freely. I know what you all are talking about.

Whether they whispered or not, they dragged the corpse of Mankey to the lair.

It’s not like there weren’t any accidents along the way.

Steel Puck-

“Huh? Ah. Such a dog…”

“What’s wrong, Luna?”

It was going well, but Luna stopped in her place with a double bath. When they stopped, I stopped too.

Luna was crumpling her face the way she did, looking at the brown lumps on the soles of her shoes. It is a face full of disgust.

“I stepped on poop.”

“What?”

“I stepped on poop. It’s a place where there are many animals, so be careful.”

Luna stepped on poop. She was arrogant and spit out all sorts of swear words. Her mouth is rougher than it looks.

Anyway, I think I was cheap. It was near the hideout, so I marked the territory.

Originally, animals have a good sense of smell, so we need to leave traces like this. In my mind, I also made a bathroom.

There are only beasts around, so we have no choice but to use the beast’s method.

‘I have to carry this until I die.’

I can’t even talk properly, so there’s nothing to be found out about.

Luna used a nearby tree branch to roughly remove the dirt from the bottom of her shoe. Even so, her impression did not unfold.

That’s how pretty faces get ruined. Hey, I stepped on poop, but even if I had no luck, I would think that I had no luck.

‘Is your luck low?’

She even had these stupid thoughts. In fact, all sorts of things happen when your Luck is low.

The so-called legs are out of sync frequently. It’s like a situation where if you hit one, you die, but you can’t hit that one.

People thought that luck was applied to the patterns of monsters, but it was hard to figure out exactly because it was literally luck.

In addition to

, It has a large and small effect on the item drop rate. Even so, there are just no unlucky guys.

“Wow… It looks like you live here? Oh, isn’t that a bear?”

“······That’s right. From the size of its hide, it looks like a giant bear.”

After walking, I arrived at the hiding place.

As soon as Luna and Ellie arrived at the hideout, they chatted while looking at the dismembered bear skin.

Because the leather hasn’t been fully polished yet, it’s lying on the floor. So, you will feel quite intimidated.

I threw away Mankey’s corpse and looked at them. I’m busy looking around the hideout.

‘Let’s eat some meat.’

There’s bear meat that’s been properly smoked just in time. I put the smoke-roasted meat into my mouth.

It tastes really good. There was no distinct smell of meat at all, and the gravy was just right.

This is the result of using special plants for firewood during smoking. Sooner or later, I felt like I was going to eat everything.

‘Can I give you something to eat?’

I can’t speak anyway, so I have no choice but to express my liking.

I shifted my gaze to them, who were busy looking around the hideout.

In the meantime, Luna doesn’t know where she went, but only Ellie remains. According to her presence, she seems to have gone into a cave.

Sug-

“Huh?”

As Ellie stared curiously at her bearskin, she quietly held out her meat.

As I silently handed over the meat, Ellie’s golden eyes widened. Looking at it up close, it’s pretty.

In the meantime, she looked at me and the bear meat I held out, then opened her mouth in a puzzled voice.

“You want me to eat?”

“··· ···”

She points her finger at herself and asks back. I nodded her head.

Ellie blinked her eyes as I gave a comprehensible response, then murmured softly.

“Hmm… It’s not like you don’t know doctors at all. Wouldn’t it be okay if we communicated with gestures?”

“··· ···”

“I’ll eat it anyway. It looks delicious.”

After guessing her self, she took the bear meat as she did. She gave it not with her bare hands, but by sticking it into a branch like her skewer.

Anyway, my hands are too dirty, so it’s a bit too much to give with bare hands.

There’s a valley nearby, so I’m constantly washing it, but it’s dirty because I just dismantled it.

‘Isn’t he also from the countryside like the main character?’

The main character has at least the assortment of villages, while Ellie is known to be a poor village among poor villages.

Also, the setting was to pick herbs directly from the old days, and it seemed like this much was overdone.

I’m glad that I’ll feel rejected if it’s too long.

“Wow. It’s delicious. Was bear meat really this tasty?”

Ellie put the bear meat in her mouth and let out her exclamation. The round golden eyes were very cute.

Originally, wild animals have a distinctive smell. I ate without thinking and almost hurt my stomach.

The herbal medicine was devised to somehow get rid of it. The odor was removed by using herbs that were widely spread around.

Thanks to this, you can be sure of the taste as it gives off the unique scent of herbs instead of the smell.

Why does such a guy eat his intestines raw? Even if you cook it, it has no meaning because the taste is there.

The intestines are literally to satisfy hunger or calories, and the meat is for emergency food and appetite.

“Anyway, they definitely recognize people as their own people? Looking at how they even distribute food.”

“f*ck (what are you saying).”

Who do you see as a wild man with no intelligence? Embarrassed, the answer came immediately.

Of course, it is impossible for Ellie to understand. I don’t know when this bastard’s speech impediment can be fixed.

“But where did Luna go?”

I heard you were going to the cave earlier. She’s not much to say that she’s in a cave anyway.

A crudely painted mural in order not to forget the story of the game and the times I lived here.

Even the heads of hunted animals are placed as decorations. Also, weapons made for spare use.

‘I need to see what you’re doing.’

I moved her steps to my lair where Luna entered. What are you doing coming out so late?

Ellie, who had been chewing on bear meat, hurriedly followed my actions.

“Go with me, Sivar!”

Stop-

I stopped walking at the sound. What did that woman just say?

As soon as I heard her call of Ellie, I turned her attention to her. At the sight of her, she flinched.

Certainly that ‘Sivar’ doesn’t refer to me. In response, she pointed at me with her index finger and opened her mouth.

“f*ck (me)?”

At that gesture, Ellie blinked her big eyes, and then she smiled brightly.

It was for a moment that I was distracted by a smile as warm as the sun, and after hearing the next words, I felt as if I was flying far away in amazement.

“Yeah! I’m going to keep talking about it, so I’m going to do it by name. How is it? Are you okay?”

“··· ···”

Call it at will. I can’t even remember my name now.

With a broken heart, I moved on again.

“Do you understand me or not?”

“··· ···”

“I don’t know. Is it because it has a special meaning? Shivar!”

“f*ck.”

“As expected!”

After all, what?

‘I cursed, this woman.’
