Chapter 3: Terissa, the world language

After looking at the menu for a while, I used another magic spell that could help me.

"Creative hand...How does this thing work?" I asked myself. 

I clicked the creative menu, and a few lists appeared under it.

Cook…

Sew…

Build…

Make…

I kept on searching until I stumbled upon a very interesting word.

Replication

Ahah! Replicating! Let's see what I can do with it. I tapped on it and read the explanation. 

.. can replicate everything you wanted to replicate, including the abilities of the things you wanted to replicate.

"Are you sure you want to do that?"

A voice suddenly spoke to me out of nowhere, making me gasp. Someone is speaking inside my head. 

"Who the hell are you?" I replied to whoever was speaking inside of my mind.

"I'll explain later. Do you want to use replication?" 

"Yes!"

"Tell me what you want to replicate. And say it."

Perfect! This is perfect! I immediately think of something that will defeat the Dragon. And when I think of someone who could stand on Dragon's fire, I immediately speak it. 

"Alright! Replicate metal Golems!"

Suddenly, a magic circle showed up in front of me. 

"A magic circle?! Oi, what are you planning, worm?!"

The Dragon is now furious and roared once again. 

Two metal golems emerged from the magic circle. The Golems were shorter than the Dragon, but I believe in them.

"Golems? Do you think that those things can stop me? Are you mocking me!?" the Dragon screamed at me. 

"You can command the Golems however you wish, but I might suggest that you have to be careful of the Dragon's body. He lived almost five hundred years, and his meat now has a high value. You can sell it for gold coins or just cook it. Nevertheless, the Dragon is a walking gold producer," said the voice in my head. 

"Okay!" I replied. I'll figure out later what I can do with the Dragon's body, but first, I need to defeat it. 

The Dragon got really enraged and breathed fire on the metal golems. But nothing happened aside from my golems glowing in reddish color. After the Dragon stopped blowing his fire, my golems stood in the same place as if nothing happened. 

Seeing this, the Dragon's eyes bulged in shock.

"T-that's impossible!"

The Dragon was frustrated and tried to breathe fire again to get my golems to melt. 

"Oi Dragon! You're wasting your time trying to burn them! They are not simple golems, for your information. They were not affected by your fire," I told him.

"What did you say?!"

"I said your fire can't affect them other than making them piping hot golems. They can withstand your fire. They are made of earth's finest metal called stainless steel!" I replied. 

"Earth what? You-!"

"Golems! Attack the Dragon but make sure his body is still intact. We need him whole," I ordered the Golems. 

The metal golems obeyed my command and attacked the Dragon. One created a steel spear, and the other was a sword. The spear user aimed its spear at the Dragon's head. The Dragon moved in an attempt to dodge the spear; one of the three last spikes pierced his left eye. 

The blood came from the pierced eye drops on the ground. 

"You specs of dirt! I'll burn you alive!" 

The Dragon was about to attack again until I made another move. 

"Bring the Dragon down and attack it! Aim the head!" 

The spear golem created four spears, two of each hand, and aimed at the Dragon's wings. Since the Dragon could barely see, it couldn't move to dodge the attack. The spears tore off the Dragon's cloth-like wings, making him lose his balance, and he dropped to the ground. 

The sword Golem then ran towards the Dragon, aiming its head for a clean cut. 

"D-damn y-" With those final words, the Dragon was completely beheaded by the Golem and dropped his lifeless body sprawled on the ground. 

When the metal golems confirmed that the Dragon was dead, they disappeared. Maybe it was because they completed their job. 

Once the golems left, I collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily. I can't believe I fought a dragon. How do fantasy characters handle this kind of stuff? I thought I was going to die…again. 

The last time I was breathing so hard was when I had to run full speed away to avoid when my landlord came to collect rent. Well, at least here, I survived. 

With that being said, I have to deal with another issue. How come I don't have any offensive magic whatsoever? And besides, the voice in my head. 

"I'm not just a voice in your head, Lancelot Arcade," a child's voice spoke again in my head. 

"Then who are you?" 

"My name is Terisa, your guide in this world. I am your World language or guide whether to your skill or any question you want about this world."

"Oh? How did you even invade my head? Since when?"

"The moment you died and reincarnated here. You are the one million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand humans who came into this world and the first to surviveYou impressed me, and your will to survive was unmeasurable."

"Are you kidding me? Who would want to be burnt down by a dragon? It would be agonizingly painful. I refuse to die like that nor die again," I replied. 

"That's good. Why don't you stand up and gather the Dragon's carcass?"

"Why would I do that? And where do you think I will store that huge body?"

"First of all, you have a storage box. Second, that Dragon has a huge bounty on its head. The villagers and the guild master have placed him on a classified S quest. Many had tried to kill the Dragon but failed. Even the strongest adventurer in the guild had been burnt to death."

"Was the dragon that strong?" I asked her, confused. 

"Yes. The one million up humans were the Dragon's food, which made him stronger and developed a human language. I wasn't expecting you to survive; otherwise, you'll be the two millionth human trying their luck here. I didn't expect you to survive, though, and got to talk to me."

"You're rude. Do you know that? But anyway, I barely survived. It was thanks to the magic I had," I replied. 

"Shall we store the dragon's carcass in your storage box?" 

I rolled my eyes at her, imagining she was before me. 

"I don't even know how to use it."

"I'll activate it," Terisa replied, and then suddenly, a huge glowing circle appeared under the Dragon's body, and something was pulling it inside the circle.

I watched it under the body, completely submerged, and disappear along with the glowing circle. 

"That's it?" 

"Yes. From now on, all you have to do is to think of storing anything you want to store or withdraw. Your storage box will open up for you."

"Awesome!"
