I was shocked upon hearing the Half Spider's words: I was teleported to a faraway foreign land that had an atrocious name, The Forest of Dead.Which was supposedly located on an unknown continent that I've never heard about.Was it Laplace, Laplace Continent? I guess I'm really outside of Helium. Hearing about that there were no humans in these lands..." Axel mumbled through his mind.Huh? How did I get here?" Was all he could think of.That gleaming radiant light that had struck me was some sort of teleportation spell."Or did it totally obliterate me, and yet again I got reincarnated once more?"But seeing as my outfit was still the same as before, the latter thought seems not to be the case.Axel gulped and mustered the courage to ask, "May I know your name?"The half spider stared at me and replied, "My name is Erza, young one.""Erza... Nice to meet you; I am Axel.""Axel, What a strange name.""But are you going to eat me, Erza?" As Axel asked her while shivering in both coldness
Axel has been eating the Mana fruits without realizing that he is taking his time naked."Ah!" As he yelled with an embarrassed expression."Don't worry, young one." Erza said this and turned around.She then raised her hands as threads appeared from her finger tips and slowly started performing gestures as if she were weaving.After several minutes passed, a plain white long-sleeved shirt was produced along with a pair of plain white pants."Here, wear this, young one." She said and handed him the clothes she had made.It was strange seeing her produce clothes like it was nothing. Her performance made me realize, Can I also do it with my skill?" Axel wondered and wore the clothes she gave him. They felt warm and soft."How did you make these?" Axel asked."I can make these because of my skill." Erza responded.Without considering, he abruptly asked her. "What's your skill, Erza?"Back in Helium, Axel's father, Damian, always told him not to share any specific information about his ski
Erza used her skill, thread manipulator to make a hammock swing bed for me to use. While we continuously ate Mana fruits that the Mana tree bore.While Axel also tried absorbing mana fruits and mana crystals, due to their strange principles, his absorption skill wasn't able to absorb them.The mana-rich environment also helped Axel boost the cultivation of his mana core.Erza taught him a lot about mana and his skills.Her explanations were so thorough and precise that Axel understood them easily.Due to her skill being similar to his, it made Axel doubt if he was purposely sent here to meet her or if it was really just a coincidence.Her skill thread manipulator had the same function as mine, but she doesn't have the absorption subskill." Axel mumbled in his head."Skill Status." Erza mumbled and showed Axel his skill status window.*Skill: Thread Manipulator, Skill Rank: S, Subskills Acquired: Thread Weave, Thread Hardening, Thread Sharpening*She could weave using her threads and ma
Three months had passed, and Axel's growth grew at a rapid pace thanks to Erza's guidance.Even though they were both deviants, Erza could still not ascertain why Axel's skill became a growth type."I have never encountered anyone with growth-type skills, young one; I'm afraid I don't have any knowledge about it." Erza stated.I guess my skill as a growth type is still a mystery that I'll need to discover." As Axel mumbled through his head."It's fine, Erza. You've been helping me plenty enough." Axel replied.Erza, who was always alone in this cave, once lived a lonely life and suddenly brightened after indulging herself in caring for Axel. His mere presence made Erza undeniably happy enough to pamper him with knowledge.Axel has been growing. His mana pool has already expanded at a fast rate. I don't know if he's a genius, but most of us have had trouble grasping the fundamentals of mana expansion. Whether it was a coincidence that I'd met him, or was it destiny? I'm surely happy tha
Another month had passed. Living alongside Erza was truly harsh due to her excessive training.But in spite of that, I've grown much more than I'd expected."I had finally reached the bottleneck of the intermediate stage. One final leap of cultivating would finally make me breakthrough onward to the advanced stage."Whether I reach the advanced stage or not, Erza did not bother since expanding my mana pool was the main priority."I also learned a lot of combat techniques thanks to Erza's guidance, whether they were crude or not. Every method that Erza knew was taught to me in order to survive in this foreign land.".............."Whether it's dirty or not, you mustn't care. In order to survive within Laplace, you must grab ahold of every possible opportunity that might arise. Whether you'd be called a coward or not, surviving and winning are your top priorities, young one."Erza stared at Axel while emitting an ominous bloodlust towards him, and Axel instantly flinched as he felt Er
Chained Blades: A blade formed similar to a sickle tied with chains from its bottom handguard tilt; a weapon that was used by a fictional game character named Klaytos; a game I used to play back on earth, which was called War of Gods.It was a game based on Greek and Norse mythology.Having knowledge about my previous world sure became helpful. There are tons of weapons I've had knowledge about, excluding guns, though.Especially the curved, single-edged blade with a squared long guard that was mostly inserted in a scabbard called a katana.While it saddens me that I was unable to create the modern weapons that were popularly used in the era I lived in before dying,Guns should have been a better choice than close combat weapons, but due to my knowledge, I lack information about guns. I couldn't create a functional gun with my skills.I guess I'll just have to stick with chained blades since they're easy to control."Having trained and honed my skill's aim accuracy and skill control, t
While Axel ate his food leisurely, Erza gently patted his head and chuckled slightly.Axel raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"Erza stared closely at Axel's face and said, "Nothing, young one," and continued twirling Axel's emerald hair.While Axel didn't bother and continued eating.As Erza stared deeply at Axel, she wandered in her thoughts.For the past several years, I've lived alone in this cave, without anyone else to converse with. Looking back at how we met near the river, I remembered that I was about to travel towards Argentina at that time. But after seeing this boy's body shivering in the cold, my body moved instantly and brought the boy back here in this deep mine."Without even considering if he was sent by the Rebellion Alliance to bait me."........."Mama, why do you keep on visiting the slums?""Because there are children wandering around there without food and parental guidance.""Why do you bother Mama? It's not your problem anyway.""Listen, Erza, whether i
Another three months had passed since that day, and Axel and Erza continued their hardcore training.Axel was taught all sorts of combat techniques that Erza possessed: swordsmanship, spearmanship, archery, and dagger arts.In a world where deviants like them possess a skill that can produce any sort of weaponry they have knowledge about, it was only right for them to learn each and every weapon they are able to create.Axel ran around and simultaneously shot arrows at Erza with his bow, while Erza deflected every arrow that was shot at her with her sword.Then Erza performed a swordsmanship stance and used Mana Armament.Mana Armament is a mana enhancement skill in which the mana of the user coats around the user's body and increases the user's agility, strength, and defenses.In an instant, Erza was seen rushing towards Axel, while Axel immediately attacked her with his chained blades. But amidst the blades that were aimed towards Erza, she instantly swung her sword two times, and
