The Benefits of Training[Open]

[kokkakku]

After I finished talking with Dumah I started moving towards the gate towards Windsor Greatwood. On the way I saw many people with sad looks on their faces. "I guess they underestimated the monsters." I said to myself trying to stay positive. "That's what you get if you're not careful I guess." I think to myself while continuing to look around. After I made it to the gate I unsheathed my weapons and took a battle stance. I wouldn't want to end up looking like the ones I saw before now would I. I decided to scout ahead a bit so I could identify monsters and also learn how to beat them easily. After a couple minutes I found a Dull Green Slime and disposed of it quickly. I continued killing Dull Green Slimes for awhile. They were very easy. I kept moving looking for a stronger opponent. I found a couple of Young Pittered Boars and beat them too. I also found a few Frenmic Rabbits. Most of them got away but I manged to kill two of them. I then saw a level 5 Garden Snake and decided to back off until I got stronger. I decided to stop scouting ahead at that point. I decided to take a break from fighting and restore my Mana and HP. I found a nice looking tree and sat down near it. The shade of the tree felt very nice. Before I knew it I was asleep.

I woke up. "Crap! I fell asleep!" I exclaimed. "What time is it?" I check the menu looking for a clock. "Dang no clock. But it looks like it's gonna get dark soon so I must have been asleep for multiple hours. I should find an inn to stay the night at." I say quietly. I start to get up and I notice that there are still quite a few people training so I observe them to see how they fight. Nobody really stands out among the people training so I decide to call it a day. I start heading back to the gate of the town but just then I saw something in the corner of my eye. I look over to where I saw it. There was nothing there. "Must be my imagination." I think. There it is again. And again! I guess it wasn't my imagination. I start to search for it. My Acrobat subclass is very useful in this situation. I swing through trees searching for the red thing I saw in the corner of my eye. I pass by Dull Green Slimes, Young Pittered Boars and Frenmic Rabbits but none of them are red. I continue searching until I find a clearing. In that clearing I saw two Adventurers and a level 4 Garden Snake. I got worried for a bit but the battle was over quickly. I had found Crimson Blood.

[Crimson Blood]

I was walking through the forest of Windsor Greatwood with Kode looking for a good opponent for me to fight. I was also helping with Kode's Bestiary research. We had found multiple enemies but we already had them in the Bestiary so we beat them quickly. We had also put easy ways to beat enemies in the Bestiary so it was very useful. We'll definitely be using this a lot. After a while longer of searching and fighting we found a small clearing and a level 4 Garden Snake. I almost stepped on it but then Kode stopped me. I would have died many times if it weren't for him. we disposed of it quickly while jotting down information about it. According to Kode this was a fairly weak Garden Snake. Then I noticed someone watching us from a tree. "Hey Kode, Who do you think that is?" The person seemed to notice me noticing him and darted back into the shadows. When Kode looked he was gone. He then gave me a strange look as if saying "It's in your imagination". I looked back to the spot thinking he was long gone. He was still there. I told Kode to look again but he had disappeared again by the time Kode looked. He gave me that strange look again. I decided that it was probably fine and ignored it. If he tried to kill us me and Kode could dispatch him quickly, even if he was in a group. We continued walking with me turning around and checking if he was still there. Every time I checked I saw him. I started to wonder why he was stalking us. After we were out of the forest a kodachi hit the ground in front of me. It had a note attached. The note read "Is the person beside you trustworthy? if so say yes if not say no". Confused I said "yes." Right after that I person came flying from the trees and landed in front of me. The person was Kokkakku. I immediately hugged him.
