Chapter 62 The Fourth Exam (Part 2)

I arrived at the place where I finished the 3rd exam

The edge of the forest ends and a massive mountain blocked my view up ahead

It’s the place where I escaped the nightmare of a forest and wailed in both desperate joy and sadness

The feelings froe in my eyes and stared at the forest to the east

The bastards are in there

‘I will get e no matter what’

I promised to myself and turned to the other side and headed up the brown mountain

I don’t knohere the elf lives, but I decided start by going into the brown mountain

I sensed the direction of the center of the brownmy Guider skill

‘Elves…’

From the files from the Korean arena research center, I have read about the elves

I looked theent species that aren’t humans, I was interested

Elves look aler ears and whiter skin They are not white like Caucasians but a white that is actually void of color

Forest, mountain, rive, sea, they absolutely love nature Because of this, they hate hu nature

They usually live in remote areas where human hands haven’t reached and react most sensitively when humans or beasts invade in their areas

They shoot arroell and freely use spirit summons, and the spirit summons I have is a skill derived from the elves’ summons

Rarely, a human who loves and nurtures nature like the elves may befriend an elf and learn the spirit suhout the whole of Arena, numbers few

‘When they said examinees with spirit summons was only me, I can believe it’

This exa these elves

And to do that, first I have to approach an elf and earn their confidence, but I worry that because they are exclusive and unfriendly with huet close to them

The reassuring thing is that I am a spirit summoner

These elves love nature, so they will love spirits that are embodiments of mother nature

‘If I lead with Sylph and Kasa, it nal to them I’m not an enemy’

I kept going up the brown mountain

The slope is steep and every now and then I have to clith buff, I a Even if I fall, I can have Sylph catch me

The Arachne glove is a big help Grabbing between sharp rocks with my bare hands and it doesn’t hurt a bit

“Sylph”

-Meow?

I climbed to the top of the rock face and summon Sylph

“Check if there is a dangerous beast or monster nearby”

-Meow!

Sylph flits off

I let Sylph do her thing and kept on walking

A moment later, Sylph returns and nods her head

“Was there no excrement or footprints?”

Sylph nods her head the saain

In rough terrain without any humans, the fact that there’s no beasts or monsters must mean…

‘Thank goodness This must mean the elves are close by’

Then first, I should be careful not to das

While I chop wood for a fire I et shot with an arrow by an elf

I keep walking and pick up sticks that have fallen on the ground and put them in my pocket

I aather a substantial amount of sticks

About every 10 minutes and summon Sylph and Kasa It is not to scout the area

It’s because I’ alone

-Meow!

-Bark bark!

The two of theht with each other over my head

Sylph delicately ju her front paws, keeps punching, and Kasa shoves his face at her and dislodges her from her spot

Sylph uses her tail to pull on Kasa’s legs and knock him down and confidently walks back onto my head

Kasa jumps immediately and lands on top of Sylph

The two kiddos bickering and fighting with each other makes me happy As I walked, I discovered rabbit poop I asked Sylph to hunt it down and within 5 s back a rabbit

‘Should I rest here?’

I athered I handled the rabbit and arill it but because there isn’t a substantial piece of firewood, the first isn’t very big

“Kasa, grill it for me”

-Bark bark!

Kasa hts up a flame and cooked the rabbit in an instant

Whoosh!+

I asked Sylph to cut the rabbit into bite sized pieces I’ it and it is very well cooked A talent very befitting the spirit of fire

To spare the summons time, I send back both spirits and continue my meal

‘there is soht for just this occasion’

“Su”

The ite onAnd inside the bag is a s I sprinkle a little of the seasoning as I eat it and the meat becomes even tastier

Kasa really nailed it when cooking this and the rabbit is still incredibly juicy This is indeed the best meal I’ve ever had while in the Arena

But of course, it is not as good as Min-jeong’s cooking

‘I already miss her’

When ould go out on a date and then return to Min-jeong’s place, before heading to bed, she would always prepare food for me

The so and so average that Min-jeong had prepared became more impressive as she increased her repertoire of recipes she could make

Especially when she took soetables and cooked theether, I was surprised

I sigh

‘I won’t be able to see her for 30 days now I guess’

Is dating Min-jeong a mistake because when I was alone, I didn’t feel this kind of loneliness

Now I have now teaet used to the solitude

Fog begins to settle in the sky I ponder as to whether I should keep going or stop here for the day

But then

“Do not move human”

Far behind my back, I hear the voice of a man

I’m surprise and automatically shout

“Weapon!”

The Mosin-Nagant appears in my hands

“I said do not move”

I hear another warning from the man

‘Should I summon Sylph and attack?’

I don’t particularly enjoy life threatening situations

But I decide not to do that

I put the Mosin-Nagant on the floor and raise both my hands

“I have no intention of fighting”

“I will decide that”

Oh, will you?

I’m a little pissed off, but I hold it in It is because I knoho the enemy is I have no doubt that it is an elf

I can tell just by the fact alone that he called me human
