Kendra dazedly opened her eyes and looked around. That cute tiny creature told her about this world.

People had powers and she as well. But to become powerful she needs to use it. Thinking about all the books she read in her past life, she understood the gist of it.

She looked at the small cave he let her into and blinked a few times. Here she had only a few wild vegetables to eat and some simple animals to hunt. But where are other people?

She sniffed the air and knew right away she will be in trouble if she doesn't find other humans. It was smelling like winter.

Around her was nothing else to be seen than just the forest. But the yellow leaves that surrounded her made it certain for her that it was already autumn here. Looking left and right she just started randomly walking. The cave was just that, a cave. But that was not good enough for her to survive.

”So hungry.” She pressed her grumbling stomach and started running. But a strange thing happened. Her speed was quite amazing. ”Oh?”

She stunned herself and stopped. ”Is this my power?”

Thinking about it, even speed is an amazing skill. She could just run away from danger. She smiled brightly and looked down. Her feet are the same. She started laughing. ”What did I expect? To grow wings in my heels?”

Suddenly she froze. A pair of green eyes stared at her from the nearby bushes.

Her hair slowly rose as the head of the animal slowly came out. Green skin with red sprinkles and a long tongue that was followed by a long body. The biggest snake she ever saw in her lifetime.

”Oh, great. A snake.” She slowly hissed making the snake that was about to attack her stop in movement.

”How... interesting... Small human, where did you learn how to speak my language?” The snake curled in one spot and curiously looked at the girl in front of her.

Kendra froze. ”Huh, what do you mean your language? Don't you speak mine?”

Hiss could be heard from the snake as she shook her head. ”Tsk, tsk. I guess you are not aware of your skill. Too bad you will die now. I'm too hungry to let you go.”

Inside her chest, Kendra's heart was already beating quite fast as she saw the snake that was the size of a tree. To hear the death confirmation that she already assumed, made her feel weak and scared.

”Can't you let me go? To you, I'm just a snack. Such a powerful snake deserves something bigger and better.” Kendra tried to smile but from fear, her face was too frozen. So the snake only saw her calm expression and shiny eyes.

”Interesting. What should I do? I didn't hunt for a while. If you find me a bigger animal to eat, I won't hurt you. And don't think you can escape easily. Even with your speed skill, I'm faster than you.”
