Author's Reincarnation in a Fantasy Setting



The evening had passed and the sun was now down, leaving us in darkness. The only light present in the sky was from the moon and the glow coming from the portals. 

Fortunately, it was a full moon thus the night was not completely dark. It would have been a real pain in the ass if it was since that would put us at a disadvantage against the demon beasts. 

ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "Say, for how long will we have to walk like this?" Req asked with a tired and bored expression on her face. 

"Hmmm, I'm not sure myself. But I'd say at least for three days," I replied.

"Three days?!! You're joking, right?!"

"No, I'm not."

"Come on!!! I'll die by walking for this long!" 

"You won't. I've never heard of someone who can survive a fall from the sky but not walk for a few days. Also, it's only been thirty minutes since we started walking."

"That's not what I'm talking about! I mean, I won't literally die but that just makes it even more boring."

"Oh really? Then did you used to travel by flying, back in the time?"

"For the most part, yeah."

"Ah…"

To be completely honest, the fact that she could fly had slipped my mind. 

"Well, don't worry. I don't think you'll be bored. There are no beasts here at the moment but I'm certain we'll face quite a lot on our way," I said. 

"Is that so?" she said while stretching her arms. 

After that, we continued to walk. Of course, just because I'd decided to rest didn't mean I was going to sit around and take a nap. 

Covering the distance while fighting the beasts at the same time was basically impossible, so this was a great chance to do that while the demon beasts were away. 

As for where we were headed, well, one would think that our destination was Havenreach. That was technically right, but I wasn't going to travel all the way there on foot. 

There were two main reasons for that. Firstly, I didn't know where it was located. In loli_pop's novel, Havenreach was a city built as the last line of defense for humanity where the humans could live and defend themselves from the demons. 

That was the place where all the students from the academy had been teleported to and where I sent my parents. But in the novel, the precise location of Havenreach was not described hence I also had no way of knowing where it was.

And secondly, even if I did know the location it would take us at least a month to reach there on foot. Therefore trying to do that was just a waste of time.  I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

Now, as for where I was really headed. To be honest, the answer was nowhere. I was just trying to get as far as possible from the city since all the cities were where most of the portals had opened. 

Naturally, the demons had done this to kill the maximum number of humans. After all, these demon beasts were only going to last for three days.

I mean, these beasts were not real demons. These were just monsters who had been modified by putting a demon core inside their bodies. The real demons looked more humanoid, and they were the ones who created these beasts to take out most of humanity at once. 

Anyway, the point was that these beasts would die automatically in the time of three days since the demon cores installed within them were also acting as a poison, slowly destroying their bodies from the inside.

Therefore, I was going as far as I could from the city to an area where there were little or no demon beasts left—that was the reason why I told Req that we would walk for three days. 

Once that is done and all the demon beasts die out, I will wait and recover all my mana then use the teleportation spell—the one I used to transport my parents—to get myself and Req to Havenreach.

Surprisingly, I had leveled up. Or well, perhaps it was not all that surprising. I had been pushing myself quite a lot after all. 

But due to that it will be a lot easier to hold out for three days and then gather my mana. 

Honestly, I would have preferred to get myself out of here as soon as possible. But the magic circle for that spell was so complex, probably the hardest I'd ever seen till now. 

Casting it took quite a lot of time and most of all, casting that spell takes almost all of my mana. Thus I needed to fill my mana pool completely before using the spell—which was not possible while I was constantly fighting the demon beasts. 

Therefore I had decided on this way of doing things. 

"Ah well…" I let out a heavy sigh as I continued to walk. Sure my stats had increased, but that did not mean I had recovered from all the physical damage I had taken. 

'It's at times like these when I wish I should have learned one or two healing spells,' I thought to myself. 

I was not sure, but I probably had a high fever too since my body was feeling hot. At first, I'd thought that my hormones had been acting up due to that kiss but there was no way it would last this long. 

Nonetheless, I had no choice but to endure. 

While walking I took a look at my clothes. The cloak I was wearing was almost entirely torn up. I felt a little bad seeing that since this was the cloak I'd bought when I went shopping with Anya and Ellyn during the holidays. 

Then it occurred to me, that I was feeling bad for something. Me feeling bad was a rare thing in itself if it didn't involve my family but for something as insignificant as a piece of cloth. 

That made me wander in my thoughts again. This was not the only time I'd noticed something like this. Ever since I came to this world, I was slowly but certainly starting to act weird. 

I was not being myself. It was not like me to behave this way. 

I was…not acting like myself. It would have been convenient to dismiss this thought as just my imagination, so that was what I did.
