"he's not serious, right? 2 months?!" Klyde said, panicking. "Like, I'd need to get way stronger in less than a month, and let's not talk about the journey there!"
Klyde took a deep breath and looked at the screen again.
‹Quests›
<Conquer Erina: 2mths>
"Okay, so 2 months. Going there would at least take me 3-4 weeks of travel and the training about 2 weeks. Gosh… I don't even know the penalties but I'm this worried. I guess we're going to Erina soon."
The next day, Klyde was at the guild looking for quests on the quest board. He wasn't wearing his old suit like always, but more casual clothes with no armor.
A person with white, long hair and a scar on his eye walked in. He wore gray and gray, furry clothes and had a buster sword on his back.
The moment he entered, all eyes were on him. He walked up to to Klyde and put his hand on Klyde's shoulder. Klyde turned to the man and looked rather annoyed.
"Excuse me? Who are you and what do you want?" Klyde asked.
‹↑ Othen Quinlore›
<Neutral>
"My name is Xavier Lance, and you must be Klyde Tolan right?." Xavier said
"Not wrong, now what do you want?"
"My, my. Aren't you a rude one. Are you new to this town?"
"Yeah…"
"Well, I'm the guild master here, and I've taken an interest in you."
As everyone heard that, their jaws dropped.
"Him?!"
"Why that guy, he's only level 20."
"Why that weak guy?"
Xavier spomped his foot to the floor and everyone immediately went silent.
"Oh, you're that guy."
"Yes, I heard you had skypirian armour too. Where is it?"
"I left it."
"My, my? Wasn't it expensive? You shouldn't be reckless like that you know."
"Did you come here for my armour?"
"No, I wanted to ask you something. How did you level up that fast? For low levels, it's hard to level up. Especially my 20 levels in a few hours."
Klyde had to think for a moment. He didn't know wether telling him was a good idea or not. He knew that there might be consequences to it as it didn't seem like an ability a lot of people had orknow about. "Eh… training, fighting monsters?"
"Hmm…, you sure?" Xavier glared at him, not buying his excuse.
"Y-yeah. Monster hunting."
"Well, if you say so. Well, I'm gonna head off. Got a lot of work to do. See you later."
"Yeah, see ya."
Xavier then went to Aella before leaving the guild. Klyde looked back at the board like nothing happened and everyone minded their own business.
After scanning the board, he caught interest in three quests. One was gather 10 White frost tails and 10 cores for 60 silver, level 55. Second was retrieve metal from Iron golems for 10 silver per clump, max 20, level 45. Last was obtain 22 Kyther Wolf Fangs, 10 Kyther Wolf tails and cores for 3.5 gold, level 90.
They were above his level so he couldn't take them to his disappointment. He was curious why no one had taken the quests as it's easy money and went to ask Aella.
"Morning Aella." Klyde greeted.
"Morning Klyde. Found any quests yet?" Aella responded.
"Actually, I was curious about something." He placed the quest papers on the table. "Why has no one taken these yet?" Klyde asked.
"Oh, those. There's rumors that an A level beasts roams deep in the forest. That's where you'll find those monsters on the quests. People don't wanna risk their lives going for it as the town only has up to C ranks. Xavier is activity looking for the thing to get business running again though."
"You wouldn't mind reserving it for me then, right?"
"You can't be serious."
"I am. If no one's taking it, I wanna reserve it. I can't take it now but I plan on levelling up. Then I'll go deeper in the forest and kill those things."
"Is this about Erina?"
"Kinda. I need to get strong soon and make money while doing it."
"I swear, you have a death wish… Fine, I'll do it."
"Thanks, Aella. I'll be heading off now. Bye."
"Rest in peace Klyde." Aella teased.
Klyde rolled his eyes at the statement and left the guild.
He was now in the forest looking for monster. He has also gotten a new quest from the system.

"Should I focus on magic or close combat. Magic is really power and I'll obviously need it when against strong opponents, so I'll focus on that."
‹ — Frost wolf›
<Aggressive>
"These wolf's are way too common. I'm guessing the '—' means it's equal to me. Then the downwards arrows means someone is weaker than me. The opposite for the upwards one. Well then, let's see what you can do."
Klyde took out his Blood Sword as the wolf jumped at him and with a swipe of his sword, he easy cut the wolf in half.

Klyde heard the sound of a water splash as he was turning he got his on the face by a water that sent him flying.
"What the?!"

"15 HP with a basic fireball. Probably because of the mp boost but it's the water element so it might have reduced the damage."
Klyde put his wand away and held his sword. He charged at the slime and jumped in the air, really to slice it in half. The slime blasted him again, knocking him away.
<Health: 300/340>
"Why does that thing have so much knockback?!" Klyde yelled. "No way am I dying to a slime."
Klyde charged at the slime again, dodging all of it's attacks. When he got close enough, he waited for it to shoot again and then used the meteor slash. He cut the slime in half and took out the core.

"That's 2 out of 10. And it's been 5 minutes. This is gonna be a long, long day."
This chapter took way longer than expected to finish. I was extremely tired and couldn't right it in the afternoon.
Also, turns out I kept mixing frost wolf with Frost Fox/ blue fox. I don't even know how that happened, I was checking the notes when writing and just saw fox and went "WTF"
I uploaded the map for the world on my page, POLAStudios for anyone interested. It's an old drawing though and I'm working on a digital version. I'll be posting stuff like characters designs, weapons as well as animation projects and other things there.
"Mhh, so far I've encountered 3 monsters. All relatively weak." Klyde said, walking in the forest. As he was looking around, he saw a Grey golem twice his size that looked like it was made out of metal.
‹↑Iron Golem›
<Aggressive>
"It's golem. The system says it's stronger than me, and aggressive. So I guess if it sees me it'll attack."
As he said that, the golem saw him. A clank was heard as it glared at did.
"Did I seriously have to jinx it?"
He noticed something else on the golem, it had glowing marking on his chest. He readied his and in an instant, the golem was in front of him. It punched him on the stomach and he was sent flying.
He fit a tree behind him and the tree dented, blood was coming out of his mouth.
<Health: 220/340>

His eyes widened as he saw it's level. He had read that iron golems typically were Level 40-50 but this one was 100. Something else he noticed was that it's mana was dropping by the second. When something has mana below 5% it gets weaker and becomes unable to move.

'I have 2 options. Wait 16 for it to get low on mana, run, or fight back.' Klyde though. 'I can't survive 16 minutes with that thing. With it's speed it can easily catch up to me. So that leaves me with 1 option.'
Klyde stood up and readied his sword again. The golem dashed at him again and threw a punch at him. He was able to duck but the tree behind him was destroyed. He tried to stab the golem but only made a little dent on its leg, doing 1 point of damage.
The golem kicked klyde in the stomach and he went flying again, hitting another tree. He grunted in pain as he spit out more blood.
<Health: 101>
"Yeah… I'm gonna die…" He said as he stood up.
≤Iron Golem≥
‹Mana: 960/1000›
"I'm not dying without a fight though." He starts running at the golem. "METEOR SLASH!" Klyde roared.
He jumped in the air and hit it's head.
‹↑Iron Golem›
<Heath: 899/1000>
He jumped of the golem and landed on the floor. The swords lifesteal ability recovered 100 of his HP.
‹Status›
<Health: 201/340>
"Thank god I have lifesteal." He said weakly. "When I get close again I'll spam Meteor slash but for now I'll use magic."
The took out his wand and pointed at the golem. "Let's try something new, shall we. Flame spike!" A spike made out of fire shot at the golem. Right as he shot the spikes he prepared another spell. Six fireballs formed around him and shot at the golem at bullet speed. First all 6 fireballs hit the golem, dealing 10 HP each, then the fire spike hit it, dealing 100 damage.
‹↑Iron Golem›

"I could blast another spike but I might reach 20% mana."
He put his want away his wand and ran to the golem again. The golem wasn't having it though and the moment he started running the golem dashed at him. He was able to block it's attack but was still knocked away.

≤Iron Golem≥
‹Mana:880/1000›
"So you stand still for still for a while then attack, huh? Well I've got you now."
Klyde ran do the golem again and used meteor slash on it again, dealing and recovering 100 HP again.
‹↑Iron Golem›
<Health: 639/1000>
He stood in a defensive position, waiting for the golem to attack again. After a while the golem attacked and he blocked the attack.
He used meteor slash on the golem again and was now at full HP. He jumped in the air and used meteor slash again.
‹↑Iron Golem›
<Health: 439/1000>
"So I can use it repeatedly." The marking on its chest changed to a red color and mist came off the golem.
"What now…"
The golem dashed at him, to fast for him to react. It then hit him, dealing 300 of his HP. Klyde yelled in pain as he was knocked away once more, his impact on the tree dealing 20 more hp.
‹Status›
<Health: 20/340>
'What… was that…? I…I can't move…'
Klyde was now now lying on the floor and bleeding out. He heard the sound of his system opening and looked up.

"That looks good enough. Now I hotter collect all these iron clumps."
Klyde inspected the golem's body before putting all the iron clumps in his inventory. He took the Titan Slayer he got from as a reward.
The Titan Slayer was a buster sword with the same dark gray color as the Iron Golem. It also had a black metal handle and a short rope at the end.
