We greeted with bright sunlight after coming out of the cave, I have to shield my eyes for a while to let them adjust to the light.
"We will follow your plan of the searching outskirt of the forest, it is the very good and safe plan," she said, when I told her about my plan searching the only outskirt of the forest, she accepted without any objection.
"It will be very, with you here," I said, I really meat it when I said it. In the outskirt of the forest, there are only private and specialist grade monsters and she is being at the peak of specialist grade, very few specialist grades could harm her.
Even if we come across Corporal grade monster, I will have a minute chance of survival because of her, that is what I am most happy about.
"Ashlyn, don't eat unknown fruits!" I admonished Ashlyn, this palm-size chubby monster really glutton, this is her third time today eating unknown things.
She never listened to me, especially when it comes to food, it hadn't been more than two hours since she ate lunch and she is still eating hungrily.
I heard many people got poisoned or dead by eating unknown in the forest but I don't want something happened to her, there no hospitals here nor did I have anti-poison potions, she will be in quite a dire state if she as something poisonous.
''Chew chew!" She chirped in defiance and ate another berry while looking at me.
"haha! This little birdy of yours is quite a glutton," said Rhea as she laughs seeing Ashlyn antics.
"Yeah, she loves to eat!" I said even rheas panda monster who is quite big is not as glutton as Ashlyn as stone pandas are known to be gluttonous.
We talked as we were walking, I come to know many things about rhea, she one and a half year older than me and also come from a small town like me.
I notice some sadness as she talked about her home town, I think she also misses it.
She said that she reaches a peak of specialist grade one year ago and trying to level up Corporal grade many times but failed.
I felt sad hearing this because of my condition worst than her, Ashlyn is only had class 2 strain, forget about the corporal grade, even leveling up to Specialist grade will be difficult for me.
The only solace I have that Ashlyn is mutated grey spark sparrow and despite her being having class 2 strain but being mutated will help level up quicker than her peers.
As we were walking, we saw something that stopped us on our track.
I didn't think we will discover the dead person before alive one. It looks too male from what left. it was already eaten by the monsters, all that left of the body was little flesh and broken bones, it was quite a gruesome scene to see.
I shuddered to see this scene, I didn't think I will find dead before finding someone alive, especially at the outskirts, as long as one is little careful, one can stay alive at outskirt despite being at Private grade.
Either he must have not careful enough or has the bad luck to come across a powerful monster.
Seeing the condition of Armor he wearing, it is probably a Corporal grade monster that had killed him because only corporal grade monster could damage Grade 1 artifact this much.
looking at corps, it seems to be day old and was killed quite brutally seeing broken and splintered bones here and there.
Covering my clothes, I picked out shoes near the body, thank god the shoes were not attached to the body or I wouldn't have emoved even if they were Grade 1 shoe type artifact.
Seeing faint teeth marks on them, some monster must remove them to chew and left them here after having it's fun. I stored them at my backpack, I currently can operate more than two Grade 1 artifact, I will only able to activate them when I reached the Specialist Grade.
When I looked at Rhea, I saw her rummaging the dusty backpack. The backpacks look fine except for some dirt on it.
Throwing out useless things, she wore a backpack on her shoulders, without wasting any time we left the scene silently after burning the body.
If I was back in westblood, I would have definitely buried the bodies but here I don't have the luxury to do that.
We didn't judge each other taking things from the dead body because we need them, even if I didn't need it, I still would have taken it to sell it later.
We walked in comfortable silence without talking, both of us not is mood talk after seeing the body.
Seeing that body made me realize the cold hard reality of this realm, being in outskirts doesn't mean you won't come across any Corporal level monster.
Every step has to be cautious, lest you get noticed by the dangerous monster, we change our course a little after seeing the body, we were little inside the forest when we were traveling but now we were walking in the boundary of wasteland and forest for the safety.
Ashlyn also controlled herself seeing our mood, she still flew way and ate unknown things but this time she stayed within my vision range.
Hours passed by soon it is afternoon but we did not see the shadow of the person.
We expected this, the area of this realm is very large, not seeing the single person normal but still, I hoped that we will come across some person but that didn't happen.
Soon the passed and next come but that was also without any result.
After dinner Rhea and I studying the map, "This small lake here it is nearly outside of the forest, it is a best possible spot for any large group to gather, it has water and monsters they can hunt for food." Rhea said.
What she said right, it is the closest spot where large people could gather, ''What you said right but it would take us four to five days to reach there." I said.
We discuss it some more before deciding to walk toward the small lake from tomorrow.

After we finished eating, I pack the camp and started our journey towards the small lake.
That is the perfect spot for any large group to stay as it is abundant in everything.
The one good thing happen to me yesterday afternoon that my mana had reached 75% purity, after 65%, every increase in mana became very difficult, my mana purity reached this high only because I entered in this space realm.
I am just happy that my mana purity had reached 75%, those who have 75% percent mana purity are considered elite in the republic because very few could make their mana this pure.
I thought it would take me near week reach at least one week but It happened in three days.
But soon the scene of three Private grade evolvers killing Corporal level monsters appeared in my mind and I became sober from my happiness.
In front of them, I am nothing, any one of them can kill me with a single move and seeing the power of their skills, I am sure their mana purity must be 90% percent or above.
"Rustle!" we heard the rustle of leaves and soon pure white python appears in front of us.
It is about four meters in length and wide enough that its mouth can easily bite my head off.
I took a step back, as usual, sensing its aura which is the peak of Specialist Grade like Rhea.
While walking toward the monster she activated her great sword and also summoned her panda monster.
Her greatsword is only one meter in length but it is wide my palm, I got quite startled when I saw her weapon of choice, girls normally used swords and knives and very used other weapons.
It is a perfect weapon for her as she had no specific power except for enhancement in defense and strength.
She and her panda monster both attacked the white python same time, it got little startled first but didge both attacks smooths.
In the past two days, we come across many monsters, Private Grade will be handled by me and Specialist grade by Rhea.
This why python is unusually fast, I am not worried though, I know rhea is much stronger than she is showing.
The python craftily tried to spray poison on her but rhea countered it with her broad sword expertly as there was no way to dodge.
''Bam!" Python monster hit panda's paw, python had overlooked the panda looking at its slowness but this panda nimbly sneaks beside it and attacked with the paw.
The snake had controlled itself mid-air and dodge Rhea's sword which was coming from the behind.
As the battle raged on python got hit many times but did not get seriously injured.
Its been only fifteen minutes seen fight had and would be over in ten minutes, she has been holding back till now to find if this monster has hidden ability, once she is sure that monster had used all its ability, she will attack it with her full might.
''Unh" I got quite surprised seeing when that white python had suddenly increased its speed and attacked rhea.
She was startled but she barely able to survive that blow, really! One cant judge this realms monsters too early.
Rhea and white snake begin to fight in earnest while stone Panda stood in a side alone waiting for a chance to attack.
I put up a little more distance fight and myself, I didn't want to repeat yesterdays mistake.
Yesterday when Rhea and specialist stage monster was fighting, that monster suddenly attacked me, although I had put distance between me and fight it was not enough.
Seeing I was easy to target, it attacked me. I would have died or at least got have fatally injured if not for stone panda saving me at last moment.
It has been nearly half an hour rhea started fighting the white python, it is longest fight had fought rhea in front of me, usually, she killed monster within twenty minutes but it got over thirty minutes.
I used to think of myself as talented when I created the first seal of supreme combat technique and I was nine heavens when I compared myself with Sarah and Jim, who are the same age as but had an organization backing them.
But I got heard reality checks in this world, first by those three from the central continent who could easily skip the two grade of combat power and then with rhea who at least created four seals supreme combat exercise.
Although she did not tell specifically how many seals she had created I can guess by her fighting prowess and that's not the most shocking thing, she told many people of the same age as she created more seals than her especially those from the organization.
She even told me one interesting secret that she come to know by accident, she said no one can seem to create the tenth seal before age of twenty, no matter how much they try.
That is why she became so shocked when I told her private grade evolver skipping two grades and probability of them creating more than ten seals.
I sometimes feel ashamed seeing Rhea killing all the powerful monsters and I promise myself that I will use every chance to become a stronger, no matter how dangerous that is.
"Thud!" rheas sword decapitated monster while I was lost in my thinking.
She uses quite a crafty plan to kill that snake.
Sneakily her stone panda had gripped the python's tail, making it immovable for a moment and used this chance to kill the snake in one move, it is quite an efficient kill.
She quickly removes the core from the monster and we walk after lighting a fire to the monsters corps.
As we were walking Ashlyn swiftly flew away from my shoulder on the tree front of us after seeing wild fruit on the tree.
She quickly swipes the fruit off the tree with quick precision and started to eat with relish.
I didn't say anything seeing she wouldn't listen to me, no matter how many times I told her not to eat any unknown fruit.
But as we were walking I suddenly stopped on my track as I felt something with my bond with Ashlyn.
''What happened?" Rhea asked vigilantly while looking around, I didn't answer her as Ashlyn suddenly went inside me.
My mana begins to drain at the quick speed as she went inside, I turned extremely happy seeing this because I know what is happening.
I Am Leveling Up!
