Pshhui~

I was quickly sapping the vitality of the tree I was holding As it weakened I was able to easily push it down to the ground

Wham!

It fell doith a loud thud I repeated the same process with other trees until I had several pieces of tiainst each other to form what looked like a small pyramid My intention was to make an Native American style teepee

”Fireshock”

I used the spell to lightly burn the leaves and twigs on the floor Fireshock wasn't very powerful so there was no real co and disinfecting possible bacteria I picked out soe leaves from outside and lay them down on the floor to rabbed them they lost their vitality and color, but they still did an ok job

I then decided to look to its defenses, I chose to ic

”Inferno!”

[Inferno level 1 ➢ 2]

An intense flaen The result was a hole which was about 7~8 h to hopefully offer some sort of protection I expected the 5 meters would be too far for the termites to jump and the heat from the inferno hadit very smooth and slippery

I waited forwith inferno to co I then picked up soe to be able to cross The result was a small fortress which was virtually ie froe to e round support bea the bridge 90 degrees, she could isolate herself from the other side

I then went back to fetch her

'Huh? Where did she go?'

She was nowhere to be found and it was almost sunset, I worried she would be attacked by monsters

Kueeeeeeek!

The baby dragon cried in hunger, I threw it a piece of ter up on o back to sleep

I started walking around, searching for her when I heard so in the distance

'Ah right I never asked if she was thirsty!'

I remembered that all the water I had squeezed fro towards the strea in the water 'Oh, would she be embarrassed because I saw her?'

I turnedto look away

”Who are you?” theto cover herself up at all

”Oh! It's o for a wash”

I si on the side of the stream

”Aaaaah! I'm Naked! Look away!”

I turned around, giving her the chance to get dressed

'Oh, seeer attracted to wo the body of a beautiful naked woman I didn't feel any emotions, it's really too unfortunate If this had happened in my previous life, I would have shouted, Lucky!!! But now, it just felt like I was observing a nice painting, devoid of any sexual e to my species

”Mister I'm dressed”

Her clothes stuck to her wet skin, e her curvaceous body

I lead the way letting her follow at a distance

'Was her name Ian?'

I so her that, but because I wasn't able to speak I would probably never call her by name

There were s in the forest, thankfully because of my Lifesteal, none would approach me

”Ouch! Go away! Go away!”

She was beating back the bugs, I hadn't bothered to implement any countermeasures for them back in the teepee

'I wonder if it will be ok?'

By the time we arrived to the snalling her to cross Once she was on the other side I pushed the bridge over, effectively cutting off all access fro some ti them in the hole

”Fireball”

After a few spells, the ti another layer of defense

'This should be safe for a while'

Having ensured her safety in the teepee, I was ready to move on to the next step As I walked away I noticed Ian staring at me until I melted into the darkness

Crouched down, I was staring at a huge et

When I had originally co down from the tunnel entrance I had seen 3 of thesethe teepee's location and was constantly scouting, after the white ter their comrade's bodies back to the hill

These three mud hills must be the homes of the teroal was to take them out Termites are a kind of insect so coexistence isn't possible, the only solution is extermination and if it also provides some experience points , then all the better However, I was unsure of their nu in a little reconnaissance

It would be a huge help If I could learn their fighting habits and I had previously seen thereat chance

'Found some'

Even during the night they continued to fight They would fight in s with some airborne ones as well

'See termites'

(Author Note – Terer than cockroaches but their habits are al which is different from an ant's hierarchy)

I used my Identification skill to observe their statusThe land ter counterparts were stronger from level 25-29 The airborne ones also had an ability to spit out a certain liquid Having once witnessed it burn through another termite's exoskeleton I concluded it e is around 50-100 so if I' 3 or 4 it would be hard to stay alive

I opened up e
