Chapter 3 - 3 Subjugation of monsters (Part 1) (1/2)
”What should we do first Aurora”
As I asked, examined the ambiance, because of the appearance of my surroundings it seems to be a forest, not so dense because the sunlight easily reaches the ground or it may also be that it is on the banks.
Because of the position of the sun, it is early in the morning, near 10, for now I see no difference with my previous world, there is still only one sun, the gravity seems to be the same and I have no discomfort for the atmosphere. My new body may also be adapted to the environment ...

[It seems that you already have a goal to accomplish. Although a goblin is a low level monster in your current state it can result a challenge. It is a monster almost your current height, can throw stones or use rudimentary tools to attack. Individually they cannot be considered a danger for an adventurer with some experience, the problem is that they act in a group and for your appearance you would surely prefer to die than fall into their hands]
Listening to Aurora's explanation, I concentrated so as not to lose any detail, but when I get to the last part, surely my face became more and more pale for every word I felt that the blood was going to my feet and also a chill ran through me thorn dorsal. I remembered that certainly in the fantasy stories in my world they were little perverted monsters and bastards, who captured women to use them as a breeding instrument. Just thinking about it, I squeezed my buttocks by reflex, without a doubt death was a better destination in my opinion.
Although I felt that my legs were shaking, and not for fear of death, I decided to prepare myself as best I could. I took out the [Weapon Scroll-I] to use it, by putting it in my hand and thinking about using it, a couple of options appeared in my mind like the type I wanted in the weapon.
Thinking about which weapon to use were the option that caught my attention with the spear, sword and bow, I think these would be the most common and easy to use. The first, although it allowed me to attack at a medium range, its length with the size of my body would be disproportionate or it would not make much difference that a sword losing its greatest advantage. The sword also had similar problems, also adding the fact that my zero experience in combat would make things difficult for me, because the first problem could be solved with a short sword to make it suitable for my size, for the second problem I could do nothing. As for the bow, my experience with him was 0, and without arrows it became almost useless. His advantage was his long range with which he would avoid the danger to a greater extent and if things got difficult he could easily escape.
Reason told me that the bow was the best option, the safest. It is not considered coward to use it to fight with him since a certain degree of skill was required to take advantage of it. It was a respectable weapon, but the problem is that I do not possess that ability, I have never taken one in my hands and with less than 3 hours I do not think I can practice enough to hit the target ... also, a part of me believed that the Determining a while back would be a lie for putting me in a safe place. Yes, I certainly did not regret not being able to use a bow and my thoughts that I should have taken some classes in my original world just because it was always good to know not to do it ... it was that. Clenching your teeth select the option of short sword and single edge.
The scroll in my hands shone and when the parchment disappeared it was gone and I replaced it with a short sword. Quickly use evaluation to identify it.
[Black Moon-I]
A sword cuts with a single-edged blade, very sharp. It was created from black metal bathed in moonlight for years. Its bright black tone is the creator's desire to resemble the glow of the moon.
Skills: [Quick Cut-I] [Durandal-I]
Now let's move on to [Skill-J Scroll], it would be great if the swordsman skill could, but unfortunately this seems to be a development skill and this scroll doesn't seem to be able to grant it.
After looking at the list of skills for a while, two of them that were simple and looked good for the situation I was about to face caught my attention.
[Light Feet-J]
Passive
Increase agility and dexterity in the movement of the feet to avoid attacks and put yourself in a good position to counterattack.
[J-load]
Active
Increase in linear speed and force on the first stroke after use.
This time I will have to choose something that will give me a better way to survive in a fight by avoiding being hurt. It is useless to have powerful skills if I collapse with a simple attack.
Having made preparations with everything I had available I began to walk in the forest in search of the first enemy in this world. With the sword [black moon] tied to the left on my waist and the [knife] in the center in my chest with straps that were included I continued forward.
Were left 1:40 minutes to complete the mission and was a little nervous, did not want to start with the left foot and fail to start my adventure in this world, I worried that I had no experience fighting let alone killing something, I no even killed a chicken in my world. But was motivated that by doing so I could unlock system functions that would be of great help, giving me another reason not to fail and although Aurora told me that system functions would appear again in other missions if I could not complete this one, it would take time and they will surely be of greater difficulty.
The most important thing is that if I try to do only things that are in my comfort zone the level of my soul would grow very slowly. Aurora did not mention it, but could give me an idea that the challenges between more difficult and more pressure reciprocally caused me to advance in the soul would be greater, being this way, in moments of life and dead the development suffered would be exponential.
