《Land of Ilragorn》Chapter 26- Goodbye Forest
Advertisement
I’m standing at the top of the mountain, silently crying, feeling like a should scream.
Every single goblin in my sight is dead, I killed them myself, even without the boost I could kill a king goblin, so it wasn’t hard.
But, I guess the movies were true, revenge doesn’t solve anything, I still feel like I died as well.
They all saw me murder goblins, getting slower with every kill, I even did some of it in front of them.
Dad got out of his chains as soon as I killed the goblin kings, and he did get the villagers unchained, but he was surrounded by goblins so they couldn’t do anything, they just had to wait for me to kill them in my rage.
When everything was done, I saw them going down the mountain in mom’s direction, then I had a thought, this is a fantasy world, she’s stronger than most, if not all, human beings from my world, what if she survived?
I rushed down, faster than I ever have before, activating flight and nose-diving straight down the mountain.
I passed everybody easily, and made my way down faster than a falcon, with the combined force of gravity and the force of flight I made my way down.
I saw her, stuck on a rock, I used analyze on her to see if she was alright, then a lot more of me died.
Corpse
I slowed down and stopped right in front of her, she had scrapes all over, I couldn’t tell if it was her red feathers or her blood, but she was missing a lot of feathers.
This side of the mountain must have not had a lot of rain, because the way down wasn’t muddy, it was rocky.
This time I did scream, I don’t know how long, my voice gave out somewhere, but I still stayed in the position, it was sunset, barely cloudy, aren’t good things supposed to happen at times like this, don’t screw with me world.
No.
So far this world has given me all I asked for, powers, a family, a sponsor, two teachers, and what have I given the world, nothing, now that I have everything I could have ever wanted, the worlds asking for rent, and I’ve probably been overdue since the first month, no my first week, since my lucky streak has been going ever so well. Now the worlds working with Karma, something I’ve only seen the good side of, but it’s showing me it’s true colors now, I’ve taken lives, it’s taking connections from me.
My inner monologue was interrupted by the rest of the long-legged tribe, who as soon as they saw her, and definitely used analyze on her, all put their heads down, and the ones closest to her started crying.
I heard Ruekra say, “we just got her back.”
Her words were relevant to everybody.
After about ten minutes Url picked her up, then we walked home.
It was a different location than last time, but this whole forest looks the same, so who knows anything.
I used earth removal to dig her grave.
Then we manually had to put the dirt back.
It resulted in a crater, but we could put the tombstone in the middle.
And then I sat in front, and looked at it, and looked at it, and looked at it.
People passed around me, I didn’t know who, I wasn’t looking at them.
It was already dark when I noticed it was nighttime, but I’m not going to move anyway.
Then something hit me in the back of the head, it was a monkey, it’s status read lesser tree behemoth, it looked confident for a LVL 15.

I let it stay, then it missed me and hit moms grave, it died with a peck, I got climb as a skill, then it’s friends came up to me dumbly, looking for revenge, I let them stay for a while, but they saw their buddy get me to fight by touching my mom’s grave, so eventually climb was level five.
I needed to do something else, so I checked my evolutions.
"Evolution Path 1: War Demon Chocobo" "Evolution Path 2: War Demon Kweh" "Evolution Path 3: Magician Chocobo" "Evolution Path 4: Magician Kweh" "Evolution Path 5:Blocked until Evolution"
What happens when I switch from one species to another?
"You will become a hybrid, a hybrid is a part one species, and part another, for example: if you went with War demon Chocobo you would get +60 to all stats per opponent, but if you went with Magician Chocobo, then you would keep the +50 buff, and get a tier upgrade to all your skills."
Well looks like I’m either going new or magician, as those are my only two choices, I mean 60 is nice, but with magician, I could upgrade all my skills for free, I’m probably going to go with magician, skills are important, but they take time.
And if I’m going to take what this world gives to me, it isn’t going to try to kill me, what’s around me is more likely, if I’m going to take it, then I’m going to need to be stronger and faster, to be less naive, to not hesitate, to make sure no one dies.
10 days later
We haven’t moved, which seems to be keeping the villagers on edge, apparently, they move almost every three days, but since I’ve been killing things, we haven’t had to move.
Until it happened.
Something I wouldn’t kill showed up.
A mother dragon, with two of what looks like adolescents.
What’s worse is she looked pregnant.
The villagers tried to run, but I said I would make her leave.
“Big dragon and her children, please leave.”
I wasn’t over Mom’s death, but I could still use a cute voice because of my age.
However the dragon didn’t care, “Ohhhh, a snack, mom can I eat this one?”
“Sure, honey.”
I smacked it with my wing not trying to kill it, and I didn’t.
But they were surprised.
Not using a cute voice anymore, “Please leave.”
Then the mother dragon looked constipated, and then two eggs popped out.
“Oopsie looks like I made a nest here, not leaving, and look at all the food around here, hmmm umm, get them, my children.”
I questioned my morals one last time before I decided to kill them, the mom was only two levels ahead of me, not too high, I could easily beat them, but Incha told them what the dragon said, and the villagers were running, I used telepathy on the village leader, an old man, he was still really fit though.
(“Why are you running, I could kill them.”)
“Kill them and leave us alone, Yippee, I haven’t run in a week, this feels great.”
All the villagers were smiling, happy to leave the area.
Happy to leave me.
(“What about my moms grave?”)
“What about it, it’s a grave, you have to leave it eventually.”
But, but, but, I’m still grieving.
I looked towards Url, he was running too, not smiling, but running.
His eyes caught mine, and then he looked forward.
So that’s how it is huh.
I was a nuisance to keep you from running, the world is taking things away from me one by one.

So I walked over to the grave and sat down.
“Oh, how bold, begging for us to eat you, eh.”
“This is my moms grave, you can have children here, I won’t mess with you, and you won’t mess with me, do we have a deal.”
“Hmmm, Oh let me see, let me ask my children, will you two be dears and give him our answer.”
“No.” “Nope”
“And there you go, my child's snack.”
She was a regular fire dragon, so you know what happened.
She burned the land, she burned my mom’s grave, but I didn’t have the will to fight her, the long-legged tribes' smiles were in my head.
Then another dragon came in and did a flying jump kick to the other dragon, it was the other dragon mother.
Then the baby dragon, the last of them, ran up and kicked the adolescent child on the left.
The mother dragon held the newly pregnant one down with its foot by the neck and started shooting fireballs at it, while the baby ran up to the other adolescent and did a backflip kick, into a mudball.
The mother and the adolescent on the left were still alive, but the adolescent on the right is the one I slapped, so the baby killed it.
The newly pregnant one kicked off, and then started flying, but the mother caught its foot and then slammed it into the ground, then what looked like a controlled inferno at it, the mother dragon was blind, but it definitely knew when the dragon died.
The baby and adolescent circled each other, and then charged, the adolescent had its mouth open, so the baby slid under it, kicked its stomach, then shot a mudball at it from behind.
Next, the baby climbed on to the adolescent and bit it’s neck, easily killing it.
Both were done, and then walked over to me, and stopped in front of me.
“I heard what you said, is it true that that was your mothers grave?”
“Yes.”
“Well then our quarrel is over, you have felt pain enough for me to feel sorry for you, you have nothing here for you anymore, say goodbye to all you care for, and then head south, the forest ends there and a race's town not too far away from that.”
“Why?”
“Why what?”
“Why would that dragon do that, surely it could have made a nest anywhere else.”
“We are dragons, the strongest species on land and air, with nothing to stop us, as well as the mother evolution, why wouldn’t we give birth where there is plenty of food?”
I didn’t reply, and the dragons left.
It was only me, and then I started walking, first to the Suvunkta cave.
I reached it in less than an hour, still, it’s past noon.
I told Suvunkilbub the story.
“I’m sorry for your loss, Ilragorn is a harsh place, she will hopefully be going to a much simpler world.”
“Thanks, Suvunkilbub, I’m going to a races city after this, whatever that is, and I don’t know when I’ll be coming back.”
“Don’t worry about that, I’m used to being lonely, and you will probably keep my mind entertained for another hundred years.”
“Thank you, now can I say goodbye to Cyko?”
“Not right now, no, you actually overflowed him with MP, he’s started to have primal urges to get out of the dungeon and spread his terror, you would need to learn to control your MP to see him.”
“Oh, I didn’t know that, well that’s sad, can you tell him goodbye for me, and thank you for everything he has done.”
“Of course.”
“Then I’m off.”
I started walking to the mountain were the old coot lives, he probably won’t care that I’m leaving as he was pushing me off the mountain when I left, but maybe invisibrat will care.
I reached the mountain and flew up, the old man already knew I was coming.
“So, did you kill him, and what title did you get from it.”
“I actually haven’t checked my status, though I said yes to copy Entity Number.”
“Then look now.”

"Stats: HP: 5191, STR: 5972, SPD: 11103, VIT: 6057, MP: 5827, INT: 6433"
“Goblin Slayer, it’s a special title.”
“Better be, you killed a divine beast, that’s not something any adolescent could do, what does it do?”
“Better night vision and I fight easier in dark places, which I guess is decent.”
“If it’s a special title, you’ll see the boost, you’ll definitely see it.”
I told him my story, to which he gave me a bird hug.
“It’s what my owner did when it happened to me.”
I was in shock, as well as getting this.
"You have gained 100% trust from Entity #585215699321680521" "Would you like to use Copy entity number LVL 5."
Yes.
"You have gained skill: Shock LVL 1 and 2599 HP."
“I just got copy entity number from you.”
“What!?!”
“It also works from a hundred percent trust, I didn’t tell you that did I.”
“No you didn’t, what did you get from it?”
“Shock is it good.”
“Good, by itself, no, but it’s tier three skill is decent, and then it’s tier five is my second best skill.”
“What is your first best.”
“The tier one is electric boost, my best skill is godspeed, dodges automatically and counterattacks.”
“That sounds like it’s copied from my world.”
“Probably was, the one true god is really bad at skills.”
“Okay, can I say goodbye to you and Invisibrat.”
“Sure goodbye and survive, Invisibrats behind you.”
“I don’t like that name.”
I turned around and there he was, just standing there, calmly.
“Well, then goodbye Invisibrat.”
“Goodbye Kwehzalcoatl, let me catch up, don’t get stronger to fast.”
At the ending of his words I flinched, I have heard them before.
“Yeah, goodbye.”
I headed south, like the dragon said, and reached the end of the forest, it was nighttime, and the buff hit me, it wasn’t anything crazy like doubling my stats, but I could easily tell something was different.
Before I left the forest edge I stopped looked at the outside of it.
It was plains, with green, long grass, just swaying in the wind.
It is my first time out of a forest in four months, I’m going to make it count.
“Goodbye forest.”
