He managed to get forest and earth magic as well as ice magic. Why he didn't try to get all of the elements is because he doesn't wanna burn the forest down, and he has a hard time imagining lighting and because he couldn't think of any more elements except for light and darkness which he tries to get but failed.
"Ah. I forgot about wind." Aariv said. He focuses mana and imagines wind into the shape of a shape arrow. After a few minutes, he has finally done it.

After obtaining the skill, Aariv pokes his head out of the tree hollow, he took a look around. If he sees anything new, he will [Appraisal] and it will be a monster that could squash him. Then, something caught his eyes. Something green, and small.
He walks out of the tree hollow and active [Stealth] to get a better look. He flew toward the thing, his wings not making a sound and he finally saw it.

[Vine Whip] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
[Novice Forest Magic Mastery] Lv. 1 ---> [Novice Forest Magic Mastery] Lv. 2
It panics and before it could attract attention it was silenced by Aariv grabbing its face and look at it in the eyes. When he saw that the goblin's eyes became cloudy, he let go of the goblin's face and stop using mana to keep root wrapping around the goblin, and let it go slack.
"Get up." Aariv order.
The goblin struggle to get the root off it and after a moment it got up, stumbling. "When I appraise it, it said that goblins group up, so this goblin could belong to a group of goblins." Aariv. "It also said that they could create a settlement." This was interesting to him and he wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Aariv looks at the goblin. "Do you belong to a settlement?" He said. The goblin nod. "Take me to them." The goblin nod and began walking, swaying and Aariv follow it.

Aariv sigh. When he followed the goblin, there had been some monsters that try to kill it. Some like the fanged rat could be killed and some were too powerful and he had to grab the goblin and hide it.
The goblin kept walking. "Stop." The goblin stop.
[Hypnosis] - Lv. 6 ---> [Hypnosis] Lv. 7
Aariv ignores the notification and looks on. He saw a camp that had crude-built walls made of dirt and sticks with huts being visible. Aariv then kills the goblin and hides the body in bushes.
Defeated [Goblin] - Lv. 5
Experience is awarded.
Aariv flew up to a tree that completely overlooks the camp and observes it. Goblins were walking around, eating, picking their noses, and scratching their bum.
He spots other monsters in the forest. However, they were noticeably weaker than the other monster but were about as strong as he was.
Aariv forms an arrow made of ice and launch it on a horned rabbit that was eating a dead horned rabbit. It hit the rabbit's head, killing it.

The Big Yoink: A Smol Detective Story
This is another fanfic set in the universe of They Are Smol, a delightful series of stories which you should totally go read right now if you haven’t. It’s a sequel to my own The Smol Detective. In this story, Oscar Williams and his adopted alien family have to determine the guilt or innocence of another human and her two alien friends. The trio stands accused of stealing a sacred relic, and if it isn’t found soon an ancient religious cold war could turn very hot indeed… Formal Disclaimer Type Thing: I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only u/tinyprancinghorse. TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a Website should you require more Smol Shenanigans in your life. Which you do, so get over there and read it. The cover art for this sequel again comes courtesy of the mighty Akella, and they deserve lots of headpats from giant aliens because they are awesome.

Devin created the Black Boar Band, his very own guild, to get moderately rich and make enough of a name for himself that people might pause on the streets when they see him.

During a disastrous Contract, Devin and his ragtag band of people find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy involving his hated rival, Bronn of Bronn's Buyable Blades. As they dig deeper into this conspiracy, they soon discover there is more to this land than anyone previously thought, or imagined. And perhaps they are not the first to inhabit it.
