《The Compassionate Killer and his travels in a new world》Chapter 2: Godlike Buffs
Advertisement
I just finished making my small makeshift shelter. It's not like I plan to live my life here, after all I still have that mission. But seeing this forest I think that the reason I'm here is to be somewhat like a peacekeeper.
"Alright"
Finally it's done, The shelter has a decent distance from the ground and also a big enough living space for me. Looking back at how I did this I still feel a bit different. I mean I finished this in a single day but it's like I did work equivalent to a week of hard labor for ten men. Well this is all thanks to the blessing? that the weird being called me(I don't call him a god because he said so himself that he isn't one). Anyway I found out after defeating the beast from before about my increased strength.
It happened like this...
After slaying the beast I went to start making my shelter. At first I planned for a simple one hidden high in the tree's. I looked for a spot and started gathering materials. I was ready with a knife the whole time as I looked for missing lumber. Then I don't know if it's a coincidence or not but a huge tree suddenly started falling. I tried running but I realized that I was surrounded by a pack of the same beast that I just killed.
Closing my eyes I was readying for my demise but then a miracle happened. As if I was made out of steel the gigantic tree split in two as it crashed down on me. What's more I didn't feel a thing, at that moment a thought came to mind.
[Could it be?]
I thought to myself as the beast all pounced at me, testing out my hypothesis I accepted all their attacks. And then when their attacks reached the sound of iron hitting steel was heard.

The beast' attacks all hit me and yet I felt nothing. There were no visible wounds only that my clothes were slightly torn. I was amazed and a grin fromed in my face as I massacered the pack of beast. After that I hung their corpeses high up in the tree's this way the other predators would go here and not hunt me. I then picked up half of the giant tre and headed to the spot I wanted to build my shelter.
The spot was a bit too small so I looked for a wider area which was also farther from the hanging beast carcasses. And after a whole days worth of work I finally finsihed my shelter.
"Then I guess tomorrow would be the day I prepare to look for a city huh"
As I rest in my soft beast skin mat I think about how I will begin my journey. I could make a beast skin jug but that would just be. It's not that I am picky but if I think about it now I didn't get any materials for making a jug a while ago. If I did I could start traveling tomorrow but...
Also using those carcasses is already a no go. I left them there for hours already who knows what predators came and took a bite of it. Using that as a jug is just plain idiotic, think about all the microorganisms that grew there coming from various other beast.
Just as I was about to fall asleep an idea flashed in my mind.
"Magic!"
I remember that this is not the same world I was in before. And if I think about it having a body like this is already weird enough magic is not impossible, am I right? Also if I remember correctly that weird being said that this was a world of magic. I'm not sure if that's true or not but meh. Anyway there should be magi in this world and the god would never put me in this world as a peace keeper without it. I mean if I were to go up against a mage with only my power then that would be my end, he obviously gave me magic... right?

"I knew something was up! yeah... there was also that problem"
While thinking if magic really was given to me I realized a major problem. It's that even if I was given high magic capabilities there is the problem about how to use it. If I remember correctly in the manga and light novel's I sometimes read to use magic one only needed to feel it in the atmosphere, sometimes it's just in your body waiting to be used through some weird incantation or the most laughable is imagination.
It's not like I'm saying it's stupid it's just that it feels more like a psychic ability than magic that's all. But the thought is still cool, I mean making a thunderstorm or a tornado out of ones imagination is something that would be pretty awesome if I do say so myself.
"So I should try meditating"
Though I am not a believer of the gods and what not after that meeting with the weird being I kinda started believeing in it. But I won't take back my word on the catholic people, I mean there was this being but he said that he wasn't god. I stay with my stance on this topic that god is a simple mental constuct unless I am convinced otherwise or proven wrong by that weird being but whatever people have their own personal beliefs.
"Alrigth breath in... breath out... breath in... breath out..."
I'm doing the meditating I learned from a shaolin priest once and I gotta hand it to him it's pretty darn relaxing. Although I can still only feel what I felt before it's still the same. But it's not like I was able to sense the prescence of people just by simply practicing for a day. In all honesty it took me quite a long time as I already said but still that training was just... The memories of that just makes me want ot die.
"Huh"
I let out a small voice as I felt something weird for a moment. It was like a presence but it wasn't. It was neither human, beast or anything of that matter. If I should describe it would be a peice of paper that can talk. Though it's voice was small and almost mute.
"There"
I felt it again this time coming from outside, I extend my sense to reach the outside and when I did I realized something. The direction the strange paper thin like presence is coming from the first beast I killed.
"It couldn't possibly be alive can it?"
I thought to myself but then I remembered a world of magic would have not normal beat but magic beast. And what would a magic beast always have? Magic! So that means I was successful at sensing magic? This is unbelievable! HAHAHA, with this I could already walk through the world, adding to my enhanced physical strength and abilites as well as magic I still have the talent I had since my last life.
