Victory was what I desired to attain, too. After I asked, the priestess agreed to show me around the many guilds of the different (fighting) jobs of the Guild's headquarters. The priestess finally was done with her never-ending waving after her colleagues left. I stood beside her, on the side of the street, where the carriages didn't pass. With the wind rustling and blowing through my hair, both the priestess and I didn't stay idle for more than a few seconds before the priestess opened her mouth: "Shall…

My outing already came to an end. Under today's bright sun and shades, the party left the dark woods, the spot where they usually hunted, to regain the safety of human settlements. They were from the capital, so, at dawn, after they left the big city, they had to stop by some little village nearby their hunting spot in order to get the gear they needed ready. Today, when heading back home, they didn't stop by the little village. Directly going to the safety of the bigger city, they left the forest on…

The fight had settled down. The goblins were dead. They had been killed. Then, the tense atmosphere relaxed a little. The damage dealer fooled around too much, so he was called out. The tank, huffing and puffing, was exhausted and silent, like the sorceress, who wasn't so talkative in the first place. The only party member still on "duty" was the priestess. Thanks to her Healing Magic, she took care of the party's wounds before the monster hunters' job was thoroughly finished there. Rushing to the…

In the meantime, when my eyes went to watch how the damage dealer was faring, I cocked my head to the side. Was that part of the adventurer's plan, too? Laughing like a crazy, mad person, the damage dealer didn't quite run back to the team, but rather met his goblins head-on, hysterically laughing and frowning. The long black sword he held kept hacking away at the two goblins as if he tried to cut himself a path through them. "Heh-heh-heh!" he went on laughing nervously. "You… goblins! Take this! Ha!…

Surprisingly, at some point, the leader of the team decided to speak. At once, the party came to a stop, and we were told that we should talk about "it." Everyone came to a stop including me, then. The monster hunters sure seemed to hold their leader in great esteem: our whisperings ceremoniously ceased. "I don't know about that cheat ability the little man is selling us… but he's right all the same." Those words were what marked the beginning of his solemn speech. And thus, the man talked. With a…

We could be expecting our guests—no, maybe we were the guests—anytime, now. The chattering of the whole team was brought down to silence by the leader, at some point, and before I knew it, we had plunged into the dark sea of darkness and trees. With the leader keeping up the front, having both his sword and shield readied for foes, we all followed behind. More or less. The tank was right behind the leader, meekly marching on and groaning his fear away at every snapping twig. The damage dealer coolly…

The Party. They were five in total. Five monster-hunters. Today, a monster joined them. The six of them together, they were the Party. With those fine numbers, the adventurers could go out of the capital. Where to? Well, the destinations varied depending on the season, time of the day, and stuff as there was a lot of stuff to go about when you were a monster hunter. That applied to the Party, too. But anyway, they left the city. A plethora of different training grounds could welcome the group of five,…

With the steady flow of time going still, more days passed and we, today, attended our art magic cursus classes. What a pain that was. Then again, I got to spend time with Cetha the elf, so I could see the bright side of things and bear it… but today, that would change. When, as bored as I was, I continued to chat about this and that, talking to either myself, the elven princess when she had time to listen to me, or no one at all, at some point, the grandmaster who taught us probably felt as annoyed as I…

Thus do many skills lead to victory. That's what I needed. To explore the outside world first, to be stimulated and learn about it all, then to absorb as many skills as possible in order to… well, be allowed to live. To avoid dying, and to kill before I be killed. That is how, for as long as being a student in the aristocratic academy was plainly useless, I decided that I wouldn't attend anymore. And I knew I should be going out. So maybe I would. Then again, maybe I won't, I thought. At least, I get…

Today was the thirty-third day ever since I walked the earth. That's me, and after living so long, I was granted a name. Rather than telling you I was life in its purest form and that nobody was more alive than I, now, I can tell you that I am Aoi. My name is Aoi. In the hero's tongue, it means "blue" or "bluish." A certain human princess bestowed such a name upon me, the unique monster-type creature, referring to the deep bluish faint light in my eyes. Since I had no name to go around with, I complained…
