1439 A Meeting With A Dragon

BOOOM!

"HONK HONK! GIANT COCOON COMING THROUGH!"

I began to spear through the forest, destroying all the trees I saw. It was honestly quite fun, I can't believe I've ever had so much fun before. I don't know why I am having so much fun destroying trees, but I guess I was just overly bored. I lost myself in the slaughter of trees as I picked them up one by one and collected them inside of my Inventory. I was gonna use them to build something like… erm, a house, or I don't know what else.

Sadly killing trees doesn't give EXP so after a few minutes I stopped clowning around and looked around my surroundings. I quickly felt the presence of something. It seems it had been following me around since I began slaughtering trees and it hasn't been intimidated by my Chaotic Presence, which might mean it is pretty mighty.

"I know you're there, reveal yourself." I said rather boldly. Of course, I was just a giant purple-colored metallic cocoon with spikes on me, I couldn't really fear anything at this point.

And what seemed to be following me emerged from within a veil of illusion magic, a gigantic creature resembling a white dragon, but covered on white fur and golden horns over his head spiraling upwards, with sharp aquamarine eyes.

"Children of Chaos… You dare step into my domain and destroy my precious forest! I shall destroy you at all cost! You're an alien summoned into this world by those damned humans… I've been keeping the elves safe this entire time against those damned humans… but to think they would kidnap Elfina and force her to summon this monster!" He roared with the voice of a dignified man, the glorious (and furry) dragon was a guardian of the forest or whatever. I could had guessed. He would give me a nice amount of EXP but now that I think about it he must be worried about Elfina which he just named. I shouldn't kill him then.

"Wait a second, we are buddies! I am actually protecting her. She summoned me here and they tried to execute her because I was a giant caterpillar and not a handsome Japanese high school student or something…" I said while sighing in sadness.

"W-Wha… You're not a foe?!" He asked. "Then why have you destroyed so many trees?! Don't you realize it is destroying the entire ecosystem of the forest, you utter fool?!"

"I WAS BORED!" I cried. "Don't get me wrong, I am all in for the green and stuff, but come on, let me roll around for a little bit, I mean I got the skill and all!"

Ding!

[The [Roll: Lv1] Skill Level has increased to Level 2]

Heheh! I even leveled up Roll. It is a powerful Skill that let me roll around over any bastard that gets in front of me. I can use it with my giant, metallic body covered in spikes and really fuck up some shit if I want to. It's pretty awesome, isn't it? Yeah, I know!

"Skill? You're telling me you've been rolling around to level up the [Roll] Skill or something?!" He asked furiously. "A-Also… Are you the one responsible for having slain the Demon Lord I sensed in the skies near the Kingdom? Also I just heard from the spirits that the Kingdom was in ruins! D-Did you do all of that?!" The giant white dragon asked me.

"Yep that was me… Haha, I overdid it, right? I know, no need for praises." I laughed.

"Y-You're really a monster! And I am not going to praise you, you've done a bit too much, you know? The Empire was allied with the Kingdom, and the other allied Nations might all attack you if they know you're the one behind this all! Also the Demons will probably know the summoned hero did this… How many enemies you've made in just your first day of being summoned here?!" He asked.

"Not as many as I have in my original world, let me tell you that…! Anyways, you spoke something about the System. Do you have it as well?" I asked.

"Eh? System? What's that?" He asked. "You mean Status? That's the Soul Book that everybody has. When someone is born the world permeates their souls with World's Essence and we are able to develop our powers and abilities through our Soul Books. Humans call them Status… So even you have one!"

"Yeah… By the by, do you know where can I go to another world? Preferably one named Genesis? Also, if I travel to another world can I keep my Soul Book?" I asked.

"Wha… you want to return to your own world, Summoned Hero?" Asked the Dragon. He looked into the surroundings as if thinking. "Well… it is possible. You could go to another world through the Ancient Bridge of Cosmos, which was made by the Gods of Old… All those have perished by now, mostly… And the ones that have "survived" are merely reanimated carcasses of the Vile Miasma…" He said. "And yes, the Soul Book is now part of your very essence, it wont go away even if you move elsewhere than this plane of existence."

"Awesome! Where can I go to the Ancient Bridge of Cosmos?" I asked.

"I have no idea."

"Eh?"

"What?"

"How come you don't know?!"

The White Dragon looked at me boringly.

"I may seem old but I am actually the youngest and last of my race. I am the descendant of the Gods of Old… I am the last Protector of Nature and Light, but I am just a youthful soul. I may find where this bridge is, but it will take me time as I must investigate the ancient annals left by my parents in the Akashic Library…" He sighed. "Nonetheless, we should stop talking by now, we got company."

And then, we felt a strong, dark presence lurking around us. When I looked above the sky, there was what seemed to be… Ugh, not again.

Another army of demons.

…Wait, no, this is good, we are a LitRPG again, this is EXP!
