In the center of this world's largest continent, there was a mountain that no one dares to enter or even approach. Beyond a certain alt.i.tude, the meteoric changes dramatically.

In addition, the creatures called monsters that live in the mountain were represented by the rank system “S, A, B, C, D, E, F.” Any demons at the top would be called S creatures. It was said that only the best knights of the great country can repel the the monsters but can only do so by sacrificing themselves.

There were also monsters who exceed S rank in this this mountain.

I remembered the story that I heard a long time ago.

Why did I remember such a thing? In addition, the creatures called monsters that live in the mountain were represented by the rank system “S, A, B, C, D, E, F.” Ha ha ha… Haa… Please forgive me for the previous infidelity.

I wonder why I am in such a place.This was the result of me going crazy and running without looking ahead. Well, let's run while looking from now on. Do not get out of your mind. But I wasn't stupid. It was true. I noticed that I was near the mountain, almost at the center. I tried getting away instantly. I immediately went out of the forest and thought about looking for a nearby town…

But it seemed that I am just not lucky. There was a monster in front of me now. The monsters with disgusting hands and feet growing out of its body and a bipedal walking cat who wears boots on their feet, gloves on his hands, and standing upright. Do you recognize me as a prey? The cat was licking his lips. The fish may just be breathing…

– I'm not tasty?

I would like to say so, but no words came through. Why is the fish and cat coming in with me at the same time! Normally, the cat would attack the fish. Why is it coming towards me? Where did common sense go? I guess it's okay; awkward. It is troubling.

What a place this is…

What kind of demons are there in the mountains?

While thinking about such a thing, a cold sweat trickled down my cheeks. The two animals advance a little by little. Certainly, for the past two years, I have trained myself and fought with monsters. The two animals in front of me are not the monsters I'm used to fighting with.

Even if I decided to fight these monsters, I would die. I brought a little money with me, but I forgot to bring a sword. I was already rude enough to take some money. I can't take anymore… There is only one escape. If you cannot go down, the only other way to go is up. I immediately returned to the forest

Aiming at the mountain…

There were signs that the two creatures followed me from behind. I was driven by the urge to check behind, but I shook my mind and just ran. I ran through the forest with my legs moving as fast as possible. After a few seconds, suddenly, I fly sideways.

Painfully, my body smashed against the tree. the pain gently ran through my back. The cat approached me. It was dangerous. If I was going straight ahead, that nail would've penetrated my body. My body was trembling and rattling. I gradually dropped backward, but I immediately hit a tree and could not go back to the back any more.

– Oh, will I die in such a place?

Tears started to run down my cheeks. However, the two demons have not attacked in any way. Well, what do you think? The two monsters was not looking at me, but the thing behind me. Following that gaze, I saw behind me through the shade of the tree; there was a big “Dragon”. It was “Dragon.”

Let's say it again. It was “Dragon.”

It was a huge black dragon. The black dragon was staring at the two demons. The Black Dragon licks his lips as though he had found food. The two monsters escaped at once. The Black Dragon turned his eyes to me this time.

– You must die here as well.

In this situation, I could only laugh. I was prepared for death, but the Black Dragon left. I left from this place. For some time, I noticed that I was saved.

I was miraculously saved from the attacks of two monsters. I immediately tried to get away from this forest. But the two demons were walking around in the forest. It seemed like they're looking for me.

-Insistent.

They seemed to be completely targeting me. Why? I didn't I do anything. Why are you following me? It was impossible to keep hiding in this forest at this moment. Then, there is only one place I can go to.

The “Mountain”

It seems that the monsters in the forest weren't close to the mountains. Perhaps it is trying not being instinctive. I know that going to the mountain directly leads to death. But there was only one choice for me now. And perhaps S demons are like an old black dragon. It may be uninterested in me and let me pa.s.s through.

Staying in the forest would lead to my death. The problem is the abnormal weather…It was impossible.

What kind of abnormal weather is there…The scorching sun that dries the ground. Suddenly, the weather will change to a storm with electricity…

The weather was swiftly changing from one to the next. Because it was impossible to cross a mountain, I stayed at a cave that seemed to be hidden just around the forest and close to the mountains. I stayed there.

It was an ideal place to hide because the river flows near. If I go to the forest, there would be demons targeting me. If I go to the mountains, I cannot walk through the abnormal weather. What should I do now? This wasn't a place for people to stay, and I wonder if I will decay like this…
