Chapter 131 Strongest, Kept at a Distance

" . . . I don't see a strong monster at all . "

It has been some time since we departed for Melkia .

We should be in this Chikirisbia Forest already according to the map, but I don't see any strong monster .

They might be stronger compared to the ones in an average plain, but they're at a level where we don't even need to fight seriously .

"Maybe we're not in that forest yet?"

"But the map says that the forest should be here . "

I replied Iris .

We should be traveling on the right direction too .

There's no mistake about it since I've been using magic to check direction through magnetism and stars in the sky while we're moving .

"Uun . They say that you'd reach Chikirisbia Forest after a little while if you go straight . . . . But I don't see any monster like in the story . . . . "

"The atmosphere does get more authentic as we dive deep into the forest though!"

We're advancing through the forest while talking as such .

I noticed a strange reaction caught in the 『Pa.s.sive Detection』 along the way .

No, strange might not be exactly correct .

This is a type I was used to in my past life although I haven't encountered it much after reincarnating .

" . . . You three, wait here a bit . I'll return real quick . "

I run into the forest after saying that .

While erasing my presence and mana reaction .

Heading toward the reaction earlier by relying on 『Pa.s.sive Detection』 .

And there I found--a several meter tall huge ape .

"Ki!?"

When it saw me, the ape monster was going to attack me while looking like it was panicking .

But it's slow .

Before the ape could swing down its claw, I stepped in and cut its neck off .

Afterward .

" . . . . Is this the intelligent monster in question?"

I went back to where Ruli and the others were, put the ape monster on the ground and asked them .

Seeing that, Ruli shouts out with a surprised look .

"That's . . . That's a Wizm Monkey isn't it!"

" . . . Wizm Monkey?"

"Yes! It's the strongest one among intelligent monsters that dwell in Chikirisbia Forest! It leads the monsters in the area--don't tell me you defeated it?!"

. . . I see . So that's what's going on huh .

I thought the monster could talk like Iris when I heard intelligent monster term . . . Looks like it's a miss .

"Yeah I beat it . And I know why the monsters didn't show themselves up . "

"Show themselves up?"

"Yeah . They're . . . . avoiding us . "
