I Reincarnated as a Shinai

Chapter 39: Dangers III

Alexander fought against the Evil Beast that has suddenly appeared He noticed that it was an easy opponent but it wasn't to the point that he had to ask for some help.

With his Mythical Arcana, he had several life-saving skills that he could use in case he was truly in trouble

"Not bad You'll give me another 10 points"

The young man muttered as he tried slashing the viper's body

Clang! Clang!

It felt like he was striking a metal due to the beast's tough scales. However, instead of worrying, Alexander smiled even more as he used one of the Arcana's ability.

Tranquility!

This time, after using the skill to enhance the sword, the viper's body was easily cut like paper.

Diether had watched all of this happening. He saw the young Arcanist easily overpowered the beast that he took a long time to defeat

'No, I can do that right now It's just that master was still recovering and unable to unleash his true power before'

After a couple more minutes, Alexander finished taking out the core and called for his teammates to clean up the corpse

One of them easily burned the beast's body and only its ashes were left. The skill they used was called Ritual Flame and it was one of the skills that a common arcana can have.

'It seems that sister will be fine Not only was she strong, but she also has a powerful leader'

After confirming the capabilities of his sister's team, Diether felt assured and continued surveying the surrounding area.

He was also waiting for Wang Lin's signal

Whether Leader Wang had succeeded or not in facing the third-party within the forest, they should be sending a signal for everyone to inform them of the result

As soon as Diether left, Alexander sighed in relief as he continued his solo hunting in a different direction.

***

"I'm Wang Lin! A 2-Star Hunter from Farahn Village What are you doing here in the forest?"

He bravely announced his name as soon as he noticed that the people he was facing were ready to pounce on him.

'Hmm They look suspicious How did they get here?'

He suddenly thought as he had noticed that their clothing was a bit unusual with their black robe that covers their body The six men all had black and short hair that was common to the kingdom. Their tanned-skinned was also nothing unusual as they seem to be people that were working in the field

Grrr!

The Inferno Wolves looks angry but they did not attack him yet as it wasn't ordered.

""

"Why are you not answering?! Didn't you hear me?!"

Wang Lin squinted his eyes as the group just ignored his words. He didn't feel good about it. He is a 2-Star Hunter, after all. He had some pride in his status and this is the first that he was just ignored

"Hmph! Attack!"

As soon as they said this, they noticed a fluctuation of energy that was sent to the Inferno Wolves before they pounced on Wang Lin!

"I knew it You guys were trouble"

It seems that they were really Beast Tamers! This is surely not a simple matter!

Wang Lin had a grave tone after he noticed the method of attack the enemy used.

Aside from that, they also disregarded his status as a Hunter so they must be similar to the bandits or they truly belong to an organization that hates them

'Beast Tamers from that country shouldn't be this bold with the non-aggression pact Are they from a different organization?'

Anyway, they must also be on a mission to attack the young Arcanists of their country so they had to stop them.

Luckily, they expected that it will turn out like this so he managed to quickly get into safety.

The other hunters that were watching him from afar had also noticed the situation and quickly rescued their leader.

The others then immediately informed all the hunters and arcanists nearby about the sudden trouble

***

Bam!

It was another flare signal that was set off in the sky to inform everyone about the situation within 50 kilometers.

This time, it was no longer as inconspicuous as before as it lit so brightly even in this daytime.

"A trouble, huh"

Orga was having tea in the backyard when the signal was set off to be seen by almost everyone in the village.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Multiple footsteps were heard as several hunters who were passing their time at the association's headquarters rushed to meet him

"Sir! Sir! There's trouble in the forest"

"We should send reinforcements quickly It could be a beast tide!"

"Should we evacuate the citizens?"

The panicking 1-Star Hunters came to give their reports and opinions. They were all close to Orga so he didn't mind it.

"I saw the flare Don't panic It's too early for a beast tide Gather all available hunters and I'll lead the investigation."

The hunters' faces immediately lit up after hearing Orga's words. If he personally leads the group, they were sure that everything would turn out fine in the end.

Honestly, even Orga was confused by the sudden flare signal that there still burning in the sky. The Wailing Forest Trial had only started for several hours It should be a three-day trial but a problem had quickly arrived He was sure that the students hadn't killed many beasts yet.

"Whatever Let's see what's going on for now"

***

"Hey, kid"

Reiji called out as he suddenly felt that the wind blows strangely in the forest.

"Yes, master"

"You know that the flare signal means trouble, right?"

"Yes It means that Sir Orga might make a move Should we go back? I wonder what happened Haa~ I hope that Sir Wang Lin was alright"

"Mhmm But I think that you have to worry about yourself There seem to be a large number of beast approaching. They came from the inner region"

"W-what's happening?"

"I'm not sure But something must've happened in the inner region or something attracted them here"

Diether's kendo skills were meant for a duel or one on one battles. He was still not trained to fight multiple opponents so he might be in trouble if he was surrounded by the beasts.

"Alright I'll save myself now, master"

He chuckled a bit as he started running away to get outside of the forest The students have 4th-Class Arcanists to protect them at the very least but he doesn't have that kind of privilege so he had to be smart in his actions.

"Y-you---"

However, as Diether was trying to move out, Alexander suddenly showed up. The weird thing was that when he saw his face, he suddenly had a hostile expression towards Diether
