[Silver Ash] - Become The Strongest In Another World
[REVISION] CHAPTER 2: The turning point

...****************...


" "Well, we go~" "


"Cautiously~"


Olivia and I greeted Marry, who led us to the entrance of the village.


Olivia and I are currently intending to enter the forest and search for some medicinal herbs. Previously we had entered the forest with some adults in the village to collect materials.


This time, we did it ourselves. This is also my request because Olivia and I wanted to explore the forest and find something interesting .. As usual, my curiosity killed me.


Olivia and I happily walked on the fresh ground while looking at the surrounding trees.


I looked towards Olivia who was vigorously walking while looking around. His silver hair fluttered freely as he walked about with leaps and bounds.


Olivia was currently wearing her usual outfit, a lacy one-piece dress with a white top and a bluish-black subordinate. It also comes with the addition of black-to-knee open skirts to make it easier to move.


As a complement, she also wore a dark blue ribbon that was mounted on the collar of her lacy dress.


In short, Olivia has a gothic lolita appearance that fits perfectly with her silver hair and black eyes.


It looks like a cosplay if he uses it on earth. But fortunately, Olivia has a very matching appearance to the gothic model outfit she uses now.


On the other hand, I was wearing clothes that were completely relaxed. With a long black cuff that covered my body up to my neck as an interior, I used clothes that were like a black blazer as a complement and simple black trousers.


the clothes I was wearing really contrasted with the appearance I had. My hair is white for a reason, and my skin also looks pale and both eyes are gray. Looks like I was born without having a lot of pigment .. They call this albino right?


But a person who does not have pigment from birth will have red eyes because his blood vessels are visible right? I have gray eyes.


But I'm pretty sure that I can be called handsome.


I thought about my appearance when we finally arrived at a large rock measuring about 15 meters in size. This stone is often used by villagers as a guide and place of emergency rest because there is like a hole in this stone.


"Alright, I think we're going to make this a temporary base. Olivia, you put all your stuff in sana~"


I spoke to Olivia while putting down the empty bag I carried to transport the medicinal plants later and was immediately answered by Olivia, "Oke~".


We're used to this kind of rural lifestyle, to be honest it's fun to get new experiences, but .. As expected, it's kind of hard to get used to things, it's kind of hard to get used to, we come from a modern world.


"Alright~ Noelle, let's eat first, we'll continue later."


Olivia, who had already put all her stuff down (consisting only of the lunch box and rapier she used to use) started calling me and I answered "OK."


Our lunch consisted only of meat-filled bread made by Olivia and Marry. Although it looks like a normal 7-year-old, Olivia and I are actually 24 years old.


And we get meat from the village people who hunt animals. Our village is a small village that only accommodates a population of approximately 60 people, Olivia and I are also quite popular and have a good reputation among them because we always help their work in their spare time.


That's why the church we live in gets more rations for hunting and agriculture.


Refrigerators like refrigerators are still not found in this world. Therefore, it is very rare to see meat and vegetables can be durable. The meat will usually be dried to become a winter supply.


For the record, the world calendar system is similar to Earth.1 year consists of 12 months and 365 days.


What is different is that this world or planet has 3 moons surrounding it. One moon, which is right in the middle, appears to be the main satellite, and the other two orbit the first moon, like an artificial satellite used for a specific purpose.


I remember some countries on earth already had projects to create artificial satellites orbiting the moon. But, unfortunately the project was not completed even at the time of our death.


" "Thank you for the food." "


Olivia and I finished eating the sandwich we brought from the church.


"All right, how about we do it now? and this is also a good time to raise our level."


"Nn, are we going to hunt some monsters? "


"Yes, I think the meat can be eaten later as well"


Eventually Olivia and I started doing our jobs. Our task is simple, just collect medicinal plants and fungi that can be found (make sure that it is not toxic or you will die!). We also killed the monsters we saw by chance.


Until now, my level and Olivia's were at 0, so it's a good time to improve. Strong monsters will only appear at night, so we are safe.


Besides, Olivia and I have also trained a lot of attack magic, but there is almost no time to use on monsters. Therefore, it is a great opportunity to test our skills.


We continued to collect plants and kill monsters until the sun was right overhead. We set off in the morning, so we've collected enough.


Olivia and I went back to our base (the hole in the rock) and decided to take a short break.


"How much is your level now? Olivia"


"I'm 24."


"It seems we've done it too much"


Normally, one would only raise their level in small amounts in one day. But, actually it depends on how much and how strong the monsters are defeated.


It was probably because the monsters we defeated were strong enough to give a big point. Vain said that the level of a normal knight was 60-70. on top of that it was difficult even for the majority of knights or middle-ranked adventurers.


And the higher your level, the harder it is to get an increase.


The ones who could reach the level of 80+ were usually the paladins or knights of the royal family guards or even the king himself. That was because they tended to be in a place filled with powerful monsters while doing expeditions.


Since the king was a direct descendant of the hero Aaron, it was not strange for him to have such a high fighting ability.


"Alright, the break is over~ Hey Olivia, want to date for a while? "


"You say it as if we had a relationship like that …"


Olivia answered me in a soft voice and bowed her head. But I could clearly see her ears turning red from embarrassment.


Actually, it's a little weird. In the past, Olivia always actively approached me. Now, he just loosened up with his habit and seemed to start to keep his distance.


"Forget it, if you want to go back now, come on."


"Muuu.. Okay! let's go now! "


Looks like he's angry. But yes, he will be back to normal after a while.


...****************...


How long were we walking? it's getting late in the afternoon, we seem to be already in the deepest part of the forest.


This forest is located at the foot of the mountain which has a height of about 4,000 meters, extending out of nowhere and making it a natural fortress for the kingdom.


And even though we had been walking for over 2 hours, we were still not tired at all. Even without body strengthening, we were able to walk for more than 3 hours on uneven cobbled roads.


But Olivia decided to go faster, so we used 《Physical Strength》 by concentrating our mana on the legs. We could run for hours.


Even though it was such a waste, Olivia and I had been training our magic since we were 1 year old, so we had the development of an absurd amount of mana.


"Bingo, a strange place in the middle of the mountain."


After running for a while, we finally came to the strange place we found. It was a giant cave in the middle of the mountain.


…No, that's not weird. The cave on the mountain was a normal thing, the strange thing was what was inside.


It was a castle.


Olivia and I looked at the castle with pure admiration. The first castle we saw in the world...


It was a huge castle built inside the cave. The very magnificent castle has a brownish black color that carries a creepy impression. If the castle can talk I'm sure he'll say 'I am a cursed place! you can't go to~' or something like that...


"Hey Olivia."


"!… Ms? "


"How about we go home first, we'll explore this castle later."


I took Olivia who finally recovered from her shock. After all, this castle looks creepy and gives off a mystical aura that strangely attracts us.


"...Miss, we'll be back later"


I knew it would be dangerous, and I realized that getting Olivia involved in this would lead to something bad. But, still .. There's something, which I think we should do in that place. It's a really strange feeling.


Olivia and I directly put all the items we brought into the treasure warehouse using spatial magic.


And we quickly ran to the village without knowing what was going on there.


...****************...


Arriving at the village, Olivia and I were once again surprised by the scenery around us.


The village we live in is completely destroyed with many corpses of villagers filled with blood.


Everyone in the village has been killed.
