Chapter 10
Whatever it was must have snapped a branch, as it fell and shattered the rotten log. Right next to me. From the broken log, a swarm of larvae spilled out. Ugh, disgusting. No, that’s not the point. That’s not the point—anymore.
I looked up.
A giant—dinosaur?
“No way…”
I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. A monster. It was like something out of a game.
Its body was about three meters tall. Sharp yellow eyes glared at me—a shiver ran down my spine.
I slowly stood up from behind the log and backed away, opening my status screen. Maybe I could do something with [Alchemy]. I focused on the [Alchemy] option, and a detailed menu opened.
[Appraisal], [Construction], [Synthesis], [Decomposition], [Metal Conversion], [Extraction]… There were quite a few options.
[Appraisal]
When I focused, green text appeared above the chicken-like monster: Wyvern. That must be its name.
——Thud, thud, thud.
It was getting closer, still glaring at me.
“………………!”
I stumbled over exposed roots and slipped on the slippery moss, but I kept backing away as slowly as I could.
——Flap, flap.
The sound of wings flapping again.
I glanced behind me.
——Two more Wyverns!
I was surrounded.
