"Do you know anything about the secret mission I have? While you can still speak, if you know something, you better say it quickly!"

At Callie's request, or rather a threat, I began to tell her what I knew about the secret mission she had.

Her mission is to free the beastmen who are still slaves in the Misonia Kingdom.

In fact, the Kingdom of Misonia has made laws that prohibit slavery and the sale and purchase of slaves, whether for humans or other races. The law has also been passed by the royal court. If anyone violates, they will be beheaded in public.

Once again, in public.

But the truth is, there were still many humans who captured beastmen and made them slaves. Therefore, she got a mission to free all beastmen who were made into slaves.

Nevertheless, she couldn't carry out the mission openly.

Even though there were laws that regulated the prohibition of slaves, there were still many nobles who were corrupt and supported slavery.

If she went on that mission openly, she would be slandered by the corrupt nobles as a spy who harmed the Misonia Kingdom.

After I told her about her secret mission, her eyes looked confused.

"Eh. How did you know about that?"

"Judging from the response you showed, does that mean... What I said is the truth?"

I smiled, trying to pretend I didn't know before and was just guessing at random.

"Eh?? ... Ah shit. How could you guess accurately like that?"

Finally, she put away her sharp claws that were only a few millimeters apart from my neck. I rubbed my neck still feeling the cold of Callie's sharp claws.

It wasn't that she didn't notice my weirdness, but maybe because she didn't know how I found out, she pretended to go with the flow.

"How? Are you going to accept my offer? It's possible, I can uncover these individuals using my identity as a noble's son. Other than that, I guess you don't have any additional clues about the mastermind who made the beastmen become slaves."

Her face suddenly drew closer to mine. I saw that her eyes had returned to normal.

Sniff~ Sniff~

Her nostrils twitched. She was clearly inhaling my bad breath. Does my breath stink? I couldn't help but think like that when I saw her reaction which immediately turned her face away.

"Hehe, you don't stink. So, I'll trust you for a while. So, I'll give you a chance to prove your worthiness."

She rubbed the tip of her nose proudly. I don't understand how her sense of smell works, however, I can guess that that's how she detects someone's malicious intent or something, I guess.

"Alright. Come with me. After you finish the test I gave you, I'll agree to escort your step-sister and leave the mission I have to you."

Suddenly, she smiled brightly like a child looking at an adorable toy. However, the person she thought of as the toy, aka me, was feeling a scorching chill down the back of my body.

Her expression said that she would be happy while torturing me.

She quickly grabbed my collar and took me away. She carried me around like she was carrying a bag of trash. I gave up when she took me somewhere.

We passed various buildings at lightning speed. When faced with the city walls, Callie climbed up the walls surrounding Ryam City with great ease.

As she climbs up the vertical wall, I feel as if she's walking leisurely because she's moving too fast.

Along the way, I became her carry-on.

After Leaving Ryam City, she continued to stay away from the city. The direction that she was heading, unmistakably, was the Great Forest that was south of Ryam City.

Some time passed, and we finally came somewhere.

Callie finally stopped after reaching where she was probably headed.

After arriving at the destination, she threw me on the ground just like someone who is throwing trash anywhere.

I almost rolled on the grass. But I immediately stood up. Even so, I can barely balance my body position.

The dizziness from experiencing the extreme speed still lingers in my brain.

Because she was moving so fast, I felt like I was riding a roller coaster. Indeed, the movement speed is that fast, so, it's only natural for us to reach the Great Forest within an hour or two.

'Why are all the women who become important characters so strong? Only an extra character like me is weak.'

I was amazed by Callie's speed.

My hands held my head, as my eyes began to look around.

Huge trees soared high into the sky, forming a large, lush forest. Moist air wet the pores of my body. Now and then the wind blows the leaves.

The weird thing is, around me, there was no sound of living beings at all. The forest is silent as if a terrifying creature is about to appear.

"Where is this?"

"Don't you recognize this place? Aren't you from the area around here? You should know because this place is quite a famous place."

Forest… famous… Warwick's Territory… I started combining the clues given by Callie. It's not hard to get the results.

"Great Forest."

"Smart."

It was the only name that matched the few clues she gave.

Indeed, this was the famous Great Forest with the mysteries within. Neither in the novels Demon Lord and the Hero of Light, nor even when I lived in my previous life, no one was able to unravel the mysteries within the Great Forest.

"What are you trying to do by bringing me here?"

"Hehe, are you curious? Wait a moment here. You'll find out for yourself later."

Even the dizziness in my head hadn't quite subsided, and yet, it seemed like she wanted to leave me just like that.

Does she intend to leave me here alone? Doesn't she know that the Great Forest is famous for the ferocity of the monsters within?

Indeed, throughout history, not a single monster had ever come out of the Great Forest.

However, the monsters were famous for preying on anyone who dared to enter their territory.

Callie looked like she wanted to kick the ground and leave, but she stopped when she saw my face.

She tilted her head…

And then she laughed...

"Wahahaha~ why are you making an expression like a cat abandoned by its master?"

"What do you mean?"

"Hahaha, don't pretend like that."

She held her stomach while laughing.

Am I making that kind of expression? I do not think so. After all, it's not appropriate for a cat to call me a cat.

I can only think about her playful behavior.

After laughing satisfied, she immediately ran away just like that.

She went into the forest.

I waited in the forest alone.

"..."

Until …

Rawrrr!

Not long after Callie had gone to the deep forest, a sharp roar resounded from the deep forest. The roar came from the same direction as where Callie had gone.

My eyes saw Callie returning from the forest. She was jumping from one tree branch to another. I remembered the cat jumping on the side of the road when I saw her.

"Hehehe, Mesties. if you want me to agree to what you're proposing, you have to defeat the monster behind me first."

As she approached, she shouted at me.

In an instant moment, She ran past me and just disappeared. I guess she used a stealth skill or something like that.

"Hey, what do you mean by defeating a monster?"

I was confused about what she meant. Even though Callie was gone and didn't answer, the confusion I felt was immediately answered by what happened next.

Rustle~

From within the forest, where Callie had previously left, the trees fell and the grass fell apart. Finally, a giant bear was seen.

The bear's bright red eyes indicated that the bear was a monster. Yes. The monster's name was Giant Bear. It was nearly five meters tall with jet-black fur.

"Don't worry. He's the weakest monster here."

Callie said it out of thin air.

I know that it is the weakest monster in the Great Forest. However, if using the standard of measurement of the average human, then the monster was at rank C, where just one could level a small village.

"Open status window."

For that, I tried to see my status window.

[Status Window:

[After the World System finishes calculating your misfortune points and rewards you accordingly, the World System can now display the Title feature in the Status Window.]

[Would you like to see your Title?]

"Yes. I'd really like to see it. But not for now."

Without waiting for me to finish analyzing my status, the Giant Bear dashed towards me. His eyes are currently focused on me.

Roar~

The bear directed its roar at me.

"Tsk!"

I remained calm despite the sudden turn of events. I'm also used to being on guard, so, having no other choice, I made up my mind to defeat the monster.

The problem is, I don't have a weapon.

I looked around. Apparently, many tree branches fell to the ground.

For the sake of getting a weapon, I jumped to grab a long, big, hard tree branch. Incidentally, the ends of the tree branches are also quite sharp.

Then I took a position like holding a spear, where my right hand held the base of the tree branch and my left hand supported the middle of the tree branch.

Strengthening my stance, my feet pressed firmly into the ground. Like a rocket preparing to launch, the tree branch in my hand pointed straight at the Giant Bear.
