Chapter 11
Two weeks had passed since I started my vagabond survival life.
By the way, on this continent a week was called Spirit Week, and it was divided into seven days: light, dark, earth, water, fire, wind and void, with the day of light being the holiday. It was a clichéd gag of the old men to lament that “darkness has come to the world” on the day of dark when work began again. Lastly, a month was 30 days, and a year was 360 days.
After spending two weeks like that, it would sound nice to say that I’ve gotten used to life in the forest, but it was only because this country was in the south of the continent and the climate was warm, so if it were in the middle of summer or winter, I’d be dead by now.
I’ve been on guard for the past two weeks due to what I did to the old hag and that drunkard, but nobody in particular came in my pursuit.
The last two weeks have been spent doing the usual training and practising the basics of magic power control. During that time, I made one visit to the town to replenish what I lacked in my forest life.
At that time I caught sight of those siblings, and I thought their complexion had become better, probably due to eating better thanks to that drunkard’s wallet I handed them before.
For now, I felt that my relationship with the two was more than strangers but less than acquaintances. For some reason, the older brother, Gil, appeared to see me as a rival, while the younger sister, Shuri, waved at me with a big smile when she saw me.
After several attempts with the phenomenon of moving my hair as an extension of myself with magic power that I discovered, I found that while I couldn’t move it as freely as a limb, I could move it a few centimetres when I swung it around.
I knew the world wasn’t so easy. Even so, after about a hundred attempts, I had a feeling that the hit rate had increased by about 20% and the power had also increased a little.
The main problem was that the strands of hair were simply tied together to make the string longer, so it would come undone after several dozen uses. Perhaps the cause was my low dexterity, but before I knew it my dexterity increased by one due to braiding it over and over when there was a need to repair it.
So my current status was like this.
