Book 5: Chapter 10
As Zerry-san said, trying to traverse the forest at night was a terrible experience.
Even【Night Vision】skill wouldn’t work in the almost absolute absence of light. Therefore, if I used【Light Magic】to produce a flash every few seconds, I can save on mana and should be able to traverse without problems by capturing a screenshot of the surroundings with World Ruler’s Perfect Memory.
However, in reality–
「Uwaa!?」
The second the next flash went, I saw a bat flying straight at me.
「Uhiii!?」
I almost fell into a hole on the ground hidden by the shadows of trees during the flash. And so, I decided to add echolocation into my traversal. I ran while clicking my tongue to emit sound waves and analyzed the reflected sound waves with【World Ruler】to get a more accurate grasp of the environment. It was exhausting.
But thanks to that, I was able to traverse through the forest without any major injuries. Though, my whole body was muddy.
「…I have finally arrived.」
