An Extra’s POV

"SKRRRRR…!"

"KRRRIIIII!!!"

Rey was stopped dead in his tracks as he encountered two middle-sized critters almost as soon as he began his journey.

These beasts resembled wild jackals, but they were walking on two feet.

'Bipedal, huh? And from those features… they're kobolds, aren't they?'

The Kobolds were as tall as an average child—about a meter tall.

They had no weapons, but their sharp claws and drooling and gaping mouths showed they had more than enough tools to be predators.

Their grimy skins were covered in scales, and they stared hungrily at Rey with their bloodshot eyes.

"I didn't think I would run into any opposition so soon. But I guess here we are."

"GRRRRRRRRR….!!!"

Rey could see that they were cautious of him—perhaps due to instinct.

However, they also seemed to ignore that sensible part of themselves.

'Too hungry perhaps?' He mused.

Either way, even if they were to leave him alone, he never intended to let them go.

"You guys are nuisances to me. In order to enjoy my training in peace, I better get rid of all of you."

Rey thought of it like a renovation.

"This could also serve as some form of training for me."

~WHOOOSHH!~

The two Kobolds lunged at Rey with gaping jaws and outstretched hands.

They were clearly aiming to rip him to shreds in one fell swoop, and their merciless gazes did not betray their motive.

"Fire Spell: Flame Wall"

~VWUUUUMM!~

In an instant, flames roared in front of Rey, shielding him from the imminent onslaught.

"KIYAAAAA!!!"

The screams of the Kobolds echoed in Rey's ears as he smelled something roasting.

'I guess they weren't fast enough to stop advancing.'

Considering they were in midair when he activated the Spell, Rey realized it would have been difficult even if they were fast enough.

"Their durability isn't too high as well since the fire instantly killed them." He mumbled.
