Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Ghrrrrrr!

A black wolf scowled with its fangs exposed, its saliva fell to the ground from its open mouth.

GROWL!

It jumped towards the figure dressed in blue leather armour, the wolf body speed increased momentarily with black smoke rising from its body. It aimed at the neck of the prey to kill him instantly but suddenly.

SWISH!

The black wolf was cut in half vertically with just one swing of a sword.

Zick Looked at the dead body with his deadpan face, The wolf shaped monster name is nertse wolf, they live in dark places most of the time and they only leave at night when it is dark to find their prey. They have a special ability of increasing their speed momentarily and hiding their presence in dark places.

The wolf's skin was tough which couldn't be pierced by Zick's stone flicking so he had to kill it with his sword properly.

Cleaning off the blood on his sword, Zick put the sword back in its sheath. The sun had already set, the surroundings slowly turned dark in Zick's view.

p After looking at it for a second, Zick started climbing a tree beside him, now that it was turning dark he decided to take a short break. He had not eaten any food for the whole day too.

Finding a higher ground in the distance, Zick started running towards it. The higher ground looked like a cliff with a height of 30 to 40 metre. Strengthening his legs with mana, Zick jumped at the top of the cliff like high ground easily.

Zick sat at the corner of the cliff and started eating the jerky which he took out from his space ring. After eating the jerky, he started moving again so as to not waste his time.

'My body won't get fatigued while moving at such a slow pace so I should try crossing this forest as fast as possible.'

Along the way Zick met many types of monsters who tried to kill him. Almost all of them were monsters which came out at night. The most annoying monster which got in Zick way was huge bat-like monsters, their name is jevt bat, they would stay in the sky and shoot out sonic attacks from their mouth.

When he was only attacked by a single sonic attack of the Jevt bat it didn't affect Zick's body at all. But when many jevt bats used it at once, all his internal organs started trembling. Using mana he was able to stabilise his body setting off the sonic attacks, if not he would have suffered from an internal injury. Zick didn't want to use the high rank potions so soon as they might come in use in the future.

In the end using piercing mana slice, Zick was able to kill all of them. There were at least 50 of jevt bats which were trying to kill him.

Only after travelling for another one day did Zick get out of the forest.

'Now, I only need to travel for another two and half a day to reach the three peak mountain.....I really underestimated the monsters deep within the forest'

With this thought in mind, Zick looked at the grass field in front of him, Breathing in the fresh air, he continued his journey.

STOMP!

The ground below Zick's leg bent down with cracks forming around it. Zick started running using a little mana to strengthen himself. With his current speed, he would be able to reach his destination a lot faster than his estimated time. He only knew how much time it would take by travelling from horse, after looking at the map he felt like he would reach there a lot faster.

Every once in a while Zick would stop and see the map to see if he was heading in the right direction. When he felt that his body was tired, he would drink half the content of the stamina potion and continue moving.

After a day and a half, at night.

"haaa....haaa...haaa..."

Zick rested below a tree breathing raggedly, he had run out of stamina potion a while ago. He could have travelled this distance a lot faster if he used all his mana but he would always save some of his mana and let it recover in case of emergencies.

Taking out the map from his space ring, Zick looked at it. He could only click his tongue looking at the map.

"Tch!"

He put it back within his ring; he could have reached his destination within four to five hours if he travelled at the same speed.

'Should've brought more stamina potions....'

He regretted his decision on buying only five stamina potions, it was his first time using a stamina potion so he had taken whatever number felt right to him.

"sigh..."

Sighing to himself, Zick waited for his body to recover. He didn't have to wait long as his body recovered faster as he is a knight. Within five minutes he had recovered a little of his stamina.

Getting up, Zick started walking slowly. After walking for another 30 minutes he had recovered most of his lost stamina. When he decided to start running, he felt the presence of many people some distance from him.

Walking towards the presence, Zick could see a band of bandits having a party. They weren't able to sense Zick's presence at all even when he had come near them. Which showed that there was no one as strong as him in that group.

"hahahaha! we made a big catch today, everyone drink as much as you want!"

The person who looked like the leader of the bandit spoke with a red face already drunk in wine.

"Yes..hiccup..."

Another person beside the leader of the bandit tried to speak but was already too drunk to speak.

'The strongest one in their group is a low rank knight.'

Only the leader of the bandit group was a low rank knight other were garbage, with a few of them in lowest rank. Zick could see the loot which was referred to as a big catch by the bandit leader.

It seems like they have successfully assaulted a merchant caravan. There were multiple wooden boxes lined up together. But the thing which caught Zick eyes was the bag which was filled with gold and silver coins.

'....the bandits are richer than me?'

He felt his mood sour thinking of this, Even though Zick had the crest with him, but it wasn't something that belonged to him.

'Well they are bandits anyway, in other words, they are thieves.'

Justifying himself, Zick leaped at the leader of the bandit and cut his head off with the swing of his sword.

"What...? is.."

Not stopping then Zick killed off the bandits near him, all of them were already drunk which led to them not even being able to defend in any way.

The ground was covered in blood as Zick stood in front of his loot.

"ha!"

Zick couldn't help but laugh mockingly looking at the loot.

'Bandit these days live a better life than the others.'

There were totally 302 gold coins and 1254 silver coins with a lot of bronze coins along with it. Putting it within his ring, he looked at the boxes nearby.

Opening it, Zick could see arts like painting and different food ingredients which the Merchant must have been planning on selling in a city.

Even though it was of no use to him, Zick put it within his ring.

'I can just sell it in a city after finding the dragon heart.'

Zick started heading towards his destination at full speed.
