Exploring the Dimension After Reincarnation: Academic

Short Fight

*Scratch!*

The tiger cub clawed at Aya.

*set!*

Aya moved to the side avoiding the attack. ‘(Yes, I'd rather avoid it than accept it. My highest status gives an advantage to speed. It would be a waste if I didn't use it. Actually, my hit point status is bad and I don't like feeling sick. Anyway, a cat like me has a limber body.)’

*glash!*

Aya attacked back and managed to give a wound on the chest of the tiger cub.

The wound is not very deep. There was no blood flowing from there, and it was like just cutting a feather off the skin.

‘(I also realized that I have a bad attack ability that made me dumped by my previous Trainer.)’ Aya stared dryly at the scar she had just caused. ‘(I, who cannot inflict severe damage to my enemies, was rendered useless in battle. So, yeah, instead of keeping me and just spending money on food, she ended up wasting me.)’

‘(Hopefully, Elena who is my current trainer is not doing the same with this. I just need food, the rest is not necessary. If asked what my advantages are, then I will answer having soft fur and cute appearance.)’

‘(My speed is useless in logistics matters because of the limited objects I carry, and more efficiently use the penther bird type and pass from the sky. With my ability to deliver attacks that are almost zero, I am completely useless.)’

‘(Huh..., I hate humans who use us in battle, I want them to feel how to fight and risk their lives. Indeed, I will not die because they can help quickly, but it is very painful to accept the attack. My fragile body could be destroyed if used for something like that.)’

*glare!*

Throughout the feathers of the Tiger began to light up with a red-orange color with a light that is not too bright. However, at least the light was clearly visible in this dark forest.

‘(Is that his skill? What will happen next?)’ thought Aya with curious eyes.

*tap!* *bite!*

The tiger lunged towards Aya and bit strongly.

*set!*

Aya who did not have adequate defense capabilities, decided to avoid the attack.

The bite misses and instead hits a tree root behind Aya, then smashes it into various small pieces of wood.

‘(Ho-Hororor, if I get bitten by it. My body is much softer than a log, I will be instantly split with a bite wound if it gets hit by it. From this, I can guess if his abilities are related to the increase in physical strength. There are no additions in its speed, but a drastic increase occurs in the attack ability.)’

*glash!* *slash!* *slash!*

Aya did not waste this opportunity, and directly charged towards the Penther. The attack of his weak claws, only gave a light cut above the surface of the skin. Indeed, his efforts are in vain given the absence of vital wounds, this will only show results if done repeatedly in the same place.

‘(Waduh, waduh. I'm starting to run out of energy centers, huh. I will try to negotiate with him to buy time. From the start, anyway, it was their business to get the penthr to be their partner. I was just following along and was actually not involved in this matter at all. As long as they get to this place, they should face this penther on their own, while I will just relax on Elena's head.)’

“(A-Anu, can you stop this first? It's no use if you fight without a goal plan, right?)” aya's words are convincing.

“(Men-Rush? Do I look like I'm going to lose? I won't give up on you guys!)” The tiger cub sharpened his gaze on Aya with a feeling of alertness and suspicion.

‘(Luckily we are both still cat species. At least, I can communicate quite smoothly with him. If he is not a Tiger and a species from a much different family, I can only communicate by guessing his body language. To be honest, I myself am not very fond of that bird - Bromo Agni-because its body shape is too much different from mine.)’

So look, yeah. Actually Aya and other animals use their respective languages that are different from humans. Therefore, the Author gives brackets to their dialogue, to show that their language is actually different from humans. Why not write, such as “Meow”, “Kik”, or others, because it will only interfere or multiply words in one CHAPTER. So to make it easier, just go straight to the dialog with parentheses.

“(No, no, no, I didn't tell you to give up, I just asked you to join us.)” Aya shook her head.

“(Do you think I'm that weak until I join you? I will not be that easy to fall into your traps and will continue to fight for my own freedom!)” replied the Tiger Boy loudly.

“(This is not a trap, really. Isn't it creepy and sad to be in a dark and vast forest all by yourself? I don't see your family here, but seeing you alone makes me guess if you're separated from them. So, because of that. Than a kara here, you can come with us and have a new family,)” Aya still insists on taking her.

Aya's goal was not to invite him to join, but just buy time. Good thing, they both do chases in one straight line, so Elena et al will have no trouble finding the two of them. The problem here, is the road terrain is rather narrow. Bromo Agni can easily pass through it, but for a human size, it will take a little longer.

“(You can guess it, yes.)” The tiger calmed down by extinguishing the red aura around his body. “(I do have a few bad memories with humans. They arrested my mother a few days ago and killed my father when I wasn't born. Mom always told me to stay away from them because they're all dangerous. Therefore, I do not want to come with you.)”

‘(The past was pretty dark too. Although our bodies are more or less the same size, but I am older than him because it is smaller than a tiger. I myself could not deny it when I myself also received bad treatment from my previous trainer. In fact, at the pet store, I might even be told to make a child with a boy I don't know.)’

“(Quietly, not all humans are evil, kok.)” Aya smiled brightly before turning into a smirk. “(The wicked man is only the majority. That's why you don't trust them too much. If you are careless, you will instead be used as a money-making tool and have a much smaller payment than you should. It's very similar to the dark company, you know.)”
