Swordmaster: The Origin

A Woman at the End of the World

*Srak srak {Suara kaki trod on snow}

In a place at the end of the world, a woman dressed in a full white jacket walked slowly through the thick snow that was under her feet.

Not only did she wear a jacket, she also wore gloves and goggles to protect her from the snow.

She also carried a crossbow rifle on her back, which she used to hunt animals.

*Wush~~Wind blows around the woman.

The woman was now looking for food, but she was troubled by the white fog that had kept her eyes closed.

It had been over 2 hours since he searched around for prey, yet nothing appeared at all around him.

Therefore, the woman decided to postpone her hunt first for now

"It seems like today has to pass first." The woman immediately checked her surroundings once more before turning her body and walking in the opposite direction.

In an airy and foggy environment like the edge of the world, it is quite difficult to find a quarry that can be used as food.

that was because the view around it was quite limited, which was caused by the thick white fog that covered the view there.

The woman in the white jacket is one of the people who live at the end of the world, therefore for her it is commonplace if she has not found a single quarry when the weather is deteriorating.

However, as the woman was walking home, she found the bodies of a pack of wolves that were almost covered in snow

"Eh?" The woman immediately went towards the corpse of the wolf to inspect it.

Upon reaching there, the woman removed the snow that had accumulated on top of the wolf's body and saw that their body had been split into 2.

The woman immediately checked into the corpse of another wolf not far from her.

*Srak srak

After checking into the corpses of the other wolves and removing the snow covering their bodies, the female saw the same thing as the corpse of the previous wolf, namely their bodies being split into 2.

"Who did this?" The woman looked around at the wolf's corpse.

After looking around her more thoroughly, the woman saw a large pile of snow that was close to her.

The woman went to the snow to check it out.

Once there, the woman immediately cleared the snow to see what was buried underneath.

*Srak srak

Waving her eyes in surprise, the woman saw a human lying limp under the snow.

"Who is he?" The woman immediately raised the body of the man to examine him.

The man was a young man wearing a strange garment in the woman's eyes, but the woman immediately understood when she saw the emblem stuck in the right pocket of the man's shirt.

(Heraclios Magic Academy)

The woman understood what she was doing with the magic academy, so she immediately recognized that the man she found was a student.

But one thing he didn't understand was, "why can an academy student be at the end of the world? wouldn't it be impossible if the male student got lost to the end of the world?" That's what he's thinking now.

Seeing the man's condition was quite bad, the woman decided to take off her jacket and put it on the man to keep his body warm.

After that, the woman continued by putting the man's body on his back to carry him home.

"Hup!" The man was lifted up on the woman's back to carry her.

After successfully carrying the body of the man on his back, the woman immediately walked towards her house and left the corpse of the wolf that she would later take.

...----------------...

After collapsing from the fight against the wolf pack earlier, Nix regained consciousness in a warm place inside someone's house.

"Hmm? you're awake, right?" Said a woman next to Nix.

Nix immediately opened his eyes after hearing that voice.

"Hmm? where's me?" Nix rubbed his eyes in surprise because he was in a different place than before.

Nix was in a bed inside the house that was all made of wood.

The walls, floors, tables, chairs, all the furniture there is almost made of wood.

Reminds Nix of a relative's home he's been to in the world before.

"I found you lying limp in the snow earlier, so I brought you here" said the woman.

Nix immediately faced the origin of the voice questioning him and saw a red-haired woman wearing casual clothes.

Thinking for a moment to recall the incident before he fainted, Nix who had remembered it immediately said to the woman.

"Ah, I'm sorry. You must be the one who bothered to bring me here when I fainted." Nix lowered his head.

The woman immediately shook her head hearing Nix's words.

Nix raised his head slowly after hearing the woman's words.

But before Nix could speak, the woman continued to ask Nix.

"From what I saw around your body when you fainted, it looks like you were attacked by a pack of wolves huh?" The woman made sure

Nix nodded his head hearing the girl's words.

"Yes, I was attacked by them, 5 wolves." Nix.

"And did you defeat them all?" Ask the woman again

"Yes, I split them into 2."

"That's it.."

The woman was silent for a moment while thinking of something in her head.

After a while, the woman asked Nix.

"From what I see from your shirt, it looks like you're a student of the academy huh? the Academy of Heraclios."

"? was?ah, yes, I'm from there."

"Then why did you get to a place like the end of the world today? from what I saw on the map, it looks like the Heraclius Kingdom is a long way from here, and you can't possibly get lost all the way here right?" Say that woman.

Nix instantly recalled his fight against Demon General Lilith before arriving at the end of the current world.

The reason why Nix could be at the end of the world right now, was because of a high-level magic called World Teleport End.

Nix knew about it, but he could not possibly tell about him fighting a Demon General and being thrown to the end of the world at the woman next to him.

That was because it was certain that the woman would not believe it and would probably think Nix was crazy.

But Nix could not think of any other reason he could make to make the women nearby believe.

So Nix decided to keep quiet for a while so as to think about the reason.

The woman who saw Nix was silent after hearing his question, decided to go to the kitchen right in front of him and take the warm soup that had been cooked earlier.

"Here, eat first." The woman thrust 1 bowl of warm soup towards Nix.

Nix who saw that instantly felt his stomach ring out, and slowly decided to accept it

"Emm, thank you." Nix Sayings

After thanking her, Nix immediately took the spoon prepared by her and spooned some boiled meat towards her mouth.

*hap! Nix ate the soup.

After chewing and swallowing, Nix felt a pleasure he had never felt before.

"Don't kid!" Nix Sayings

The woman smiled seeing Nix enjoying her soup.

"Do you know? the meat I used to make that soup, was the flesh of the wolf you killed before."

Nix momentarily stopped his food when he heard that.

"Eh? really true?" Nix took a quick look at the soup he was eating.

However since Nix did not care about what he ate as long as it was delicious and made him full, Nix continued eating it voraciously.

The woman only looked at Nix who was eating voraciously from beside her.

After less than 2 minutes, Nix had already exhausted the soup given to him.

"Ah keyangnya~~thank you umm..."

"Lina, you can call me Lina." Lina.

"Thank you Lina.." Nix said nervously.

Lina simply nodded her head and walked towards the kitchen while carrying the bowl of soup that Nix had eaten before.

After Nix ate, Nix thought for a moment about the reason he had thought about himself being able to get to the end of the world.

He thought that it was best now that he spoke truthfully as he was to Lina, as he could not think of any good reason other than that right now.

Therefore, Nix decided to tell Lina the truth.

"All right, I'll tell him." Nix walked towards the kitchen to meet Lina.

After being behind Lina who was washing, Nix immediately explained about how he could get to the end of the world.

"Lina, I'm actually.." Nix nervously went straight to explain about him fighting the Demon General named Lilith from the beginning until he ended up at the end of the world.
