Unexpected Hunt

Yawn... Lynn woked up, stretching his hand and foot. Reinvigorated he felt, feeling this lovely day.

He looked over to the window. It's already dawn, indicated that the maid should already awaked now, getting ready to started their day.

Waked up this hour is a bit unusual to him, he always waked up seven of the morning to eight. It might lazy for him, but having a child body, he needed to have a long nap to be efficient.

Lynn do his routine of light excercise. Done on it, he wiped those sticky feeling with wet towel, putted his clothes and cleaned the bed before he leaved.

He headed over to the next room where the maid at, he entered as it's already been okay.

Trish and the other's already nowhere to be found. Their job is really though as they needed to waked up early and work nonstop cleaning the mansion.

He closed the door seeing that he had no business in here. He walked to the kitchen to take his breakfast, but with how early he was today. The food's are still in the processed, seeing the bearded chef played with flame in those stove.

Without nothing to do, he lended his hand to helped. The chef gladly take it not scared that the child might accidently cutted his whole finger cutting those onions.

Done and pass it to the chef, and waited again to the food.

When the waited are over, the chef deliberately putted more food on his plate as thank's of him.

Ate his food and leaved the kitchen waved to the beared chef.

His next destination is his first job at the same time with his second job, which walking the dog in the forest and scout prey for the hunter.

Unbinding the dogs leash, he entered the forest and let them do their business. Done on it, he scouted more deeply in the forest heart.

As he deepen more, he increased up his guard commanded the three dogs to taked formation of triangle, while he on the centered of it. The dogs are smart enough to heed his commanded and precisely walked to maintained the formation.

Not finding anything to be hunted, he let the dogs rested to the tree, binding their leash. He'll trained his newly obtained power, and see how he can master it.

At least tried to grasp it.

Lynn standed in the center of an opened area, and chanted magic in his hand. With transparent body of wind, it danced in his hand.

"Good." Lynn muttered, relieved inside that for five-years of hardwork he'd now can chant a magic.

"Now, let's see what this mana can do." He'll try an experiment right now.

In this word, there's must be a spell that you needed to do learned before you can wield an actual devastating attack. But even though without it, you can performed simple thing.

Lynn looked over to a nearby tree and targeted it branch. He waved his hand and chant, "Air".

The wind concentrated and it targeted the branch. Branch yanked up a little recieving his magic.

Although, it's so weak, it's already enough for Lynn. As he tried new thing without stopping.

"Air cut!" He shouted chanting, the mana condensation this time became more intense and fast, formed in two-seconds before it flow and cutted the thin branch.

"Too slow." Dissapointed he said, his chanting is too slow just using a non-tier magic.

There's many possibility of this world magic system as it was free form in many aspect. It can directed to an object.

Speaking of it, Lynn think's of an idea. How about if he coated an object, if it can be deadly and sharp.

With that idea, he picked up the twig that in the branch that he cutted. Without chanting, he focus his mana on it, the twig leaves swayed violently as the mana condensed. It twirled around it non-stop.

Added more mana on it, and expanded the edged as it graced his clothes with strong gust flapping it violently.

He tried to compress it, wanted it to be more fatal if he can sharpen it spinning. But with poor knowledge of how mana works in this world, he can't do it. Only decreased it edged by half, it those not have progress as he only compressed it, not controlled the area of it's direction of attack.

At the experiment he'd just made, he'd really confirmed and amazed by it, even though it he'd already confirmed it long ago.

Lynn raised his hand and smashed the twig onto the ground. With a boom, the dust and wind surged out to him, a marked leaved by the impact as it was hitted by trunk of tree but with soft layer it was made in the dirt.

"Beautiful!" Excitement as he clutched his hand hard posing victory punch in his chest level.

He made a several experiment like, air bullet, air flow, and etc, much more he can think of.

With satisfied look, he'd decided to go home and have a delicious lunch with his mother.

Going back, he commanded again the dog to take formation as they walked. The journey are great along with those whislte of him.

But suddenly, unexpected happened making him jumped back.

A brownish 4 meter lion pounced on the dog on his left, snapping the dog neck, bleeding it until it died.

With whistle, Lynn runned fast as much far away possible on the lion commanded the dog to not take the fight. Wits of second of his brain functioned thinking that's a hopeless thing to sacrifices the dog without using it's full extent of this scenario.

The lion shaked the dog violently to feel if'll struggles more before it noticed that the other prey already runned far away from him.

It runned after them showing how smart it was. The dog on it fang is already dead, so there's no purposed to guarded it as it'll can be left for now and hunted the three more prey.

With the lion powered muscle and four legs, it runned fast to him, dwindiling the distance fast on Lynn.

Lynn used his creational spell air bullet, he pointed his hand on the back and chant. The air manifest to configuration of bullet, manifesting it before it shot while Lynn are already far away where it manifest.

The magic landed, but without propered preparation and practiced it'll not do anything to thick muscles of it.

The lion roared and recieved the attack head on as it was just an BB bullet. With the lion core elements, it just dissipated on the lion skinned leaving it without scratch or anything.

Roar!

It roared as it followed him, Lynn used the environment to confused it and delayed it nonstop running.

Whistle!... Lynn whistled, commanded the one dog to runned back to the mansion. It'll make a commotioned and the hunter will surely knowed that there's problem in the forest. Or the housekeeper that undeniably smart enough to noticed it.

Lynn commanded the one left behind to guard him in the side five-feet away from him.

He take a big turn left before the huge lion pounced. It obliterated the two tree's as it was nothing to his body, the lion surely on the earth element.

With that, the gap between him and the lion take a few meter away from each other, before the lion get back on his footing and catch up again.

As Lynn runned he'd always darted his eye's left and right, finding any useful to be used. Thank's to his effort of always working out lightly, his breathing are still normal for a child.

There!... He'd notice something useful, a big tree he see and runned to it before again the lion pounced on him.

"Air cut!" Lynn used his magic, cutting the big tree foundation leaving a mark on it. He circled it around using his air cut to weakened all it side.

Roar!

The lion are now back on his chase, and Lynn let himself to be chased around while he cutted the tree.

At the last 'air cut' he used, he find angle's of where the tree can fall to the ground without interruption. He'd seen and ready to intiate the plan he made for this bad boy.

Lynn runned around, when they are now in the spot of the X mark. He shouted. "Don, do it!" sorry buddy... He added inside.

The dog suddenly pounced on the lion side, tackled his own small body to the lion head. The lion caused to paused and tried to bited the little pest.

Don, the dog back off, dodgin it. When the attack didn't connect, Don, bited the lion head and rided onto it while the lion shaked his head violently, wanted to shaked out the pest.

Lynn didn't looked to his back, he'd straightforward go on the other side of the tree. When he'd arrived, Don taken a hit to the lion claw. Don crushed to the tree and fell to the ground.

When the lion done on the little pest, he looked around to find the dessert of his lunch today. It smelled the air and caught the smell of Lynn, the lion looked at the tree, where the dessert smell coming from.

"Air cut!!!" Lynn shouted reverberated.

He used his 'air cut' to pulled the last draw to make the tree fell down on the ground, and run along with his spell.

When the his spell hitted the tree, He jumped and used his biscep to crush himself to the tree. So the momentum direction of the fell will be on the lion side.

The lion became confused as it looked to the tree that moved. It slowly looked to it's vision that the tree is quiet abnormal as it becoming more big before it noticed that it's falling and runned away.

Roar!

But sadly, Don already on his foot and tackled again the lion. The lion been pushed back, and the tree fall on his body.

The tree crushed to the ground, and created gust of dust in the area.

With the lion tought body, it received the weight of the tree alive but barely moving. It's roar weakly as it tried to get away the heavy tree on his body.

Bang!

Lynn didn't let that happened as he runned beside it and smashed the branch on his hand, coated with the wind magic of him.

His strenght and magic still not penetrable to make a fatal damage to the lion. It only maked the lion head swing left and right as he smashed it repeatedly.

Shit!... Lynn calculation didn't see this coming, he cursed as he see the lion used his remaining strenght to claw him.

Lynn have no time to dodged as he gritted his teeth for impact.

With a violently spinned Lynn made in the mid air, and crushed to the nearby tree. His head are now bleeding and his left hand are badly injured, while his left ribs are slightly fractured along with his hand that he'd used to block the attack.

Thank's to his wits calculation, he'd used his wind magic to decreased the impact he'll made to the tree.

To deathly to bloody.

Lynn stand up difficulty with his own to feet.

He looked to the lion the still alive, crawling out to the tree on his back.

Lynn didn't take the risk of not getting any benefits on this dangerous hunt. Even though he can kill this lion, he can't take it to the mansion and tell the carpenter to sell it on the city.

The baron will notice it, that what he'll not let happened as he still don't no what his motive. He can keep the lion body in secret, but with the injury he had right now, it's impossible. He'll lost big amount of blood before he can hide this humongous body.

He walk away to the area slowly, his body is itching in pain right now. Walking to the mansion direction.

Don, the dog arrived beside him and help Lynn to walk.

"Thank's buddy, sorry for using you as a bait." Lynn thanked the dog, Don bark to answered him.

With the hellish pain his feeling right now, he'd arrived to the mansion in forty-five minutes.

The back of the mansion is in chaos as the men runned around with fork while the guard station in the side ready to war. The maid are in huddle in the mansion back entrence, worried for something.

Seeing that there's now people. Lynn close his eye to rest, clearly that Ron, the dog he commanded to runned back home safetly pass the message the something happened to him.

With a flap, he fell to the ground as he heard the call of the people to him. In the midst of it, he heard his mother cry, before he rested his unbearable pain on his body.
