My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

FLAAASH!

A beautiful Little bird, the Starlight Hummingbird of Alexander, flew towards the Beetle in front of it and quickly attacked it!

CLASH!

A strong kick using its tiny legs was enough for the beetle to move a few centimeters away! However, the little hummingbird was still on its infant stage, so it couldn't so strong.

The beetle was a rare monster and also strong at defense due to its hard armor, therefore, more than just the kick of a tiny bird would be needed to knock it off.

"Grrash!"

The beetle released a strange sound that came from its mandibles crashing against one another, as it reached up to the hummingbird by jumping! It attempted to crush the little bird while it could!

However, Alexander used a mental command like most trainers could to order the bird to evade in time, this wasn't because the bird wouldn't evade, but Alexander had a greater reflexes in battle than the bird itself, so it helped it by preemptively alerting it of danger so it could move in time!

FLASH!

CLASH!

The strong mandibles of the beetle crashed over the empty air, as the hummingbird flew around, starlight came out of its tiny and beautiful wings as it flapped them rapidly!

"Starlight Beam!"

Alexander suddenly infused a part of his mana into the Hummingbird, suddenly making the bird glow brightly like an actual star, this was a finishing move! If the beetle wasn't going to be knocked out easily, this would surely do it!

FLAAASH!

The hummingbird unleashed a beam of bright yellow-gold starlight coming out of its beak towards the beetle, clashing against it and blowing it away through the air!

BOOM!

"Gryee…!"

The beetle fell over the floor hitting itself in the head, completely being hit unconscious!

"Mine!"

Alexander quickly used the item specifically made to capture monsters, and wrapped it around the beetle's "neck" or well, where its head seemingly ended.

FLASH!

The beetle suddenly recovered some health from Frank's Ginseng healing it, and then it realized it had a new master!

"I'll name you… Rookie!" said Alexander.

"Crash!"

The beetle wasn't able to properly produce sounds that weren't anguish sounds, so it simply used its jaws and clashed them around in a matter of sound, as if comprehending its master.

The beetle was also actually a female, but that didn't seem to be of any issue for Alexander, he kept the same name anyways.

With his new Rookie companion, a Bug and Earth Type Monster Pet, the group quickly began to search for something that Gwendolyn could catch this time, although she wasn't all that interested in these monsters.

However, his son insisted in that she had to get a second monster, so she decided that it was fair, and after Frank told her that they were a way to channel her true powers through this world's laws without being suppressed, she had to accept.

After all, this was a new world filled with new challenges, she couldn't simply act cocky over it because any danger could emerge now, and might threaten her life or that of her child.

"Hmm… I wonder what I could find here… there are just bugs and rodents, right? I already got my own rodent so it would be kind of boring to get another one… but a bug… I don't know if there is any bug compatible with my element of fire." Said Gwendolyn.

"Come on, I am sure you'll find one, don't worry about the details and let's enjoy the day." Said Frank.

Gwendolyn sighed as she smiled back at him.

"Yeah, sure, okay…" she said as she smiled back.

And just as they were wandering around the forest, a sudden attack reached them from the back!

FLAAAASH!

A small nut flew from the branch of a tree, reaching them in an instant!

CLAASAH!

"W-What the?!" asked Frank.

"That's… a nut? Eh?" asked Gwendolyn, grabbing it and then glaring upwards.

What they found was a very angered squirrel! It had thrown a nut at them for some weird and bizarre reason! What was wrong with this damn rodent?!

But this one… Gwendolyn felt it, she looked at him with her bright orange eyes and found on this adorable squirrel the creature she wanted!

Frank quickly began to look into the guide manual he had, finding out the squirrel was a mildly common creature this time around, it was named Acorn-Shooting Squirrel, and it looked very much like a normal squirrel minus the orange patterns around its tail and belly.

It also had the ability to put acorns inside of its cheek pouches and fire them like deadly projectiles, it is said that they're the nightmare of young monster pet trainers because they can attack from afar like snipers.

These devilish squirrels were spotted by Frank and company right away after entering the forest, but they ignored them due to Ruby's presence until now, where a bold one decided that it was the best idea to just attack them when they stepped into its acorn-producing territory!

There were many acorn trees all around this area, and it seemed that these monsters battled for the territory of their food source by shooting at one another with it…

"Chuuu!"

The squirrel gave a little and menacing cry, but this only melted Gwendolyn's heart faster.

"Flare! Go catch him!"

Gwendolyn quickly ordered her Blazing Rodent to enter into action, as the beautiful and shiny, red-colored mouse flew into action, propelling itself with flames, it began to jump in the middle of the air!

"Chuu! Chuu!"

The mouse reached the squirrel, as the squirrel's eyes shone brightly!

"CHUU!"

FLASH!

It suddenly fired high-speed acorn towards the mouse!

However, the mouse evaded in time and even used the acorn in midair to jump over it and gain a greater speed in the middle of the air!

"CHU?!"

The squirrel, hororized by the amazing agility of Flare, was quickly beaten down, as the mouse used its tail to clash over its head, throwing the squirrel into the ground from high in the tree!

CLASH!
