Chapter 476: [Bonus Chapter] Battle With A Rock Monster Part 2
Days had pa.s.sed, and Kana was really getting annoyed. She attacked and destroyed this d.a.m.n rock monster so many times now, but no matter what, it kept coming back to life! In a fit of annoyance, Kana yelled out: "Why won"t you just die!?" She pouted as she watched once again as the rock monster regenerated itself after being destroyed for the umpteenth time.
"Kana, why are you being so noisy?" Aruya asked as she came out of her summon s.p.a.ce rubbing her eyes sleepily. "Hmm? Why are you fighting with an earth Elemental? You would need to destroy the entire world just to kill it..."
Kana froze as she was about to fire off another barrage of fireb.a.l.l.s at the stupid rock monster. "The what and the who now!?"
"You didn"t realize it? That is an earth elemental. It is one of the only elementals who do not have much intelligence. But they have amazing defense, strength, and regenerative abilities. They are only weak in areas where there is no earth, such as the sky. But on land of any kind, even if it was the ocean floor, they would be t.i.tans in their own right. You can blast them and melt them all you want, but they will just regenerate. They can be made of anything that comes from the ground besides pure water. You are quite lucky since most would not expect this giant thing to be an elemental. If you beat it down and force the contract, it will become your fourth elemental." Aruya explained.
"Then I will do just that!" Kana"s eyes were filled with excitement. She had never expected such a boon like this. Yawning, Aruya waved and disappeared without a word.
Kana waited for the earth elemental to become complete again before attacking, she wanted to make sure it was good and broken up. This time she didn"t waste any time forming ten giant b.a.l.l.s of fire and shooting them at the earth elemental. The earth elemental once again tried to s.h.i.+eld itself, but its s.h.i.+eld was quickly destroyed as Kana"s attacked slammed into it, melted through it, and then hit the earth elemental.
*Roar!*
The earth elemental roared in anger as it slammed into the ground in a heap of rubble. Kana knew this was her chance and quickly landed on top of it and began forming the contract with it. She felt some resistance and the contract circle almost broke, but she quickly infused it with more of her mana, strengthening the magic circle. After a few backs and forths, the contact finally succeeded.

"Not bad! Whoa!" Kana felt the ground underfoot begin shaking. As she slowly began to rise high into the sky. The Earth element she had just contracted had fully regenerated. "Now, this view is not bad. Wait, are you not bigger than before!?"
"My power has strengthened some after being contracted." A voice filled Kana"s head. It was a little rough around the edges, but it was a deep male voice.
"You"re the rock elemental?" Kana asked.
"That is correct, Master." The rock elemental replied.
"I see then. You need a name… Hmmm… How about… Ganjo! Since you are so strong and st.u.r.dy! What do you think?" Kana asked.
"Whatever Master decides. If Ganjo is my name, I will gratefully accept it." Ganjo replied.
"Then Ganjo it is! Hey Ganjo, are there any other strong monsters on this island?" Kana asked.
"Not that I know of. No monsters dared to get near me on most occasions. If they did, they would be squashed flat." Ganjo did not like being disturbed!
The men dressed in black on the s.h.i.+p were very confused. After days of fighting, the young girl was now casually sitting on the shoulder of the big rock monsters as if it was nothing! "Did she subdue it!?"
"It doesn"t matter if she did or not. Right now, we can consider that island as hers. We will need to find a new place to get our flowers. It is best not to fight beings such as them." The leader of the men dressed in black did not wish to get into a fight with the girl, who is able to fight for days on end with the rock monster. He was not seeking his own death. At their leader"s command, they did not wish to end up fighting the strange girl, so they quickly made their leave.
Kana had Ganjo make his way to the cliff she had settled on for her base. When she reached it, she got off and looked up at the ma.s.sive rock and asked: "Can you shrink yourself?"
"Yes.." Ganjo"s whole body shook as he began to shrink until he was about the same height as Kana and stood by her side. Kana smiled and patted his rocky head before bringing him to her small base. "We will be leaving here tomorrow, so I will have you go into your summon s.p.a.ce while flying over the ocean. I will be flying around for a bit to find a place to level up."
"If Master wishes to fight high level monsters there is a place far out at sea that no man has set foot on that has monsters higher in strength than those of this realm." Ganjo"s information caused Kana to become instantly happy!
"That would be perfect but Ganjo, how do you know this?" Kana asked.
"Because I am able to sense the strength of those around the entire world as long as their feet touch the land."
