I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 113: Creature Rollcall
It took more time than he planned to gather all his creatures.
It was enough to cause a stir around town as Logan had Scorch, Silis, Luna, Krexa, and Zephyr, who had arrived early to guide them into the mountain.
Dust, one of his work horses who Kai got friendly with and began using as a mount, also joined them.
Digger, who had evolved to his next form, was a large fierce mole with thirty-centimeter claws and now stood at two meters tall. He could use his powerful legs to walk like a bipedal beast normally.
As for his new beasts, Voltar the mantis joined in.
Noctur, a ferret-like creature, also joined.

It was a rare dual-type creature that excelled in both darkness and earth magic.
Using this, he was like a ninja on the battlefield, moving swiftly while undercover and forming the terrain to help hide himself.
Given that there were many bears in the wild, Logan took in an orphaned of one of these creatures and had it trained.
Its water typing made it difficult to find a proper caretaker, but now the small creature was able to stand three meters high.
Riptide was shedding his winter coat, making his new fur grow in a dark brownish-blue hue. The transition from light brown winter fur to his new coloring, caused by the melting snow, made him look imposing.
Riptide was one of the beasts Logan did not need to take care of personally, as he was powerful enough to fend for himself.
War was also one of these new beasts.
He was a hog who stumbled, hurt, into Logan’s camp.
Logan healed him and gained his loyalty.
Now he comes and goes, being smart enough to look for his own food in the forest, as well as having a mate who was not part of Logan’s tamed creatures.
Finally, Logan had his own cat beast.
It was just like Saber; it was very difficult to find.
Only during a dangerous journey in the mountain was Logan able to come across the elusive beast, who did not like to be near humans.
The best part is that it used an element that his species did not usually use, like humans, animals would also favor a certain element.
Just as there weren’t many humans who could harness the power of electricity, there were animals who could or did not use certain elements that many of their species commonly did.
As for his maned leopard, he was a dark-skinned panther, a rare variant who mainly used dark magic.
Saber, for example, used earth magic, the most common for creatures to use in this world.
The last of his new animals was a stag, another which Logan could not let pass without taming.
It had rare light magic, which was extremely useful.
It was able to heal, recover quickly after a fight, and had inexhaustible stamina. He would also be a perfect candidate for use as a mount.
Its three-meter body, which was previously a normal-sized deer, was now a moose-like creature that resembled something from Earth’s ice age animals.
Each horn was the size of Logan’s body, with sharp edges that made it a menace to any predators that tried to hunt it.
"Well then, we are all ready," Logan said to the group who was waiting near the door.
Rubina’s own bird had grown to three times its original size and became a Grand Aurolious Fowl.
Its large size made a flap of its wing radiate heatwaves that helped with the crops during the cold days.
"We need to hurry. Have all those that are slow ride on Silis. As for the rest, get on various large creatures as mounts. We need to be there within two hours. Move out!" Logan called out while getting on top of Scorch, who roared loudly as if announcing his master’s order.
The ground shook outside the walls as the Great Eartheater hopped out as if it was a dolphin jumping through the sea.
It was Logan’s largest beast and one that not only grew twice as big, but also changed drastically.
Its squishy, worm-like body gained snake-like scales, and its various rows of teeth grew sharp enough to be like a blender.
Logan did not think he could have done what he had previously did to tame the beast with the way his Eartheater was now.
It had created various passages underground that made even Logan want to visit later.
The large beast took half of those who were on Silis’s back, helping with the load.
The group was finally ready.
Using Zephyr to guide them through the fastest route and its ability to reduce wind pressure, the group was able to speed through the longest part of the journey.
Within an hour and a half, they reached the third mountain.
The hardest part would be the climb, but this proved to be an easy task with the Eartheater, who dug a zigzag trail to make it easier for those behind it to climb.
As they reached halfway up the mountain, Valeria came into sight.
She was next to Saber, who had also grown in size, looking more like a cross between a sabretooth tiger and a lion.
Logan waved to his mentor, who he had not seen for a few days.
She had dedicated most of her time to finding the entrance of the cave and exploring possible entry and exit points.
"Took you long enough. I thought it would be night before you got all the creatures here. Now then, let’s hurry. I fear an invasion soon. That’s the only thing that would make all the creatures become as displaced as they are now," Valeria began while waiting for the group of humans to close in to start speaking.
"Alright, now then, I have found three exits and various tunnels that connect them. This is not your normal cave system, but something carefully planned out. Given that we found our fanged friend not too far from here, I believe it’s the work of one of its kind. However, I did not find any within the cave," Valeria said, trying to be discreet about talking about vampires.
"So is it like an abandoned mine?" Kai asked while looking at the entrance of a nearby cave.
Its opening looked handmade.
"No, it’s more like an abandoned laboratory…" a voice said from behind them.
