Chapter 121: Hunting Alone II

[Cooked meat

Description: Cooked meat of a rabbit. Regains 2 stamina and 1 hp if eaten.]

"This should be enough for the day." 

Taking a bite out of the cooked meat, its aroma got into his nose, making him flinch for a second. It was horrible. It smelled horrible and it was raw. It might be cooked on the outside, but it was still raw on the inside. Its taste didn't just stop with being raw, it also had some strange repulsive taste in it.

He didn't even know why it was so horrible.

Technically, food made by him should been good since his 'Eye of God' skill could precisely measure the amount of time needed to cook; where it should be cooked and how long it should be cooked and such in order to create a good food.

However, contradictory to his expectation, it didn't even reach the basic standard of proper food. On top of having a horrible taste, it wasn't even eatable. If it was eaten, one would definitely have a stomachache.

But its effects were still legit and the 5 stamina and 2 hp would be regained regardless of what effects it might bring. Besides, he also wanted to know what it might bring so he went on and ate it. 

[You have eaten Cooked Meat]

[+5 stamina]

[+2 hp]

"..."

For awhile, he didn't feel anything. It was just his normal body except that his body felt more energetic because his stamina had been regained. However, after some time, the after effects kicked in. 

A stomachache came in.

His stomach felt like it was turning and twisting to the wrong direction, messing up all of the contents inside it.

[You have gotten minor food poisoning]

[All attributes -10% for five minutes]

He might be in a food poisoning for awhile but his 5 stamina and 2 hp had been regained. It wasn't a bad deal at all. 

In conclusion, it was worth it.

...

During the day, he managed to accumulate two-thirds of the experience required to level up to level 9. With two other wolves, he would be able to reach lvl. 9. When the night comes, he would be easily able to complete this goal and reach lvl. 9. 

But then, it will be more dangerous during night as well. He had to be cautious. 

Strong wolves meant more danger and more of them meant even more danger. 

However, he was just thinking of killing the two wolves required to level up to level 9 before returning to the cave. If he were to go after more, he might just trip and resurrect in the town. 

And if he were to resurrect in the town, he would be caught by the guards and get thrown into the prison. 

He only had 2 lives. If he were to lose them, his future within this game will be gone. 

He didn't want that to happen. 

Looking out of the cave, the sun was setting; it was almost time for the night to come. The wolves should soon come out, so he should also prepare as well.

... 

After some time of meditating, he heard the howling of wolves. Opening his eyes, the sun had already set and the night had already come.

Using his skill, Eye of God, he pried outside only to be welcomed by the sight of many wolves gathered together. It seemed like an important occasion was happening.

Maybe they might be thinking of invading another monster race's region. 

Like in real life, monsters had their own territories. Around the Blue Wolf town was the Blue Wolves' territory and similarly, other towns and cities had their own monster territories. 

The Blue Wolf town was surrounded by 2 towns and 3 monster territories; the two towns were the Kotyl town and the Wind Glow town which both were surrounded by several monster races.

As the blue wolves were the dominant race around here, they had went and devoured all other monster races, leaving only the Blue Wolves as the monsters here in Blue Wolf town.

Their number had been climbing up continuously recently. So the amount of food they have to eat had also increased, making the animals around Blue Wolf town unable to keep up with them. 

They had already tried attacking the town but was stopped by the town guards and the mayor so they had set their eyes on the surrounding monster territories. 

The Black-Tailed Wind Deers, the Black Goblins, and the Orcs. 

Among the three, the Black Goblins were the weakest even though they had the most number. The other two were strong species that the Blue wolves can't defeat. They will be destroyed by them instead. 

So the Blue Wolves' target was likely to be the Black Goblins. They could easily overpower them with their individual power advantage. 

Unfortunately, their leaders had died off in a battle and new ones wouldn't spawn in a short amount of time. It would require at least 10 days for them to appear. 

However, they can't hold off their hunger for long. Therefore, they decided to attack the Black Goblins territory. Although it was likely that they won't attack all of them and only a portion of it. 

That would be enough to solve their hunger for now. 

But after another leader, they would likely attack at full force and destroy them and their base. With the Black Goblins in charge of the area, the animals in their territory ought to last a long time for them. 

.....

'If so, this should be a good chance for me. Since most of them will be attacking the Black Goblins, I won't need to worry about them ganging up on me. The chance will be low enough for me to ignore it.' with this thought, he moved on to his hunt. 

After searching for some time, he finally found blue wolves. The thing was, it could be said that there were 3 blue wolves. One lvl. 7 blue wolves and three blue wolf pups. 

It seemed like the companion of the lvl. 7 blue wolf had gone to the Black Goblins' territory along with the others in order to get food for its family. Pity that its family was going to get killed now. 

'I need to attack at least 2 fire arrows at the same time in order to kill it or else, it will ignore the attack and just kill me. So two fire arrows will be needed for it to be stopped and another for it to be killed.'

With this thought, he hid behind the wolf before casting a fire arrow. 

The fire arrow radiated a bright glow in the dark but as it happened behind the wolf, the wolf didn't notice it. 

So while keeping it in the air, he casted another fire arrow. 

Two was his limit in casting. Even if he wanted to cast another and kill the wolf, the two he was keeping would become unstable and break down or head off to another direction, becoming only a waste of mana.

His concentration just wasn't enough for the triple casting. 

Even now, he could feel that if he didn't shoot them soon enough, they will become unstable and break down.
