East Meet West

Chapter 46: Food 2

46- Food 2

As the wild boar came to us, for now it solves our food issue and the exp that I can get from killing this wild boar can help me level up at least once. And also provide me with Free stat points.

But then I remembered that Armelia is also with me, I dont want to her to kill or damage this boar as I will lose exp equivalent to the amount of damage she has dealt to the boar.

So, I said to her

Armelia, you stay back, I can deal with this boar and dont help me.

Hearing me, Armelia immediately said

But earlier you were injured, so let me do it

Hearing her, I immediately declined and said,

No, I can handle it. So, I hope you dont intervene

Looking at my face, Armelia reluctantly nodded her head and backed away to leave some space for us.

Seeing Armelia move away, I turned back my attention to the wild boar, but the wild boar was now running towards me and it was only 3 meters away from me.

The next second, the wild boar was in front of me and it was about to crash into me, but I still managed to react and dodged the wild boar's attack.

brush

The wild boar managed to brush my clothes and due to the wild boars momentum, 5-6 meters of distance was produced between us, until it came to a stop and turn around to look at me. Once again preparing for another attack on me.

Looks like I misjudged the wild boars speed and intelligence.

While my attention was focused on Armelia and I was trying to convince her, the wild boar attacked at the same time while I was distracted. I dont know if its a coincidence or its intelligence, but if my speed and reaction was not enough then maybe I would have got hurt very badly.

Plus, its speed is much faster when compared to the Refinement stage guard, that I have fought earlier. Maybe this wild boar is at the peak of Refinement stage and will step into Evolver level soon.

But luckily, I managed to avoid the wild boars attack, as my Agility stats points are above 150 and now my current speed it at least 40 to 50 % comparable to the speed when I entered Evolver stage (Before crippled or poisoned by friends).

Roar

The wild boar roared and charged at me again, but this time its speed was increased by at least 10%.

Although it increased its speed, I can still manage it. But to avoid prolonging this fight as some other monster or White Fang Wolf might come, I decided to end this fight faster. So, I took out the knife from the waist belt to finish the wild boar in one strike.

I kept the knife at my waist belt, but not in the storage box because the knifes Stat can only be applied or added to my Original Stat when I am carrying it. And who knows when will I encounter a difficult situation, and due to little lack of stats I get injured. So, instead of encountering situations like that, it's better to carry the knife.

And its not like I am carrying some boulder or weight, it's just a small knife. Plus, the 1 luck stat is important to me, to prevent all the bad things happening.

Slash

As the wild boar got close to me, and was only a half meter away, I slashed the knife with full strength toward its neck. And before the boar could react, the knife touched the wild boars skin and a deep cut was made. And I dodged the wild boars attack and it went past me.

Unfortunately, the wild boar did not die and was only bleeding. But to prevent the wild boar from creating distance between us or in case it decides to escape, I immediately followed back and made another attack.

This time I pierced the wild boar's abdomen with the knife and made a huge cut.

SQUEAL

Lots of blood and even some of its intestines were coming out of the wild boar's abdomen. The wild board made lot of painful noises and but to prevent it from alerting other monsters, I immediately took out the Practice Sword from the Storage Box and beheaded the wild boar.

When I heard the systems notification, without even looking at its body; I can confirm that the wild boar is dead.

I was still vigilant regarding alerting other monsters or humans or White Fang Wolf and its pack of wolves. So, I told Armelia

Armelia, take this wild boars body back to cave. I will follow you back after I gather wood and other materials for cooking. It is not safe for us stay outside as the earlier sounds of our fighting or bloods smell of wild boar might draw other monsters to us.

Armelia quickly nodded and picked up the wild boars body with her petite figure and moved toward the pond. The wild boars size is nearly equal to Armelias body size.

Although her actions were funny, I got confused and asked

Armelia, why dont you store that in the Storage ring, it will be easier in getting back to the cave, right?

Hearing my call, Armelia stopped and said panickingly,

I am sorry, I dont have any Storage ring with me

Although her answer was normal, but I dont understand why is she panicked?

Ignoring this, I told Armelia

Ok, leave this wild boars body to me and go back to cave. I will bring wood and body.

Armelia nodded and dived into the pond.

I quickly placed the wild boars body in the Storage box and started looking for dry woods and also to see If I could find any ingredients to eat.

After few minutes, I gathered dry woods and few edible mushrooms.

Luckily, I did not encounter any monster or human on my way back and I entered the pond.

I swam back to the cave and exited the water.

When I got out of water, I saw Armelia standing near the shore. Seeing me return, she walked towards me or to be exact she hurried towards me.

Seeing her action, I became vigilant. But she stopped at least 2 metes away from me. Seeing this I became more confused. And asked

Armelia is something wrong?

Armelia said

I...No, it's nothing. It's just that I dont like dark places.

Oh...Ok.

So, thats how it is, she is scared of dark places and when she saw me coming back, she moved towards me and wanted to stay close.

Well, I got wood and some mushrooms. Let's go inside and roast meat.
