East Meet West

Chapter 64: Trouble 1

64- Trouble 1

I picked up the few Violet Leaf Orchid which grew on a bush and stored them in the storage box. And ate one Violet Leaf Orchid.

The Violet Leaf Orchid tasted bitter but nevertheless I ate it and swallowed it completely. After waiting for few minutes, nothing happened. I smiled bitterly and realized that it was my wishful thinking that my chances will be high enough to get a Strength or Agility stat.

Shaking my head, I continued walking with Armelia and continued using Observation skill.

Like this I started collecting all the useful herb, medicines and any rare material which was found along the way and stored them in the Storage box.

And finally, the notification that I was waiting for rang.

ding

(Observation) skill has levelled up

(Observation skill level 3) upgraded to (Observation skill level 4)

Reading this a happy smile appeared on my face and Armelia who was walking beside me noticed that. And asked me

Why are you smiling?

Hearing Armelias question, I replied

Nothing, I just felt that today my luck is good as I am finding so many herbs, medicines and material along the way. Which made me happy.

Armelia nodded and then continued walking.

Also, along the way, we encountered many monsters and I used the Observation skill on them and killed them for exp.

Like this I started a killing spree and harvesting spree. Whatever monster or herb or medicine or material that I encountered along the was harvested or killed and then stored into the Storage box. Also, along the way I levelled up 3 times and earned about 120 Free stat points. And the Storage box was nearly packed with monster corpses and the things like herbs, medicines, materials, etc that I obtained along the way.

After thinking for a few moments, I decided to sell few corpses of monster to the shop. Although, I could buy extra space from the shop, but I decided not to do so. As instead of spending money on that, I could empty some space by selling the monster corpses of Awakening stage and Beginning stage monsters, and along with that I can money.

So, after selling the corpses of Awakening stage and Beginning stage monsters, nearly half of the space in Storage box was freed and I obtained 63,000 sikka. And used 60,000 sikka and bought 6 cubic meters of space for Storage box.

Actually, there were certain monsters or parts which could be sold for double the price offered by the system in the market or merchants or auctions. But here in the forest there is no guarantee of life, and getting things for survival is better. Instead of gaining small benefits, it would be better to sell them for now and later kill few more monsters and get good price at markets or auctions.

Finally, after walking for an hour or so, we reached the cliff from which we jumped into the pond water to escape from the White fang wolf and its pack.

Then we started walking along the way from which we arrived here as it would be easier for us to reach the area where we met the White fang wolf and its pack. From there, I know the path through which we can get out of the Inner area of Dark forest and reach outer area.

Along the way I told the system to add 25 Free stat points to Strength, Agility, Defense, Sense, Stamina and Intelligence stats each. Because I cannot ignore the fact that we are in the Inner area of dark forest, and there is a high chance that we might encounter monsters that are in transformation stage. So, it would be better for me to increase my stats. And, I had already 216 Free stat points collected.

ding

25 Free stat points to Strength, Agility, Defense, Sense, Stamina and Intelligence stats each have been added.

The addition of this Free stat points bought a surge of energy. I felt my muscles, bones and skin become stronger. My senses became sharper.

I clenched my fists and felt the surging power. I felt like my current strength is equal to my previous self, which was at the peak of Evolver stage. I was excited by this feeling and my body could not help but tremble with excitement. But luckily, Armelia did not notice this and I calmed my emotions and continued walking.

As I am in the Inner area of the dark forest, I activated the Stealth skill, which will be useful in two ways.

First, it will hide my presence to certain extent.

Second, as the Stealth skill is in constant use, it will level up soon.

So, as we continued walking, my harvesting and killing spree continued.

Found Violet dew flower

Found Moon shadow rock

Level up

But this time, I did not kill many monsters. Because I felt that my fight could alert nearby monsters and then we will get surrounded, which is not a good thing. Hence, I decided to cease my killing spree and only continued harvesting.

ding

(Stealth) skill has levelled up

(Stealth level 3) levelled up to (Stealth level 4)

Finally, the Stealth skill has levelled up. And my presence is more hidden. Maybe, Armelia sensed something and looked at me & exclaimed in surprise.

Hey, your presence hiding ability is good.

I did not reply, I just laughed hollowly and continued walking.

Armelia, was a little dissatisfied with not receiving any reply and it was clearly visible on her face but I acted as if I did not see that.

We suddenly stopped, as my senses were telling me that a powerful monster was nearby and looking at Armelias reaction, I confirm that even she sensed something. Suddenly, a deafening roar came from a certain direction,

ROARR...

========================================

Let's make a few goals.

Mass Release on Monday:

100 Power stones = 2 Chapters

120 Power stones = 3 Chapters

140 Power stones = 4 Chapters

(Only if I reach this goal, will I be Mass releasing the chapters. Because I have started working in a company, and am tired when I return home. So, If I could see your support through this, I can reassure myself that Yeah, I can still work on this novel and can also start new works for my readers.)
