Chereads / How (NOT) Survive in Another World / Chapter 25 - Monster! (1)

Chapter 25 - Monster! (1)

...

While I'm still lying on the floor, I start reading Elizabeth's notifications

"Oh, Light-Beam Wolf? That's a good name! Anyway! After killing only one monster, I leveled up three times! That's really good!

Besides that, what are these Reinforcement Points? Do they serve the same thing as Status Points?

Well, whatever! I had better take the wolf's body and get out of here!"

I try to get up, but then a dizziness hits me and I fall sitting on the floor

I feel a lot of pain in my head and I start to get pale and sweat buckets.

"Argh! Huehue! Everything has a price! That mental state is no different!"

With that in mind, I give up trying to get up

Instead, I decide to sit on the floor, and wait until my head stops spinning, while I'm at it, I realize something

"Now that I think about it, I've been able to get into that mental state for some time! If I'm not mistaken… The first time I got into that mental state. It was just a few days before escaping Hell! That means that even after almost five years, I still haven't done the most important thing I could have done! That's... I didn't give him a name!"

At this moment, the scene of my death comes to mind

'If I had entered this mental state, a little earlier at that time, maybe I would have managed to dodge the bullet'

"Okay, I'm going to call this mental state [Bullet Time]! Because with you, in the future I will be able to dodge bullets and other more dangerous things!"

The second I say that, I hear a little beep, just like when Elizabeth is about to show me some notification.

After hearing this, I remain silent waiting for the notification

However, even after wait for a few seconds nothing happens

"Huh? Was it just my imagination? Anyway! I think the last time I had a [Bullet Time], was at the bank! I didn't even notice the side effects at that time! Oh, maybe it was because I was already feeling the pain of losing an arm! Yeah, That makes sense to me!"

I sit on the floor for a few minutes catching my breath while I look at the corpse of the big wolf I just killed.

"Phew! That was close! Well, in the end, my bet was right! He really let his guard down! Maybe it was because I missed that attack. I think, he took that as a sign of despair! Huehuehue! Little did he know that my goal was never to hit him, but just to position the spear near his feet! Speaking of spear."

I look in the direction where the pieces of my broken spear are scattered

"Sigh! It's completely destroyed! Well, if I take into account the time it took me to find the right wood until when I sharpened the spear. It took me a little over an hour to finish the spear!"

After saying that, I shift my gaze from the broken spear to the corpse of the big wolf

"Furthermore, now that I have killed this guy, if nothing unusual happens, I will have food for a few more days! Besides, I will be able to make some cool items, using this wolf's bones and fur! Yeah, seeing it that way, there's no reason to be sad!"

Having managed to cheer myself up successfully, and already being rested, I try to get up

However, when I do this, I feel a twinge from my back

"Ouch! Damn it! I had forgotten that that attack scratched me! By the way, what was the result of that attack?

I remember that, I heard a loud explosion!"

After getting up, I shift my vision in the direction of where the wolf attacked, so I freeze.

All the trees in which the attack hit were disintegrated, the trail continues for about a hundred meters

and ends in a large mountain in the background that is completely destroyed.

"Damn! Now I understand why it's called Light-Beam Wolf! Wait! Now that I think this is a... Frank Radical Beam!

That is AMAZING! I finally understand why you didn't live with a pack! You were too cool to do that! Man, you have my respect!"

After a few seconds of watching the destruction caused by the attack

I then turn my attention to the wolf's corpse and notice that blood is leaking.

"Oops, I have to get out of here! After all, I don't know if the noise attracted any monsters… but that blood certainly will!"

I approach the corpse and try to lift it up and then I am confused.

"Wait! Why is this so light? No, it is not light, if it were. It would not have made so much noise when it hit the floor!

It means that I am stronger. Nevertheless, since when?"

I walk over to the broken piece of spear that is lying next to the wolf's body, and pick it up

Then start swinging, trying to see if I feel any difference

"No! It's the same weight! Maybe, it's just my body, that is stronger from the start and I didn't realize it! Yeah, It makes sense!

I probably, didn't realize it. Because I was, too busy exploring this new world! Well, better leave it for later and get out of here!"

Having reached that conclusion, I lift the big wolf and place it on my back

When I do that, I feel my back hurts

However, I quickly ignore the pain and start run away, from this place where the battle happened.

I keep running for about five minutes, trying to figure out where I am

When I find out, I change the direction of my race to that of my base.

After a more few minutes of running, I finally arrive my base

Being a little tired, I place the wolf's body on the floor

Then, I lie face down on the floor, since my back is still injured.

"Damn, this wolf is not heavy but it is very big! This fact became it very difficult to carry it comfortably! Besides that, I had to make several detours, so as not to encounter other monsters! What a pain in the ass! I hope it was worth the effort!

Well, I had better get up! Since, if I keep rest like this, I'll end up sleeping! And that doesn't seem like a good idea under the current circumstances!"

I quickly put my hands on the floor and get up

After getting up, I slowly start to walk over to the wolf's body

"Okay, with what, am I going to cut you? I don't want to damage the fur too much! After all, I can make clothes out of it!"

At this moment, I realize something and start laughing

"Huehuehue! It doesn't even seem like a few hours ago, that I was complaining about what to wear or eat!

However now, here I am, worried about how I'm going to cut this wolf's body without damaging its fur!

My ancestors would be proud of how I adapted to the situation! Huehuehue!"

After laughing alone, for a few more seconds, I start to think about, how to cut the wolf's body

"Well, usually to do that I think you need a very sharp knife to do that. However, I don't have that right now!

So, I think I'm going to have to use a stone instead. This may end up damaging a little bit of the wolf's fur.

However, again, I don't have a knife! So the sharp stone will have to do!"

Having reached that conclusion, I start to look around

Looking for the stone that I used a few hours ago to do to make my spear.

"Oh, there it is! Hmm... I didn't notice this before. However, when I was using the stone to sharpen that wood... I ended up sharpening the stone too! Well, this is very good a quite convenient, under the current circumstances!"

After picking up the stone, I go to the wolf body

Once there, I use the sharp side of the stone to cut and separate the fur from the wolf's flesh

About thirty minutes later, I finish cutting and separating the wolf's body

Then, I start dividing his body parts into four different stacks

On the first stack, I place the bones, of the wolf, which are golden and very shiny

On the second stack, I place the wolf's fur, which I took care not to damage too much.

On the third stack, I place all the meat, muscles and organs, of the wolf, which still look useful or edible

Finally, on the last stack, I place a small Golden ball, which I found where the wolf's heart should be!

Having finished dividing the wolf's entire body

I get up and walk to the third stack, I squat down, grab some pieces of meat

I look carefully at the bloody pieces of meat in my hand and whisper to myself

"It is strange, that since I arrived in this world. The raw meat, it tastes better than I remember! Perhaps, it is because the meat that those suckers, gave me to eat when I was in Hell. It was not fresh, just like what I've been eating in this world! Well, whatever! Let's eat!"

After that, I start to devour the pieces of meat that are in front of me

"Yeah- Chomp! -As I imagined- Chomp! This is much better- Chomp! -than those pieces of shit- Chomp! -that I had to eat in Hell! Gulp!"

At this time, while I'm still chewing the wolf's flesh

I hear a beep, followed by a notification from Elizabeth

[+5 Reinforcements Points acquired...]

Before even reading the content of the notification, I involuntarily say

"Chomp! Yeah- Chomp! -Yeah- Chomp! - I already know- Chomp! - Elizabeth- Chomp!"

However, when I read the message, I quickly finish chewing the meat in my mouth

"Chomp -wait! Chomp! -what? Chomp!"

After swallowing the meat in my mouth, I belch

Then I quickly turn my attention to the notifications

"Gulp! Burp! Well, where were we? Oh, I remember! The notifications! Let me see!"

In doing so, I realize that it is almost the same notification

That I received about an hour ago, when I killed the I killed the Light-Beam Wolf

"I remember hearing something like that earlier. The only difference was that the number of Reinforcement Points!

In that notification, was only 5 points! While in the previous notification, there was 20 points! Anyway! At that time, I just ignored the message! However, now I have some free time! So let's see what the hell these Reinforcement Points are! Status!"
