Chapter 4 - First Hunt

Sigh...

Saros took a deep breath and started walking on the main road heading towards the forest entrance, after walking for about 10 minutes he entered the borders of the forest and once he got in deeper he started smelling the wet dirt, the sounds of singing birds, and towering trees blocking the sun.

'Wow!, truly a beautiful scene! everything is just pleasant to look at, but even though the sight is beautiful things could get ugly here if I don't stay careful, I need to stay within 500 meters radius of the borders so that I don't get in dire situations.'

after searching for any kind of weak beast, Saros finally stumbled upon one, a black horned gazelle, holding his breath he started approaching it slowly as careful as he could but suddenly

Crunch...

Saros stepped on a leaf, although any other normal person would not have noticed the sound the black horned gazelle is an extremely wary animal with an affinity with the wind that increases its hearing ability, and so as soon as it heard the sound, it ran for its life leaving him behind in the dust.

'DAMN IT, there are all kinds of breakable things on the ground how am i supposed to not make a sound.... wait maybe this would work?!

'advanced settings'

[Gravitational defiance magnitude {0%} + -]

'increase it to 0.5 and activate'

Ding!

[Gravitational defiance magnitude is now {0.5%}]

Saros immediately rose one inch above the ground and with the help of telekinesis he started moving around, the reason he used telekinesis to move around is that the gravity defiance skill only ignores gravity not manipulate it.

after looking around for another 10 minutes he found a black horned gazelle again drinking from a small pond, this time he got his sword out before floating behind a tree and immediately switching telekinesis from his body to the sword aiming at the head then...

Swish

Although the black horned gazelle sensed the air movement, it was too late and the sword smoothly pierced the gazelle's head right through his forehead giving it a quick death, Saros then started removing the hide since it can be useful in the winter and then parting the bone from the meat preparing it for cooking.

Ding!

[you killed a low black horned gazelle]

[you've obtained a new title: First kill (increase EC taken by 10)]

[you gained 50 EC]

after slicing the meat pieces saros started collecting broken twigs and leaves and started a fire, the gazelle meat quickly roasted and started emitting an amazing scent.

Munch... NOM NOM NOM NOM

'Woah... I can't even remember the last time I tasted such amazing flavor, saros started eating the naturally robust meat, devouring it quickly as if his life depended on it, and once he finished a system notification popped up.

Ding!

[you can now transform yourself to a black horned gazelle {Cost:10 Origin Energy}]

[you can now add parts of the consumed beast to your body {Cost: 5 Origin Energy}]

[you've gained a new affinity: Basic wind element affinity]

[you've gained a new skill: Gazelle hearing]

[you've gained a new skill: Gazelle agility (increase agility by 2)]

'so many skills and I can even transform or alter my body! although I still need to somehow manipulate origin energy, still this could be really useful once I get stronger and start haunting trolls or massive wolves and all the other monsters, but right now I'm really weak even if I use telekinesis to attack from far away I probably won't be able to penetrate their skins or get past there elemental attacks, the only animals I can hunt for now are the gazelle and some low ants.... speaking of ants'

Rustle...

Saros heard the rustling of the bushes with his improved hearing so he quickly jumped high using gravity defiance and sent the sword flying down on the dog-sized ant's head spraying its brain juices on the ground.

Ding!

[you've killed a lower ant]

[you've gained 70 EC] [LEVEL 2/10 energy consternation 20/100]

[you've Leveled up: all stats will increase by 1]

'Ugh... how am I supposed to eat this thing' Saros touched the ant feeling how tough its body is 'I guess I have no choice'

Saros then broke one of the ant's legs roasting it on the still lit fire and started eating

Crunch.

It actually turned out to not be so bad since it had no flavor so the only thing he could taste is its crunchiness in his mouth, but that wasn't enough to give him a skill so he continued until the 5th leg.

Ding!

[you can now transform yourself to a Lower ant {Cost 10 OE}]

[you can now add parts of the consumed beast to your body {Cost: 5 OE}]

[you've gained a new skill: Lower ant strength (+3 strength and resistance)]

[you've gained a new skill: Lower ant carapace (+3 Defense and resistance)]

[you've gained a new skill: Lower ant scenes]

[you've gained new affinity: Basic Earth element affinity]

After Celebrating his generous gains again he decided to try something out, he lowered the gravitational defiance to 3% and floated 5 meters above the ground then using his telekinesis to move around while activating his ant's senses that could highlight everything going around in a 10 meters radius.

'it's time for the real hunt..hehe'
