Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Stalking is Legal Here, Right?

When Emi woke up, she didn't unfurl her wings right away. First and foremost, she lamented the fact she's still here, then she got over it, she couldn't do anything about it. And second, her wings were just too soft. She was enjoying being rapped in them. If there was a heaven, this was it. But she needed to stretch before she got a cramp.

So she unfurled her wings, reluctantly, and stretched out her limbs. It would be a great feast to the eyes to anyone. As this might not have been mentioned, but she was very beautiful. Her skin was rosy white and smooth, not to mention soft, and a slim and lithe figure.

Her face was perfect. It was an oval shape with an adorable button nose, with rosy colored lips and irises that looked like black pearls that sparkled like stars.

"Well, since you're done checking me out, let's see my stats." she said.

"I have to assign points." She said with a pensive expression.

Her biggest advantage was definitely her mobility. Mobility was her speed and control, which were respectfully agility and dexterity. To pull off more complex moves in the air, she needed control. She needed to be able to do it fast, too. To keep this advantage, she was going to invest in them.

With speed and control, her flight speed would also be tremendously faster. Cutting down on travel time.

She needed a little strength, too. The more strength, the more strength she can put into her wings, also speeding her up. It would increase her grip as well as her attack power, too. She needed some stamina, too. She was dead tired yesterday after all that hunting.

Intelligence was useless for now since she couldn't use magic yet. But now that she thought about it, magic! That sounded like lots of fun. That'd be a definite goal from now on. Now, with all that running through her head, she distributed her points.

"There." she said with a satisfied smile.

As soon as she confirmed it, she felt cold shiver run through her body. It didn't last longer than a second. When it completely disappeared, she felt completely different.

"That was insane." She mumbled under her breath.

She wasn't excepting that. Didn't the changes usually happen without notice? It felt like someone dipped their hands into her very cells and injected a bunch of nitrogen. Number one on the list of weirdest feelings she ever felt. And this list was only going to increase in the future, which she dreaded.

She was almost in tears. She didn't know what she was doing, what her goals where. There was so much going on.

Slap*

"Sigh, I gotta get myself together!" She said with red cheeks.

"I gotta get good!" She said cheering herself up, and started to giggling to herself.

She started with a jump and soared into the air. It was easier to take off since her wings had more strength in them. She could feel the wind with her entire body. The balance it takes to fly is incredible, with the increase in dexterity it was easier to keep her balance. How she flied before was based off instinct, it was much harder.

She could see the entire forest from up high. What she had to do now was decide her goals. What she needed to do now and what could wait. What she needed the most at the moment was information about where she was.

"Maybe a map?" She mumbled.

She didn't need a map specifically, she just thought it would be useful. What she really needed the most was to secure food, water, and information on how to get out of this damned forest. Her secondary goal was to reach level fifty. She really wanted to learn magic. She also wondered if there were other otherworders in this world.

While she was in deep thought she flew along the river. It seemed that dexterity also heightened senses, she could hear everything a whole lot clearer than before.

"Wait! Voices?!" She said with full shock.

She was happy to hear another persons voice. She hurriedly strained her ears to hear where it was coming from.

Straining her ears she could tell that the voices were coming from up stream. Emi flew higher into air to make sure she was out of sight. She flew over the trees searching with her hearing and sight. Finally she could hear them clearly, she hurriedly landed and slowly crept up to the sounds of chatter. When she was as close as about 25 meters she climbed a tree to get a good view of them.

She could hear them talking about how they can't wait to get out of this starter forest for beginning adventures. They talked about how they where going to go and hunt some real monsters. Emi didn't really understand what they were talking about, but she was sure it contained important pieces of information.

After climbing the tree she could roughly see them, three males and two females. They were getting ready to move and were packing up there make shift camp. She wondered were they were going. She thinking about whether she should follow them or not. They could be going to civilization or they could be hunting slimes.

'Do they use the system, too? Or do slimes have other uses that I'm unaware of.' She thought that there could be no other reasons they could be here. Well, they could be here for fighting experience. They didn't seem to have an inventory though, so that said something.

She didn't want to meet them based on the fact that she had two horns growing out of her head. She would have to keep her hood up all the time and that just seemed a little inconvenient for both parties, not to mention suspicious.

'Well, I'm following them right now, so...' she thought she was pretty suspicious herself.

She watched them from afar while they packed the last of their stuff into their bags. They started moving up stream along the river. Emi mused what was at the end this river. She'd been following it now these adventures were following it. She mused that there might be some kind of village at the end of it. She started to follow slowly from the sky. Sense she didn't want to be noticed she lagged behind, that way they couldn't see her.

As she followed them she noticed that they would kill the slimes along the way and then take the goo that made the slime up. They would put it in a specific jar they carried. Like one jar carried the blue goo and another carried red goo. Emi was confounded about why they would do such a thing. It honestly grossed her out.

"All slimes deserve death." She mumbled glaring at the jars.

As time passed it the sun was high in the sky and her stomach was empty. She would drink water to fight off hunger but it was a little hard. The people she was following had stopped a few times to rest. When they did that she decided to do what they were doing. She would test her skills against the slimes and after killing them, reluctantly store the goo in her inventory. She thought there had to be a reason they were doing it.

While she hunted, she found out more about slimes. Their color decide their attribute. Such as Blue was water ,red was fire, etc. This was interesting to Emi. She found that the water cannon that the blue slime shot could brake boulders. She thought that was very interesting. She found more of such fascinating info about other slimes.

The green slime it becomes acidic 10 minutes after the slime dies. The reason for that is the slime controls the acidic levels in its body with its core. After it dies, the restriction stops, and whatever the green goo is touching melts. It shoots acid, very deadly.

But wait, there's more, the red slime can shoot flames. She truly realizes how lucky she was the day before. To tell the truth she learned about the red and blue slime yesterday night but she didn't run into another green slime until today. She heard this info from the beginner adventures she was following.

She also met a metal, cyan, and brown slime. The Cyan slime shot wind blades from its body, it was tied for first with greeny. Its attacks were insanely fast and sharp. The brown slime was tricky, since it didn't just throw rocks at you. It could also summon rock spikes under you. Emi was lucky she fought from the air.

Then there was this shiny grey slime, a metal slime, depending on the metal. It was too hard, the outer case hardened when struck. This could be worked around by letting it shoot metal spikes at you. Emi had really hard time figuring this part out. When the metal leaves the metal slime it becomes vulnerable for one second before it can harden again.

"sigh, I'm really hungry and tired." Emi said as she was following the group behind.

That's when she saw it. Since she was above the trees she could see it. A village of some sort right on her periphery.
