"Damn this cave is pretty creepy, HOW IS THERE MIST IN A TROPICAL ZONE?!" Night suddenly exclaimed, completely forgetting about the existence of a random cave and the small bit of tropical land a few minutes away from Aeternum.
Night walked forward and went along the path until he saw it open into a large dome and in the center was the injured boar he was hunting, it was trying to recover its wounds, seeing this Night was delighted and decided to use his inspect skill to see how much the boar recovered
Wild Boar (Injured)
Level 1
Grade: Field
Hp-40/200
Skills- Charge: Rushes forward in a straight line dealing 50% of PhyDmg
Night frowned as he realized he'd almost killed it before and the boar barely survived. He took one step and dashed to the boar changing to his daggers,
He jumped onto his knees while running which caused him to slide forward, he then rotated his body while doing so which lead to three cuts appearing on the already injured boar.
-7,-7,-6
The boar never expected Night to find it so quickly and couldn't react in time.
Night still on his knees jumped backward from that stance to distance himself more and changed to his bow and plucked at it 3 times before he rolled sideways while changing to his spear, he thrust forward dealing the final blow to the Field Grade mob.
-5,-2,-3,-10
Anyone seeing this would have their jaws to the ground, seeing the absolute skill and control Night displayed all while constantly switching between weapons and moving from place to place in such a way that it would complement the weapon he switched to.
However, Night was only shocked when he saw '-10' appear in orange color meaning he actually managed to break the boar's defense.

He looked at the new skills he learned and nodded in satisfaction, especially with his class-specific skills increasing by a grade:
Grand Master's Majestic arts+E: Unlock your inner potential and channel your energy into your weapons.
Weapon Mastery+E: Break class restrictions and become a master of all weapons!
Night smiled at his progress and then remembered he was still in an unknown cave.
Unfortunately no matter how quickly he realized he couldn't stop what was about to happen.
As soon as he turned around, it was as if a gale storm smashed into his face which threw him onto his back, he tried to analyze the possibilities of what that could've been and decided to roll as soon as he hit the ground, unfortunately for him as if the ground was just an illusion he passed straight through the ground and could feel himself falling.
When he opened his eyes he saw clouds all around him, he was free-falling from miles above ground, he figured he had about a minute or 2 at max before he hit the ground and soon started to think of what to do. For some reason, he was falling down faster than objects usually do.
Almost 1KM away, he had about 10 seconds and still hadn't come up with anything that could save him.
600M
'Come on Luke think', Night thought to himself.
200M
He closed his eyes just before he hit land as he was practically helpless in that situation.
'There's no way I died on day 1, this isn't a goddamned isekai anime for this to randomly happen!!' he screamed internally.
.

He opened his eyes and a strange light fell straight at him as he barely saw a figure looking at him,
"Kami-Sama?" his inner weeb questioned
'Maybe this is an isekai...' he thought.
"eh? heck nah don't even compare me to that being "The green-haired child grunted.
"come on now brother, after what you just did to him, he's probably not even in his senses," said the child with pinkish-purple hair.
"Children? huh? Where am I?" Night questioned as he tried to get up.
"Still in the cave, young mortal, and who are you calling a child? do you wish to be thrown into the sky again ?" the green-haired child asked
Realizing what had just happened he backed up while touching his face and body as if he had just died."I'm alive?"Night questioned
"Don't worry, what brother just made you experience was just an illusion, hehe.."The pink-haired child laughed.
After processing the fact that he almost died, Night introduced himself as he figured they weren't normal kids,
"We're Caduceus" Both of them said together.
Without questioning how they both had the same name and how they somehow said it out loud at the same time. Night decided to ask them a few more questions before he had time to process everything.
Both these children were Caduceus and due to certain events, they got separated from their master. Realizing that this smelled like a quest Night asked them if they needed help getting back to their master, however, both of them pointed towards the boar that Night just killed.
"We aren't allowed to leave until you kill the monster there," they said in unison
"huh but I just kil-" he looked back to show them the boar's body, only for him to see the boar's corpse bubbling. Night couldn't believe what was happening, not only was the boar regenerating but it was also larger and had bigger tusks this time.
"What the .. -", He looked back at them hoping for some answers.
Nodding, both of them said, "you are lucky to have found this cave at such a low level and even luckier to have killed this boar in here. If it wasn't for the boar a Manticore would've spawned and a Manticore isn't something a player without proper gear can handle"
'Lucky? me?' he thought, he now focused his gaze onto the abomination in front of him.
Night gulped and used inspect,

Night wasn't someone who would doubt himself but looking at the situation he thought to himself 'isn't this a little too much?'
Regardless he was determined to hunt the beast not only for the quest but even to test himself.
Just like he expected, a notification popped up,
