rustle.... rustle
Akira crawled through the foliage that stood in his way
'A little more..
Akira crawled forward desperately as he saw a wild deer nibbling on the grass
Akira never learned archery, so since he's not good at archery he has to hunt with his sword and that's a bad idea for him...
hunting with a sword is very difficult because the movement of wild deer is very fast unless Akira has superhuman strength that can surpass the movement of wild animals like Kiara
currently Akira is just an ordinary human without superpowers plus a skill limiter..
'so the next quest is this..
Akira crawled while looking at the quest displayed in front of him
[hunt an animal with a skill limiter]
[Reward:1000 Power Point]
Akira can't use his skills in hunting because that can make Akira's skills in hunting become fragile, so he has to use the neolithic method of using swords and spears in hunting
Akira thinks that relying on skills from the system only makes Akira unable to find talents that Akira may not have discovered in himself, so he has to go beyond the limits within himself even if he has to sacrifice himself
rustle...rustle..
Akira tried to approach the deer slowly to pounce on it but..
'rustle!
'damn!
The deer ran away by jumping deeper into the forest while Akira who was still crawling started to stand when he failed to catch the deer
'damn.. I have no experience in hunting animals..
while Akira felt upset with the situation Akira started to get a good idea
'how about...
'rustle!
Akira opened the small bag that was behind him and started to take out the chain relic that he got in the Arcania forest
'I don't know how this relic works..but I can feel that this relic always follows the instructions in my mind..
Akira remembers the event when he fell into the abyss inside the ancient temple altar, when he threw the chain to a stone stump the chain reflexively rotated the stone stump and hang on it as if it had read Akira's mind and he managed to escape from danger at that time
'ha!
cling!
Akira gripped the chain tightly and threw it towards the nearest tree and as a result the chain was firmly attached to the tree
{correction: the word rope is changed to chain because what Akira has been holding all this time is an iron chain not a rope}
'It's like what I imagined..
[Chain of ∆∆∆∆]
[Ability:?????]
[Inspect Level 2 required to see this relic]
'this chain is still a mystery about its origin and its use.. most likely in the future I will be able to find out..
Akira then began to enter deeper into the forest to look for the deer again
***********
after some time
rustle...rustle..
Akira crawled slowly and began to see a deer that had escaped his sight earlier
he then stood up slowly while hiding the aura of his presence so that the deer wouldn't notice him while he holding the chain relic tightly in his hand
'one..two...three!
cling!
'!
Akira counted a few seconds and quickly threw the chain relic towards the deer
'rustle!
cling!
'gotcha!
'bae!
the chain relic that Akira threw managed to be avoided by the deer but when the chain was unable to chain the deer's body the chain automatically moved quickly towards the deer and chained the deer's neck and whole body tightly
'I knew this chain wasn't an ordinary chain!
Akira began to approach the body of the deer while taking out a sword from its scabbard
'stay like that so that death won't hurt you so much..
'bae..
Kerchak!
bae..
[hunt an animal with a skill limiter]
[completed!]
[1000 Power Point Obtained]
'huff...
Akira quickly cut the deer's neck so the deer wouldn't suffer pain as he sheathed his sword
blood was seen spreading on Akira's shirt as Akira began to remove the iron chain from the deer's body and put it in his small bag
Akira then lifted the body of the deer on his shoulders as he walked out of that place
'tap...tap...
'....'
Akira was used to seeing blood spread from the bodies of dead animals or people in the past, so he no longer felt traumatized by such an incident.
'I'm growing into a wiser person with every passing moment, but all that is taking a toll on my heart which is dying more and more and my smile is getting faker huh...
Akira who saw the blood spread on the ground at that time did not feel afraid at all because Akira had begun to realize that he was gradually losing his identity as a normal human being who was afraid of death.. because he himself was looking for his death.
Akira started to walk out while practicing a smile on his face
**************
'sensei?
'snore...
Akira could see Kiara who was asleep leaning against a tree from a distance while Akira began to approach his teacher who was still asleep.
'sensei~
'huh?
'are you done hunting? disciple?
'uh yes..I just don't know how to skin this deer, sensei...
'for real?Are you a person of noble blood who does not know how to skin a deer?
'can be said so sensei~
Akira scratched her head while making an innocent smile while Kiara who saw that just felt upset
'im tired disciple...
Kiara was disappointed because it turned out that Akira did not have much experience living in the forest
Kiara said that while covering her face in annoyance
**************
it was night time
Akira was seen washing his clothes stained with animal blood earlier in a nearby river that he found while Kiara was seen sitting grilling venison on a bonfire.
'sensei..is the venison cooked?
Akira walked up to Kiara while asking that
'next time learn how to live in the forest my disciple.. because the knowledge you get in the forest can help you in the future
'sorry sensei..
Kiara gently advised Akira while Akira just scratched his head feeling awkward
strangely Kiara was not at all suspicious of Akira
but Akira was only able to continue his friendly behavior towards his teacher to avoid his secret being known to Kiara
'for tomorrow we will train harder than before..
'thank you sensei..
Kiara said that while holding out the venison placed on a large leaf as a plate towards Akira
Kiara didn't say anything at all and her expression was very calm that night
Akira couldn't guess what his teacher was thinking at that moment
and Akira just followed the flow without saying anything that night
because talking a lot will only raise suspicion on him
Kiara has things that she hides from Akira and it's the same with Akira who hides things from Kiara, for now they both seem to not trust each other but Kiara is still trying to teach Akira even though Kiara's intentions are totally difficult for Akira to guess
nothing is free in this world, everything has a price or a reason.. that can be said in Akira's mind at that time
Akira wants to know who Kiara really is and who Reinhardt is while learning Kiara's swordsmanship to become strong and fulfill his life purpose while Kiara's intentions were very mysterious to Akira at that time
Akira thought that he came to that world because of a coincidence, it turns out that he still does not know everything and the reason why he is in that world
Is fulfilling Zuri's wishes the reason for his arrival in that world?
he did not know the reason at all but he could only continue his journey while searching for the secret of that world
for Akira to unravel all that, Akira has to stay alive
to reveal the reason for his arrival in that world and the strange feeling in his heart when he saw Kiara for the first time
that night they both slept in a quiet atmosphere followed by the moon shining that night....
