Bob's head was starting to hurt from how much information he was getting into his head at once, probably from the low-level weapon mastery skill

[Warrior]

You are or were a common warrior. This class is common and not hard to get, but it does come with some bonuses: 5% to resistance to physical attacks.

[Low-level weapon mastery]

Rarity: common

You have learned how to use weapons a little bit at a time, you have a better knowledge of combat, you are better able to use weapons of any type

Bob liked the new things and became even more confident with his new combat experience

[All the accumulated food will disappear due to the influence of scenario 2]

This news made Bob quite angry as he looked at his empty shopping bag

"I should have sold it all'' muttered an angry Bob

Then Bob saw that his group was asleep, so he went to sleep too.

In the morning he woke up and saw that his group was awake

Then David came up to Bob and said.

"That skinny guy was on stage a while ago and he was calming people down from losing their food"

Then Edward came up to Bob and said.

"We've been thinking about joining the group looking for food outside"

Bob thought and then looked at the nearby dark rails of the underground train where the system window was

[Danger Zone]

"I want to go monster hunting" Bob said coldly and pointed to the dangerous danger zone

Then there was silence and finally Eduard spoke

"We'll go with you after all you are the strength of our group" Eduard said respectfully

David agreed with Eduard's decision, while Nina yawned in discontent.

Then Bob and his group could see to the tracks but they were stopped by the thin guy with a few other randoms

"I see you're going monster hunting but I'm glad for that we need someone to finish scenario 2" he said with a wide smile and tossed Bob a flashlight

Bob tossed the flashlight to Nina and said

"Light the way this will be your only job" Bob said coldly

Then they saw the rails and the thin man with the other randoms people waved to them

When they were in the tunnel Nina pulled out a kitchen knife and gave it to Eduarduvy

"Only on loan" she said with a hint of a blush

When Bob saw this he pulled a hammer from his inventory and threw it to David and said

[Inventory slots enabled: 0/5]

"You can keep it"

"Thank you" said David gratefully

After the tunnel that Bob and his group were walking through, the tunnel was quite damp and something smelled weird and it made Bob uncomfortable.

After about 5 minutes Bob and his group found a weak skeleton that Bob finished off with one shot.

[+25XP]

[+ 100 coins]

and after 2 minutes they got a system message

[you've stumbled upon a quest]

[Food Hunt

Catch and cook a monster that you can consume as food.

Difficulty: E

Time limit: none

Reward: 500 coins

Penalty for failure: ????]

Bob and his group were looking at dead looking rabbits with long spines all over their bodies, there were about 6 of them

Suddenly they started to open their eyes

"I will fight and when I get tired or injured I will withdraw and you all will fight in my place" Bob yelled

Then the hares got to their feet and Bob's group stood behind Bob

One hare lunged at Bob but was thrown off and the hare fell to the ground with a hiss

[Blood has gotten on your weapon, your weapon will be 10% stronger]

'hmm so he's not dead, they're pretty resilient' thought Bob as no notification came from the system that he had killed a hare

Then 2 rabbits jumped on Bob and Bob blocked them both with his sword and threw them away but one of the rabbits managed to scratch Bob a bit with his left leg

[-10 HP]

'oh luckily the system didn't think my leg was bleeding and didn't give me that fucking effect'

The 1 rabbit that Bob dropped on the ground earlier bled to death, leaving 5 rabbits and 2 bleeding on the ground

Then the remaining 3 rabbits jumped on Bob at the same time, but what surprised Bob was that the rabbits devised some tactics, 2 two rabbits jumped up and aimed for Bob's head while one rabbit bit into Bob's leg

[-30 HP]

[You got the effect [bleeding] every second you lose 1 HP]

'fuck'

Bob threw 2 rabbits and the one that bit into his leg drove a sword into his head killing him instantly

The 2 rabbits he threw on the ground were already bleeding, and the ones on the ground were already bleeding, and Bob finished them off.

[Quest- [food hunt] successfully completed]

[For completing the quest you received 500 coins]

[+210 XP]

[+660 coins]

[Ruby Ruler, Blood Shadow and other watchers are pleased with your performance]

[They donated a total of 200 coins]

Then Bob tore off a bit of one of his 3 shirts and bandaged his wound so it stopped bleeding

When Bob turned to his group they all had their mouths agape.

"It's a good thing we have you Bob, we probably couldn't have done it on our own" Eduard said

"You're really cool Bob" Said David

Nina didn't say anything she just blushed

Then Eduard realised something as he looked at the dead rabbit

"I guess we're supposed to eat it raw" said Eduard

"Ugh I'm not eating it raw" said Nina in disgust

Bob and his group left the rabbits where they were and continued deeper in the tunnel

(since I don't have that much time or motivation I'll try to release 2+ episodes per week)
