Unfortunately, when the arrow was close enough, the chicken pecked at it with force, breaking it in mid-air.
I narrowed my eyes at this sight, and the chicken ran towards us at high speed. Seeing this, I remained calm and swung my whip with great force and speed, landing a direct hit on it and causing significant damage. Of course, since it had higher stats than mine, the damage wasn't that high, but it was still notable.
The chicken seemed increasingly irritated, and my whip continued to move through the air with strength and agility like a snake, flying and causing damage while slightly restricting its movement.
I seized the right moment and shot another mana arrow, this time hitting its right leg.
I smiled happily at the notification.
My whip continued to move at high speed, landing powerful blows on it and causing more and more damage until it finally died.
The XP also increased slightly within level 2, but I still hadn't allocated my points and turned my hand to collect the loot.
I smiled contentedly and continued hunting…
I was flying in the air with my blue wings exposed, attacking with magical arrows, and my whip moving powerfully while fighting three iron-beaked chickens.
My beautiful wings flapped, releasing gusts of wind. They were large and lovely, with an enchanting blue color. The experience of flying and having wings was fantastic, so much so that I flew around and played for a few minutes when I first brought them out.
In the fight, I used my whip to strike them with strong and agile blows, and arrows in between the whip attacks. Given that they were beginner village monsters, they didn't have many means of attack, although some occasionally displayed high intelligence and made super high jumps trying to hit me... like some sort of arrow chicken.
Just like the one that was doing exactly that…
My whip quickly moved in front of me, and the "arrow chicken" used its iron beak to strike my whip. I was pushed back a bit, but I raised my wand and formed an arrow of pure mana, denser than usual since I applied a large amount of it, above my head.
With a slightly malicious smile, I shot it directly at the monster's head, causing not only damage but also pushing it straight to the ground.
After a few minutes, I finished killing them and finally reached my goal of reaching level 3, and even progressed a bit within it. Of course, I had completed the mission criteria long ago.
I also collected a large amount of meat that I plan to sell or use for cooking… after all, some roasted chicken like BBQ or orange chicken, or teriyaki chicken, or Korean chicken, or chicken with Chinese salt...
Thinking about the possibilities made my mouth water… I'm a bit of a cooking fan and, above all, a fan of eating.
As for the feathers and iron beaks, I will definitely sell them since I see no use for them.
I sat on the ground for a bit and ate soft white bread with a cup of milk to rest.
"Hunting is indeed fun…" I murmured as I looked around and felt the wind in this vast plain.
After resting well, I started to walk around a bit and saw if I could find anything interesting at a distance…
And indeed, I found something that caught my attention: a small pool of water about 8 meters in radius, well hidden in the grass between two small mountains.
I was surprised by the water source and took the opportunity to fill my bottle and moisten my skin. To do so, I dived a bit into the water and, when I did, I narrowed my eyes.
As someone with whale beastkind blood, I could not only breathe underwater but also had extremely clear underwater vision and heightened senses.
I clearly felt that the cave was deeper than expected.
And with excitement, I decided to use my Transformation Skill.
I closed my eyes and focused on the Skill.
More specifically, I concentrated on the whale blood in my body. Previously, I had used the Skill to bring out my wings in a partial transformation, which I found very interesting.
This time, I decided on a full transformation.
My entire body changed, and instead of my human form, a cute, small blue and gray whale appeared.
Immediately after, various notifications popped up.
The notifications were within my expectations, and having a fully transformed whale body was quite fun. I swam at high speed, going deeper and deeper.
The experience of being a small whale and swimming was another new and cool experience.
The body was smaller, but I felt at one with the water.
After swimming for about 15 minutes, I finally found something. It looked like a small cute chest, and in front of it, I saw the shadow of something… At that moment, my small whale body swiftly dodged, and I looked back at the enemy to find out exactly what attacked me and who attacked me.
