I was quite pleased with the title and the status bonuses, as they will certainly help me with my future plans.

After taking one last look at all the books I had read, I decided to leave the library and bid farewell to the lady at the front.

"Miss, I'm leaving now. Thank you for the wonderful books."

I spoke and smiled gently at her with a slight bow.

Unlike last time, she looked up and called me.

"Come here, boy."

Curious, I approached and lowered my head as she asked.

She then touched my forehead with her fingers. As soon as she did that, she spoke, pushing me away with her hand.

"You may go."

I was confused as I didn't feel any change or receive any notification, but I didn't question it and headed towards the second hunting ground while waving my hand.

"Goodbye, miss."

I left, unaware that this lady, by performing that touch, had given her approval for something I couldn't even fathom, but which would influence me in the near future.

When I was far enough away and could no longer see her, she took her eyes off the book and murmured.

"I didn't expect to give my approval now… but he was the first to conquer my library… and I have a good feeling about him…"

But soon she returned her eyes to her book as she finished the murmur.

"In any case, it has nothing to do with me anymore."

This time I approached the second hunting ground. The field had trees with slightly yellowish colors, as if it were autumn or similar. The field was divided into two parts: wolves, level 7 or higher monsters, and rabid dogs, which are level 5 to 7 monsters.

Walking in the hunting ground, I saw most players having a stronger aura around their bodies while wearing more distinct clothes, probably indicating that they already have a class, but most of them were still acting individually.

I also observed the types of clothes and weapons in general.

Some wore light clothes and carried bows, others carried shields and a secondary weapon, some used swords or spears and light armor, and a few used large weapons and heavy armor.

Some of them wore light-colored cloaks and carried staffs or/and wands.

Others wore white clothes with an aura of healing and life, seemingly representing the priest class or something typical of support, and others wore darker clothes representing death or similar aspects.

While there were some with various clothes walking with small animals of different races and species… there was even one with a flying fish in the air inside a water globe, which I found quite curious… must be from the summoner class….

But regardless of that, I pulled up my hood and hid well as I went to the hunting ground, which was relatively well divided. Solo players often prefer wolf hunting grounds as they don't move much in large groups.

While rabid dogs move more in groups but have lower levels.

I decided to choose the rabid dogs to test as they have a level closer to mine, and I wanted to test first.

Walking in this area, I saw some small groups of players fighting against groups of rabid dogs… some threw fireballs, others used wind arrows, and some used different weapons.

I also saw some players casting what seemed like buffs or heals.

I continued walking and saw two rabid dogs.

They were walking around randomly.

I hid behind a tree and drew my wand with my left hand and activated the magic arrow skill this time.

I clearly noticed that with the increase in my status and title.

The arrow formed more easily and had more power; I also had greater ease in handling and controlling it.

And without hesitation, I shot the arrow.

It flew with high strength and power, cutting through the air, quickly hitting the head of one of the dogs.

The damage was also reasonably higher than before.

I smiled, satisfied. Evidently, the dogs didn't like what happened and started running towards me. I took my whip with my right hand and activated my racial skill, water whip, and applied mana for the water to be created.

And when I did that along with the whip, my whip began to grow and expand.

And with a soft smile, I moved it with high strength and speed. The whip hit directly the second dog running towards me and threw it against a tree, and for the second one that was approaching, I moved it as if I were controlling a living snake. And it hit in front of the other dog.

"Calm down, little dog, we still have a lot to fight."

My whip continued to move as I coordinated it.

The whip now with this active skill allowed me to have even better control over it, not to mention reach and damage.

And so I continued to fight for a while.
