Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world

We rested in a restaurant. 

The kids along with Ruciel were thirsty and starving. Therefore, they have quite a big feast right now. Delicious foods and drinks vanished in a matter of minutes.

Oh! Yes, I earned Stat Points after eating Small Earth Lion and Brown Scorpion meat.

No, I didn't ask the chef at this restaurant to cook the meat for me. I cooked it myself by borrowing their kitchen. 

The chef didn't know how to cook the meat. As for me, I cook it as I like. I don't have to worry about the taste because I'm not a chef who sells food.

I made all that meat into soup and steak.

The food I made was delicious, just for me off course. It was proven by Kimi who tasted it. She say that my homemade food was too bitter.

And thanks to that bitterness, the little girl made an adorable expression. She has a sour face with eyes closed and fox's ear standing up straight.

I know, this change in food taste is extremely strange. As for continuing to think about it, I will say that it would just be a waste of time.

Heart of Monster just does a miracle.

Ronove?

The old woman left us. She going to the next city to use the Teleportation Crystal. She wanted to tell the others about this second floor.

She gets a request from Lostria and Teria to find out if there are any valuables items on this second floor that they can supply for resale. 

It was undeniable, the old woman just came and went just like that.

Now, about where we are, where the restaurant is.

I say we are in the city on the second floor of Uncertainty. Then I will say another thing, this city is not a city. 

Settlement or village is a word that can describe this place.

Why would I say something like that?

Because this place is smaller than I thought it would be. In addition to that, almost all the buildings and infrastructure in this place are made of wood.

Yes, this place is a village but fortunately, this place sells various types of hunting equipment.

Weapons, Armor, or Potions, just say it and someone would get the stuff if one had the money or in this case, Magic Stones and materials from the monsters.

I want to swap my spear.

After fighting against the Small Earth Lion, my blunt spear became completely obliterated. The spearhead was stuck inside the monster's body. That made my spear into a useless stick.

Yes, I was lucky, the spear wasn't broken at the moment I attacked the monster. I'd be wrecked if that scenario truly happened.

So, in this village, I'm looking for a new spear. But unfortunately, we didn't have enough items to make the exchange. More than that...

"If you want to find high-quality weapons, it's a good idea to visit the next city. They have a supply of weapons made by our best blacksmiths." A Flugel who is the arms dealer gave us valuable information.

Getting that info, I ended up buying a standard spear that wasn't good or bad. 

With this new spear, I was determined to collect materials from the monsters in large quantities. 

I want to buy a new, high-quality spear. However, if no spear catches my interest, I will use the Items to buy raw materials. After all, I was planning to make a spear and now I'm collecting the necessary raw materials for it.

"We've rested well," Ruciel began. She moved her head to look at me. "Tell me, are we going to keep trying to get on the next floor as soon as possible?"

As she said, my original plan was to conquer some Towers of Challenge as soon as possible. Now, I don't think I want to do it.

And yes, after defeating the Yellow Tail Ape King, greed appeared in my heart. I want to collect advanced skills or maybe skills from the Guardians' Magic Stones.

The Stat Points they provided were also tempting.

However, hunting down the Guardians wasn't a simple task. We had a hard time defeating the Yellow Tail Ape King. And there was a possibility, the Guardians in the next Tower of Challenge would probably be stronger than the Yellow King.

Understanding those things, I knew that conquering the Tower of Challenge as soon as possible can be said dangerous and arduous.

We need preparation and we need to get stronger before challenging the other Guardians.

Therefore, I thought of hunting monsters in large numbers to obtain Stat Points and Skills as much as possible. 

"What do you think?" I asked Ruciel after conveying my plans.

"I feel there's nothing wrong with that. We can carry out the plan."

My ears twitched with satisfaction after getting that answer. Then, I look at the kids. "How about you, kids? Do you guys still have the energy to hunt? The three of you can stay here if you're exhausted."

The kids exchanged glances.

"I want to try the Spells I just learned. I want to hunt," Chloe said. She made fists to show her eagerness.

"If Chloe wants to hunt, then so do I," said Kimi who then nodded at Chloe.

"They go hunting and I will do the same. Protecting them is my job," said Alan to me.

I got answers from the kids and Ruciel. So...

"We're going to hunt around the village. We're not going to go too far because we're going to spend the night here. We will visit the next city after I get the ten Magic Stones and the meat of the monsters roaming around this place."

"That's going to take a few days, are you aware of that?"

"Absolutely," I replied and nodded. "No longer are we in a hurry to conquer the Tower of Challenge. We will hunt by making the most of our time."

With that words as a signal, we began to prepare ourselves for the next hunt. We inspected our weapons, Armor, Potions, and some other hunting equipment before leaving the village.

We're back in Savanna. 

Amid a vast ocean created by turquoise grass, we searched for our prey.

Well... Searching may not be the right word. In this Savanna, choosing a monster that was clearly visible in the distance, would probably be a suitable idiom.

And yes, the Brown Scorpion is back attacking us.

The children unsheathed their weapons and fought against the monster. That's right, I didn't help them because I wanted their level to rise quickly.

Automatically, Ruciel observed the kids' fight. She's ready to give a hand at any time using her Longbow.

On the other hand, I who was standing beside Ruciel scanned the surroundings. I have to make sure there's no danger approaching us. Along with that, I was looking for another monster to hunt.

Time passed and I found a monster.

My eyes were on Tear Antelope. It was a monster that had dark brown fur on the back and white on the abdomen. A pair of twisted black horns, forming a drill adorned its head. The monster was quite unusual because it had a tail with dense fur, round-shaped, and size as big as its body.

"Ruciel, I want to hunt Tear Antelope."

Ruciel turned her eyes away from the kids to look at me. "Alright, don't be far away from us."

"Sure," I replied. Then I walked up to my hunt.

A few minutes later and never did I guessed, Tear Antelope escaped by running so quickly. 

The distance between us was over seventeen meters and it realized my whereabouts. 

Okay... I confess it's my fault. In this vast open meadow, I approached the monster without trying to hide. It was a stupid act and I regret it.

My first hunt failed before I started.

With weak hanging ears, I returned to Ruciel and the kids. After following them to hunt down the Brown Scorpion for some time, once again I found Tear Antelope wandering near us.

I approached the monster by sneaking around, I also chased after the monster as it tried to escape but in the end, I didn't get the Magic Stone I wanted.

That scene was repeated twice before I found another Tear Antelope.

Yes, I'm sneaking around and using Stealth to get close to the monster. I observe the monster's every movement, I was ready to run at any moment it run.

Time passed and the distance between us shrank. 

Then, tear Antelope moved its head so suddenly. Because of that, our eyes met. 

A second later...

Whuss!

The monster ran.

Of course, I'm not staying still. 

By the time the monster sped off, I dashed and said, "[Swift Movements]" not long after, I said, "[Swift Gale]"

Thanks to that Skill and Spell, I was able to run fast. And when I ran to the fullest of my capacity, I felt that I could run at over ninety kilometers per hour.

I feel like a Cheetah!

I who was chasing the monster raised my right hand, pointed my palm at it.

"[Wind Cannon]"

Bwosh!

Huge air pressure shot up to hit Tear Antelope. Unfortunately, my spell missed the target.

The nimble monster made a sharp turn just before the Spell hit its body.

It dodged brilliantly.

"Shit!" I cursed and as soon as possible, I moved my body to make a sharp turn too.

Before this episode, I slipped while making a sharp turn. But now, I can do it well.

With confidence, I will say that I can match the monster's agility.

Our game of chase lasted for some minutes before the monster finally stumbled after receiving my water bullet in one of its hamstrings.

I didn't waste any time, I approached the monster, I stabbed it in the head as it lay down on the grass. And yes, I managed to kill my first Tear Antelope.

I brought the monster to Ruciel and then I got a brown Magic Stone the size of two index fingers.
