White Fox Reincarnation In The World Of TenSura

Chapter 3 - Training in Secret and First Hunt

After Rimuru woke up we had a little chat. While we talked he kept pinching my cheeks and hugging and also patting me and kept saying "You're my precious little Shiro". This made me happy, to have a father figure that cares for me. In truth, in my past life my father neglected me from these kinds of interactions. Rimuru might just become a son-con because, I'm really being narcissistic here, but I'm incredibly cute. Must be because of the handsome face wish I asked God.

Soon after that he started working properly as the leader of the village, instructing the dwarves on what to build, like facilities and all that. While he was doing his job as the leader, I went into the forest secretly. I tried hunting some small monsters. I tried the naive tactic of running straight to them but they noticed my presence immediately and ran off. I didn't have a good build, my body was actually quite weak despite my insane status. So for 3 days I secretly went into the forest and did some exercises. Having a child's body didn't help because I ran out of stamina very fast. I took out the Medidation Book I got from the Beginner's package and started reading it. I couldn't even understand the meanings behind each word the first time I read it, but after reading it 1 more time I immediately started to understand. While I was pondering why I suddenly gained wisdom, [Great Sage] answered the question in my head.

«Because of the unique skill [Great Sage], host's perception speed has been boosted a thousand times»

So that's why. I remember this from the light novel. [Great Sage] is very op indeed, I'm glad I got her as one of my skills.

Now that I've fully understood the book, it was actually very simple. I must sense the magicules in the air, which I succeeded in very easily thanks to [Magic Sense]. After I sense the flow of magicules, the book instructed that I should control them and absorb them into my body in any way I want, through breathing or even osmosis, which is absorbing through my skin, I can't use the magicules already stored inside my body which is a bit of a bummer. I started absorbing the magicules in the air through breathing since I get more this way, [Magic Eater] helped out alot as I absorbed magicules very efficiently. Through this, I meditated for an hour or so, after which I started noticing changes in my body. It wasn't anything drastic but I could feel inside me that my body was improving internally.

I asked [Great Sage] at what this change was as I'm not too sure myself.

«Answer: Host's body has improved slightly, increasing stamina and endurance.»

"Did my physical strength change as well?»

«No, the meditation technique only uses the absorb magicules to improve host's internally. It does not affect the physical strength host.»

"Oh... that's fine I guess."

I continued this little training regiment of mine for 5 more days, meditating and doing physical exercises. During these 5 days I decided to look into the the System Store. I was dumbfounded since even Ultimate Skills were also in here, but they were so expensive that even the cheapest one was around 10 billion store points. I distracted myself from depression and looked for other skills I can afford, and found one helpful skill. I bought the extra skill [Stealth], and as the name implies, it puts me into stealth mode. It would remain active as long as I have magicules stored inside me, and I have alot in reserve all thanks to Rimuru's naming ceremony. If I could master this skill it would even turn me invisible, but that's still a long way in the future.

After the last day of my little training, I proceeded to hunt down small monsters, only this time I WILL succeed.

I immediately used magic sense to track down a small killer rabbit. I activated [Stealth] and jumped into the trees like a ninja, another weebish goal I had finally completed. I stalked the killer rabbit until it finally let its guard down. I took out the small dagger from my inventory and jumped down. I landed while also successfully striking the the rabbit straight into the head. It twitched a little until it finally stopped moving.

Immediately after I felt the magicules of the bunny corpse enter my body, it felt like hunger I didn't know I had was satiated. [Great Sage] told me it was my [Magic Eater] doing its job. If I had to describe the feeling in another way, it would be like getting experience points from a monster and leveling up. After that little "eating" session I turned towards the killer rabbit corpse.

Finally, my first hunt....

From pure joy I instinctively shouted.

"YAAAAAATTAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"

Because of my little act, Rimuru immediately went to where I was in a blinding speed. As expected of the one I worshipped back in my human days, but I admit I still worship him even to this day, except without all the shrines and stuff.... a dark past of mine, forget I said that.

Moving on, Rimuru was there in front of me, worried. His worried expression was then suddenly replaced by surprise.

"HAI!"

"You're so young yet already able to hunt on your own...."

He patted my head, while I did a cute little "Hehehehehehe"

Shortly after he smacked my head, it hurt.... alot... while grimacing at the pain and rubbing the smacked spot with both my hands I looked at his face. His face now turned into one with anger. He had a little vein pulsing on his forehead obviously signifying that he is angry. I laughed inwardly since even as a slime, his body morphs according to his emotion, which I find cute.

"WHAT WERE YOU DOING!!!"

"Training..."

"AND WHY WERE YOU TRAINING?!?!"

"So I could become strong like you...."

He blushed for a millisecond. But I saw it, I definitely hit a soft spot in him.

He had a cold stare which made me shiver. So this is what they call tough love huh?
