After entering the Makiling Forest, I started to go deeper and deeper until I arrived at the place where a higher-level monster than Green Leaf Boar could be seen.
I ventured to the second phase of the forest and found an intimidating leaf boar. "A leaf boar?" I walked closer to it in order to check whether it was the Green Leaf boar. "W-Wait, isn't it blue ones?"
[MONSTER NAME: BLUE LEAF BOAR] [LEVEL: 04]
[LOCATION: MAKILING FOREST, SECOND PHASE]
[DESCRIPTION: Blue Leaf Boar, a monster higher level than Green Leaf Boar. They lurked upon the second phase of the Makiling Forest.]
A blue leaf boar differed from a green leaf boar by strength and speed. Green Leaf Boar do have higher strength but doesn't much agility whilst this blue one has strength comparable to green ones but has higher agility.
The Blue leaf Boar started to move, scratching the ground with its indestructible feet.
I readied myself from its attack by using the same method I used when I was just a player of New Life.
Before I entered the Makiling Forest, I took a certain amount of sand from the neighbors and put it in my inventory to use for this sole moment.
Just as it was about to scratch the ground, I took the sands from my inventory and threw them at exactly its both naked eyes that resulted in him not being able to see sight of me.
The boar charged at me with its ravaging body, but it only struck the tree with its head since it was moving faster than the average boar, which gave it more velocity and caused the tree to fall. Due to its impenetrable physique, the boar didn't sustain much damage from the hit and was already commencing its second move.
But, "Where'd you looking to? I'm here!" I started to make my move and abruptly took my beginner's knife from my inventory, I rushed toward the boar and jump at exactly it's wide back and struck him in his neck.
[SYSTEM MESSAGE: Successfully killed Blue Leaf Boar.]
[EXP GAINED: 150 POINTS]
"That's hunting freak for you" I mumbled.
Well, it's thanks to my tricks of using sand to blind its sight that I am able to defeat it much easier, if not, I would've been battling it much longer.
I ventured deeper into the forest once again and was just about to attack another blue leaf boar but I heard a sudden loud voice from a distance asking for help.
Though It was not my concern I followed the voice to see what happened because of my curiosity.
"Hm, a strong smell of blood." The stench of blood pervades the air whilst I readied myself for any possibilities of danger while getting closer to the location where I heard the voice.
I got closer and closer until the voice dissipated while I could feel a heavy pressure from the air.
"T-This was bloodlust!" I mumbled.
"Mister, behind you!"
Just as I was about to turn around, I already suffered a grave internal wound and was pushed back from afar. My sight becomes blurry and it's just a miracle that I took a clear sight of what attacked me. "So it was a Mutated Boar huh?" I mumbled.
[MONSTER NAME: MUTATED PURPLE BOAR] [LEVEL: 10]
[LOCATION: MAKILING FOREST, PHASE TWO & THREE]
[DESCRIPTION: A purple boar that was mutated from time to time. Mutated Purple Boar was known by its indestructible body, higher speed, and destructive strength. It was also known for having a territorial trait in which he will attack whoever set foot in his territorial domain.]
"Wait, not this time!" I started to move my body and endlessly slap my face to forcefully wake myself up. "Good, I woke up!" Just after I regain my control in my body, the mutated boar already on the verge of striking me. I turn around and ran as fast as I could.
"Mister, it's coming! you can't defeat that monster in your current state!"
"I can't defeat a mutated boar in this state" Is what she thought.
[EARLIER THAT TIME]
But, "Where'd you looking to? I'm here!" I started to make my move and abruptly took my beginner's knife from my inventory, I rushed toward the boar and jump at exactly it's wide back and struck him in his neck.

"I already leveled up to five huh? Then, isn't it time to use that?" I mumbled, laughing inwardly.

"Mister, it's coming! you can't defeat that monster in your current state!"
"I can't defeat a mutated boar in this state" Is what she thought. I abruptly opened my inventory while running from the chasing mutated boar and took that certain knife in the second column of my inventory slot.
I stopped running and stood up in front of the chasing mutated boar.
"Mister, dodge!"
"Dodge? watch this~" I mumbled.
I jumped toward the ravaging mutated boar while raising the knife to gain momentum and just as I was about to enter its range, I swiftly struck him from its indestructible head. "Indestructible head my foot!" I mumbled.

"I-It's dead?" The girl who was wearing a black suit witnessed the entire event and subconsciously took a step back while showing a perplexed expression on her face.
"1500 EXP? Sweet~" I mumbled.
"M-Mister, did you just kill that monster with a single strike?" The unidentified girl who witnessed the entire event suddenly approached me while showing an excited expression on her face.
"Uhh? Her eyes were glittering?" I mumbled.
"M-Mister?"
"Hm-Ahh.. Yes?"
"Did you just kill that with a single strike? How did you do that?" She asked.
"Well, I wonder~"

The second day of my hunt was quite the thrill. I don't know if it was because of my luck or curiosity as an old player but having encountered the mutated purple boar this early was beyond my expectations more so this persistent colleen bagworm.{Colleen Bagworm: An idiom word, meaning; A woman who keeps on pestering a single person.}"S-Say, how did you kill it with a single strike?" She asked, showing a curious expression on her face.I stopped walking and slowly pushed back her face, "Would you please stop for a sec?""O-Ohh, you're quite attractive there~" She said, her cheeks almost immediately turning scarlet."Do Russians speak with this much directness?" I spoke just as I abruptly took my arms back."Ehh? how do you know that I'm Russian?" She asked, taken aback."Just a guess." Though I know that she was a foreign girl since she used English quite a lot.I continued my hunt of blue leaf boar after battling with the mutated purple boar from earlier. "Hm, having an azure knife
My family used to be a 'may kaya' or a well-heeled family but everything turns downfall one years ago.The company that my dad used to work for went bankrupt almost immediately whilst that time was not favored to us since my family had recently purchased a property that was a rent-to-own and needed to pay for the second month or else, the contract would be canceled and we would be kicked out, leaving my father with no alternative but to make a loan and eventually came to the point where he consulted a loan shark company.At first, it was good and all since my father used to know one of those loan shark employees but had been betrayed by him, making our family hardly indebted to that loan shark company.My father was offered a chance to do some amends, an amends where he needs to cast out all those precious emotions and do everything that had been ordered to him by the loan shark organization. You might argue that his life has been purchased as a slave, and by the time I wish to help m
At that point, I understood that the only people who could stop you from going crazy were your dearest family. They will be the ones to make you feel so relieved that you will almost immediately and helplessly put your head on their shoulders while forgetting everything around you. I told mom to go outside first and thankfully she agreed. "Hm, you're the one behind this right?" I walk closer to the supposed leader and asked if he was the one behind this nonsensical event. "Y-Yes.. Ah, no, I was just ordered by our boss. I even told him that this kind of situation would put us in danger but he didn't listen. P-Please let me just go.." He took a step back as he spoke. I abruptly took the azure knife from my inventory once again and threw the knife to the wall that was an inch closer to the supposed leader's scaredy face. "A-Ahh!" He yelled out of fear like a girl whilst his pants suddenly turned wet. "Did you just wet your pants?" I asked, slowly approaching him. "Tell, how did it
After breakfast, I proceeded to Makiling Forest once again to hunt. "Hm, so it was already my third day of coming here huh?" I mumbled. Just as I was about to enter the forest, I suddenly heard a familiar voice, calling for my name. "Theodore! Hey!" I immediately turned away after knowing that the one calling for me was none other than Sasha. No, no, no.." I entered the forest and proceeded to go deeper and arrive at phase three of the forest where monsters higher than blue leaf boar can be found. "Why was he in a hurry?" She mumbled and left. [MONSTER NAME: GREEN BULLDOZER] [LEVEL: 05] [LOCATION: MAKILING FOREST, THIRD PHASE] [DESCRIPTION: Green Bulldozer, a monster higher level than Blue Leaf Boar. They lurked upon the third phase of the Makiling Forest.] The green bulldozer differed from the green leaf boar by a lot. its strength was much higher but not quite destructible like the mutated purple boar though, in terms of speed, they were almost equally the same. "It will
Just as I was about to enter the dark part of the forest, I felt an immense pressure from the air. "A-A bloodlust!" I started to ready myself from any possibilities of danger, a shield in my right hand and the azure knife in my left hand. I took sight on each of every side of the forest but nothing happened. "Hm? Maybe I was just being paranoid.." I mumbled. I decided to go back to phase 3 of Makiling Forest and hunt bulldozers once again until the EXP gain was rather small than usual and finally called it a day whilst focusing on each of every side of the forest to avoid the thing that happened to me yesterday (CH-006). [1:20 PM, Wednesday], [LOCATION: Makiling Forest, Entrance] I went to the player's lounge in order to check my inventory since this lounge was owned by the government and is protected by the police and private soldiers. One could say that this was a safe area for players who wanted to check their inventory withbeing targeted by the others. "Hm, this was quite a l
And that's how I ended up being a magician once again. Sasha told me that this place was originally a golf course, obviously, it is. But just after the game become reality, this place suddenly transformed into a medieval infrastructure in just a spun amount of time. For me, this place was a town similar to that of a newbie town in "New Life". In New Life, the town was where everything can be found. Such as market place, forging houses, a teleportation gate that instantly teleports you to the designated forest, and a book store. By the looks of it, everything was really similar to that of a newbie town; just like these NPCs. Yes, you heard it right. I too cannot believe that NPCs have existed but I already seen it with my own eyes so I don't have a choice but to believe. But the thing is these NPCs doesn't act like they used to be in "New Life". Their scripted and repeated actions cannot be seen as if they have gained their own ego and human emotions. [5:02 PM, Wednesday], [LOC
I bought these five skill books because of their own unique firepower and usage. Just like the lightning bullet that only consume almost half of the original skill which was a lightning blast. Not only this skill was conservative, but it was also powerful in its own way, just like being shot by a gun. Earthen Shield could help me block almost all magic or long-range attacks while it can also be used for terrain manipulation, partnered up with self-healing that could help me heal my wounds naturally when an attack from the enemy hasn't been blocked by the earthen shield. As for Fire blast, it could consume a lot of mana since it was an ultimate attack but if it was partnered up by mana regeneration, then I would at least regenerate 20-30% of the used mana from initiating the said skill. I wanted to hunt more monsters for the day to try the skills that I'd bought but the night was already coming through and so I decided to go home and sleep early. "M-Mom!" I once again forcibly wok
Hunting with the other players was more efficient than hunting alone, is what they say. Well, in fact, it is. But for I who have an unspoken secret, unable to do so. Consider what would happen if someone discovered that I still have the items that I used to have when I was a "New Life" player. Isn't death the only outcome? That is why, for as long as I can, I will never join any party with others. I rest for a while to replenish the mana that I used and decided to open the Gift Pack that I received after becoming a mage. [Gift Pack x1] ([Use]/Discard) For I who was a former player of New Life know that the Gift Pack contained three essential items for each of the different classes. For me, I should receive common staff, common robe, and a common ring. "But what is this?" I mumbled. The Gift Pack that would provide three items only gave a normal-looking necklace, "W-Wait, isn't this a rare tier 4 necklace?" [ITEM: ROSARIO] [TIER 4: RARE] [LEVEL REQUIREMENT: No requirements] [RE
