MMORPG: Rebirth of the Shadow Mage-Chapter 29 Food

A sound of something moving in the bushes alerted me and the wolf.

We both turned our heads towards the sound expecting something to emerge from within the greenery, but nothing happened.

Seeing the wolf still reluctant to attack me I approached the bush and moved the branches obstructing our vision.

Two red eyes and two long ears came into my view. I instantly identified the beast to be some kind of rabbit. I didn't even need to look at its status to know its weakness.

A white flame lit up on my hand surprising both, the wolf and the rabbit.

Unfortunately for the rabbit its speed was similar to mine, but because of the intelligence difference I just predicted where the beast would run and scorched it with flames.

< Forest Rabbit x1 Killed! >

<LOOT>

1?? 100 EXP

2?? Rabbit's Meat x3

3?? Rabbit's Leg x1

Quickly collecting all the loot I took the Rabbit's meat above the Demonic Flame and cooked it in high temperature.

< Rabbit's Meat x1 → Cooked Rabbit Meat x1 >

The rabbit meat was cooked and because it wasn't that hard to do the ingredient turned out not burnt.

Shifting my eyes towards the wolf I noticed it lying on the floor and eyeing the cooked meat held in my hand.

Throwing the stake at the beast I cooked the other two before giving it to the wolf.

< Grey Wolf Taming Process; 74% → 95% >

The wolf was very close to being tamed. Its eyes were showing signs of happiness, but the food ended once again. Luckily, the wolf was a bit more trusty, hence didn't growl or attack me.

Seeing our friendship progress, I was honestly surprised. Most of the beasts will try to attack the player even if their Taming Process is 99%.

Truly, the beast before me was different. Looking at its yellow eyes I felt that the beast had a fair bit of intelligence.

' Well, in the future he'll become a boss '

I shrugged my shoulders leaving the wolf lying and quickly scanning the area for more food. I had no time to spare.

After a few minutes of walking I noticed a flock of birds drinking water from the nearby lake. looking around to see if there's a predator nearby I threw a Shadow Blast in the middle of the flock hoping to kill as many Birds as possible.

Boom...

The Shadow Blast landed, killing a few birds and sending the bird flock in ruckus. After a few seconds only dead Birds remained.

< Archaeopteryx x6 Killed! >

< LOOT >

1?? 1200 EXP

2?? Archaeopteryx Meat x8

3?? Archaeopteryx Claws x1

I ran towards the Loot and started collecting it. Unfortunately I had no time to let the Demonic Flame devour the corpses.

While grabbing the Loot a monster suddenly jumped out of the lake aiming to bite me in half. I had low to none time to dodge, hence had to sacrifice one of my arms to evade the beast.

Crack...

The beast's powerful jaws tore off my whole arm from the shoulder.

The monster was physically strong, but its Mana reserves were fortunately low. Planning to capitalize this weakness I used my flame to stop the bleeding.

It hurts like hell...

Luckily the crocodile didn't want to leave too far from the water and kept staring at me from a distance.

After I was done with my eyes shifted to the beast seemingly trying to release all the pain I felt while performing the wound closure. pletely blend with the water
