Roan then concocted an attractant potion then went on an adventure. Roan ventured into the monsters' forest to collect those stat crystals. Having a sword on his waist and leather armor with a curved dagger on his back. He also got a shield on his back. A bow and a quiver of arrows were on him. He also didn't forget to bring potions with him.
With his bedroll attached to his backpack, he was ready to go on an adventure. Also brought his rations with him, dried meat that was ready to be made into soup with just water and salt.
He went on an adventure on the edge of human settlements. Today was its weekend so he had time for a little leisure and to improve his stats. It was trifling at the moment and so he needs to improve it.
The way was lonely and the wind was the only one that whispered. Leaves were being carried by them. He ventured along the way and the path led to the entrance of the monster's forest.
The entrance was gloomy and depressing. Howls of air were what he can hear from where he stood. The forest floor was covered with dried leaves and has a foreboding atmosphere. As he entered, the forest became dark and the temperature dropped.
He delved further into the deeper parts of the forest and soon heard howls of animals inside it.
"Demon wolves, they are nasty ones. Their boss has those Dexterity stat crystals. I must get one for myself," Roan said in a low voice.
He traveled and followed their tracks, and the hunt begins, and tracking them inside the forest will be an easy task for him. Wolves were the ones who hunted but not the ones who were hunted instead.
And so, they were not wary of anything that will cause them harm.
He followed them and then saw them feasting on a deer. Others bicker with the others for their share.
Roan then climbed a tree and then watched them from above.
He broke a monster attractant on the footing of the tree and the wolves immediately followed the scent. They arrived at the footing then he equipped his bow. Firing at their heads one by one.
They barked at him from below and even when their comrades were slowly killed one by one, they were not backing down. Roan then smirked, he knew they would not fall back anytime soon.
He fired at their heads and they went limp immediately after the arrow hit. A perfect weapon for him with low stats.
With the potion working, ten of them fell even without making a fight.
After the monster attractant lost its effects, he immediately dropped down from the top of the tree. He then stabbed them and only one boss monster was present. One stat crystal floated from their bodies.
He grabbed it and then halted his movements after a growl was heard. He looked back and saw a demon tiger, ready to pounce at him anytime. Others were already at the top of the trees. They were that fast to climb!
"Tsk!"
He was then attacked and he rolled on the side. He drew his bow and fired at it. It then ran towards him and he fired at it. The tiger was then hit on the shoulders and he backflipped on the side. Then fired at it in the head after they crossed paths.
The enemy then growled as it removed the arrows from its body.
"Shit," Roan cursed.
Roan then drew his sword on his waist and put his bow on his back. He then also drew his curved dagger on his back and wielded the sword with it.
"Come and get some,"
Roan then dashed towards it and the enemy leaped towards him. He then slid his body to the ground and then slashed the tiger on its abdomen with his sword and dagger.
Its abdomen was opened by his slash and the enemy was heavily wounded. Blood splurted out and then the tiger went shaky on its footing. It then crashed to the ground and went limp.
Roan then ran and stabbed its back towards its chest which pierced its heart in the process. Immediately, the crystal floated and he grabbed it.
The demon tiger's crystal boasts of its +1 Strength, +1 Dexterity, +1 Endurance, and +10 Health points. It gave a stat crystal as it was a boss-level monster. While the demon wolves boss only gives +1 Dexterity.
He soon hunted more demon wolves boss in the process and have 3 of them making their reap into a fruitful one. Roan then put it inside his bag and carried it. Well, he needed it the most as he lacked stats.
He then rested for a while and then planned to go back to the village. Roan traveled back and camped on the roadside.
He made a fire pit and installed his bedroll on the dried leaves. With a small pot, he put his dried meat in water. Then seasoned it with small salt and ginger. Also, add cabbages to the pot and ground black pepper.
He cooked it well and ate with his bowl. Letting it cool down a bit and sipping the broth. Eating plenty after his tiring battle in the forest. He installed a tent and then rested inside. The wind was chilly and it was colliding with his tent. He slept in cool weather and comfort.
He woke up and morning didn't come, he resumed his travels afterward. And the birds sounded in the forest while it was dark. Quite creepy was what he felt.
He saw the village and then saw guards at the gates. He entered and then traveled towards his room in the blacksmith tent.
Upon reaching his room, he entered his room and then put the 3 demon wolf crystals on his bed; as well as the demon tiger crystal.
Roan then broke the crystals and its glow went inside him.
It was then, that he opened his stats and he chose his character sheet on the screen. He always wanted to see his improvement every time he improved his stats.
