Big monster!

"Tian, are you alright?"

Xiao Ling'er hurriedly over. She doesn't know how powerful her husband is, but seeing how he easily suppressed the giant wolf, she feels relieved.

"I'm fine. See? Not even a scratch! Oh? The wolf's up. Come touch. This guy here will be our hunting dog from now on."

"Alright." Xiao Ling'er put down her basket and hesitantly rubbed the wolf's head. Seeing that the fierce beast moment ago was now obedient, she found it a little unbelievable. "Husband, this is amazing! I hadn't heard anyone can directly tame wild beasts like this before, and it's a wolf! Is it loyal?"

"It should be."

Yayoi pondered momentarily and explained: "Wolves are complex and highly intelligent animals. Although this wolf looks big, it's actually thin and light. If we treat it well and keep it well-fed, it should stay loyal and become devoted."

Xiao Ling'er: "...That's great! Can I name it?"

"Sure." He nodded.

"Let's call it Xiao Hui! (Little Grey)"

"Uh...Xiao Hui it is."

*Auuuuooooo~!!!*

As if accepting the name, the grey wolf Xiao Hui raised its head and howled at the sky. Shortly afterward, with Xiao Hui joining the team and assuming the role of a hunting dog, Yayoi quickly found and hunted a few rabbits and a deer. After hanging them up to drain their blood, he put them into his [Warehouse].

While following Xiao Hui's lead, they finally encountered the first formidable prey.

One hundred steps away—

'Holy... This pig is so f*cking handsome!'

Under the tree canopy rested a Level 11 black wild boar with 11 points of Strength and 12 Constitution. This black wild boar is enormous, around 3.5 meters long, and its thick shining white tusks were intimidating. Regular bow and arrow probably have no effects. A wild boar of this size is extraordinary. Yayoi wonders if this guy could possibly be the overlord of this mountain.

'Tame or meat?'

He lamented.

Honestly, Yayoi would rather kill ten humans than slay this beast, not out of fear but admiration. Humans are everywhere, and their lives, especially strangers, to him, are worthless. How can they be compared?

Noticing her husband's fascinated expression, Xiao Ling'er tugged his sleeves and asked: "Tian you... What do you want to do? No way... don't tell me—"

"What? I'm thinking about getting us a mount."

"But that thing looks dangerous!"

"Sigh..." He looked at her seriously and said: "Ling'er, have some faith in me. I won't do anything I'm not confident about. Unless it's to protect you, I won't jest when it comes to matters of life and death."

"Then be careful."

Although still worried, Xiao Ling'er is sensible. Since her husband was so determined, she could only believe in him and stop her useless nagging.

After helping his wife hide on top of a big tree, Yayoi contemplates and puts his weapon away in the [Warehouse]. Ready for use if needed.

His Constitution is 11 points. Although inferior to the pig, there should be no problem in close combat. Moreover, his Strength is even higher than the opponents by 3 points. The gap is enormous. There should be no problem.

"Hey, you!" Yayoi shouted toward the pig.

No reaction...

When he came closer, getting worked up for a good fistfight, it still hadn't moved an inch. When the distance between them narrowed down to 1 meter, the thing was still sleeping.

[Black Wild Boar(Mutated)]

[Disposition: Brave, dumb sleepyhead]

[Level: 11]

[Status: Normal]

[Attributes: Strength(11)(Rare), Dexterity(5)(Common), Contistution(11)(Rare), Qi(10)(Common), Intelligence(4)(Common), Mana(2)(Common), Luck(20)(Common)]

"You...Hey! Wake up!"

Speechless, Yayoi kicked the pig's head. To his surprise, it didn't even open its eyes. Perhaps, due to being the overlord of the mountain for so long, unrivaled, the pig just snorted a little, adjusted its position, and continued to sleep.

"Ha! Suit yourself!" Since the pig is so careless and stupid, Yayoi also wouldn't bother to talk about honor. He put his hand on top of its head and used [Taming].

"?"

[You tamed a Level 11 Black Wild Boar!]

[+1000 EXP!]

"Holy shit! So many experience points!"

Is this a benefit of being under-leveled?

If this world were a game, then this guy could be considered the final boss in the beginner village.

When he calmed down, Yayoi silently looks at the still-sleeping pig. His eyes seem a little complicated. Then, he smiled and patted its back with some heavy slaps.

"Good fella! I'll make sure to keep you well-fed in the future!"

Meanwhile,

In the black wild boar's dream, it was running happily on the mountain chasing butterflies. Then out of nowhere, a huge hand suddenly descended from the sky and crushed the butterflies to death.

The wild boar, enraged, charged toward the huge hand but was slapped away.

Again and again, it was slapped away, but it didn't give up.

Just as it was about to charge again, the huge hand suddenly gave it tons of food. Wowza!!! They look so delicious~ It's mouthwatering. Then the boar thought, 'Instead of getting slapped for nothing, why don't I eat these delicious-looking foods?'

Ultimately, the black wild boar stopped charging and made friends with the giant hand. However, after they become friends, that hand suddenly disappears, and its food also vanishes!

What!?

Why!!!

The black wild boar suddenly woke up from its dream. Its confused eyes opened only to see the smiling face of a detestable human.

"Oink?!!(Who are you?)"

The pig quickly stood up, over 2 meters tall and 3.5 meters long. Its two front legs were prominent and muscular. Dense, thick back hairs covered its cheeks, the top of its head, and shoulders, making it look especially wild.

Yayoi laughed: "Haha, you finally woke up? Surprise!! But it's too late for regrets! Don't looks at me with that eyes. Who told you to sleep so deeply."

Despicable!

*Oinnkkk!*

When the black wild boar finally calmed down and accepted its fate. Yayoi helped Xiao Ling'er get down from the tree. For this tall and strong pig, she named it Xiao Hei(Little Black).

After putting a folded blanket on Xiao Hei's back, Yayoi quickly mounted it and pulled Ling'er up into his arm. He raised his wooden spear forward and shouted: "Let's go, Xiao Hei! Show me what you got!"

"Oink!!Oink!!!"

Xiao Hei snored twice and roared loudly to show off its might. Its two front hooves stomped the ground hard, wiping up a wave of dust, and started dashing. Even in this mountainous terrain, Xiao Hei's speed was fast, almost comparable to a horse.

It's a proud pig!

*HAHAHA!*

Without a proper saddle, Yayoi has to cramp his leg tight to Xiao Hei's stomach so as not to get thrown off. For a time, the sounds of his laughter and Xiao Ling'er frightened scream echoed throughout the mountain.
