Cheat Awakening

Chapter 6: Chapter 6. The Orc



Next Morning.

Since I don't want others to know about my skills, so I decided that it's better if I continue my original work of hunting, until matters related to this year's Awaking cool down.

Anyway, after people know what they want to know and wh they finally stop talking about other people's matters like "I heard that Luna's son get combat type skill, and she wanted to make him town guard so he doesn't put his head in any kind of dangerous job like Olga son, who dies just 3 days after becoming an advture" this kind of gossips is now main material for every household after dinner in the town.

Most of the skills that I took from a robber are related to combat, which I can make perfect use of in hunting and letting other people know that I don't have anything remarkable to care about.

[Dagger・Extreme][Swift Feet・Small][Sight Enhancemt・Moderate][Leg Strgth Enhancemt・Small], if I can make good use of them, I'd be able to hunt most of the animals without any problems in this area.

With these new skills, I can probably get nice prey and I can also train my skill in the forest without anyone knowing, just like my father always said: ( Mother nature is the best source of our power if you want to become powerful just come in wildlife and let's nature teach you.)

Sometimes father also said quite good words, he probably learn this from mother, Myne thought while eating.

Since mother teaches me everything that she knows, so of course, she also teaches me about cooking and I know every recipe that she knows, by the way, she doesn't know many recipes, she can only make t types of normal dishes that anyone in this town can make easily, what did you expect from a noblewoman? that she can make good foods, not a chance.

So most of the time it was the father's duty to make food, as for me and mother. We just eat siltly while giving father some complimts so he can make something new and interesting.

As for why a father doesn't teach me cooking because some worthless wom said something bad to mother and make false rumors about father since he made food in our house, ev though after hearing rumors mother has beat those wom until they start caring and begging mercy but after this incidt, she started learning cooking and she also drag me down in this as well.

But because of this for the last 6 years, I never had a problem related to food, this is also the reason for my overage well built muscular body.

Ah, something is not right, I made this vegetable soup with meat and bread more than hundreds of times but why is it taste so good today? Myne thought with confusion.

Suddly a thought comes to my mind, so this is because of my new skill [cooking]. No wonder I felt its taste differt today, cooking skills made food tastier than usual.

Okay, now I have to train my cooking skill and increase it's levels, so I can eat more delicious food.

...

Since I woke up quite early in the morning wh the sky is still dark, so I can complete my hunting before the temperature becomes too hot, ev though it's quite a pain in the ass to wake up early in the morning but forest in afternoon become too hot because of damp, that I can hardly op my eyes, let's not talk about finding prey.

I equipped a leather breastplate, gauntlet, and shin guards. I also affixed a dagger for dismantling monsters on my hip. I put my bow and arrows with all other useful and precious things in the Invtory, my safest place.

I also put away my all old savings in the Invtory as well, ev though they are not much just 790 silver coins and 578 copper coins, this is quite embarrassing to say but I didn't have a single gold coin in my savings.

Usually, I would set up all kinds of traps for small monsters like red ear rabbits or horn boars for extra income but not today. Today I want to use my new skills for hunting and my main target is mutton sheep.

Although mutton sheep isn't a fast monster, but due to its sharp pointy horns and coupled with its sleep attack power that can make a hole in a big tree easily, it is a troublesome creature.

That's why till today this is only a novice monster that I can't kill, but today is that fateful day wh those motherf*ckers going to die in my hand, Myne thought with full of spirit, while imagery fire burning in his eyes, like a curtain watermelon haircut guy who likes to wear gre cloth while saying "Let the power of youth explode in you."

However everything has a bad and good side, exactly because mutton sheep is troublesome to obtain, that's why it sold at high prices.

Ev though the meat has a peculiar flavour, and tests also wer't that great but its horns, hoofs, and other materials from his body, can be sold at high prices.

If I could hunt one or two mutton sheep, th I will probably make a good profit.

My preparations are finished, and after locking the house, I left for the nearby forest through the shortcut that take me directly to the town exit in a little amount of time.

The gatekeeper has changed, huh? I have never se him before, it seems like he is new on this post, while I am thinking he starts looking at me and just wh I cross him he said "Quite early ar't you boy, be careful rectly the forest is not that safe.

I will, thanks for your concern, Myne said with a smile.

He seems a nice guy but what is his mean that the forest is not safe? But wh I wanted to ask him more about the forest's currt situation, I saw that he already closed his eyes, he doesn't look like he wanted to talk anymore.

Why do I always meet those kinds of weird people? Myne thought while walking toward the forest, as for the gatekeeper's warning, since there is no official statemt about the forest being dangerous th that should not be a big deal.

After making ough distance from the town trance, I use my new skill [Swift Feet・Small]for the first time.

On the road that leads to the forest, I start running two times faster than my normal speed, while running I can feel the power of my new skill, not only I can run more smoothly with little consumption of my stamina but ev after running so long I still didn't feel any heaviness in my breathing.

What a magical skill, Myne thought, With the use of [Swift Feet・Small], in a blink of an eye, he arrived at his destination.

After tering the forest I start looking for my prey with caution without making any noise.

Soon I saw a pair of red-colored long ears behind the bush.

[ Name: Forest・Rabbit

Race: Rabbit Family

Gder: Male

[Ability]

None ]

Ev though it is not the mutton sheep I'm looking for, but a normal red ear rabbit, who was always be my best source of income.

...hmm? Wait a minute what is this? A word I have never se or heard before?

Ability? Do monsters also have skills?? Wh this happed, how can I never hear about this, Myne thought confusedly.

[Ability]: A unique skill that is based on a monster physique. Gerally more powerful than Hume's skills but can't level up easily.

... Based on the explanation it seems like they're monster-exclusive skills.

Since it says that monsters' ability is based on their 'physique', th ev if I steal those abilities for myself, I probably can't use them.

Although most of the time I hunt my prey with the bow but now that I have close combat skills, th monster like red ear rabbit is practice buddy for me.

I held my dagger and walked toward the red ear rabbits slowly.

The red ear rabbit noticed me and leaped towards me with naked fury visible in his eyes like he had just gott beat by his wife and now, he hurriedly wanted to vt his frustrations on someone!

l activated my both[Leg Strgth Enhancemt・Small]and,[Sight Enhancemt・Moderate ] skills for more agility.

After using[Sight Enhancemt・Moderate ], I can see the red ears rabbit's upcoming attack without any problems, so I dodged his attack easily, and stuck out my dagger on his back.

I could feel the dagger slice through the red ear rabbit's flesh. The red ear rabbits after getting a critical hit let out a loud scream before rolling on the g with a bloodstained body.

Do red-ear rabbits always so weak, it feels like I just bully a child, Myne thought while looking at seriously wounded red-ear rabbits, he is still breathing, trying to stand up, ev though he might die any momt.

Seeing the red ear rabbit's unnecessary struggle, I raised the dagger overhead and stabbed it into his heart. Just like that, I defeated a red ear rabbit so easily that I am having a debut in my intelligce since in order to catch these monsters he has set up all kinds of traps in the tire forest.

Just wh I was about to use my[Cut]skill to disassemble the red ear rabbit. I saw that the red ear rabbit's body suddly vanished from its place.

This sudd change in the evt left me completely speechless that I can't ev react ev after minutes.

What's going on? Which montherf*cker steal my prey and how the hell he did do this, I thought angrily while looking at places where red ear rabbit's corpses suddly disappear on their own?

After investigating a and without finding any clue, I close my eyes and start thinking about the tire situation.

This is the first time that something like this happed and this is not normal.

The way the red ear rabbit's body vanished seemed quite familiar, it looks like I saw this somewhere before, as I said this to myself, I suddly remember one of my skills.

Oh yes, The Invtory.

Every time I use Invtory, before my things transfer in Invtory there was always a small light shining on them, just like how the forest rabbit corpse shines a little before it's vanished.

After that, I hurriedly op my Invtory and saw the corpse of a red ear rabbit inside one of the storage boxes.

So it means that if I kill someone, th his body automatically transfers to the Invtory.

I don't know what more surprise my original skills will give me, Myne thought with a smile.

This function is also quite good and it works the same as a storage bag but is more advance, in a storage bag you have to touch that item first before you can put it in.

So ev if someone saw a dead body suddly vanishing in front of them, they just think that this will be some high-grade storage bag. so I don't have to worry too much about my Invtory this function.

Just wh I was about to close the Invtory I saw that below the circle symbol that allows me to go inside the Invtory, there is a new symbol formed of two knives in cross style continually shining.

Without hesitation, I click on the symbol and I saw that body of the forest rabbit automatically disassembled perfectly, all of the red ear rabbit's body parts were cut without any single waste and placed in differt boxes.

So this symbol can disassemble dead bodies without any waste, huh, this function is quite powerful, after all in the progress of disassembling dead monsters, some parts of their body always damage and lose their value, this was also the reason that most of powerful hunter or advturers bring powerful and Precious monsters tire body with them and sold it in one piece.

Now, let's look at my main target.

...

After wandering for nearly half an hour in the forest like a ghost and slaying two more red ear rabbits, I still can't find my main target.

Those f*cking sheep before wh I didn't want to meet them, they always come in my way to make trouble but today wh I finally wanted to meet them, I can't see their shadow, where the hell do those damn sheep go?

While I was still thinking that where can find those damn sheep, I saw a big black silhouette standing from afar.

The first thing that comes to my mind after seeing this big black silhouette is that I hit a Jackpot.

Finally found you, Myne thought while walking toward the giant mutton sheep slowly.

Wait a minute why is that mutton sheep look so big and wh did they learn to stand on two feet?

Something is not right, Myne thought and hurriedly use [Sight Enhancemt・Moderate].

After using [Sight Enhancemt・Moderate]Myne clearly saw a gre two-meter tall muscular body under a giant tree.

Is that an Orc? Myne thought while rubbing his eyes, in order to confirm that he doesn't have an illusion. Otherwise, what is an intelligt monster like Orc ( not much Intelligt but smarter than the 5-year-old child ) doing in this deserted area of the forest?

After all, this place is close to the town so, of course, people have already tak away every valuable resource in this area.

That's why there are only red ear rabbits and mutton sheep live here since they eat grass, and people in the town can't eat grass, other than those two species there are no other monsters found here.

Also because of this reason that those Guruppis sold so well, after all, you can't find them in this area, so their demand is quite high.

An orc is a humanoid monster from "Demon Race".

They have atrocious physical strgth, possessing really tough skin, he's a considerably troublesome fellow.

Since They are differt from other species because like goblins they are also famous for kidnapping wom and raping them in order to increase their population.

Frankly, I had never se an Orc before but I heard quite a lot about them from advtures.

Most of the Orcs have a high temper, and low IQ, they can easily get fooled, they like beautiful Hume wom rather than Orc females for sex.

I don't know if I ev have a chance if I fight with this guy, Myne thought while hiding behind a bush and use Appraisal on the Orc.

[ Name: Orc

Species: Demon Race

Gder: Male

[Skill]

Strong Arm

[Ability]

Roar ]

Huh, he has both Skill and Ability!

As expected he is on a completely differt level than other monsters.

With my physical strgth, I don't think that my dagger can ev pierce through his rock-hard muscular skin.

But before I make any decisions, it's better if I steal his skill, it looks quite strong, Myne thought while rubbing his hands like a professional businessman.

As for the Ability, since I can't use it th let's paste it on the tree over there.

Now let's Appraisal, my new baby.

[Strong Arm]: Voluntarily activated type Skill, it's activated on one's desired timing. Wh used, one's arm strgth will be doubled for seconds.

A cooldown of 30 minutes is required before using it again.

This is a good skill, although it has a long cooldown time but still it's a powerful skill.

Now since I have one more powerful skill, and that Orc also lost his skill and ability, so I wonder if it's possible to kill that big guy, Myne thought seriously.

Let's give it a try, Myne decides after seeing that the profit overweight the loss.

Afterall the Orc tire body is a walking treasure trove, for a low-level hunter like me but for safety reasons it might be better if I use a long-range attack, rather than fighting in close combat

After that Myne took out a bow and arrow from his Invtory and was ready to take action wh he suddly remembered something.

Oh shit! How can I forget about my magic skill, I thought while slapping on my head and again putting away his bow and arrow.

Since I never come into contact with magic, of course, it's quite hard to remember something like this, magic is still an unimaginable thing for me, and that's why I almost forgot about this skill.

Okay, let's do that, Myne said after taking a deep breath.

After that he slowly wt behind the Orc, who is still standing in his place like a Sculpture, only God knows what he doing there.

Eat this you gre potato, Myne said after Orc come in his skill attack range.

[Magic・Wind].

While cutting off the twigs of the bushes which were on the way. the invincible one-meter-long wind blade shot from Myne's hand and flew toward the orc.

〈Gya?〉

The noise of the twigs from the bushes being cut was heard by the orc, and he turned his head toward the noise with a confused expression.

But before he could know what going on, one meter-long wind blade spldidly hit him on his shoulder at super high speed.

〈Guoooooo–!!〉

The injured Orc let out a loud scream that can make most of the people in the town pee in their pants after hearing it.

But after using just one magic attack, my body suddly started to feel tired like I had just done a heavy workout, and if I use the magic attack one more time, th I can't walk for some minutes because of exhaustion.

It seems like magic skill consumes too much of my ergy, Myne thought while using both[Leg Strgth Enhancemt・Small]and[Swift Feet ・Small]and immediately leaped to the orc's chest with all his strgth.

While Orc is still in pain and crying in his weird language, I use the [Strong Arm]skill that I took from him, and cut up his huge stomach in one go with the dagger.

The orc writhing in pain flailed its arms but

I took a step back hurriedly, and once again activated [Magic・Wind].

With the little distance betwe us, the wind blade directly hit his neck and cleanly cut off his head from the neck.

The Orc's big head falls on the g with eyes op widely, and soon after that his -meter gre body also falls on the g while burying Orc's scary face under his muscular chest.

Just as the Orc body falls to the g, Myne also sits down on the g while panting heavily.

Soon after some seconds the Orc's body automatically vanished from his place and appear in Myne Invtory.

Myne nodded his head with satisfaction after seeing the Orc body in his Invtory, and with a click, he disassembled the orc body completely.

I come here for mutton sheep but hunt down an Orc, ev if I say this to anyone, no one going to believe in me, Myne said to himself with a smile while laying on the g.

This is the first time I ev fight someone as powerful as an orc. my heart still beating like a drum. This was my life's most exciting but dangerous fight.

If his father was alive and knows about this, he is probably ashamed to say himself a professional hunter.

But now, I just hope that there are no monsters in this area, otherwise, I will probably be in great trouble, Myne thought while waiting to recover his lost ergy.
