The Rise Of Rim
Chapter 4 - Hunting
*BUZZ* Before Louis started thinking using a tree trunk, his rumbling stomach was loud.
Hunger is the right word to describe it.
"This feeling of hunger...? I haven't eaten anything before." Louis.
Rim has a strong resistance to cold, as well as their hunger. Once they eat, they can hold their next hunger for up to three days.
Their appetite is also not much different from humans. Raw or fire-baked meat and fresh fruits to various other types of food.
"System, activate the craft!" Louis.
The system activates the craft and brings up the blank screen as before.
Previously, he made axes, but now he thinks of making weapons to hunt animals, such as bows, swords, to other weapons.
Louis closed his eyes and imagined a long wooden sword that he could use to hunt in the wild.
At first he thought of a bow, but he remembered that he only had wood, he had no rope to pull the arrow, it would be a waste if he made it.
He finally decided to make a sharp sword that could kill monsters in this forest.
After he had imagined the sword, it required around 40 wooden twigs. He directly inserted 40 wooden twigs into the system screen and automatically, the system made the wooden sword.
After a few minutes later, a wooden sword formed in front of the system screen.
Louis took. He tried to swing the sword left, right and up to try its lightening.
Once he tried it, the sword was not heavy but it looked strong, it seemed like he could cut some wolf or bear stomachs with it.
"It's a good sword, now let's hunt."
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
A little while later, Louis arrived in the middle of the forest close to the starting point where he cut down trees.
The forest area was colder than the others, although the monster was not yet seen, yet he was definitely near here, Louis was moving further into the forest.
In his right hand, he was carrying a powerful long wooden sword, without any chest and head protective gear, he had even forgotten to make a shield.
"I look like an ancient man who hunts with sharp objects." Louis.
When the wind calmed down, the crashing snowstorm had already stopped a moment ago. Louis can move calmly, his steps treading snow with a slightly trembling body condition because this is the first time he hunts in the wild.
Steps... Steps... Steps...
His steps were calm and silent.
As he went further, something appeared in the bushes, looking big and long, he tried to hide his calm steps, yet it was useless for the monster figure that appeared in the bushes.
The figure of the monster was four-legged with a body like a cow but fatter and horns on its head were three and had a blackish red color like a demon.
'Is that a demon cow? The memory of the monster was quite faint, I only knew the traits and some other insignificant things.'
The information he got in that world was limited to general knowledge.
The three-horned cow-like monster looked at Louis upon his arrival in front of him. Her eyes were bright blue with breaths coming out of her mouth exhaling her countless times.
Is it a carnivore or a herbivore? The monster in front of Louis looked angry and he had a habit of attacking people he had just met.
*BUKK*
His feet hit the ground, the cow dashed forward towards Louis.
His short, hairy yet strong legs made him move quite quickly over the snow.
He doesn't care about the surroundings and ignores anything he goes through.
Louis immediately prepared his sword and faced it forward.
Behind his calm face, he thought of every way he could do to win. "... This is bad, I should have made a spear, not a sword." Louis.
The three-horned cow lunged forward, Louis dodged to the left letting the cow pass him.
Unable to stop because it was too fast, the cow hit the tree trunk behind Louis.
*HUKK!!*
Three horns stuck in the trunk of the tree, Louis did not want to miss this opportunity, he directly pointed his wooden sword at the back of the cow and directly stabbed it.
Red blood spurted from the body of the cow, the sword made of wood penetrated into her skin to make her squirm in pain.
The cow tried to escape from Louis' wooden sword and horn that stuck in the tree trunk, but the more he moved, the more blood came out and made his stamina drained.
"This demon cow is so powerful."
The longer it went, the more limp it fell on the snow. His blue eyes began to close but at the end of his life, he still tried to break away until he finally closed his eyes with breath that stopped.
Louis let out a sigh of relief and he immediately pulled his wooden sword from the skin of the demon cow.
"It's over." Louis.
The cow was dead, now all he had to do was take it to where he collected the tree trunk.
Louis lifted the cow, quite surprised because he easily lifted the big cow. His current strength might be equivalent to that of a powerful adult human, or even more.
Perhaps it was related to his different race, which was the rim.
Rim, having dragon blood in her, even though they are physically the same as humans, their strength might be equivalent to an ice dragon.
The ice dragon is another word to mention the dragon that lives in the dragon mountain range, the southern part of the northern hinterland.
They spouted ice and froze what was before them, their physiques were extremely strong and capable of lifting extremely heavy weights.
As for their size, normally they were 10 meters tall with wide wings and a large body, in fact, there were dragons of a size much larger than their normal size.
The rim used to live in the shadow forest, because the dragons, they used sea lanes to pass through the dragon territory and reach the northern interior.
Why don't they go south where their allies, humans might be able to accept them? Louis didn't know even when he tried to remember.
The memories that entered his brain were general information that everyone knew, he knew nothing about the great secrets or secret organizations even the rare artifacts hidden in the labyrinth.
something limits it to capture all the information in this world.
"If I knew many things..." Louis said briefly.
To be continued...
