Solo Player Arvin

Chapter 39 - -38<The Hunt-1>



Arvin has never hunted anything before. Today was the day he would hunt for the first time. With his new strength and a new weapon, Arvin set out to hunt. As he had never hunted before in his life, he didn't have any plans or strategies about the hunt. Hell, he didn't have plans about the animal that he would like to hunt. For now, he had decided that the first living thing that gets in his sight would his target.

With resolve in his eyes, Arvin transformed into a Corgan and took a flight. Arvin had made a very simple plan for his hunt. He had decided that he would fly in the sky and will look out for any animal. As soon as the finds a target he would then just transform back in mid-air and will come raining down on the animal-like meteor falling from the sky. It was the most simple plan he could think of. ​​

But before even he set out for the hunt, he had to make sure of few things…

'Lopt, I want you to promise me that you will not interfere in my hunt.'

{Come again, runt.}

'I want to promise that you will not interfere in the hunt. I want to do this all by myself.'

{*hehe*….. Sure. I will be more than happy to stay quiet.} Lopt said.

The reason behind Arvin's request was simple. Although Lopt is here to help him, he didn't want to become dependent on him. From what he had learned, Lopt was not supposed to be in contact with him. It was against the rule of this world. And if a day comes when Lopt loses contact with him, he had to be enough powerful and capable that he could live off without him. That is why he wanted to diminish his dependency on Lopt.

So with a plan in his mind, Arvin got naked and then transformed into a Corgan and flew away from the stream. Arvin knew that if he goes too deep in the forest then he may encounter a beast or monsters that are too dangerous for him to handle. But he stays in the outer area, he will encounter a beast that is too easy to kill from his current strength. So he had to hunt in the sweet spot between the innermost circle and outermost circle of the forest.

But hunting turned out to be more difficult than he thought it to be. Because spotting beast from the sky was not easy. The canopy of trees made it fairly difficult for Arvin to spot any animal. But soon, Arvin was finally able to see a scene that he was yearning for. He was able to see a wolf…

In a little clearing in the forest, Arvin saw a wolf. That wolf had brown color fur and looked like he was devouring a deer. As soon as Arvin saw the wolf, he started thinking about how he should attack the wolf. Should he sneak up to him or should he use the tactic that he thought before, the one where he transformed in mid-air and fall on his prey…

{Are you sure that you want to attack the wolf?}

'What do you mean?'

{Well that is a wolf. And you are a small puppy. I think he way beyond your league.}

'Woah… Unbelievable. That is your opinion about me? Let me tell you, I will kill that wolf and wear its pelt as a coat.' Arvin said.

{Are you sure? You know it is not too late to change your decision, you know.}

'I have made my decision. I will hunt that wolf and show how capable I am.'

{…..}

Hearing no reply from Lopt, Arvin got very angry. He may be not the strongest out there, but the way Lopt treated him made him very angry. So he had decided that not only he will hunt this wolf, but also he will hunt many animals that are as dangerous as that wolf down there.

Arvin did not want to extend the battle for too long. So he decided that he would hunt the wolf with the same mid-air transformation tactic that he thought of before. So, flew around the wolf for a few minutes, thinking about the trajectory and such. If he wants to end the battle swiftly he had to be precise. So it was only after flying around the wolf for a minute or two, Arvin decided that the time had finally come to test whether his tactic was as effective as he thought to be.

According to the plan, Arvin first flew away from the location of the wolf. And then he returned back with speed. While coming back Arvin gradually decreased his altitude and thus started his descent. And at the crucial point, he transformed back into a human form.

Arvin had been using his shape-shifting skill for a while now. And he had now grasped the time it takes to transform back and forth into a human. So if his calculations were right he would fully transform back to human form, roughly 5 meters above the target. That gave him about 2 sec to take out the ax and shove it the wolf's head.

Everything happened as Arvin had calculated. He transformed back into a human just 5 meters above his target. And with the newfound speed, it was fairly easy for him to take out the ax from his inventory and shove the ax in the wolf's skull. The momentum of his fall combined with Arvin's strength made it pretty easy for the ax head to open the wolf's skull up like a cantaloupe.

As Arvin opened the wolf's head, a lot of blood came pouring out of the wolf's body that covered Arvin's torso. Some people may become too nauseous with the sight of all the blood. But Arvin had worked in a butcher shop. So he was not nauseous at all. But he was a little bit concern about the fact that he took a bath just a few minutes ago. But he was happy that his plan worked as he intended it to be. But his happiness was short-lived…

With the increased strength and speed, Arvin's body senses also got upgraded to a certain level. It because of his supernatural senses, Arvin was able to hear the sound of twigs cracking that was coming from behind him. Hearing the noise, Arvin turned back. Behind him, there were some bushes which made it harder for him to spot anything. But Arvin believed in his hearing ability. He knew that something was there in the bushes. And it is just waiting for an opportunity to attack him.

So, Arvin got ready assailant. He took out his ax from the skull of the wolf and got in the fighting pose facing the direction from where the noise came from. Behind the bushes, there was another wolf, he was of the same kind as the one that Arvin had killed just now. That wolf wanted to avenge his comrade and wanted to sneak attack, Arvin. But seeing his fighting pose, he understood that now the sneak attack was out of the question. So to do a frontal attack, that wolf came out of the bushes.

Seeing another wolf coming out of the bushes, Arvin prepared for the upcoming. Right now he may be the naked guy with the blood of a wolf all over his body, but Arvin had a resolve of a warrior in his eyes. Seeing his resolve Lopt was seriously impressed. After all, he had never seen such resolve in the eyes of his previous apostles…

That wolf, then lunged towards Arvin at full speed. When the wolf came near Arvin, he jumped on his baring his fangs, but Arvin swift sidestepped from his trajectory and thus avoided the wolf's attack. But the wolf was simply too enraged by his comrade's death. So as soon as the wolf landed on his feet after an unsuccessful attack on Arvin, he jumped on him again.

This time also Arvin was swiftly able to avoid the attack. Seeing the wolf's attacking pattern and his speed, Arvin realized that this wolf was very weak. And he could kill him very easily. So when the wolf, lunged at him again the third time, Arvin not only avoided the attack but also was able to shove his ax deep into the stomach of a wolf.

The ax's head made a very deep wound in the stomach of the wolf. Blood came rushing out of the wolf's stomach. Seeing this scene, Arvin smiled at his accomplishments. But before he could do anything, he heard…

{*HAHAHAHA*…. You killed them both…. This is too hilarious…*HAHAHA*} Lopt started laughing like crazy.

As Arvin heard Lopt's laughter, he had a very bad premonition. It was then he heard it…

*AAAOOOOWWW*

Arvin started hearing wolve's howling from all directions. He didn't know how many or how close the wolves were. But from what he could hear, he knew that he should get out of her as soon as he could…

{Kiddo you crack me up. Haven't you heard? Wolves always travel in a pack. And if someone kills one of their comrades then they will travel to the depths of hell for vengeance. And yet here you are bathed in the blood of two wolves.}
