Monster Hunt

Deep inside the forest, amidst the rustling bush. One can see a young man stalking an animal which seems to be a boar however this one has a mohawk, piercings and even has a tattoo.

This thug of a boar is currently looking some food and from what Peter noticed so far this one is a herbivore.

It's quite weird of a combination however this place has a game like system so its no wonder there are weird creatures here, the only thing that makes Peter wonder though is where do these animal came from.

...

The thug boar was sniffing around the clearing, looking for food when it noticed a shrub of maroon colored berries. The boar slowly approaches the berry while looking left and right cautious of someone will try to steal his meal.

Suddenly the boar noticed a rustling in a nearby bush. The thug boar growled wildly at it, as if saying that this berries was already has an owner.

the rustling stops and a squirrel looking animal rushed out of the brush and wuickly climbed the nearest trees.

Peter watches this thing happen in front of him with calmness, He already learned his lesson a while ago when he suddenly attack a similar species ending with him getting rammed and the target escaping.

seeing that the area was clear the boar once again move towards the berries and when it was close enough, it sensed that there is no one around anymore and it's safe to eat the berry.

The thug looking boar opened his mouth and began to devour the whole brush, when a knife suddenly come out on his left directly stabing its neck.

The boar squeels in panic and tried to run away, however a round rock smashes on his head stunning the boar for a few seconds, the hunter knows that this opportunity must not be wasted so he pulled out the knife on the boars neck and started stabbing the boar in rapid succession until the boar fell down.

Peter felt Ecstatic when he saw Inked the thug boar fell to the ground, He wanted ti scream however he stop himself immediately when he remembers that it may attract unwanted attention.

Looking at the corpse, Peter crouched to the ground and began dissecting the boar and tried to get as much materials as he can.

With his first hunt done, Peter quickly walks away from the area where he killed the boar as many scavengers will try to gather and fight for the remaining of the thug boar's corpse.

as he walks away, Peter grabbed the eyeball of the thug boar in his inventory and began inspecting it.

The eye in Peter's hand has a green Irises and a rather large pupils, its veins seems like a root of a plant and its texture is like a wet banana leaves.

after contemplating and studying for a bit, Peter put both eyes in his mouth and swallow it like grapes.

Upon checking his status, Peter finally figured one of the ways to improve his stats, that is for everything you consumed specially monster type, there's a great chance of recieving a status point or possibly a skill.

this should also go hand in hand with the fact that there are different quality on the materials, meat and other equipments.

Leveling a skill also provides a bonus status point and from what he can see so far the math should be one level is equal to one status point though he was unsure why he has a 0.5 in the accuracy stats.

knowing that he wouldn't be able to explore it for now as he have other things to do, Peter started looking for his next target and so far he only have one and has another four monster and one wood to go.

...

While walking Peter looked up in his library on some tutorials on how to activate his abilities, he just receive the [Nature Eyes] as one of his first active skill that he can actually use.

"So I just need to think about the skill I am using?" Peter talks to himself as he instictively closed his eyes and think about the skill he wanted to use.

[Nature Eyes]

Peter's eyes immediately open upon activation, his natural brown eyes has now changed into a mossy green color.
