My Last Hunt

Level Three (part 31)

The forgot that he was frightened, he was looking with blank eyes. Where he was supposed to go in the middle of the night but to see how much he angered this buddy, there was no way if he beg again and he would forgive. He nodded and went out of the cave but suddenly turned around. "Buddy, this last please forgive me. In return of this favor you can treat me as your luggage dog I won't mind nor runaway." he fell on his feet.

Qiao was gritting his teeth but he was not heartless to the extent to not give another chance especially when he also wanted this chaser to read a booklet for him. "This last and better you remember your words." Qiao could not sleep because of the creepy and disgusting feelings another man sticking him like a bug.

He got ready early morning, it will be little tough today to hunt level two monster but he has no choice if he wanted to pay the full price for the booklet then he has to do it. Then he looked toward the chaser who was standing at the outside of the cottage because he was going to lock it. Qiao thought to bring him along as he was also worried where to hunt alone.

"I am going to hunt level two monster, if you have some guts to follow my instructions then you can come along." he glared in his eyes and spoke with all the hunting aura of a chaser. Fortunately the chaser did not budge or coward instead nodded seriously. He himself was thinking that if his master gave him a chance in hunting along with him then he would be indebted to him for all his life.

With this Qiao will be able hunt two monsters and buy the booklet, also this chaser will get enough spoils to pay the fee of the Guild and no more bother Qiao. They walked between the lanes and paths in the Middletown hub to leave for the forest but to see the weird sand dunes they stopped for a while. Many traders, workers, wanderers, chasers were standing to take a look.

Qiao overheard them, "No one escaped the rathe of the hunter, all of them mercilessly killed with strange stone. I wonder which continent the hunter ventured and got it." "I first time witnessed the anger of a stronger hunter, I swear to never offend such hunter."

"Did you hear, his son survived."

"Stop bullsh*t, do you wants us to be implicated?"

"Don't speak about it, the hunter would came looking for whoever know about his son."

Qiao left after some time, he deeply breathed to see the kind of revenge.

Today he chose where he could easily find level two monsters. "What is your name?" Qiao asked in dry tone. "Master, my name is Limmu." he hurriedly answered. "Don't call me master again and it was better if you name yourself Li Mu*"

The chaser understood what he meant. When they were entering in the forest, one of his enemy team noticed him and started following. Qiao has developed a habit that whenever he entered or exit the forest, he would carefully cast a glance around to make sure no one was after him.

Today he did the same and spotted the team but pretended as if he was not giving attention around. "Limmu, did you ever faced some chasers as your enemies and a hurdle for level up?" Qiao asked to know how much he could expect from this chaser. "Hm, my father work in one of the traders shops so he asked his senior to help me get in a team without worry later I slowly leveled up and remain remained in the same team till today. The team left for Hightown and I was left behind because of low level. And I never fell in the trap of other teams and enemies." he truthfully related and from his face, he seemed regretting the pampered hunting.

"The team must be generous?" he asked out of curiosity because until now whoever he met never witness someone generous. "No, they pitied me and gave a little experience in ever second hunt."

While talking they reached the region of level two monsters. "I will explain a little then, I have number of enemies because I have offended more than enemies than the number of my birth years. So you have to be alert if don't want to die."

If it was before, the chaser must have reacted with frightened expressions but now he listened and nodded, "Those who are your enemies are my enemies as well from now on. I wanted to test whether I have guts to further level up or I am a shame for my old father." The time Qiao spoke about his guts triggered his ego and now he would not coward no matter if the death was standing right in front of him.

Instead Qiao got surprised to hear him. He blinked and then shook his head, the way he spoke to the low guts men is enough to bring alive a dead body much less a living human called 'Limmu'

"Come out you monkeys." Qiao shouted toward where the enemy team was hiding and spoke to Limmu, "If you really wanted to learn then start hunting humans who chase like shameless insects." he was going to see them who they were and how this chaser would react in front of them.

If he cannot stand straight in front of humans then how he was supposed to hunt the angry monsters.

The team which was hiding came in front and the leader laughed, "You still dare to show this attitude despite knowing that we belong to Guild while you a rogue." the team leader pointed his sword.

[* In simplified chinese, li mu means blackthorn so Qiao suggested this because this chaser was like a thorn for him]
