Chapter 9
Episode 9
Fang! X flicked his bowstring in the air.
The tremor of the heavy bow was transmitted to my fingertips.
X checked the information on the bow.
-Heavy Horn Bow (Rare)
A bow made from bison horn.
The craftsmanship was displayed generously.
Attack power: +10~25
Special effect: The heavy weight of the bow suppresses hand tremors. Hit rate increases slightly.
“Even though you don’t have any skills, your attack power is pretty good, right?”
If you continue to use the bow, you will automatically gain a passive skill. At that time, the uneven attack power can be compensated to some extent.
X walked while flicking his bow to get used to the bow.
Before we knew it, we had reached the fallen leaf road where foxes appeared.
“What are you going to do if we steal it?”
“What do you mean, Steele, the guy I targeted first?”
“It’s so shameless and oily. Are you afraid of poop and avoid it?…”
“What poop? “Are you done?”
Foxes, unlike bison, were not forced into party hunting.
If the individual’s skills were supported, solo play was also possible.
Therefore, it was not uncommon for users to fight among themselves over ownership of seats.
X shrugged his shoulders.
“I’m glad. “I don’t have to go through such tiring things.”
X’s only goal is the fire fox!
There was no need for the foxes to come out and catch them. The amount of experience it gave was small, and the items it dropped were nothing compared to the bison.
The fire fox appeared only after climbing the ridge at the end of the fallen leaf road.
X took a step forward, catching the fox that was running at him without fear.
After seeing X like that, users started talking.
“Kills a fox with one blow. “It seems like the level is higher than it looks.”
“But why did you come here when your level is so high?”
“I guess they came to catch the fire fox.”
“It’s going to be a lot of trouble.”
“If you leave it alone, you’ll just waste a few days like everyone else and then go back.”
Users were flirting everywhere.
X knew the meaning behind that smile.
‘It’s not that easy to get fire fox fur, right?’
Fire fox fur!
It is an extremely expensive item priced at 100 gold each.
There was a good reason why it was expensive.
Fire fox fur has a low drop rate, but is very effective.
Items made from fire fox fur have flame properties. The fire attribute causes additional damage to most monsters, and this fire fox fur was the only material that could make fire attribute items at that level.
X quenched his appetite.
“If you only get three, you won’t have any wishes.”
One for Rubin.
One on the sword.
One on the bow.
Of course, I didn’t have high expectations. As users said, fire fox fur is a unique item. This means that it is rarer than the rare grade.

After arriving at the ridge, X glared between the trees.
Bright and red.
A fire fox burning particularly red was seen among the fallen leaves.
“found.”
X took out his bow without hesitation.
It’s my first time. I’m not confident I’ll get it right, but eventually I’ll have to get used to it. X inserted an arrow and pulled the bowstring. Pang! When I let go of the bowstring, the arrow flew out.
“nice!”
puck! An arrow that hits at once.
The fire fox, who suffered considerable damage from the surprise attack, became angry.
The guy’s fire got stronger.
The fire fox rushed towards X.
‘It’s different from the bison. We have to move a little faster.’
X took out his sword and shield and concentrated. The fire fox moved faster than a bison. If you let your guard down, an attack is allowed.
Kang! Block the burning claws with your shield.
puck! He struck the nearby fire fox with the handle of his sword.
‘I hit it pretty hard, but no abnormalities occurred.’
A truly tough opponent.
Moreover, the fire fox even used a trick.
As the battle dragged on, X’s victory became certain. Then the fire fox lowered its tail and began to pout as if it had become angry.
“Hey, aren’t you standing there?”
A fire fox hiding in a mountain covered in fallen leaves!
But X had no intention of letting go of the firefox like this. With wide-open eyes, I scanned the fallen leaves around me. Grumble! A fire fox was seen, unable to hide the flames.
“I won’t miss it twice, you bastard.”
puck! X’s sword rushed into the fire fox’s back.
X took a deep breath.
“Phew….”
‘You can’t be complacent. The opponents are real monsters.’
A living, moving, thinking monster!
If you let your guard down even for a moment, you never know how they might counterattack. X placed his hand on the firefox, feeling the thrill of victory.
“But since it’s unique, it’s better not to have any expectations, right?”
I never thought that I could get it by catching a precious fire fox fur.
Even thinking about it myself, it was something that pricked my conscience too much. It seemed like I would have to be satisfied with just tasting the fire fox meat here.
X checked the items that came to mind.
-Hot fire fox meat (rare)
Fire fox meat.
It has a unique taste and can be enjoyed as a delicacy.
Saturation: +60%
Special Effect: No penalty for eating without cooking. When consumed, resistance to cold increases by 50 percent for 30 minutes.
‘It will be useful when working in cold regions.’
Cold resistance. It was an effect suited to the characteristics of the fire fox.
“No matter how much I think about this…”
But X’s hands began to tremble after checking the information.
X couldn’t help but believe his own eyes.
“It’s a scam, right?”
An item information window came to mind afterward!
-Fire Fox Fur (Unique)
It contains an unquenchable fire.
Due to high demand, it can be traded at a high price.
Special Effect: When selling to a merchant NPC, intimacy increases significantly. When crafting or synthesizing items using ‘Fire Fox Fur’, you can now give lesser fire properties.
I only caught one.
I never thought that would fulfill the quest conditions!
X couldn’t believe this situation.
X looked at his trembling palms.
“…This golden hand is really mine.”
Since when did my hands look this pretty!
X couldn’t hide his joy.
Even as he let out a laugh, he followed the fire fox with his eyes.
“Hehe, where are you? “Guys.”
The first target was three fire fox furs.
We may be able to meet that goal more than double.
*
The night of Fate World is never easy.
Even experienced users cannot avoid the threat of the night.
Because darkness blocks vision, monsters that receive the energy of darkness become stronger.
However, X was an exception.
X had the precious firefox fur wrapped around his shoulders.
It is a substitute for a torch to light up the darkness.
X continued to hunt the fire fox until nightfall.
‘You like the night better, right? ‘I can see them much better!’
Firefoxes that shine in the dark!
It was difficult to tell during the day because of the fallen leaves, but it was easy at night. X went at speed at night to hunt the fire fox. The only time X rested was when he was low on satiety.
[Saturation level is less than 10%.]
“I need to rest a little.”
Should I shoot a bow or catch up with the fleeing guys?
The radius of body movement was much larger than when it was a bison. Although I invested points in patience, physical fatigue quickly accumulated. Tuk. X used fire fox fur as a substitute for a bonfire.
“Is there any food I haven’t tried?”
X checked the inventory.
There were a total of 8 fire fox furs collected so far. After all, unique was unique. At first, I was just lucky and it didn’t drop an item every time I caught it.
Even eight of them were a huge harvest.
There were times when regular users could not get even one firefox even if they spent a month on it. Soon, X’s expression became glum.
“Hmm, all I have is the meat I already ate.”
X is a greedy man. Every time I ate, I felt like I wanted to increase my abilities. X swallowed his regret and took out the oldest deer meat.
“The taste is amazing, but something is missing.”
for a moment.
X, who was about to put deer meat in his mouth, stopped.
X recalled the street food he had eaten before.
“Stir-fried potatoes, French fries, boiled whole potatoes… they were all made with the same potatoes, but each time you ate them, your abilities increased. “That sound…”
Rather than just foolishly looking for new ingredients, shouldn’t we be able to create new foods and tastes with the ingredients we already have? puck! X hit himself on the head.
“Even when I look at it, it’s really foolish. “You obviously had skills.”
Heavenly cuisine!
X has never used Heavenly Cooking before. This is because I was completely absorbed in the heavenly taste and heavenly capture. X thought carefully about his abilities.
“…But I have no connection to cooking?”
In real life, the only food I know how to cook is chicken, ramen, and rice.
There were only three.
If I were to find one more thing, how about a fried egg?
X, who had always been confident, became intimidated for the first time.
X, who was pondering, opened his mouth.
“Okay, let’s try baking it first.”
It’s fine as long as you don’t burn it.
With a solemn look on his face, X lit a bonfire with fire fox fur. I found a large tree branch and put the deer meat on it. gulp! X swallowed dry saliva and put the skewer into the fire.
‘Turn left, turn right.’
Concentrate all your attention on not burning the meat.
And when the blood drained, he muttered quietly.
“Heavenly cuisine.”
Slurp!
‘What’s going on?’
Then, I felt an unknown black smoke, like a shadow, envelop my body. The black smoke was moving around as it pleased.
X gave himself over and grilled the skewers as the smoke guided him.
Suddenly, the other hand moved towards the firewood.
‘Aha, I guess I need to light the fire more.’
How much time has passed?
Before I knew it, an amazing smell began to irritate my nose. Just smelling it made me feel ecstatic. X swallowed his saliva.
“Is it finally complete?”
Unidentifiable black smoke that disappeared without even mice or birds noticing.
Although X was dumbfounded, he couldn’t control his appetite.
It is impossible for a person to ignore such food.
X picked up the venison skewer with anticipation.
Then, an item grade that I had never seen before appeared.
-Deer meat skewers ( )
Grilled skewers that only bring out the natural taste of deer meat.
The moment you eat it, you will know the feeling of a deer roaming the mountains.
Special Effects: ?
“star?”
The special rating seemed to refer to that star.
X knew quite a bit about Fate. However, I have never seen items being classified into different grades.
“I’ll think about it later.”
X’s eyes kept looking at the grilled skewers.
Soon, X took a bite of the grilled skewer.
“!”
Crispy on the outside! The inside is moist!
It was immediately understandable why more firewood was added. The purpose was to thoroughly grill the outside of the meat to perfectly trap the juices.
X moved his mouth mumblingly.
‘This cannot be expressed in words.’
It feels like a deer is running around in my head.
It was a grilled skewer that brought out the natural taste of deer meat.
A notification appeared before X’s admiring eyes.
[Your heavenly sense of taste has discovered the hidden taste of ‘Ilseong Cuisine Venison Skewers’!] [
The energy of deer running through the forest is absorbed into your body!]
[Your movement speed in the forest is doubled for 60 minutes!]
[ Agility in the forest increases by 30 points for 60 minutes!]
“…This movement speed is doubled and agility is increased by 30 points?”
X’s eyes got so big that they seemed like they were going to pop out.
No, this is not the time. There was nothing to be surprised about.
Jump up! X got up from his seat without delay.
‘This is a revelation to get a full set of fire attributes!’
The given time is 60 minutes.
From now on, I couldn’t waste even a single minute.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
