Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Monster Subjugation

'Should I follow them, I should focus on my quest, for now, I will think about joining a guild later, creating a guild would also be fun' Ray mumbled to himself and walked toward the nearest city gate.

The capital city has four gates in total, after falling in line for a few minutes, Ray walked out of the gate. He showed his adventurers ID and the guards let him leave the city.

After walking a few minutes he came across the forest where the receptionist gave him directions, "let's finish this quickly" Ray said as he walked inside.

Ray's blood spear which he kept at home appeared in his hands and he looked around for any monster. A noise alerted Ray, hiding behind a bush he got a closer look at the creature.

It was a fanged boar as the quest said, he just needed to kill two of these and retrieve their crystal core as proof, the fanged boar, was a powerful creature who could crush your bones with the two big front teeth.

'How am I going to kill that' Ray reasoned and he just came out of the bush and showed himself to the boar as an idea crossed his mind.

The boar looked at Ray and started brushing its foot against the ground getting ready to charge.

The boar charged toward Ray and at the last moment before the boar could reach him, he jumped out of the way. The boar was not as fast as wolves or strong as orcs, it was just in the middle, and also not too big.

The boar turned back and charged toward Ray, this time with more ferocity, once again he jumped but this time on top of the boar, Ray stabbed the head of the boar a couple of times before it stopped moving and finally died.

(You've received 100 Exp for defeating fanged boar)

'simple' Ray muttered as he saw the system interface, he waited a while and when the boar disintegrated he took the crystal core and kept walking forward.

Ray walked forward and backward making sure not to stray too far, he encountered two more fanged boars and successfully killed them and obtained their crystal, the system rewarded him with 300 Exp for completing the task he was given.

He really wanted to stay and find more but it was really hard to find monsters in this forest, "now that I think about it, it has been a long time I saw my progress" Ray said.

While Ray was distracted by this he heard an incredibly loud snort coming from behind him, he turned around and saw a large fanged boar rushing towards him.

This was no ordinary fanged boar, the boar charged toward him but at the last second, he managed to dodge the boar with only an inch.

Ray knew he was too slow to face this fanged boar, if he tried doing what he just did he could get seriously injured, he had to come up with a plan.

The fanged boar had recovered and was now aiming at Ray again, "there's no shame in running, I already got what I wanted" Ray said as he turned back and ran.

The boar chased after him, but Ray found a tree with nice branches and quickly climb on top.

The fanged boar looked up at Ray on top of the tree, the boar couldn't climb or fly so it did the only thing it could, it moved back a little and used its full strength and started slamming the tree.

The boar's strength was impressive as the tree already wanted to fall over, that was when it came to Ray the [Transformation] skill was making him weak, there was no one around so no harm can be caused.

Before the boar delivered a final hit to the tree, Ray jumped off and changed back to his beast form.

"I didn't know I would miss this" Ray said as he looked at his body, the tree had fallen off and the fanged boar was surprised to see a beast there instead of the human it was chasing.

Ray looked at the boar and smiled, the boar charged anyway, Ray has twice the speed he had before, and dodging the boar was now easy.

The boar missed Ray a couple of times but this time Ray was now tired of having fun, one his blood spear increased and he slashed the boar with strength, the boar didn't even feel the attack and turned back to attack Ray.

"Such tough skin" Ray mumbled as he dodge the boar's attack, 'I just need to get on top of him and strike there'.

Ray had a plan in mind, he just hoped the boar played along and it did, Ray ran away and the boar chased after him, this time he could escape if he wanted but he wanted to defeat the boar.

The boar chased after him, and with anger, the boar used full speed to crush Ray from behind, but that was Ray's plan, Ray jumped sideways, and before the boar could register what happened its head crashed into a large rock.

The boar was dazed from this and Ray knew it was his chance, he threw one of his blood spears to the ground and ran the rock, using to rock as a stepping stone Ray jumped and increased his blood spear mid-air and pierced right into the head of the dazed fanged boar and immediately it fell to the ground.

(You've earned 300 Exp for defeating evolved fanged boar)

"Phew, that was harder than I thought" Ray caught his breath as he received the system prompt and the boar began to disintegrate.

"Time to go back, shit the transformation" Ray remembered the first time he changed to a human he was naked.

"system how does the transformation skill work, explain it to me?" Ray asks the system.

[Transformation] think vividly of what you want to look like and activate

That was all the system told him, Ray remembered how he looked when he saw himself in the mirror, he captured that image in his head and [Transform].

Ray opened his eyes slowly and it worked, he was fully dressed how he was before with everything including his adventurer ID. The clothes he was wearing contained a pocket and that was where he kept the crystals.
