Another 4 hours later, Stone finished his hunt for the day!
This time he actually hunted 55 Lvl-1 Beasts in total.
With the help of his Shadow Bow, he didn't get tired as easily.
Although it drained a lot of mana, it was worth it, He can level up now! He just needs to finish the Quests.
Furthermore, he was tired right now, as after Shadow consumed his mana, he had to drink the potions, and... he was left with none.
And so... he returned back to his blade strategy.
He gained quite a lot from this as well!
Aside from some mastery, He got [Archery] which was registered as a Skill under [Weapon and Martial Mastery], and [Mana Reinforcement] Under [Mana Control].
He also learned [Hunter Eyes], and [Concentration] which also helped him a lot.
Really! working hard always pays off!
He got good skills indeed, People actually need to redo a certain action dozens of times or have a great understanding of a skill to actually learn or recreate it, Yet here he got a skill every day... Welp, it's just the new actions every day that helped him.
[Mana Reinforcement] wasted 10 MP every 10 minutes as the bow needs to be nourished by mana after every time, otherwise... the effects vanish!
which was one of the reasons the mana potions were sucked clean.
With all of that hunting, Stone finally returned to the Guild, Of course, he didn't forget the Tall Grass.
When he was resting between hunting rounds he got a good amount, His backpacks were full, as well as his 'Shadow' bag.
Once he made it there, He immediately headed towards the reception.
This time surprisingly, there was another receptionist.
It was a tall noble-looking very handsome young man, Blond hair and Blue eyes, a charming smile, and a perfectly shaped body.
A good number of the female receptionists threw a few glances at him from time to time.
"Hello, sir! How may I help you?" With his smile, he analyzed Stone thoroughly.
'Never would I have expected to meet someone even more handsome than me in this small village.'
"I would like to complete my quests, And get my rewards please!" With a slight smile, Stone said.
He didn't like people analyzing him, But this guy was next level.
He had a bad feeling towards him, He needs to evade him as much as possible!
"Please show me the bodies!"
"Mhm!" Stone then proceeded into taking out the huge backpacks.
"Alright, you don't have to take them out!" Surprisingly without Stone even taking out a single beast body, the receptionist told him to stop.
'I gotta be cautious, Very cautious!' With a hidden determined look on his face, Stone took his precautions.
Maybe this guy will try and kill him after he got out of the guild. you don't know!
Stone was always the Overthinker type of guy and a smart one at that.
<The Quest [Collect 1 kg of the Long Grass] has been Completed x5!>
<The Quest [Hunt 5 Level 1 Swift Foxes] has been Completed x7!>
<The Quest [Hunt 5 Level 1 Black Plain Predators] has been Completed x4!>
<The following rewards have been gained:
975 F.C, Reputation +175 and Fame +140, Exp +325>
<You have reached the required amount of Exp, Would you like to level up?>
<Yes>/|\<No>
'Not right now! Not in front of this guy!' With a fake smile on his face, Stone then moved towards Old Kretoss.
'Interesting little guy! Guess I will choose him too... Vanderion, You know what to do!' A faint Shadow dashed out from behind the grinning receptionist.
Stone who was using Shadow's vision from the bag saw the grin on his face and further increased his vigilance.
'Yup, this guy is up to no good!' Although he didn't see the Shadow as it was too fast for his undeveloped senses, He still kept his guard.
After that, he sold the beast bodies, Which came out for 1700 F.C.
As for the Grass, he already got his pay from the Quest Rewards, After all, he had to collect 1kg of Grass for the Quest.
But for the beasts, he was rewarded to hunt them.
Stone returned back to the Inn, And then he made his way towards his room.
'Level Up!'
<Requested Accepted! Leveling Up...>
A golden light flashed out from Stone's eyes, and then it came out of his whole body, beaming like a kind of aura.
20 seconds later, the light finally faded out.
'Open Status!'
<Request Accepted!>

[~--------------------------------]
'Now now! I have to think about status points distribution... As for Skill Points, I will figure it out later.'
'Agility is quite important for me, I have to be able to retreat when the time comes, and so is Focus, mana will be as important as water for me later on.'
'Strength comes after as I need to strengthen my body to fight against those beasts with high endurance...'
'Vitality and endurance may be important, But I can use armors to seal that weakness.'
After thinking for about 3 minutes, Stone finally came to a conclusion.
'Mhm, So... I'll go with 3 points on both agility and focus... 2 on strength, and the rest will go to endurance and vitality.'
with that in mind Stone proceeded in doing what he just said.
It was a good plan no matter how he thought about it.
In any case, he got the Mantra to cover for any miscalculation.
Although leveling up recover your status, Stone was still mentally and spiritually so he just 'laid on his bed' and slept.
------End------
So... I'm sorry but this will be it for today, I started writing late, I'll try and make for it some day...
