Chapter 41: Prepared To Fail

Chapter 41 - Prepared To Fail

"Magic Bullet." Theo launched his magic and shot another Leaf Rabbit.

They had been hunting the rabbits for half an hour already and ended up killing more than ten. If he hunted alone, he wouldn't be able to get this much kill, let alone leveling up three times.

His Master was the one locating all these rabbits with her awareness, showing how everything could be easily done with the things that she taught.

*Pant*

*Pant*

Theo was short of breath as his complexion was bad, his eyelids were heavy, and his action became dull.

"Hmm…" His Master, who had been watching his progress from the side, came up to him and asked. "In your state, I think only one or two more Magic Bullets and you are out. Alright, how about we search for the last one?"

"I understand." Theo accepted it even if his brain felt hot as if he was inside the oven. Normally, he would've stopped here and recovered his magic, but for the sake of training his mental endurance, he needed to fight against the enemy in this state.

"That's right. Can you cook?" She asked.

"I've been living alone, so I cook for myself from time to time to lower my food cost every month." Theo nodded. "But it's not that good."

"In that case, I will cook for you." She smiled. "Cooking is essential, you know."

"Why so?"

"In an expedition, you will be staying in this place for a long time. Instead of eating from the food cans, it's better to bring spices and cook them yourself with the ingredients you can find around the area. Besides, do you know that as long as you don't touch the dead monster, we can extract everything from it?" She smiled.

"Eh?" Theo widened his eyes.

"That's right. This is the biggest advantage of a party." She smiled. "For example, if you touch the dead rabbit, it will disappear and drop a card, right?"

"Yes."

"But if I am the one touching it, it won't disappear, right?"

"Yes."

"Then, I can dismantle everything and get their fur, meat and blood. Did the school not teach you? Or maybe you will receive this lesson in your second year since the first year is not required to go to this world yet?"

"I think it's the latter."

"Anyway, that's how it is. You can get meat and more materials from every single monster. Hence, this is the reason why people often come out with carts or trucks. They need something to transport those materials."

"I see. I have never thought of it." Theo narrowed his eyes and looked down, thinking, 'I wonder if my clone does it, will it be the same? I need to check it after this.'

"Well, there are many rare monsters out there, you know. Instead of making them disappear and getting the card, it's better to dissect it, no? This way, we will get more materials in an auction. Of course, this is the case if you don't care about the potential of a skill dropped from the monster."

"But that's only possible for a limited number of monsters, right?"

"Yes. In an expedition, you will need to kill thousands of monsters before getting what you want. And there is no way to transport all of them, so you turn most of them to cards." She then turned around and pointed forward. "Go there, boy. There is a rabbit. We can talk more later."

"Understood." Theo nodded and leaped to the front.

"I want to give you a challenge for this one. Before using your Magic Bullet, you need to split it into two, okay?"

Although he didn't understand her reasoning, he still acknowledged her order and ran forward while scanning the area to find the exact location of the rabbit.

He summoned his clone and handed the spear to him while pulling his sword. With this, he only had one Magic Bullet's worth of magic power left, and there was that challenge.

Suddenly, a rabbit leaped toward his clone from behind the bush.

Thrusting his spear, Clone Theo intended to bait it again for another jump to the air. Theo, on the other hand, summoned his Magic Bullet and tried to separate it into two.

"Eh?" It was at this time he suddenly realized. He looked at his Magic Bullet that somehow became two in an instant. Although it was unstable, he indeed had succeeded in splitting the Magic Bullet into two. But still… "Ugh. It will explode in my hand before the rabbit enters my field of vision. Shoot it? That's not a question."

The shock from the exploding Magic Bullet was a bit too much to handle in his current state, so he decided to release it.

The Magic Bullet pierced the clone's body and shoulder but ended up missing the rabbit.

On the side, his master clicked her tongue.

"Ugh. He should spread it more, but I guess this is what the kid can do right now, much less in his exhausted state." She shook her head helplessly before smiling. "He has shown me something good anyway, so I will show my cooking skill this—"

Before she finished, she stopped and realized why Theo used a sword instead of a spear. "He is expecting him to fail… No, he is prepared to fail this whole time, so even if he fails, he can still kill the rabbit."

Because of the hole in the clone's stomach, Theo could see the rabbit and swung his sword, slashing the clone's head along with the rabbit, but…

"Kh!" Theo clenched his teeth as his feet trembled because his magic power was empty, and he ended up missing the rabbit. But it didn't end there.

Theo himself knew what kind of drawback he would experience as soon as he used up all his magic power, so he grabbed that spear that the clone dropped after disappearing.

"That kid…" The old lady's lips curved as her heart was filled with excitement. She muttered, "He knew he couldn't hit the rabbit and used that swing to throw the rabbit's balance off. Everything was just for the last hit with the spear?! I was trying to push him to the limit and helped him, but this… far surpassed my expectation!"

Just like what she said, the rabbit couldn't even move its body properly because Theo forced it to move its body to avoid his slash. And with the longer reach from the spear, he could reach the rabbit even if he didn't stand up.

"Qiu." The rabbit wailed as its blood flowed on the spear, dying.

Theo, on the other hand, dropped to the ground while panting. He stared back at his master. "Huft…Huft… I've done it, Master."

"!!!" She grabbed Theo with one hand and the rabbit with the other hand and laughed. "Haha, you did great, boy. I will give you something delicious as your reward."
