“Hey Look It’s the guy who died to a horned rabbit!”
“Ha Ha poor guy”
“He must be really new Ha Ha”
“Watch out there’s a horned rabbit behind you! Ha Ha!”
“…”
After dying Kai resurrected back in town and rushed back to where the horned rabbits spawned wanting revenge from the defeat, but as soon got there laughter and ridicule could be heard all around him. Apparently everyone saw the scene of him fighting then dying miserably, it was hilarious.
“…”
All Kai could do was say nothing but ignore the laughter and ridicule.
After a few moments of walking around Kai finally found another area where horned rabbits spawned, with no players around to ridicule him.
*Sigh* Kai sighed like an old man and sat down leaning on a tree “These rabbits are so fast how they kill them so easily…”
When Kai was walking away from the players he saw other players kill horned rabbits with ease! Everyone’s movements and attacks were so fluid, almost like they have trained in real combat before.
There was this one player who really surprised Kai, a horned rabbit suddenly attacked the player like what happened to Kai, but this player didn’t get hit! As soon as the horn was about to stab him the player blocked the attack with his dagger in a matter of seconds! Then he pushed the horned rabbit back with his dagger. The player then waited for the horned rabbit to attack. Right away when the horned rabbit attacked the player dashed straight and slashed the horned rabbit in mid-air causing the horned rabbit to fall down from the attack. Not waiting for the horned rabbit to recover the player dashed straight at the horned rabbit again and stabbed it multiple times until it was dead.
“What kind of game is this… I wonder how tough the higher level monsters are…” Kai said to himself as he gazed at the deadly horned creatures
After a few moments looking at the clear blue sky while thinking, Kai slowly stood up and yelled at the sky.
“There’s no use crying about it now, it’s too late to sell the gaming helmet with my ID on it anyways, and I won’t give up just yet!”
Kai didn’t want to give up; he thought about Mika, and their horrible lifestyle. If he gave up just because of a stupid rabbit he’ll forever live his life with no hope.
‘Okay, attack fast and carefully don’t attract other rabbits…’
Kai after seeing other players battle just one rabbit he realizes that if you go near a monster they get aggroed and will attack you so instead of rushing head on Kai slowly approached a horned rabbit at the corner of the field all by himself.
‘Okay… attack him then wait.’ Kai said to himself nervously
Kai slowly approached a horned rabbit that was nibbling on some green grass
“Aya!”
*SLASH!*
Kai a few meters away from the horned rabbit not getting notice yet ran straight at it and slashed the rabbit with his dagger with all his might
-4 HP!
“Ha Ha! I did it!”
The horned rabbit after being surprised attacked was enraged its eyes began to glow red, and quickly got back up getting ready to attack
“Oh shit…”
Kai quickly put up his attack stance like he seen a player did before and waited to counter attack.
The horned rabbit pounced right at Kai aiming for his Stomach. Kai tried to counter attack with the same move he saw a player did earlier today, but he failed. The horned rabbit ended up stabbing him right in stomach.
-4 HP
“Well that was a bad idea…” Kai quickly got up getting ready for the next attack
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
The horned rabbit once again pounced on Kai. Kai instead of trying to counter attack he decided to dodge by moving to the side falling to the ground.
-MISS!
“Aahh!”
Instead of waiting for the rabbit to attack, Kai began to crawl fiercely towards the rabbit. Face to face with the Rabbit Kai drew his arm in an arc motion aiming at the rabbit, but at the same time the rabbit also attacked with its sharp horn.
-5 HP!
-4 HP!
Both attacks landed! The horned rabbit stabbed Kai right at the neck while his attack landed on the horned rabbit side.
Then Kai who was next to the horned rabbit quickly began stabbing the rabbit without giving it a chance to attack again.
-4 HP!
-5 HP!
-5 HP!

*Hawh… Hawh…* “I did it… and wow 25% of my XP bar is filled”
Out of breath Kai fell to the ground with his arms and legs wide open facing towards the clear blue sky.
After a few minutes of resting, Kai stood up and inspected his loot.
“Wow 1 copper…” Kai said while picking up the copper next to the dead rabbit
“Mhmm what do I do with this dead rabbit?”
Kai tried to put the rabbit inside his inventory but the system won’t let him then he discovered he can select the rabbit.
When selecting it showed an action command, selecting the command SKIN Kai began to skin the Rabbit following the red dots on the rabbit skin as a guide the game system provided to help players.
-Gained (Low Quality) Rabbit Fur
“Wow that’s amazing…” Kai was shocked on how easy it was skinning a rabbit for the first time.
After being skinned the body of the horned rabbit began to slowly disappear.
“I think I’m getting the hang of it now.” Kai said grinning while walking back towards a safe spot to rest so he can recover his HP.
After recovering his HP Kai began to attack another horned rabbit once again, picking one that was all alone.
Kai slowly approached it without getting notice then as soon as he was close enough he drew his arm in an arc and attacked the horned rabbit with his dagger
*Whoosh*
-5 HP!
Seeing how the horned rabbit this time was slower to recover it’s stance than the last one Kai quickly slashed the horned
rabbit
-3 HP!
Kai quickly dashed towards where the rabbit landed drawing his arm in an arc motion, but at the same time the horned rabbit had enough time recover and also attack back.
-4 HP!
-5 HP!
Kai and the horned rabbit simultaneously attacked each other! Kai who was now next to the horned rabbit knew this distance was where horned rabbits are the weakest so with a smile Kai quickly stab the horned rabbit while all the horned rabbit could do was stare with its red glowing eyes at the falling dagger.
-4 HP!
-4 HP!
