The next day I do my usual morning training, and then go out hunting. GobiGora though was unable to come with me, although he insisted on helping, I told him (rather strictly) that he first has to recover from his injury before he could join me during hunting. After all hunting with an injury makes you .

Now that I think about it, if I ever get injured and I am unable to hunt - I could die. I need to be careful. I wonder if I can learn a healing spell, it would be really useful.

I hunt, 12 dead rabbits later and I decide to stop. I eat 3 of the rabbits myself and give 2 to GobiGora, the rest I will save for later. It seems that he doesn't ordinarily eat rabbits, he said it is too hard for him to hunt one, he normally eat frogs, mushrooms, and small lizards. I need to teach him how to hunt a rabbit later.

After eating I choose to return to the area where I saved GobiGora. I'm not sure why but maybe the humans left something I could use.

After a brief journey, I arrive at the area, I scan the area scouting for anything unusual. I find it, traces of blood, it must be from the brat. I follow the trail and not too far ahead what I see are dead bodies...

8 wolves, and the 4 humans from yesterday. Looks like the wolves caught the smell of their blood and hunted them but were killed instead. Due to their action unlike the wolves from earth, these wolves are far more aggressive and foolhardy most importantly willing to attack humans (and probably goblins as well) – the wolves were a serious threat. Disregarding checking the first 3 humans as judging by their wounds died coz of the wolves. However, the male human injuries aren’t fatal but looking at his swollen face, he must have died by the stings of the bees... Those bees are dangerous, need to keep that in mind. He really was a tough guy killing these wolves are no easy task. Wait that could have been us lying dead... Thinking about it those wolves could have tracked us instead... Well, I need to as much luck as possible thinking how weak I am right now.

I close my eyes for a moment and apologize to the deceased. I used to be a human after all.

"I am sorry but, I will do everything that I need to be done to survive"

After that, I looted the bodies.

Most of the armor are all worn out by the wolves attack, but the weapons and the shield are all in good condition... and something else, a book!

I can't really read it... As I open the book and begin to read the first page my hands start to glow and then...

level 15 requirement meets, Do you want to learn Taming skill? Doing this will consume the book.

Yes    No

....I pause for a sec.

Then choose yes...

Taming level 1 - 1% chance of taming a beast/creature that is weaker than you, chances of taming increase if the target is unconscious. Tamed limit 1

Wow, this is great, the chances are rather low but this will boost my chances of survival! Looks like this is the reason why the human kid was trying to level up so quickly.

Next...

I skin the wolves using the short sword. Before I couldn't skin any animals due to lack of sharp tools. Later I will turn these hides into leathers and then craft armor and clothes. I have been naked for quite a while now, not that I care much but the extra protection is a necessity in this world. Collecting this amount of hides should be enough for at least 4 -7 goblins. The meat smells bad though, but as a goblin, my stomach should be able to handle rotten meats, though I would rather hunt rabbits than eat this, it’s not too appetizing for me, and I’m not struggling with food so I'm leaving it. After that, I went back to my cave carrying a whole bunch of stuff with me...

Damn, this is heavy... (I complained)...

Arriving at the cave GobiGora greeted me with a shock expression plastered on his face...

"Boss!" (GobiGora)

Oh yah, I forgot to mention he started calling me boss...

"Boss that’s a lot of stuff! Where did you get all of that?"(GobiGora)

I explain it to him.

"Wow so lucky, boss!"(GobiGora)

"I know, heh? Are you hungry? Let’s eat now, here have some rabbit meat." (GobiLeo)

"Okay boss thank so much" says (Gora) while he stuffs the rabbit meat in his mouth

Hehehe eat as much as you can for now, later once you recover I will do lots of experiments with you and see how I can boost your potential bahahahaha!

After eating we went to sleep.

The next morning I did the usual training, then I start processing the rawhides.

First I clean it removing the excess meat that is still attached to the skin then I start tanning it under the sun.

Then I went out hunting.

Nothing much really happened aside from trying to tame some spiked rabbit. 1% chance is really low, it always failed and after trying it a few times I was exhausted, so it does consume stamina... I'll try again next time.  After that I return to the cave.

I'm tired, I finish eating and go to sleep right away.

End of chapter.
