Before them is all the money that Bob has collected over the years of selling his crops to Bara.
“System says it’s 200. There might be something else up there, but I guess this will do.”
“Dude, uncool” She hits Yeeticus’ hands away from the money
“That’s it we’re leaving.” DeSpanishINQ stood up and head straight for the door.
NumbaJuan soon followed him and then Yeeticus who took the money from the table then puts it in his inventory. It surprises Bob as how they just did it nonchalantly. He gave them food and offered them shelter for the night before they travel back.
“Hey, that’s my money.” He blurts out.
They are already outside the house, Yeeticus looks back at him with an annoyed face and glares at him. It startles Bob.
‘Why is he mad at me? He stole my money; I should be the one who’s mad.’ He wanted to say it but his anxiety over powered him. His body is shaking as he stood on his porch but he’s trying to hide it.
The sun hasn’t set yet but it is almost dusk. The animals on the distance are now being gathered by Agta and Atga who has remained hidden after all the time he spent with the adventurers.
After glaring at Bob he looks back to his companions and started swiping the air in front of him, after a short moment he made a big swipe at the air and gave a sigh.
“Beta ends in 4 hours. I’ll just kill him.”
Bob stops for a moment to think. He had just seen what these adventurers could do earlier.
‘Kill me? Why? I gave them food and they stole from me now he wants to kill me?’
His body began to tremble even more. Cold sweat runs through his back as he looks at Yeeticus. He looks down to see if there is anything that he could use to defend against the overhanging danger. The bow was nearby and three arrows were right next to it, his machete is on the other side of the porch dangling from one of the posts, he then slowly walks towards the bow.
Across from him is Yeeticus still glaring at him, he unsheathes his blade and brandishes it to his side. Getting ready to attack, he bends down and stretches his arms. Seeing his stance, Bob hurries to grab the bow and notches it. But before Yeeticus could start, DeSpanishINQ grabs him by the shoulder.

“Stop it. It’ll still take us 6 hours with [Haste] and [Stamina Regen], to go back to the mainland. I still want to explore with the remaining 4 hours.”
Yeeticus sheathes his blades and looks back at them. Immediatey, Bob runs toward the machete and wielded it. Next thing he did is to find his axe which he has left at a stump near the shed. But it was almost right next to them and he didn’t want to get anywhere near the adventurers.
He was so focus on getting equipped to protect himself that he couldn’t hear the entire conversation or argument that’s going on between them. From the distance he saw that the animals are getting closer. He circles from them to avoid being notice as they are pre occupied with amongst themselves. Then he tries to guide the animals in to the barn while keeping a keen eye on them.
From the looks of it theey finally reach an understanding. Yeeticus is not flowing with bloodlust unlike earlier, but still have that disappointed look. He notices that Bob is guiding the animal towards the shed while holding on to his machete and the bow looped over his shoulders. The arrows are by his feet planted to the ground for easier access.
He runs towards him but didn’t attack him. Shouted again and again causing the animals to run from every direction.
“Look at them go!” He laughs as the animals’ scatter.
Bob grips his machete and readies himself in any incoming attacks from Yeeticus who just glance at him and grins.
‘What is wrong with him?!’ Bob thought while trying to find a way to defend himself as well as the animals.
He can fight with just the machete but he thought he could fight more fully if he has the axe. With Yeeticus’ ability of appearing in front of him in an instant, fighting him with a bow would be difficult but it could prove useful if he could create some distance. On the corner of his eyes he could see the other two who seems to just fully given up on stopping him. The animals didn’t go far but they are in disarray. The wolves are nowhere in sight. Leaving Bob frozen on his feet, Yeeticus started chasing the cows and scaring the chickens more. He didn’t hurt physically any of them but it still enough for Bob to almost breakdown.
“P-please, stop. Just go” Bob pleaded.
Falling to deaf ears, Yeeticus did as he pleased and continued to run around, scaring the animals. He stops for a moment then sheathes his blades and grabs one of the chickens. As if in deep thought he stares at it. Bob thought that he might have gotten through to him. Then he smiles and looks back to his companions.
“You know what’s funny?”
“What?” The girl asks from a distance.
“I have done all of this and the NPC is still not hostile.” He laughs
“You haven’t hurt anyone physically, that could be it.” DeSpanishINQ said as they walk closer to him.
“Please put her down.” Bob pleads again.
“Her?” Yeeticus looks at him with a confused face. “You name them?”
He then swipes the air in front of him as if to confirm something.
“Cannot be identified.”
He then shook his head then make a big wipe in the air in front of him. He puts forth his hand and drops the chicken. As it falls, he stretches his right leg back then shouted.
“Yeet!”
