Chapter 111 - What for?

"Pengu, stand on its side!"

With no idea how far should I go with sucking its energy, I need something to judge the right timing of my actions. With Pengu acting like a scale of this spiece proper evolved size, there is only a small chance I will make some sort of blunder!

I guess my lil bro is even smarter than I thought it was! Without any hint of hesitation, it almost teleported to the side of its brethren! I guess it was even more interested in keeping this whole procedure as stable as possible!

With a way to judge my actions, I slightly sped up the suction for a moment, only to cease it all together just a few seconds later! Actually, using Pengu's help was unnecessary as I felt some kind of blockade when it reached the size of my little friend. Taking my hand out of its weirdly pleasant embrace of tightened skin, I took a look at the notification only to stutter on the spot!

"Amount of energy absorbed: 2441"

What the fucking hell! That's actually more points that I used so to raise my stats, unlock tools or evolve abilities so far! How could I remain calm after seeing those numbers? It's like after winning a lottery and moving to a rich area, you win the lottery again, putting you at the top of your entire city just a day after you changed from being a beggar on its streets!

With this information suddenly overwhelming me, I can't help but ask the Bonger.

Is there a way to exchange attribute points for levels?

"Blop!"

"Conversion of attribute points to experience points is impossible!"

Ugh, I could've expected that. While I have some ideas about how this system might operate and where does my strengthening come from, it's not like I have any concrete information or proof!

But my job isn't over here yet! Taking a look into my storage ring, I take the bag of the internals of the animals that I hunted and that used to serve as Eve's bed. Not paying any mind to dirty the area, I simply cut the fur with my sword and let the disgusting mass flow out.

"That's it from me, I will go to prepare some sleeping place for us now. When I will be done, would you mind showing us to some water source? Considering that I'm with woman, I guess she would love to clean herself after all the troubles we had today!"

As always, I only got a nod performed by lowering its beak in response. Well, since it can't really speak, it's nice that it can at least try to communicate with us somehow. Without this cute friend of mine, who knows how would our adventures in the forest end?

As there was nothing else for me to do in this place, for now, I swiftly returned to where I left Eve before. Who could've known that upon arriving I would almost trip from what I saw!

Yes, I admit that I asked her to gather some suitable wood and other materials, but her eagerness to fulfil my wishes was way too much!

Instead of seeing a handful of long young trees, some straw and some stones, there were three equally big piles of those materials!

I didn't want to build a damn log cabin, but a simple mud hut for us to get through the night in as much comfort as possible!

"You really didn't need to go so far…"

Hearing steps behind me, I turn around only to get stunned yet again. While I expected to see some perspiration on her forehead since she managed to do so much in a rather short amount of time, I would never have guessed that she would actually strip all the way down to her undergarments!

With small beads of sweat falling down her delicate lines, I couldn't help but stare at her harmoniously shaped body. Starting with her delicately protruding collarbone, turning into a pride of every female that was currently covered in a single layer of thin cloth and all the way to her slim waist, there wasn't a single thing that could be considered as a flaw! Just to keep my senses straight, I didn't dare to look even further down!

"Hmm? Well, you didn't say how much do you need so I just gathered as much as I could in the given time."

Shrugging her arms as if oblivious to why I'm acting in this way, she dropped another bout of straw on the pile before turning back to me with a puzzlement written all over her face.

"Would you mind telling me, what are you going to do with those?"

Well, I can't say that I'm fully confident in my abilities to turn those raw materials into something usable, but I still have an ace in my sleeve! Back on earth, I was one of those who allowed the flow of mute, barehanded mudhouse building to waste more and more of our time!

Watching some asjans with bare torsos going around the undeveloped areas, gathering materials, making tools and using them to create elaborate structures… It was their fault that I turned more and more interested in the topic to a degree when I actually studied most of the YourTubbus channels about this topic!

And now finally came the time for me to test my knowledge in practice!
