Chapter 14: A First Quest (6)
Chapter 14: A First Quest (6)
Jake collapsed onto the ground, breathing heavily.
He had been running around and exercising so much that he no longer had any strength to stand still. His fingers hurt him the most, as he had been releasing arrows a lot and even flipped and rolled, using them to get a better foothold or lift himself back to his archery forms.
The satisfaction of killing the boss still swelled his heart, making him broadly smile. He couldn't close his eyes or drop unconscious because of this thrill coursing through him.
It just felt so good.
No other words could have described Jake's feelings at that moment.
A few minutes later, he got to his feet. His stamina has regenerated a little, so he could move around and even take a wooden shovel from his inventory to dig out the steel ax in this area.
Having enough clues about the location of his quest's objective, Jake craned his head and found the vast bed formed from leaves at the end of the arena, which wasn't difficult.
He walked toward it with steady and slow steps, then jumped in.
It was warm but also smelly inside. The smell of raw meat and wilderness was no longer foreign to Jake, so he didn't get any retching reaction and focused on his goal.
He dropped his shovel in the middle of the boss' throne and started burrowing. His sore arms and numb fingers were the only obstacles in his endeavor.
But Jake held on and stubbornly threw piles of dirt to the side, dedicated to finishing this quest today.
At last, he struck something tough. Goosebumps went through his forearms after noticing that slice of clean and sheen steel peeking below him. He sped up and soon grasped the handle of the steel ax—his main prize!
[Steel Ax(Rare)(Attack Damage 41~~71)(Durability(500/500)—a rare treasure rarely found in the tutorial island! This Steel Ax is not only strong enough to severely damage any opponent and cut through the toughest hides of the monsters of the tutorial island, but is also excessively sharp to cut trees of the tutorial forest.]
"Whoa, it's really a treasure!" Jake exclaimed. Though he would rarely use it against monsters, Jake was mainly pleased about the ax being convenient against the trees of the tutorial forest.
Otherwise, players with thief classes would be the first to notice and steal the drop.
Jake jumped up and caught a glimpse of the item atop the boss' corpse. He quickly crested the carcass and reached for it, cradling a small tooth in his hand.
Because his palms were bloody, the item drowned in his blood and activated on its own.
[You have made a one-sided pact with the Call Of The Wolf Boss.]
[You have become the master of the white wolf.]
When Jake unfolded his palm, the item was gone. He didn't even know where it had gone, but the previous system messages hadn't gone unnoticed, either.
Jake opened the game system and looked at the newest skill.
He activated it by pressing the button, imagining a huge wolf similar to the boss appearing before him.
[You have used the Call Of The Wolf Boss.]
[You have summoned the white wolf for five minutes!]
A blinding ball of white light flashed in front of Jake, only to disperse into a small, little creature. It was a wolf puppy that looked no different from a small dog.
Woof! The white wolf howled adorably.
Jake smiled, "Oh, hello."
Woof! Hello Master, the puppy replied, his tail waggling.
