Chapter 6: Goblin Hunt!
Leon lay hidden behind a bush next to a tall tree. He was surprised that these Goblins didn't have fantastic hearing and smell. Perhaps they would develop these as they grew strong.
"Their stats aren't that good compared to my summons, this shouldn't be a problem." For insurance, Leon picked up and rock and tossed it toward a bush across the way.
"Gigigi!" This instantly alerted the Goblins and the supposed leader ordered a Goblin to check. He commanded the wounded one to check since he was practically useless at this point.
Right as the Goblin went to check the White Knight darted toward the two unsuspecting Goblins.
"Gigiu"
The Goblin Basher turned but it was too late, and with a flash of killing light his head rolled off his shoulders. The White Knight's movements were so fast that Leon couldn't process them.
The Goblin was no different, as it died before it could react.
"Gigigigg!" The regular Goblin turned in horror, but his yells were accommodated with a quick stab in the head.
The injured Goblin soon followed and was defeated.
"Dang! That was easier than the Hounds?" Leon was speechless.
Leon checked his status and saw that he was still at level 1. He didn't leave his hiding position and thought to himself.
He had his crow look for more targets. The crow ventured deeper into the forest while one of the White Knights brought the Horned Rabbit over.
Leon checked the Horned Rabbit, it seemed to have been smashed. Its internal organs were hanging out while its head was crushed.
"The meat is still good, so I should be able to eat it later." Leon rubbed his chin before ordering his Knights to bring the Goblins over.
He had his [Observation] skill so it could give detail on anything object or being he gazed at.
"Yikes!" The Goblins were brought over and the smell from these Goblins was foul with rot.
He placed the Goblins in his Storage Pouch, perhaps they were worth something. Leon pulled out a bottle of water, this place had some heat to it. On top of that, Leon wasn't exactly in shape to deal with his situation.
"This forest looks fairly decent, but it wouldn't be a place I would want to live." Leon wasn't a fan of the jungle, perhaps a forest but not a jungle.
Leon also noticed that he had an increase in points from killing the Goblins. He had gained 40 points from killing those Goblins, which wasn't much.
"How many Goblins will I have to kill to truly make it worthwhile? It's not like they would make the Dungeon super hard, at least not at the start."
Leon thought about it and wanted to hunt more Goblins. Right then, he received a signal from his Scout crow.
"Well, how about that?" Leon immediately left with his Knights.
Once he arrived, he saw a group of Goblins patrolling the area aimlessly. There were five of them, with three being regular [Goblins] and two being [Goblin Bashers].
"The level and skill are the same except one of the regular Goblins is at level 2 this time." Leon wasted no time and had his White Knights attack the group.
The Knight quickly took down two Goblins immediately. The Goblin Bashers attacked with their Clubs but were easily evaded and counter-attacked.
The Goblins didn't have a chance. One of the Goblins tried to run to call for help, but he was cleanly cut down.
"The weaker Goblins are worth 10 points, while the Basher Gobs are worth 20. Now, I have 510 points."
Leon wanted to farm more points, this was his greatest motivation. Now, Leon had his Crow search, while he also searched for Goblin groups.
With his [Search] skill, he managed to find many groups and stragglers. He also spotted a couple of Horned Rabbits.
Leon came across many Goblins groups and took them down. Afterward, he would store them just in case their bodies were worth something.
Checking the detail, he knew that Goblins weren't edible monsters. The Horned Rabbit gave him 2 points per kill.
In the beginning, Horned Rabbits went out of their way to attack him. However, when Leon leveled up, they began to run from him. Leon understood that these Rabbits only fought individuals who were weaker than themselves.
Two hours had passed during his time in the Jungle.
"Where is this [Goblin Caster]? Is this guy hiding or something?" Leon had already reached level 3, and yet he hadn't found the location of the Goblin Caster.
"I already have 1,510 points. I've killed many Goblins already." Leon even participated in the killing.
Usually, Leon would use the move [Quick Burst] to sneak attack a Goblin before retreating. Leon once again invested in his Defense and Vitality, boosting them by 5 attributes each.
Leon continued to hunt but as time went on the Goblins around began to dwindle. He resorted to hunting for Horned Rabbits instead.
Horned Rabbits had good hearing, so Leon couldn't get too close. The only reason Goblins could catch Horned Rabbits was because of their skill [Sneak].
Leon had his Knights use their Swords like javelins to harpoon the Rabbits from afar. He managed to catch 7 Horned Rabbits with this method.
"Oh, it's a river." Leon found that his Scout crow had discovered a river.
"I'll visit this river some other time. I should head back to the safe zone before checking the jungle tomorrow."
Leon was tired from doing all of this walking and other reasons. He wished he had something to ride on to help him get around. However, when Leon thought about it, this was a great form of exercise for him.
"Speaking of exercise, I should probably do that when I get back to the safe zone," Leon ordered his Scout crow to continue searching around the jungle overnight.
Both knights followed behind Leon as he returned to the safe zone.
"At this rate, I'll surely lose weight." Leon was walking so much. He must have burned 4 to 6 pounds from that alone. On top of that, his speed stat had increased by 0.03 from all the walking.
The first thing Leon did was walk into his cabin. Both knights stood outside for the time being.
"What? There's a modern kitchen, bathroom, and bed." Everything he needed was here for him.
"I thought I would be sleeping outside, so I even purchased a tent for camping." Leon thought it would be a harsh trial to this degree, but it wasn't.
"I guess the focus is on combat and survival against these monster bosses." Leon checked the cabin out thoroughly before pulling out a Horn Rabbit.
Leon used his points back then to buy, Pots (x5), Pans (x5), Lighters (x3), Bottles Of Oil (x5), Bags Of Coal (x3), a Large Tent (x1), Large Bags Of Salt (x5), Large Bags Of Sugar (x5), Large Bags Of Pepper (x5), Large Bags Of Paprika, Cases of water (x12), and Large Bags Flour (x5)
"Hmm, I should have gotten more spices, but it's too late to complain now." Leon began to dismantle the Horned Rabbit.

He removed the horn and set it aside. The bodies of these Horned Rabbits were in a mess from the attacks done to kill them.
"I may have to copy that skill [Sneak] from one of the Goblins. It could come in handy for sneaking things and people."
Leon dismantled two Horned Rabbits as best as he could. Their bodies were torn apart from the Javelin strikes done by the Knights.
Rinsing the meat, Leon mixed the pepper, salt, paprika, and flour.
"Oh, boy, it's time for some fried Horned Rabbit!" Leon fried the cut-up pieces of meat in a pan with some oil and waited.
Leon pulled out some canned greens beans and peas. He warmed them up with the microwave. Surprisingly, there was a microwave in this cabin with electricity.
"I wish I had bought some vegetables with this, but oh well." Leon sat down at the table and greedily ate the fried Horn Rabbit.
"Oh, my goodness! This is at least 2x better than regular rabbit meat! How could it be so good?"
Leon was almost in tears, it was just too good! At least he knew that he'd be eating well while he was here.
After eating and drinking ice-cold water, Leon got up and went to his bedroom in the back.
"I am sleepy, it's time for me to rest." It had been nighttime in his world before he was transferred here.
One could imagine how tired he would be—especially due to his experiences so far. Leon was still wearing his clothes from before.
"I should probably bathe, but I don't have any clothes or underwear." Leon was big on hygiene but he couldn't get a clean set of clothes.
"Ah, that's right. That little shop should be selling many different things." Leon smiled and left outside for the shop close by.
Leon arrived in front of the small shop and walked inside. The bell chimed the second he came through the door.
"Oh, you finally came to visit me." An energetic voice rang through Leon's ears.
