The stag was incredibly fast, he rolled to the side and it went past him, wind following in it wake. It hit a tree thicker than a grown man and sent it flying high in the air.
It turned around and charged at him again. He ran, it was much faster than him, before long it was about to catch up when he ran up a tree and did a flip above it.
He watched as it passed below him sending yet another tree flying. He landed behind it but before he could adjust himself it kicked him in the chest.
He felt the air leave his lungs as he was sent flying. He broke multiple trees before coming to a stop over 60 metres away. He touched the place it kicked in his chest and a hoof mark was there.
However the demage was not as high as he had expected, the caved in chest area felt like dried wood to the touch. I see, the tree hide boar bloodline increases my defence as well as strength.
He stood up with a smile, he had noticed something during this short exchange. This thing was stronger and faster than Tiger but because it is larger he can track and could react to it.
That means reacting to Tigers speed was not impossible if he can just see him. As long as he absorbs the bloodline of a creature with high senses he could hold his own against Tiger and he knew exactly which bloodline he needs.
However he still needs to deal with this one. The stag pawed, the blood essence in it body became active and flowed to it antlers and it diamond crystal antlers grew and became wider. It charged at him covering the entire space infront of like a wall of crystals.
He couldn't dodge to the side or jump above it, the antlers were now 20 metres wide and it was impossible for him to dodge something that large moving at that speed.
Instead he decided to use the stags height against it, he crawled through the tiny space between the antlers and the ground. In an instant he rose to his knees and slashed it front joint.
Then spun on his knees and slashed the joint on the back leg with his other dagger. The daggers made from the tusks of an earth grade rank 1 beast easily cut through the bones of the stag.
It cried in fury and agony as it fell on it side, it antlers back to normal by now, it seems keeping them at that size takes a lot of blood essence.
He approached the stag already assured of his victory, his chest felt like it was on fire. That was a good kick bitch, now you going to pay for it, he said as he approached it neck.
Just as he was about to stab it a small pointy part of the antlers grew like a spear and stabbed him in the stomach, before he could react another went for his neck.
He panicked and stabbed it in neck before grasping his bleeding neck trying to stop the bleeding. He grasped for air as he felt his thought slow down.
Shit, is this how I die? Fuck, I had already won, how did this happen? ( Answer, host became too confident in his power) Ahh so arrogance is what going to kill me? That sucks.
He said as his voice was getting lower and his eyes were shutting down by themselves, he felt tired. I'm just going to rest for a while, then he closed his eyes.
( Does host wish to use blood point to regenerate body?) Yeah, sure, he answered without even hearing what the system said then his mind went blank and he fainted.
When he woke up the sun was about to set. What happened? He asked with a groan, his body was still in pain and so was his head, it felt like it was splitting apart.
There was no answer, the system kept quiet. He looked around and noticed the stag lying there dead, his dagger still imbedded in it neck.
With how sore his body was he was wondering how he was going to drag this thing home. He pulled his dagger from it and cut it stomach open.
He pulled the blood core from it and then cut open it head, however he did not find the golden essence blood there. He pulled it heart and cut it open and still no golden essence blood.
Ahh, system where is the essence blood? ( Answer, essence blood dissipated into the atmosphere) Why!? ( Host waited too long, essence blood cannot exist for long after death unless preserved through special means) nonono, that makes no sense.
None of the essence blood dissipated before ( that because system was preserving it) so why didn't you do it this time? ( This time system had to focus on keeping host alive)
Ohhh I see,well thank you, he said with a dejected voice, there was no response. Well I can't be wasting food, sore and tired as he was he tried to drag the huge stag by it antlers.
He was moving slowly through the forest, the smell of blood lingering in the air wherever he passed, he knew this was not good and as he feared.
A pack of large wolves circled around him, they looked hungry, their mouths salivating. The wolves were around the same height as a grown adult which isn't as large as most four legged beasts he had seen actually.
However although they felt weak individually, there were two many of them and he was wounded, which was strange because he thought the system healed him.
System, I thought you regenerated my body, why am I still wounded? ( Host did not have enough blood points for a full regeneration, all the system could do is keep you alive)
He grimaced, shit I can't fight all of them like this, he looked at the stag behind him and frowned, he really did not want let go of his food.
That part of him from the town of ashes, the young scrawny and hungry kid screamed at the idea of wasting food but he knew he had no choise here.
He valued his life more than any food.
