It has been roughly two weeks since our last trip to the Duchy of Snowfall, and since then that many little things have been happening in our town, we have constructed more houses, we have cooked many tasty meals, and we have been dismantling more and more of the old houses filled with moss and dead wood, and have been using it for the fire or to feed our big rats, which are still our great source of protein.
Aside from that, the project greenhouse has already started and the trio of dwarves are just amazing when working, Baldur and Balladur are incredible at commanding other people, the goblins have been working diligently below their command and even Darfu was delegated as their assistant as they took over the entire project and made many improvements that Darfu never noticed.
These two weeks they had been working moderately every day, around five hours per day, because the rest of the day it gets way too cold and I don’t want someone to have frozen fingers later, also I am not an abusive ruler, I want my people to have their own free time to enjoy their days with their families. The greenhouse has been constructed quite a lot though, more than half of the building is already done and it will continue every day, perhaps in another week it should be done-
A large polar bear, crossing the three meters of height roared angrily at me, enhancing his left claw with mana and freezing energies, it attempted to slash me in half all while freezing me, the lethal form of fighting that these monsters had in these cold and frozen lands.
The powerful slash unlashed a wave of freezing magic energy that impacted the ground, generating a big ice spike that almost pierced through me! Actually, it did! But it just did little to no damage to my ghostly body.
I quickly conjured my shadow threads, as I formed threads made of darkness and quickly began to wrap the entire three-meter-tall polar bear with them, until it got tightly wrapped up! It tried to attack me with a ice breath attack, but I blocked it by closing his own mouth.
“You’re mine now… Your delicious meat is mine now, and your fluffy pelt as well! And your bones, and everything!” Laughed Partner, as she jumped over the bear and sat over its head.
“Well I did most of the work so its mine, actually I did all of the work.” I said.
“I am just roleplaying!” She said. “D-Did I sound scary and sexy like real vampires?”
“What? Well, I think? A bit.” I said. “More cute than anything.”
“Geez…!” Partner began to pout, as she used her bony claws that extended from her fingers to pierce the bear’s neck and quickly killed it
And like that, our kill of the day was done!
[You defeated the [Frost Bear King: Lv16 (C+ Rank)]!]
[You gained 1600 EXP]
[Level: [34/60] [EXP: 73600/180000]
[Enough Skill Proficiency has been accumulated]
[You learned the [Shadow Thread: Lv1] Skill!]
[You gained the [Apprentice Thread User: Lv1] Title Skill]
Ahhh, I gained tow new Skills! It has been truly a long time since I got anything! I have been saving up “Bonus Points” as I call these points that I accumulate by sacrificing a bit of EXP and Skill Proficiency, but I cannot really decide what to buy. However, learning skills naturally is always the best way anyways! Nothing like a freebie.
But I have been slowly getting the EXP though, even when I deactivated the bonus points from accumulating through a small part of my EXP being transferred there, the amount I am earning is very low, these monsters really won’t do it, especially because they’re so rare, I have barely hunted two bears through these two weeks, it is mostly killing rats to eat, which only give me like 50 EXP… Yeah, that’s way too little for someone big like me. I have been longing for going into a dungeon and finding a lot of monsters to blast and get EXP and relive my early days of “life” as a ghost where I went to Lucifer’s dungeon and constantly earned EXP, that was pretty awesome…
Well, time to check my Status, it has been really a while…
