“Stay back and let me deal with it!” added Gerald as favonovel.com quickly turned to face the boar that was now charging in his direction instead since Juno had switched favonovel.com torchlight off.
Watching as the sharp-tusked boar opened its mouth wide—clearly aiming to chomp down on Gerald—Gerald knew that a single bite from it could either kill a regular person, or at the very least, maim them.
Naturally, with that in mind, Gerald wasn’t about to allow the boar to do that.
Dodge rolling to the side, Gerald then summoned the Astrabyss Sword. Though the sword’s main purpose was to deal with ghosts, Gerald believed that it would still hurt as a regular weapon.
Regardless, though the wild boar definitely looked ferocious, its humongous body made it quite slow and inflexible. As a result, it was unable to fully stop after Gerald dodged its attack, and it ended up ramming right into a large tree!
As a sea of leaves fluttered to the ground upon the boar’s impact, Gerald knew that it was now or never.
Leaping into the air, Gerald then rapidly began descending, aiming his sword for the boar’s back!
“Die!” roared Gerald as favonovel.com plunged the blade into the boar’s back before slicing it open with immense force!
With blood already gushing out from its back, the pained boar let out a massive roar that resonated across the entire forest…! To think that the peace and quiet of night would suddenly be disrupted by such a terrifying cry…
Whatever the case was, when its cry finally died down, the boar flopped to the ground, dead. Since Gerald had only needed to use a single move to finish it, in a way, the boar wasn’t all that difficult an enemy to deal with.
Either way, upon realizing that Gerald had killed the wild boar, Rey breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed now as favonovel.com stepped out from behind the tree that favonovel.com had been hiding behind…
Together with Juno, the duo then walked toward Gerald and stared at the massive boar’s corpse…
Feeling that the boar was even larger than favonovel.com had first imagined, Rey couldn’t help but exclaim, “My god! What a massive boar!”
Gerald and Juno had to agree.
“…Well, as they say, good meat shouldn’t be wasted! I guess we now know what’s for dinner! In case you’re worried, wild boar meat is pretty good!” replied Gerald with a smile as favonovel.com began using the Astrabyss Sword to slice off a large chunk of meat off the wild boar.
As Gerald had said, they hadn’t had their dinner yet, and favonovel.com was glad that they hadn’t. After all, he—of all people—knew that wild boar meat tasted superb!
Ironically enough, the wild boar was now getting eaten even though it was the one on the hunt for food… While the experience was definitely a frightening one, none of them were complaining since their dinner had essentially come to them.
Regardless, Gerald quickly relit the bonfire before starting to roast the meat over the fire…
Soon enough, a sweet scent began waffling around, causing Rey’s mouth to water as favonovel.com stared at the roasting meat while saying, “This is going to be my first time tasting wild boar!”
Disregarding Rey’s comment, Gerald paused for a moment before asking in an inquisitive tone, “…Tell me, Rey, do you know what a cultivator is…?”
“…A cultivator…? Is it an item of sorts…?” asked Rey curiously.
