Kip was wake up from his peaceful sleep by a standing meerkat!

He fell asleep last night on one of the tree branch. He was about to stretch his arm when he notices a pair of beady eyes staring at him. “A meerkat?” Cried Kip. His sudden moment causes the creature to release a slight soundwave, similar to the buzz in his head every time a panel pop up. Seeing that nothing happens to Kip, the meerkat lost interest and quickly crawl away. Looking around, he saw similar Meerkat doing something resembled morning stretches.

This might look ridiculous, but seeing that the creatures didn’t attack him. He observes them with curious eyes. Every meerkat looked identrical to one another. They are covered in a lustrous golden colour fur. Their eyes were completely white, and on their head hold two tube like pair of ears. Looking down as the slime den, Kip can see that some slime already started to creep out of the whole, resuming their yesterday activity like a routine, devouring everything on sight.

It was then like a signal, one Meerkat after another rushes to the slime den entrance. Using soundwave, the slime body quickly combust, splashing its inside content everywhere. Kip noticed the meerkat was a bottom feeder animal. They could not hunt larger animal so they relied on the slime to kill it. Then kill the slime and eat the animal corpse inside its body. More slime was being killed by the second. The meerkat was absolutely ruthless, killing every slime that came up from the hole. He felt sorry for the slime, even hoping they would win. It takes a lot of effort to hunt another monster as food, only to lose everything to its natural nemesis. A buzz ring in his head

Tittle Acquired: Slime sympathiser

Your concern over the survival of the slime specie has granted you a title

EFFECT: SLIME WILL NOT ATTACK YOU FIRST, UNLESS YOU PROVOKE THEM

VITALITY +1

Kip almost laugh it out loud. He didn’t think the system would give out something like this. He was contemplating when he heard a loud bang. Surprisingly, once of the meerkat was burn to crisp by something. The appearance of a red slime frightened the meerkats, but didn’t manage to chase them away. Furious that one of their comrade was killed, the meerkat launched an area attack focusing on that one single red slime.

The slime, (Kip decided to call it fire slime), launched another 5 five balls of flame toward its enemy before its combust, leaving behind a small green stone. Kip was very interested on that stone; it was the first real loot like item that he had ever seen. The meerkat seemed to be interest in that stone as well. Three more red slime came crawling out, look like there is still hope for the slime just yet. The situation is completely reversed now, the meerkats all retreated up on nearby branched, hissing and release threatening soundwave at the slime before leaving away.

The three red slime crawled back into their hole and the slime population resumed doing their stuff as if a life threatening attack has never happened. Kip quickly climbed down, and walk slowly toward the slime core. As expected from his title, the slime completely ignores him. Picking up the slime core, he could feel a small energy pulsing from it, he didn’t know what it can be used for; but seeing that it came from such a powerful slime, it must be a good item. Still carrying the slime core in his left hand, “It’s about time I returned” he thought; Raven might be waiting for him.

Getting loot from the cyclops and fire slime on his first day venturing out sure is a blessing; "Things are finally going my way" jokingly said Kip. As soon as the word left his mouth, 6 meerkats seemed to appear out of nowhere now that he has left the slime territory. They were greedily looking at the slime core, HIS SLIMECORE.

"Don't you dare!!!" He warned the Meerkat

Ignoring his words like wind passing, before Kip could even do anything to prepare himself, 6 meerkats simultaneously jumped on top of him, biting and scratching whatever is exposed. They seemed to be avoiding the area that the herb was rubbed on; unfortunately, his face was not covered in it. Kip was flaying his arm around, trying to get the meerkats off, his hand is still holding tight on the slime core, so much that it cut deep into his skin and draw blood. As if on cue, he felt a burning sensation from the slime cored before it disappeared from his hand and into his body. A buzz accompanying panel pop up in front of him

SKILL: Slime summoning

Kip stopped moving since he couldn't feel the core in his hand. Did he absorb the slime core when his blood touch it? Why does this seem like a contract? Regardless, to a person who have no attack skill right now, this was a god sent. The slime core scent sudden disappearance stopped the meerkat from attacking Kip. As if finish playing with him, they walked away leisurely in a manner that irritate him.

Covered in scratches, Kip upsettingly walked back to his cave. This skill better be worth it he thought. On the way back, Kip picked up a few branches, wanting to use them as weapon; in doing so came up with an idea of a ranged weapon. Halfway back, he spotted a tree covered in red fruits that shaped like a mango, and smell absolutely wonderful. They were also surrounded by Meerkats, which could be cause him more trouble if he attempted to take the fruit in front of them. It’s time to use his foreshadow skill he thought, since he wanted to test his slime summoning skill later, he thought it will be good asking only 3 question for now

Is this red fruit edible by human? Yes

This is great news, as edible by human mean it wasn’t poisonous, this was two question in one. Who knows what kind of stomach Meerkat has, what is edible by them might be the cause of death for Kip, no harm being overly cautious. Especially since he can afford doing so with his skill.

Will the Meerkat attacked me if I pick fruit from the tree? Yes

Ah, this is troublesome, if he climbs up there and take their fruit, sudden attack my cause him to fall from his death. Kip wasn’t about to give up just yet. Food is precious when you out in the middle of nowhere, this could mean the death of him and Raven if he wasted this chance. Thinking carefully, he notices some fruit has ripened and fell on the ground, that gave him an idea. The meerkat seemed content eating fruit from up there, what about those?

Will the Meerkat attacked me if I pick up fruit on the ground? No

Kip was absolutely ecstatic, with a wild grin on his face; he collected a handful of these fruit before running away from the tree. He had enough trouble with Meerkat for today. Taking a bite of the fruit, it was absolutely wonderful. Delicious can’t even describe how the soft fruit is melting in his mouth right now. He decided to call this red mango, the only thing mango and this fruit has in common is that they are both sweet. Aside from that, it was like comparing Mc Donald and a 5-star restaurant.

Kip stuffed himself full with these tasty treat, before leisurely walking back and collected more for Raven. The meerkat didn’t even seem to mind his ridiculous behaviour right now. With a handful of red mango and loot, he happily travelled back to his base.

Raven wake up early, her body still felt a bit tired, but her leg was feeling so much better compared to yesterday. She washed herself clean with water, Kip hasn’t comeback the entire night. Raven was extremely worried but stayed put since he asked her to do so. She didn’t touch anymore food since it was his and didn’t seem right to eat more than her share. Why didn’t she brought her bag she thought? Looking at the Kip clothes (Underpants included) neatly packed in a corner, Raven couldn’t help but blush. “Boys” She signed, so careless.

It was then that she heard sound of leafs being moved from the tree entrance of the cave. Being alarmed, Raven pick up a rock and hold it tightly in her hand. It was until she heard his voice that she quickly relaxed, couldn’t help but smile brightly at his appearance shortly afterward. “Kip, you are back, I could feel you with the party sense but it was so faint I could not be sure. What happened to you” Raven inhaled. Kip looked like an entirely different person.

His hair was a mess, he was also covered in scratches and leafs, as if he rolled on the ground or something. His arm and neck was green from some paste, and he smelled strongly of herb. He was embracing 5 red fruit on his arm. The only thing that Raven could still recognise was his charming smiling face, although it was there was some scratches it was still the face that she was happy to see most right now.

Kip could feel Raven moving about in the cave since they are still in a party system. He smiled as he walked into the cave, seeing Raven in the morning was a sight to behold. Her sleepy appearance was really adorable he thought. Setting the fruit and pouch down, he walked toward her and gently reply “I’ve bought you breakfast. Sorry for the tardy appearance, I’ve been through a lot last night, if you don’t mind, I’m going to take a quick bath, eat the fruit while you wait, trust me you won’t regret it.” Grabbing a fresh change of clothes, he walks toward the hidden section of the stream, between the cave and outside to take a bath. “I can’t stand the smell of herb and meerkat anymore”.

Hearing this sentence, Raven seemed to be confuse. Meerkat? She didn’t wait and dig into the fruit ravenously. Even though she is hungry right now, she still admitted it’s the best thing she has ever tasted. After she was done, she wanted to wash her hand. Seemingly forget that Kip was still washing up. They ran into each other midway. Raven pressed her front toward Kip body. “I ah. I need to wash up too” She stuttered and quickly walked away. “God, that was so embarrassing, why did I do say something like that.

Kip could felt the pair soft thing pressed toward him after he finish his quick bath. She was so endowed for her age he thought. Kip couldn’t help it; he was a teenager after all. Waiting for Raven turn to bath, he thought this was the perfect time to test out his skill. Taking the ring he looted yesterday, he putted on his pinkie since it was the only finger that could accommodate the ring. It can’t be helped that the cyclops hand was smaller than his human hand, a buzz could be heard

A coming of age ring given to all Uromeck, allow the wearer of the ring to understand the tribe language Cost: passive

Upon reaching maximum level, the skill will become permanent, the user will also able to converse in Uromeck

Interesting, so the cyclops looking creature was called Uromeck. It seems they are very human like in many aspect. Reading about the tribe and existance, Kip couldn't help but worry. "What if I wasn't the only one attacked last night?" he thought. If that is the case, it looks like the enmity between human and Uromeck will only progress deeprer, the annihailation of either race seemed unavoidable.

Look like this ring might be useful after all. Next, Kip tried activating his spell summon slime; the same way he does with foreshadow, he can feel his hand pointing up in front of him. After a quick flash of light, a slime is summoned. Kip opened his eyes only to see a ball of green liquid looking back at him. The slime was a lot smaller than he imagined, maybe about 50 cm in total. It was cute as much as a slime could be. A

side from the small size, compare to the slime that he had seen, his was much smaller, and like to retain a mostly spherical shape. Kip gave it a simple command “Move to the left, alright, stop” The slime seemed to respond quickly to his voice, although a little slow. Kip was quite satisfied, this little fellow could be of use to him after all. He wondered If he could see it’s stat, since he was the summoner after all. As soon as he thought about it, a buzz could be heard

Kip quietly looked over the slime status screen. Hmm, so his pet doesn’t have a name yet. I guess it can’t use magic since it’s only a green slime. Unlimited stamina is understandable, and what is with that ridiculous strength. Kip gave a slight chuckle and talk to the slime as if he was a human being. Alright little buddy, your name is Bubble from now on, since that is what you look like. Checking the slime status screen, he thought, what does the skill devour and digest do. A buzz was heard following this thought

Slime skill: Devour

SLIME DEAL DAMAGE PROPORTIONAL TO IT’S STRENGTH STATUS

STATUS: CORROSIVE STAT ADD TO NORMAL ATTACK

“Wait for me at the cave entrance, we have some testing to do.” The slime creep slowly toward the entrance. Kip has a slight smile on his face when Raven came back. He looked deep in thought until he spotted her. A girl wet hair is a wonder on its own. “Here is my towel, use it to clean your hair. Don’t worry, I have another one.” Kip tried to avoid staring at Raven appearance which can only be describe with one word: Seductive!

Raven nodded and shyly pick up the towel from his hand. She saw him staring at her when she was drying her hair. This seems to make her happy somewhat. “So what happened when you were outside, I’m dying to know”. Kip narrate his story to her from the beginning, as the story goes on. A mixed of different expression can be seen on Raven face. She was amused when he told her about the slime and meerkat fight. But looked worried when the Uromeck was mentioned. Kip assured her that he will figure this situation soon enough. But at least they don’t have to worry about water and food for now.

Raven told him about her passive throw skill. Although when he tried the process on himself, it just doesn’t seem to work. “

Looks like it’s quite hard to get a skill. Your compatibility could be a big factor as well. That’s how I could get observance and you throw” Raven looked at Kip and asked “So what do we do now?” Kip looked deep in thought, and answered “I could try heading to the bus top to check on the survivor there. Your leg has not fully healed yet, so take a bit of rest for now. You can head outside for a bit if you wanted too, but remember to rub the herb on you if it gets late”

“Alright, I’ll look for material we can use outside, but you are not going yet are you” Raven asked with a sign of longing in her voice, she wanted to travel with Kip, but she will only slow him down. She needed to get stronger first.

Kip seemed to notice her intention, he grin and says “No, I need to prepare some defence in the cave. And also fasten some weapon for the both of us” Satisfy with his answer. Raven went outside to stretch her body a bit, leaving Kip in his preparation for what is to come on the second day on this strange world.
