So... I been walking for several minutes now, and just now I realized that I never checked my stats after leveling up... I was just too focused on my thoughts...

Hmm… thanks to the tree I increased my strength stat, but my speed stat is still 10, that’s too low for me!… well, I still have like 3 monster cores, I could try to use them to improve my speed, but I don’t know how much will it increased my stat, fuuu… I don’t know if it’s worth it.

- “...”.

I think that for now I will keep the monster cores and hunt a little, maybe later when I have more I could decide what to use them for.

- “…!!!”.

let’s go!

A few hours later.

Stupid slimes! Why in the hell are they so damn fast?

- “kyw!!!”.

- “…!”.

Don’t run from me, baby! Don’t run… come here and take this!

- “KYW!!!… ky… k...”.

… Level 9, I’ve been hunting for at least a few hours, I’ve killed like 5 slimes and 2 hares, and I only got to level 9, UGH!!! the worst part is that I haven’t received bonus experience since I got to level 6, not only that but I haven’t encountered more level 7 monsters, only level 5 and 6… fuuu… this is harder than I thought... if it wasn’t for this tree, It probably would be tacking me way longer since these little things are so damn fast.

Hmm… I’m getting closer to 1000 of experience required for each level now… bloody hell! Why does it take so much to just advance one level? I mean, if this is like a video game, shouldn’t the first levels be easy to reach? The only reason why I’m already level 9 is because of the bonus of experience I got the first few levels, Ugh… well, at least my speed got over 10, which I think is good since although I’m still slow, at least it’s getting a little easier to follow the slimes, the hares on the other hand, are still too fast, if it wasn’t for the large tree I’m using as a weapon I probably wouldn’t even be able to hit them.

- “...”.

I better keep going, thank God I don’t need to sleep and I don’t get tired, I’m also not hungry or thirsty, which just makes things easier.

- “...”.

… now I think about it, I’ve gotten like 7 monster cores, including the 3 I got before reaching level 6, I have a total of 10 monster cores, 5 slime monster cores, and 5 hare monster cores, but I still don’t know what to do with them.

- “Look out!”.

- “Shit! Damn it, these wolves are too strong”.

- “be more careful!”.

Oh? oh!!! human voices, they are coming from behind those trees to my right, I’ve got to see what is going on!

- “GRRR!!!”.

That sounded like a growl. mm… thank god these trees are so big, I just hope those people can’t recognize me as a Golem, I will just get behind a bunch of trees and act like several big rocks put together. I can see them!

- “…?”.

- “Take this!”.

- “GRRR!!! ROAAAR!!!”.

- “Ugh!!! heal me!”.

- “Stop being so reckless! these things are not easy and my magic energy is dropping quickly”.

WOW!!! 4 humans against like 5 wolves. Damn! Those things seem vicious. So there are 2 humans with swords and shields, one with a book and another one with a… staff? I don’t know how to call that thing, but… holy mother of sin!!! did the guy with the book just…? Did he just create a ball of fire out of nowhere? This shit is getting too crazy.

- “AAAGH!!! help!!!”.

Ouch! that’s got to hurt, a bite to the leg and another to the shoulder, that must be… wait! What is that light around him? Why does he look okay all of a sudden? What is going on?… oh? The taller guy with the sword and the shield just charged against the wolves, he hit 2 of them, but those things don’t seem like giving up any time soon.

- “GRRR!!!”.

… I heard another wolf very close but I can’t see…

- “ROAAAR!!!”.

… it comes from behind me! There is a wolf behind me, oh shit! That thing looks pissed, but why? I haven’t done anything?

- “GRRR… ROAR!...”.

… damn it! Okay, bad boy! Show me what you’ve got, let’s see who wins, a big rock like me, or a puppy in steroids.

- “ROAAAR!!!”.

- “…!!!”

Take this!… shit! He dodged it! How did he do that? He barely moved, okay, horizontal attack it is then… he dodged it again! He jumped in my direction, ha, like he’s gonna be able to…

- “GRRR!”.

- “…?”

What? The fangs of this thing just pierced my rocky arm! How did it? Wait a minute! Of course, if the horn of those bunnies can pierce through my body and get stuck, why would it be any different for the wolf?… get away from me stupid dog! Ugh! The bastard doesn’t want to let my arm go, then receive this hit!

- “GRRR! GRRR!!! ROAAAR!!!”.

Ugh! That did hurt! The bastard just took a piece of my rocky arm in his mouth and break it with his fangs… what kind of joke is this?

- “over here! there’s another one!… eh? there’s also a Golem!”.

Shit! One of the humans found me! And the other ones are close behind.

- “GRRR!!!”.

That scary arse wolf doesn’t seem to be afraid of them, he actually looks even more pissed than before… hold on! weren’t those humans fighting against a group of wolves, if they are here, does that mean they killed the wolves? I’m saved! If they killed 5 wolves then there’s no way they can’t kill this one.

- “is that… a level 10 dire wolf? That thing must be slightly stronger than the wolves we just fought”.

Level 10? did I hear that right? This wolf is level 10 and yet it is that powerful?

I’m level 9 and that thing just took a piece of my arm with a bite, a big piece… now I see it, the humans seem to be very wary of the wolf.

- “We can do this… right? I mean, even if it’s level 10, we are 4 and he’s one, we just killed 5 dire wolves”.

- “Yeah, but those ones were lower than level 10, and this one looks bigger, I would say this one is not a scout wolf but an "attack" wolf”.

Scout wolf? Attack wolf? I don’t know what is going on but this is getting too complicated for me, I’m out. I try to walk away, the problem is… I’m too damn big, the moment I took like 3 steps the humans looked at my direction and the wolf started to growl at me, what does it want? Does it wants to finish our fight?.

- “what do we do about the Golem?”.

- “We just kill it, That thing was fighting the wolf before we got here. If we are lucky the Golem will keep fighting that thing and get it’s attention so we can kill them both at the same time”.

- “…!!!”.

How dare you try to use me as bait only to kill me after? Wait! Forget that, it’s not a bad plan, but... who in the hell says its plan out loud in front of the person they are planning against? that’s plainly rude and stupid.

- “GRRR!!!”.

Something is wrong!

- “Wait, guys! Something is wrong, look! The wolf is releasing some mad magic energy”.

- “What is that thing going to do?”.

So they can also see it and feel it, the wolf, I can see some very gray dark colors coming out of his body, and his body is trembling by the way… this feels dangerous, I have to get away from here…

- “ROAAAAAR!!!”.

What a powerful pressure, it’s roar sends a powerful gust of wind around the area, not to mention how profoundly disturbing and scary was the roar itself.

- “What is that?”.

- “I think he just used a skill to call for back up!”.

- “…???”.

Did that guy said that the wolf is calling for back up? Oh, hell no! I’m not staying here for the back up to eat me alive, that thing literally took a piece of me with a bite, in this form I’m huge, I have a big arse, I’m not staying for this thing to eat me, Nop! Not gonna happen!

- “Ah! The Golem is trying to escape!.

Shit!

- “use a fireball and kill both of them”.

- “I’m almost out of magic energy, I only have 2 shots left”.

- “More than enough! Just use your fireball to kill them or weakening them, then we go before other wolves come!”.

Are they serious? They should be running right now! If my friends and I were in their places we would have gotten the hell out of here… is that…? A fireball? it’s coming to me, shit! I freaked out and ended up using my tree as a shield, but now the tree caught fire, what do I do?

- “ROAR!”.

Eh? the wolf attacked them, the guys with the shield are trying to push him back but they can’t, instead, they are being pushed.

- “what in the world? This thing is too strong!”.

- “It was an "attack" wolf after all! Damn it, prepare a second fireball, we will push him back and you attack”.

- “I… I can’t… sorry guys, I’m out of here!”.

- “Wait! don’t leave or we are gonna die”.

- “If I stay I die!”.

- “get back here you coward!”.

- “ugh!!! that thing got my shoulder… ugh… shit! It doesn’t let go”.

- “Heal him! Quick!”.

- “I’m almost out of ME. and we still need to get back to town, if I use it now, I won’t have for the way back”.

- “just run guys, this thing won’t leave me unless he rips my arms off, I’ll keep it busy”.

- “No way! don’t be stupid, release him stupid wolf!”.

Wow! The one who ran away is both a smart little shit and a piece of trash for leaving his friends behind. Those guys… they look younger than me, maybe around my sister of 17… and they must be bloody brave and loyal ones if they stayed with a guy that will die anyway… well, I won’t need this tree anyway.

- “…!!!”.

- “Hey! Watch out!”.

The guys looked up just to see the tree in flames that I throw to the wolf. That bastard just evades it and separated itself from the humans, but… that thing… it just ripped the guy's arm off, the guy scream is bloody disturbing.

- “AAAAAGH!!! My arm!!! Damn it!”.

- “GRRR!!!”.

Oh, shit! The thing now is focused on me, I messed up, I didn’t want the humans to die but I’m not noble enough to sacrifice myself for them. Now the wolf is charging at me.

- “heal me quickly!”.

- “got it!”.

- “here I go! Take this you fucking dire wolf!!!”.

Eh? the wolf is close to me and… the guy threw his sword to the wolf? What in the hell?

- “GRRR… ROAR!”.

The sword hit him in the side. This is my chance. There’s a tree right behind me, it’s my turn.

- “…!!!”.

- “What is that thing doing?”.

- “he’s ripping that tree from the ground!”

Hell yeah, I am! Take this you sucker.

- “He threw it to the wolf!”

- “Eh? it dodges it, but the wolf should be hurt! How could it dodge it?”

… are you kidding me right now? The wolf is hurt on the side, by a sword, I threw a massive tree to it, and it still dodges it, what the hell is this wolf made of?

- “ROAAAR!”.

Oh shit! The sound of more wolves comes from the distance. I supposed there’s only one thing I can do, throwing trees around to block the path and that way be able to escape.

- “We have to get out of here!”.

- “let’s go!”.

- “GRRR!!!”.

- “Shit! it’s back!”.

- “Huh? Another tree!”.

I threw one last tree to block the wolf from getting the humans, then I use my hand to indicate them to run and then I ran the other way blocking my way.

I didn’t check to see if the humans ran or not, but they must be a hell of a bunch of idiots if they stayed to be eaten by wolves... I can hear them, the sound of howls and growls, I’m not fast enough but hopefully, I can escape, I won’t let myself die here, not like this, I have to run, Run! RUN!!!
