《The life of a little orphan tortoise》Chapter 5: A miraculous and lucky wild encounter
Advertisement
Shao and Reya stray off from the nest, wandering around the sandy regions of the beach, they are in. Looking around, scavenging for food, in the process hunting some wild critters or much smaller prey, in order to gather up experience points, and level up.
In the midst of the hunt, they would often snack on any wild plants, seaweed, or kelp they would see within the facility, to fill up their bellies. Maintaining a healthy growing body, that needs a large amount of nutrients and sustenance for proper growth as they are now.
The first aquatic animal they encounter on their hunt was the very same species of Sea Cricketeer. They've encountered the previous day when Reya was ambushed by one of their kind.
Shao being the strong and protective brother as he is would then act as the main tank and heavy damage dealer within the group. While Reya is left out till the very end to deal the final blow, killing it, and naturally gaining the experience points from the kill.
So Shao immediately charges forward, towards the twig stick figure of the Sea Cricketeer, as fast as his little nimble web feet could handle. Slamming his large tortoise body against the fragile stick figure of the Sea Cricketeer, causing it to tumble and fall over onto its back. While Shao is effortlessly keeping it down by laying on top of it with its large body.
To assure that the weigh down Sea Cricketeer, could not put up any sought of resistance, or cause any harm to Reya while she is dealing the final blow.
Shao then bits off its skinny legs and long piercing claw without hesitation, severing it completely from its main body, as it cries miserably because of the sharp pain. Fear at the sight of what is gonna happens next to it.

It's undoubtful death.
"Your turn."
Shao said so in a cold unnerving tone, while still keeping his eyes focused on the Sea Cricketeer's disabled body. Keeping watch to see if it makes any strange and unexpected movements.
Having heard the signal given out by Shao. Reya then walks up, close by Shao from behind, and chomps on the neck of the Sea Cricketeer repeatedly. Because of her lower level and strength stats, it naturally took several biting attempts for Reya just to kill it.
Bit by bit, she makes a millimeter closer to achieving her desired results. While on the other hand, Shao or any other of her sibling can finish it, in one move. Severing the fragile neck and spinal cord of the Sea Cricketeer in half.
"It's easy, isn't it."
Shao commented on how easy it was for him to subdue and kill the lone Sea Cricketeer if it were himself. Whilst from the side, Reya is looking up rather tiredly, almost exhausted all of her strength, from the frequently repeated bite attacks. She is now panting quite heavily.
Looking down at her self. She could see the obvious inferiority between her and the others. Small, cowardly, and afraid. While all the others are strong, overbearing, courageous enough to take risks, in order to grow stronger and survive.
Shao and Reya continued their hunt, repeating the same sort of strategy for grinding experience points, by hunting much smaller critters and those that put up little defenses.

《2 Unallocated stats points gained.》
In the midst of the hunt, Shao and Reya found a wild Rock Clam that was washed accidentally, away by the strong ocean wave, set adrift onto the sandy beach.
Shao found this specimen to be quite peculiar and interesting, as it possesses a strong exterior shell, and would quite often open and close, popping its disgusting long tongue out. Shao then walks over towards it curiously, observing it quietly at first, then followed by a desperate attempt to crush it with his mouth, whilst using bite.
The Rock Clam's strong exterior shell managed to withstand Shao's repeated biting attempts, attempting to shatter its shell. However, the Rock Clam's exterior shell didn't give in, neither was there any cracks within it.
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Bite Lv6」 has become 「Bite Lv7.》
Shao didn't give up, continuing his unruly assault on the Rock Clam. Gathering more proficiency within the bite skill until it levels up. And in the process acquiring the strength up skill, by training the strenuous muscles within his mouth, repeatedly with each bite of his.
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Strength Up Lv1」acquired.》
With newfound strength pulsing within his veins, he continued his one last bite. Strong enough to pierce through the Rock Clam's exterior shell, forming cracks on the surface of the exterior shell. Continuing his assault without backing down, the shell finally caved in and falls apart. Some managed to pierce the internal fleshy real body of the Rock Clam, fatally killing it. As it was crushed instantly by Shao, shortly afterward without remorse.
《Experience points have reached a designated degree. The individual, Shao Lv7 has become Lv8.》
《Every basic stats rose.》
《Level Up Bonus: Skill Proficiency was acquired.》
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Bite Lv7」 has become 「Bite Lv8」.》
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Strength Up Lv1」 has become 「Strength Up Lv2」.》
《2 Unallocated stats points gained.》
《Experience points have reached a designated degree. The individual, Shao Lv8 has become Lv9.》
《Every basic stats rose.》
《Level Up Bonus: Skill Proficiency was acquired.》
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Bite Lv8」 has become 「Bite Lv9」.》
《Skill proficiency has reached a designated point. Skill 「Strength Up Lv2」 has become 「Strength Up Lv3」.》

"I finally did it. I crushed that little bugger. I gained 2 levels in 1 fight."

Khaldir's Observer
Markus Kuberski, a 21-year-old mechanical engineering student at the Vienna University of Technology and a weeb, is bored by life. He has no girlfriend he cannot meet up with his friends because there is another Covid-lockdown and getting a side-job is also unsuccessful. Therefore, he has started to write a web novel. “If I cannot be the main character with magical powers and a harem full of cute girls in real life then I will create my own universe and be its protagonist.” Although that has been his first thought, he neither dare to use himself as the main character’s template nor write a harem story. “I am not that desperate!” he muses to himself. Little does he know that he will get more than he asked for when a mighty existence becomes interested in his story and makes it a reality. Hello, this is my first attempt at creating something like a novel. English is also not my native language, so expect some grammar and punctuation issues. I am using Grammarly to help myself in this regard, but in some areas, the free app cannot correct everything.There is currently no fixed schedule, although I believe that two chapters per week should be reasonable. Depending on how much time I have, I can write more.
