《Getting reborn as an Orc》Chapter 3
Advertisement
The Tier system is simple. One mid-tier 2 person can fight off 4 mid-tier 1 people in direct combat. Of course, in practice, the higher tier one had much more advantages but this was theoretical. So Shad didn't intend to fight anything higher tier or higher number. He was going to hunt down tier 0 monsters until he becomes tier 1.
The first thing he made a secure camp in the middle of the forest. For security, he used sharpened sticks and a relatively hard to reach position. He didn't want to be hunted while resting. The camp took an entire day to make. He just had his 2 sabers, a simple bedding mat, his water bottle, a steel rod to make fire, and a pot to cook. That was it.
The next day he started to hunt for prey. Shad stealthily walked his way to a boar, from the back he jumped on it, blades at hand. He penetrated the boar's skin only to draw blood. Creature runs. He thinks to himself "How high that monster's toughness is? It sposes to be a tier 0 like me. Then big boar turns with all its might.
Shad starts to run, he knew he can't win against a direct confrontation against that thing. But apparently, the creature does not just have higher toughness than Shad also higher agility. Soon creatures tusks hit Shad's calf. But he manages to stay on his feet. While bleeding jumps to a tree. He swiftly climbs. The creature hits the tree a few times to make him fall but Shad grabs the tree for his life. Soon boar get bored and lives.
While in the tree Shad thinks to himself, he was badly equipped, weak, and alone. That may be the test, noticing if you are weak alone and in need of others to build a strong team. He had a class that synergies with other people. A warrior acting as the tank, an archer as a lure and range control, he himself as a heavy hitter, and a shaman as a healer or area of effect guy.

While bleeding he felt his vitality and vitality reg getting improved from usage. He thought to himself, even if this is a test to make them notice they are weak alone he needed to be better, to achieve the big things he wanted.
Simply put he was a hard-working loser in his past life, this time he wanted to be on the top. And in orc society to be on the top means being the strongest. So this was what Shad going to do.
When you can't defeat your enemy in direct combat you defeat them with tricks. Hell for Shad when he was been able to defeat people in direct combat he preferred to defeat them with trickery while he was an orphan homeless boy in the streets in his past life.
He played the innocent boy while his bullies met with various cruel traps. Sometimes he made his bullies beat each other, sometimes he planted false evidence and made them thrown out of the foster homes or get in trouble with the police but sometimes he just used his knuckle duster.
He needed to wait at least 12 hours to heal, so he sat there. But doing nothing was counterproductive.
He knew there was magic in this world. He had skills that used stamina but nothing that used mana. But he knew the primary function of calculation stat in this world is spell creation speed and ability. He had a lot of time now so he started to concentrate.
Soon he started to channel mana from outside to in himself. This also helped with taking his mind away from feeling pain from his badly wounded calf.
In the middle of the night, he dropped himself from the tree fully healed. With a small stone floating in his hand. He gained the ability to weak telekinesis with his efforts. He managed to move objects up to 50 grams at fast speeds and up to 1 kg objects slowly. His skills name was telekinesis and had only 0.1 points. But again he was supposed to have no magic as far as he knew.

He returned to his camp with plans in mind.
In the early morning, he builds a shovel out of wood, then he digs a deep hole. The next thing he does is luring a boar to his hole. He trow stones strengthened with his telekinesis up from a tall and strong tree. Soon a massive boar just run toward it, then falls to the trap hole.
Shad's jump down from the tree. Takes a makeshift wood spear in his hand and starts to stab the beast. Creature squeals, and trow itself angry at the side of the 2-meter deep hole. Soon 5 more boar appear to help their captured brethren.
Shad just climb back to the tree. The other beast made angry voices not letting Shad have his kill. Shad returns to practicing his telekinesis skill, he just takes small stones from the ground and throws them to the beasts.
One thing is clear to shad at this moment, he should forget about easy kills. In a world, killing gives people stat points anything simply goes extinct if they are easy to kill.
Shad just annoy beasts with stones for hours but they don't live the trapped one. hours become night, he sleeps at the treetop. The next day he continues his trick. But beasts just don't give up.
He makes breakfast with tree bark. Why because he is hungry. But his efforts of constant usage of magic skill has its upsides, now he has much more power behind it. The stones he trow become stronger and stronger, his magic, mana skills growing because of constant usage.
When exhausted beasts just stand near the trap hole something came to his mind. The beasts look like have a hard time standing on their feet. He just pulls them with his magic to hole. Normally those beasts easily can defend against the relatively weak magic pull of Shad but because they are tired, out of balance, and couth by surprise they fall to the deep and large hole one by one.
A hole and a panicked bunch of boars. Shad pick-ups his wooden long spear and starts to stab them. But soon he finds out the stick is not quickly get dulled against tick boar skin. So he ties one of his sabers to the spear and starts slashing.
Although they are helpless killing the beast took another hour for the Shad. Beasts just die long painful deaths by weak puncture wounds.
When everything is over Shad just goes down the hole and takes one of the Boar legs. He returns to camp to eat.
