《A Curious Case of Mobs Extra》Chapter Sixteen
Advertisement
I collect the carcass and walk back home dragging my tired body as fast as I can. I still alert on the surrounding. The risk of an ambush is nonexistence but being alert never failed me even once before, so there is no reason for me to stop doing it. I arrive at the shelters without no troubles but the troubles await for me.
From afar, I can see Teacher Shizuka waiting for me at my shelter entrance. I contemplate to maybe make my injuries seem worse than it is but I don't know if Teacher Shizuka will see through the ruse. Better safe than sorry I guess. I decided to take out the rabbit carcass that I just hunt before and bring it to the camp not using the dimensional item to make me look a lot tougher. Well, a man needs to show his masculinity sometimes in front of the woman he likes.
If I get lucky, Teacher Shizuka maybe willingly bandaging my wound like the popular scenes that always played on the Korean drama. A man bandaging the woman wound or the woman bandaging the man wound, those scenes usually lead to both of them developing the feeling to one another. Suddenly, I'm excited thinking about what will happen if things go right for me in near future. Well, Teacher Shizuka just noticing me arriving at the camp not long after. Cross my fingers and hoping for the best.
"Mobs, what happened?" she asked with urgency in her voice. Seems she is quite worried about what happened after the trios and me.
"Nothing, I just came back from my hunt," I replied knowing the answered she's looking for is about the trio, not me.
"Not that, but..sigh. You look terrible by the way, a lot of cuts that need to be treated if you want to avoid infections. Come, let me help you with that." She conceded about asking the details for her students not before I get some treatment in me. "Sit down and show me your hand." She ordered me while pointing toward the stump I used as chairs near my firepit.
I sit down after putting the rabbit I killed on my handmade table near the firepit. The table was made only using several stick branches and ropes. A temporary structure but quite essentials for my survivability. I extended my arms and Teacher Shizuka start to check the cuts. However, things start to get weird, she starts to check both of my arms, then proceed to ask me to take off my shirt. I complied the orders with a few excitements and high hopes. However, Teacher Shizuka proceeding to check my eyeballs after checking my chest and my backside. She even asked me to open my mouth wide for her to check for something. I feel a little bit weirded by it already but still complied.
"Teacher Shizuka, what is going on?" I asked for some explanation.
"Well, I got an intel that the enemy of Frostborne and Somerborne clan will attack this training incursion and injured and possibly killing all of you by unknown means. So I just checking if you got poisoned or infected by a nasty disease or something unknown." Teacher Shizuka explained.
"Are you sure you not just taking advantage of your student?" I asked teasing the virgin teacher.
"What! I do not." She replied with a slight higher pitch voice.
"I can continue to sacrificing my body for you to check up on, Teacher Shizuka." I joked about her previous blunders while opening my arms wide open. "You should listen to my heartbeat too, maybe they use a poison undetected from physical means and only affect my heartbeat. You should put your ears on my chest to check on it, Teacher Shizuka."

What I got in return is worth the pains of having a peak refining stage expert flicking her fingers on your forehead. Teacher Shizuka's blushing face will forever burn into my mind undeleted and safekeeping on a special vault.
"Don't be ridiculous, I already check your pulse when checking your arms before." She stated the fact that I'm as healthy as I should be. Only a little bang-up from the fight with the horned rabbit before.
"Here, eat this pill. It will heal all of your cuts and bruises. It is the same with the pill you ate before but the potency is lower and cheaper too, suitable for cuts and bruises only." She explained.
"Huh, Wha...what happened to bandages," I asked disappointed about the turn of event. It is not supposed to happen like this, she supposed to bandages my cuts and we bonded over the experience. Then, the feelings flowered in our heart and one thing lead to another, we finally be together.
"Why do you need to have bandage when you can heal the bruises and cuts instantly." She replied without a bit of remorse about my disappointment. Ahh...Teacher Shizuka, why you need to be so dense. Have you never seen any Korean drama before, have you not seen how many couples fall in love with each other when the bandage his or her partner injuries. She then continued asking for some clarification on why I was alone at the shelter. "So, where are your other teammates? It is getting dark, they should come back already from their hunt."
"Oh...you don't get the news? Those three got stuck on a dungeon. Somehow, Senior Yukino familiar found a hole on the dungeon barrier and able to contact me this morning. So, I help them by ordering some supplies and pack them in a small dimensional bag for the familiar to smuggles into the dungeon. She said the dungeon will take at least a month to be cleared. So I ordered them enough for two months." I told Teacher Shizuka what happened to the trios. "I think they will be safe from assassination as long as they stuck in the other dimension."
"What!!!"
"Dungeon, Stuck for at least a month, already give them supplies for three people to live for two months" I summarised what happened to her students. "Do you want some burgers for dinner? It is getting dark, why don't you have some dinner first, then I'll tell you about what I know. I don't know much, but I'll try to answer as best as I can."
"Sure"
"Good, what kind of topping do you want? I recommend having a grilled patty wrapped in eggs. The wrapped eggs will give a unique texture and indirectly holds the patty juice making the patty several times more delicious in my experience." I explained one of my favorite burgers' topping. "If not, you can go classics. The cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes. Add some pickles too if you fancy."
She took her time to made the decisions. I kinda get tired waiting for the decisions, so I just prepare several basic burgers topping and push everything for her to taste which one of the topping she like the most. She finally decided the topping I called 'The Breakfast' as the best and asked me to make for her another serving. I make two, one for her to eat here with me, another for her to takeaway to her house. The Breakfast topping is consists of the best breakfast food turned into toppings. The finely spice horned rabbit patty, the egg patty mix with chops bacon, thick slices of grilled bacon, cucumber pickles, a freshly picked lettuce and two quarter-inch thick of sliced potatoes deep-fried until it became golden crispy. Half teaspoon of maple syrup to give a hint of sweetness to the burgers, some mustard to add a little spiciness and lastly, those toppings are squeezed with freshly baked burger bread. The sheer volume of the ingredients and the burger size will make you think about your health but the texture, and the taste will make you forget about it instantly.

"Hmm...Mobs, this is delicious. Did you make it yourself? I can't believe a pervert like you know how to cook like this."
"Teacher, Firstly, I'm not a pervert. I'm just a passionate man. Secondly, Not only this pervert knows how to cook burgers, but this burger is only the tip of an iceberg. I can cook more complex food and dishes. Just say what do you want to eat, I'll make it with the best of my abilities. Lastly, I'm not only like to cook, but I also like to eat good food. Especially if the food is an unmarried, singles, sexy matured ladies like you, Teacher Shizuka." I said while holding her hand. I know I will get some hurt from this. I don't know what is wrong with me, I can help myself from teasing her like that. The closest thing I can say about my condition is, I'm an addict, and I was addicted to watching and experiencing Teacher Shizuka embarrass reaction. What can I say, her reaction is priceless, cute and deadly. So, as an addict, we prepared to suffer the consequences of our action but the consequences never arrive.
"I'm gonna let those pass this time. Since you cooked for me these delicious burgers and even provide for some takeaway for me, so I'll let you pass this time. This time only!" She said with a stern voice. Her red cheeks betray her serious warning though. You know nothing Teacher Shizuka. Have you not watch animes before, the pervert characters always getting hurt but our tenacity always prevails. We always came by for a second time to peep at the girl's bath area again even if we got caught the first time and got beat up for it, we will still do it if the plot permits. That's the nature of a perverted extra characters. We make the comic relief for a serious genre and as a cliche plot of main character misunderstanding trope.
My mind nearly went overload processing what she just said. Did this mark the start of a beautiful and hilarious relationship and slightly forbidden relationship between teacher and student? I should learn more cooking methods and cook more delicious food for her. Should I commit myself to be a gourmet hunter? Nah, I don't have time and energy to do something like that. I should buy the ingredients if I want to cook it. Searching for exotics seems too much effort for my parts. We filled our eating times with a lot of small talk. I asked her some pointers about the hunt and how I can to improve my performance. She proposed for me to learn some movement skills and learns some warrior basics skills for protection. Our talk stretch until the moon came out from behind the night cloud. I told her all I know about what happened to those three and she told me about her intel from her confidential source.
"Thanks for inviting me to this dinner. I really need it, You don't know how panic I was when I found out there is someone trying to kill my students. I don't know Senior Memphis island is so big, I was lucky to find out your shelter, If not, I'm sure I will assume the worse." she confessed about helplessness "You really does help me. I don't know what I do if I can't find where they are."
"You should thank me by taking me out for a date."
She just glared at me in response to blurting something like that. Whoops, I nearly crossed the line of no return.
"You're too young for me to date."
"Age is just a number to cultivators, we can live for thousands of years. I'm fifteen this year, almost an adult already."
What I get as a response is only another hand flick, but this one is not hurt so much. She soften her heart to me maybe. "Don't lie, I read your file, you're only ten years old when you're recruited. Just your body seems to be bigger than any normal ten years old body."
"Oww...busted. But I have a fifteen years old body, so I considered my age to be equals with my body."
"Don't be ridiculous, ten is a ten. Not fifteen, even your soul is forty years old, if your body is ten years old, you will be considered ten years old. No cheating." She asserted her worldview. I guess having the world filled with the transmigrated persons will do that to you. She then stands up readying to leave my shelters. "Eight years, if you can raise your cultivation into the peak of refinement stage like me right now in eight years, I will consider dating you."
"Really? but eight years seem a little bit weird, Teacher Shizuka. Made it an even ten years, I will breakthrough into a refinement stage and be at the top of the stage in ten years. Then you not just consider it, you must having a date with me." I declared my intentions. I know what I said and do before can be seen as a joke, but I'm very serious about this matter. I do likes Teacher Shizuka. Mobs, you traitor. Did you forget about Scarlett Lionheart already? The stunning and beautiful MILF of The Leaping Carp's Inn. Well, this world law is difference from the old earth. I will conquer every one of those mature beauty. Even from the past, present and the future, I'll catch them all.
"Ten years it is. It is a bet then. We will meet again after ten years, you don't need to come to my class again after this. Just follow the guidelines I give to you before, contact Yukino if you want to buy the next cultivation volume and in ten years, we will meet here again. Agreed?"
"Agreed, it is a bet." I agreed the term stated by Teacher Yukino.
"Good, Make sure Yukino inform me as soon as they came out from the dungeon. Remind them to registered the dungeon under the one who found them first. Even this island belongs to Senior Memphis, they still have the right to claim the dungeon after they cleared it the first time. And mobs, if you failed the bet, prepared to face the consequences." She warned me about failing the deals. I smiled about her antics, I guess her status as a prodigy holds her one way or another to have some real relationship with another person. "Mobs, remember these three principles. Cultivators cultivate, hunt and fight. Never stop doing it, if not, we will be left behind in cultivations."
"Yes, Teacher Shizuka. Goodbye." I said while doing a slight bow toward her.
She wave her hand and look back one more time before disappearing from my view. I kinda wish she gives me a goodbye gift to look forward to another ten years of hard work. If I'm a normal extra characters, achieving those in ten years will only be as dreams. However, if I exploited the other main characters' inheritances I have right now and the one I will get in the future, my opportunities are quite promising. I guess my focus right now is to hunt as much as I can for this training incursion and activating the orb of wheels to exploited its fortune.
"Good, I like the look of a determines young man. I'll be waiting for you in ten years here. Have this as a parting gift to remembers me." Teacher Shizuka said out of nowhere. She then proceeds to kiss my cheek as a parting gift. I just stood there not knowing what to do from her sudden appearance. The kiss doesn't help a little bit too. I don't even see her coming, just a sweet fragrance that I can smell which synonyms with Teacher Shizuka's perfume. The sweet smell just wafting around intoxicating me, indicating that she was here before. Man, that woman is probably an expert playing gullible young man like me. What have I awoke? I don't know the answers to that, but I like it. My spirit was burning, my desire to be strong was on fire.
"Fighting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I shouted to the vast emptiness of the plains and onto the silent of the night. I probably awake a lot of faunas but fuck it, I'm on fire! Tomorrow marks a new day for me, but tonight, I need to have some cold baths in the river nearby because of some certain unavoidable circumstances.

8 141Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends
In the civilized world of humans, 'monsters' have all but passed into legend. But when something goes bump in the night, when people begin to disappear, when a dark mystery begins to haunt even the most peaceful villages, there is only one organization to turn to: the Hunters. The Venatori. Having lived a life of discipline and service, former soldier Caiden Voros finds something even worse than the wars of humans: the monsters that hunt them. Horrors yet unknown even to him and his many scars await in the claws, talons, fangs, and mysterious powers of creatures so far beyond humans that he must dedicate himself entirely to the art of slaying them. Harboring a secret of his own and in a constant struggle to find answers while maintaining his sanity, however, Caiden begins to ask the age-old question... Who is truly worse, the monsters or the Men? Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends is an episodic collection of stories, each of which stand on its own, but they also build upon each other in a consecutive order, bridging a gap between a novel and short story collection. These stories follow monster hunter Caiden Voros and his partner Gwen Vergil as they embark on tales of mystery, horror, and adventure to track down monsters - the living dead, beast-men, shape-shifters, spirits, and many more - that would do harm to innocent lives and, by whatever means necessary, put a stop to their terrors. Their motives, however, are not always what they seem.

8 98Cinder Roots (Undergoing a Rewrite)
This novel is currently undergoing a major rewrite, as I noticed several plot points that needed to be revamped. I'll leave the chapters I've posted here to anyone curious to see how everything started, but I'll be posting the rewritten story as a new novel in the future. The characters will be the same, but the journey will be more understandable and hopefully, a lot more fun to read. -------- First, everything was fire, it killed, it consumed, and it gave him life. He was just a tree, born in the biggest forest that remained in the world, full of dryads, naiads, elves and treants, but he was alone. He couldn’t see. He couldn’t talk. Curiosity plagued him. He dreamed of wandering the land, but could only wonder what stood outside the reach of his roots. The tree was tired of waiting. He decided to not just dream, but to act. How could he survive against a invading empire, a grand conspiracy that threatened to shake the foundations of the world, and the raw danger that lies within these woods? With pure determination. Warning - There are quite a few POV changes in the first chapters, but that'll change after the introduction is done, as I'll be focusing on the MC perspective only.
