[Ding! +100 Exp for successfully killing an Iron ranked beast]
In Arthur's status panel, which had been blank for quite some time, a new line appeared stating Level 1, and next to it 100/500 Exp. "Oh, looks like my life is starting to resemble a game now," Arthur remarked.
Another Scarlet bison, who was grazing near the one who had fallen, looked around anxiously for the attacker.
Arthur, more energized than ever, pulled another arrow and shot it straight at the Bison, who was far more alert.

Swish Swish Swish
Several arrows went out in the next dozen minutes, each one aiming at the Bisons. Arthur stroked the silver bow, knowing it must be a valuable treasure because, regular shooting longbows can only fire accurately up to a distance of 300 to 400 meters if the conditions are ideal, this one can easily fire shots up to 700 meters, about twice the distance of the previous one.
Arthur's Status interface, which had previously been stated as level 1, was currently updated to level 2, with the Exp bar displaying 900/1000.
In addition, a new line appeared: 1 stat point is available
Arthur noticed that as his level progressed, his overall abilities increased slightly.
"Hey system, where can I find my stats?"
As soon as Arthur uttered it, a new window appeared, displaying his basic stats, but some were greyed out.
Strength:21 +
Agility:21 +
Manna:800 +
Luck : 40
Charm: 53
The words "luck" and "charm" were both greyed out.
'Looks like i do have an ample amount of manna.'
"Let's increase strength by one stat point." Arthur improved his strength from 21 to 22 by clicking the plus symbol next to strength. Arthur felt a little stronger than before, and he pulled the silver longbow string and discovered that it was much easier than earlier.
Arthur looked about and discovered that just one of the bison was still alive, scraping the ground with its horns and legs and looking around with rage, trying to figure out who was assaulting them like a coward, not revealing himself even though he was the last one standing.

Arthur examined the stats interface and discovered that all of his stats had increased by one, Except for the numbers that were greyed out.
Arthur had another free stat point for the time being, but he decided to keep it for later.
He quickly stowed the silver longbow in the storage area, got down from the tree, and approached the Bisons he had killed.
Each bison was fairly enormous, "Should I take some back?"
"No, I should calm down."
He shivered and shook his head as he remembered the one who was waiting for him and was terrified of the repercussions.
Arthur retrieved a short knife from the storage ring and began dissecting the bison in search of its core.
Nothing?
Although Arthur was unable to locate the beast's core, he was not disappointed because beast cores are extremely uncommon and far more expensive than Manna stones.
'Perhaps I should take some,' Arthur pondered as he dissected the bison.
Although the meat of an iron-ranked beast is not highly valuable, he chose to save some. He sliced the meat into flawless slabs, then looked at the system interface, remembering that the system still has storage space, so he chose to use it. As soon as he thought, the slabs of meat he diced vanished and appeared in the storage columns.
Arthur moved rapidly because there were still fourteen bison left to clean up, and it took him a while to work on them. He left the leather and horns alone, considering that iron-ranked materials are completely useless. If another iron ranked beast tamer had heard what Arthur had said, they would have puked blood, because they would take the entire beast and sell everything they could for manna stones. After all, it was tough for an iron-ranked beast tamer to earn money and even harder to kill an iron-ranked beast alone for them.
It was easy for Arthur because all of his attributes were already comparable to those of a bronze rank, plus he had an excellent weapon with him.

Arthur finished dismantling all of the red bison after another hour of arduous labor, and among the fifteen he killed, he obtained three beast cores, all of which were translucent as glass.
Arthur decided not to summon his beast because it was so weak that even stray assaults could gravely harm or perhaps kill it.
Arthur pulled out his map and looked for the next nearest spot. He decided to stop at a couple more places before returning.
He noted that the second location was considerably closer and that if he was faster, he could be there in less than ten minutes. Arthur, whose agility had improved, moved at a much faster rate than before.
Soon after arriving at the location, Arthur began to have second thoughts when he saw the beasts. The trees were filled with Ape-like beasts, each holding a mace, and he realized that hunting this Ape, which had weapons and could easily climb trees, would be much more difficult than hunting the scarlet bison. Arthur took a step back and retreated further away, deciding that the best thing to do would be to lure them one by one and finish them off.
Arthur entered the bush, got a piece of bison meat from the storage ring, and lay it on the ground. He then smeared a potion all over his body, hiding his presence. He then took out a long sword from the storage ring and held it in his hands.
The stench of blood quickly permeated the air.
Arthur didn't have to wait long since an ape came sprinting towards the slab of meat, dragging its mace on the ground, after only a few minutes.
It quickly approached the piece of meat and reached out to grab it.

Arthur, who was lurking in the bush, rapidly drove the sword into the Ape's heart, killing it with a single hit. Unlike the Scarlett bison, whose only weak point was its eyes, the Ape's were far less sturdy as they had more offensive capability.

As soon as he stabbed the ape, he immediately sent it into the system storage space, even before a drop of blood could fall on the ground.
Arthur didn't waste any time in finding his next unfortunate victim.

After around a dozen Apes were slain, the Apes noticed something was wrong because more of their teammates had vanished. They all hurried to the area where their comrades had vanished.
When Arthur noticed the Apes running in his direction, he took off without hesitation.
When the apes saw him, they became furious because they understood he was the one who was solely responsible for everything.
With a rage-filled voice, the one who appeared to be the gang's leader shouted "Hu Hu Ha" as he saw Arthur running.
Arthur, who was sprinting, explored the ring and found a massive crossbow; as soon as he grabbed it, he came to a halt.
'Damn it, it's too heavy,' Arthur exclaimed as he slid it back into his storage ring and resumed his run.
‘
What was she thinking, putting a weapon so heavy that I couldn't even lift it?
Arthur grumbled and decided not to utilize the stat point to boost his strength since he felt it would be pointless as it was too hefty.
Soon after, he extracted a much smaller crossbow from the pile of weapons and exhaled a sigh of relief, finding it to be very manageable.
While running, Arthur loaded his crossbow and shot an ape straight through the legs, pinning it to the ground.

The Magitons
Book 3 of the Universe Series This novel continues the adventure from the previous novel, Ocean of Dreams. Each novel is meant to stand alone. Widhbo ( pronounced "wee bow") is a MC who will be in each of the six novels in the main series. The starship Sora had been hurtling through space using its FTL propulsion system toward the Dezba star system for over a decade since leaving the planet Beldora of the Hellsaxe system. The Sora had crash landed on Beldora over a century earlier carrying a couple of aliens from another dimension. The ship came from the Borrugal Realm, a band world associated with what was known as the Tor Galaxy, what we call the Milky Way. Human life on Beldora was never the same. Under the influence of the alien known as Widhbo, Beldora was catapulted from the steam age to the space age. The majority of the scientific advances on Beldora were attributed to the leadership of a brilliant man, Jejliard Castonea, who was secretly manipulated by the alien, Widhbo. When rapid advances in technology inadvertently led to a nuclear war, Jejliard decided to evacuate his family, friends and co-workers on the Sora. The plan was to find a new habitable planet and rebuild civilization until they could safely return home. Much to his despair, Jejliard’s family and friends opted to stay on Beldora to ride out the war underground. Even the other alien, Gengor, stayed behind. Borrowing technology stored in the archives of the Sora, Widhbo managed to transfer the personalities of those staying on the planet into digital storage units known as magitons which could survive indefinitely in cold, sterile space. Living crew members who elected to stay on board the Sora were also uploaded to ensure immortality for everyone in case their life support systems failed en route. Widhbo sought to design a cyber paradise for everyone inside their virtual worlds, but things never go as planned where Widhbo is concerned.
