“Aaaaah~ That wassss a good ssssleep… wait! Fuck! It wassssn’t a dream! Ssshit! Thiss isss sssso fucking annoying! Can I pleassse for the love of god ssstop hissssing!!!”
I shouted angrily.
It will take time, but you will eventually control the hissing.
“Sssseriously!? Time!? Ssssure… I have all the fucking time in the world”
I said, sarcastically.
“Well then, time to get back to killing”
I said, as I walked back into the forest.
“Ssssystem… what issss thisss foressst called anyway?”
I asked.
It is known by many names, but it’s most commonly referred to as: The Great Jaha Forest
“The Great Jaha Foressst… it hasss a nice ring to it”
I said with a small smile.
“Hisssssss”
I then heard a low hiss from outside my camp.
“Who’ssss there?”
I asked, then I saw a small red and black snake, its eyes were red like mine. Which gave me a sense of safety, since I knew that it was at least, somewhat similar to me.
.
“Oh… hey there little guy, are you here all alone? Want ssssomething to eat?”
I asked, as I held out some leftover cooked rabbit from last night.
“Hisssss”
It gave a low hiss, as it hesitantly slithered to me, ate the rabbit and slithered back to its original spot.
“It’ssss alright little guy… want to ssstay with me?”
I asked with a small smile.
“Hissss”
It replied with a hiss as it slowly slithered to me, then it coiled itself around my leg and fell asleep.
You have successfully tamed a rare “ Small Fire-Venom Snake” for taming a rare monster, you have gained the skill: Tame
“Oh… that’sss actually really fucking cool!”
I shouted excitedly, waking the “Small Fire-Venom Snake” in the process.
“Ssssorry about that little guy… what sssshould I call you?... How about Ouroborossss? Do you like that name? It’ssss based off the ssssnake that eatssss itsss own tail… I think it meanssss that the ssssnake has infinite… potential? Or ssssomething like that”

I said with a grin.
“Hisss”
It hissed happily.
“Okay then, Ouroborosss… let’sss go hunting”
I grinned as it hissed happily.

Ouroboros and I began hunting some rabbits, and I just found out that Ouroboros’ venom can do something really cool!
He can literally burn the blood of his enemies! Lighting them on fire! From the inside!
“Holy shit Ouroborossss! That wassss awesome!”
I complimented Ouroboros with a grin.
“Hisssss”
It hissed at me with a proud look.
“You can keep whatever you hunt, so… I guesssss you’re having quite a few rabbitssss for dinner”
I said, as I looked at the seven dead rabbits with agonised expressions on their faces.
“Want to go home?”
I asked with a grin.
“Hissssss”
It replied as it looked at the direction of the camp.
“Alright then, let’ssss go back”
I said, as I carried two wolves back to the camp.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
When I got back to the camp, I got several messages.
Your “Small Fire-Venom Snake” has evolved. It is now a “Fire-Venom Snake”

‘Okay, that’s actually pretty cool… I get half of the experience of whatever Ouroboros kills… so, if I tame more monsters… would I get more experience?’
I thought with a smile.
“Well then, time to check my [Sssstatus]”
I said, as the screen appeared in front of my face.

“Okay then, Ouroborosss would you mind if I started punching a tree?”
I asked, and Ouroboros just hissed at me with confusion on his face… wait, is Ouroboros even a male?

“Ouroborssss… are you a male or a female?”
I asked.
“Hissss?”
Ouroboros once again, hissed with confusion on its face.
“Ssssystem… what gender issss Ouroborosss?”
I asked, out of pure curiosity.
“Ouroboros” Has not evolved enough to get its own gender, wait until it evolves into a humanoid and then you will know the answer.
“O-okay… also, ssssystem… can you do the lottery thing now?”
I asked.
Rolling.
Several appealing things came across the screen.
“Goblin King”
“Armory”
“Adamantium Claws”
“Platinum-Diamond Armor”
“Spell Book: Necromancy”
But, what I got was… a “Wooden Hand”
“Sssseriously? What am I going to do with thissss!?”
I shouted angrily.
If you ever lose a hand, it would make a decent replacement.
“I-... fuck, it would be a decent replacement… except, I wouldn’t be able to move it!”
I shouted angrily as I punched a tree.
“...Calm down… think… what wassss I going to do again? Oh fuck, right… train”
I said, as I kept on punching the tree.
