"What do you have there?" Arthur asked, as he spun around.

Danny did remember ordering something, but he though there was no way it was already here.

"Boxes," he replied, as Arthur huffed. Before opening them, he got a knife from the kitchen. He may have been able to open it with just his strength, but that seemed strangely barbaric to him.

He cut the tape on the smaller one, that lay on top of the bigger one. Inside the box was a dark, pitch black space that he couldn't see the bottom of.

Still, he carefully reached his hand through, feeling something.

He grabbed it, pulling it out of the box, only to find... another box.

'The mystery intensifies,' he thought to himself, as he opened the box.

Turns out, it was the earrings he had bought the day prior. It had many intricate carvings along the box, with swirls, lines, flowers, and waves, intertwining perfectly. But the earrings, despite seeming completely normal, had something that made him like it more.

It was much more simple, with a purple hue. It was shaped like a tear drop, hanging by a chain connected to a magnetic clasp.

"You got a girlfriend, or something?" Arthur teased, giggling to himself. Danny ignored him.

He clasped it onto his earlobe, feeling a tingling sensation through his body.

He couldn't check the Item's description, since he didn't have a Gift related to observing, but he had a Status.

A Status was only visible to someone who had reached a state of Enlightenment. No one really knew why it happened.

Anyway, he pulled out his phone, as Arthur grumbled in his chair. He glossed over his Status, seeing the changes he expected.

Danny stared at his Status, wondering if there was an error. Wasn't it meant to be C-?

He glanced at Arthur, who had healed him past his poisoned state. "Hey, Arthur," he called. Arthur perked up.

"Yes, little duckling lost on a path he knows nothing about?" he responded. Danny still found this to be weird, but didn't call it out.

"What Rank can you detoxify poison, with that remedy?" he asked, turning his head away from Arthur.

Arthur seemed to ponder his question, but excitedly answered anyway. "Around C- Rank, if you're lucky. Like you were."

Somehow, Danny saw Arthur playing a game that was definitely different from his previous game.

Danny focused onto the other box now. He opened it.

Just like before, he reached in, pulling something out. It was a body, one that was not human. It was a Monster, in the shape of an Armadillo, though much bigger. Its shell was a bright blue, almost like the sky. There was a small gap, which he fumbled around with.

He lifted it up, finding wings underneath. A shiver was sent through his body.

He moved to the kitchen, bringing the dead Armadillo-like creature with him. He plopped it onto a pan, turning the heat up. It would cook slowly.

Until it cooked, he was worried about how to get rid of the shell.

He searched it up, finding inconclusive words and advice that seemed wrong to him.

Even until it was fully cooked, he couldn't find a way to properly deshell the animal.

He just decided to cut through the underside, which was rather easy. Then, he peeled the shell off, still attached with some skin.

He didn't have to worry about blood, as it should have been drained by the person who caught it. Monster blood was a precious material, after all.

He waited for the Monster to cool down by watching Arthur play his game. It was basically the same as his previous, yet very different in art and characters.

But, there was one opponent who seemed to be targeting him. In addition, he also seemed quite good at the game.

"What did you do?" Danny asked, leaning on the chair. Arthur had died, for the fifth time, against the same person: .

"I don't know," Arthur cried, after he finished yelling at the screen. "I even switched games to avoid him."

Then, in the chat box, a message appeared:

Arthur screamed in rage, as he almost punched the screen. Luckily, Danny held him back, as he struggled to move.

Still, he could have escaped. But Danny let him go, after feeling he was calm enough, to check on his food.

It looked disgusting, as the insides were no longer inside. Instead, they were filtering out of the hole he cut earlier. But, it did seem cold enough to eat, so he ate a little bit of it.

There wasn't a notification, so he kept eating. And eating.

He ate it all. He was still hungry, as he started prepping his other Monster.

This one, he knew off the back of his hand.

It was one of the more common Monsters, a Horned Rabbit. As they were Rabbits, they were everywhere. They were normally left alone, since they were harmless. But, their numbers were dwindled a couple times a year, in order to stop them from reproducing too much.

Thankfully, he knew how to cook Rabbit. Although, scraping out the insides was still disgusting.
