The Arcane Archer

Chapter 7

(A/N: Forgot that he burned off all of his clothing while in the cave soooo....)

Putting the book that she gave me into my inventory for safe keeping, I stood at the entrance of the cave just looking at the wilderness and enjoying the breeze.

For some reason though, it seemed to be much... breezier, then usual. Looking down I noticed why.

"f.u.c.k! I WAS f.u.c.kING NAKED THE ENTIRE TIME."

I ran back inside the cave and hoped that n.o.body saw me even though I was in a forest. Checking everything I had in my inventory and everything I threw to the sides of the cave, I couldn"t find any spare clothing.

"Ugh, I was hoping to save as many system points as I could. System, how many system points do I have?"

[You have a total of 132 System Points]

"Hmm... What full set of clothing can I get for around 50 system points?"

[For 50 System points, you can get a full set average adventurers gear. Would you like to purchase? Y/N]

I groaned mentally for having to waste points on clothing but I begrudgingly said yes. As soon as I did, the system asked if I wanted to equip the clothing immediately. Again I said yes and then immediately was fully equipped in a set of leather gear with a bunch of pockets and pouches on me.

There was even a little hood on the back that I could flip up if it started raining or something.

Now that I had clothing and wouldn"t be running around naked.

My plan for the next couple of days or so, I was going to find as many animals as I could and grind some experience. I don"t want to fight another enemy like the spider and be almost totally defenseless because I didn"t have my weapons or because I was weak.

With that in mind, I formed at work out schedule. With my adaption ability and me discovering that certain things I do will adapt my body quickly (like running), I could start doing increased workouts to increase every stat that doesn"t increase with a level up.

I might even be able to discover another way to get another leveling system as when it first gave me choices it stayed, "Choose one for now", heavy emphasis on the word "now".

This means that there is probably a way to get a new or extra leveling system.

Now that I have this all sorted out, I started my first workout. All it was, was me doing a bunch of pushups, sit-ups, and any other workout I could think of as I was doing the other two.


Heading outside, I looked for a relatively flat piece of land. It didn"t take to long as a couple hundred feet out there was a nice flat gra.s.sy area.

Taking off my bow and quiver, I set it to the side of me as I started doing the standard workout.

I got through around 10 pushups before I fell to the ground with pain in my arms,

[Thanks to working out and your {Adaptability}, you"ve gained {1 Strength} stat point.]

While laying on the gra.s.s and looking at this, I gave a faint smile and attempted to get back up and continue working out as seeing that my strength increased almost immediately encouraged me.

~1 Hour Later~

"Oh my f.u.c.king G.o.d I want to die"

At the moment, I was throwing up from working out. With my horrible strength and const.i.tution, just a simple hour of doing a basic workout was already making me throw up.

In between normal thoughts and and constantly thinking about wanting to die from this workout, I was able to ask the system to show me the my status without my skills, name, t.i.tles, and everything else.

~~~~~

Strength- 10 (+5)

Dexterity- 24

Const.i.tution- 15 (+2)

Intelligence- 18

Wisdom- 15 (+1)

Luck- 80

~~~~~

A total of 5 extra strength, 2 extra const.i.tution, and somehow a extra point in wisdom from who knows what. I moved away from the spot I was and moved to a much cleaner spot to lay down.

I spent a good ten minutes or so just laying down and having skills kick in and help my body. Once I finally felt good enough to move again, I moved over to where I had my quiver. I pulled out each arrow and enchanted all of them and added a mana mark to all of them as well.

When I was done with that, I was ready to start the Xp grind.

I started jogging at a moderate pace and stayed on the lookout for any sounds or sights that might"ve indicated a couple of animals or monsters I could hunt.

I ran in the same direction for ten minutes before I heard a bush to the right of me rustling around. Since it was so close, I jumped backwards as soon as soon as I heard it.

Luckily I did though as when I jumped back, a boar came running out of the bush right where I was and crashed into a tree opposite of where I was standing.

I pulled my bow out and got ready to fire a arrow but by the time I finished getting the bow out and knocking an arrow, the boar was already running towards me again.

"s.h.i.t" I cursed loudly as I jumped to the side while also dropping the arrow I had.

I attempted to roll after jumping but I"ve never actually done it while also focusing on something else so I just ended up hitting my head against the ground.

[Because of {Adaptability}, you"ve gained the skill {Basic Roll}]

*8 Bludgeoning damage

The boar once again came charging my way but I rolled to the side. With the arrow that I dropped earlier from rolling, I used the mana mark on it to quickly fire it to the boar.

*44 Piercing and Magical damage

The boar took the hit and only turned to look at me while throwing a look of rage my way.

I got off the ground and quickly got an arrow out and fired it while the boar started charging my way. Letting loose the arrow, it flew into the boars body again.

*65 Piercing and Magical damage

The boar screeched in pain but continued its run towards me while sticking out its tusks trying to pierce me with them. Once again, I quickly pulled out another arrow and shot it straight at the boar. As it flew, I saw it moving slightly to the right so I used the mana mark I put on it to fix it and put it dead center.

[Because of your {Adaptability}, you"ve gained the skill {Quick Draw}]

[Because of constant use of {Mana Mark} and {Adaptability}, {Mana Mark} has leveled up!]

As I did that, the boar continued to run forwards and had the arrow that I just moved go straight between the eyes.

*CRITICAL HIT! 54 Piercing and Magical damage x2 (108 Total Damage)

The boar staggered slightly from where it was running but when I looked it in the eyes I saw that it had pure rage and determination in its eyes to kill me.

I pulled out another arrow and knocked it but because I now had the quick draw skill, I quickly knocked it into place and shot it. The arrow found its place right where the other arrow was and went even deeper then the previous one.

*CRITICAL HIT! 54 Piercing and Magical damage x2 (108 Total Damage)

[You"ve killed a {Raging Forest Boar}, you"ve earned 35 Xp and 15 System Points.]

[You"ve leveled up!]

All the rage and determination that was in its eyes before vanished as that arrow finished it off. The boars legs stopped moving and it went straight into the ground but because of its momentum it continued to slide towards me. It only stopped after it was withing 3 feet of me.

Letting a sigh of release go I walked up to the boar and stored it into my inventory.

While the fight didn"t hurt me that much, it did show that I need to also practice moving while in combat along side my stat boost training. Just thinking about all of the work I was going to have to do just to improve myself caused a small headache to appear.

[Because of {Adaptability}, you"ve gained {Headache Resistance}]

It immediately numbed the pain down as if I took some medicine and helped me thing like normal again.

Pulling out my magical bottle of water, I went to drink some but was only able to get a couple of gulps before it emptied. Seeing this, I threw it to the ground in rage.

"CAN"T THINGS JUST GO MY WAY FOR ONCE!?"

I picked it back up and stored it in my inventory while mumbling while walking forwards in search of both more Xp to grind and water.

This continued on for a good while before I stopped mumbling and focused on listening for signs of water with my ears and keeping an eye out for anything that might try to kill me. After another hour, I discovered both.

As heard the water, I started running towards it, and as I got closer and closer, a arrow flew past my head. Looking up at the tree, a hooded figure that was very different from Feuer was crouching on a branch with a bow in their hands with a arrow prepared to fire.

Under my breath, I started mumbling again.

"Just one f.u.c.king day. Is that to much to ask for? I have 90 f.u.c.king luck but it seems to do f.u.c.kING NOTHING."
