Jack's ragged clothes dripped with blood as he made his way back home.

After having understood how powerful an eagle is despite it being only in Pseudo Chain Breaking Stage, he decided to move in a more careful manner.

Shifting through between trees and trees, with his eyes constantly looking around for danger, Jack finally arrived back at his cottage.

He continued his steps forward, and moved to a river nearby to take a quick bath.

*Whew..*

After the short but intense fight with the eagle, Jack went in home and sat on his bed.

With his back pressed against the wall, Jack massaged his sore legs.

A silent atmosphere spread out in the air, as Jack is pondering at when should he start travelling to the city.

"Well, I probably should get as strong as I could get over here, for now."

Even the wild mountains have such strong presences in them, much less the more advanced civilization. Who knows how well-trained the people around there are?

As such, Jack's mind started to focus on ways to earn more XP.

"System, besides killing things and doing quests, what other methods are there to earn XP?"

*Ding* Hello stupid host, you can also earn more XP by achieving something special.

"...What do you mean by 'something special'?"

*Ding* This system is suddenly very lazy to ding, host should figure out yourself."

With Jack's current Mind stat, it is more than enough for him to handle the bastardly system.

"Something special huh?...although that doesn't matter for now, since I should be able to earn more XP grinding mobs than to figure a way out to 'achieve something special'."

Very quickly, Jack began to focus back on ways to farm mobs.

"Making simple animal traps could be a way, but 20 thousand XP is what I need to level up. I don't believe ordinary cats and dogs could give me much XP, probably less than a 100 XP for each of them. So making traps are probably not worthwhile."

"As for traps that kills insects, if i make lots of them, they should only give me about a couple hundred XP per day, but that is too slow for my patience."

"Hunting for stronger beings seems like the fastest way to gain more XP, yet it is highly dangerous if I met stronger existences."

"But eventually, leveling up will take a long time even when I try my best to do so. During those times, I would probably have to constantly fight with beings stronger or at the same level as me. Which means I should start forging my skills right now, and keep challenging the more powerful ones.(Those that have broke through their limits)."

Jack sat there frozen, thinking for a few more minutes, and decided that the cowardly method does not suit his style.

"Well then, hunting mutants it is."

After having the issue resolved, Jack went ahead and called it a rest day. He wasn't really used to constant intense battles yet, and other than that, he's also not in a hurry to level up quickly.

Approximately 2 hours later,

A little ant was wandering about aimlessly, its head and vision was constantly directed towards here and there, with the frequent rubbing of its limbs, you know, that it is lost from its pack.

Seeing the blurry colors of different shapes and sizes, each at their own varying spot, the pitiful ant had its head spinning rounds.

That was until everything became dark, the little ant stared at the skies.

The sun has fallen and the moon was nowhere to be found,

And with a loud thud, Jack fell off his bed whilst sleeping.

*Ding* You have killed an ant! +0.004 XP

"Urghh..." Jack grunted in irritation.

Although he didn't felt any pain from the fall due to his physical state, but it was still an annoying experience after all.

After a few seconds, his mind returned crystal clear.

"Hmm...what should I do?...Oh right, the missions!"

But just as Jack was going to focus on the missions tab, a sudden thought came across his mind.

"System! Why are my coins still at 20? Won't I get coins from killing mobs?! How else am I supposed to earn more coins?!"

*Ding* The host can acquire coins by killing mobs after he reaches level 8. The host could also earn coins by completing missions or achieving something special.

"Something special..." Jack narrowed his eyes.

And so he did a 360 back flip while on a handstand.

*Ding* The host has done something special! +50 XP, +30 Coins, +1 Oversized Hand Boots

*Ding* The host has acquired a title! [Gucking Fenius]
