Monstrous Appetite

" You don't know what wild beasts are? Really? You never encountered a Wild beast? They may not be as powerful as in the past considering the spiritual energy in the environment is lacking but there are low leveled ones. An example would be that oversized wolf who attacked you" Su Chen explained.

"No. nothing like that… my first time seeing something like that" Jiahn answered truthfully, actually wondering what they were talking about, he suddenly realized the wolf he saw looked abnormal was thrice the size of a normal wolf he knew and had two heads.

"That is shocking … u lived in the forest alone …" Su Chen sighed and realize he and Dr.Ju should not dwell on this youngster secrets. Since prying too much on someone they invested so much into would cause huge problems in the future, it would be best to ask as time went on and let the lad absorb the information he was already given.

This kid could stay in the forest for who knows how many years and not encountering a single beast. There was secretes .. but now was not the time.

" How is.. she? Is she fine? " Although Jihan was nervous, he started to feel at ease within the presence of these two people, he did not know why but he did not feel any ill intent towards him... It felt strange… he even felt a little closeness to them, like it came from with inside of him.

"My daughter, She is completely fine. It is not known by anyone within the village, not even my daughters and their mother that the Doctor that helped you heal up, is her grandfather here. Dr. Su Ju "

"Thank you for putting your life on the line for my granddaughter lad, you did not even know who she was and you jumped in harm's way without worrying about your safety." Su Ju actually gave an acknowledged slight bow of the head.

" I can not accept your thanks..it just" but before Jihan could continue he stomach growled and he felt a sharp pain like his insides were consuming themselves, he still wanted to ask more but he felt his stomach for a while no was not write and he felt monstrous hunger and extreme thirst.

Just before Su Chen could say anything, Dr. Su Ju rushed up to Jihan and suddenly turn pale from fright.

" Shit!!!, we forgot to provide the meals indicated in the book and complete;y forgot to prepare the meals for him in advance," Dr.Ju said in a tone only Su Chen could hear.

Su Chen immediately realized the error they made and also turned pale from fright they actually forgot something so important. They were so excited to see him awake they forgot the last instructions instructed in the book…

" Provide as many foods as possible to help stabilize the energy consumption of the initial stage.

Because it was stated that his body would be weaker then someone in the Vein refinement first level.

They completely forgotten based upon the text indicated in the book, they had to provide a huge amount of spiritual energy or food that could be converted to immediate energy that starts tempering the body since they bestowed him the forbidden body... Once the person awoke he needed to immediately consume food, and since the spiritual energy on their planet was running out... only direct consumption would work.

"Hurry, bring last nights hunters catch directly here. Call the kitchens to provide him with the wild chickens, beast rabbits and the Wild beast Ox that was hunted .. I don't even know if feeding him that would be enough. While he eats, tell all three hunters scouts to scatter in three directions and gather anything they can find!" Dr. Ju immediately disappeared after giving Su Chen orders.

Shit …. Shittt.. f#ck.! How can we overlook such a simple thing!

Dr.Ju was cursing under his breath, he was really upset about this matter. He immediately went into his Kitchen grabbed anything he could find. Even his complete rations stored up. He contemplated for a second before sighing in regret.. realizing how much they were putting into this lad without them even them knowing it. They didn't even doubt their thoughts and just provided everything for him. It felt weird.. but at the same time right. As if it was destined to be this way.

He went to his herb shelf, pushed it aside to expose a small compartment in the wall where he pulled out a leather bag the size of a fist, there still seemed to be 10 to 12 stored inside. he opened it up took out crystal like marbles crushed two of them over all the rations. He brought over 10 liters of water as well and done the same, crushing 4 of the crystal-like marbles.

Hopefully, these beast cores would be enough for his initial awakening.

Dr. Ju saw that Jihan was already in excruciating pain, the kid's face was extremely pale covered in sweat and he was actually chewing on the rags and skins that covered him.

"Don't eat that! here drink this ." Dr. Ju handed a liter Jug of water to him but watched wide-eyed as the boy just led the entire 1 liter in less than a second it seemed as if he didn't even swallow but directly threw everything down his throat.

He gave the kid the rations of chicken meat, Wild boar, Wild ox, and desolate raven meat. With less than 10 minutes of the lad munching down more than 5 Kg of meat disappeared. He drank another 2 liters but that never seem to help at all. Dr.Ju was covered in cold sweat and he started panicking waiting for Su Chen. Before Jihan looked over at him again with a pained and hungry expression. Su Chen steeped into the room with over 30 kg of meat and 10 kg fruit and vegetables. That also disappeared within 20 minutes. Jihan finished the 10 liters of water, but his skin seemed to dehydrate instead of rehydrating.

" Where the f#ck is the catch from yesterday hunt!!" Dr. Ju seemed hysterical as he screamed as Su Chen. Su Chen was still staring wide-eyed at Jihan finishing the fruits and meat.

"They should be here now, outside … let me get them "

He disappeared outside, within a few seconds he looked as if he was straining himself carrying a massive package half the size of his body but almost 4 times the size in width.

"This is 200 kg of meat of the Desolate raven beast they hunted," Su Chen said, carrying it over to Jihan, the meat was already cooked as were planning on distributing it tonight amongst the families and hunters.

"Good!" Dr.Ju started cutting over huge chunks of meat. At least 5 kg each and handing them to Jihan.

" I have never seen anyone eat so much before… look it doesn't even seem to be helping, " Su Chen said in a panicked voice as he started at Jihan devouring the food as if he was still starved for weeks.

Already 60 Kg of meat disappeared within him and he looked like he wasn't stopping anytime soon.

"I knew this would happen if the food doesn't satisfy him…. Su Chen... I had to take out 'THAT' just in case and sprinkled it over the food and into the water. it should kick in soon" Dr. Ju said glancing at Su Chen while still cutting the meat.

" Yes … understand, the energy from the core should help"

" We need Supper for him ready, so this is just his breakfast. Has the hunters started already??"

" They immediately scattered when I gave the order, they already hunter a few small game but nothing substantial so far.

After Jihan finished another chunk of meat, which equated to 110 kg of the Desolate beast meat. He noticed that eating this meat was better, he could at least feel that his stomach had something inside and his body was getting better but he was still monstrously hungry. Noticing that Jihan frowned after eating more than half, Dr.Ju started explaining.

" Yes, your body needs Spiritual Energy, because of the lack of spiritual energy. You can only consume whatever there is directly. Your body is supposed to absorb spiritual energy from the surroundings unconsciously without you worrying about getting hungry. the lack of spiritual energy is causing this hunger. lucky your body is completing breaking down everything into what it needs, nothing goes to waste.

Jihan was first confused at what they were talking about but then he suddenly knew what everything they were saying made sense. Although he didn't know why his body was like this.

"If you still aren't full after eating the last 90 kg of meat we will have to resort to desperate measures…"
