Hunting

The next morning Alfin was ready to go hunt some strong monster, he checked his arsenal, it consisted of a bone bat, 2 bone daggers and a wooden spear. The wooden spear would not be useful in any way as it would not even penetrate the skin of the strong monsters. Now his only option was to beat them to death with his bat or poke them to death by daggers. He made his mind to use only the bone bat because for using daggers he has to get close to the monster which would be very risky.

He went out of the cave and went deeper in the forest as of now he was just in the outskirts of the forest. Alfin was not able to find any monster which he could hunt but was able to spot two gigantic mammoth like monsters, after just spotting them he ran away from that area, that was not his cup of tea. After searching for around three hours he was still not able to find any monster he could take on, he only saw monsters that were big enough to kill him like an ant.

When he was thinking of going back he saw one more monster 100 meter in front of him which was a wolf with two big teeth coming out from the sides of its mouth and its size was comparable to a ox from earth. This was a type of monster which was only made for hunting not hunted. Alfin cursed at his luck and was about turn back when he heard a growl. Unluckily the wolf monster was able to smell him from that far and spotted him. Wolf's eyes were set on Alfin who was watching the wolf with horror in his eyes.

Alfin started running back to the direction of the cave and the wolf also started chasing him, the wolf was fast and was gaining distance on Alfin who was running for his life. Alfin knew he could not outrun the wolf, so he started thinking a way to get rid of this wolf. But nothing came to his mind, so he just climbed a tree to get some to think of a way to deal with this wolf.

The wolf just came close and slammed the tree which Alfin was on, the tree shook wildly and Alfin slipped from the tree and started falling just in front of the wolf. In the nick of time he took the bone bat from his back and swung it at the head of wolf with all his strength, the wolf took the bat at his face and it saw stars coming in front of its eyes. Now it was angry but it has taken some damage and was dizzy now.

Alfin thought this was his chance so he started beating the head of the wolf with bat mercilessly. It was hard to tell whose unlucky day it was, suddenly wolf turned and used its tale like a whip to create some distance from him which hit Alfin on his chest, his three ribs cracked from the collision but it did not stop him he chased the wolf an started hitting its head again and again until the wolf was dead. Head of the wolf was totally mashed to pulp and was unrecognizable. It was already evening, and now the problem was how to get the wolf near the cave as it was very heavy around 800 pounds.

Alfin had only one option that was to drag the wolf's body back to the cave, and he was in pain too because of his broken ribs but he gathered his strength and started dragging the wolf by its tail. It was tough but somehow he managed to drag it back. The body of the wolf was very useful to him, he can use its fur to make a coat for himself as he was still wearing the same clothes for a month and they are torn from many places. The wolf skin was tough, if he made a coat from it that can increase his defense, he will be immune to some slashes.

Alfin took his kitchen knife and started removing the fur from the wolf's body, because he did not wanted to damage the fur his whole concentration was on it, he even forgot that he is in pain because of broken ribs and also he was hungry. It took him more than an hour to remove the fur out of the wolf. He then started the fire and started roasting the meat of wolf. After eating he took out the two big teeth of the wolf which were around 15 inches and started tying them on top of his bone bat with the help of the tendons of wolf, he made a pickaxe as it will be more helpful to kill the monsters and after doing all this he was very tired he went back to the cave to sleep.
