Food Problem (3)

She had a total of three bites of the white fruit when she felt something swelling inside her stomach and burning her throat.

*Cough* cough*

She made loud coughs in the middle of her fourth bite. Her vision is gone and she can hear the continuous notification bell.

*Cough* Cough*

*Ting *Ting *Ting*

Her eyes are open but cannot see anything. She put her hands in her mouth where she coughed something out. Its volume of liquid. She can feel it dripping from her chin.

'Iron. . . taste like iron.' She thought but she already knew it was blood.

'I overdid it.' She laid her back at the tree and calmed herself. She calms her heart and listens to her surroundings. She is too weak to defend herself right now; she forces herself to stay awake but her consciousness is drifting away.

'Ugh. How many hours did it pass?'She groaned after waking up. Her throat is not burning anymore and her stomach is not hurting anymore. Two hours more and her vision starts to come back.

She was greeted by overlapping system's notifications. She exit notifications that are either:

[You have been poisoned.]

or

Warnings that her HP are dropping.

She is looking for a certain notification.

[Visual Impairment Tolerance: 15%]

[ . . . building stronger immunity for this poison]

She shows expression of contentment. The fruit she bit into earlier is stained with blood. She grabbed another white fruit and bit it off.

****

The sun already set when she drank a small potion to replenish her hp.

'There goes my last potion. . . . Potions are dropped items right? Should I go some?' She thought as she stretched her arms and legs. She cracked her neck and shoulders.

*ting* ting

[[Visual Impairment Tolerance: 33%]

[Visual Impairment Immunity Lvl 1]

- Player has built Immunity on certain Visual Impairment toxins or poisons.

She smiled as she threw the white pear shaped fruit up and caught it. She took a big bite out of the fruit she had been eating all day.

"Food Problem, solved." Her yellow eyes scanned the surroundings.

'Should I go hunt for some ogres?'

She is hiding quietly in the dark forest while watching the ogre's lair from below. There are more or less than 15 visible ogres scattered throughout their camp.

[???'s Hunting Spear activated "Moonlight Effect"]

'Let's start.' She moves to an area where one ogre is moving to a dark forest alone. She moves behind one tree to another until she gets close to the lone ogre. She jumped and stabbed the ogre's ear but didn't manage to instantly kill it.

"I didn't kill it in one go." She stared at the bloody tip of her spear. The stabbed ogre fell in front of her.

"Troublesome" she sighed and stabbed deeply the paralyzed ogre in the eyes.

'Eyes. *sighed* If only I could reach them easily.' She walks in the dark forest as her eyes glowing bright yellow with blood spats on her face.

She walked towards the lair once again and she heard familiar cries. She immediately looked for the source.

"..?! why did I bother saving you if you're going to get caught again?" She watches the black young wolf struggle in the hand of a huge ogre. The wolf bit the ogre's hand but it only pissed him off. He was then thrown off the ground and let out a painful cry.

Something snapped inside the girl's head. She remembers the experience being thrown to the ground.

"I'm going to kill that one." She clenched her fist as her eyes remained calm.

She runs towards one side of the lair and enters the same tent where the young wolf has been left.

Two ogre's were lying in wait. She was slightly taken back. She saw the wolf laying motionless in one table, from then she swiftly moved from one ogre to another. It took her less than fifteen seconds to paralyzed both ogres and half a minute to finish them off.

She stands in front of the unmoving cub. The black fur is wet with its own blood. She checked the young wolf breathing. It's there but weak.

'You can't die. I sacrificed my meat for you." She gently lifted the injured wolf in her arm.

She froze in her place after an unidentified cold sensation in her spine was felt. She slowly peeked outside the tent's cover and more than twenty ogre's were waiting with their weapons drawn for her.

"...! Ambush?' She frowned at the unexpected move.

She retreated back but there's no place she can run in this tent. She carefully placed the unconscious wolf at the farthest back of the tent and laid some cover. She pushed one table and put other things for cover.

"Open System"

Ogre's Axe

Ogre's Butcher's Knife

She stacked the weapons on the long table beside her. Just in time the first wave of Ogres enter the tent. They are smiling at the girl holding a spear and casually walk to her.

She then charged at the ogres and threw the spear at the middle ogre. Her spear was caught mid air but then she appeared below holding the axe in left hand, slashing the toes of the middle ogre and letting it fly at the ogre in her left. She grabbed the spear and pushed it at the ogre's mouth but before she had time to breathe, a huge blow in her abdomen sent her flying.

*Cough* Cough*

She clenched her stomach. She coughs a mixture of saliva and blood. She lost the rhythm of her breathing. Two ogres closed in while the other one was laying flat with her spear stuck to it.

She was kicked in the abdomen. She let out a painful cry. Breathing becomes harder and harder. One ogre raised its bat decorated by nails like spikes and swung it down to her.

She barely manages to throw herself in the opposite direction and create some distance between them. She is panting hard and her vision is starting to blur. She looks at the direction of her spear and at the same time two more ogres enter the tent.

'Is this because of the meat?' She suddenly thought. She went and stole all the smoked meat from yesterday.

She staggers to get away from the ogre in front of her. She jumps at the top of the table to grab the butcher's knife and throws it to the newly entered ogres. She slid her body on the ground to avoid the incoming fist. She stretched her arms to reach for her spear. All attributes and skills were activated immediately.

She didn't waste time and wound up the newly entered ogre. She created distance and waited for the paralysis to take effect.

[Fatigue + 7]

She stabbed one on its side and another on its thigh in less than 10 seconds. The ogres inside the tent were all paralyzed and killed afterwards.

* Ting

[You have level up]

She exits the screen and focuses her sight at the entrance. Huge dead bodies of ogres everywhere. It will be hard to continue the fight there and the young wolf may be put in danger.

She made up her mind.
