Everyone is preparing for the major event

They continued to argue as they made their way to the coffee shop. It was late. Despite the many people on the road, many hunters were seen passing by, some preparing for their hunts. When they arrived at the coffee shop, they heard news from other hunters about the possibility of collaboration, with options for both group and individual partnerships. However, they ignored them and sat down for a coffee break. Roxy's aunt was absent, but they were still well cared for.

Shaji initiated the conversation, asking, "What are your thoughts on collaboration?" Roxy replied, "I believe that offering assistance is a more suitable approach than collaboration." Joyce agreed as well. So the group decided to go on their own. After agreeing to hunt the following day, Shaji suggested something: "If it's okay with the place where I used to hunt, it's quieter but dangerous. The hunting activity is minimal there, too. The two agreed. " The next day they went to the guild. All the requests were for Animal Meat and other foods. other cooking ingredients. vegetables too.

But at the bottom of the board, they noticed a request that said five people were missing, all women aged 15. And there was a reward of 50 gold. It was so low reward. so other hunters didn't take this. Shaji took it and registered it. Everything was ready, and they rented a carriage to go to the place. It was afternoon when they arrived at the entrance of a vast hunting field. And there the three got off. And the person who brought them told them good luck, I hope you catch a lot. The three thanked them and told them to pick us up here in five days. And the carriage finally left. Joyce said wow, the scenery is so vast and beautiful. "Let's go, I'm excited," said Ms. Roxy. And that's when they entered the forest to start hunting.

Shaji suggested that it would be better for them to walk for five hours inside the forest so that it would be dark by the time they started hunting. As they walked, they noticed numerous appetizing creatures, but their goal was to catch rare ones. They believed they could handle any strong animals they encountered and provide high-quality meat, but for now, they chose to avoid engaging with them. Shaji knew where the uncommon creatures were; that was their plan, and nothing would change it. After five hours, Shaji urged Joyce to use her special abilities. Eventually, she activated what she called ARGUS EYE, a detection skill that utilized the sight of flying birds like crows and owls. Joyce began scouting the area for rare wildlife.

This had been one of Joyce's newly unlocked abilities after she dealt with her curse. Within minutes, Joyce discovered a rare creature about 15 minutes away from their location. They quickly made their way to the specified spot. Roxy prepared her arrow as moonlight illuminated the area, allowing them to see the creature. They were amazed to find two pairs of blazing King Bison. It was incredible, resembling a walking fire. The bison emitted flames only when provoked; otherwise, they remained calm. The group finalized their plans, and Shaji took charge of executing their strategy for the Rank A monster. As a wave of unease washed over him, Shaji recalled his first hunt and the possibility of encountering another monster. He checked the plan's readiness using his detection skills, ensuring he covered all 360 degrees for any threats. They planned a coordinated surprise attack on the bison, with Roxy prepared to use her VORTEX of Smoke.

This magical technique would create an illusion of clouds, temporarily obscuring visibility. Shaji was set to take the final shot. If the bison became agitated, he would utilize the boneless chupapa brisket cut—one of the special cutting abilities he had they don't succeed, Joyce's summoning of TUBER will be the last resort. However, her main goal is to keep an eye on the surroundings to prevent anyone from interfering with the plan. She has everything under control. The three of them are now positioned according to the strategy. Roxy attacks using her Lightning Fast Reflexes, catching the two bison by surprise. However, the plan doesn't go as expected; one bison unexpectedly runs in the direction of Joyce, who is not far away. Meanwhile, the other bison bravely confronts Roxy, causing some confusion. Shaji reassures Roxy, saying, "You take care of the bold bison; I'll handle the other one," and he pursues the bison that ran away.

Just as Shaji is about to catch up to the fleeing bison, a monster suddenly erupts from the ground – a Centipede Graboid. This alarming event occurs right in front of the bison and Shaji. Seeing this, Joyce casts a new spell, ALACRITAS, which speeds up moving objects for 10 seconds. She uses this spell on Shaji, who is astonished by the sudden surge of lightness and speed in his body. He quickly draws his Kalis Sword, preparing to confront the Centipede Graboid. Before using his sword, he chants "Boneless Chupapa," a skill that slows down the enemy's movements. With the added speed from Joyce's Alacritas, Shaji follows up with a second chant, "Brisket Cuts." Within 10 seconds, he defeats both monsters, leaving Joyce stunned by Shaji's skillful maneuvers.

She witnesses the meat being sliced perfectly. Meanwhile, Roxy, having already used her Vortex of Smoke, swiftly kills the other bison with her freezing poignard but is unable to see Shaji's battle due to the heavy smoke. After the smoke cleared, Roxy was surprised to see another monster behind her, which had been neatly sliced up. She noted that this was one of the rarest monsters. The three of them felt pleased with their first attempt. Roxy asked how Shaji managed to do all that in such a short amount of time, but Shaji and Joyce simply smiled in response. Joyce suggested that next time, Roxy should just observe Angkol Shaji's movements. Shaji then entered the Meat Portal with the monsters they had caught, and they all moved on.

They ventured deeper into the forest but decided to take a break and continue their exploration the following morning. Joyce set up a trap nearby, creating a magical fence to surround them. Meanwhile, Shaji prepared the grilling equipment and took the ingredients out of the Item Box. Well, he set aside three kilos of bison meat a while ago before entering everything into the Meat Portal. They cooked and ate. Shaji had a great time resting, except for a few pesky mosquitoes. He quickly pulled out a mosquito net, which was a brilliant idea! Before dawn, the three of them woke up to a surprising sound—a loud explosion not far away. A battle was taking place between a monster and a group of hunters.

Shaji recognized that the group fighting was the Juan Flame Party, He recalled a female member of the group, who was dressed only in a bra and shorts. Shaji quickly assessed the situation and realized that the enemy they were facing was a Centipede Graboid also. The battle lasted for about 30 minutes, with the three of them watching from their high perch in the trees, allowing them to see the fight. Eventually, the hunters defeated the monster, but they noticed that one of their members had been injured, and the group appeared tired. Instead of approaching them, Shaji suggested that they stay back for now and not reveal their presence. They then changed direction and continued their hunting.
