Harem Reborn

Chapter 129: No, Wait...That Was An Ara!

"Ara Ara Ara, Ara?"(Just like old times, hey?)

"Stap it, you sound way too cute to be Dave!"

"ARA!"(Hey!)

"Okay, we need to find something for you to do to level up! There is no registered experience, and you cant level more than one level at a time! How about you open the menu, Mr. Foxxy!"

Ugh, I better change soon before Trina drowns me in her gushing. 

*Wave of evil thoughts rolling though my little fox mind*

No! lousy brain! I am not some lolicon! Stupid play on words takes my brain into a dark rabbit hole. Nevermind this, screen, page, sheet... what did she call it again, stupid brain...EVOLVE! 

Instantly a red screen appeared in my HUD that was back, but different this time. I had a health bar and some other things to do with my body, like hunger and the need to relieve myself. I had no idea why those were there, but they were part of the HUD and not the red screen.

Current Evolution: Basic Fox

Current Combat Skills:

[Bite] 1s

[Hide] 1h

[Track Rodents] 10m

Mating Skills:

[Fox]

That is a simple enough sheet, I guess I can just activate the skills like opening the menu, and the numbers must be the refresh rate. Good, a basic system so far, maybe I will try hunting; how does my hunger look? Jeez, I was just complaining about how I didn't need this stuff to tell me, but here I am.

After closing my sheet, I looked over my status bars and noticed that my hunger was just below half and was orange. The rest of my gauges seemed reasonable and were all green.

"Ara Ara Ara?"(Should I hunt?)

"Mmhmm! But be careful! You are what you eat!"

I wanted to ask more but refused to make those ridiculous noises. I bet weebs everywhere outside this game are just losing it whenever I talk! That's it! 

"ARA ARA!"

"Oh, my MOM! You're even cuter when you mad! Alright, I'll try to stop it, but... DAVE YOUR SUCH A CUTIE PIE!"

Trina flew at me with open arms, but I ignored her and started to walk. She passed through me and walked into the ground; interesting, I had half expected her to fly right through the ground. I wasn't sure if that bit of info would help me in the future, but I tucked it away as a random thought.

/Activate [Track Rodents]

Suddenly a force pulled me out of my fox body, and I was given a birds-eye view of the area around me. I spotted two blinking spots, and then I was sucked back down into my body. Two red lines running parallel to each other ran along the ground in the direction of the red dots I could see. 

I started to follow the lines, and I noticed that the skill [Track Rodents] was now im my display with a time stamp on it that was changing.

//9:23

Good, easy to track as well; for a first-time system, it was running pretty smoothly. I started to run in my new body, and I was surprised just how agile this little body was. I made some practice movements as I got close to my target; something inside me told me that it was close.

When I was not too far from the targets, I noticed that they led into a hole under a tree. I snuck over and watched the entrance, but then I noticed something. A supple and smooth green body was already pulling itself up to the hole, dammit!

The snake was already moving into the whole, but I wasn't sure if I could take it, and dying here was not the plan. Maybe I just wait and see what happens; I would lose my meal, but I would be alive to talk about it later. Suddenly I heard a squeal, no, wait...that was an Ara!

I ran forwards as Trina screamed that this was a horrible idea. I didn't care; no animal made an Ara sound, so that only mean one thing, one of the animals in there was not an animal. 

[Bite]

[Bite]

[Bite]

Three hard bites caused the snake's green body to writhe in pain and twist as I jumped back. 

//Skill Upgrade Acquired: [Bite] is now [Rending Bite]

//[Rending Bite] 5s-Additional effects: Target starts to bleed and loses 1% of total health -per bite -per 5s X20

Woah, auto skills levels, but no time for thoughts as the green serpent pulled itself and a rabbit's limp body out of the hole. I could still hear the crying Ara's, so I focus on the snake. I had to kill it fast while it was still trying to eat!

[Rending Bite]

I leaped forward and sunk my teeth into the snake. Blood squirted as I tore a chunk out of its body, but now I was running again. I leaped and dodged the swinging tail.

[Rending Bite]

The snake writhed more as I bit again, but this time I was tossed back with my chunk of flesh. I was surprised that no taste came with each bite, just the wet and sticking feeling. It was almost like I was biting rigid and thick foam that was juicy.

I landed, and I finally noticed something close to the snakehead; I health bar, and it was in the red. I circled and watched the snake, it was in rough shape, but it had tossed the lifeless rabbit aside after my last attack. It was bleeding from two places now, but that wouldn't be enough to kill it.

The thing might be injured, but it was still a snake, and it was angry. I could just wait it out and see I it would leave, but something told me that wasn't going to happen. The snake kept its eyes on me, but I noticed something. josei

What the hell was it doing? Was the person inside there suicidal? I watch the small rabbit creep out of the hole as I circled the snake. 

Suddenly the snake turned on the small rabbit. Dammit!
