Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

Chapter 165: CHAPTER 164 - Garvit’s life.

10:33, 22 July, 20XY.

Moorang, Himachal Pradesh, India.

Moorang was a place filled with peace and quiet. It was a good place, but not many knew about it as it was not that famous.

There were some mountain peaks around it—some good places for photos and sightseeing.

This is the place where Garvit Tanwar, a guy Alex had met during the second and third tutorials, was right now.

He was doing nothing, just lazing around with his partner, Shera the red tiger.

Shera was lying on the ground, feeling the coldness of it, and relaxing on the ground, while Garvit was just lying over Shera's stomach, frowning from time to time, until he finally spoke.

"Why does your stomach make so much noise, man?!"

He growled as he sat up straight, looking at Shera with an irritated look.

Enjoy exclusives on m-vle-mp _yr.

He was trying to get some sleep here!

"Can't even let a man sleep..."

He grumbled, shaking his head before sighing, trying to lay back down on Shera's stomach, but the tiger, who heard Garvit's words, couldn't stop his expression from twitching.

'What am I, a pillow?'

It wanted to say that, but from its half-closed eyes, it saw Garvit leaning back on it, and it growled.

"Growl!"

'You dare!'

Its eyes snapped open as it raised its hind leg, and...

*Baam*

"Wha—!"

Garvit, who heard Shera's words, wasn't even able to respond to it as his words were cut short by the kick that sent him flying about.

*Boom!*

He went straight and crashed into the trunk of a tree, causing it to crack.

*Crack*

Shera wasn't having it right now; first, the guy gets it to kill monsters—a lot more than he did himself—then he used its body as a pillow, and even though it let him be, now he had a problem with the grumble inside of his stomach.

If that was not enough, he is shameless enough to try to sleep on it again.

The nerves of the guy!

"Huff!"

With a final huff, Shera turned his head to the other side, closing its eyes, finally trying to sleep in some peace, but was Garvit going to take this lying down?

"Ghhhh..."

Garvit stuck in the tree and groaned; he felt like he almost had a crack in his ribcage, causing him to grit his teeth in pain before his eyes snapped toward Shera, who seemed unbothered by all of this.

[The Trickster Hero is saying that it was your fault for waking Shera up in that way.]

Yes, Shera was sleeping, dreaming about having a tigress, a home, and some kids, when Garvit did that, and this was probably the reason why the tiger got more irritated.

"His stomach is grumbling like thunder even though he ate just a while ago, and you want me to stay quiet about it?! Like, what the fuck?!

And even if I was wrong, how can he kick me?!"

Garvit's tone was raised, intentionally trying to make Shera listen to his words, but there was no movement from Shera other than his ears twitching from time to time.

But that was enough to let Garvit know that he was being ignored by Shera, even though the tiger could hear him.

"You!"

He stepped forward, gritting his teeth in frustration.

[The Trickster hero is saying that it seems more like you are the beast and he is your owner.]

Garvit paused for a second, staring at the message in front of him before he waved it off, not even replying to it.

He could retort, but he didn't want to get into a losing game—he had always lost to his patron god in argument.

People think that he has it easy because he has a tiger who is stronger than any other human, but no!

He doesn't have it any easier!

They got it all wrong!

Look at it—look at the bastard ignoring him without care!

He had to take care of all the shit this tiger!

However, Shera would have a different opinion about all of this if he were to listen to Garvit's thoughts.

*Step**Step*...

It was then that both Shera and Garvit's ears twitched.

The sound of footsteps... someone, or more than one, was moving toward them, but looking at how Shera was still lying down, Garvit understood who it was, and his eyes brightened.

"Hah!"

He paused in his tracks and scoffed at Shera.

"Do you think I will just lower my head again?"

He raised his voice, a smug undertone clear for Shera to hear, but the tiger just let it be, and loosened its body, trying to sleep again.

It was then that the owner of the footsteps came into view, causing Garvit's smile to widen.

It was a beautiful girl with black hair and royal blue eyes, moving toward them, no emotion visible on her face, but if one looked closely, one would notice a light of worry in her eyes.

She was resting on her own when she suddenly heard the booming sound, causing her to hurriedly rush here, but her steps slowed down, and she stopped before even reaching them.

Her expression turned dead as she understood the situation the moment she saw Shera lying on the ground, and Garvit, with his hair disheveled and dress creases standing a distance away from it, looked at them with a smug smile.

She instantly knew that nothing was wrong, and it was just Garvit and his antics. This almost made her take out her dagger and rush at the guy, but she reigned it in.

Garvit, on the other hand, just kept smiling as he stared at both of them.

Both of them?

Yes, there was one more person or more like a being with her.

"Kuungg!"

It was a stag—one that looked just about 2 months old—their new companion.

It was cute and pure, with no hint of malice or slyness in it, but that didn't mean it was baggage or something like that; it was one of the beings with an ability that was highest in demand right now.

It was a beast that they found lying on the ground, bloody claw marks on its body, waiting for its death.

It was probably attacked by a predator, but for some reason, the one who made it like that, had to go away, letting them have a chance to save the poor beast.

But, it was mainly because of Garvit's patron god helping them that they were able to save the poor girl.

Garvit always had a soft spot for animals, and this stag was one of the most gentle animals, so how could he not take her in?

But because of how she saw, the stag was unable to understand the reality of Garvit yet, even more so because she was a child.

"Kuunnggg!"

She just rushed toward Garvit, letting out a worried voice, and Garvit just opened his arms.

"Oh, Drishti! You are the only one who thinks about me!"

He hugged the stag, whose name seemed to be Drishti, letting out fake tears, as if trying to make Shera jealous, only to see the tiger shaking its head.

But just then, his world chat had an exclamation symbol appear over it, blinking continuously, causing him to frown.

"World chat."

"Kyunn?"

He called out, still frowning, making Drishti, tilt her head cutely—something that would've left Garvit jumping in glee.

Garvit, however, froze the moment he opened the world chat.

"B-Buddy, wake up..."

He muttered, his voice quivering in disbelief, and this change made both the black-haired girl and Shera frown.

"Grrr?"

Shera turned its head toward Garvit, its gaze questioning, but Garvit's next words momentarily froze it as well.

"A-Alex sent me a message..."
