PATH OF THE STAR HUNTER

97 Chapter 97 Argument with the alchemist

′′ I understand that you find it daunting to fight against the dark-edged creeper tiger, but in it, you will find the best materials in this forest to improve your bow, and its meat is one of the best supplements for training that you could ask for and given the size. from the beast we would not have to look for meat for weeks if you can hunt it; Of course, other materials in it are of great value, but that is somewhat secondary in our case. ′′

Desmond was silent for a few moments before responding with a serious face to Sasha.

′′ How much would we benefit if I were able to hunt it? ′′

′′ His heart is by far the best core material for improving your bow, if we used it in conjunction with other materials taken from his body it should be able to increase the level of your bow by at least three degrees. Regarding the consumption of its meat, if you add it to your diet and accompany it with intense training you should be able to stabilize your current level of power and get very close to achieving a breakthrough; the rest of the materials in it would be pure extra profit and quite a significant profit. ′′ Sasha answered with great seriousness.

Desmond was silent again, he might seem calm on the surface, but in his mind Desmond was carrying out a series of calculations and simulations of possible scenarios for a battle against such a beast.

Sasha did not interrupt Desmond because she knew that it was a rather difficult battle that they would both have against the dark-edged creeper tiger, after a few moments Desmond seemed to conclude, but instead of telling Sasha his decision directly, he signaled him for both of them to leave the place.

′′ On the way to this place you mentioned that in this area there were a couple more things on our list or am I wrong? ′′ He said seriously as soon as they left the vicinity of the place where the tiger was.

′′ You are right, the dark-edged creeper tiger usually lives near places where flocks of pompous chickens live because they like to steal their eggs from time to time. ′′ Sasha explained.

′′ Can you take care of it alone? Desmond asked Sasha directly.

.....

′′ Sure, pompous chickens are famously cowards, I can practically take a walk while stealing their eggs. ′′ Sasha said slightly doubtful of Desmond’s intentions at this moment.

′′OK, you′ll take care of it and I′ll take care of the big boy back there. ′′ Express Desmond seriously.

′′ are you crazy? Killing that thing would already be incredibly difficult even with the two of you working together, you are looking to achieve the impossible, trying to kill it yourself is nothing more than suicide. ′′ Raising his voice and with great exasperation, Sasha expressed her protest against what she considered to be the greatest stupidity she had ever heard from her life.

′′ I do not believe in the impossible, now less than ever. ′′ Desmond said ignoring the alchemist’s protests.

′′ I can’t believe it, you will get them killed; I’m not going to allow you to do something stupid like this. “At the end of her statement, Sasha stood in Desmond’s way back to the place where the beast was.

′′ You have no opinion about it, I agreed to help you with your problems in exchange for a payment, that is the limit of our relationship; I have my own reasons for trying this and I don’t plan on dying today, but. . . I do not plan to back down from a challenge that I can meet simply because of the fear of failure, that is not who I am; that beast is my prey and the rest does not matter. ′′

Cold and ruthless was the Desmond that was before Sasha’s eyes at this moment, she could not believe that this was the same man who a moment ago was stroking her hair affectionately; Little did she know that Desmond was not trying to be cruel to her, but that he was too focused on the challenge ahead of him, thus revealing a flaw that Desmond had not been able to fix about himself.

When Desmond concentrated too much on a task that was of some importance to him, his emotional consciousness was drastically affected and he tended to be a bit indifferent or even cruel to the people around him. While such concentration had ensured his victory in many settings, he had also won Desmond many fights with Claire.

But at the same time the Desmond of today was different from the Desmond of the past and much of it was due to his fairy of blessings Kyuru and the moment of sincerity he had with Claire; With less weight on his shoulders and a more stable mind, Desmond was less likely to lock himself inside his mind when he encountered a problem.

′′ Sorry, it was not my intention to be cruel to you just now, he was a little too focused on the matter of the beast, But you really don’t have to worry. I will not die of my own free will, I am quite confident in being able to hunt that tiger and if I see that things are not as planned I will be the first to run. . . I won’t leave you alone, I promise. ′′ A little sorry for his earlier outburst Desmond apologized and tried to explain to Sasha that he would not take as great a risk as she believed.

Seeing Desmond return to his warm demeanor, Sasha found herself comforted for a reason that she was not able to understand at the moment, but was at least happy to hear that Desmond was apologetic and that he had some confidence in hunting the Blade Creeper Tiger Dark; although somewhat doubtful of this statement Sasha preferred to believe in Desmond on this particular occasion since Desmond did not seem to be lying.

′′ Okay, but if things go wrong you have to run, nothing to stay and die for something like stupid pride or something like that. ′′ Of course, trusting Desmond was different from not caring about him, so Sasha still reminded her that she should avoid danger as much as possible.

′′ Even hunters have their pride you know, it’s just that we are not willing to die for him, don’t worry I will keep reckless actions to a minimum. ′′ Desmond said calmly trying to give Sasha her warmest and most comforting smile, which seemed to work because after a bit of redness Sasha nodded softly.

Little did the naive Sasha know that they barely said goodbye, a predatory smile quickly played on Desmond’s lips as his eyes gradually filled with ferocity, as always Desmond had his own reasons for doing things, with the current situation in his world with the uncertainty that existed regarding the humanoid mutant beasts and the reaction of the military in this regard; Desmond desperately needed to increase his strength as soon as possible and since it was unrealistic that his actual strength would greatly increase right after a breakthrough, the next best option for Desmond was to upgrade his weapons and equipment, which is why he agreed. this mission in the first place.

Now Desmond was presented with prey that, if he were able to hunt it successfully, would greatly help the progress of both his personal strength and the improvement of the equipment; so there was no way in the world that Desmond would pass up this opportunity.

“I wonder if a fox can kill a tiger with one bite. ” Desmond said strangely to himself as he looked at his dear gentle fox-bow.
