Chapter 10 - Let's Eat The Meat Of This Monster To Be Stronger



The Monster roared as it started to charge at the group hiding behind the rocks. The group screamed in terror as the monster got closer to them.

As they were screaming the monster went on to its back legs, appearing taller, whilst bringing one its paws up high to slash at the rock. 

As the monster\'s paw started to descend three arrows embedded into the monster\'s stomach. An anguished cry from the monster nearly made Arthur\'s ears start to bleed even when being high up in the air.

Arthur got five more arrows to appear into his bow after his sudden attack of firing the three arrows at the monster. 

Determinedly, Arthur released  five more fire bolts which hit vital areas in his opinion at this monster\'s body. 

The monster continued to roar in pain as it fell to the floor in agony. Blood drenched into the forest ground as it escaped the monster\'s body while it slowly started to go quiet as its deadly roars went silent.

The gang looked at Arthur with adoration and admiration, apart from Madly, as his body fell to the ground.

This was a man who they just made fun of a couple of minutes ago.He was the same man who just saved their lives alone by killing a monster that they knew it wasn\'t easy to kill.

As for Arthur, he knew the toll it was having ons  this weak body with it being  way worse than he expected. His blood felt like it was on fire and his vision started to become spotty.

However it wasn\'t bad to make him lose his consciousness, or perhaps he was too excited and eager to know this monster\'s secrets.

Once he reached the ground, his body felt weak but he couldn\'t let himself surrender to that weakness. 

He needed to go and dissect this monster\'s body and feel its energy, and he needed to do this fast. Back in his cultivation world, there were many monsters there. 

He had his share in hunting them, as they had the sweetest meat taste ever and were a good nutrition to a cultivator\'s body.

He needed to know what was different between the two, this world\'s monsters and his previous world\'s.

"Hurry, fetch me a knife or a sword. Be fast about it."He commanded the gang  as he used the bow to help him walk rapidly towards the monster\'s dead body. Everyone was stunned, however Ron was the first to respond to him.

"Take this young master," Ron said, showing extreme respect to Arthur. To him, Willy was a brother, a little brother that needed his protection and guidance all the time despite being at the same age.

But in front of him was the real embodiment of the young master he had in mind. Someone that was charismatic, strong, and a dependable young master that could make the game change by his actions.

Arthur took the sword from Ron as he reached the body of this leopard. It was longer and bigger than he expected, with it being  nearly twice the size of an adult human at least.

"C\'mon, help me move this body to the side," Arthur ordered loudly.

"Why the hurry? Take some rest young master as the demon core wouldn\'t evaporate if we waited," Edwar, the swordsman, spoke for the first time as he moved to support Arthur\'s trembling body.

"There is no time for that, just follow my orders and I will explain later."

Arthur couldn\'t tell them he was looking for the traces of spiritual energy, something that was very famous back in his world. 

Every living creature with power in the cultivation world had a minimal trace of a special kind of strength. 

This strength was unique that even gaining a tiny trace  would shorten many months of training time, however getting it was tricky. 

This was because after a creature dies there is a short varying window that allows the strength to be absorbed. 

Arthur had to dissect the creature as the strength can be focused in any organ in its body.

Arthur had a long experience in dissecting monsters, so he didn\'t find it weird to open this dead monster\'s body from head to tail. The abdomen was opened and its viscera was out.

Arthur did the most unexpected move to everyone, as he dropped his sword and put both of his hands deeply inside the viscera of this dead monster.

He began to sense the pulses of energy hidden deeply within this monster\'s organs. 

He just hoped everything would be like what he had back at his world, and luckily he sensed a faint trace of energy that was accumulating around a single organ.

He moved his hands fast to find this organ, and when he took it out by force, he wasn\'t surprised to find it was the heart.

"So this monster burns energy in his heart to supply his muscles with extreme violent energy that would push his speed off the charts, fantastic." He muttered these words which were strange to those around him. 

They suddenly felt weird, as being ignorant to a whole new world. Ron was the most shocked one, as the things Arthur did couldn\'t be explained by after disease effects.

He felt like he was standing beside a totally new person, a stranger for him.

As for the little gang, they were shocked as well. They had seen many mages travelling through the small village, and they had seen some of the dead monsters killed by them.

They would sell some parts of these monsters like nails and horns for weapon making, but there was no one who ever did what Arthur just did.

As for Arthur, he held the heart determinedly but he hesitated. He didn\'t know what the power in this heart would be, and would it be suitable for him or not. 

He kind of suspected the type of this energy would belong to speed.Although, Arthur wasn\'t in that need of speed right now, especially when he had many tricks to use. 

So, he turned to look at others as he was looking for a more suitable candidate, and he just found him.

"Ouly, come here fast."

Ouly looked with doubt towards Arthur but he felt confident that Arthur knew what he was doing. 

He moved and sat beside him as he looked towards the still warm, beating heart of that monster. The blood was still oozing from the heart slowly and dripping onto the ground.

"Look at me, I know what I\'m going to say is strange to you, but believe me this is a rare, very rare opportunity for you," Arthur firmly said with a calm tone.

"W-What opportunity?" Ouly hesitantly asked.

"The chance to open up your power and raise your strength by folds. The opportunity to really discover your talent and make the best use of it," Arthur replied simply as if he was saying something casual.

"W-W-What?!!!" Ouly was so anxious when he heard that and his mind was messy. He was their brain, the philosopher, but in front of Arthur he felt he was a little kid who knew nothing of this world.

"Listen well, there is not much time to waste here. If you don\'t want to take it, then fine I will take it myself," Arthur said.

"Then take it," Ouly immediately replied with a rush.

"If I did it I would waste a lot of potential in it, look… just forget what I said, I will do it myself," Arthur sensed Ouly\'s hesitation and he knew there was no time for that, so he decided to gain this power for himself.

"No, stop," Ouly felt strange fear when Arthur said these words.He was shocked by himself, as he didn\'t know why but something deeply inside him was dying to get this heart, "j-just tell me what to do."

Arthur smiled, it seemed the innate talent inside this young man had awakened and was desperate to eat this wisp of energy. Arthur\'s decision was right, and knowing that made him more relaxed about his choice.

"All I want you to do is simple, tighten your fist like this," Arthur then grabbed his fingers into a compact small ball like he was going to hit the opponent with a KO fist, "then give me your fist, hurry."

Ouly was already regretting stopping Arthur but he took the heart into his shaking hands. 

The heart felt squishy as he squeezed his fist and stretched it to Arthur who took his dagger as he said,"I will use your dagger, the one you have used frequently and make an open wound on your hand. Don\'t worry, the pain would go away fast."

Arthur then didn\'t wait for Ouly to overcome his surprise, as he immediately inserted the dagger deeply inside his fist. 

The dagger tip penetrated all the muscles and tissue of his fist.Ouly screamed in pain, and the others around them gasped in shock.

No one suspected Arthur to do something crazy like this.

However what followed was way much weirder, as Arthur grabbed Ouly\'s arm tightly as the fist was becoming bloody red and then he inserted it violently inside the beating heart of the monster.

The beating suddenly paused, and Ouly felt a strange marvelous sensation which followed by a weird synchronization between him and the heart of the monster. The two hearts beat with the same rhythm, like they two were connected. Ouly passed out at once with the heart still beating around his fist.

Everyone jumped to check on him, as they noticed how pale he was. What they didn\'t notice was the heart stopped oozing its blood despite beating regularly like before.

Arthur knew what that meant, the connection and synchronization process here in this world was the same like his previous one, or at least that was in theory.

He still lacked many things to determine the rules here, like if he used this incompatible power to his own, would it succeed or fail.

"What happened to him?" Madly asked with concern and worry.

"Don\'t worry. He is passing through an energy boosting phase right now. Once he awakes, you wouldn\'t be a match for him," Arthur replied with obvious fatigue as his body couldn\'t take the weakness anymore.

So his body crashed to the ground once he said these words.

"What?! Are you ok?" Ron was the first to jump and catch his body. Arthur was really exhausted, however he knew a way to replenish his lost energy. This way was the purpose of coming here after all.

"Listen to me, cut this monster\'s body and cook its meat."

"What are you talking about?" Lily was the second to rush over to him as she heard what he just said.

"The meat of this monster has many nutrients that are beneficial to all of us. We all must eat from it," Arthur hardly explained as he was facing some difficulty in keeping his mind awake.

"Are you delusional? We can\'t eat the meat of such monsters!" Madly suddenly yelled angrily towards him. She blames him for this mess and he has probably  killed one of her friends.

"Just listen to me, or else you will miss a big chance," Arthur said as he glanced briefly by rolling his eyes towards Madly who just sneered in response."Just do as I say Ron, and if any one wants to eat with us then that will be fine."

"What about you? Are you going to be ok?" Ron asked with concern and worry, as Arthur\'s body was still recovering from his illness.

"Don\'t worry, I won\'t be in danger. Just go and start a fire.. Keep yourselves alert, who knows what this fire might bring to us."
