Haven Online

For the next few hours, Xinya worked on making potion after potion. He had long finished making the 20 stamina potions that Melvin wanted but still kept ongoing. He wanted to raise his skill to a high enough level so that he wouldn't have to waste money on renting a potion lab. With the recipes he had, he could just make it to that point before they stop giving him experience anymore.

Creating potions was like second nature to Xinya, since that was all he did in his previous life and these potions were what he specialized in, making them was very easy. Before he knew it, he made 100 of each potion recipe, the last one allowed him to reach the skill level that would allow him to make potions outside.

A lot of players would wonder: why he would want to make potions outside rather than staying in a nice and clean room with no distractions. While that might be ideal for tailors and blacksmiths, potion makers have to go to a lot of different areas to collect ingredients, like on mountain tops or the middle of the woods. He could always buy his ingredients but, if he could do it himself, why would he waste his coins like that.

Xinya used up all of his items that were necessary to make the two potions but succeeded in making 100 of each potion without failing once. But these were very easy potions if he failed even once, with the skills from his past life, he wouldn't know what to think. His skill level was at a high enough level, beyond the one he was aiming to get. He was aiming for level 5 but reached level 6. He only had four skill points left now and couldn't wait until he could change his class. Those extra 50 skill points would be a lifesaver for him.

While he sorted out his skill points he noticed that he had 6 stat points that he didn't use yet. He put one in HP, two in Stamina, two in intelligence, and one in luck.

After putting all of the potions he made into his inventory, Xinya decided that it was time to leave and go hunt some Bellyborgs. Checking the map, he saw that they were located in the northernmost part of the woods, just out of town. It would only take him about 15 minutes or so to reach the place.

Walking out was quite a chore, a lot of people kept staring at him and whispering to their friends. It was understandable since, at the moment, the race he had was considered trash but it was still irritating. He could only feel relief from escaping from the staring eyes once he left town and entered the forest. It was very quiet and quite lovely, it gave Xinya a serene feeling as he walked. As he walked he saw some wild strawberries and patches of Awegella, which he made sure to collect.

All of a sudden, Xinya heard strange noises up ahead, they were loud squawking sounds. Hearing that, he knew that he was close. Jogging, he reached a clearing, where there were dozens of Bellyborgs all over the place. Pulling out his weapons, he was ready to start.

Since the monsters were fast, he planned to try to sneak attack them and then go for the kill. That way, they wouldn't have time to run away from him. With that idea in mind, he crept over to the nearest Bellyborg, as quietly as he could. When he was in a stabbing distance, the Bellyborg suddenly took off running, as if it felt his presence. Writing it off as a fluke, he tried again, only for it to happen once more.

Convincing himself that he was just being too loud, he tried once more, but it kept on happening, to the point where Xinya gave up on being sneaky and just chased after them like a mad man. After an hour of tiredly chasing and not being able to catch even one, Xinya fell to the ground in defeat. It was time for a new strategy.

As Xinya sat there on the grass, contemplating on what he should do, his messenger beeped. Opening it up, he saw that it was Melting Snow again. Wondering what he wanted, he pressed to accept the call.

"Hey, guess what, I'm here!" Melting Snow said excitedly.

"That's nice, but why didn't you stay with your brother?" Xinya asked curiously.

"I told you before, it's boring staying with him, he's not playing for fun. It's all about the grind for him," replied Melting Snow.

Xinya thought that he must be a ranker then. "Well, since your here, want to help me catch some Bellyborgs?"

"Bellyborg? What kind of monster is that?" Melting Snow asked.

"They are giant birds that are very hard to catch and they are making me go a little crazy," Xinya replied honestly.

Laughing, Melting Snow said, "Alright, tell me where you are and I will be right over, it sounds like fun."
