Vahn stood stark still beyond the treeline observing the effects of the arrow he had just released towards the Chief. He was momentarily unable to comprehend the turn of events that had just taken place. Though he had originally planned to thin the goblin tribe down and make use of the explosive arrows later that day, he was caught off guard by how the encampment had responded. Instead of immediately charging towards his position, the goblins seemed to enter a chaotic state which only escalated with the…-

Awakening before dawn, Vahn began to put his plan into action. After putting a filter on the shop, he was able to find the item he was looking for. ’Small Explosive Charge’ (10 OP) Rank:(E) A component used in the making of anti-personnel mines developed by Russian Scientist Neil Vankhov. The explosive yield is equivalent to 10MJ (10 sticks of dynamite). Dissatisfied with the idea of simply kiting a few goblins out of the encampment, Vahn had come up with the idea of pestering them…

Vahn continued to scout the area around the marker for the goblins’ village/nest. Over the course of three days, he had killed a total of 18 goblins in various different camps causing an increase in their security. Camps began hosting groups of 5-7 goblins instead of the original three. Vahn began to worry as he hadn’t expected such a large goblin presence and his strategy to slowly whittle them down began to seem unfeasible Once, when he tried to penetrate through the outer perimeter and scout the…

Awakening the following day, Vahn immediately set about his final preparations for the quest. Since his inventory had long since been filled with miscellaneous items he had stored many of the non-perishable goods near the back of his home. As a means of self-preservation, he was now filling his inventory with the various traps and gadgets he had been using during his hunts. He figured he could lay them along the path and if things got dicey he would be able to safely retreat. There was also the…

Vahn spent the remainder of the evening preparing his items and equipment. Maintenance was something he regularly performed on his gear ever since he noticed the physical attack power going down when the blades began to dull. As an experiment, he used a whetstone he acquired from a ’record’ called Monster Hunter which allowed him to bring his equipment to maximum sharpness with just a few strokes. Unfortunately, the whetstones were single-use items but he managed to determine that they even worked…

After slaying his second goblin, Vahn began to train in earnest. As the days stretched into weeks, he slowly became acclimated to the lifestyle of a hunter. The meat and furs that he obtains were beginning to pile up in his inventory, and he had even successfully slain 37 goblins over the course of six months. Though many of the goblins he came across were alone, there was a time when he was fighting where three other goblins had arrived to assist the one he was already engaging. After suffering several…

Vahn awoke several hours later with a powerful lethargy settled within his body. It was similar to the times when he was very young and the Doctors had been a little too ambitious and had drawn too much blood from his body. "How long have I been asleep Sis?" (*It’s been 14 hours Vahn. It is currently 8:21 AM.*) "Fourteen hours..." sighed Vahn as he made an effort to stand. It took several tries, but eventually, he had managed to upright himself, albeit with a lot of difficulties. He put his hand…

(*As for the reason characters may not yet be in Orario, that is because you are presently three years from the start of events in the story!*) Vahn kept repeating the words over and over within his mind, unable to comprehend the revelation Sis just gave him. "Sis, why is it three years? I understand it’s my fault for not specifying a time, but what should I do now? I don’t know anything about this world outside of what I had read in the manga!" he shouted. (*Relax Vahn. ’The Path’…

After cementing his new-found conviction deep within his heart, Vahn continued inspecting the functions of the ’The Path’. He noticed there was a new function labeled ’View Affection’ which he remembered obtaining from the ’Beginner’s Package’. He decided to inquire about how it’s used later, but for not focused on his ’Inventory’ as suggested by Sis. Vahn stated within his mind, ’Display Inventory’ Within his view, he could see a grid that, after counting, contained 27 empty…
