nIan kept capturing one Wolf after another. However, to his surprise, a monster better than the Nimble

nWolf, one of the eight Wolves he had captured at first, was very hard to find.

n– Friendship stat has been increased by 1 after repeatedly capturing successfully.

nHe worked so much that even the Friendship stat rose.

nAfter about five hours of capturing Wolves, a new message came up as if the system acknowledged

nIan’s endeavor.

n– You have obtained the Wolf Expert title by capturing many wolves.

n– With the Wolf Expert title, from now on, it will be easier to gain Friendship when capturing Wolves.

n– With the Wolf Expert title, from now on, you can recognize good Wolves without capturing them

nfirst.

nIan’s face brightened considering that the ability to recognize good Wolves without capturing them

nwould help him greatly now.

n‘Why doesn’t it work on all monsters?’ Ian silently complained, however, he knew that he was

ndemanding for too much.

n“Let’s try to make use of the title…”

nIan then stared at the Wolves roaming around the field. Soon, he spotted one of them whose name

nwas faintly glowing in gold.

n‘This one!’

nHe didn’t hesitate to go near it. He was able to capture it easily just as he had been doing for the past

nfew hours. Next, he checked its statistics window.

nA normal Wolf that lives on the grassland. It has quick feet and sharp teeth.

n…

nJust as Ian had expected, it was a good Wolf with a modified name.

nIan grinned widely.

n“A wolf that has an Attack Force of 30!”

nCompared to inferior ones with bad adjectives like ‘weak’ or ‘feeble’, it was almost 1.5 times stronger.

nHowever, he had already caught some wolves with similar skills previously, therefore, he was not

ngoing to stop before capturing one that had far greater abilities.

nThen, Ian spotted a Wolf whose name glowed brightly in gold.

n“Ohhh!” Ian gave an exclamation.

nHe quickly run toward it for fear that someone else would kill it before Ian could catch it.

nKrrrr-!

nSeeing Ian coming, the Wolf growled.

n“Ha, you’re just going to stare at me?”

nIan sneered at it. The Wolf didn’t like his attitude and lunged at him right away. Ian could feel that it

nwas different from other Wolves. It was a lot faster and stronger.

nPak-! Papak-!

nNevertheless, the Wolf had to quickly surrender to Ian’s magnificent stats.

n“Capture!”

n– You have succeeded in capturing a Wolf.

nIan held his breath as he opened the Wolf’s statistics window.

nIt was as thrilling as getting a rare item.

nWolf

nLv: 11

nType: wild beast

nRank: Regular

nCharacter: brave

nEvolution possible

nAttack Force: 37

nDefense Force: 15

nSpeed: 31

nIntelligence: 19

nA normal Wolf that lives on the grassland. It has quick feet and sharp teeth.

nIan’s eyes widened as he checked the statistics window.

nThe Wolf’s stats were amazing enough, however, that was not what surprised Ian.

n‘Evolution possible? Evolution possible!?’

nIan couldn’t believe it, he had to check again and again. However, the words ‘Evolution possible’ were

nclearly written there.

n“This is great!”

nThere was something weird as well.

n‘Why does he not have an adjective in front of its name? Is it because his stats are all equally good?’

nIan stopped hunting right away and released all the other Wolves. Of course, there might be a better

nWolf out there, however, the one he had just captured seemed good enough to be raised.

nIan was excited, “Good. Now, let’s go hunting!”

nIan was originally going to capture all kinds of monsters till he reached his Leadership’s limit and then

nstart hunting, however, he changed his mind. This is because Kain had told him that the EP earned by

nhunting was also distributed to the monsters that took part in the hunting. It was similar to party

nhunting.

nIan wanted to make the Wolf grow up fast. Therefore, he moved to hunt right away.

nHe went to the Hill of Kalimpus, the ‘Fox Cave’, where he had hunted a little while ago. He wanted to

ngo to a higher-level hunting ground, however, the Wolf’s level was too low. Therefore, he decided on

ngrinding at the Hill of Kalimpus.

nIan then left the Kairon Basin with light feet.

n…

nAfter reaching the Hill of Kalimpus, Ian didn’t summon his Wolf right away. Currently, there were very

nfew Summoners. It would be troublesome if others found out that there was a Summoner that could

nalready hunt at a Lv.25 hunting ground like the Fox Cave.

nTherefore, on the outside, Ian looked more like an Archer.

nAs he was about to enter the hunting ground, a man spoke to him, “Hi, would you like to hunt with us?

nWe need a long-range attacker.”

nHowever, Ian didn’t want to do any party hunting, therefore, he politely refused, “No, sorry. I must

ncomplete the quest on my own.”

n“Oh, I see.”

nIan then quickly moved went in deep into the hunting ground where he immediately summoned the

nWolf.

n“Summon!”

nFollowed by a white light, the Wolf appeared in front of him.

n– You summoned the Wolf for the first time. You can give it a name.

n‘A name? Should I just call it Wolf?’

nIan thought about it for a while and decided on using ‘Ly’. The name didn’t have any big meanings

nbehind it, in fact, it just represented the first two letters of Lycanthrope, another word for werewolf.

n“Ly, your name will be Ly.”

nThe wolf liked that name. In fact, he started to sweetly growl and rub his head against Ian’s legs.

n– Ly is pleased with the name received.

n– Friendship with Ly has risen. Ly’s Loyalty goes up by 5.

nIan got confused at reading this.

n‘There’s a stat called Loyalty?’

nHe then checked the Wolf’s statistics window and nodded.

n‘It is on the detailed statistics window.’

nIn a character’s statistics window, there was also a ‘detailed statistics window’. It showed about a

ndozen statistics like specific Attack Power, Defense Power, Fatal Blow Probability and the Resistance

nto all kinds of elements. A pet had a similar statistics window as well.

n‘The current Loyalty is at 70%. I guess 100% is the max…’

nIan then used the only battle active skill he had for hunting.

n“Blessing of the Wind!”

n– You used Blessing of the Wind. Speed has risen by 37%. Ly’s speed has risen by 37%.

nLy’s speed rose along with Jinsung’s.

n‘It’s a nice skill.’

nIan then lifted his bow and aimed at a Red Fox right in front of him.
