Later in the afternoon, Minerva decided to take a nap. I decided to use this opportunity to search the forest for my shrubs. She would probably have been pissed if she woke up and I wasn't back in the cave so I would make sure to come back very early. No more than an hour out. I had the agent acting as a timer for me.

So now, I was flying through the forest, testing how fast I could go and damn, was I fast. It was pretty cool zooming through the forest. So this was how fast I could go with 600 speed? Then how fast was Shiro? I think she had 200 plus speed. Was that average speed for humans? But that wasn't as fast this. Ah well.

How fast was Minerva? Her agility stats were crazy high. I wondered just how fast she could go, and how long it would take for me to reach that level of capability.

I decided to take a break and land somewhere on the ground so I could try using my special fusion of my perception skills. I once again tried the use of [Mana Perception], [Auto Mapping], [Goggles] and [Heat Sense]. This time, I managed to keep it up for 5 seconds before puking.

It would seem my [Mental Damage Resistance] was slowly growing stronger.

[You have acquired the skill [Mental Pain Resistance]]

I also acquired a new skill. But that was practically a ward against headaches and other stuff. I decided to ignore it and focus on my current predicament.

'Predicament? Hmm... can I call it that when I'm in literally no trouble at all?'

I avoided a stone that was thrown at my head easily.

'Hmm, should I say situation? No, that still seems like I have an issue.'

I took a step back avoiding a slash at my neck from a little green man holding a stone dagger. Obviously it was a random goblin. Its stats too weren't promising in the slightest. The goblin kept attacking me and I simply kept avoiding the stones being thrown at me.

'Um, maybe I shouldn't be thinking about this for now. It's actually getting annoying dealing with these retards.'

I was referring to the four goblins surrounding me. Two of them were hiding in the bushes, throwing rocks at me. One was attacking me up front, probably acting as a diversion and then there was the idiot trying to run away.

Normally I should be thinking that he was trying to go get more goblins to come aid, but with my new unique skill [Hunter], I could tell the character traits of various monster species and come up with the best simulated strategies to hunt them down and kill them.

What this meant was that, I could easily figure out the motives of my enemies by merely seeing them. Although I doubted that it would always be useful. According to the agent, there would certainly be moments where my guessed outcomes would fail especially on humans, since they sometimes acted out of the norm.

Still, this was a good skill. That timber wolf king had quite the ability on him. I guess that was how he managed to become the leader of a pack of crazy powerful bloodthirsty timber wolves. Ah, that's right. That damned black wolf! I would kill him.

In a rage, I cut down the annoying goblin in front of me by accident.

'Oops... ah well. I guess you guys are next.'

I glared at them through the bushes. They must have noticed because they ran like hell. I flew at them, but I didn't kill them. I simply kicked them to trees. They wouldn't get up so quickly from that. I changed my attention to the other goblin who was running away at first. He had stopped and was walking this way.

'Huh? What's he planning?'

He came out of the bushes. My [Hunter] skill wasn't working anymore, because this wasn't normal in the slightest. His hands were raised as he came out with a nervous smile on his face.
