Chapter 4: Monsters
A hare is running away with no pause desperate to save it's life,
One minute passed yet it didnt stop running,
Two minutes passed yet it refused to stop,
Three Minutes...
Four Minutes...
Five minutes...
Then when 10 minutes has passed,
it collapsed from exhaustion unable to continue running from it's Death.
Then Behind it, a Monster...
Body covered in smooth beetlelike exoskeleton, the armor extends through its whole body even covering It's eyes.
With such heavy armor it is supposed to slowed down to a degree but it didnt hinder it's movement.
Its body structure is thin, but it bore a tall stature, and razor sharp teeth, it walked in all fours and it's hands have a long wingspan...
The Monster began drooling from excitement.
All this time it has been hunting the hare for sport, it could've killed the hare whenever it wanted but the thrill of the hunt made it make the hare's torment last longer,
Then in one swipe it decapitated the hare's head at fast speeds,
The Monster caught the flying head of the dead hare and ate it,
After eating the head it began to drool more and immediately ate the rest of the hare's fresh body.
Atop the trees Nix was watching the event unfold...
Immense speed that generates power, and exoskeleton that gives it defense but it doesnt hold its agility and speed back...
Nix analyzed,
He then took out a Dagger he crafted out of a sharp ironlike ore he got from the cave, after doing durability tests on the ore back when he was on the cave he decided to make it into a weapon.
Nix then jumped down the tell tree causing a thud on the ground.
The Monster sensed this with it's advanced senses it then turned around and began making noises with deep frequency as a form of intimidation,
But Nix Stood tall ready to fight the creature...
Nix lunged at the beast before it even completed its growls causing it to be caught off guard and step at the side to avoid the attack at the last moment,
But Nix predicted this and with his insane agility side stepped and stabbed it at it neck where the two plates of exoskeleton exposed it's flesh in between.
The Monster Growled and immediately attempted to pounch at Nix,
At that moment the monster's mouth is wide open ready to chew Nix,
So Nix strengthened his posture and delivered a quick thrust inside the Monster's mouth and into the brain causing it to immediately die...
The aftermath of the Battle is Nix Bringing the Monster's corpse with him to the cave.
When he got back to the cave he then butchered the Monster is Precision, if he used a knife from earth he can only dream of cutting this Monster, but thanks to the Dagger he crafted it helped him Cleave and Dismantle it's flesh and exoskeleton.
"I can make an armor out of this, its so light yet durable..."
Nix commented
Nix then used the exoskeleton and shaped it into a forearm guard to act as a shield but also allows him to move efficiently,
As for the Monster's flesh Nix boiled it extremely caution of the side effects it might unleash upon him if he isn't careful.
Nix took a little bite and discovered that it also taste as good as the hares he's eaten, probably because the hares are part of their daily diet...
After the Day closes Nix stared at the bright skies looking at the stars, but he discovered something weird...
"Why is there is no moon in this planet especially with this planet's oppressive gravity...",
Many theories began formuating in his mind but he eventually stopped because currently, it's none of his concern right now...
right now he must survive...
