Chapter 15 - 15: [Blood Gaze!]
"Shit!" I woke up with a sudden jerk as I looked at the outer field in front of me. Gazing at the sleeping players, I observed Mark, Alice and everyone else who was in deep sleep. And looking at the dark sky, I sighed in relief as not much time had passed.
Looking at the tutorial time, exactly 4 hours have passed since I blacked out. Best guess was the effect of that potion.
On that note

…
'Better,' I thought before looking at the increased stats. With this, I should be able to build a proper foundation of my mana based skills. Maybe I can accustom my [Gift] along with Mana?
"Now where could he be?" I looked around for the white goblin, wondering where he was.
"What are you?"
"?!!"
Alarming, I hurriedly moved a few steps forward. And turning around, I almost took my weapon out before I saw that white goblin looking at me with his eyes narrowed.
"That scared me," I breathed in relief as I looked at him. He was still staring at me with that narrowed gaze, his eyes didn't look pleased at all.
"Can you let me use the [Shop!] now?" I asked, trying to ignore that stare of his, while he just mumbled,' monster' under his breath before opening the [Shop] for me. It was ironic hearing that from him, so I just shrugged my shoulders before looking through the skill present there.
I needed a skill that could help me kill a lot of mobs at once. Something that would increase the hunting efficiency.
'Hmmm… will this work?' I thought as I looked at a particular skill.

It was a utility debuff skill that went well with my [Perception!]. If I take my future [Gift!] into account… The synergy was good. Infact, given the right situation, it was kind of broken.
"All right, let's go with it," I thought as I bought the skill, before wondering if I should buy something else as well? Though everything else that I wanted was costly, so I left it for until tomorrow when I will have enough points.
Standing up, I then stretched a little and began walking outside the area. It was still an hour till dawn, so the darkness still remained. Even the moon was gone, making it pitch black dark. If not for the [Perception!], I would have been pretty much blinded.
"Hmmm?"
At a distance, I saw someone walking towards me, or to be precise, the safe zone. He was the same guy that had scored the most points in the second tutorial. If I remember correctly, his name was Alex, wasn't it? Though why was he alone?
'Didn't he go with an entire group with him?' I thought as I observed Alex, covered in blood. As he walked closer, he paused to look at me. His eyes glowed a little red, while he looked at me. But after a few seconds he walked past me without saying anything.
'Hmmm? Strange,' I thought as I turned back, and saw him walking until he reached the gate, paused and then spoke,
"Don't underestimate the monsters here."
"Sure," I answered as I knew it the first time when I battled with that goblin warrior.
Alex then continued walking, while I also began moving towards the direction where he had come from. My eyes observed the few goblins that were walking around at a distance of about 500 meters, and I sighed before moving faster.
[Agility: 7.2 -> 9.2!]
Given the situation, I decided that if I wanted to hunt faster, I needed my agility stat up more than anything.
-Whoosh!
My speed increased, as I kept running towards those monsters. And at my fastest speed, I covered the 500 meter distance in less than a minute. And as I reached them…
[Blood Gaze!]
[You have killed an F-Grade Monster: Goblin!]
[You have killed an F-Grade Monster: Goblin!]
[You have killed an F-Grade Monster: Goblin!]

The hunt began as I killed the first 4 goblins and moved towards the next.
[You have killed an F-Grade Monster: Goblin!]
[You have killed an…!]
[You have…]
The notification rang as I kept killing them, and within a minute, I killed 8 Goblins.
I paused, took a deep breath, before I
