104. Gal leopard
When I woke up, my stomach felt strangely weird.

What Is that? Could it be the poison from that scorpion I ate yesterday is now running rampant in my stomach?

No, in that case it wouldn’t feel this superficial.

“Pefu! Pephu!”

…… This, it is the ball rabbit’s barking sound.

as It drifting in my mind, it seemed to be asking me for help.

Could the ball rabbit be being attacked by other monsters?

Where is it coming from?

When I look around I couldn’t see where the voice is coming from.
(A feeling of something desperate striking).

Below?
When I got up, I found the ball rabbit crawling out from a mountain sandy beside me.

The rabbit gasping for oxygen with ragged breaths, and finally after its breathing calms down, it begins to stares back at me with heavy eyes.

Apparently, my turned over while I was asleep, and it seems that I ended up squeezing the ball rabbit into the sandstone.

Also It seems that the that sand settled off my stomach onto the ground was the true obstacle not an enemy.
No, this is bad. This is was really bad.

I thought that the rabbit’s body is supposed to bounce back and even out like this type of thing never happened maybe my plan to level it up backfired.
It is acting very sullen and lethargic what is going on. In a panic I started to feed it a bit more cactus and that is when this guy’s usual expression returned.

This guy is terrible faker.

Is the only thing you having in your head eating?
After breakfast is over, the ball rabbit is placed on my head and we begin our walk through the desert.

For the time being I want to get the ball rabbit’s Lv Up and into its evaluated form. Also I want to eat meat and soon.

Hunting a beast type monster may be a good idea, because then it will raise the ball rabbit’s Lv killing two birds with one stone.

I’ll have the rabbit defeat an enemy at the top of D rank than that should bring this weak little ball rabbit up to its evolution all at once.
After a while I found a leopard sleeping.

Uh, it seems like the same guy who was being chased by that Great Centipede he must have gotten away after ran away with its full power. [T.N. Chapter 98]

There was unexpected accident this morning but Now I feel fortunate to have gotten up so early.
This distance …… 〖Status view〗 can be used?

This skill has been Leveled up so I wonder what will happen, all I can do my best so let’s do it.

【Normal Skill 〖Status Reading〗 Lv increased from 5 to 6. 】
Well, does this means that it isn’t distance dependent, or is it?

Well by saying anything this has become one of the skills that I rely on the most so anything is good with me.

If i did not have〖rolling〗 and 〖status reading〗 I could not tell how many times that i may have died already.
…… Well, is this to drangrous for the ball rabbit?

All its status are about 20 times that of the ball rabbit.

Whatever you do just try your best not get damaged. Actually if only take its attacks do you still get any experience?

I want to eat meat so I am going to kill it anyways.
I heard that you have good meat, so you are most certainly not going to get away from me.

Surely if it’s status of speed, I will lose easily, but if I use 〖rolling〗then I will win. That I am confident.

I am even willing my stake pride on that fact.

Well, well, so how do we approached it?

I won’t be able to catch up while carrying the ball rabbit, if the leopard tries to escape.

Even if I try getting only one strike off without killing it then it will definitely have plenty of time to get away from the rabbit 

I should probably drastically weaken it quickly with the first shot.
But when I get closer, the leopard seems like it will wake up.

It seems like the only good plan of attack now is by〖rolling〗rather than secretly approaching, but then I would have to leave the rabbit unprotected for a while.

Would you mind digging to become hidden?
Oh wait, that’s right.

It will be okay if I just put the ball rabbit in my mouth.

With that than the rabbit will be with me when I roll.

doing this will now will also make it will be easier to move from one point to the next now on.
I lower my head to let the ball rabbit down to the ground.

placing my face close to ball rabbit in order to s.n.a.t.c.h it up into my mouth. Our eyes met and the ball rabbit suddenly started to tremble as if it was having a nightmare.

it’s Face …… Or should I say it’s whole body started to shake back and forth, left to right, desperately protesting against me.

Could it be, that can you read my mind?

No, actually it seem to be given me more of a “Even if you eat me i am not really tasty!” kind of reaction.

It’s okay, because I am just putting you in my mouth. It is for safety, for safety.

I bring my face closer to the ball rabbit who is still raising its voice in protest.

Moving my neck according to the movement ball rabbit attempts at escape, I catch it in my maul.
“Pephoo !! Pefu !!”

…… I will get quite scolded for this later won’t I?

Well, now there is no choice but to do it. It is an all out charge for the sleeping leopard with〖rolling〗 it is then.

I round my body and head and roll straight towards the panther in a straight line.
The leopard awakens and almost instantly leaps up onto its feet.

By that time though I have already reached an extremely high speed.

This new terrain is tough, clear, flat ground with no obstacles; the opposite of the forest in which I was born, so it is the perfect conditions to make full use of〖rolling〗.

I can feel the ball rabbit is raging in my mouth, but it does not matter right now.

I can not stop it now in such a halfway state.
The panthers begins its escape, taking less than two seconds to get up and start sprinting shows this thing true speed.

but this was with my expection. I mean to lie down at such a noticeable place it must have a lot confidence in it’s skills.

Even if it is attack from large centipede, it will be able be able to easily escape with its speed.

To bad for you. You can’t run away from me!
The distance between me and the leopard decreases rapidly.

I thought that I would have catch up with the leopard in a matter of seconds, but I must be a little rustier than I thought.

Even if I am chasing him with only this much though, it seems that the panther on the other hand trying its best.

So it’s only a matter of time.

Hey fellow, what is wrong.
The rabbit is as usual freaking out in my mouth.

Please wait still for a while. Because you will get swallowed if you move around to much.
