I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Chapter 03 [The Mutilated Colorful Bird]

After robbing the hunter camp of the four members with the afro, a satisfied Yhaka returned to his lair with a large amount of loot. However, for Yhaka, who had tasted the sweetness of victory, this kind of thieving Guevara behavior would not stop there.

—————The little girl is running away————

In a parallel world on Earth, a girl is hugging her baby monster plushie and using a mouse to check the posts on the Monster Hunter game forum today.

"Hmm... what hilarious posts from netizens have appeared in the Monster Hunter Hunting Camp today?"

The girl's name is Ying Yingying, and she is a Monster Hunter Evolution player. Ever since the world's first fully virtual reality online game, Monster Hunter Evolution, Ying Yingying, as a player who loves playing the Monster Hunter series, naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Thanks to her luck and years of practiced hand speed, Ying Yingying managed to order one of the 10000 limited spots available in Asia on the official Monster Hunter Evolution website. Thus, Ying Yingying became one of the 10000 Monster Hunters in Asia to receive this opportunity.

"Hmm? The title of this post..."

Yingying looked at the post title, which read, "Damn it! My guild supply crate was stolen by some unknown person!", and continued reading to see the original poster's complaint.

1st Floor: Original Poster [White Whale's Blood]:

Today I went to the Ancient Forest to hunt the Great Jaggi. At first, I wasn't familiar with the virtual reality game controls and got hit a lot. My stamina bar (health bar in Monster Hunter games) kept dropping. Since I didn't have any healing items, I went back to camp to get some from the supply crate, only to find that everything in the crate had been looted! Holy crap!

2nd Floor: [The Boss with the Afro]:

"Hey? Bro, your camp got raided too? Our camp was raided a few days ago. We went to gather materials to make weapons and armor, and when we came back, we found everything was gone. Besides some whetstones, ammunition, and tents, there was nothing left. They even took what we had on the barbecue grill; all that was left were the bones that had been eaten. It's practically a mockery!"

3rd Floor [Qilin Fragments]:

[Last night, a streamer also had their supply crate stolen. The streamer was so angry that they contacted customer service, who said that supply crate theft is normal, since there are orc races like the Mewlings and the Felynes who steal from hunters in the Ancient Forest.]

4th floor [People who court death will die]:

The design is very eco-friendly; I tried jumping off the cliff yesterday and found I died.

5th Floor [Tesla, the Thunder King]:

[Newton was relieved and went back to his coffin, lol.]

Yingying, holding a baby venomous dragon plushie, looked at the post about the stolen camp supply boxes with some surprise and said:

"Is it really that ecologically accurate? But the hunting area of ​​the Ancient Forest seems to be around the town of Scylla. Maybe we should set off from Misty Village to the Ancient Forest another day. I remember there was a cat granny there."

..............................

Somewhere in an ancient forest.

Yuhaka was currently enjoying his spoils in his little nest, while Zelus looked at Yuhaka, who was curled up in his nest hugging a jar full of honey, with a speechless expression and said:

"Well, lately this little idiot has gotten a taste of success and has been stealing things from the hunter's camp..."

For this reason, Yuhaka has hardly hunted any large monsters. Last time, Yuhaka caught a giant boar king and made a whole roasted pig with a giant boar, but in the end, because the taste didn't suit Yuhaka's taste, he stopped hunting monsters like giant boars. Then, Yuhaka set his sights on the smaller but tastier mushroom pig.

As a result, the number of fungal pigs around Yhaka's lair has been reduced to a sparse number by Yhaka. However, Yhaka and Zelus don't care too much about this. The former has not yet realized that if he continues to eat like this, he will eat all the fungal pigs around him. The latter would be happy if Yhaka could eat all the fungal pigs and other monsters that can be used as food. In that case, Yhaka would have to go to the territory of other large monsters to hunt for food.

"That little idiot will definitely fight with the territory's owner, and then the little guy will surely get the essence of those large monsters!"

Zelus, with a knowing look on her face, said this, and at that moment, Yuhaka had already licked the jar of honey in his hand clean.

"Hmm...I'm done eating..."

Yuhaka tossed the pottery jar aside, stood up from his little nest, and stretched lazily on the ground. Then, Yuhaka checked his loot. Besides some seasonings, he had also gotten a few barbecue grills and some healing potions from the hunter camp. As for why Yuhaka had the healing potions, the answer was simple: because they contained honey and tasted pretty good.

After checking how much seasoning he had left, Yuhaka ran out of his nest to find ingredients to make delicious food.

"Pi-pi-pi-pi Pizza Pizza~! Pi-pi-pi-pi pizza, my favorite pizza~! Summer beach BBQ~!"

While holding a basket, Yuhaka sang a song from his memory of "knowledge." Although Yuhaka didn't know the meaning of the song, he knew there was something delicious in it, so he sang it.

Yuhaka is now heading to his designated fishing spot, where he sets up a fishing net he got from the hunter's camp. He then sets up another fishing net downstream of a small pond to prevent large fish from escaping. The net has a relatively large mesh, so there's no need to worry about the whole family ending up in Yuhaka's belly.

Fishing nets effectively trap large fish, keeping them in the pool, allowing them to gradually accumulate.

Meanwhile, Yuhaka was off harvesting his own fresh and succulent sashimi fish. Little did Yuhaka know that Zelus, behind him, was grinning wickedly at a prominent red dot on the system map. The red dot was precisely where Yuhaka had placed his fishing net.

"Looks like this is going to be interesting, hehehehe~~"

"Hmm?"

Yuhaka looked back at the system panel, which was trembling and emitting strange laughter, with a puzzled expression. Yuhaka was very confused because in her "knowledge," this was called "going crazy," but she had no idea why a hard board would go crazy.

............

"Σ(OwO!) Scared!"

At the spot where Yuhaka specifically catches fish, Yuhaka watched in shock as a brightly colored bird devoured the fish in his enclosure one by one!

"Fish! Youyou's fish!"

Hearing Yuhaka's exclamation, the brightly colored bird, also known as the "Cunning Star" and the "Dancer," looked at Yuhaka with a bewildered expression. The bird didn't understand what Yuhaka was saying, but it knew that the little guy in front of it was definitely here to steal its fish. Several other little rascals (puppy dragons) had done the same thing before.

"Hmph—Roar roar roar roar roar—!"

The colorful bird took a deep breath and then used its unique vocal organs to roar like a certain flying dragon, trying to scare away the little guy in front of it that was not as tall as itself.

Unfortunately, Yuhaka remained unmoved and even wanted to beat up the monster in front of him. After all, shouting at each other is a form of demonstration and provocation among monsters, even the primitive Zerg on Zerus do. Even the leaders of the talking primitive Zerg tribes would utter harsh words to provoke their opponents.

However, Yhaka, based on the clever and cunning Dehaka, would not abide by this "rule".

While the colorful bird was squawking, Yuhaka jumped up and kicked the bird's head, which looked like a giant trumpet.

"Yohaka Flying Kick!"

Zelus even provided voiceovers on the sidelines, because she was overjoyed. Yuhaka, who only knew how to eat mushroom pigs and fish all day, had finally started fighting with other creatures. Zelus hadn't received any new essences in far too long.

The essence provided by the fungal pigs and fish did not increase Yhaka's combat power at all. Zelus needed powerful essence to strengthen Yhaka so that he could survive in this world.

"Gah!?"

The colorful bird, its head twisted by Yuhaka's flying kick, let out a miserable cry. Yuhaka's recent feast of mushroom pigs and fish hadn't been for nothing. Given Yuhaka's enormous appetite, harvesting large amounts of biomass and pure essence was a very simple matter, and becoming stronger was also a very simple matter.

Of course, this is only the treatment in the initial stage; it becomes very difficult to upgrade in the middle and later stages.

After the flying kick, Yuhaka followed up with a spinning kick and then used his claws to grab the bird's slender neck and wrap it around the bird's back. Yuhaka then sat on the bird's back and used both hands to hold the bird's feathers to secure himself. His other two small hands kept plucking a bunch of feathers from the bird's body, and suddenly it was like a rain of flowers all around.

"Bad bird! Plucking feathers!"

"Gaaaaaahh ...

The colorful bird, whose feathers had been plucked by the little girl, let out a painful scream. After all, the pain of being plucked was considerable. The colorful bird kept jumping around and spinning in circles, trying to shake off the little guy on its back, but unfortunately, Yuhaka was stuck to the colorful bird's back like chewing gum and wouldn't budge.

"Bite the bad bird to death."

As he spoke, Yuhaka opened his small mouth and bit at the back of the bird's neck. Unfortunately, in his second form, Yuhaka's teeth were not very big or sharp, and he could not bite through the bird's neck feathers and skin, but he could still hurt the bird.

"Ah!"

During the struggle, the colorful bird accidentally stepped on a round stone, lost its balance, and fell to the ground. Yuhaka, who was behind the colorful bird, quickly jumped down as well, not wanting to fall down with it.

Taking this opportunity, the colorful bird quickly stood up from the ground. It turned its head to look behind it and saw that the feathers on its back were missing pieces here and there.

"Gah!?"

Seeing the miserable state of its feathers, the colorful bird was instantly enraged. Its beautiful feathers, which it had cared for every day, had been ruined like this. The colorful bird decided to teach that little bastard a lesson. Then, when the colorful bird turned around, it saw Yuhka transformed into its third form.

"???"

Seeing the Essence Raider form of Eohaka, which was even taller than itself, the bird was a little confused.

Where did that little brat go? And what's with this big guy? What should I do now?

Faced with Yuhaka, who was even bigger than itself, Cai Niao had a series of questions popping into its mind. However, Yuhaka wouldn't give Cai Niao time to think. Yuhaka crouched down slightly and then jumped and pounced on Cai Niao.

"Gah!?"

The sudden attack by Yuhaka startled the rainbow bird. Yuhaka swung its sharp claws at the rainbow bird, but it missed. The rainbow bird reacted as Yuhaka hopped over.

The colorful bird narrowly escaped Yuhaka's fatal attack, which frightened it so much that it immediately tried to call for reinforcements.

"Roar roar roar—caw caw caw—"

However, before the colorful bird could finish its cry, Yuhaka pounced and grabbed it by the neck. The bird's cry immediately turned into a terrible scream, like a duck being strangled...

click!

The bird's unpleasant chirping abruptly ceased as Yuhaka twisted its neck, making a snapping sound.

[Yohaka] killed [Rainbow Bird] and obtained [Rainbow Bird's Vocal Organ] Essence, 16 Pure Essence, and 15 Biomass.

Zelus, who was standing to the side, blinked as she looked at the system notification that popped up and said:

"The vocal organs of the rainbow bird? Although I really want to give Yuhaka a pair of wings, vocal organs are alright, right? Maybe Yuhaka can use this to lure other monsters for hunting?"

Meanwhile, Yuhaka threw down the broken neck of the colorful bird and tilted his head to look at the motionless corpse on the ground. Judging from the bird's appearance, it looked a bit like the duck from his memory of "knowledge". Then, various duck recipes flashed through Yuhaka's mind, making his mouth water.

Just as Yuhaka was about to drag the carcass of the colorful bird home to eat, a roar came from the sky.

"Roar roar roar roar roar—!"

A green figure descended from the sky and kicked Yuhaka, who was caught off guard, sending him flying into a small pool of water.

"Roar--!"

The green figure, stepping on the corpse of the rainbow bird, let out an angry roar, declaring its fury against anyone who dared to invade its territory. This green figure was none other than the Rathian, whom the hunters called the Queen of the Earth.

Chapter 04 [Screw you, Green Fire Dragon!]

"Roar?"

The female Rathian looked around in confusion. Just a short while ago, she had heard another "female Rathian" taunting her. Why couldn't she see it anymore?

Then, the female Rathalos saw the corpse of the rainbow bird at her feet and seemed to understand something, but what was that she had just kicked down?

The female Rathian looked at the small pool of water where only tiny splashes remained. She hadn't seen it so clearly when she kicked it in, but it did look somewhat like a Great Jaggi.

After the female Rathalos stared at the water's surface for several seconds and realized that the creature in the water hadn't come out, she lost interest. It was better to deal with the food at her feet first.

Soon, the female Rathalos grabbed the carcass of the colorful bird with both feet, flapped its wings, and took flight. After the female Rathalos flew away, a small head popped up from the small pool, looking at the female Rathalos with resentful eyes as it flew into the distance, and said:

"The big green bird... I'll remember that..."

Zelus, standing to the side, nodded in satisfaction at the vengeful Yuhaka and said:

"Hmm~ It's true that provoking Yuhaka a bit is good for this little guy. The vengeful little guy will definitely hunt for essences and then go looking for trouble with the female Rathian!"

However, if Ehaka were to go looking for trouble with the female Rathian, Zelus would definitely stop her. After all, that is a flying wyvern monster known as the "Queen of the Earth." Although it seems easy to defeat in the game, it's not so in reality.
