Chapter 438 Eating a beast It did not take long for them to head to Gary’s request and give him a room. The area they were in was large, wherever it was, and there were plenty of rooms in the place. The only problem was, that all of the rooms had a camera system set up in them. On the large table laid out, was the beast’s body. Using his sharp claws gGary had split it up to make it easier to consume for himself, but he couldn't help but look in the corner of the room at the camera. ‘Humfree said they turned them off, and that red blinky thing is no longer blinking.’ Gary thought. On top of that for extra safety measures they had placed an enclosed cap on the cameras. So that way, even if they were on, they would see nothing but darkness. In the end, Gary had to check the entire room, just in case they had hidden a camera anywhere but he could find nothing. Before inspecting the room, Gary also noticed that just like the NIRV employee said, its body looked to already be disintegrating. A part of its leg, the skin of it, was turning slightly ashey. Small particles breaking off and seemingly disappearing to be part of the air. ‘That guy said it was because they moved the crystal out of the body. Does that mean the crystal is what is needed to create Altered DNA. I guess that's why they don’t care about the body so much. ‘It makes me wonder, if I eat this now, will I still gain stat points even without it having the crystal inside it?’ In the end, there was only one way to find out. Although Gary was now used to eating such things, animals and more, most of the time he had done so out of desperation. There was an instinct in him, or the situation itself would force him to do such things, but there was none of that now. He needed to willingly eat the ‘food’ in front of him. Picking it up, Gary started off with the leg because it seemed like the easiest part. He had begun his challenge. The whole thing had taken a while since there was a lot of the beast, but what Gary was more impressed by was his own stomach. Even after consuming enough meat to bring his energy back to 300, he could still keep going. On top of that, after around two-thirds of the beast was eaten, Gary had received a message from his system. [The beast that you have defeated has been consumed] [You have received the following stats] [+1 Strength] Gary was somewhat waiting for more messages to come, but they never did after that, which left him seriously disappointed. ‘Just one stat point, but I got so many for the other Altered. Is it because the beast is considered a weak one…or maybe it has something to do with the crystal that left its body.’ After overcoming the disappointment, Gary thought about it for a while and thought it was still a good outcome overall. For one, he had gained a single stat point as an extra, something only usually gained from, levelling up. On top of that, he gained exp and a bonus exp reward for killing a beast for the first time. From the way the professors had explained things, he was sure that in the future the beasts would get stronger and stronger. ‘I guess I should wait here for a while, there are still parts of the beast's body left inside, but it's disintegrating even now. If I wait for it to completely disappear, then I can explain that's just what happened.’ While in the room, Gary saw it as a chance to check out his current stats. Gary Grade: Bishop Class: Warrior Level 23 [Health 250] [Energy 300] [Exp 1788/11564] [Strength 36] [Dexterity 26] [Endurance 32] The recent point was added in strength, and due to the exp gained from killing the beast, Gary had levelled up twice bringing him closer to his 25 goal. What this did mean though, was he also had two stat points to use as well. At the same time, he still had two pawn points but was saving them for use later on, if they were needed. ‘Originally I was thinking about increasing my energy pool, but I'm starting to see that as a problem after experiencing the full moon. The more energy I have, the longer I can go without food and starve myself, but it just seems to all add up to this aggressive side in me that I can;t control. ‘A large energy pool requires a lot to eat to fill it up, and that means, it will be harder to get used to on the day of the full moon. I imagine as well, the Werewolf side of me, if it goes crazy, will keep eating until at least until its energy is full, maybe beyond.’ Thinking of other ways to use his points, he thought back to the fight with Ryan and how well it had worked out. Sticking to his original plan, he decided it was best for him to add his points to endurance. [Endurance 34] His endurance was linked to his health, and with tougher opponents and now beasts to go up against, it would be better for hits against him to take less damage. ‘Man in some ways, I wish I could fight Ryan again, and fight him properly. Then I could show off in front of Xin, and everything would work out. I mean I would still have to figure out the whole werewolf thing, but we can be a powerhouse fighting couple or something.” Waiting a bit longer, the entire body of the beast had now disappeared. Leaving the room, Gary had planned to find Crowley to get out of here and get a good night's rest. As soon as he opened the door and left the room though, there was a person standing right in front of him. “Hello.” James, the NIRV employee said with a smile. ***** My Werewolf System Webtoon is out!
