Upon examining the s closely, Daisuke realized that Zephyr had an automatic revival feature upoh. However, there was a catch: the time it took for the e to revive increased by twenty-four hours for every ten levels he gained. Currently at level two, Zephyr revived after twenty-four hours, but at level twenty, it would take forty-eight hours. Level thirty would require seventy-two hours, and so on.
The other option for reviving Zephyr was to feed him Diviract. However, one question remained unanswered.
Did the System assign him as my panion in the event that I bee a pyer?
Daisuke’s eyes softened as he set aside his p and redirected his attention to the summon button at the bottom of the s. With a gentle click, a swirling tower of golden light materialized, casting a radiant glow that outshohe warm sunlight filtering through the leaves.
From within the luminous vortex emerged Zephyr, his grin urained and his tail wagging with etion. With a cheerful leap, he pouoward Daisuke, who tumbled backward against the tree, his heart overflowing with happiness.
Zephyr’s eyes sparkled with delight as he showered Daisuke with joyful licks, veying his boundless excitement. And at his endearing whine, Daisuke hung his head, his eyes cealed by fringes of silver hair.
“Jeez—you could’ve mentioned you were some kind of majestic wolf,” Daisuke murmured, a hint of petun his voice as a rueful smile tugged at his lips. “I spent all this time thinking you were just some stray mutt.”
“Rawrwu~”
“…I’m sorry,” he gritted his teeth, his body tense. “Because of my weakness, I ended up letting you get hurt. I… I should’ve found some way to save—”
“Kiyuu,” Zephyr chimed, as if in protest.
Daisuke’s expression hardened, devoid of any traotion. “...I would uand,” he began, his voice chillingly cold, “if you didn’t want to stick around me anymore. You’d actually be better off on your own.”
Zephyr licked his cheek, giving his answer.
Daisuke trembled slightly. “…Just so you know, I pn to get revenge against those guys… so there’s a ight get hurt again.”
“Arf!”
Daisuke’s wet eyes could finally be seen, aousled the e’s head in pyful affe. “It’s a pleasure to have you oeam, O’ Mighty Divi.”

[Horned Rabbit | Lvl 1 | General]
Daisuke’s fingers ched firmly around the hilt of his neon as he crouched amidst the dense shrubbery. Through bdes of grass, he watched his vigint prey. The crimson eyes of a Horned Rabbit swept across its surroundings as it grazed in an open field.
Disregarding the blue and yellow hues representing Mana and Stamina, Daisuke’s gaze fixed upon the red horizontal li the top left er of his field of vision. The thin strip of graphics was his ?HP bar?—a visual representation of his life force.
He hadn’t rested until it was entirely full, so there was roughly fifteen pert missing. Or, to be more specific, he was eighty-five pert closer to a grim fate.
He had always feared death, but a visual rendering that was stantly reminding him of how close he stood to the precipice was very unnerving.
“Rawrwu.”
Zephyr’s soft chime stirred him from his thoughts, and in an instant, Daisuke’s world transformed, butterscotch eyes bzing with iy. His eyes locked onto the Horned Rabbit, and in that electrifying moment, his muscles tightened and coiled like springs. He inhaled deeply, each breath filling his veins with a surge of oxygen.
With an explosive burst of power, he propelled himself forward, closing the distao his prey in the blink of ahe Horned Rabbit, sensing impending doom, desperately tried to evade, but it was no match for the relentless predator closing in.
Daisuke’s bone icepick traced a deadly arc through the air, carving a long, ivory lio the creature’s torso as it attempted to leap to safety.
[Critical]
[98 damage dealt.]
A pained squeak escaped the beast, but Daisuke’s determination was unyielding. With impressive dexterity—a refle of his enhaats—he deftly altered the course of his on mid-strike, driving the monster forcefully into the unfiving ground.
WHAM!
[12 damage dealt.]
The impact resohrough the earth, a testament to Daisuke’s newfound strength and skill. And the moilled beh his on, its white coat stained crimson with blood.
DING!

[22.3 Experience Points gained.]
[Horned Rabbit Hide x2 has been acquired.]
[Zephyr gained 7.8 Experience Points.]
[Zephyr’s level has risen!]
[Zephyr has learnt the skill ?Ember?.]
Daisuke’s head snapped up, his eyes log onto yet another Horned Rabbit lurking in the distahe earth dented as he kicked off the ground, his on raised and poised, glinting with an aura of deadly purpose.
Levels owo, five—Daisuke’s relentless hunt unfolded as he pursued the Horned Rabbit, Malevocroak, and Forest Imp. However, instead of a reenat of his previous enters where traps were used to incapacitate the monsters, this time he hurled himself into the fray with the ferocity of a true warrior.
PLOW!
Shrill cries, crimson tides, lifeless eyes—Daisuke maneuvered around the monsters in a blur, his on slig through the air, staving through skin and flesh, plunging the fiends into oblivion.
“Arf~”
As Daisuke slowly pulled his on from the neck of a Forest Imp, Zephyr leaped from the fines of his clothes. No sooner had he he e’s telling expression than he heard the heavy footsteps of a nearby beast.
DUUM! DUUM! DUUM!
Just a few ho, his first impulse would have been to flee or find cover. But now, everything was different; now, he yer. Unlog his Status Window had emancipated him from a life of guaranteed powerlessness and sorrow.
Now, he hungered for power—enough power to safeguard himself and his loved oo achieve that goal, he couldn’t afford to shrink from every threat. While others saw peril, Daisuke saw potential.
cealed within the dehicket, Daisuke moved stealthily, keeping close to the earth as he inched closer to the source of the footsteps.
There, through the curtain of foliage, he caught sight of a familiar morudging through the forest. And his eyes narrowed, gleaning with purpose.
“Looks like we’ve located the first target of our revenge.”
“Rawrwu~”
