"Yes, I also find translation feature very helpful. Most NPC will speak Japanese to me" Kai smiled. "I am sending you a friend request" He stated, opening his inventory and reading through the options before a small popup

"I am actually tracking boar... thornhide boar right now, see, there are tracks in the dirt" Kai used his spear to point at some prints in the dirt. "I think it is boar tracks, I may be wrong, but I think it look like a boar foot" Kai explained his reasoning. "I have not done many quest, I have been hunting and leveling my skills"

"Oh cool, that's the one I'm looking for." Phoenix grins, accepting. "ou've probably had more fun then me, only thing I did was avoid a snake bite and help a girl find her friend- no complaints about the last one, Iyonder seems like quite the person to know. Have you seen any of the others by chance? I thought I saw Griffin earlier, but....quests." He elects to follow Kai's lead, since he's already tracking what is probably the boar- might as well, since he's here.

*I have not been able to find the others* Kai frowned. *I miss our friends uh, where did you see Griffin? Maybe I can go to find him soon* Kais face had a dusted pink blush on it, and he began avoiding eye contact.

[Tracking skill unlocked]

Kai lead you through broken branches and footprints until you saw a small herd of three boars. It could be tricky killing them without injury due to their spike furred hides and sharp tusks.

"Remind me to get a bow later. I saw him in town. Dunno if it was him for sure though." PHoenix noticed the blush and filed that awy in the "lets not think about potentiall third-wheeling" file.

"Right, 3 against 2, how do we want to do this?" PHoenix murmured. "Brain, legs, or heart?"

*Maybe set trap, but I do not know how to do that perhaps something around can help, or maybe we just need speed* Kai examined his spear. He could definitely throw it and hit one, but then he may lose the spear.

*What do you have that we can use?* Kai asked you. *I only have the spear, some flowers, and the empty vial* he took his items out to display to you. *I am good at puzzle but this is not quite puzzle, puzzles are mean to be solved, this may not be* he sighed.

"Just some coins, my sword, and this cloak. Didnt get anything else. Maybe we can lure one away and kill it, then repat?" Phoenix suggest. "We cn almost definitely take one out with the two of us....probably."

*What if we hmm* Kai looked around for a few moments. *maybe we drop from tree above boars, if you do not mind damage to your cloak, perhaps we can use it as a net or blindfold of a kind* Kai suggested. *I do not have any climbing skill however, I am not confident in my ability* a sudden inspiration seemed to strike Kai.

*I have the idea! One of us climbs from above and jumps down to side of boar to scare them all in other direction, then other person kill them as they run past, or we use cloak to catch then kill them!* Kai explained

"That works. Only reason im keeping this is because it matches my whole vibe foe the most part."phoenix nods. "Ill do the climbing, make some use from that time i missed a group stream because I had to go on that family trip." He chuckled. "Heres the cloak, good luck and please dont die I am npt going baxk to the castle to find you in the crowds."

*Olay, thank you, I promise I will stay safe* Kai says as he heads off to the attacking point, waiting for you to make your move after using your cloak to set up part of the trap.

As you start making your way above the trees, a popup shows up in front of you

[Skill unlocked: Climbing]

[Level up (2) you have 1 point to allocate]

He put that skill point into strength, then finished climbing. Then he started mpving himself so he could drop right next to the baors ans cause a riot towards Kai's location.
