I was about to move to see if I wouldn't have better luck somewhere else when I saw caught a glimpse of mana signatures. I headed over and found a goblin hunting party of 3. Goblin level 5 120/120 HP, Goblin level 6 10/200 HP, Goblin level 5 60/100 HP. Well dang, the level 6 seems to be their tank with its large shield and leather armor, and the two damage dealers seem to be largely unhurt. The one with full health was equipped with a bow and the other a rather large club. Do I wait for another party, do I go for the level 6 first, do I go for the ranged, or do I go for that two-handed club user? My [SPD] and [AGI] is rather high in contrast my damage isn't all that great, better go for the bow user first and hope I can dodge the attacks of the other two. With that I turn off -Analyze-, I put on -Body Part Enhancement- on my legs as I prepare for them to get closer.
I jumped off the tree branch and did a flying kick towards the goblin with the bow, and hit it right on its head. I then hit the ground and rolled to decrease and fall damage I might have taken. As I get up I see that the bow user is knocked down and the other two have turned around with shocked expressions on their faces. I hurriedly rush to the bow user and ax-kicked its neck, and the body disappears. I move my -Body Part Enhancement- to my fists and add on -Wind Enchant-. As I do the club user takes a swing at me, and I barely had time to slide away. I go for a counter attack with a right straight, but I was blocked by the other goblin's shield and he went in for a hit with his club as he did. This time all I could do was block it with my other arm, which hurt like hell. I back off and as I do I see the other goblin coming in from my flank. He ran and as he went for a full overhead strike i stepped diagonally in towards him making him miss. This gave me a chance to deliver a body blow with a hook before I moved away. Luckily this time my -After Image- kicked in and the shield user hit it instead of me. As I moved away I see the two set themselves back-up waiting for me to strike. If that's how it is, I'll be happy to oblige, I ready mana to to push out my -Body Part Enhancement- I rush in towards the two-handed club user fully expecting the tank to block my way. I do a superman punch, and as expected the shield user was there. This time as I make contact with the shield I activate -Mana Blast-, this enhanced version with the wind element knocked back the shield user right into a tree. It's too bad it didn't hit the other one, but it looks like it got the wind knocked out of it. I see the two-handed club user rush at me, crap no time to focus.
"-After Image-" I said to activate my skill as I moved away. Just in time the goblin made a full charging downward swing right into the skill. As he does it gave me time to triple my intake of mana into my -Physical Enchant-. I jump over the goblin and kick it at the back of the head with a backwards kick and land in front of the shield user. I fake a jab at it's face making it raise its shield, as it does I deliver a low kick right at its ankles. The goblin was so caught of guard by the sudden move that it was swept off its feet. As soon as it hit the ground I stomped on where its privates should have been. Judging from it disappearing all of a sudden I think I hit the mark and that it was a male. I turn a little to see the last goblin advancing towards me. It looks like it has learned to not just charge in, as it advanced at a slower rate. As it got within striking distance it took a swing at me, I used the chance to close in to my striking distance. I used a palm strike on its shoulder in the direction it swung as I swept its feet in the opposite direction. This caused it to become unbalanced, and I quickly pinned it down with a knee and a hand and delivered a blow to the back of its head. It went and started to push itself up and I knew it was strong, so I used my hand not pinning it down to pull one one its arms to the side and towards me causing it to fall back down. As it fell I yelled out "-Right Fist Enhancement-" and as soon as it hit the ground delivered a blow to the back of his head and said "-Mana Blast-." Which did the trick, and I was awarded with its body disappearing, and some notifications. Before I do any celebrating though I tripled my -Physical Enchant- again with external mana and jumped onto a tree and swiftly climbed to what I felt was a safe height. I then checked my notifications.

"Experience?" As I question it a screen pops up with 35 EXP up top and the name of all my skills. It has an experience bar with a percentage at the end and a number at the bottom beside each skill. Whoa so this is how most people level their skills. Oh -Physical Enchant- is ready to level, I guess I should turn it off. As I do sure enough -Physical Enchant- levels to 28. It looks like it was a good idea to hunt here near the edge of the plains I definitely caught a hunting party on their way back. Now let's see I only took one hit let's check the damage I call up my HP bar and see 165/177. I took 12 damage with a blocked attack from a goblin that seemed to be mostly [END] and [AGI] with some [STR], I shudder to think what would have happened if I got hit by the other goblin who seemed to only have [STR] buffed up. Hmm should I change my equipment? I'll check it later, for now I'm too used to moving around in these. I guess I can continue my hunt as long as I pick my targets wisely.
