finding a metal bat is pretty easy, you locate one at a sports equipment store
you also grab a long cooking knife as a backup weapon
You inventory both items, which also lets you equip them at any moment
Inventory was another power that you haven't explored much thus far. But it was pretty simple. You can store stuff in it as long as its solid and small enough. You can also equip things right from your inventory.
That night, you try going hollow hunting again. You flare your rieatsu to attract more hollows. Eventually, another one shows up.
You observe it as it approaches you
Hollow
Level 5
STR 20
VIT 10
MAG 7
INT 1
END 15
AGI 10
Shit, this thing is pretty strong. You equip your weapon and brace yourself as it charges you.
You fire a quick mana bullet into its gaping maw as it tries to bite you. The thing resembles an overgrown monkey. It recoils in pain.
But then it punches you pretty hard in the chest
-40 hp
You quickly get up as adrelanin dulls the pain of the blow, and fire off a few more shots of mana bullets.
The hollow catches up to you again and tries to punch you. This time, you hit it as hard as you can across its skull while willing your
mana to strengthen you attack.
New skill created!
Power attack lvl 1
Increases the strength of your attack by 25%
Cost: 10 mana
You ignore the notification for now as you attack the hollow again while its down. It grabs your wrist and tries to wrestle with you, and its clearly much stronger than you. But thankfully, you have a backup weapon. You use the knwife in your other arm to stab it repeatedly in the eye.
Level up!
Level up!
Huh, you leveled up twwice from that. This one was much stronger than the last one. You quickly suppress your rieatsu to prevent others from sneaking up on you.
But you are almost dead, and that hollow was stronger than it looked. Its possible that for spiritual beings, there magic stat also increases their strength, because otherwise it shouldn't have been able to overpower you.
You now have 15 unspent stat points
You pick up the cash the hollow dropped, 500 this time, and head back home.
Sleeping in your bed heals you to full health again, but now you consider what you should do next
