After entering the wood max unsheathed his sword and kept walking inwards about 20 minutes later he encountered a wolf it was grey in color and about 3ft in height and 4ft in length much like a normal wolf with one difference it had a white horn on its head.
Max used [Mind's eye skill] and the status of the wolf.
[Horned wolf
HP 150]
Max observed him and seemed happy as the wolf looked weaker then him so he didn't bother to do a sneak attack and walked forward from behind the tree.
The wolf noticed him and growled. Max took his stance he wasn't an expert but not totally clueless either he wasn't going to rush in and getting himself killed. The wolf took the initiative and suddenly pounced on max which surprised him and he countered but still got hit with a claw and his HP went down by 20 points.
As they both pushed back the wolf attacked again but this time max was ready as he didn't just stand on the spot n moved forward swinging his sword and hit the wolf first and it lost 30 HP points.
The wolf growled again getting angry n cautious this time and attacked again. This kept on going for a few minutes until max was the victor landing his final blow killing the wolf.

[Gained 100 exp]
Max saw the notification
"So I have to kill 2 more wolves to level up"
He thought.
His health was down by 40 points. He decided to invest his available points now that he had seen how the system worked. He put 5 points in strength and 3 points in vitality which increased and filled his HP, healing the little wounds he had already.
His HP was now 280/280 almost double of the wolf he killed. He moved next to the wolf and thought about moving the wolf corpse to his item bag but it didn't work. He bent down put his hand on it and then thought the same and this time it worked.
"So I have to touch the things to put in item bag, that's different from my own inventory." He thought.
After putting the wolf in his inventory he started walking further and encountered another wolf but took him down easily when he noticed his attack was now causing 45 damage instead of 30 so he figured 1 stat point in strength increased his attack power by 3 and then he took on another wolf and defeated him aswell.

[Level up]
[Gained new skill "Dash" after observing the horned wolf]
Max felt elated the as he realized the system wasn't just for show and probably made that skill after seeing the wolves pounce.
[Skill description "Dash"]
[Dash forward 5 meters and deliver a powerful strike at the end of the dash, dealing extra damage double to your agility points]
Mana cost=5MP/use
Cooldown-5 seconds
Max then invested his available point 10 points to his stats, 3 points in vitality, 3 points in agility, 2 points in strength, and 2 points in defense and opened his status.

After taking his loot Max went forward in the forest and encountered 2 wolves this time. They weren't looking at him, he took his chance and used his skill [Dash] and pierced a wolf with his sword and it caused 77 damage which was combination of (51 points from his STR and 26 points were double his agility). The wolves were shocked at a sudden attack and Max didn't let this chance go he pulled his sword out and swung quickly multiple times killing the first wolf and by the then the cooldown was over and max used [Dash] again, this time he was hit by the wolf in return as well but instead of losing 20HP like before he lost 16(which was due to investing 2 points in defense, which meant 1 stat point in defense negates 2 damage points so the wolves original attack power would be around 40 and he received 20 due to his 10 stat points in defense). Max finished off the second wolf quickly after that and gained 200 exp by killing these 2 wolves and took their corpses.
He went on killing what other wolves he found and killed 5 more making him level up once again. He killed 10 wolves today and put 5 in his system inventory and 5 in item box, he didn't want to show too much on his first day. He was walking out of the forest checking his status and saw he had 10AP, he didn't invest them just yet. It took him more than an hour of walking to leave the woods and another 30 minutes to reach the town.
The sun was still out he could have hunted more but he didn't want to do too much on his first day. He went directly to the guild building and walked up to the reception and was greeted by Cindy.
Cindy-"hey Max, you are back how was your day?"
Max-"hey Cindy, it was good I think I have some stuff I have to sell"
Cindy-"Your first hunt as an adventurer huh, come on to the other side."
She said as she pointed to the other desk and walked up there. "you can get the things out of you item box that you want to sell", she said and Max put his hand on the item box and thought about it and just like that 5 Horned wolf corpses just appeared on the ground. Cindy gasped a bit first. "You did that on your first day? You must have had experience before. Usually newbies can manage to kill one or two before they get tired." She said to him.
"Yeah I have experience hunting normal animals like boars and deer but this is my first monster" max replied.
"Let's see the horn from these wolfs is 20 coppers for one that would make 1 silver and for the rest of the stuff its 15 coppers that would be 75 coppers so your total comes to 1 silver and 75 copper coins which is pretty great for your first day."
Max was more than happy as he made the money he spent on the sword and more on top of it on his first day and that was just from the stuff he sold if he sold the remaining 5 wolves in his inventory he could make 3 silvers a day and he wanted to live a simple life even that was enough to him to hunt and relax everyday but that was not his plan. He wanted to explore this new world and the system he had. He wanted to grow stronger. He took his money from Cindy and went back to the tavern where he was staying and had good heavy meal before going to sleep.
The next morning he woke up and washed himself clean and got dressed and then checked his status while investing his AP, 4 points to INT, 4 point to AGI, 2 points to DEF

Max had noticed his tab was evolving now even showing MP and HP regeneration status. He went downstairs and talked to the barkeep and gave him another silver to stay two more nights. He could afford to give more but he wasn't sure how long he will stay in this town. Afterwards he left for the wood again and started hunting wolves in 3 hours he had hunted 10 wolves already which took him around 5 hours yesterday.
He was getting ready to move deeper when he heard a howl and realized he was now being targeted by this wolf which was bigger than the ones he had been hunting earlier. This one was around 5ft tall almost as tall as Max. It had dark red colored horn which was also a new thing. Max was alert and used [Mind's eye] immediately.
[Horned Fire Wolf]
[HP-500/500
MP-200/200]
Max was surprised to see a new kind of wolf also a bit sacred but excited at the same time. As they were both staring at each other waiting for the other to make a move. Max saw a small fire starting above the horn of the wolf which grew in a ball of fire around the size of basketball from earth and then it shot towards him. Max barely dogged and immediately used [Dash] and thrust his sword forward which caused 85 damage and the wolf howled in anger.
Max back away quickly not wanting to get caught in the monster's claws. As he was backing away the wolf pounced at him and his claw hit max's arm causing 52 damage to max and this time it hurt a bit but max could rest or take pause and just as the cooldown ended he was about to attack when another ball of fire came at him and he dogged again and used Dash again. The wolf tried to back away quickly but got struck again. Max kept this going and eventually killed the wolf. His Hp was down to 100 now as well but just then he got the notification.
[Ding]
[Gained 500 exp and leveled up]
He had 1000 exp already from killing wolfs earlier and this big one gave 500 directly making him level 5 and healing his MP and HP back to full. He put this big wolf in his system inventory and decided it was time to head back. He left the forest his clothes were torn in places so instead of going to guild first he went to small cloth shop and bought himself 3 pairs of simple clothes he already had and got dressed in one and put the other 2 in his inventory.
Max then walked to guild and showed his bounty and got 3 silver and 50 copper coins and paid 10 copper to the guild for the item bag for today's rent and went back to the tavern the people on the street and tavern saw him giving big smile and everyone thought he was happy with his day but he couldn't tell them the real reason.
Just as he entered his room he quickly opened his status tab.

He had gained a new skill which he assumed correctly that the system copied it from the Horned Fire wolf. He checked his new skill.

After checking his skill he was really happy and wanted to test it out as soon as possible but was quite tired after hunting today and went to sleep.
