Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Saber-toothed Tiger

A lot of them end up rotting in the soil, such a pity.

She picked some good ones, leaving the ones that weren't growing well or weren't very big to keep growing.

Even so, she picked enough to fill two big baskets, packed full, almost spilling out.

Good things are never too much. If there's too much to eat, it's alright; they can be dried and saved for winter.

After becoming a Beastman, her strength increased a lot.

She moved the basket full of mushrooms to the base of the chestnut tree, placing it with the basket already filled with supplies.

She counted and found there were eight baskets in total, each packed very full with today's harvest.

Though exhausted like a dog and sweating heavily, she was very happy inside.

Suddenly, her expression turned a bit strange, her stomach hurt, and she felt the urge to poop.

In her memory, the original host hadn't pooped for more than a week.

Since she crossed over, she still hadn't pooped.

She had never felt anything before and thought she might have been spared that function.

Now finally needing to poop, she was very happy inside.

Indeed, eating more fruit is beneficial.

She hurriedly picked a few broad leaves, found a place with water to wash them, then quickly dove into the nearby bushes to solve the problem on the spot.

She didn't take off her Beast Skin Skirt, but directly lifted it up and squatted down.

Looking at the few washed broad leaves in her hand, her mouth twitched.

There's no paper in the beast world; for pooping, one has to use leaves or wash with water directly.

Luna Sutton couldn't run around with a bare butt, so she had to make do with leaves.

Thinking she must quickly figure out how to make paper, she couldn't use leaves to wipe her butt forever, right?

What is the material for making paper again?

Seems like it's straw, right?

She remembered that straw must first be shredded and steamed to soften the material, then washed and pulped to disperse the fibers, followed by paper-making and drying processes to finally become paper.

However, finding straw is a problem; with straw, there would surely be rice.

Thinking about the white, fragrant rice, she couldn't help but tear up and felt very pitiful.

She didn't know where there was rice here and thought to ask some Beastmen later.

Luna Sutton was squatting and pooping, enjoying the relief when she suddenly felt movements rustling in the bushes, accompanied by a foul wind and a dangerous aura.

She instinctively glanced back, and that glance almost made her soul fly out.

A giant Saber-toothed Tiger somehow stood behind her, with its bloody mouth open, staring at her fiercely.

Clearly, it saw her as prey.

She turned pale with fear and couldn't bother wiping her butt, grabbed her Beast Skin Skirt and ran.

While running, she cursed angrily in her heart.

What kind of rotten luck is this? Meeting a Saber-toothed Tiger while pooping?

The Saber-toothed Tiger, seeing her run, tilted its head back and roared, "Roar..."

Then it leaped and swiftly chased after her.

"Oh my God, help..."

Luna Sutton ran while looking back, seeing the Saber-toothed Tiger relentlessly pursue her with a ferocious tiger face, she trembled in fright.

She knew she couldn't outrun the Saber-toothed Tiger, but she couldn't stop and wait to die.

Her power was currently only at level 1, good for simple detoxification or healing, but it couldn't be used to fight.

She could only run desperately forward.

The Saber-toothed Tiger was extremely fast and pursued relentlessly, about to catch up.

She was terrified, internally yelling: "System, save me."

The system's mouth twitched, its voice carrying sympathy but showed no intention of intervening, slowly saying, "Host, hold on a bit longer, the second male lead is nearby, has heard the commotion and is coming over, you won't die."

"What? Rhys Blackwood is here? Where?"

Luna Sutton's heart leapt with joy, looking around while fleeing, trying to spot Rhys Blackwood.

But after scanning around, she saw no sign of Rhys Blackwood.

Not even a snake.

Instead, the Saber-toothed Tiger chased close, its bloody mouth opening wide for a bite.

"Oh my God, help..."

She trembled with fear, to avoid being bitten to death, she quickly rolled into the nearby bushes, narrowly avoiding the fate of being bitten.

But by a stroke of bad luck, she rolled down the hill.

Before rolling down, her Beast Skin Skirt accidentally got caught on the Saber-toothed Tiger's teeth, tearing off.

Luna Sutton was still anxious and couldn't care about much, only focusing on protecting her head while rolling down.

The hill was quite steep; she kept rolling endlessly, feeling like she might roll to the edge of the world.

She rolled until dizzy, aching all over, and only stopped after what felt like ages.

Luckily, she lost the Saber-toothed Tiger.

Luna Sutton lay on the ground, panting heavily, feeling like her bones were about to fall apart, sore and uncomfortable.

She took a long time to catch her breath.

Several places on her body were scraped, some even bleeding, painful as hell.

She raised her hand to rub her bruised arms and legs, then touched her head.

At least her head was fine; otherwise, she would have been a goner.

Ignoring her injuries, still anxious, she sat up, scanning her surroundings, wondering where she was.

Soon she sensed something was wrong.

Where is her Beast Skin Skirt?

She looked down only to find herself stark naked, with nothing on.

The Beast Skin Skirt was gone!

Luna Sutton's expression changed, suddenly remembering it seemed to have been bitten off by the Saber-toothed Tiger before she rolled down the hill.

Her face turned dark; without the Beast Skin Skirt, did she have to return naked?

Being stark naked with nothing on, how could that be?

She wasn't into streaking.

Catching sight of nearby broad leaves, her eyes lit up.

She quickly picked some broad leaves back, choosing larger leaves, weaving a simple grass skirt with vines.

Though somewhat crude, at least it covered her body, avoiding the need for streaking.

Having done this, she used her power to heal herself.

After the cuts stopped bleeding, gradually healing, and not hurting as much anymore, she stopped.

Then, she started searching for a way back.

Just then, sounds of fighting came from the hillside, with repeated cries of a tiger.

"Roar..."

Accompanied by the hissing sound of a snake spitting its tongue.

The commotion was loud.

Luna Sutton's heart stirred, guessing it might be the Saber-toothed Tiger fighting with Rhys Blackwood who had arrived.

She cautiously climbed up the hill, intending to check out the situation.

The hill was steep but not hard to climb.

Soon she reached the top.

She hid in the bushes, peering through them, she saw a giant black python battling the Saber-toothed Tiger.

The black python's body was as thick as a barrel, its length reaching a staggering ten meters.

Its whole body surrounded by faint black mist, extremely mysterious.

The mist seemed corrosive, each time the Saber-toothed Tiger touched it, it let out a shrill wail, its hide corroding.

Clearly, that was Rhys Blackwood's power.

Luna Sutton hid in the bushes, watching the distant fight, shocked.

Though she knew Beastmen were powerful and their true forms formidable, it was her first time witnessing a Beastman fighting a fierce beast.

Especially against an extremely fierce Saber-toothed Tiger.

She kept her eyes glued to the combat zone, noticing the Saber-toothed Tiger, though fierce, seemed to be no match for Rhys Blackwood.

Soon, it was entangled by Rhys Blackwood's form, its giant tiger head tightly wrapped by the snake's body, coiling tighter, seeming to almost deform.
