Chapter 116: Hunger Value

This time I didn't underestimate what she said, as I had recalled something like that in my profile. I hurried to open my profile to find a hunger value was indeed present there. I checked it and felt an ache in my stomach.

'Hunger value: 95

Hunger value when it reaches 100, player would die out of hunger.'

I looked at the value, then to the cake before I took it and put it into my mouth. It was really delicious, as it fragmented smoothly and disappeared once I swallowed it like it was so fragile. Its fragrance was so sweet that added a bonus to its amazing taste.

"You know I already have bread that could fill my hunger, however I would never trade this cake with the bread. Keep the second one to yourself then, I'm already full."

I wasn't done eating the first cake, so my voice came muffled, hard to understand. Aria laughed as she shook her head while saying:

"Just like my little sister, can you at least check your hunger value before boasting out like this?"

I stopped eating the cake for a moment before finishing it all in one go, then I opened my personal profile again with complete confidence that I almost crushed over what I just saw.

'Hunger value: 90

Hunger value when it reaches 100, player would die out of hunger.'

"How could this be right?!"

"Hahaha, do you really think that your art was without any price to pay? The hunger created by this art is different, so different than normal hunger. Eating this cake, which eliminated nearly five hundred hunger points, would only eliminate nearly five points only in your case, am I wrong?"

I looked to her, then to my personal profile, and lastly towards her cake. I didn't reject the cake this time, as I took it and ate it in three mouths only. its taste was really magical, I never ate something so sweet in my life before, however I was concerned by other matters now.

"How can I decrease the rise in my hunger value?"

"It's simple, you just need to stop using your art, rest for a day, and your hunger value would be partly restored," she simply replied.

Her words startled me, as I replied instantly:

"I have no luxury to do that."

"Then you must keep eating, but keep a track over your weight. You don't want to end up being like a small elephant, do you?" she replied with a chuckle that wasn't funny at all.

"What?!!"

"Here, I have nearly three more cakes to use, and from now on don't send your spears out randomly like this. You are using a mystical art for god sake; don't treat it like a cheap skill you found on the streets."

She took another two cakes for me to ear, and I didn't refuse them, however I hesitated as I looked to her seriously as I asked:

"Were you just kidding about gaining weight?"

She took the third cake out and sniffed its intoxicating fascinating aroma as she said:

"Who knows, it's my first time dealing with some mystical art user as careless as you. C'mon, eat up; we don't have the whole day to waste here. We didn't even approach your team."

She was right, we still didn't manage to crush these players yet, and there were much more coming after us. I sighed, life was cruel to me, I couldn't sit here and enjoy this delicious cake in peace. 

I put the two cakes one after another in my mouth, and as I was about to take the third one from her, Aria put the last cake into her mouth and chewed it slowly as she felt the magical taste of it.

"What?! It's my cake after all, shouldn't I try it out? This is thanks for saving your life?"

She said that with a muffled voice in response to my look at her, as I was really angry for not having that last cake. I took a deep breath as I checked my hunger value again.

'Hunger value: 80

Hunger value when it reaches 100, player would die out of hunger.'

I was now temporarily safe. The problem was that I depended entirely over my trick, or mystic art, to crush my way towards my isolated group. However I had to tread my way carefully for now.

I looked back towards my spear shadows, I had seventy shadows floating behind my back. I sighed, I hated to let them disappear, however I felt that I would be forced to do so if I didn't get any more cakes.

"Find a way and bring more cake to me," I said as I threw my spear towards the front, rejoining the battle again. Aria sneered as she replied:

"Who are you to command me like this? Go and get your own cakes girl, I was so generous to let you eat mine."

She moved fast before I could even open my mouth. I just glanced at her, as I complained of her attitude, why was she so protective over her cakes? It was just cakes.

I snapped my fingers as my spears came back again. This time I checked the hunger value before moving a finger, however the value was still fixed at number eighty. That was somehow reassuring, if it would increase each time I used my trick then it wouldn't be practical to depend totally on it.

I threw my spear again, and this time I targeted the most crowded place of players. I needed to conserve the usages of my trick to cause the most effective damage with the least amount of using.

I snapped my fingers again, and then I checked my hunger value again. It didn't increase, which made me more assured.

I began to be more daring, as I released my spears five times in a row, and then I checked my hunger value; however it was still fixed at the same number.

I then used my trick for twenty times without pause, and then my hunger value showed a change. Instead of eighty, it became eighty one.

That was better than I thought; I still had plenty of usages without any concern at my life. I recalled there was a drink, a juice, which Shin and the others bought just before we went to the dungeon.

I hoped they still got any remains of it. I knew it wasn't even compared with Aria's cakes; however it was much better than the bread.
