"Quite a lot of frogs here."
From his vantage point from a branch, Aariv could see frogs after frogs hopping and croaking in the pond that Aariv had cleaned himself from blood in.
"Well, there are a lot of bugs here as well," Aariv said as he looked around. The part of the forest he was in was warm, moist, damp, and had a stream that led to a giant lake. There were a lot of bugs that flew around and floated in the water.
"However...Looking at their description..."
[Betelgeuse Pest Frog] - Lv. 10 - One of the few creatures that live in the Betelgeuse Forest that are not strong. They have little ways of attacking except for their long tongues and swarming and are quite weak. They are also common prey for other monsters. The only reason they are not extinct is that they reproduce rapidly. They are considered a pest by farmers because they destroy farm crops.

[Strength]: 5

"Yeah, that's why," Aariv said. He turns around and saw two reproducing. "Yep, definitely correct," He said deadpanning.
Aariv then focused on something that was in the frogs' description. "Betelgeuse Forest...Must be the forest I am in," Aariv said.
"'One of the few creatures that live in the Betelgeuse that are not strong' so mostly everything in here is super strong well, that I gathered when I saw all of that trolls, thunder cats, and chameleon pythons," He muttered.
He then heard croaking from beneath him.
Aariv looked down to see one of the frogs croaking and looking at him. He tries to use [Intimidate] to scare it away but the frog didn't even flinch.
"Croak," The frog croak. The frog then shot its tongue at Aariv.

Aariv grabbed the tongue with his foot causing the frog to struggle and panic. Griping the tongue tightly, his talons cut into the frog's tongue causing the frog to croak in pain and struggle even more.
He then fires an ice arrow at the frog, killing it.
Defeated [Betelgeuse Pest Frog] - Lv. 10
Experience is awarded.
"Don't know why it didn't run away when I use [Intimidate]?" Aariv said. "Must be a skill." He then took flight.
....
...
..
Aariv flew through the forest as he grabbed a forest fox and snapped its neck, killing it.
Defeated [Forest Fox] - Lv. 10
Experience is awarded.
[Incognita] - Lv. 3 ---> [Incognita] - Lv. 4
Aariv landed on a branch, still carrying the dead fox, and was about to eat it when he pauses. "Am I really gonna eat this raw?" He asks himself.
He didn't know if he wanted to use fire magic since he might burn down the forest, but after thinking about it, it seemed silly because he could just use water magic to put out the fire.
"Might as well try," Aariv said. He concentrated and imagined fire. Willing mana to form fire, he felt heat and opened his eyes. He saw a small fire dancing on his left wing.
[Fire Magic Mastery] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
[Fire Manipulation] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
[Mana Manipulation] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
"Great...Wait, [Mana Manipulation]?" Aariv said. Doubling checking, Aariv opens up his stats.

"...Why the hell didn't I get this skill when I managed to make ice out of mana?" Aariv asked. He shook his head. "It must have a requirement that I didn't get when I got my other magic skills."
....
...
..
Somewhere unreachable by mortals, a being sighs.
"That should do it," The being said. Closing a screen that was in front of them, the being looked down.
"Such a pain connecting the system with these reincarnators," The being said. "Missing stats, and missing skills, and it's so hard to fix these problems," They complain.
"Why couldn't they inform me when they decided to reincarnate people into our world," The being continue complaining.
"Oh, well."
..
...
....
Aariv lit a fire on the ground by putting bunches of branches together and then using fire magic to light it up.
He then began to use his talons to skin the fox.
[Skinning] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
Aariv began to move more skillfully. He finished skinning the fox and moved the pelt next to the skinned body.
[Skinning] - Lv. 1 ---> [Skinning] - Lv. 2
He then begins cooking the fox over the fire.
[Cooking] - Lv. 1 Acquired.
When Aariv felt that the fox was done cooking, he took the cooked fox away from the fire and began eating it.
[Cooking] - Lv. 1 ---> [Cooking] - Lv. 2
"Taste weird," Aariv said. He then spotted a horned rabbit and killed it.
He skinned and cooks it.
[Cooking] - Lv. 2 ---> [Cooking] - Lv. 3
[Skinning] - Lv. 2 ---> [Skinning] - Lv. 3
Eating the cooked rabbit, Aariv was a bit happier. Sighing contentedly Aariv happily bit into the rabbit. "I didn't know I miss eating cooked food," He said.
Aariv then realized something. "Aren't frogs said to taste like chicken?"
Turning around, he flew back towards the stream.
