Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 19 Acquiring A New Skill
-----
CLASH!
I intercepted the wolf with my leg, kicking it away and making sure to hit its eyes, a good weak spot.
"Awooo…!"
The wolf gave a pitiful groan as the pain of having its eyes damaged made it dizzy. Perfect and ideal situation for me to attack now.
I threw away the corpse stuck to my Blood Claws and reached this wolf in an instant, using my strength and speed, I tried to slice its head with a single and strong slashing swing of my claws!
SLASH!
However, the wolf managed to evade in time and then jumped onto me, throwing my small body to the ground.
Boom!
"GRAAAHH! GRARWR!"
The beast began to gnash my blood claws with its furious bites, its saliva and horrid breath began to fill my face, what an unsettling beast..!
Just as I was about to kick it, Eleanora showed up and kicked it for me with a swift movement of her legs. Despite being in her energy-saving form, her stats were still almost the same, her strength was similar to mine, so she was able to do as much without even spending mana.
"Awooo!"
The wolf cried in pain as it fell to the floor, rolling around. It looked at us with horror. I noticed the wolves Eleanora was sent to kill were already dead on the floor, with agonizing expressions on their faces.
"As your spirit, let me kill this one for you, Blake." Said Eleanora, rushing towards the wolf like a flash of crimson-red essence, and grasping the weakened wolf's neck, twisting it with superhuman strength.
Crack…!
"Awoo…!"
The beast gave a very last cry and died as it had its neck twisted the other way around… I noticed that Elenora had snacked on some blood from the wolves she killed. Her Half-Vampire Skill gave her a boost to her stats temporarily, usually lasting a minute.

I had already stood up and petted Eleanora's head, her hair was soft and silky.
"Good job." I said.
Eleanora suddenly blushed a bit while leaving the wolf's corpse on the floor, her sadistic smile was changed into one of cute embarrassment.
"I-I am just doing my job." She said with a warm smile.
"I might have almost gotten bitten for real there… Ah, they broke." I sighed, the Blood Claws broke into pieces and dissipated into blood essence.
"Blood Claws are strong but they're quite frail." Sighed Eleanora.
"Can you make some using Blood Edge?" I wondered.
"Yes! I can. But it takes its time." Said Eleanora, as she spent 2 Mana to make the same as I did.
"I see… I had replaced Qi with Mana as well just now to make my claws. I didn't have much Qi to waste but now… I think I am full once more." I said. I had already drained the blood of the wolves we just hunted, and extracted their spirit orbs, saving them in the leather bag I brought.
I continued hunting whatever we found. Mostly we found either Demon Rats, which were giant rats the size of cats, and a few more wolves before it was getting too late already.
I had practiced my Throwing Technique and tried doing a variety of other actions to trigger the acquisition of more Skills, nothing seemed to work until I suddenly acquired something called [Acrobatics] due to my swift movements.

With that said and done, we decided to move back to my house. I watched as my own Status, the stats had suddenly increased without me realizing it, even if my level didn't go up.
Is this the effects of my new Physique and the constant usage of Qi? The physique slowly permanently increases the power of the body after all, so that's possible.

I had tested if it was due to absorbing the Spirit Orb by absorbing another one, and suddenly realized Intelligence went up by 1. But nothing else increased.
Does consuming spirit orbs increase my stats randomly by 1 or 2? It is interesting… I suppose it is because I am cultivating my spirit orb at the same time, right? It must be that.
But at the same time I also got some bonuses from the physique, even if it doesn't show as a skill or something.
If I consume the pile of Spirit Orbs, I got, I could enhance my stats even more…
But I also want to start saving money.
Ugh.
Maybe I could just sell the wolf pelt and meat? Maybe I could get something out of it.
Prioritizing my strength should be my goal, hoarding capital can wait a bit more, I suppose.
At least I will continue consuming and absorbing spirit orbs until I begin seeing no more changes into my stats, after that, I will hoard them and sell them off.
When I came back home, I left all the corpses of the wolves, which were drained out of blood in front of the house and sneaked back to my room.
"S-So this is this is your humble room… It is comfy." said Eleanora, fascinated by the room's rustic look.
"It is like that… For now go back to my spirit orb." I said.
"O-Oh, already? I wanted to stay around here some more…" she sighed.
"I will present you to my parents tomorrow." I said.
"Ohhh! Alright then!" she jumped into my spirit orb, and I quickly decided to sleep.
