Chapter 92: Tracks (1)

It was literally a natural physical strength enhancer.

That description fit it perfectly.

I think I’ll have to correct what I said about eel.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Of course, it had the small no, enormous problem of side effects, but even so, it was manageable.

There was a high probability that it was permanent.

And most importantly, it wasn’t temporary like a normal drug.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘That whole thing about improving male vitality and all that basically means it increases stamina overall.’

People exaggerate the rumors a lot, but in reality, eel is good for anyone, regardless of sex or age.

The best way to think of it was as a simple energy supplement.

It would be strange if something good for men were bad for women.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Though in the Forest of Four Seasons, it didn’t just increase energy, but physical abilities overall.

‘If I hadn’t learned the Inner Cultivation Method, it would’ve been a disaster.’

If HeavenlyDemon hadn’t taught me the Inner Cultivation Method.

But anything the body can’t process eventually causes problems.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It reduces fatigue.

That thing probably would’ve exploded.

‘Training the Inner Cultivation Method really has no drawbacks at all.’

If she hadn’t taught me the breathing formulas.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It was practically perfect.

Increases mana.

And every time my body develops some abnormality, it also corrects it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I started repositioning the barricades one by one.

I definitely needed to train it even more.

“Uup.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

After reorganizing them, I returned to the cave and started on other tasks.

‘I’ll place the barricades the dwarf gave me here.’

Thanks to my increased strength, I was able to save far more time than before.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The first was updating the map.

And not only was there a sea, but also several rivers where the water flowed backward inland.

I marked the location of the ocean.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The problem was that the place where it flowed seemed pretty terrifying.

‘Even that river split into two separate currents at the end.’

Since I still didn’t know exactly where those rivers led, I left large blank spaces on the map.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I would rather avoid that place if possible, but I’d probably end up going there sooner or later.

From there, I could hear sounds like “Uuuh! acoustic Uuuh!” as if a group of monkeys lived nearby.

‘How could monkeys have evolved?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Almost every creature I had seen so far was enormous.

I had imagined it before, but please.

So what kind of monsters would monkeys, animals famous for their intelligence, become?

The first thing that changed in most animals was their size.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I had already finished reorganizing the barricades, so I went to check how many fish had fallen into the traps.

‘First I’ll go upstream.’

Don’t let them end up deformed like that humanoid shark.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Quite a plentiful amount.

‘I’ll have turtle egg for breakfast.’

During the night, I caught a total of three fish.

And on top of that, unexpected food like the turtle egg appeared from time to time, so little by little my supplies were piling up.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

If I left it too long, it could spoil.

And besides, the egg was as large as an ostrich egg.

Things like this were better consumed quickly. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘I guess I’ll have to cook it half-done.’

I’d definitely end up completely full.

Even though I had a spatula, the problem was that the egg was too large to flip over.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Half-cooked egg tasted good too.

After thinking about it for a bit, I decided to cook it that way.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Tap! zenith Tap-tap! echo Thud!

Once it was hot enough, I cracked the egg.

So I poured a bit of oil into a huge iron pan and heated it over the campfire.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It was pretty hard.

“Hm?”

But unexpectedly, it didn’t crack properly.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I guess because of the size, the shell was also much thicker.

Afraid the oil would splatter everywhere, I quickly went to get a hammer.

“No fucking way…”

Clang! wizard Clang! action Clang!

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Even when I increased the force of the blows, it still showed no signs of breaking.

The shell was as hard as metal.

Not even the hammer could crack it properly.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘Then how the hell do the hatchlings come out?’

It seemed it had evolved that way so beasts wouldn’t easily break it while the mother was away.

Do only the strongest survive?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

In the end, I even had to use aura to open the egg.

Sizzleeeee!

What a hellish race from birth.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The amount was so enormous that it filled the entire pan.

I sprinkled salt over it.

The egg started cooking perfectly.

But at least the effort was worth it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Salt was a divine gift. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

That would definitely make the flavor even better.

‘Maybe I should’ve brought another egg.’

Though I probably wouldn’t have been able to carry it anyway.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I had no choice but to cut it like a steak.

It was too big even to transfer onto a plate.

I let out a small laugh and, once the egg was ready, removed the pan from the fire.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I prepared a knife and fork, then cut off one corner.

Crunch.

The key was cooking the edges thoroughly until they were almost fried.

The crispy texture of the edges combined with the softness typical of egg white.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

But eggs had something special.

And on top of that, the salty flavor from the salt.

Objectively speaking, the fish tasted better.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Pop!

I broke the perfectly placed yolk in the center.

Especially because this one didn’t come from the auction house, but because I had obtained it directly in the wild.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The yolk also had no strong smell.

It had a strange but incredibly addictive flavor.

Then I used it as sauce while devouring the egg white.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

And afterward, I wiped my mouth with a napkin.

I ended up devouring the entire pan of egg.

“Woah. accent This is delicious.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It was absurdly delicious.

It wasn’t on the level of a steak, but it had a flavor similar to bacon.

Both the eel and most foods from the Forest of Four Seasons tasted unbelievably good.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘Though a huge part of the credit goes to the salt.’

Moments like these made me appreciate the existence of the gallery even more.

Without it, none of this would probably taste nearly as good.

In reality, salt was way too overpowered.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

If the gallery didn’t exist, even obtaining salt would’ve been a monstrous task.

I finished cleaning everything and checked the time.

‘Or maybe I’d already be dead.’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

There was still one item I hadn’t received yesterday.

I usually considered eight o’clock the official start of the day.

‘There’s still plenty of time left, and I also need to receive something. arrow I’ll use the morning to train.’

Since I had reorganized the barricades first, it was only around nine in the morning.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘And if he tries to scam me, I’ll just stop trading with him.’

The special container SmartMind said could store Internal Cores.

I wasn’t sure something like that really existed, but since he promised to give it to me, I intended to accept it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Every time I gutted a fish, I found one.

Just the ones I had accumulated so far were already close to ten.

Internal Cores were plentiful.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

About five minutes after posting that, I finally received a message.

If you see this message, please accept the trade. anchor I was busy yesterday.

Title) WildGrills: SmartMind, requesting trade.

Giving one away wouldn’t be a problem.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

I had also been waiting for SmartMind, so I accepted without hesitation.

[WildGrills: Isn’t the way you speak in private completely different from your comments?]

[SmartMind: Greetings, Mr. armor Grills. atomic First, I would like to express my gratitude for accepting this trade.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[SmartMind: Considering the value of Internal Cores, you have more than enough qualifications to be one.]

[WildGrills: I have no intention of becoming anyone’s supplier.]

[SmartMind: My philosophy is to always show respect toward those who provide resources.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

After all, the gallery was full of all kinds of people.

Though maybe he’s just genuinely polite.

What a strange mindset this guy has. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Just look at HeavenlyDemon.

Though honestly, this overly respectful way of speaking was actually more comfortable.

This wasn’t even that strange.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[SmartMind: It is a bottle that generates cold when energy is injected into it.]

[WildGrills: So, what exactly is this container for storing Internal Cores?]

At the very least, he had already earned some points with me.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[SmartMind: Furthermore, manufacturing it is complicated, which is why it is normally only used for storing important objects.]

[SmartMind: The amount of energy required is vastly lower.]

[WildGrills: If it runs on mana, wouldn’t it be better to just buy a refrigerator…]

[SmartMind: You may think of it as a miniature refrigerator.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: And you still plan to give me something like that?]

It was because of rarity.

I more or less understood.

[SmartMind: Things like this can be obtained with money, but Internal Cores are difficult to obtain even with money.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Earlier, KingLeor had given me a crystal sphere enchanted with light magic.

The best thing was to just accept it without overthinking.

After all, this was fantasy.

So it wasn’t that strange for containers that emitted cold to exist.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: Understood.]

If I started analyzing every single thing, I’d only end up with a headache.

[WildGrills: But it won’t break or anything like that, right?]

[SmartMind: The chances are extremely low, but if it does become damaged, please inform me immediately.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: I’ll give you the Internal Core I obtained today, so I hope it’ll be a fair trade.]

[WildGrills: Thank you very much.]

[SmartMind: I will repair it myself.]

[SmartMind: The honor is mine.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Shortly afterward, I received the bottle he had mentioned.

I finished the exchange with SmartMind, who maintained impeccable manners until the very end.

It really wasn’t that serious.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The bottle had completely unfamiliar characters engraved on it.

All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com.

‘What kind of letters are these?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It was much smaller than an elixir bottle and barely the size of my pinky finger.

I started getting a little worried, so I immediately tested how it worked.

Though it was thick enough to store an Internal Core, it didn’t emit any cold from the outside.

‘Did he scam me?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Even so, I thought maybe he had simply trapped cold air inside, so I waited quietly for thirty seconds.

But even after that time, the bottle continued releasing a constant coldness.

When I removed the cork sealing the bottle, a cold current slowly began to flow out.

‘How curious.’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Mini refrigerators didn’t exist, but things like this did.

Well, as long as it worked, it didn’t matter.

Even if he said it was because of mana consumption, honestly, I didn’t understand any of it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The moment I stored them, the surface of the bottle turned white as if covered in frost.

I placed all the Internal Cores I had gathered so far inside it.

I guess it’s something like that. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

‘Could it be because the mana from the Internal Cores is increasing the cold?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Now that their storage duration had increased, I stood up and started training.

As long as they were preserved properly, it didn’t matter.

As always, the training consisted of sword and shield practice.

From now on, I planned to do it once a day.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘More specifically, while Wonmo is asleep.’

I didn’t know whether it was because I was beside him or because he still didn’t understand the dangers of the wild.

At that moment, Wonmo was completely sprawled out on the ground, fast asleep with his belly exposed.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

And babies should be protected.

Wonmo was a baby.

‘Though he’s adorable.’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

If I had decided to raise him, then I needed to take responsibility.

Besides, I had killed his mother.

‘Training is fine, but how the hell am I supposed to improve my reaction speed?’

Even if his mother had tried to kill me first.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Toward the sloth.

I didn’t expect to reach that guy’s monstrous agility, dynamic vision, or reflexes.

But at the very least, I wanted to develop enough reaction speed to respond.

While practicing, I glanced off to the side.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Snakes were fast.

‘Snakes are the biggest problem.’

Even if they were still slower than the sloth, I still needed to prepare for them.

And stealthy.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

It meant gaining opportunities to counterattack.

Besides, improving reaction speed would never be a disadvantage.

How exactly was I supposed to improve my reflexes?

So I decided to ask the gallery.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

Title) Exercises to improve reaction speed?

I want to improve my reflexes. academy Are there any good exercises for that?

WildGrills

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

└HeavenlyDemon: Don’t you have the sloth?

└HeavenlyDemon: I thought if you trained against him, your reflexes would naturally improve.

└WildGrills: And what about him?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

└WildGrills: I don’t understand what that means.

└Swordmaster: Throw a highly bouncy ball against a wall with all your strength. afford If you repeatedly catch it, your reflexes will naturally improve.

└Swordmaster: Exercises to improve reflexes are simple. altitude You only need to train by constantly stimulating the nerves.

└WildGrills: If I do that, there’s a high probability I’ll die;;

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

└WildGrills: Huh?;;

└Swordmaster: Then it hits you. arch That’s all.

All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com.

└WildGrills: And what if the ball ends up hitting me?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

└StarlightPrincess: I can’t think of anything else. acoustic I think, for you, that’s the best method possible, Mr. shadow Grills.

└DemonPrincess: I can give you a baaall.

└DwarfPassingBy: You have elixir anyway, don’t you? alien Even if it hits your face, you should be fine.

└Swordmaster: But I’m not lying. academy That truly is one of the best methods.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

└WildGrills: Sorry.

└DwarfPassingBy: Has a rock ever fallen on top of you?

└WildGrills: Then let it hit you instead.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

‘Wait—what if I make the sloth throw it instead?’

DemonPrincess also gave me the ball.

It was a little smaller than a baseball.

In the end, I decided to follow Swordmaster’s advice and use a ball against the wall.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“……”

“Alright, sloth. august I have something I need you to do.”

If the ball started bouncing all over the place, it might end up hitting Wonmo while he slept peacefully.

So I handed the ball to the sloth.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“You just need to throw this at me without warning. alert But fast. abandon Understood?”

Why would I have to do that?

So I gave him a pretty reasonable explanation.

That seemed to be what he was asking with his eyes.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“Because the tree that gives food will become stronger. zenith Isn’t that beneficial for you too?”

And then he nodded.

“……”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

This guy was so absurdly slow even when leaving the cave that I had to carry him myself.

Anyway, we went outside the cave and started training. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

I truly didn’t understand how communication with this guy was even possible.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

At my words, the sloth slowly began pulling his arm back.

“……”

“Alright. adopt Throw it.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

So slow it was frustrating to watch.

Slow.

Ridiculously slow.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“Ah, damn it…”

But I endured patiently.

Because I didn’t know when he would throw the ball.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

And just as, irritated, I slightly moved my foot—

But even the throwing motion itself remained absurdly slow, so I ended up cursing.

Whoosh!

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“Gugh!”

Smack!

The sloth swung his arm at such absurd speed that it looked like it happened in a split second.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

The ball hit me directly in the face.

For a moment, I felt my blood boiling, but it had also been my fault, so I didn’t get angry.

A tragedy caused by lowering my guard and my poor reaction speed.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“……”

“Ha… one more time…”

“Just one more time. silence But throw it a little softer this time.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

To survive.

There are moments when a person must live with absolute determination.

To escape.

And that moment was now.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 92: Tracks (1) by Indra Translations.

“Uggh!”

Thud!
