Asa didn't bother wasting words on it and threw a punch.
A simple punch directly shattered the Wendigo's skull, turning it into a puddle of mush.
[Experience +25]
The system notification sounded.
The drops aren't bad—more than a zombie, less than a Tyrant, fitting its rank. Most importantly, the materials.
Even an ordinary Wendigo is a supernatural creature born from a curse.
After blowing the Wendigo apart with a punch, a faint orb of light remained on the spot.
He walked up to it, and the system automatically looted it, storing it in the system warehouse—the item slots that don't occupy the backpack.
Forgot to turn off auto-loot.
Asa checked the description of the material dropped by the Wendigo:
[Remnant Soul of a Wendigo: 1: Fusing this item with an object can create a supernatural tool capable of temporarily summoning a Wendigo phantom. The quality of the fused object must meet the requirements of the remnant soul. The summoned Wendigo can only be maintained for 30 minutes and will automatically enter a recovery period after receiving a fatal blow. Under normal circumstances, the summoned Wendigo must be reset every half hour before the next action can be taken.
2: This item can be used as an enhancement material to strengthen the summoning abilities of materials of the same type.
3: Can only be used in the above two scenarios.]
I see, Asa understood. He immediately took out a black hat; he kept a large amount of clothing in his storage space just to blend into different environments quickly.
[Do you wish to fuse the supernatural material into this item?]
Asa chose "Yes."
A moment later, the hat's appearance hadn't changed at all, but a line of annotation appeared: [Supernatural · Wendigo Hat]
Equipping this item allows the summoning of a Wendigo's spiritual phantom. The effect is exactly as described on the supernatural material, though its ability to act as an enhancement material for other items has disappeared.
Asa first tried equipping the hat into the headwear slot of his equipment bar. A hat appeared on the character panel, but when he touched the top of his head, nothing was there.
"Summon."
A phantom solidified in front of Asa; it was the very Wendigo he had just casually killed.
However, its gaze was dull, and it seemed to have no thoughts of its own, like a puppet without a will.
Asa unequipped it, and the hat reappeared in his hand. This time, Asa placed the hat directly on his head.
In a daze, Asa felt that he could summon something.
He muttered "Summon" in his heart, and that Wendigo phantom appeared before Asa once again.
So that's how it works?
Asa understood. The body parts in the equipment bar allowed him to gain supernatural abilities at any time without changing his appearance. Besides the equipment bar, he could also wear a set on his body, unrestricted by the equipment bar. No matter which equipment bar he switched to, he could use this hat.
Summoning the Wendigo again, Asa began his experiments.
"Stand up!"
The Wendigo, which had been on all fours, immediately stood on its hind legs with its front limbs hanging in the air.
"Lie down!"
The Wendigo obediently complied.
"Piss!"
?
The Wendigo's entire body trembled violently. It slowly turned to look at Asa, its dull gaze revealing a hint of humanity.
Are you some kind of freaking poet?!
"You don't even know how to mark territory? How stupid."
Asa shook his head and shouted toward a distant tree.
"Wendigo, use Pounce!"
This time it executed the command smoothly. The large tree was knocked down by the Wendigo's pounce.
Not bad.
Asa nodded with satisfaction. As a grunt that could be summoned at any time, it was barely qualified.
Plus, with the ability to strengthen it through materials, its future potential was promising.
At that moment, Asa directly pressed the pause button. The sanatorium at the foot of the snowy mountain turned grey, and he was back lying on the large bed at home, holding Jill in his arms.
The beauty in his arms was fast asleep, completely unaware that the person beside her had unknowingly traveled to another world.
Getting out of bed gently, Asa didn't want to disturb Jill, who was supple but nearly dehydrated. He went to the living room alone and, while switched to the resident evil equipment bar, put on the hat.
"Come out."
Sure enough, in the world of resident evil, the pale Wendigo appeared once more.
A supernatural item that can be used freely in the resident evil world—for now, it can only summon a Wendigo, but what about the future?
As expected of Go With the Flow; it really is safe everywhere.
Asa couldn't resist and returned to the bedroom.
This moment was worth celebrating with Jill.
"Not again... please, not again..."
In her sleep, Jill's brow furrowed slightly.
She dreamed she was arresting a criminal, but the criminal suddenly pulled off his mask to reveal a familiar face, with a smile that was exactly the same.
Her equipment had also unknowingly changed into a tight, hip-hugging black mini-skirt, the uniform she only wore for official photos, and a pair of smooth, silky stockings.
In the dream, she had become the one being arrested, lying helplessly on the ground, accepting the criminal's interrogation.
Feeling a familiar sensation, the waking Jill felt something and then closed her eyes again.
Forget it, whatever.
...
The long night made one reluctant to skip ahead.
People often say a beauty's lap is a hero's grave, and Asa finally understood this.
Even though Asa current energy levels meant he didn't need long hours of sleep, he stayed wrapped in Jill's arms until the next morning, drifting into dreamland.
As for the new world, compared to Jill, who cares?
Asa was just confirming the type of new world and his new abilities; he didn't want to skip Jill's plotline at all!
The new world is a game; this is life.
"Baby, you're awake."
Jill, her brow slightly furrowed, had already changed into her uniform. She stepped forward to hug Asa, followed by another round of intimate whispering.
A flush rose on her fair, rosy skin. Jill panted and pulled Asa large hand away from her slender waist.
"How about tonight? We'll have plenty of time tonight to enjoy ourselves properly."
"I have something I must tell you, Jill."
Asa face was serious. It was time to come clean.
"Don't say it."
Jill's smile vanished, and she sighed.
"Miss Wang already told me."
No, that's not what I was going to say.
Asa mouth twitched. He hadn't expected Ada to checkmate him. Now his scumbag nature was surely exposed, and he'd be despised by Jill. This was going to be ugly.
With the personalities of people like Jill and Ada, how could they possibly accept this situation?
"What did Ada say?"
Seeing Asa nervous look, Jill said crossly:
"Miss Wang said that in the East, having three wives and four concubines is normal. A good man aspires to four households, and good sisters are ridden together!"
"Does your place really have such a tradition?"
Deep suspicion shone in Jill's eyes.
