Choko was very close to being bitten by the mutant turtle, but then Luna, who was nearby, jumped and headbutted the mutant turtle. Although she was unable to hurt the turtle at all, she was able to deflect the turtle's focus from Choko.
Nero had already materialized get Short Bow and pulled the bowstring, shooting a dark arrow.
*Whoosh!*
"GRRRRRRRRRRR!"
The arrow hit the mutant turtle's right eye, making the turtle roar in pain, and with blood dripping from its right eye, with an even more ferocious expression, the turtle did not give up and went to bite in Choko's direction again.
"Watch out!" Nero screamed in the air and arrived in time, punching through the air. Looking like a tornado from an external perspective, she spun in mid-flight and landed a powerful punch on the mutant turtle.
*Boooom!*
Nero's kick was not one to be underestimated. With a Strength of 110 when holding the Short Bow and along with her Speed being almost 100 points, Nero's kick was very strong; even the large body of the mutant turtle was thrown away, crossing over the lake by an extra 4 meters.
Nero made her wings shrink as she stood in front of Choko, and said, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
Choko came to, and she felt her legs were wobbly and noticed she was sitting on the floor in an "M" shape. She replied after catching her breath, "Yes, but I was so scared that my... my legs went wobbly."
To be honest, Nero had a bit of greed when looking at the big mutant turtle, wanting to make it a hired monster, however, seeing Choko's current state, she sighed and said, "Let's get out of here, for now. The turtle will come back..."
Nero did not continue what she was going to say because, as bizarre as this situation was, the turtle fell on its back and was unable to get up. Okay if it was a normal turtle this sort of thing would be normal, but this was a level 6 mutant turtle, yes?
"Wait here. I'll be right back!" Nero hurried out, making the pair of wings on her back expand and flap very fast. She crossed the lake, and with the Short Bow, she started shooting arrows over and over.
*Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!*
*Boooom!* *Boooom!* *Boooom!*
The defense of this turtle was strong, but the bottom part of the mutant turtle was its weak point, which is precisely why Nero managed to hurt and leave the turtle almost dead. But it hadn't stopped fighting yet, fidgeting in the hope of getting around.
"Now!" Nero approached the turtle and used: "<Tame Monster>!"
_ _
You have captured the Water Monster [Mutant Turtle] Rank F: Level 6.

"Hehehe! Success!" Nero whirled in the air, chuckling happily. It was a good thing to get a powerful new mate. Besides, it was quite big... She could use it as a mount possibly, yes?
Meanwhile, the large blue body of the mutant turtle began to glow and. Soon after, it entered Nero's body.
Remembering Choko, Nero flew to her. Choko's small face was still deathly pale. Nero came over and when she was very close, she knelt down and hugged Choko. "It's okay now."
"Yes, thank you." Although in shock, Choko was able to speak. She scolded herself several times during that period; she hadn't expected to become such a burden...
As if she knew what Choko was thinking, Nero said, "We will work hard together and pass the Hunter School test, yes?"
Although it was only a few words, Nero's statement touched Choko's heart strongly. Choko felt motivated again. Although she was insecure, she replied, "Yes, I will do my best!"
"That's how it has to be." Nero pulled away from the hug and smiled.
After that, Nero dematerialized the Short Bow (Luna and Demonic Acid Slime as well).
The humans Nero and Choko had killed, Nero took and kept in her Hunter Card. She intended to feed Demonic Acid Slime with them later.
"Are we going to dismantle the tent?" Choko thought it best to get out of there, so she looked at Nero and asked.
"Yes, we better get away from here. I'm going to carry you around a bit and fly somewhere. I bet that soon, many people from the Qin Clan will come seeing as some of them have fled and possibly will talk about what happened here. And the existence of this turtle is very abnormal; they may want to profit from it." Nero said this because it was not normal for a level 6 mutant monster to be in the Beginners' Forest.
"Okay." Although she was a little shy when thinking about flying in Nero's arms, Choko did not reject the idea.
After dismantling the tent and putting everything they brought with them in her Hunter Card, Choko said, "We can go now."
"Yes, hold on tight to me." Nero picked her up, and Choko wrapped her arm around Nero's neck. Nero then spread her wings and started flying with Choko in her arms.
"Wow!" It was the first time in her life that Choko had flown. She was pleasantly surprised at the sight of the forest from above.
"Very beautiful, yes?" Nero said with a smile.
"Yes, but it gives a little chill in the belly... Mm, but it feels nice, I think." Choko looked at Nero's smile and looked down at the forest.
Nero continued to fly, heading towards a waterfall that she had managed to spot. Both she and Choko were soiled with blood, and since it was a few kilometers away from where the two were before, they could stop for a while to wash themselves, and then she and Choko could continue going further towards the Nan Empire.
There were many plants and flowers near the waterfall. It was very beautiful, a real feast for the eyes. Nero's speed slowed as she approached. She also started to glide and descend towards the waterfall.
"Nero, are we going to wash at the waterfall?" Choko asked. She also considered washing herself, as the smell of blood was unpleasant.
"Yes, that is my intention," Nero responded and went down more and more.
Nero went down very close to the beautiful flowers she had seen near the waterfall.
