"GRRRRR!!!"

As a feral beast growled and barked at Rey, he couldn't help but leak out a small smirk.

'Well, that didn't take very long…' He found his thoughts trailing.

The beast in front of him looked like a monkey—no, more like a chimp—but it had a few key differences that made it stand out.

For one, it had white hair all over its body. Secondly, its pale gray skin and bright blue eyes were definitely not primate-like.

Finally, while it was as large as a regular human, thanks to it squatting in a quadrupedal fashion, it appeared shorter than Rey.

'I guess the last one is pretty much in line with monkeys, huh?'

The beast before him had very sharp jaws, as if belonging to a carnivore, and its bright blue eyes exuded nothing but sheer hatred.

Despite all of these, though, Rey found himself calmly assessing the situation.

'I've never seen or heard of this kind of creature before. Is it only native to this Floor?'

Rey could see why, though.

'Bright blue eyes to adapt to the brightness of this place, and pale white skin most likely because of the lack of necessity to get a tan…'

The area was very cold too, so the excessive hair was a necessity.

'Then there's their teeth. If I consider what this monster was doing before I ran into it, then it makes sense.'

The Monkey Monster—as Rey decided to tag it—was nibbling on smaller chunks of the Mana Crystals around.

'So it's sharp teeth are that way because of how it has to grate through the hard rock and pierce it. I bet they're absurdly strong too!'

Rey shivered at the thought of being caught in the jaws of such a feral creature.

'Even though it looks like a monkey, it doesn't seem to have the kind of intelligence I'd expect from Primates. Well, I can't be too early to judge…'

This one could have been an outlier, or a savage variant of the rest of the species.

'It looks strong, though. If that's the case, there's no need to be bothered about any other quality that doesn't have to do with my safety or its viability as my EXP juice."

With that thought in mind, Rey pointed its finger at the growling creature.
