As it turned out, Dalko hadn't been bragging.
Over the next few hours, Dalko gave Roland a perfect demonstration of his masterful tracking skills and superb Archery.
Through observation, Roland found that Dalko's Archery was only a notch below John's.
Considering the significant age gap between them, the young nobleman's obsession with the Martial Arts was plain to see.
In less than half a day, the two had bagged over a dozen wild rabbits and two animals that resembled roe deer.
Afterward, they carried their heavy haul of game to a clearing by a stream.
After a quick tidy-up, Dalko drew the Dagger from his waist and deftly began skinning a rabbit.
An idea suddenly occurred to Roland as he watched.
'Does skinning a wild animal count as a survival skill?'
With this in mind, Roland approached Dalko, who was busy with the rabbit, and asked with feigned curiosity.
"Lord Dalko, could you teach me how to skin a rabbit?"
Dalko looked up, a smile of approval on his face.
