The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

After exiting the Trial Tower, Sheila immediately prepares herself for the date. Unlike any other girls, she didn't need a lot of time to prepare as just a quick bath will do and, there's also no need for makeup. Though if the other girls were to hear her, they might have wanted to strangle her to death. In the first place, it was just a simple meeting, not a date like the other winner of life(Riajuu) would like to go for. There's no need to prepare so much for a simple meeting, just a casual outfit will do. 

Though even with a casual outfit, she was still much more charming than a normal person, more likely due to the death aura she emitted and including with stoic expression on her face, she looked exactly like what one would think of a cool beauty persona. It took around 10 minutes before she was ready to exit the room, heading downstairs toward the living room. Once she was there, Sheila was greeted with Sylvia sitting on the couch while watching the TV about some random animal discovery. But what caught her attention was the person who was seated next to her, Ria who was currently focused on her phone and from the sounds that Sheila heard from it, she guessed it must be from a game.

Muahahaha! My hard effort in turning my friend into a freak gamer has all went according to the plan! It's only about time before she would also become an addict like me and by then, she won't be able to lecture me anymore when I went to play a game instead of studying! Rather she might join me instead! Sheila couldn't help but chuckle to herself as an evil plan rooted in her mind. And as if the latter detected her thought as Ria turned her head toward her which caused Sheila to return her face to normal in a split second her sixth sense alarm her of the threat hidden within Ria's normal expression.

"Oh, so it was you, Sheila. No wonder I had this strange feeling that you were having a weird thought in your head about me."

Seriously?! How in the trial world did she know or sense what I was thinking? Even my sixth sense is not that strong! Sheila couldn't help but retort internally at such absurd reality. Anyway, I had to act cool and calm, if she learned about my wicked plan, it would all be for nothing. She will become one of me! With that thought in mind, Sheila stepped toward Ria and casually said with her hand on her chest.

"What are you accusing me of? Never in my life did I ever had any wicked thoughts about you in my head. Never."

Ria raised her eyebrow and put her phone down the table.

"I never said anything about 'wicked', did I?"

Aww shuck, my word. I guess I'll go with plan B! The reason why I was here in the first place...

"Anyways, I'll be leaving the house for a while and not sure know when I'll be back."

"Changing the subject, huh? Well not that it bothers me or anything. Where are you going?"

"Well, it was just a meeting with Angelica, though I don't know the reason behind it."

With that said, Sheila bid farewell to the two after managing to somehow calm Sylvia down as the latter seemed intently wanting to follow her for some reason unknown to her. Speaking of Sylvia, it seemed that she had improved much better in her combat skill and though she hadn't told this to Ria, Sheila had given some sort of mission to the silver-white haired girl to investigate certain things when she had visited the latter in the Trial Tower. With her skill as an assassin, it was not that hard of a job as her investigation went smoothly. This was also the reason why she was sometimes away from home, it seemed the girl took her mission seriously.

It was the mission of investigating Rodrick Jayson as Sheila believes the former seemed to have somehow survived against her attacks. She was pretty sure at that time that a new presence suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the building, just like teleporting and immediately picked up someone before the two presences vanished out of her detection, bringing Rodrick Jayson away from the scene. Sheila didn't know who had come to save the man but it must have been someone powerful for one simple reason, teleportation. 

Angelica had told her that magecraft required preparation before they could fire their spell, which means the person that had taken Rodrick away must have been prepared for such a situation to take place. If my existence was already known to the world, Angelica would not have been surprised seeing the magic I have shown yet, even if that was merely acting, it was too real to be a fake. Then, that means Rodrick has a connection with someone that comes from the supernatural side. Sheila clicked her tongue in annoyance.

This was also the reason why she was desperately searching into the information regarding the modern mage and their magecraft. Perhaps, that person might have been someone from the mage community. When she had the time, Sheila would travel all over the places, searching for a person who might be her target for investigation but till now, her effort bore nothing. If not for what she wanted to ask of Angelica, she won't have come to this meeting. It would be better to increase her strength as much as possible rather than wasting time doing something else.

Though the mage seemed incredible in her mind, the previous word from Angelica still assures her that she could somehow win against the mage if she took them by surprise. While Sheila was having this thought in her mind, it was not long before she arrived at the meeting place, ten minutes earlier. But it seemed that someone else had appeared much earlier than herself as the moment she stepped into the restaurant, Sheila saw Angelica's figure standing at the reception before heading straight towards her.

"Hey, Angelica."

Sheila gives her greeting at Angelica as the latter turned around in surprise before smiling, seeing it was a person she was expecting. Though Sheila appeared to calm from her stoic expression, internally she was quite surprised but, not at Angelica, rather the person stood next to her. It was a girl with short brown hair coupled with beautiful emerald eyes that emitted the vigor that of youth. But that was not the one that brought to her attention, it was the aura that she emitted, unknown from the other prying eyes yet, it was visible in the eyes of Sheila as her Mana Eyes suddenly active on its own in presence of this unknown girl.

Only one thought surfaced in her mind when she saw the girl and her aura, this girl must be a mage, right? But before she could analyze the girl further, Angelica brought the attention back to her as she leads Sheila and the short brown-haired girl with her to a private room that she had prepared. Since the girl was following them, Sheila could tell whatever that will take place later will be about the girl following next to her. With that thought in mind, Sheila quietly followed them into the room before finding herself a seat.

As Sheila was about to open her mouth and ask, a server comes into the room with the tray filled with food in hands before proceeding to fill the empty table with the food one by one. It seemed that it would have to wait as her stomach rumble when the delicious scent filled the room. It can't be helped alright? I only ate a few crackers when I was grinding in the Trial Tower which was not enough to fill my stomach. Since Angelica was the one treating, I should not let this chance go!
