The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?
Chapter 216 - Pressure『 Level 39 Orc has been slain! 』
『 Level 37 Orc has been slain! 』
『 Level 32 Fierce Wolf has been slain! 』
『 Level 35 Fierce Wolf has been slain! 』
『 Level 40 Fierce Wolf has been slain! 』
Though it took longer than expected, she finally slain them all before immediately taking the dropped items and retreating to somewhere safer. The giant ants also stopped attacking the monsters and crawled back into the ground with minimal damage, leaving the monsters thrashing everything in its surrounding in a fit.
To begin with, they aren't that weak, especially when they grouped up together. Even if the monsters on the Seventh Floor are more intelligent and powerful than the other previous floors, they aren't as united as giant ants race under their Queen's banner. Without Sheila commanding them, they instinctually knew how to take advantage of their numbers. Furthermore, they were told to buy time, not killing the monsters.
The way they bought time for her was by attacking them head-on before disappearing into the ground. Just when the monsters thought they run away, a head silently popped out of the ground and bite them in the legs. The monster who had it's legs chewed by the giant ants immediately attacked the place where it thought the giant ants crawled out from, but the latter had already appeared below another monster and immediately bite another poor victim before disappearing moment after.
It goes on like that until Sheila finally commanded them to stop, no wonder the monsters were that mad when they finally leaves.
Even so, she can't believe her level didn't went up after defeating such formidable group of monsters. Is it because they are normal monsters so their experience didn't amount to much? A bit disappointed, but it can't be helped.
Nonetheless, she harvested plenty of good experiences. Even if it was only a small amount, experience is still experience. If she keep fighting normal monsters, she would eventually level up. But that would surely takes a lot of time, and time is something she couldn't easily waste at this moment.
"I guess I'll have to aim for either rare or unique monsters then. Maybe a mini-boss while I'm at it," she proclaimed before nodding sagely, marveling at the fact that she could come up with such ingenious idea without Ria's help. If she can use the power from outside, the illusion barrier, it would have make the fight even easier for her.
With that decided, she didn't forget to let the injured giant ants drink up the healing potion to heal the injuries they received for tanking normal monsters in her place. Even if they can revive with time if they somehow died to a monster, she didn't want to waste the chance. Though the system had once told her if she died in the Tower, she can revive 3 times, she had never once put her chance on it.
After all that she went through, she couldn't easily trust everything the system told her even if it benefits her. For now, she had no choice but to listens to it and complete the quest to become stronger as soon as possible. But if there come a time that her family or anyone closed to her would suffer because of it, she will have no choice but to muster her entire strength to destroy it even if it means she will lose everything she had gained from it.
Yes, even if it cost her life. She would rather remains normal like how she used to be if that's what it takes to be with her family. She heaved a sigh before mumbling something to herself.
"This is why I don't want to take a break cause I'll start having depressed thoughts like this. After all, what can you expect from a high schooler when so much responsibilities suddenly falling into my shoulders out of fxcking nowhere?"
She was just an ordinary high schooler. Even to this day she wondered why the system had appeared at that otherwise normal day. Based on what her mother previously said about her deceased grandma and the latter's power of seeing the future, something even worst is definitely going to happen to her. She knew it is still early to be worried about it, but what if the future changes because she was told about her own future?
Woof!
"Raksha? Sorry. I made you worried you, huh," Sheila didn't even called Raksha out but the moment the latter felt her master is being affected by negative emotions, she came out of the rune note by herself. There's no description saying such a thing were possible, or is it only Raskha can do it? Or possibly all of her tamed? She should test it later. It will be a huge problem if they come out when she was in a school or something. Even if the system has the memory wipe thing, she couldn't bought it in masses since it's expensive for a reason.
"That said, I really needed to move on. I shan't dilly-dally no more, let's get right into it," She soon get on her feet before checking herself over. Even without wasting any health potion on herself, her regeneration was more than enough to heal her up to full health by the time she's ready to move. Just because there's plenty of them doesn't mean she's going to be wasteful, she still needs to restock them later on.
Like her previous hunt, she immediately equipped herself with black clothes and ideal weapons for a silent but quick assassination. She isn't strong enough to overpower them yet, maybe in the future, but not the current her. And that's how Sheila spent her entire day grinding experiences with short breaks in between. Some of her assassination were successful, but there are still some that ended up in failure as she was exposed before her sword could fatally wounded them.
When that happened, she has no choice but to frontal attacks them alongside Raksha and the small group of soldier-type giant ants. Of course she didn't came out of such a fight unscathed, but with health potion or enough rest, she eventually get back to grinding in no time.
