Dilan was quite satisfied while looking at his Log of the Ancient.
His stats were still far from reaching the limit of a Tier-1 existence because of the increase he had received from his Divine occupation [Kirak’s Vassal], however, Dilan was still quite powerful after all the gains he made.
‘Without all these amplifications, my Health stat would be extremely low…’ Dilan had realized not too long ago.
While his current base state for Health was 95.4, the title Beyond the Stars provided a +10% boost. Meanwhile, the chestplate he was wearing gave him an additional boost of 10 Units for his Health.
However, that was not what Dilan was the most interested in.
‘My Origin ability [Regeneration] increases my Health by 35 Units, my Divine Occupation [Kirak’s Vassal] increases all my stats by 10 Units along with boosting my Health by an additional 15 Units. So…without all these amplifications, my base Health would only be at 35.4 Units?!’
Dilan was a little bit disgruntled when he realized that his stats might not be as high as he had presumed them to be. Without the stat boost that stemmed from his occupation, only his Stamina would go lower than his Health stat.
This was something Dilan never realized before, and it stupefied him.
“And? What does your Log of the Ancient look like? Did you write down your stats to compare them before and after we went hunting for some time?” Oliver asked, smiling faintly.
He saw the change in Dilan’s facial expressions and felt that their leader noticed something that irked him.
Oddly enough this was something Oliver found pleasing to the eye. It was rare to see Dilan stupefied or that something other than human beings irked him.
That was why Oliver felt like smiling, only for his expression to stiffen when Dilan answered him,
“I’m actually a little bit dissatisfied with my stats. They’re actually lower than I anticipated.”
This was the truth, and Dilan’s honest opinion. However, Ailee, who had been drinking some water, nearly choked on it before she spit it out.
Unfortunately, Oliver had been in her way, and all the water rained down on his stupefied face.
“Oh my! I’m so sorry, Oliver!!” Ailee quickly apologized before she wiped his face with the sleeve of her shirt.
“Yeah…no worries…” Oliver replied while blinking rapidly. Goosebumps appeared on his body when he glanced over to Dilan.
‘How the hell can he say that he is dissatisfied with his stats?! His stats are definitely above 50 on average…Not even Yvonne has reached that threshold!!’
If Oliver had been pleased for a quarter of a second, his mood plummeted the instant Dilan started to speak.
Ailee felt similar, with the sole difference that she had never been pleased with the expression Dilan made.
Rather, she had been confused about why Dilan would be dissatisfied after they told Dilan to make a before and after comparison of his Log of the Ancient after a week of hunting.
‘Well, I guess stronger people have a fiercer desire to become even more powerful. Maybe he wants to advance to Tier-2 as quickly as possible, and something is hindering him.’ Ailee mused. There was no other reason she could find that might have led to Dilan’s quick change in his behavior.
“If the two of you are done flirting, we should continue hunting.” Dilan suddenly interrupted the two before he turned away without waiting.
Oliver blushed a bit after hearing what Dilan had said, but Ailee just nodded her head and followed Dilan just a moment later.
They had already been out hunting for several hours, yet, instead of absorbing the Essence crystals of the monsters they had killed, the three decided to wait.
It wouldn’t make a huge difference whether they absorbed the Essence crystals immediately or after, just that they were stronger if they were to absorb the Essences immediately after the battle.
However, by not doing so, Dilan forced himself, Oliver, and Ailee to use their current strength to defeat their opponent.
He wanted to improve his current strength without changing his stats, and the flirting pseudo-couple was supposed to focus on the same.
As he shook his head, Dilan’s ears perked up. He heard something from his right side and dashed out at once.
There was no hesitation in his movement, and the first thing he saw was a SapphireClaw Bear.
“Another one?” Oliver asked the moment he appeared next to Dilan, who was hiding behind a bush.
“It looks like that.” Dilan merely answered before preparing to go all out to defeat the SapphireClaw Bear.
He didn’t have much mana left, which is why he forced himself to use [Bearer of Pain] and replenish his mana by using some of his lifeforce.
This resulted in [Bracing Pain] to amplify his strength. A moment later both [Thunder Step] and [Second Acceleration] were activated.
Dilan shot out of the bush, and his speed accelerated rapidly.
It was impossible for the SapphireClaw Bear to notice him early enough to react.
A huge ball of water began to form around the monster, but even before it was fully constructed, Dilan had already passed through the bubble of water.
The CrimsonClaw Daggers had manifested in his hand and Dilan slashed out with them. With a cross-slash, he tore open the Bear’s entire abdomen before he reached the monster’s neck, which he pierced through as well.
The monster was killed in an instant, but that was only obvious.
‘Even the EmeraldClaw Bear wouldn’t have been able to reach my speed if I amplified my stats with [Bracing Pain] first before I activated both the acceleration abilities I have.’ Dilan thought, reminding himself once again, why [Bracing Pain] was one of the strongest abilities he possessed.
Oliver and Ailee didn’t look as surprised as Dilan upon noticing his terrifying speed.
They had already accepted that Dilan was far stronger than them, and it was fine with the two.
As long as Dilan was on their side, they would be happy with his progress, no matter how strong he actually became.
Dilan stored the corpse of the SapphireClaw Bear and its Essence crystals separately before his head flicked to his left.
“There are, at least, 300 monsters ahead of us in this direction. Looks like I get three more Clawed Bears to kill, a bunch of a few dozen Silver Tier-1 monsters, and the rest are either ordinary or Bronze monsters.
But all of them seem to be at a high level.” Dilan shared his observations, not bothering about cleaning the CrimsonClaw Daggers because their job was not yet over.
Meanwhile, a bright smile emerged on Dilan’s face. Adrenaline coursed through his body and excitement filled his mind and heart.
He was happy to have entered the Mountain Ring of the Elements Gate with Ailee and Oliver.
After all, he could finally let go of his tension, increase his strength without worries, and simultaneously, both Ailee and Oliver would become stronger as well.
