Leveling Up Alone - Chapter 435

Chapter 435: Island in an Unfamiliar Dimension (4)

It seemed that the leader of the monsters judged there was no point in fighting against a monster they could not defeat, so it sounded the retreat.

Unfortunately, the monsters leader should not have said anything and stayed quiet, as one of Han-Yeols party members was observing the monsters each and every move.

Shwak!

Hoho~ Are you the leader of these monsters?

K-Kyaha?! (W-When did you?)

Tia suddenly appeared behind the monsters leader. She was sneaking around between the trees and picking off the monsters one by one while trying to locate their leader, and she finally managed to locate them the moment the leader sounded the retreat.

Hoho~ It wouldve been weird if this many monsters did not have a leader with them, and I figured you were probably hiding at the back trying to oversee the entire battle, Tia said with a smile.

Kyaha! (I will not die here!)

The monsters leader tried to run away, but Tia already had two of her legs ready next to both sides of the monsters waist.

Puuuk!

She pierced the monsters body and severed it in half.

K-Kya!

Chwak!

The monsters bones, muscles, and organs were ripped apart, and a fountain of blood spurted out from its body. Then, Tia acted as any insect would after hunting a prey by biting off the monsters head and devouring it.

C-Crack Kwachik!

Munch Munch Hmm This poison tastes a bit salty, she muttered while licking her lips.

Kyaaaa!

The sudden death of their leader threw the entire monster army into confusion, and they had no idea if they were supposed to continue fighting or retreat.

However, there was one thing they were unaware of.

You dont get to choose whether you want to leave or not, you insignificant creatures, Stewart said before slamming his whip on the ground.

Chwak! Bam!

Then, Shurarmors suddenly appeared and completely encircled all of the monsters while the black balls were still floating in mid-air, devouring the monsters one by one.

Kyah!

Chwaaak!

The monsters fought for their lives after realizing that there was no escape. After all, even a rat cornered by a cat would not hesitate to fight with everything it had in a desperate bid for survival.

This was the reason that most armies would allow a small opening for their enemies to try and escape. Of course, this was just a bait to give them a false sense of hope and was just another strategy to make it easier to pick them off one by one.

However, human armies only used this strategy to limit their casualties, and that was not useful to Han-Yeols party.

Han-Yeols party had no reason to reduce casualties, and it was much better for them to just trap all of the monsters and kill them on the spot rather than let one of them get away.New novel chapters are published on no/vel(b)in(.)co/m

Han-Yeol-nim, Stewart said.

Yeah, leave it to me, Han-Yeol replied with a grin and cracked his knuckles.

Crack! Crack!

Blood Strengthening!

Wooong!

Han-Yeols body was enveloped by a red aura the moment he used his skill.

Oh right, my shirt! He hurriedly took off his shirt.

He had no idea why, but the intricate red tattoos that appeared on his upper body whenever he used Blood Strengthening tended to incinerate his shirt. Of course, whatever he was wearing on his lower body was fine.

I wish I could give this skill to Tayarana!

[She will probably beat you to death with it.]

Haha You think so?

[Yes.]

Ahem

Blood Strengthening was a skill that turned the user into a mindless killing machine, but that did not seem to be the case judging by his conversation with Karvis.

That was how strong Han-Yeols mental fortitude was.

Woooong!

Well, that did not mean he was completely unaffected by the side effects of Blood Strengthening.

Argh B-Blood! I need blood!

[Please kill the monsters then.]

Ah I just realized that even a Transcendent Master-Rank Hunter like me almost got poisoned if not for you, Karvis.

[]

Han-Yeols mood soured in an instant, and Karvis had no idea how to reply to what he said.

Tak!

He arrived where the crew was and asked, What happened here?

The captain, who was the only dependable one, pointed and said, O-Over there!

A beautiful crew member was standing with her arms wrapped over her chest and trembling.

Hey! What happened to youHuh? Han-Yeol was surprised after sensing something the moment he went near her.

Han-Yeol-nim! she exclaimed with tears welling up in her eyes.

T-This is!

[Wow I guess things will work out for lucky people one way or another

Ugh

I think I awakened

Y-Yeah, I can feel mana coming from your heart.

W-What should I do?

Calm down and stabilize your breathing first.

Haa Haa

Han-Yeol was the only person she could rely on as long as they were trapped on this island, so she did as he instructed.

Hmm, I wonder what skills she awakened with?

[I sense tremendous mana coming from her. She might be able to join us in combat if we train her a little bit.]

Train her a little bit?

[Well, that will depend on how well you train her.]

Can you not be so irresponsible?

[Youre just imagining it, Han-Yeol-nim.]

Ugh Han-Yeol grimaced after realizing that he was arguing with his own Ego system.

Haa Haa

Okay, I think youre alright now. So, tell me, what kind of skills did you awaken with?

The details of ones skills were imprinted on their mind the moment one awakened. However, it was possible for them to miss or forget what they read if they were not paying attention.

In fact, there were plenty of cases where the person who awakened was unable to remember what skills they awakened with, and trying to figure out the skills they awakened with could be extremely troublesome.

Of course, that did not mean they would become weak like ordinary humans, as they would still have the physical capabilities of a Hunter.

They could slowly try and figure out their ability through hunting in the low-level hunting grounds, but they did not have that luxury right now, as they were stuck on this island.

White Dragon!

Kyuing!

Flap! Flap! Flap!

Han-Yeol hurriedly called the White Dragon over after seeing that the crew was unable to focus, and the White Dragon happily flapped its wings and landed on his head.

Can I ask a favor? Han-Yeol asked.

Kyuing? White Dragon tilted its head as if to ask what that favor was.

Suddenly, the crew jumped up and exclaimed after seeing White Dragon, Kyah! So cute!

It seemed that the White Dragons cuteness and ability to calm the people around her was extremely effective on the crew.

How do you feel now?

Ah, I feel much better. Also, my skills are related to fire.

Fire?

To be honest, Han-Yeol was disappointed the moment he heard it was related to fire. Not only did he already possess Fire Attribute, but fire related skills were one of the most common skills people awakened with.

She probably awakened with Fireball or Fire Wall but Han-Yeol was about to disregard her awakening, but he did not do so, as he could not help but notice the mana density in her heart.

Of course, her mana was nothing compared to Han-Yeols, but that was only due to the fact that the mana of only the most elite Bastro Warriors or Tayarana, after she awakened as a Transcendent Master-Rank Hunter, could compare.

Some might ask why humans still lagged behind the Bastro Warriors when Earth had already transitioned to a second dimension. There were two reasons for that, but the simplest answer was the difference in racial traits.

After all, the Bastro Warriors worshiped power much more than the humans did.
