Leveling Up Alone - Chapter 454

Chapter 454 - Wake Up, Queen (4)

He checked their abilities constantly, and this instinctive research that he did without thinking helped him a lot in utilizing this skill.

‘Ye-Rim’s abilities are especially useful.’

Master-Rank Hunters also had different classes or levels.

Earthlings were so stupid and clueless that they still categorized the Master-Rank simply just as one Master-Rank, even though this had long since become the secondary dimension.

This was very ignorant and stupid from the perspective of a higher race like Stewart.

‘Well I suppose the Bastro Dimension was always this ignorant.’

So, even though Ye-Rim was also a Master-Rank Hunter, her abilities were useful enough for Stewart to recognize them.

“Here I come, Jet Phoenix!”

Phwaaa!

The only offensive skill that Ye-Rim could use properly as of now was to shoot out fire from her hands and manipulate it.

Of course, this wasn’t because she couldn’t do anything else. She had successfully learned to turn her entire body into flames through Scarlett’s teachings, but her timid nature was the problem.

She had never been in combat before, so she was terrified of the idea of turning her entire body into flames to fight a monster. She was so uncomfortable with the idea that she could only turn her hands and arms into fire and attack nervously from a distance.

Her initial fiery determination became meaningless in the face of cold reality.

But with Stewart’s clone, her ability to deal with fire was on another level.

Jet Phoenix was a basic yet destructive technique that allowed her to turn her entire body into flames and transform into something like the legendary phoenix. She could fly at an incredible speed, pressing down on the opponent with immense heat and striking with a variety of fire-based attacks.

‘Well, this is only by human standards.’

Even humans saw this skill as destructive, which was the only reason it was helpful for Stewart.

Clank!

Using the Jet Phoenix through Ye-Rim’s clone, Stewart oppressed the high priests with an all-flame attack.

The clone of the captain carried the MPX-707X, a mana modified version of the PX-707 model, also known a monster among the sniper rifles. It had been taken from Han-Yeol’s subspace storage, and it was secured to the ground with a sniper tripod.

‘He doesn’t like using this gun because he thinks it looks stupid.’

The captain was a man who always tried to convince Han-Yeol that he was the most useful by showing him his unwavering loyalty.

But in reality, he was a useless human, not much different from Ye-Rim.

He was the type of man who would rather fight with a palm-sized, useless weapon like a pistol than with a monstrous gun like the MPX-707X, for the trivial and crappy reason that it didn’t look cool and that he personally preferred something else.

‘What the hell is wrong with the human brain?’

Stewart talked to himself, which was unlike him. He didn’t have an Ego to answer unlike how Han-Yeol had Karvis.

Lastly, the third human was less frustrating to deal with since he didn’t have a strong opinion like the rest.

Unlike the humans who refused to do what Scarlett had taught them because they were afraid or wanted to look cool and use strange weapons, Seung-Hoon was a straightforward human who did what he was taught.

‘Now a guy like this is worthy of becoming my subordinate.’

So far, Seung-Hoon was the only one worthy of becoming a subordinate. Ye-Rim and the captain did not have any leader-like qualities or value as subordinates either, so at least in this situation, Seung-Hoon was better.

[Arrogant intruders!]

[Chain Lightning!]

Paaaakk! Updated from n0velbIn.(c)o/m

An array of light shot out from the high priests’ hands. A tremendous amount of divine power surged out in all directions, threatening to engulf Han-Yeol and Ye-Rim who was in her Jet Phoenix state. This massive amount of divine power could destroy beyond beings that were incompatible with demonic divine power.

Divine power was a force that could devour anything perceived as an enemy by a priest or cleric who wielded it as their primary weapon, and beings such as demons and the undead were particularly sensitive to it.

‘D-Damn it!’

Paak!

Han-Yeol quickly threw himself out of the way, preventing the Chain Lightning from touching him. He didn't know exactly what the skill was, but he didn’t think anything good could come from it if it touched his body.

“Tsk!”

[Where... are you going!]

The high priest tried to catch up to Han-Yeol as he fled, but there was a black mouth that was targeting the high priest.

This was something he really didn’t know.

So these cowardly, timid, and thoughtless humans would be given the experience they desperately needed through an SSS-Rank genius like Stewart without having to put any effort in themselves.

“Wow, shouldn’t these guys be paying you for all this experience?”

“I know, right? That is why I’m thinking of what to receive in return. I think it would be best to receive their souls in the demon world after they die. What do you think, Han-Yeol-nim?”

“That’s up to you, Stewart.”

“Hmm... I guess.”

Brrr.

Han-Yeol and Stewart were chatting casually about whether the three of them would be sent to heaven or hell after death as if they were playing rock paper scissors.

There was a vibration coming from somewhere, but no one felt it.

‘But Ito, what kind of woman is she?’

Han-Yeol looked at the Japanese woman who had a curious expression as she was spacing out.

The more he looked at her, the more he couldn’t understand her.

It had been a week since Stewart had borrowed the bodies of the three Crew Hunters and started hunting.

They first started out in groups of five, and gradually increased to six, then seven. As they grew in size, their powers grew stronger, which made Han-Yeol and Stewart’s teamwork stand out even more.

Whoosh!

“Jet Phoenix No.8. Fire Blaster!”

Kwaaaah!

A huge pillar of flame attacked the high priests.

[Hmph, Screen of Light!]

However, the high priest easily blocked Stewart’s powerful flame attack. This team of priests were very advanced in using defensive skills.

[Constellation of Light!]

Tzzz!

‘Agh!’

[Power of Light!]

“Aghhhh!”

Thud!

Seung-Hoon’s body suffered the most since he was in a head-to-head in battle.

He was a fighter style Master-Rank Hunter with a crowd control skill, a style that frankly paled in comparison to Ye-Rim’s mastery of fire and the captain’s ability to land destructive shots from a distance.

No matter how good Stewart’s combat senses were, his hardward was inferior to that of the high priests, so he couldn’t help but take a fair amount of damage.

Nonetheless, Stewart was able to withstand the attacks.

‘Healing Shot!’

Bang bang!

This was because Han-Yeol was right there to shoot a Healing Shot right away to restore his body.

Shhh!

Stiil, this style wasn't completely pointless. A fighter with a paled style with his crowd control skill literally just meant that it was less significant, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t good. If nothing else, his crowd control skill was pretty good.

“Fatal Impact Shot!”

Boom!

“How does that taste, you bastards?”

[Agh!]

The high priest managed to throw off Stewart’s clone of Seung-Hoon, but they eventually managed to get a crowd control effect in, assisted by Han-Yeol’s Healing Shot.
