Chapter 105 Clear Disparity

Chapter 105 Clear Disparity

Rey found it strange that Belle had just asked the question so casually, but after considering the fact that she freely told him hers, it had to mean they were close.

Since he didn't know the nature of their relationship, he decided to take his mind off it and just listen like the busybody that he was.

As he stood still there, a sudden voice came.

"Hey, Rey... do you have a moment?"

Rey heard something like a whisper behind him, but now wasn't the time.

"You really did well with those—"

"Not now! Hold on..." Rey didn't even bother looking behind him as he kept his gaze on the two.

"O-okay..."

He felt a little bad for what he did, but this was a crucial moment for him.

Once he heard what he wanted, he would apologize and hear the person out.

Since he didn't recognize the voice, it was probably a random student.

"... Ah, I'm in Level 9 now."

'WHAAAAAT?!' Rey couldn't believe his ears.

"Almost Level 10 too..."

'HOW IS THIS EVEN FAIR?!' He wanted to scream this out, but he controlled his expression.

If it wasn't for the effect of his Class, Rey was certain he would scream in downright shock.

'I knew life was unfair, but not to this degree!'

How could Adonis have Leveled Up nine times in just a single day?

It made no sense to Rey!

'I worked my ass off in the Dungeon, and he just became half my Level in a single day? Is there no such thing as justice anymore?'

And it wasn't like Adonis had fought some overpowered monsters or something.

These were summoned E-Tier Monsters!

They weren't supposed to give him any considerable amount of EXP! Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

'So why...?! WHYYYYYY?!'

There was only one answer to his question, and Rey knew it already.

'His Hero Class! It has to be!'

It was an S-Tier Class, so of course it had to have numerous privileges that would be considered broken by Rey's standards.

Of course, Rey knew he couldn't complain since he had quite the broken Skill himself, but this felt a little too unfair for him.

'I had to sacrifice all my other prospects just to get that Skill...'

To obtain [Doppel], he left behind the Classes and Skills he could have obtained.

This was all he had...

Once she was done, she wouldn't stop gushing over it, so she recommended it to him.

'It seems like they can only do this a limited number of times, and they get very exhausted after they reach their limits...'

All so they could help the Otherworlders with their grind.

'I can see why the Nation wanted to use the Dungeons and not this safer, more controlled way to Level Up.'

Other than the fact that Summoned Monsters were weaker, there were also a few other considerations to put in mind.

'For one, the numbers aren't exactly satisfactory. Summoners can only summon so many at a time...'

Then there was the glaring issue of Mana Usage.

'Those potions must cost a lot. If they have to be using so many per day, then it'll cost the United Human Alliance a good deal of resources.'

The Summoners also had limits, so after a little over an hour, they had to clock out.

'That means we can't experience true battle with this method. Our ability to Level Up is also very limited.'

With all of these placed into consideration, Rey could see why this had to be a temporary measure.

It wasn't sustainable at all.

"You all did exceptionally well today. I am certain you were all able to Level Up at least once or twice, thus growing stronger."

Rey already knew where this was all going, so he braced himself.

Lucielle brought out a Truthseeker as she descended to the stage. Her long white hair and crimson eyes made her appear ethereal in her descent.

"Please state how many times you Leveled Up so we can measure your growth."

The moment Rey heard this, he almost made the heaviest sigh of relief imaginable.

'Haaaa! That was a close one!'

If he had been asked what Level he was, he would be in hot water.

Fortunately, the question was framed in such a way that he could escape scrutiny.

'I'll just tell them the truth.' Rey smiled as it soon approached his turn to speak.

Once it did, he opened his lips and uttered the words.

"I only Leveled Up once."
