Book 3: Chapter 1.2: Back to the Grind Part II

Scarlet

Considering how many kills youre taking from me, Id say you should already be a high enough level to take on the demons on the outskirts of the Fracture by yourself, Sylver grunts with a frown on his face as he looks around at the demons Id killed closer to the edges of the second large room of the arcade. A bowling alley. And I cant help but think hes trying to get rid of me.

Well, it makes sense that he would, Tar says, sounding rather amused. Youre kind of stealing a bunch of his kills.

I mean, its not like most of those kills would give him EXP anyways

That said, I let my System messages flow through.

{Congrats, you have leveled up to level 111. Three Free Points have been awarded to you and your stats have been updated.}

Then again, Im not really sure how that all works.

And Tar wont say anything still.

Youll find out on your own, Tar says, making me frown.

Annoying.

Stupid prophecies.

Then again, for all I know, the one doing the manipulating of my Fractures could be my father himself. Or maybe just someone subordinate to him?

I continue walking through the room before entering the hallway where I eventually find more demons after turning a corner further down in said hallway.

|Demon Fomorian Subspecies: N/A Level 102|

|Demon Fomorian Subspecies: N/A Level 104|

|Demon Fomorian Subspecies: N/A Level 103|

|Demon Fomorian Subspecies: N/A Level 102|

|Demon Acolyte Subspecies: N/A Level 125|

An acolyte and its bodyguards, all of which are almost at the lowest level they can possibly be in this Fracture.

Not a half bad find, if Im being honest.

The fomorians all begin rushing towards me as soon as they smell me, meanwhile the acolyte begins raising its staff, only to grow confused when I place a null magic field around it. But it pushes past the confusion a second later to send a bolt of lightning at me, frowning a second later.

I jump out of the way of the bolt of lightning before covering my shapeshifted arms with claws of blood not using the metallicized blood and charging straight for the fomorians who are all now several levels below me.

Lets begin the hunt.
