The World Seems Realistic But Why Do I Have A Leveling System? Chapter 151
Advertisement
Seeing the slime started appearing in the distance, the two were tense from nervousness yet didn't seem to be afraid. After all, they were no longer ordinary people. Although they were still at level 1, they do have a couple of skills, at least enough to handle a slime so long as they didn't put their guard down, it won't be a problem. As an experienced adult, both of them knew it would be a bad idea to look down upon the small blue blob unless they were asking to be killed. With a two-handed sword in his hands, Anthony took a step forward followed by Sara right behind him closely with a simple staff while cautiously look in the surroundings.
This time Sheila didn't stay behind them to watch and instead, jumped into their shadow. Of course, the two were surprised when they saw her disappearing into their shadow but they didn't inquire her about it and went toward the blue blob in the distance instead. Sheila had given Anthony a two-handed black sword which was just a normal one rather than an enchanted like the one used by Ria. But that is enough to handle the slimes; it was a brand new sword, after all.
As for Sara, she was equipped with a wooden staff that Sheila has gotten from slaying the boss in the past. It has been rotting in the inventory for a while now since she didn't use it at all. It didn't seem to be a good fit for Mia so Sheila bought a new one for the former instead. And now, she thought that the staff was a good fit for her mother from knowing that the latter already have a magic skill of her own, instead of none. Sheila somehow feels strange looking at the two in modern outfits holding onto a cold weapon in their hands but just shrugged it off to the side.
"So that was how slime looks like in reality. Was the stone-looking inside of the blob its core, perhaps?"
Anthony muttered softly that could only be heard by Sara which was following closely behind him. Sara didn't say anything, only looked forward ahead while ready to fire her spell if the small blob took any sudden and strange action. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak but more because she was focused on her opponent, nothing that the slime did could escape from her narrowed eyes.
When the two arrived near the three slimes, obviously the latter immediately leap toward them with earnestly. Anthony immediately went and stood in front of Sara, brandishing his sword at the incoming slimes. Without giving them a chance, he active one of his class-specific skills to attract the three slime's aggro onto him.

"Come and get me! "
The moment he uttered the skill's name, his whole body was engulfed with a bright light. The slimes without any intelligence were obviously attracted by his skill as one of them that was planning on moving toward Sara immediately change its path midway, leaping toward the prepare Anthony. He sent out horizontally slash at the incoming slime but the attack missed the core and only managed to stop it for a moment before another slime took the chance to leap at him. But Anthony was not scared one a bit from the look on his face as he continues slashing onto the slime in front of him.
""
Before the slime could land a hit on his body, a few and small bullets made of wind flew towards it at a speed enough to send it flying backward with a splash as its core had been long destroyed when the attack hits. It also didn't take long for Anthony to finish off the other slimes as he easily dodges them before ending their life by stabbing his sword right into their core once he was given the chance to do so. The two could make such movement all because they were now used to their skills after half an hour of training. It makes things easier since Anthony could also attract the aggro of the slimes so that Sara can safely assist him in the back. The two were simply a good combination.
Although Sheila was happy that they could handle the three slimes with ease, she still couldn't help but feel a little bit of unfair that they didn't suffer as much as her before getting used to their power. She should be happy at them yet her current feelings were pretty complicated. If she was the one killing the three slimes, she should have leveled up by now, at the very least once. But it seemed Sara and Anthony didn't acquire enough experience yet as they were still on level 1 which prompted the two to head toward another group of slimes.
The fight went just as smooth as the previous one, with a skill that could attract aggro, normal slimes couldn't do anything to defend against it. If it was much stronger, a Slime King, for example, it might be able to break free from the skill and ignore Anthony to attack Sara instead. Since Sara only has Wind Magic at Level 1 and it only has a single spell which was Sylph Bullet. Due to that, she had no way to defend against the slime if they attacked her other than dodging like a normal person. Of course, this also goes the same for Anthony, but perhaps it was because of his class, his body is far tougher compared to her so he can take a couple of hits just fine.

Of course, Anthony would say otherwise if someone were to talk to him about it, he wasn't a fan of pain, after all. But if it were to protect those precious to him, it wasn't a trouble at all. It would have gone differently if the one he was protecting was someone else. Anyways, after the second battles, both of them have gone up in level which caused Sheila to suddenly come out of their shadow and brought a few furniture for them to rest. Of course, when this happened, the zone has already turned into a safe one. From her advice, the two decided to distribute the attribute point received from level up depending on their specific class. And this was the result.
『 Sara LV.2 』
『 HP:28/30 MP:39/50
Class: Mage
STR: 4
INT: 10
AGI: 5
VIT: 6
AP: 0 』
『 Anthony LV.2 』
『 HP:35/35 MP:15/15
Class: Warrior
STR: 10
INT: 3
AGI: 5
VIT: 7
AP: 0 』
"I thought fighting the slime would be troublesome, but it unexpectedly went well. If I was alone it might go differently though."
Anthony said while taking sips on tea that was prepared by Sheila. He overestimated the slime too much since he had once experience fighting absolutely freakish slime in the game with his daughter. That was a miserable memory that he wish to be forgotten, he had lost his face right in front of his daughter, after all. Though Sheila never thought badly of her father, she did get a couple of good laughs from that. It was all according to the plan. It was pretty childish for her to do that but she was at the age where required a ton of affection, so give her a break. That time was also when both of her parents were pretty busy with work and didn't have too much time at home to attend to her so she was pretty upset at them. Of course, she never let the two know about her feeling at that time, but Sara might have known about it since she was much sharper than Anthony, after all.
While the two were taking a rest and talking to each other, Sheila was pondering regarding the quest she had received a while ago. From the three requirements, she thought the easiest one was certainly about leveling up. Although it would be a bit hard, it's possible to do it within a month. The hardest among the three is definitely regarding the Earth Dragon, be it taming or killing it, it would be difficult for her. But since the two didn't have a time limit like leveling up, she could eventually complete them so long as she got to level 50. Sheila was sure that with her attributes at level 50, it would be more than enough to tame the Earth Dragon, of course, it would be a problem if the dragon had a much stronger will than her but that's not a sure thing yet.
Eh? Did I just trigger a flag? Thought Sheila before shaking her head to remove the useless thought. What worried her most was the punishment, if she somehow ended up fail to accomplish the requirement, what would happen to her? Complete Removal, was it? What kind of 'removal' and what does it mean by 'complete'? Will her power also be stripped off and her memories of the system removed? Is that what the system meant by 'complete removal'? The thought brought the chills over her whole body as she immediately shook her head to remove the uncertain thought away.
"What's wrong, Sheila? You didn't look good."
Obviously, her reaction didn't escape from Sara's view, even though she seemed to be deep into the conversation with Anthony. With her remark, Anthony also looked up toward Sheila but he didn't see anything different from his daughter which puzzled him as he tilted his head in confusion.
"It's nothing. I was just thinking about something else, not really that important."
Sara simply gives a curt nod in response to her daughter who was trying to evade the topic. Since the latter didn't want to tell her, she wouldn't insist on it. Anthony nodded his head in an understanding manner for some reason before opening his mouth and speaks.
"We have been here for more than a few hours long, should we get out by now?"
"You don't need to worry about that, father. After all, a few hours in here equal to a few minutes in the real world."
Anthony looks at her in awestruck as he turned his gaze to the surrounding with amazement filled within his eyes.
"That's…amazing. This place might be more useful than I thought."
