-16 hours ago..
-Dean’s POV
With a punch in the face, I finished off the last one of them.
I wonder what happened to my summoner..
Hmm? He is sleeping?
What a carefree person.
Since he didn’t order me to do anything after that, I went on to explore the fortress.
I reached the Leader’s quarters, and inside I saw a map leading to the underground.
Using it as a reference, I went down, to find a prison full of naked ladies.
Curses, if I wasn’t a ghost, I’d have tried to seduce them all..
While feeling terrible, I destroyed all of the locks, and opened the gates.
“Go, you are free now.”
The fog in their eyes disappeared when I said the word ‘Free’, and they dashed outside.
Did they not notice that they are naked?
Oh well, it isn’t my problem anymore.
Feeling disappointed, I went off to search the rest of the fortress, finding various hidden treasures and weapons.
Since I can’t use them without my master’s acceptance, I put them near the ‘Bodies’, and sat in a corner.
Just like that, I passed time by carving women bodies with any nearby sword, then erased them quickly.
I’m truly thankful to the ground being sandy..
….
--Current time.
-Archillies POV
I stared at the screen in front of me, with a dirty smirk that my poker face couldn’t hold out.
--Class : Intermediate World Traveller (Unique)
--Effects :

Invulnerability to Mind magic and Soul magic. Abilities are x10 as powerful (Unique) Ability to identify World Travellers and the like.
Well now, that looks beautiful.
I kept staring at the screen, re-re-re-reading it while my ‘Parallel Thought’ did the job of keeping me walking without tripping over anything.

Due to killing the World Traveller, I was able to advance and gain more abilities.
Advancing resets your level back to 1, so right now my level is 300.
With 153 levels gained in my Beginner class, I got 3672 stat points (153*24), and with my extra 300 from my new class, I got 16200 (300*54).
And from the Beginner class, I had about 5200 skill points, plus the new class’ (12000+5200), I decided to put them all into the old skill tree’s repeatable skills.
I didn’t notice, but the 9 branches became 3.
Leaving a 1000 skill points to spare, I used the rest to increase my stats (16200*10/3)
Now my total stat average has become 65220.
Without thinking, I gave a punch in the air, destroying the forest in front of it with just the pressure.
The attack reached a whole 200 meters, with 3 meters in diameter.
I should tone it down a bit, I don’t want to be like a certain person that destroys landscapes for no reason.
While I’m at it, I put on the weight enchanted clothes, and finally felt some gravity.
My common sense is being skewered, is that why most of my ancestors decided to retire after a few travels?
Come to think of it, only 10 of my ancestors reached Advanced world traveller.
The ranking goes like this : Beginner→ Intermediate→ Advanced→ Expert→ Veteran→ Master→ Grandmaster→ Legendary→ A whole new class.
Only one person of my ancestors reached Master, and it was my very first one.
The great great great….. Grandfather of us all.
I’m not following his footsteps, he was very… uncontrollable.
His desires always won over him, it is pretty weird.
By the way, most of my ancestors didn’t reach those ‘Classes’ in the same way I did.
The System doesn’t exist in every world, and if it did, there would be a huge different.
For the ‘Normal’ World Travellers, they have to spend time in each world they visit, learning of its culture and knowledge, and that would allow them to advance.
However, I could just go to some high leveled person, challenge them to a ‘Duel’, instantly win, repeat.

I doubt many people exploit this method, since not everyone is able to get ‘The Wall’ on their first punch.
Besides, no one would be ‘Willing’ to let others exploit their levels, no?
Maybe I would be for Rain, but that is if she asks.
I tried my best to fix off the terrain the best I could with my Earth Manipulation, hoping that this spot will be filled with trees sooner or later.
With that, I walked back to the camp, finding Rain petting Inka.
Hey, how did you get out of the Barrier?
Ugh… never mind..
Once I got into view, she stopped petting Inka and waved to me.
“Hey, where were you this whole time?”
“I had a class advancement, so I was unconscious for the past 16 hours.”
“I-i see…”
“Wait, shouldn’t you be sleeping right now?”
Since it is 5 AM, she should be.
“Well.. I was worried that I couldn’t sleep.”
“Err.. thank you, but won’t you get tired like that?”
“Like you are one to talk, sometimes you don’t even sleep at all.”
“Fine fine, you win, so what will you do now?”
“....”
Looks like she didn’t think that I would give up this quickly.
She let down Inka, then got to her ‘Thinking’ pose.
Ah, she looks cute in whatever pose she does.
Hold off, I’m getting sidetracked.
Finally, she let go of her chin, and said while tilting her head.
“Let’s go to sleep.”
“Alright.’
Other people might misinterpret her ‘Go to sleep’ as something sexual, but all she wants is actual ‘sleep’.
After all, she doesn’t have a skill like mine.
While I’m at it, I could just look at each weapon and examine it, after all, it increases my blacksmithing skills.
Once we got into the tent, I sat down, but she quickly snuggled onto me, not allowing me to set up a barrier.
But but but but.. Now how will I examine the weapons..
And I can’t sleep anymore, my body has released all of its fatigue in my ‘Sleep’ a while ago.
Guess I’ll have to make do with using telekinesis to examine them..
Although it isn’t bad to be in this position with her, due to my inexperience, I get flustered easily, and can’t stay at ease knowing it.
Oh well, it isn’t like everyone is lucky to have it, no? (Except those natural-harem people, I despise them.)
….
-5 hours later..
Since she didn’t sleep before, I decided to let her continue until 12.
In the meantime, I had ‘Read’ many Ability books from Alpha and Elite monsters that the ex-Arms defeated beforehand.
What are they doing now?
I’m having them experiment with abilities, so they would level up faster.
As for Dean, he seems to be lamenting over something, so I just left him to continue.
While I was inspecting, I was reminded a few times of my mother’s expression.
Looking at her made me want to go back more than ever, but what should I do?
Taking a glance at the sleeping calmly Rain, it felt incredibly hard to decide.
Alright then, how about I come back home in 2 months?
If I take that time to explore to my heart, maybe I’ll be able to bring Rain with me?
Or Rain could advance to become a Greater Hero or True Hero.
After a True Hero, she will advance to become an Expert World Traveller right off the bat.
Well, I’ve got a whole 2 months, so I should just try whatever I could until then.
Making use of the rest of the time, I kept casting ‘Heal’ on myself so it would level up quicker.
Maybe I could lull myself to sleep?
Nah.. I’ve never been a good singer.
Let’s just read some of the books I’ve amassed in my short visit back home.
Oh, let’s read on how breathing affects the Earth.
Such a great book…
