Spiritual Energy: 37/62
Beasts: Gentle Dog]
All in all, Lucas was satisfied with his progress today. It was already nearing night, though, so Lucas pondered if he should stop or take a breather and go to a low-ranking area like the decaying grass field to hunt lower-grade beasts.
However, upon thinking about it, with how Spot could kill an Iron Grade-Iron Star 4 Clip Claw Spider with one slash, wasn't this area also considered a low level for the two of them?
Lucas shrugged his shoulders and decided to stay and just hunt here instead. He heard that Clip Claw Spiders were very active during the night, though. He took note of that detail as he and Spot continued to move forward.
And if Clip Claw Spiders goes out actively, it would also mean that Lucas and Spot will have an easier time finding them. This also meant that their time spent
Hidden inside a cave-like structure beneath the White Stone Cliff, Lucas looked at his profile page with an incredulous look in his face.
Just an hour ago, his experience points were only 155.47. Now, just an hour later, it had already turned to 258.07.
'Ridiculous!'
An increase of almost a hundred experience points in a single hour was indeed a little overboard. Especially for an Unranked Grade Grimoire user like him.
How laughable that he was still happy about his progress of having gained a hundred experience points before dusk earlier, and now he almost achieved the same feat within an hour.
Was he actually slacking earlier, or was he just very conservative about his approach?
In truth, even Lucas himself did not know anymore.
Spot was indeed an anomaly with the Hellhound Manifestation skill.
Of all the Unranked Grade Beasts that existed, Spot might hold the record for slaying the most beasts. Suddenly, the feat of learning another skill was no longer as mind-boggling. For a beast like Spot, such a reward and feat was actually undermining what it had already achieved.
Lucas needed to rethink his choices as he felt that he was wasting Spot's potential that was granted by the System.
He had already wasted enough of their potential with his low-rank grimoire, and if he continued to hold back with cautious and restrained tactics, he would feel like he wasn't doing justice to Spot or the System.
'Fuck! What am I even doing all this time? '
Hidden inside the dark cave, Lucas cursed himself for being a fool.
How ironic that he called Hector a wastrel, and here he was, wasting even more.
Shaking his head, Lucas calmed his thoughts as he considered what should be the right approach given his situation.
Now that he had tasted the fruit of going all out and earning almost a hundred experience points within an hour, Lucas did not want to continue with being overly cautious anymore.
It just so happened that he also wanted to get stronger quickly to not get swept by the unknown currents.
The situation with the Clip Claw Spider earlier might be unpleasant, but it at least allowed him to see a new world he had not considered before. One could even say that it was a blessing in disguise.
'Alright, let's do that. But for now, I should recover my Spiritual Energy and let Spot recuperate inside the grimoire.'
Grrrowl!
However, just as Lucas was about to close his eyes and meditate, a low growl suddenly resonated within the cave, sending shivers down his spine.
