4 Chapter 4: Slowly Getting More Powerful
I have bought an attacking gauntlet after a few months and when I entered the blacksmith shop the smithy told me that he kept the one I said I would buy in the warehouse so I bought that one and asked if I could look at other attack gauntlets and decided to buy one that was worth around 20 silver coins which was able to pierce even gold level monsters, with my drill skill it would be even more powerful and probably even break platinum level monsters defenses even though I am only silver rank 2 and my status screen looks like this

Ultimately enhanced senses increase all my senses by a lot but it focuses on eyesight my eyesight is probably at an inhuman level right now as I am able to see any dust particle in the air if I focus and my brain seems to understand things that my eyes see a lot faster than it is supposed to be ( optic nerves working faster than before). I had the drill skill so I didn't go and pick up another skill but I am currently working on trying to get a passive skill named perfect muscles which can be done by working out for a total of 1000 hours it has been 200 days and I have been working out for 5 hours everyday while I also did go out to hunt and finally
* ding*
"You have earned a new skill called perfect muscles"
""System show me my skills with their levels next to them""
Active skills:
Drill lvl 10
Passive skills:
Blood merger
Robust skin and muscles lvl 2
Flexible body lvl 10
Ultimately enhanced senses lvl 3
Enhanced regeneration lvl 5
Pushing gale lvl 9
Passive heat lvl 5
Passive paralyzing lvl 5
Even though my level is silver 2 level I think I could easily fight a gold-2 or gold-3 maybe even platinum-1
Today I plan on getting pushing gale up to level 10 as I only need to kill 13 more to get it up to level and I think its time to level up my drill skill too after I finish pushing gale I'll go look for a king rabbit.
After searching for a few hours I find a group of wolf with 18 gale wolves and 2 fire wolves they don't pose that much of a threat to me now after the fight is done I expect to see kill a giant gale wolf or something similar but the requirements to evolve pushing gale is different than my expectations the requirement is kill 1000 gale wolves before breaking the level 50 barrier I go to the library to see if there's any knowledge on lvl 50 barrier and I find out that after you reach level 50 you are unable to level up and you are only able to level up after you kill a monster that is over level 75 and absorb its life energy, the more monsters you kill before breaking the limit the more powerful a second job you would get and every 50 levels there is a barrier
Lvl 50 barrier kill a lvl 75 monster
Lvl100 barrier kill a lvl 150 monster
Lvl 150 barrier kill a lvl 250 monster
And so on
You don't have to kill the monster on your own so people from royalty probably get to lvl 200 without any difficulties but I'm not jealous because I have blood merger which is more powerful then their special skills or whatever they have
I also looked into the rabbit king and found out that its length is about 1.5 m and it moves really fast since I also move really fast I should be able to kill it easily.
I have a good nights sleep and get going to the last place where the monster was last seen its not here though so I start looking around and find some humongous rabbit paw prints on the floor so I start following the trail and there it is the rabbit king that killed a lot of silver adventurers I climb up a tree and move over it from the trees this might be my stupidest idea ever but I'll try to jump down and stab it wherever I can but if it turns its horn towards me I might be in trouble whatever I'll jump and see what happens. As I'm coming down the monster realizes that I am coming and points its horn towards me I move out of the way as much as I can but I still got impaled through my right arm but my left arm landed on its head and cracked his skull this rabbit is done for but I have a huge hole in my arm the meat will regenerate in an hour or so but there are some broken bones so I'll have to lay low for a few months fml
*ding*
" your skill drill has evolved into ultimate penetrative drill you are now able to increase the skill level by using it"
So I don't have to kill monsters to level my ultimate penetrative drill nice I was thinking where would I find 400 rabbit kings
I don't kill monsters for two months and it seems that people thought that I died to the rabbit king when I comeback to the guild everyone was like wait weren't you dead
Well I guess my new objective is to kill 1000 gale wolves while I kill the gale wolves I want to finish up the killing of fire and lightning wolves to see their evolution requirements
I'm more than half way done I killed 673 gale wolves and hit level 50 and I found some old ruins I entered the ruins a few times but nothing happened and I couldn't find anything but when I asked about ruins around the town no one knew any ruins around the forest so I kept coming back to see if there was anything worth keeping I couldn't find anything except this weird glowing blue mushroom that is all over the floor I checked if it was poisonous but it isn't so while I was cooking I used some of it (not just some a lot) what can I do I love mushroom in every kind of food but I'm making a stew with rabbit meat that hunted today some fresh vegetables I got from the forest and seasoning after the meal is done I finish the whole thing in a matter of seconds and lay down then I heard a ding sound which was kind of mind boggling
"Consumed c grade intelligence increasing mushroom intelligence increased by 10 points"
I checked the library in the following days about stat increasing plants but there is no such information
I went back to the ruins and kept eating the mushrooms but only 1-2 in every hundred mushroom would give me int and they never gave any other stat when I was done with the mushrooms I had already gotten 80 int

I was pretty happy that my calculation speed and thinking speed has increased by a lot but I also wanted at least a bit vit and dex I kept on hunting and hunting I finished the gale wolves evolution requirement and my pushing gale turned into king of the wind my passive heat and passive paralyzing also reached level 10 and their level up is the same as gale wolves but their numbers are too low in the outer perimeter of the forest because they are more powerful than the gale wolves grind never stops
Well its my 17th birthday and even though my I didn't manage to level up passive heat and paralyzing at least I got my enhanced regeneration to max level and I need to kill a Bear King and Queen and eat all their meat to level it up so my next quest after killing the wolves would be that but I don't know how I'm going to finish all the meat I suppose I'll find a way well whatever lets go back to the birthday thing my Mother and Father got me a gift and its a grimoire which is different from skill books grimoires directly gives you the skill lets see which skill this is
"Would you like to learn the skill fire bolt"
Well its my first magic skill I wonder how they got the money for this grimoire it should cost about 1.5 gold coins anyways I thank my father and mother then we have a happy meal after that I go back to the grind of killing monster again and again and again finally the wolves quests are done and passive heat turned into passive fire, passive paralyzing turned into passive lightning my every attack contains fire and lightning now
I looked into the Bear King and Queen they seem to be monsters about level 40 but they work together when they are fighting so even level 50 people might have some trouble figting them well definitely not me I can cut through their solid defenses easily and I am faster than them so it was an easy hunt well now what the hell am I going to do with two 5 meter bears how am I going to finish its meat before it goes bad well I dried about 80% of it and cooked the rest for two days straight I only ate bear meat even in the breakfast well if I wasn't hunting I'd definitely have gained a few kilos after a month of eating the dried bear meat as snacks its finally over my enhanced regeneration turned into demonic regeneration not because it has anything to do with demons but because its really fast also my robust skin and muscles turned into robust body on its own after I got hurt thousands of times I heard that people mostly breakthrough after killing 250 monsters or so but I have killed more than 5000 of them I wonder what kind of second occupation I will get lets find a suitable lvl 75 monster
