Silent footsteps echoed through the group as they advanced toward the library. A hush fell over them, each member engrossed in vigilant observation of their surroundings.
Even a slight movement from the wind makes them flinch and immediately enter combat ready mode, or ready to alert their group.
The stress level they experience is at its highest phase. Even after they leveled up and technically became a lot stronger than before, an unshakeable unease persisted among them.

He just felt a little relieved because at least now he had gotten stronger.
