2 It's Hard To Level Up
Edwards is similar to the gamer now. He could level up and get his status points risen by killing the mob. But he finally knows that his advantage is actually nothing worth mentioning at an early stage.
[Notification! Host kill normal wild boar. Host get 1 EXP point, 3 wild boar meat, 2 wild boar tusks, and a wild boar skin.]
'Hey buddy, do you have any good stuff for me? The monster is really hard to deal with.'
Right, the monster is really hard to deal with. His normal attack just deals with little damage, er... just scratch on the monster skin. Just a normal wild boar and he needs 3 hours to defeat it. Now he sits beside the boar corpse or... the loot.
[Activing individual storage space. 1-meter cubic space added to Host personal storage.]
'By the way, what is the average level of this city adventure?'
[Level 5.]
'Huh?'
[Host, do not be surprised. This world just recently got this feature from the gods. So, they can measure their strength easily.]
'So like that!' He nodded his head.
He eats raw meat to elevate his hunger. Raw meat is nothing to him. He already eats rats and worms from the sewer when he first gets kicked out of his house. According to the system, eating monster meat will benefit him. For example, reduce fatigue and increase EXP points. Right now, wild boar meat just helps him with fatigue, not the EXP point.
He continues his journey.
Suddenly, a huge green snake assaults him from a tree. Ed jumps and rolls on the ground to dodge the snake bite. He's ready for his sword and his stance. He focuses all his attention on snakes. Like martial arts, this assault is considered a challenge.
He knew that his opponent was on the same level as him. But after playing with wild boar, he knows that the beast is more powerful than human at the same level. He needs to be all out, or he will end up inside the snake belly.
When the snake starts attacking again, he dodges to the right side and hacks the snake body with all his power. He concentrates his inner power to the sword and successfully cuts it deeply. The snake hissed painfully and struggled to bite him.
The snake tails suddenly attack and Ed doesn't have any spare inner power left. His body flew and hit a sturdy tree. He coughs a mouthful of blood.
Fortunately, the snake no longer lives.
[Notification! Host killed Lvl. 1 Green Python Host gets 2 EXP points, 5 levels 1 Green Python Meat, one Green Python crystal core, and one Green Python skin.]
[Host successfully slay level 1 monster. Host can choose one of three rewards:
1. Level 1 Green Python Sword; a sword crafted with Python skeleton as the main material. It's very sturdy and has the same aura as Green Python.
2. 4 EXP points.
3. Poison Manufacturing Skill.]
'I choose number 3!'
[Poison Manufacturing Skill already learned. Please read some poison reference and get poison formula to start manufacturing poison elixir.]
[Reminder to Host. Host can learn a countless skill, but we recommend Host to limit 10 combat skill. It's really hard to enhance it to the max.]
[Reminder to Host. Each piece of level 1 meat will give some experience if Host eats it.]
Of course, without hesitation, he eats one piece of Python meat.
[Notification! Host get 1 EXP points.]

Actually, he wants to eat more, but his stomach is already full. When he looked at his inventory, the storage was already almost full as well. Regrettably, he needs to go back to the city and dump all his loots and get some money.
At the gate, the gate guards look at him with admiration. In the city, how many levels 1 adventurer dares to venture into the forest himself? It's less than 100! Even with Ed back full of wounds, he is still praiseworthy. His wounds are evidence that he really fights with the monster.
After Ed returned, he immediately went to the guild building and sold his loot.
He gets:
Wild Boar Meat: 5 Coppers
2 Wild Boar tusks: 30 Coppers
Wild Boar Skin: 18 Coppers
4 Green Python Meat: 40 Coppers
Green Python Skin: 50 Coppers
Total: 143 coppers.
It's enough to book a room for dinner. He goes to a nearby tavern and books a room. One night the price was 50 coppers, including warm water for bathing and dinner. It's considerably cheaper. After the water is ready, he immediately takes a bath.
He looks at his chest and just brushes on it. No bone breaks or ruptured veins. There's nothing serious. The dinner comes after he finishes the bath. Then he recounted his experience and learned that his inner power was stronger than before he came to this word. He tests his spiritual ability and tries to look for ghosts.
He looked around, but not a single ghost appeared. He concludes that this room is always on, or guests always sleep here for 40 days.
Please take note: almost all ghosts or devils really love to stay in a room that is empty for 40 days or so, including a house or apartment. They also love to play around in a building that empties at night, like school or university.
After he confirms no ghost inside, he immediately sleeps. He feels tired after a battle with that snake.
.....
At 11 p.m. he wakes up and leaves the tavern. The street becomes quiet and many ghosts come out to play. He doesn't know how moon rays will help the ghost stronger, but he can confirm that before 00.00 o'clock at night the ghost can easily appear or materialize. So, humans can look at them if they are lucky or have a special constitution. For example, who births at 11 a.m. to 01 p.m. or who births at twilight will have this natural ability. But the ability grade is different each individual.
Then, actually what Ed current search?
He searches seductive ghost, a ghost with the trait of lust to sex. Of course, she must be female. He wants to make those ghost to submit and become his servant. Then he can make them possess a super beautiful female and make her his slave.
According to the system, he can use crystal core to create a contract with a ghost.
