The Scenery instantly changed the moment my eyes opened after using the Teleportation Portal.

A moment ago, I was in a region with a lifeless atmosphere but now, In front of me is very fascinating scenery.

Currently, I'm at a top of a hill while I can clearly see the beginner's village just up ahead. But what astonished me is how calming the air here and the sight of grassy plains, a river flowing at the center, and players, a lot of players that are fighting against low-level monsters.

No one is still able to reach the teleportation area on this hill because most monsters here are around level 10-12.

Flexing my Solo Player title, I then walked down the hill. It will take me thirty minutes to arrive there so it's better killing some monsters even though my level won't go up, every EXP counts.

[Aggresive Wolf]

[Level: 10]

"Well, sayonara wolf-Kun."

I said and aimed my new weapon at it. With a single flash of light, the wolf blasted into pieces. The animation of my attack isn't the same as what I have a few hours ago. Pointing my weapon to the rest, a shadow beam launched at the monster I want to kill.

"This area, I could one-hit everything..."

It is not like I'm surprised, it's just, I didn't expect to progress this fast. But if I have to achieve more, I need to help my guild members increase their Battle Rating. It will also increase mine though so I can still earn more.

My XP is still growing fast but I don't think I will level up. I'm almost at the plains where players are gathering, and the monsters are low level, it won't honestly help me that much. I'm a generous man so I'll give them the rest of the monsters

"A boss monster appeared in area B!"

A commotion started at the Beginners village. The players quickly rushed to that area because those who will kill the boss will have all the loot.

But forming a party is more of an advantage because if one party member will land the last hit, then all of them will sure experience equally while the party leader will take care of the item distribution.

All of the Beginners Village will have the same events. For example, one of the Beginners Village managed to spawn a boss because the Players there killed numerous mobs, then the rest of the Beginners Village will also have similar events. There is even a chance that Players will experience to fight three to five boss monsters at the same time.

However, there is always a time limit to kill these bosses so players must do everything they can to kill it right away. The Players who participated in the events will also receive benefits like XP or if you are lucky, Green-Grade Equipment.

White, Green, Blue, Violet, Orange, Red, and lastly Bright-Gold. Those colors will measure how rare equipment is.

[Demonic-Rabbit]

[Level:30]

The players got terrified as they observed the boss. If they die, they won't just lose one item randomly, but their experience will also decrease. Nonetheless, the rewards to the Player who will land the last hit will certainly have a BR Boost.

"Kill the boss!"

"For the guild!"

"Don't let them beat us! We will fight too!"

The Demonic Rabbit isn't as big as the Goblin King. However, it's size can be considered huge. It has red glowing eyes while one long and large horn protruding on its forehead. Its fur also can be used as a weapon because of how sharp it is, so the range attackers will have the advantage.

Magicians, Archers, Gunners, and so on. They bombarded the Demonic-Rabbit with different projectiles while the melee fighters are taking on the front. Everyone can tell that all the Players are in sync but what mostly matters to each of them is the last hit.

"Are you sure we aren't going to help them, Mamako? I'm itching for a battle." Alice asked while watching the boss monster knocking players like flies.

Shaking her head, Asuna replied to her twin sister, "Last hit, Alice... We need to calculate first how much damage the players dealt for an opportunity for us to hit the last hit."

Meanwhile, Mamako is still staring at the peak of the hill where the Teleportation Portal is located. The boss isn't important to her right now. She absolutely wanted to hug Shannah right now.

Asuna waves her hand in front of Mamako's face to catch her attention. In a sweet tone, Asuna said, "Hey... He said he's coming right? What are you so worried about? You are even living in the same house."

With a pouting face, Mamako replied, "You don't know how it feels that the person you love confessed to you this day. Hmph!" She crossed her arms under her breasts while looking away.

Asuna and Alice can only chuckle at the reaction of Mamako. That's what they love about her. Even though she's already in her late twenties, she still knows how to act cute.

"Another one died..." Alice whistled while witnessing one of the players gets eaten by the boss.

"It's already been twenty minutes and the HP of the boss isn't half yet..." Asuna asserted. They only have 40 minutes left to kill the boss, but some of the players already gave up because of losing experience and items.

"His here..." Mamako mumbled that took the attention of both girls. The moment she received Shannah's message, she quickly looked around to find where he is.

Shannah switched to Peace Mode so that his Area Of Effect skills won't hurt other Players. But, what made the players' distance away from the boss because a poisonous corrosive cloud surrounded the Demonic Rabbit. Even though it won't hurt them, they still got terrified and ran away.

Because Shannah caused a lot of damage in just a few seconds, the aggro of the Demonic Rabbit switched at him.

As the rabbit is rushing towards him. Shannah followed [Reapers Mark]. A Death Reaper appears on top of the Demonic Rabbit while slashing its giant scythe in its body. The weapon isn't physically materialized, but like a spirit that passed through to its body while inflicting major bleeding.

"What kind of damage did that guy cause with just two attacks?"

"But a mage. He won't last a single attack."

They thought that Shannah won't last a single attack from the boss because most mage-classes rely on damage instead of defense. But what happened next made the players dumbfounded.

As the Demonic Rabbit dives towards Shannah while widely opening its mouth for devouring him. Shannah aimed his staff while targeting its head.

'Bang!'

With a loud explosion occurred. Smoke began to shroud the battlefield. No one approached and waited until the smoke vanished.

And as the smoke subsided, Shannah quickly equipped his Solo Player Title, for flexing purpose.
