Level 5

"Tsukasa, let's go back," Ais said and didn't even care about the boy.

Tsukasa looked at the arm protector before he threw it into his bag. He thought about leaving this arm protector on the guild later since the boy had already left. "Okay." Still, he smelled the smell of Eina Tulle on this arm protector, which made him wonder whether the relationship between the boy and Eina was so close.

'Well, it has nothing to do with me.'

Tsukasa also didn't intend to do anything with Eina since he knew Eina was the niece of Riveria. If he did something to her, what should he explain to Riveria?

Anyway, the two walked back and hurriedly returned to the surface.

However, who would have thought he would meet the boy again?

Still, this time, it was different since the boy was walking together with the little girl that Tsukasa saw in the past. Their state seemed to be quite bad, but it had nothing to do with him. "Oi, your arm protector."

The boy heard Tsukasa's voice and suddenly saw an arm protector thrown in his direction. He quickly caught it and was surprised. "Ah, this is mine!"

Tsukasa and Ais didn't bother to stay and just walked away.

However, the boy looked at their backs and shouted, "Thank you very much!"

Tsukasa only waved his hand, but he halted his steps when he heard the boy call him out.

"Wa-Wait a moment!"

"What's wrong?" Tsukasa asked the boy.

Even though Tsukasa wore a hoodie, covering most of his features, the boy knew who this person was, especially when he saw the long sword on his back.

Tsukasa might not know, but everyone knew as long as they saw his long sword, it was him. After all, his fight with many members of the Ishtar Familia was too shocking. He even chained many Amazoness up and brought them to a parade on the Orario, showing his dominance. He also brought his Drying Pole with him at that time, making him even more conspicuous.

Still, what was interesting was there were many adventurers who tried to mimic his style, bringing a long sword that was similar to his. Even some blacksmiths also made them since it was easy to sell.

Unfortunately, those adventurers didn't have a talent like him, and when their blades stuck, they were injured and almost died.

Tsukasa didn't know all of that, and even if he knew, he couldn't care much either since it was their choice, so it was their responsibility. He had never talked, nor had he ever forced someone to recommend them using a nodachi. After all, he knew that wielding this sword was extremely hard.

The boy looked at Tsukasa, but his eyes wandered to Ais several times.

Ais only tilted her head, forgetting who this boy was, and wondered why this boy kept staring at her.

"Um..." The boy was quite nervous, but he asked, "I-I am sorry for bothering you, but can I ask what level are you at right now?"

"My level? Well, I am level 4 now," Tsukasa said plainly since he didn't die hit.

"Tsukasa." Ais pulled Tsukasa's hand since she wanted to see him become a Level 5 soon and didn't want to waste her time here.

"I know." Tsukasa nodded at Ais, then looked at the boy. "I'll go now. Be careful along the way." He didn't ask the name of the boy since it was useless, and even if they met each other, they wouldn't have a relationship.

"Le-Level 4?!"

The boy was stunned and didn't even react when Tsukasa and Ais left. However, he understood how hard it was to raise one level, and even if he had been on the Orario for a month, he was still a Level 1 adventurer.

However, the boy wouldn't give up and thought he could chase after Tsukasa.

'When that time...'

The boy looked at the back of the beautiful girl with a longing expression on his face.

"Bell-sama?" The girl looked at the boy with some confusion.

"Ah, nothing." The boy shook his head and knew he needed to work harder.

When Tsukasa and Ais arrived at the Twilight Manor, everyone quickly gathered around them, and they were dumbfounded since they didn't expect they would return so soon. And when they thought they might have failed to defeat Amphisbaena, they saw a huge magic stone, Amphisbaena's Dragon Liver, and other materials dropped from Amphibane with a speechless expression.

Loki didn't hesitate and brought Tsukasa to one of the rooms in his studio.

The girls were curious, but they waited outside eagerly.

On the other hand, Loki updated Tsukasa's status and gave the copy to Tsukasa. "You can become a Level 5. What kind of ability do you want? Still, there are sure a lot of them." However, when she thought about one of his skills, "The Fool," she knew it was normal for him to have many development abilities he could choose for.

Looking at his status, Tsukasa must admit this was amazing. However, he wondered what kind of ability he should choose.

The "Initiative" and the "Chain Attack" were good things.

"Initiative" would allow him to see through his opponents' weaknesses. On the other hand, the "Chain Attack" would increase his reflex, help with multitasking, and help his mind to move faster.

The "Magic Resistance" was also good. After all, even though Tsukasa had the ability to absorb magic, he needed to activate this magic. His magic also wasn't unlimited, so if he had this "Magic Resistance," he should be able to protect himself from magic without even doing anything.

"Diving" was also good since it would give him the ability to swim more after and even breathe under the water.

Tsukasa was an all-rounder type of fighter. He could fight close distances, long distances, and even use magic. He could do all of them, which made his choice of abilities relatively abundant. It also made him wonder which abilities he should choose.

Loki also didn't hurry Tsukasa since it was her first time seeing this situation.

"Loki, get me the "Magic Resistance," Tsukasa said.

"Are you sure?" Loki was surprised by Tsukasa's choice of ability.

"Yes." Tsukasa nodded and said, "Anyway, I can get the "Initiative" or the "Chain Attack" when I level up to Levels 6 and 7 later. What's important is to increase my survivability. I can defend against a physical attack easily, but magic is a different matter since my ability is quite complicated."

"Okay." Loki also didn't hesitate since she knew life was more important than anything for a human. After all, unlike her, who could live several times, even if she died, she would be reincarnated thousands of years later. On the other hand, when a human died, that was the end. They might be reincarnated, but they would lose all of their memories, clean from their past, and become another person.

Loki updated Tsukasa's status and let him become a Level 5.

Tsukasa smiled, but Loki walked directly out of the room, then shouted, "Tsukasa has become a Level 5! Okay, let's go to the party, everyone!"

"...."

Everyone was in silence for a while before they let out a roar of excitement.

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"

Still, when they saw his bare naked chest, the shout quickly stopped, and almost all of them had a nosebleed.

"...." Loki was speechless and quickly slapped her forehead. "Damn, hurry up and put on your clothes!"

Tsukasa rolled his eyes, wondering who opened the door so suddenly.

Watching him wear his clothes, Loki knew it was only a time before all of her harems were stolen by this bastard.
