Devious sidestep… While I knew about this ability for quite a while already, I wouldn't dare to imagine that it would be so useful! I thought that the early stages of the executioner path were insanely overpowered, but only by finally unlocking the third stage, I understood that I was just a frog in the well, oblivious to the vast world behind the walls of my confinement!
With the monsters far weaker than both me and Eve, there was absolutely no reason to use it in the fight, outside for my pure eagerness to test out its effects. All in all, there was no way for those small fries to actually reach such a close distance to force me to dodge their attacks! With most of them unable to stand a single slash of my windslord even at a maximal distance where it was still usable, I had to intentionally let my guard down as to allow them such a close-quarters fight!
As soon as one of the said beasts launched itself at me with its beak, claws or tooth, I simply shifted my body-weight allowing my body to kinda flow with the world's natural rotation while my armed hand was pulled to my side - poking the enemy to the death!
With my overwhelming power unsuitable for this place, I could only assume that higher levelled monsters wouldn't be instkilled by this move, even if they would be unable to avoid receiving a serious injury.
After practising this move for quite a while, I thought that I would be able to replicate it without prompting this strange automatic movement within my body, but no matter how I tried, my muscles simply refused to bend my waist and legs to such degree that would allow me to mimic this move by myself!
Just as I thought. If Bonger would let me replicate the moves that it gifts me with ease, it wouldn't be a fighting system but a scholar one! Even if that displeased me a bit as I could only fall deeper and deeper into the dependency on it, I'm not going to simply give up this small bit of resistance and will do my best to slowly overcome the limits of my body to ingrain its moves into my own muscle memory!
As I keep challenging more and more monsters whos locations are revealed by some intricate technique constantly channelled by Eve, I can only watch with joy as my exp points are closing on yet another bottleneck! With this speed, I will be able to unlock my statistic cap in just two days more! And that's without moving my lazy ass from this mind menace area!
If I can raise my level from 25th to 29th in about four hours of farming exp on local monsters, as long as the raising exp bar for raising my level will keep increasing at its current pace of 500 per level, I could pull out two allnighters to reach my desired power! I don't even want to think about what would happen if I were to move to even higher levelled locations! Reaching a new level in less than half an hour? Ten Minutes? By defeating a single monster?
No, I can't sully my thoughts with such thoughts! Levelling up always was a sacred ritual to all the gamers! If I want to show respect for this dear RPG system that I have, I need to diligently farm low levelled monsters as I would grind levels in some stupid game back on earth!
I guess that the visible improvement that I made by exping finally forced me to accept the fact that this is what the Bonger is suited for. Who would care about cultivation if I can raise my strength so fast just by killing demonic beasts? Not only can I get some valuable loot out of them to enhance my future crafts with, not only can I raise my levels and stats, but even the paths can also be improved! From what I remember from back when I overdrove my executioner path… There was a lot of good stuff just waiting in my hand's reach for me to take it!
But even now my thoughts are lingering about the moments when I could gain status points by pushing Eve toward climaxing while drying my lust out. I wonder why was this method included if it doesn't have anything to do with exping?
"Let's finish for today. The sun is already low in the sky, and we should set up some kind of camp. Seeing how easy dealing with those monsters is for you, I don't think we should be worried, but I will settle the barrier just in case."
As my hunting spree got interrupted by Eve, I can't help but look at the sky only to realise that she was tackling the truth in a really delicate manner. Instead of saying that the day was on the verge of concluding, it was more like the night was almost fully set! I guess that with my night vision and euphory of gaining new levels, I forgot to mind the time at all!
"Ah, sorry about that. I guess I got too immersed in my fun. Do you have something to drink maybe? I got thirsty after all this fighting."
While ingesting food or water isn't in any way necessary for cultivators, training oneself still made one looking to quench one's thirst. Since I left preparing the supplies for our journey to her, I can only hope that she thought about it in advance, otherwise, I will be stuck to looking for any kind of moisture to enslave it within some kind of container before boiling it to drink it later.
Yes, I probably wouldn't have any problem resisting typical diseases coming from drinking dirty water, but my earthy upbringing ingrained those rules deep within my soul. Drinking something dirty would simply taste foul in my mouth!
"Yeah, you can have this blood tonic. While I brought it in case something happens to us, I don't see how it could possibly take place with such disparity of strength between monsters and us."
Catching the small gourd filled with some kind of liquid, I uncork it with my teeth and take a healthy sip. As soon as the fluids start to flow down my throat, my entire body is washed clean from tiredness that I still acquired to some extent by my constant fighting throughout the last few hours.
"Blop!"
"Assimilated energy"
"Attribute points +3!"
