Chapter 34 Leveling Up
Chapter 34 Leveling Up
Clink!
CREEAAK
The door creaked open as Khan entered the place, his eyes scanning the small living room, one with the same arrangement as the one they slept on, the first time.
His gaze scanned the room finding nothing as he walked into the place.
"Activate Nanorunic Eyes..." Immediately the entire world changed, a conglomerate of dark and red infused within, one in the next room and one...
Immediately, Khan's right hand moved towards his left waist coming to rest on his katana head, as he dragged it an inch from its sheath.
SCREEEECCCCCCHHHH
SHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
An ear-piercing roar of an undead came from above his head, yet a brilliant sword light flashed through the world like a shooting star in the night as Khan gently sheathed his katana before walking towards the door present in the room.
Blood splashed down like a waterfall, as the devilish undead fell to the ground with a loud thump, its head bouncing off the ground repeatedly before rolling to a stop at the corner of the room.
Clenching the door knob tightly before gently opening the door, Khan entered into the room, gently locking the door.
SCREECHHHH
SLASH
SHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
Different noises rang out from the room, one that of a bone-chilling screech, the other that of a katana being unsheathed and slashing.
The sound was loud and managed to draw the attention of the group who all immediately ran towards the room, Liam at the forefront, quickly entering the house, the sight of the undead with a severed head greeting their gaze.
Liam bent looking to the level of the undead, his eyes narrowed as he looked at its severed neck.
"Severed in one stroke and incredibly smoothly with not a single hint of resistance. This is the work of a katana expert."
CLINK
Slowly the door knob twisted and turned as the group watched with raised eyebrows, a golden-haired young man exiting.
His eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and also slight discomfort as he looked at them with a raised eyebrow.
"We heard the noise and thought you might have experienced some danger..."
"You don't have to worry about me..." Khan replied as he moved out of the place, leaving the group of four remaining In the room.
"Tch, what a cocky bastard..." Sharon voiced with displeasure as Liam slowly walked towards the door where Khan exited from.
Opening it, his eyes widened in shock looking at the blood dripping down from above the ceiling, belonging to undead who were unable to escape the binds of their cocoons while different undead bat bodies lay strewn in the ground.
"A Total of 10 Undead bats at the 5th Star rank stage all dead in a single stroke to their neck or chest. What an interesting young lad..." Liam voiced out with a smile much to the horror of the other adventurers.

"Oh..."
Surprise flashed in Khan's eyes looking at the notification as a glint flashed in his eyes.
'So I can level up by killing the undead. Perhaps, this would be worth the trouble...' Khan thought as he changed his mind before quickly moving on to the next building.
SCREEEECCCCCCHHHH
SLASH
SHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIING
"At least, he has killed more of the undead than you have..." Theodore replied with a mocking tone.
For the next seven hours, the group kept hearing the noise of the undead and the sound of collision. It caused them to keep running towards the building for the next two hours but soon they stopped, having met the same scene all the time once they entered the building.
Once again they watch him exit the building and enter into another.
"Does he ever get tired? He had been doing that non-stop for almost 7 hours right?" Theodore asked looking at the building where Khan entered, the sound of collision ringing loudly a moment later.
"Tch, talk of a show-off" Sharon snorted coldly ignoring him.
"At least, he has killed more of the undead than you have..." Theodore replied with a mocking tone.
"And so?"
"It means he's stronger than you..." Theodore replied, a satisfied smirk appearing on his face seeing the vein popping on Sharon's forehead.
"Tch, stronger than me. Open your blind eyes well and let me show you what it means to be strong..." Sharon snorted coldly before running towards one of the buildings.
"Haha, what a fool.."

"[Congratulations, you have killed an undead at the 5th star rank stage]
[+50EXP gained]
[Total EXP: 1700/1000]
[Does Host Wish To Level Up]
"Yes..."
[Congratulations, Host has leveled up to Level 5]
[+10 Attributes points gained]
[Total Attributes points: 20]
[Would you like to distribute your attribute points?]
"No..."
Khan replied, the holographic panel disappearing from his sight after that.
"10 hours of repeated killing and only leveling up once. The creatures are too weak and give too little points. The more level up, the more EXP is required, and killing these undead then would harvest too little EXP for a quick level up. I have to find a stronger undead if I want to keep growing quickly..." Khan mused before exiting the building.
"Uh?"
The sun had already gone down, leaving orange linen in the sky.
He could see the snow had stopped pouring down, and although all the undead around were already slaughtered. He could see the carpet of snow disappearing and the river of blood slowly appearing on it.
"The Snow is retreating! The Undead will be moving out soon..." Khan mused as he turned to look at the group who were already gathered together in the distance.
Arriving before them, Liam turned towards him as the others moved towards the building where they came from.
"It's already getting late and as you can see, the undeads will soon be flooding here once again. We decided to rest tonight before once again moving forward tomorrow. We found some little clues here and there in the building and gained some type of map of this place, though still unconfirmed, we'll see about it, tomorrow." Liam quickly reported as Zeras gave a nod before moving towards one of the buildings.
"You know, it's safer if we're all in one place. There's no saying when an undead could enter a building, but all together we can easily handle it if such a scenario were to happen.
But of course, you're pretty strong, I'm sure you would be able to handle it, although I'm not hundred percent sure about that." Liam said, causing Khan to furrow his eyebrows a little as he picked up on something strange in his words but ignored it as he kept moving towards the building.
"As I said before, you don't have to be worried about me..." He replied entering the building before the door shut closed tightly, the windows also zipping to a close a second later.
"Good night..." He heard the voice of Liam, looking through the small opening in the window as he followed him to the building where they all slept in the other day.
"HUUUUUUU..." Khan exhaled loudly.
Of course, he was well aware of the reason behind Liam's proposal to stay together In one building, not only was it safer, but it was also easy to ward off any abnormality that might happen if they were together.
Unfortunately, he had other plans for the night!
