FULL NOVELXO Chapter 6
—–
In front of us, there are almost a hundred Wisps spread through a large area of perhaps around 30 meters. Each wisp is small, and they have spread around, although they’re still in groups of three. Nonetheless, each group is separate from one another, which is enough for us to have some momentum in between each group. However, for that, we will require extreme precision.
Are we willing to take the risk and get big? Or… cowardly run away and try to level up elsewhere? To be honest, this seems like a once in a dietime opportunity… However, after experimenting with the range of Mana Siphon a bit and after seeing the power of my Dark Spheres, capable of killing a normal Wisp easily, I felt some confidence that we could win. As long as I continue to absorb mana, shoot dark spheres, and ask Partner to use her resilient and larger physical body to shield me from hits… It might work. Yes, this can realistically work! …I think.
We are doing it. I’ve already made up my mind.
“Let’s do it, Partner!”
I quickly used Stealth to begin with a surprise attack and quickly reached up to a group of Wisps that had been getting near the grave where we were hiding.
Mana Siphon, do your thing!
FLAAAASH!
I begin to siphon their mana in an instant. Hmm~ Delicious MP! With this MP, the wisp didn’t even know what happened to them before three Dark Spheres blasted each one out of existence!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The spheres of darkness explode and kill the Wisps, as I am bathed with EXP alongside Partner… although she didn’t do anything but watch.
Ding!
[You’ve gained 60 EXP]
[EXP: [190/300]
However, after these nice EXP sacks, all the wisps noticed us and glared at us with their non-existent eyes!
“Here they come!” I shouted as Partner quickly got into a fighting position… Well, “fighting” as if in using her two arms as shields, protecting her skull and chest.
She retrieved her thrown arm from earlier, so shielding wasn’t a problem.
FLASSH!
I heard the sounds of the wisp’s flames rushing towards us. All these little lights in the sky were all Wisps! Even when we killed three with no effort, they are still bold enough to come at me and even try to kill me! Heh, I suppose they’re really brave.
“And your bravery will be rewarded with death!”
A trio of Wisps quickly flies towards us. As Partner blocks them from reaching me, her skeletal claws actually do some damage to them as she touches them, and she actually killed two of them with a single swing of her Bone Claws! The other one was blasted into oblivion with my Dark Sphere as I absorbed the Mana it had beforehand! The EXP I got from the ones slain by Partner was reduced by half, so each one only gave 10 EXP, resulting in 40 EXP if we add the 20 EXP from the one I killed!
[You’ve gained 40 EXP]
[EXP: [230/300]
“GYEEHHH!”
A louder than usual group of angry wisps reached to me, and right after that, they roared like the souls of damned people being tortured. It was simply creepy. But fine by me! I quickly evaded one of the wisps that literally launched at me like a madman as another managed to rise through my body, damaging and lowering my HP.
Ouch.
However! I got them all in my range, so… Mana Siphon!
FLAAASH!
In a mere instant, their mana is mine, and I release three Dark Spheres right over their faces, shooting it in three different directions simultaneously. Something that only someone with the excellent Supreme Magic Unique Skill can do, of course!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ding!
[You’ve gained 60 EXP]
[EXP: [290/300]
Only 10 more EXP!
I fly near Partner as I find her fighting against a swarm of Wisps. She’s evading two groups of them, while another is trying to make her fall by attacking her legs, but her HP is very high, so she’s actually quite resilient, and as she just leveled up from shared EXP, so her HP recovered automatically like me.
“Mana Siphon!”
I absorb the Mana of the group swarming her from her back, and as they become weakened, Partner doesn’t lose this opportunity to slash them into nothingness!
SLAAASH!
However, right after these three died, a group of Wisps reached me from behind and began to bite and burn my soul slowly!
Ouch!
My HP begins to dwindle, but I use the mana I absorbed to kill them with three Dark Spheres!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!contemporary romance
[You’ve gained 30 EXP]
[You’ve gained 60 EXP]
[You’ve leveled up to Level 4!]
[EXP: [80/500]
And I leveled up right away from the EXP that Partner shared with me, so my HP actually went back to full, phew.
However, it was far from over! I flew near Partner as I absorbed the Mana of the swarm near her skeletal legs and then let Partner crush them with her foot as they were too weakened to move anymore. It was like crushing bugs!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
[You’ve gained 30 EXP]
[EXP: [120/500]
Another swarm was above her, throwing little blue flames at us. I evaded as I could, but Partner ended taking most of the hits, so I flew upwards and blasted them into nothingness with another three Dark Spheres!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ding!
[You’ve gained 60 EXP]
[EXP: [180/500]
[The Levels of the [Ghost Touch: Lv1], [Lesser Curse: Lv1], [Dark Sphere: Lv2], and [Stealth: Lv1] Skills have increased!]
What? Skills I have barely used aside from Dark Sphere suddenly leveled up… I guess something triggered there, or maybe I learn natural proficiency? Wait… Lesser Curse gives me the ability to curse something and weaken its stats. Then maybe I was unknowingly using it with Mana Siphon this entire time. And Ghost Touch is a more practical skill against physical beings, but maybe through Dark Spheres, I was using them…
Anyways, although we managed to defeat the initial wave, there were several other groups of Wisps flying at us, however, we couldn’t slack off.
The grind shall continue! Bring me all the EXP!
