BXBX NOVEL Chapter 15 Level Up
As expected. It was pitiful. Not as magnificent as he last saw it, but he was not complaining. This was still the beginning after all.
His strength was 6,6.
It had to be known, 0,1 was the average number here. And even then, that represented half a ton of strength. Crazy.
Modern humans had below average strength for this world, but second and third generational humans surpassed the norm.
The former had a ton of strength, thus 0,2 points on strength initially. And the latter had ten tons of strength, hence 2,0 points on strength. Qualitative difference between the two.
Then there was Damien, who could lift up an oak tree with his bare strength alone. Of course, even he found that a tiny bit difficult, but not impossible.
He had the strength worth almost thirty five tons. Approximately thirty three tons of strength. Which was 6,6 points on strength.
With the 50% added effects, his strength became almost fifty tons.
Leaving to the 9,8 points on his strength. This was enough for him to dog walk even an Apprentice. There was no need for him to Level up any more.
As for speed. 0,1 was also an average, representing 10 meters per second. Him having 1,0 meant that he could traverse a hundred meters per second (225 mph).
Over eight times the fastest human athlete of the modern Era. Of course without the genetic modification or biotechnological enhancements.
And lastly, Endurance meant the amount of damage he could take. It was like strength, but for damage taken instead.
His 15,0 points meant that he could take damage worth seventy five tons and survive. Yeah, bashing him with rocks and the likes, meant nothing to him.
\'This is all thanks to the level up boost though.\' Damien thought. Brushing off the fact that even then, fifty tons of defense was still inhumane.
Let alone the feat of crossing over fifty meters every second. He, himself was just a monster.
He checked the Life Essence requirements, and realized everything was still the same. Thus with his currently still 50 Life Essence units, he did not command the interface to use it all up.
"Let\'s save this up for last. Or when I\'m truly desperate." He said. He was prideful. Especially so, when he still had the mentality of the Damien of the future.
Boosting himself any longer, and he\'d just be overestimating his opponents.
And they weren\'t worth it.
He brushed off those thoughts. And any other irrelevant thoughts coming to mind. Time was of the essence.
Any second now, the next opponent might arrive. So, he had to make it quick.
"Hurry up. Go ahead and level up. Max level yourself if you can." Damien said, as he held Juliette\'s hand and said within his thoughts, \'I wish to transfer my obtained Life Essence to her.\'
[ Are you sure? ]
The interface appeared, and verified his thoughts. Damien nodded.
[ ... ]
Meanwhile, Juliette was already waiting for this moment. When Damien suddenly muttured out, "Level Up", she knew that it was something she had to do as well.
She just needed a go ahead from him.
And she finally got it.
With that, she smiled happily. Expectant of how it would feel to \'Level Up\'. She knew that it was a form of, or sort of upgrade or purification of sorts.
Hence she was looking forward to it.
"Level Up." She said, and instantly added after remembering his words, "To the Max. Level Up to the maximum."
He did say that she was to max level herself. And as a good girl, she was going to listen to his every word obediently.
[ TING!!! ]
[ Congratulations, you are a level 1 Combatant now. As the second to Level up, you obtained the enhancement of quadruple the Stat enhancement ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have leveled up ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have leveled up ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ Your partner wishes to transfer their acquired Life Essence to you. Do you accept? ]
"..."
Juliette was shocked, and surprised. But also a bit suspicious. She first looked up at Damien for verification, and he nodded gently at her.
His gaze looking up.
The environment was already changing. They suddenly appeared within the sky, them standing upon a huge, soft cloud. It gave out the impression of being empty.
It was as if they stood on nothingness.
And when she looked up, she saw a being she did not know how to feel upon seeing. It was beautiful, yet at the same time, deadly.
"...Yes. I do." And instead of wondering what that thing was, she responded as such.
Those words sounded strange. They gave her butterflies within her stomach, but she did not think much about it at the moment.
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have obtained 50 units of Life Essence from your partner ]
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have leveled up ]
Juliette finally sighed in relief. But before she could also look up and better appraise the new enemy, another notification, silent this time, appeared within her mind.
[ Name: Juliette Silver ]
[ Epithet(1): First Blood(Grand) ]
[ Class: Lvl 4 Classless ]
[ Sub-Class: None ]
[Alignment: None ]
[ Stats: STR - 9,2 || AGI - 1,15 || END - 8,8 ]

"..."
Juliette was amazed by what she saw. She has never seen anything like this her entire life. And she was excited upon seeing it now for the first time.
It was normal.
Unfortunately, there was a lot she was unaware off. Hence she could not delve much deeper into this interface thing.
But she knew Damien knew something about it. And they would have enough time to discuss it once they are outside.
For now, she just wanted to let out the vibrant energy coursing within her, out. She felt her strength increase, and wanted to know how strong she was.
And whether... she could now be of use!!
With that in mind, she gazed up. It was finally time to appreciate the beauty, and extraordinariness of the creature above them.
"..."
Unfortunately for her, no matter how much she set her eyes upon it, she was still surprised. Nobody could blame her though.
The figure above them was humanoid. And yes, feminine. Hence why it was extremely beautiful, both in figure and shape.
It had white vibrant wings spread out behind it. Making it seem majestic and holy.
Yet it\'s attire was gothic, and quite... revealing. If you were curious, it was a short dress. Short as in, barely covering half her thighs.
From behind, it seemed as if it was almost, just almost about to reveal her rear. But it was useless, for her inner wear was already revealed.
Being black in color.
The top was sleeveless, and revealed a bit of its abundant chest. The cleavage, was a bit too improper in Juliette\'s perspective.
All in all, Juliette only had one thought for this extremely beautiful existence. She was not even fearful, unlike when she faced the previous two opponents.
She was actually disdainful.
Her thoughts revealing her attitude, \'What a b*tch.\' She thought. She sneaked a glance at Damien, who was looking up all this while.
But his expression was null.
In fact, it was a bit cold, and predatory.
The same one he gave the demon when it was at its last breathe. Juliette slightly smiled at him, but tried her best to hide it. Damien was still my man. She thought.
Meanwhile, "An angel." Damien muttured. It was an angel. And like other low ranked angels, it had a full-over face mask that had no expression of decoration.
It was one feature Juliette subconsciously ignored due to her jealousy.
The angel\'s mask was purely white. It\'s hair was blonde, and skin a bit pale white. Beauty aside, it resembled a goddess as it stood above them and gazed down.
A single spear in its hand.
"..."
Juliette did not comment at Damien\'s words. For once, she was looking forward to killing someone. Or something.
Whatever it identified as.
"Stay here." Damien whispered. And she nodded. He was already walking towards the angel with steady, relaxed steps. Fearless and prideful.
But as he continued walking, he slowly began to pick up pace. And not long, he was already running towards it.
The angel was around ten meters above the cloud. And it was not something Damien could not reach. He could reach such height if he really put his all into it.
And he desired to do just that.
As for the spear? What did it amount to, infront of his defenses? Yeah. Nothing.
Thus he sprinted forward.
But the angel was not stupid either. It spun the spear in its right hand, and held it like a javelin. And without hesitation, threw it towards him like a bolt of lightning.
"..."
Damien slightly frowned at its actions. But he was clearly experienced, and also knew that angels were quite sneaky and schemeful.
Just because they are virtuous, did not mean they were not sly. In fact, these creatures were the slyest, and one of the most ruthless creatures to exist.
So... he dodged.
