Watching a real alive human being swallowed whole just like that, Alex and Kris frowned.
Compared to them, the other people around felt confused about what's happening.
"Hey, what the hell was that?"
"I don't know, but looking at it gives me goosebumps."
"That, maybe it's just some special effects?"
"Idiots, that looks like special effects to you? That's clearly a monster!"
…
After someone said that, the faces of everyone changed and soon fear enveloped them.
There was a moment of silence before someone finally said,
"That… I think I have to go home now."
The person that said that broke away from the crowd and left through the back door of the restaurant.
Seeing that, the other onlookers looked at each other before they also left one by one.
"Let's go, I don't know what that is but, it's better if we leave this place first!"
"That's right, let's leave now."
"Damn, where's my family? We have to leave now!"
"Everyone, hurry up!"
"Yeah, yeah, that monster might come to us if we dilly dally."
…
One by one, the customers left as well as the owner and the staff of the restaurant.
Soon, it was only Alex and Kris who were left in the restaurant.
From the beginning until all the people left, the two of them didn't say anything.
Now that everyone is gone, Alex opened his mouth and said, "We can't just watch as that thing wreck everything."
Taking a step forward, Alex was about to leave the restaurant and approach the clown monster.
Seeing that, Kris hurriedly grabbed his shoulders.
"Hey, hey, what do you think you're doing?"
Alex turned around and looked at her with confused eyes.
"What do you mean? Of course, I'm going to get rid of that monster!"
Kris looked at him as if she's looking at someone stupid.
Shaking her head, Kris sighed and said, "No, Alex, you can't do that?"
Alex frowned, he removed Kris' hand on his and said, "Why? Should I just watch as that thing devours countless people?"
"Alex, that's not what I mean!"
"Then what do you mean?!"
Alex stared at Kris, waiting for her to answer.
Alex's attitude also caused a frown to appear on Kris' face.
"Why can't you understand me, Alex? I'm just trying to stop you from getting yourself killed?"
"Can't you see that the Clown is a 4-Star monster?"
"Even me, a Tier-2 player is no match to that, what more you, you're only at Tier-1!"
Hearing that, Alex paused.
He realized that Kris was actually stopping him from drying.
For some reason, a warm current flows out from his heart because of Kris' words.
After a while, Alex smiled at her and said, "You don't have to worry, Kris."
"I don't do things that I'm uncertain about."
Alex turned his eyes back at Clown who's wrecking havoc down there at the park and used [Inspect].
[Devouring Clown]
[Class: Boss]
[Level: 203 (4-Star)]
[Strength: 3,114] | [Constitution: 2,696] | [Agility: 2,497] | [Intelligence: 2,205] | [Darkness: 2,962] | [Devour: 3,404] | [Evil: 3,602]
(AN: Tier/Star 1 = Level 25, Tier/Star 2 = Level 50, Tier/Star 3 = Level 100, Tier/Star 4 = Level 200.)
…
Alex looked at the Clown's stats and saw that it was a lot more than his own stats.
If you just look at it, the Clown's stats overwhelms Alex's by a large margin.
Alex put his hand on his chin and said, "Some of the Clown's stats have already surpassed mine."
"Especially those special attributes that he has."
Alex looked at the three attributes beside the four basic attributes.
He wasn't surprised that the Clown has three more additional special attributes.
That is because, Alex knows that starting from Tier 2 or Star 2, when people or monsters breakthrough, they will get an additional attribute.
And for this Clown, the attributes that he got were [Darkness], [Evil], and [Devour].
They say that the attributes that you'll get will be greatly affected by your skills and personality.
Looking at the Clown who's still continuously feeding himself with live humans, Alex wasn't even surprised to see that he got such attributes.
Turning his eyes away from the Clown, Alex opened his character panel.

…
Looking at the amount of free attribute points that he has, Alex thought, "Continuously hunting while I was traveling to Nagels has really brought me a large amount of attributes."
While Alex and Ferri were on their journey towards the capital, Alex didn't stop hunting monsters.
Whether it was a low-level monster or a high-level monster, Alex didn't let it pass.
That is because to Alex, even a low-level monster is a great resource that can bring him 5 free attribute points through [Sacrifice].
Anyway, after a week of traveling, Alex has gathered more than 3000 attribute points.
Seeing that, Alex smiled,
"With this much free attribute points, I can raise all of my stats to 3000."
Saying that, Alex didn't waste more time and started distributing his free attribute points.
Soon, Alex finished distributing everything to his stats.

…
Alex looked at his current stats and nodded in satisfaction.
"Great, these stats of mine should be enough to go against that Devouring Clown, right?"
Alex then turned his eyes back at the Devouring Clown.
In his eyes, determination and fighting spirit are intertwined.
"Now, it's time to get rid of that evil clown!"
