Chapter 93 A Calm Night
"GRRRHHH!!!"
An anguished growl came from The Devourer for the last time. The bits of tentacles that remained in its body started to fall over the destroyed city.
Rodney looked up with sparkling eyes because he had seen his victory. The yellow light that fell from the mouth that never closed completely fell like fireflies in the darkness.
"Rodney! What are you doing?! Get out of there quickly!" Mona's screams were heard from a distance and woke Rodney who was too carried away by his satisfaction.
Rodney didn't realize that The Devourer's giant body would fall on him any minute.
If it wasn't for Mona's scream, maybe she would have been crushed by the body because she didn't have enough time to dodge.
Rodney immediately came out of his stupor and immediately jumped out of there. Meanwhile, The Devourer's body, which had lost its life, fell slowly.
Less than a minute later, The Devourer's entire body had fallen over the city. As it turned out, even though the body was huge and seemed to be made up of huge lumps of tentacles, it wasn't anything hard.
The body was instantly crushed like a giant jelly that was dropped from above and hit the city. The disgusting purple liquid splashed in all directions and dyed the city with purple and rotten liquid.
The Regressors, Sonya and Asqa had already run as far as they could from that location.
However, no matter how far they ran, they couldn't outrun the purple liquid that was spreading fast from their distance.
"It's over," Reed said with a sigh of relief.
Along with his words, notifications about the BOSS being defeated and the completed Chapter rang.
[ "Congratulations to Player "RODNEY STRING, SONYA REID, ASQA STARR, ERIC HANSEN, MONA COXX, and REED RIVERA" for defeating the BOSS "THE DEVOURER."" ]
[ "Rewards for defeating the BOSS sent to Inventory." ]
[Rewards: 10,000 Exp, 10,000 Coins. ]
[ "The Second Chapter: Unbearable Hunger has been completed." ]
After that, there were cheers because they had Leveled up.
Clyde just watched from afar with a flat expression. After using [Skill: Inspection], Clyde could see that they had leveled up to Level 43-45.
The increase was indeed quite far compared to their previous Level, but their Level was still far below him.
Clyde deactivated [Skill: Inspection] and joined them.
"Let's go back to the motel," Clyde said.
His words were like pouring water on a raging fire, they all stopped their celebration of success and turned to Clyde.
"Why do we have to rush? Can you let us enjoy this moment first?" Sonya said with a slightly irritated face.
Clyde blinked his eyes slightly confused. "I thought you wanted to take a shower soon."
Clyde said while looking at them all. The stinking and loathsome purple liquid almost covered their entire bodies.
But they didn't seem to care about that because they were immersed in a feeling of relief after successfully defeating the monster.
Among them, was only Clyde whose body was clean without being exposed to the purple liquid. It was obvious because he was just standing far away from where they were fighting and just watching.
They conveyed their feelings of annoyance to Clyde who was in that clean state. Various kinds of annoyed words came out but Clyde didn't care about them.
Clyde shook his head, not wanting to put up with their bullshit anymore. He turned and walked first to leave the place.
After a while, they finally stopped the argument that was indeed not making sense. Then walk following Clyde. At this time it is better to clean themselves first.
On the other hand, while the others were walking away, Rodney remained where he was with his eyes wide open staring at the text in front of his eyes. Something that only he could see for himself.
[ Congratulations! You have accomplished an extraordinary task! ]
[ You have landed the last hit that killed The Devourer! ]
[ New Title Unlocked: The Devourer Killer (Lv.1) ]
[ Title Effect: Grants you the ability to absorb the power of other beings for yourself. How much power you can absorb and how long you can use it depends on the Level of the [Title]. ]
A sly smile formed on Rodney's lips. This [Title] was something he had been aiming for from the start. With the ability to absorb the opponent's power, he overpowers them.
"Hey, Rodney! What are you doing?" Reed shouted for him when he realized Rodney was not around them.
"I'm coming!" Rodney replied and immediately walked after them.
When he walked back together with them, Rodney immediately acted as if nothing had happened to him.
He shared his happy feelings with them about how he was the one who managed to land the last hit that killed the monster in the end.
Rodney, of course, never mentioned the different rewards he got for landing a last hit on that monster. He'll keep it to himself until later.
Rodney's eyes then shifted to Clyde who was walking the furthest ahead.
With his new [Title] ability, Rodney was confident that he could beat Clyde if he played his cards well.
'He's arrogant enough to stay out of the fight as if he's already strong enough. He doesn't know what he's done.'
Rodney laughed inwardly. Soon the day would come when Clyde could no longer act like he was the strongest of them all.
Now there was only one day left until this Selection Stage appeared. Rodney has a plan for the sixth day because only he knows what will happen on the last day.
The Second Chapter is finished. They all share the same sense of relief. Even Clyde who basically didn't do anything.
Even though they had gotten a lot of experience from a BOSS just now, they couldn't afford to be careless because this wasn't over yet.
So, what they are planning is the same thing. They will clean up and then take a short break. After that, they will take the Night Quest as usual.
They must be tired. But they know that they can only rest when they complete the Night Quest.
~~~
Time just flew by. They have all finished cleaning up and having dinner now. The effects of the hunger are now gone as the Second Chapter ended.
"Let's go," Rodney said.
They went out into the motel lobby to wait for the Quest Carrier to arrive.
After that, the same Quest Carrier as the one who came to them before arrived, and they immediately took a Quest with the highest Rank.
But even though it was the highest Ranked Quest, it was quite easy. They just had to kill all the remaining Wendigos in the entire city.
The total amount is 160 Wendigos. And the gain of Exp will be spread evenly.
Clyde also took this Quest. He thought it was better than just staying in his room.
In this Quest, they divided the team into three so they could finish it quickly. Rodney is on a team with Eric, Reed with Mona, Clyde with Sonya, and Asqa.
Nobody rejected the idea so they immediately dispatched to go scatter and kill the remaining Wendigos.
Asqa and Sonya feel a strange sense of awkwardness when they're with Clyde.
Though they were not separated for too long. But they both felt that Clyde was a stranger they met for the first time.
They both didn't know why they felt something like that. It felt like Clyde was already too high a place for them to reach.
"So uhh... What did you do this afternoon?" Sonya asked to try to get rid of this awkward feeling.
"I killed some monsters. You know, the usual stuff," Clyde replied.
"O-Oh... Okay." Sonya said. "Asqa and I just heard a roar in the distance. So it was you, huh?"
Clyde turned and looked at Asqa and Sonya. A few moments later he asked. "Do you guys want to buy a new Skill?"
Sonya and Asqa's eyes immediately opened wide.
"You know there's a Skill Purchasing Machine around here?" Asqa asked.
"Yeah." Clyde nodded. "Follow me."
So Clyde showed him the way to where he had found the Skill Purchasing Machine at the subway station.
On the way, Clyde invites them in to check out some suspicious-looking buildings.
"You know that Wendigos like being in dark rooms?" Clyde asked.
Sonya and Asqa, of course, didn't know about that. So they could only follow Clyde to check out the abandoned buildings.
And sure enough. They don't even have to look too long. The Wendigos had already attacked them blindly.
Asqa and Sonya are shocked too late to move. So Clyde had to kill the first wave of Wendigos they came across.
"Careful," Clyde said.
Seeing what they were about to face, Sonya and Asqa were better prepared.
They proceed to smoothly kill all the Wendigos within the building.
After that, they went to the subway station that Clyde mentioned.
When they got there, of course, there was a Wendigo to greet them. Clyde lets Sonya kill them while he provides little assistance.
