No way, it's still going up...!?

As I acted surprised like a yasai people looking at increasing combat power, I kept watch on my total exp.

<TLN: 'Yasai' means vegetable, spelling it backward in Japanese gets you 'Saiya'.>

Below me, the adventurers are having a field day on magic beasts that have lost their sight and hearing.

Is it just me, or am I getting exp every time an adventurer killed one of those beasts...?

Menu-san, any clue?

<<When a group of people defeat magic beasts, the ratio of allocated experience points is decided depending on total damage dealt, killing blows, status effects dealt, and healing wounds dealt by magic beasts. Presently, Kajikawa Hikaru has dealt status effects on the magic beasts being eliminated, thus he is given around 20-30% of experience points granted.>>

...Eeh, what's up with that parasitic leveling tech.

Feels like cheating. Imagine getting exp even though you're nowhere near the site of combat.

But well, I'm laughing inwardly though.

Thinking again, I did charge headlong into a group of enemy on my lonesome risking my life in the process, so this kind of side benefit is just about apt.

They're all frantically fighting in the melee anyway, I'm sure they don't notice a bit of exp missing.

Some of those guys diligently count their kills though.

Now that my MP is back to full thanks to level up, there's still some things I can do here.

『Kiiiyiiiiii!!』

Whoops, multiple silhouettes are fast approaching my way while letting out familiar screeches.

Bladewings huh. The light and booming sound seemingly had little effects on them due to distance.

They're glaring hard at me looking enraged.

Just what I need. Would be real trouble for the folks below had they started carpet bombing.

I'll exterminate them here.

Bwosh

I closed in on one of those weird birds at great speed.

『Kikiiiii!?』

What a slow reaction, guess they're not used fighting against something faster than them.

I grabbed the wings from behind to seal its flight and then.

Bwosh! Fwoooooosh....
