Chapter 21：Crazy leveling speed

Looking at the stats of the Elite mutated boss, Williard was shocked, not only it was because it's a mutated monster that wasn't supposed to arrive three days later but also because it's a level 89 monster, that was supposed to be in level 85 zone, not in level 75 zone.

At first, he thought of leaving them to their own ends but when he remembered they helped him out at the Sky Castle dungeon, Williard sighed, "fine. Let's just help them with this and be done with it." He looked at Remia, "let's go and help them out."

As she nodded and dashed towards them, Williard followed her from behind. Meanwhile, Flame Emperor was struggling with tanking the boss alone and kept on drinking HP Potion every 10 seconds but still, even with using all the skills, he found the rate of HP depletion is greater than the recovery rate. Looking at the situation, Snow Dew started to worry about her father, even though it's a game because, in her eyes, her father is superhuman, who was able to accomplish all the tasks.

Just then, suddenly, both of them heard a roar of human from behind. The White Tiger, Casseri roared and jumped above him to their behind as a light engulfed Remia who used provoke. Since Remia is a lot stronger than Flame Emperor and a greater threat, Casseri ignored him and attacked Remia. As they wondered who is this giant tiger is attacking since they can't see her as the White tiger is covering her.

Just then, 2487, 2501, 2499, 2513, 2468, 2488, 2501, etc… numbers in green color, which represents healing, appeared on Flame Emperor's head continuously for 25 times, recovering more than 60,000 HP in 30 seconds, surprising the both of them.

Snow Dew was shocked to seeing him as he appeared before them while healing Flame Emperor 5 more times, recovering him to full health, "Big Brother Time Traveler? What are…?" Williard interrupted her, "let's talk about it, later, after defeating this Giant cat. But first, disband your party and join ours."

As Flame Emperor nodded and disbanded without any questions, Williard sent party requests to both of them. Seeing Remia's level, Snow Dew was stupefied, "Eh? Level 116? I thought my dad was the highest level player. And you are already level 57? It's only been like one and half hour since we parted away and you already leveled up 20 times?" Williard replied, "Well, it happened that way. By the way, Remia is an NPC, not a player."

Meanwhile, Flame Emperor looked at him and thought, "already a noble, eh? First, that fire arrow, then, freezing the monster and now healing. This seemingly ordinary-looking player is a mysterious one for sure." Without expressing his thoughts, Flame Emperor said, "we can chat later. First, let's help out Miss Remia and defeat the boss."

While the three of them fighting the boss, Williard, once again stayed in the sidelines and chilled out while recovering his MP, which was almost depleted with healing Flame Emperor, earlier. Since an Elite mutated monster is a lot weaker than Heroic boss and only possess the same amount of HP as a Heroic Boss, it became very easy with the three of them attacking it. With combined attacks, the boss was dead within an hour.

All three of them received a notification.

"Casseri is dead. You gained 68,736 EXP."

As Snow Dew complained, "It's not much even with a bonus for so much of HP," Williard replied, "it isn't a Heroic boss. So, it's normal." Flame Emperor then said, "thank you for the help. You can take all the drops but can I have that tooth it dropped? It's our quest item."

Only then, Williard looked at the drops that have one Gold grade equipment and a book, the rest of the three is Bronze equipment along with potions and coins. After giving him the tiger tooth, Williard asked, "by the way, weren't monsters supposed to stay in their territory and can only chase for a distance? How did a level 89 boss end here, anyway?"

Flame Emperor sighed, "It isn't much. We attacked her without knowing it just went through labor. So, when we attacked it, the cub ended up getting in the way and got killed. The next thing we know is, the elite boss' HP suddenly increased by 10 times the amount and started chasing us all the way to this zone. Thank you for the help, again."

Williard replied, "Let's just consider us even. You helped out in the dungeon, after all." Flame Emperor patted his shoulder and said, "It seems your personality is quite different than I thought, young man. Anyway, we'll be going." Then, he looked at Snow Dew, "let's go."

Snow Dew waved her hand with a big smile, "see you again, Big Brother Time Traveler." After they went on their way, Williard inspected at the gold grade boots.

After throwing all the equipment in the inventory, aside from the common and Iron equipment, they proceeded towards level 80 zone while massacring the level 75 normal monsters along the way. After reaching level 80 zone, Williard spoke, "Remia, let's just level up here, for today." Then, started leveling up there while killing the normal 80 monsters. Even though the normal monsters have around 80K HP, for someone like Remia, they are still like little children compared to adults." As each mob gets killed, Williard started to receive his EXP share for every 20 seconds like 12123, 12431, 11921, 12231, 11798, 11999, etc…

Nine hours later,

"Congratulations, you leveled up. You reached Level 91."

With a big smile on his face, Williard saw the City rankings.

East Ocean City Rankings:

1. Unnamed: Level 91

2. Flame Emperor: Level 76

3. Snow Dew: Level 73

4. Unnamed: Level 69

5. Unnamed: Level 69

6. Unnamed: Level 68

7. White Tiger: Level 68

8. Heavenly King: Level 65

9. Unnamed: Level 63

10. Unnamed: Level 63

Williard mumbled with a smile, "this is the power of having a guard above level 100. I only a few hours to become the number one rank. I guess finding the legends turned my fortune completely." Then, he looked at Remia and said, "Let's go and look for a Heroic boss in this zone. I need good equipment." Then, after searching around all the level 80 zone, they proceeded towards level 85.

Thirty minutes, inside the mountains, they stood before a small lake where he saw several Elite grade White tigers roaming around the lake. Looking at that, Williard mumbled, "I guess, this is where they encountered an Elite boss. It's really their worst luck to face a mother tiger of all the ones they can find here. But I can't see the Heroic boss, here. Did I leave any other place? Hmm, is it in the lake, perhaps?"

Then, he said, "Remia, first, let's clear the Elite ones, here." Since there's a chance of mutation now, Williard didn't take the chance and finished them carefully after luring them one by one away. Since each only has around 900K HP, it took only an hour to clear all six of them before proceeding towards the lake.

Williard flapped his wings and started flying towards the center of the lake. Looking down from 35 m in the air above the lake, Williard grabbed his level 80 bronze bow and pulled the string. An arrow made of Ice started to form between his fingers. He aimed at the center of the lake and shot the arrow.
