Chapter 366 Praise From The Master

Chapter 366 Praise From The Master

Rey found it difficult to sleep that night.

And when he finally fell asleep, he had the worst of nightmares.

Needless to say, he didn't enjoy his night at all. Memories upon memories appeared to haunt him, tormenting his mind until he finally woke up.

By the time he did so... it was already morning.

"Yawwwwnn!" He rose up, stretching both arms as he welcomed the freshness of a new day.

Somehow, he felt at ease just knowing that it was morning. Something about the new day seemed to wash away the anxiety of the night.

"Ahh..."

Rey smacked his lips as he blinked several times. He wanted to make sure he was really seeing what was in front of him. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

And sure enough... he was!

"Good morning, Master! I hope you had a pleasant night."

Ater was bowing his head first thing in the morning, with one hand on his chest and the other behind him. Of course, he was still dressed in his entire black attire, but something about him seemed slick this particular morning.

Perhaps it was the bright gleam in his eyes or the cheerful smile on his face.

Either way... Ater seemed pleased just seeing Rey wake up.

"How long have you been watching me?" Rey muttered as he groggily cleaned the little tears that spilled out thanks to his yawns.

"Not for too long, Master. Just a few hours..."

Rey smiled and shook his head a little. In all honesty, it felt nice having someone dote over him like this.

'When did he start acting like my parent?' He mused and shook his head.

"You should stop the stalker behavior, Ater."

The moment he said this, Ater's face fell slightly, which caused Rey to quickly rethink his words.

'Did I hurt his feelings? Does he even have feelings?' He sighed and shook his head once again.

Ater was a chaotic entity. He was the worst kind of evil, even the System confirmed that much. Having him around was incredibly advantageous, but Rey had to wonder if he could treat Ater like how he would treat a normal person.

'Well, he is my Familiar, after all. I don't think I should treat him poorly.'

Not after a job well done the previous night.

"You did well last night, Ater. Just as you promised, no denizen of the capital died."

"Your praises are too much, Master. I only did what was expected of me." Ater bowed his head even more deeply.

'What was expected of you, huh? Can't you just take the compliment?'

Rey cracked a slightly wide smile and decided not to bother himself with the details.

"Do you desire any reward?" He asked.

Ater seemed to bow even deeper for some reason, after hearing the question.

"I am not deserving of such."

'Really? Welp, I guess that's fi—'

"Although, if you insist, there is indeed something I would like very much."

'It looks like I was able to grow stronger...' Rey smiled wryly.

His Stats had increased quite a bit, and other than Leveling Up from the S-Tier Monster and the scum in the Dark Gathering, it was also a product of his [Carnage] Skill.

'How many... have I killed?'

The answer was presented to him in a perfect format.

'I see...' Rey's expression appeared a little downcast as he looked at the numbers.

He wasn't particularly bothered about the number of people he had killed, as his eyes were focused on something else entirely.

'So this is the value of a thousand lives. It's quite small.'
