[Congratulations on your level up!]

[Current Level: Lv3]

[Experience Needed for Next Level: 75/300]

[Unlocks at Lv5: Number of contractable Eclipses +1]

The amount of experience points doesn't solely depend on the strength of the monsters but also on their status attributes. Even though Callewa's gang members on paper aren't as strong as the goblins from the caves, the experience they provide to Renji during the initial stages is quite good.

A group of around fifteen gang members allowed Renji to level up once more and even have some leftover experience. The only regret was that when Renji checked the experience log, he indeed did not receive any experience from the leader, Grey Wolf.

Previously, Renji had intentionally let Eileen stay in place and did not interfere in his fight with Grey Wolf. One of the reasons was to test this. And the results once again confirmed that his leveling system strictly follows the underlying logic of "Fallen Chronicles"

He can't gain experience directly. Only when the contracted Eclipses participate can he obtain experience from the kills. The girl did land a punch on Grey Wolf at the beginning, but this was deemed insufficient to be considered as participation in the battle.

Renji remembers that in the background of "Fallen Chronicles", the explanation for this setting was that the nature of experience points is actually a form of Tainted Miasma.

When Eclipses engage in combat, their bodies continuously accumulate this Tainted Miasma. As the "protagonist", he can draw out the Miasma from them through a "contract", transforming it into his own power.Continue reading on N0 VêLbIn

This explains why he can't gain experience when fighting alone. It also explains why, during the previous inspection by the knight squad on him and Eileen, especially considering Eileen is an Eclipse, her Tainted Miasma value was still at an extremely low number.

"I really need to level up quickly!" Renji, sitting in the van, couldn't help but sigh deeply.

In his hands, he played with the business card of the young church knight "Tamic", contemplating whether or not to inquire about some of Callewa's bases. He then considered taking Eileen to eradicate a few gang lairs before leaving the area.

It wasn't just about the minimal attribute points from leveling up. After all, even though the protagonist's growth coefficient is even lower than a two-star, a mosquito's leg, no matter how small, is still meat.

As Eileen tried to join them, Brian stopped her and silently led her away.

Renji expected this and didn't react, just kept chatting with the others.

Meanwhile, Eileen followed Brian into a soundproof room next door.

Slam!*

The door shut. Alone, Brian stared at Eileen, who looked a bit nervous and avoided his gaze.

After a pause, Brian asked seriously,

"Eileen, look at me. Are you an Eclipse?"

"Huh? Are you joking? Why would I be one?"

"Really?" Brian pressed.

"Of course! Didn't you see the church's results earlier? I have even less of Miasma than you!"

Eileen stood her ground, using their earlier test as her defense, leaving Brian without a comeback.

Finally, the bearded man sighed,

"You know, Eileen, I was great friends with your dad. But unlike him, I wasn't lucky enough to find someone like Nolan. I've never married. So, after your dad passed, I've always thought of you as my own daughter."

"Why are you being so dramatic all of a sudden? We're not parting ways or anything!" Eileen shot back.

"Aren't we?" Brian hinted.
