Chapter 59 Level-Up Mission

From analyzing my body alone, I was able to conclude that this dramatic change must have come with a stat change.

An example of this is extensive exercise.

After 'breaking my limits,' or in other words, simply building muscle, stamina, or agility, I would gain a stat point in the respective category.

This was the case with stat points too. If I gained a stat point and happened to put it in a category, my body would change at a fundamental level, changing its structure building up from the cells to muscle and organ tissues, and finally refining the organs and muscles themselves to function more efficiently.

'If my theories about stat points are true, then I should see quite the change when it comes to my stats.'

I was left shocked once again. I couldn't even count how many times I had been left shocked due to this awakening, all I knew was that the number was beginning to reach the dozens.

'Isn't this kind of op!? And when the hell did I reach level 10?' I inwardly shouted, unaware of the gaze that lingered on me for a prolonged amount of time.

'What the hell is he looking at?' thought Blanca with crossed arms and puffed out chest.

On my side, however, I was caught off guard by another thing that appeared on the screen.

[You cannot add any additional points to strength]

[You cannot add any additional points to agility]

[You cannot add any additional points to intelligence]

[You cannot add any additional points to vitality]

'So the max is 40?'

[You must reach level 11 to increase stat points]

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

My eyes immediately lit up as I slowly turned my head towards Blanca who was huffing and puffing at the fact that I refused to acknowledge her presence.

Only when she felt my gaze did her eyes also light up like sparling stars while looking at me and asking "Are you ready to acknowledg-." She felt the question die in her throat when she felt an aura exuding out of me.

'A battle aura? No... That's just battle intent.' She thought to herself, now wearing a serious expression rather than her goofy playful, and childish one

"Blanca... How about we go out for a hunt or two?" I asked her, making her immediately push herself off the ground and stand up straight with her arms still crossed. This time, however, she let out a malicious grin, an act that solidified my previous theory on how her mentality would change every time she would morph into a different size, shape, or entity.

Usually, Blanca in her natural form would become a cold yet almost natural kind of person. Everything about her seemed authentic, but it did feel like she held a lot back.

Her smaller form on the other hand usually caused her to become more arrogant and boasting, making it annoying to be around but at the same time, less of a nuisance since she wasn't so big anymore.

Her human form seems to be the most bipolar out of all of them. From the moment my eyes landed on her, I could feel the trickery in her eyes, the outgoing aura, and even the dangerous amount of lust she was exuding.

"Right now?" She asked with a hint of excitement.

'Looks like she is a battle maniac too in this form.' I snickered to myself, completely unaware of the fact that I was acting the exact same way as her.

"Of course. But first tell me where we are and how long I had been out for."

"About a week and a half. Also, we went around the deeper areas of the forest so we are technically on the other side of the forest." She replied almost as if she was waving off the question so she could hear what we were about to do.

"Ah, I see... Alright, we should get going."

"Where?!" She shouted impatiently

"To find the dungeon of reverence." I grinned and also pushed myself off the ground.

"The dungeon of reverence? I've never heard of such a place in my life..." Blanca raised a brow, yet her excitement did not diminish. Instead, I only watched her fighting spirit soar, a reaction that made me almost forget who she was and why she was even following me.

"You shall see." I replied with an even bigger grin than before.

After our little exchange, we both left the forest with smiles on our faces. We both knew that this dungeon that I was talking about would be spectacular, but it seemed like one of us knew more than the other.

"So uhm... Where are we going?" Blanca asked while skipping alongside me.

I on the other hand seemed to have problems placing my foot in areas that wouldn't trip me over, yet over time I was slowly getting the hang of it.

However, seeing Blanca's quick mastery of her bipedal body, I could not help but grit my teeth and close my eyes for a second, remembering why I disliked her so much and who she truly was.

"Don't worry, I know where we are going..."

"Yeah, but I'd still like to know where we are going. It would be quite a shame if I were to be thrown into a trap by the man I trust so much.~"

My brows instantly furrowed while I let out a simple sigh. What was I supposed to do if this bi-... Anyway, after hearing what she had said I felt an annoying itch in my fists, something that only increased when I saw her appear a few meters in front of me and begin to stretch casually even though I knew that the intention of this action was.

Closing my eyes, I could only think of one thing as the scent of her hair wafted into my nose.

'The Lord is testing me. Whether he is testing my patience, my anger, or my self-restraint is another question all in itself... System-level up mission please'
