Chapter 57 - Fast Leveling

I glanced at my surroundings as my heart began to beat faster, the beasts continuously ran towards us at great speeds, jumping with great force, their muscular legs reaching us and unleashing strong kicks wherever they were not absolutely decimated by our long-ranged attacks.
We were currently in the middle of a clearing within the large forest, now that the poisonous mist was gone, we were more or less able to walk through here without worrying about getting poisoned, but the monsters seemed to be just as big of an army as the spiders!
They were of low rank, but their jumps carried such momentum that sometimes they were able to catch up to us above the ground, evading while being in midair is actually quite hard if you don't want to lose your balance and be sent into the ground by the momentum and weight of your own body.
Flight grant us the ability to float, but it doesn't make us weightless, it is weird how it works, but I suppose it uses Ervas Telekinesis, to form an invisible coverture over our bodies, which carries our weight upwards.
If we lose balance this power cannot contain our weight completely and we might end up falling.
Nonetheless, we were just having tiny mishaps, because we were pretty much cleaning the floor with these guys.
After a whole week of polishing my power and then the last battle boosting them even further, I was completely decimating anything that came my way while grabbing anything they dropped.
Large groups of crickets targeted me the most, seemingly because they were sensitive to mana, and saw me as the biggest source of it, trying to kill me to cleverly make my summons disappear.
But you are merely some bugs, what can you even do against me?
I might have gotten rather arrogant there, but getting arrogant is part of enjoying your strength, even more when it means that I can continue to grow in strength.
I suppose my mindset since the first days have changed, I have certainly become someone different, the changes of my body, my level ups, becoming a Dhampir, and more all had changed my mentality a bit, but deep down I know I am still the same as ever, I am simply doing the best I can to adapt, even if it means getting a bit cocky so I won't feel any pity for these creatures I am slaughtering at this very moment.
Five Crickets rushed towards me, jumping incredibly high and trying to kick me.
However, I quickly conjured the power within my Staff, combining it with Sanguine Blade, as my staff suddenly shaped itself as a large blade made of phantasmal blue flames and dark winds spiraling together into a blazing tornado.
I unleashed a powerful slash using my Black Knight Magic Weapon Technique, enhancing the power of the whole Skill effect combination even further beyond!
SLAAAASH!
A powerful spiraling slash was unleashed from my staff, as the blue flames and the black winds spiraled together, reaching the crickets, and burning them alive while pushing them below, their shrieks of agony were music to my ears, I believe I have become quite ruthless.
Well, perhaps they were music to my ears due that each shriek meaning some more EXP, Skill Points, and dropped items for me.
"Grryyysshaaa…!"
Their burnt bodies fell over the ground motionlessly, as I quickly grabbed the gold coins, soul spheres, and other items that could have been possibly dropped, while looking at my other gains.
Ding!

Oh? A double level up, it seems that I killed more than I thought, as I glanced around me and found a few tens of corpses, my slash got through not only this little group but also impacted the trees, burning them into ashes alongside the other flesh crickets that were about to jump over me.
However, more and more of these fiends emerged, I quickly generated Blazing Wind Jewel Bombs using Mana and began to throw them around, decimating the large army that was constantly marching against us… just how many of these creatures were here? Well, I am not going to complain, the more there are the better!
"GRYYSHA!"
Suddenly, a red-colored flesh cricket merged from the group I was burning alive using my blue flames and holy light beams, a large beast of around two meters, it even held a metallic carapace.
[Scarlet Armored Flesh Cricket Soldier (D-Grade+++)]
Interesting! So they got variants too. Let's see how much EXP you give to me, my friend!
The beast quickly rushed towards me, jumping, and using its powerful armored legs to unleash several kicks in the air, releasing powerful shockwaves coated with a red-colored energy, which were fired at me as if they were magic bullets!
I quickly released two slashes using Sanguine Sword and Blue Flames combined with Dark Winds, unleashing powerful slashes that reached the energy kicks the beast threw at me, intercepting them and making them detonate ahead of time in midair!
BOOM! SLASH! BOOM! SLASH!
I quickly flew around, evading the beast long-ranged energy kicks as I unleashed ten consecutive Mana Bullet Blasts, which flew incredibly fast and as if they were shotguns, they began to impact the beast powerful metallic armor!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
"GRYAR!"
The beast saw its armor being smashed, as I flew towards it and readied a powerful Holy Light Beam, releasing it right in front of its face!
FLASH!
"Gryyyyyyyhhh…!"
BOOOM!!!
The beam impacted right over it, as the holy beam burnt through its body and metallic armor, throwing it down below!
Clash!
I flew towards it as I saw it trying to stand up, the bastard was still alive somehow!
I quickly unleashed my trump card, Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis, as the wave of electricity hit the beast, paralyzing it on the spot!
SPARK!
"Gryar!"
"Dissapear!" I roared, as I released a wave of blue flames combined with dark winds from my staff, hitting the beast directly and burning it alive!
"GGRRYSSHAAA…!"
Alongside its hellish shriek, a wave of EXP was infused into my body.
[You gained EXP]
[Your Level has increased to Level 33!]
[You gained Skill Points!]
