And of course, getting this much experience could only mean one thing…
[Your level has increased to level 21, granting you one skill point and boost in stats]
…
[Your level has increased to level 22, granting you one skill point and boost in stats]
[Experience: 27617/415000]
'Hell yeah!' Stark fell to the ground on his butt trying to catch his breath after fighting, after all, even summoning the clone and having it use skills took up aura, meaning that it was reducing his stamina regardless.
'Status Window…' he thought while looking at the sky, and there the panel appeared.
…
[Level:] 22
[Health:] 3622/8500
[Bloodline:] Human
[Class:] Domination
[Talent:] Chosen one
[Attributes:] Strength 876; Speed 989; Mind/Soul 1167; Stamina 764; Defense 798
[Skills:] Spatial Inventory; Class Wheel; Perception; Domination lv8; Focus lv5; Aura Smash lv6; Clone Frenzy lv5; Invincible Dodge lv2; Double Assault lv1…
…
[Skill Points: 3 Available]
Stark sighed, taking a moment to assess his current skills and attributes.
But that's when he noticed it.
'Wait a minute… Domination is at level 8… and I have three skill points…' it didn't take long for him to realize what this meant.
[You have upgraded 'Domination' to level 9!]
'…'
[You have upgraded 'Domination' to level 10!]
[The skill 'Domination' has been MAXXED OUT!]
In that moment, Stark felt a surge of power course through his veins. The Domination skill had reached its highest current possible level, and the aura he emanated was now stronger than ever before.
…
[Skill: Domination lv10 (MAX)]
[Description: Your class resonates with you, the power you have acquired through all your fights vibrates through your body, and your aura is now stronger than ever before, you are now allowed to place a shield around your body that blocks 5K points of damage]
[Activating your aura in front of an enemy or person has a chance to cause the 'fear' status effect if they are weaker than you are or easily intimidated]
[All your skills and stats have evolved (even though the level has no changed, they are all stronger)]
…
"This is... incredible," Stark muttered to himself, still in disbelief. The learning curve was becoming more and more steep, but he was determined to overcome any obstacle in his path.
And suddenly…
~BEEP, BEEP, BEEP~
His communication badge was beeping again, meaning that there was yet another call from Vex or the other members of the 'Crimson Moon Squad'.
He was still sitting on the ground as he answered the call by clicking on the badge.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO?" He heard Lana's voice shouting at him.
"What do you mean? I didn't do anything-" Stark, confused, tried to defend himself.
But…
"Stark… I… everyone saw it."
"Saw what?"
"YOUR FIGHT!"
"…" Stark tilted his head, how was that possible, there couldn't be that many people around him now, could there be?
But of course, it was just that Stark didn't understand how this world worked.
"Secret Rifts are different from normal ones, we don't know how or why, but to make it easier to show your feats to the world, well… every time someone does something that is deemed incredible by the rift, it is shown to everyone…" Lana sighed, explaining to Stark about things he didn't know about.
***
Everywhere in the rift, the moment Stark defeated the three forest guardians.
A panel appeared in front of everyone.
[The forest guardians (Lv40 ELITE Fire Fox, Vine Gorilla and Water Bear) have been defeated by REDACTED!]
[Unlocking a replay for credit purposes!]
And thus, everyone inside the rift had seen the fight from its start to finish, whether it was Stark starting off against the Fire Fox, the guardian calling another one as reinforcement, Stark running off to the noise he heard.
Or… most impressive of all: Stark destroying the guardians with his sheer hands and only a few attacks.
The combo against the Vine Gorilla left many speechless as they couldn't understand how he had gone from being outmatched in every aspect to suddenly gain the ability to do that.
And how in the fuck did a clone defeat an elite guardian by itself?
Clones are usually used for bait, so seeing one that could actually deal decent damage was fascinating to most.
In the end, everyone had watched Stark's fight, but none of them (except those close to him) really knew who he was because of the Bunny Mask and its perk.
"Did he defeat an elite in four punches?"
"Did you see how fast he was hitting that gorilla guardian? I couldn't even see his attacks…"
"And what about the bear, it got killed by a mere clone?!"
These whispers of amazement spread like wildfire through the rift, the sheer awe in their voices as Stark's incredible feat became the talk of it.
And it wouldn't be long before all their achievements were uploaded to the internet, and for the entire world to see.
Getting popular in this world was extremely easy as long as you had the beauty or strength to do so.
"Haha~ I knew this kid was special," Vex grinned while slaying a level 45 monster with a single whip of his wielder heart.
"Hm…" Thorns was perplexed, he was supposed to be the muscles of the group, and yet somehow, Stark's damage was fairly close to what he could achieve without skills…
"…" Lana on the other hand had immediately called Stark to inform him of whatever was happening, since knowing about him, she was sure he had no idea.
And she was right, as Stark was left speechless from the news.
"Oh well… it doesn't really matter," the boy grinned, "I'll still conquer that rift by myself."
And so he ended the call.
He may not be as strong as most people on this rift, but he had the potential and skill to defeat most of them.
The Domination class truly was the strongest one…
"3 more levels and I unlock a new one though," he got up from the ground after resting for ten minutes
He was level 22, and from what he remembered, reaching level 25 meant that he would be allowed to spin the 'Class Wheel' again.
The entire rift was trying to figure out who this mysterious boy was, after all he had already caused a commotion before they even entered it since he attracted the attention of Jack, the leader of another powerful faction.
But Stark didn't care, and so he went deeper inside the Valley's Forest with a calm expression, wanting to move on to the next area and level up quick.
