Chapter 15: Skill Upgraded: Soul Drain leveled up to level 2
The explosion sent a wave of heat and sparks flying in all directions, but Ben had anticipated this. He swiftly manoeuvred away from the blast radius, avoiding any harm. As the fragments of the firefly dispersed into the air, he felt a surge of satisfaction. Another successful kill

"If there is no risk, then there are no rewards. I have to do this," Ben said with a sharp smile on his face. He was feeling fear and excitement at the same time, a feeling similar to bunji jumping. He was nervous; his brain was warning him of any fatal risk, but his heart was pumping in excitement, adrenaline coursing throughout his body.
"Is this what adventure feels like?" Ben asked himself, looking at the wave of fireflies coming towards him, attracted by the explosion, to exact revenge on killing his kin.
"System, Pour all my stat points into agility!" Ben commanded with a determined face before he launched towards the group of fireflies with the maximum speed he could fly at.
Ben had gained a total of 1.0 free stat points from the two times he levelled up. But since he was unable to decide where to put the stat points, he left the free stat points to be used in the future.

"LET'S GO!!" Ben shouted in excitement as he launched towards the bunch of fireflies at enhanced speed. The fireflies were already fast as compared to Ben's speed, but now with his increased agility, they were just free kills in front of Ben.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Continued blasting sounds followed as the bunch of fieflies launched a luminious neon-coloured liquid towards Ben.
"Too Slow!" Ben shouted, dodging each and every neon ball and closing up the distance to the nearest firefly. With its huge margin of speed, the firefly could barely see a blurry figure passing by before its body was cleanly cut in half.
"Booom!" A small, explosive sound reverberated through the air before the lifeless body of a fly faltered towards the ground.
"It's more tough to use soul drain than kiiling these things," Ben said, flying towards the falling firefly before he used his soul drain skill.

"Next target," Benm said, taking a sharp turn and flying upwards while dodging the upcoming neon balls shot from behind. And before the fireflies could mark their enemy's location, a bunch of small explosions sounded in the air as the burned bodies of fireflies kept falling from the sky.

Ben continued to slaughter the fireflies, as many fireflies kept coming at him from the sound of the explosion, and soon enough, the large tree, decorated in bulbs, became a fireshow, followed by crackles and blasts.
..
"Hey bro! Why do I feel like there is a fireshow going on in the sky?" The human next to the campfire asked, disturbed from his sleep by the constant sound of explosions.
"Shut up! Your drunk." The other human said,turning around and changing his position of sleep.
"I guess you are right. Tsk-" The first human chuckled before he closed his eyes again.
..
...
While on top of the tree, Ben kept killing the fireflies until his stamina started to take a toll on his body, slowing down his speed and decreasing his strength.
[Host! Your stamina has reached a critical level. If you don't take a rest now, then your HP will keep decreasing.]
"Thanks for the advice system." Ben said, huffing and panting, sitting on a leaf while looking at the group of fireflies endlessly coming towards him.
"But I STILL NEED TO GAIN MORE EXPERIENCE points." Ben shuddered, grating all his strength at once as he flew towards the mutant fireflies using all his speed, Slashing a firefly in half before he crashed on the ground, just next to Bonefire.
"Boom!!" A blasting sound, followed by a bunch of notifications on Ben's screen. Although there were still a lot of fireflies attempting to kill Ben, none of them dared to close up the distance next to Bonefire.

[Soul Drain skill levelled up to level 2]
[Soul Drain: Can now be used from a metre distance from the enemy killed.]
The sheer exhilaration of battle coursed through Ben's veins as he lay on the ground, panting and covered in the remnants of defeated fireflies. He couldn't help but grin triumphantly as he assessed his progress. The once tranquil scene had transformed into a battlefield, scattered with the charred bodies of the fireflies he had vanquished.
As his stamina gradually recovered, Ben slowly stood up, his wings buzzing with anticipation. He felt the surge of energy that came with levelling up, his stats improving, and his abilities growing stronger.
"Level 9... I've come a long way," Ben muttered to himself, his voice filled with a mixture of pride and determination.
"However, this is most likely the end of my adventure for today." He finished by looking at the red rising sun from the east before turning his gaze to the two sleeping bandits next to the bonefire.
"Just a little more. Sleep peacefully while you can. Your demise will be more brutal than you could have imagined in your wildest dreams." Ben spoke in a serious tone, emitting a dense killing intent.
