Rise Of The Hoarder

Chapter 153 Exceeding The Limit



Chapter 153 Exceeding The Limit

“Should I summon the rest of them next?!” I smiled excitedly.

Of course, my passive Skill <Mine Alone> had already swept the area clean of all the Demon Cores belonging to the Demons I slew.

Checking my Status Window, I noticed I was already over Level 190. With a few Level Ups, I would go beyond 200. It truly was incredible, how extremely efficient it was to kill stronger enemies.

“I really should just summon them all at once!” I grinned, giving the order.

>SHIIIIIII<

The Hobgoblin Warriors, Archers, and Tankers all appeared at once, displaying a total number of over four thousand.

[SYSTEM ALERT!]

<Danger!> <Danger!!>

Two danger signs… that didn’t spell a good sign. While I was confident I could still emerge victoriously, I decided it wasn’t worth the risk to push myself to the limit. There was no profit in being so exhausted in the morning

“<Recall>” I muttered.

Instantly, a great deal of the Demons vanished, halving their numbers.

The group before me was now a little over two thousand. Of course, they were a mix of Warriors, Tankers, and Archers, since two thousand Warriors would still be an annoying group to battle.

“Let’s do this!” I grinned..

Tankers had high physical resistance, so my claw attacks and spikes wouldn’t be too effective on them.

“Welp, I suppose it’s about time…” My thoughts trailed.

I had gotten enough exercise anyway. It was time to subdue the Demons with full force. A wide smile formed on my face as I was giddy with excitement.

“GRAWWWKKIIIIKKK!!!” The annoyed Demons all cried angrily at me.

Using my heightened speed, I dashed backward and created a large distance between us.

“<Camouflage>.” I grinned.

As soon as I activated this Skill, I summoned a few hundred Demon Cores and exploded them amid the Hobgoblins. In a flash, the Demons began perishing one after the other.

Thanks to my <Camouflage> Skill and the smoke caused by the blast, the Demons couldn’t navigate their way to find me and perished within the smoke.

Some grew desperate and began launching their projectiles at random locations. Some flew at me but were easily bounced off due to the defense I had in place.

‘I should go for that chain reaction again…’ I reasoned with a pure evil grin.

However, the party wasn’t so much fun with only so few attending. I decided to summon even more Hobgoblins, leaving only a few reserves to keep for something later.

With more of their forces appearing, the Hobgoblins appeared more confident of their victory.

“GARARAAAAKKKK!!!” They cried into the air.

Unfortunately, their voices were cut short by the glowing rocks that shone ever so brightly underneath them.

Their attention went to the Demon Cores that illuminated the ground full of evaporating blood. Before they figured out the meaning behind the glow that increased rapidly, an eruption followed

>BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

>BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

>BOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!<

Sparks of devastating explosions occurred without end. Other than a few hundred Demon Cores I had already stored for myself later, the rest blew up in succession, killing the Demons as I merely watched.

I didn’t even need to lift a finger or summon any weapon to subjugate these monsters. The higher ranked a Demon was, the better the quality of the Demon Core they dropped. The higher the quality, the more powerful any blast caused by them would be.

Using the Hobgoblin (Warrior) Demon Cores to initiate massive eruptions was far more effective than any I had seen in the past. Their high stats were not for nothing.

[You Have Leveled Up] Icons filled my line of sight as I grinned and laughed, enjoying the fireworks that exploded before me.

A blast, two blasts, multiple blasts. Deaths resulted in even more deaths that it was pointless to count how many died. It all happened so very quickly that I didn’t have to grow bored before all the Demons were exterminated.

“Haaaa… so this is the end, uh? I muttered, watching the devastated plains.

Charred remains of the explosions scorched the ground for a long distance and no trace of the dead Demons or even their claws was left behind. They had all been consumed by the great destruction.

“Welp… that was fun,” I commented, crashing on my butt to rest.

My body ached slightly from exerting myself so quickly, but compared to yesterday it was really nothing.

In no time, the lingering exhaustion would leave. Lying flat on the ground as I faced the sky, I gave a satisfied sigh. What a great day this was, for my morning to begin in such a way. And so, after staying in that single position for a few minutes, my energy was restored.

Not only that, but the aches I felt had also vanished. I raised my body and sat upright. There was something that kept popping up, disturbing my little rest, so I decided to finally check it out.

Eyeing the system panel from the corner of my eye, I saw the golden window automatically move to the center of my eyes where I could see it more clearly.

[System Notification]

~You Have Exceeded The Required Level~

Rewards Will Be Given!

<Will you Accept The Rewards?>

[Yes] [No]

I didn’t even waste any time contemplating. Who would do such a thing when a reward being given by the system itself was guaranteed.

“Heck yeah!”

[System Notification]

<You Have Accepted Your Rewards>

~ Secondary Job Can Now Be Selected~

<You May Select At Your Convenience>

[.]

My eyes widened in excitement. This was incredible! Having a Primary Job had given me so many benefits! I couldn’t wait to see what a Secondary Job would do.

Still, since I could select it anytime I wanted, I decided to put it off for now and check my other rewards.

[Additional Rewards]

~10 Skill Slots Have Been Awarded~

~1,000 Karma Points Have Been Awarded~

[.]

My face twitched in excitement and I could feel my heart racing as soon as I saw this. Incredible didn’t even begin to describe how I was currently feeling.

I had been steadily racking up Karma Points for so long, and I was at barely 900 after even this last match, yet 1,000 were just given to me. It was unbelievable.

Not only that, but I was given 10 more Skill Slots! So far I had only obtained 15, but to think 10 would fall on my laps like this…

“Well, considering I wasn’t supposed to have achieved this much so soon I guess this reward is appropriate…”

I had achieved something that wasn’t supposed to exist at this point in time. Not to sound conceited, but I was probably the only Gifted to have come this far… my Level that is…
