Chapter 56: Exp Farming
Damien sat amidst the corpse littered forest area with a smug look on his face. By himself, he'd managed to slay seventy Grade Six demons and what could be said? He was proud of himself.
In front of directly was seventy dark glowing orbs. Seventy essence cores he'd taken from the slain demons. "That wasn't so bad."
"Seventy kills in the last five hours." Damien had been going at it nonstop until he ran out of demons to slay.
Still, he'd not exhausted himself fully. "I don't know if there's anything like a peak Grade Six being, but that's definitely where I fall." Damien picked up one of the essence cores and began to absorb the essence from within it with the aid of his skill (Essence Devourer).
"Oh! The ranking is different for humans." Damien chuckled as he remembered humans were ranked completely different from demons and mana beasts.
He looked around for a little longer before giving a command tomhia system.
"Summon Luton, will you?"
«Summoning Luton, the Stellar Slime…»
«-100 units of Magic Essence!»
The familiar blue shimmering portal opened in the air close to Damien and from.it descended adorable red Slime.
«Luton Summoned!»
Damien received a notification from his system right after the blue eclosedd up and vanished just as it had appeared.
The moment Luton touched the ground, it began moving toward its summoner, bouncing up and down until it jumped onto Damien's chest.
"It's been a while huh?" Damien smiled rubbing his hand on his slime's smooth surface. "I prepared a meal for you." Damien smiled as he presented the corpses around them to Luton.
The summon wasted no time devouring the first demon.
«Grade Six Demon devoured! 80.5 more for Luton to advance!»
«Grade Six Demon devoured! 80 more for Luton to advance!»
«Grade Six Demon devoured! 79.5 more for Luton to advance!»
Seeing how the counter was in halves, Damien was quick to conclude. "They're lacking essence cores so you're only being given half of what you'd normally get. That sounds completely accurate and logical."
Luton however, didn't care about such. Its goal was to consume all seventy demon corpses around and sit would do just that.
«Grade Six Demon devoured! 45.5 more for Luton to advance!»
The last notification popped up as Luton devoured the last of the demon corpses and began bouncing back toward Damien.
"Good job." Damien complemented, patting the slime as it arrived close to him.
He pointed toward the cores he'd gathered and gave his command. "Save those along with the others you currently possess."
The slime obeyed, moving with a fluid grace as it leaped from one essence core to another, absorbing them into its (Universal Space) as its summoner had commanded.
After storing all of the cores, it bounced back to Damien who then picked it up, placing it on his head where it rightfully belonged.
Having found itself atop Damien's head, the slime shook itself a little in what seemes like an excited dance which made Damien laugh. "Yes, yes. Now let's go Exp farming and training."
Damien looked around one last time, taking his surroundings into consideration. "Just me and you this time." He added before running off into the distance. Hie had no destination in mind but he definitely had a goal.
A very simple and definite goal. To hunt Grade Six mana beasts and demons and gather Experience points to level up until he got tired. Until exhaustion washed over him.

"Alright, now that we've all gone through the individual tests and that all of us have fairly confirmed that although these Grade Seven mana beasts are not that threatening, I'll begin the performance ranking." Instructor Kade announced, standing in front of his students.
Just a handful like Damon were perfectly fine while there were others who could manage themselves. Even with the bruises over their skin and the exhaustion on their faces, they stood their ground. As for the rest, they weren't standing around. The injuries they suffered from their battle were somewhat serious and they were being attended to.
As the remaining students stood in front of Instructor Kade, he began listing the top five students who'd performed well in the combat training.
"If you're called, step forward." The man informed them before he actually called out the names in ascending order. "From the fifth to the first ranked performance in the training.
"Anaya Stokeshorn."
The peach-haired girl in Damon's class quickly stepped forward with a smile as she heard her name being called.
"Jake Sullivhan."
Another boy, average looking and mostly ignored stepped forward, drawing a few whispers from the other studemts.
"I didn't even know we had a student like that in the class."
"He's usually the first to leave the class immediately the lecture is over so it's almost impossible to see him." Another student countered but regardless of their discussion, the name calling continued.

"Allea Mordog."
A brown haired girl with graceful curves and a warm smile that never left her face walked out of the group as well. This one was well known in class.
"Daveon Acheon." Although the Acheon family was well known even more than the Terrace family because of their numbers, none of them had suspected that a member of their class was a member of the family.
Roll calling wasn't a thing in their class as students attendance was marked by a magical detector that had all their mana signatures registered to it. The moment a student walked past two door into the class, it was recorded and the moment they walked out again, it would also be recorded.
Because of this, despite spending so long in the academy, not many of them knew the last names of their other classmates except those who'd been nice enough to introduce themselves or like Damon, cause trouble.
Daveon Acheon, a black haired young boy was neither of those. He was reserved. Obeying the call, be walked outside to join the other three students who'd been called.
"Damon Terrace." Instructor Kade called the last name, the student who'd ranked first in performance and it was no doubt who everyone believed it would be.
"As expected. His performance was overwhelming. No one could beat that." One of the student chuckled.
As Damon made his way to the front. Instructor Kade announced to the five student. "You five shall be each receive two Grade Seven essence core which you can use to further boost your essence cores."
"As for the first position, he'll be getting one Grade Six essence core."
