Chapter 40: Old Enemy



Oliver deliberately closed Kim Hana's mouth because he was actually looking at the people ahead, fighting with monsters, which consisted of various types, from Lamia, Dragozilla, and Cyclops.

Before observing them, he first landed on a branch of the tree he was aiming for.

It had many branches full of leaves so his figure was blocked from the front.

Standing there, he let go of Kim Hana's waist.

Only, the woman turned out to be even more panicked.

She looked terrified standing at such a height with such little footing.

Hastily, she held onto the branches with both hands to stabilize her posture as she stood.

She felt that she would not be able to maintain her balance if she stood there without holding on to something.

With that, she felt more comfortable so she could finally observe the people below.

When she finally saw them, she was quite surprised.

This was because the number of humans she saw was quite large, there were at least more than fifty of them.

She was finally made to realize that she was getting closer to Vera.

Even the city wall was visible in the distance.

This meant they had gone quite far from the base.

Actually, Oliver was now quite surprised.

This was because he saw Alex and his group among the people below.

The man was holding a spear made of gold, having a length exceeding his own above-average height.

He was quite ferocious as he fought, stabbing monster after monster with his spear.

Oliver suspected it was a Class B Weapon, the equivalent of the earring in his left ear.

No matter how hard the bodies of the monsters Alex fought against were, his spear easily pierced through them.

Like him, he was also shirtless, almost always disturbing the focus of the women leveling there.

'Come to think of it, Leo looks a lot like him. He's just shorter and thinner than Alex,' Oliver thought, beginning to suspect that they were siblings.

As he continued to observe Alex, he found the man seemed to keep glancing at the river, and sometimes he knitted his eyebrows.

It's like he's waiting for someone.

Maybe he was waiting for Leo. It could be that the man originally went with him then left on his own when he discovered he easily defeated the monsters.

Although the Deep Sea King knew that Leo had been killed, he probably didn't tell the Wilson Family immediately. As a Constellation, he would have been embarrassed to say that he failed to protect his tenants.

Oliver began to think about what he needed to do.

His goal was to continue his leveling, but that was impossible with so many people around.

"Mm..."

He stared at the river as an enormous vortex appeared.

From the center of the vortex, the figure of a Lamia appeared standing straight up.

It was a male Lamia with long curly hair and dark eyes, possessing a very long and large snake body.

What was most interesting was that he had a pair of black spears in his hands.

Krek! Krek!

To everyone's surprise, he stretched his neck and body, producing a bone scraping sound.

His eyes were focused on Alex, either because he had killed the most monsters or because he was also holding a spear.

When their gazes met, Alex actually immediately looked worried.

Of course, he felt like he was in serious trouble.

DING!

(Lamia Level 8 with Monster General status!)

Even Oliver who was from afar got that notification.

For him personally, the fact that General Lamia was only at Level 8 was very disappointing.

With that level, he was worried that he wouldn't get enough experience to level up. Plus, because of their similar levels, he was worried that the bonus points he would get would also be very few. After all, whenever he got bonus points, the system always talked about his level.

On the other hand, Alex should not have reached Level 8 yet, which was why he was so wary.

His hand seemed to be holding his spear tighter.

ROAR!

Suddenly the Lamia roared with his mouth.

It was rather amazing because of his human-like face yet he could roar like he was a lion.

The waves of his roar could be felt by Oliver from afar.

Shua!

He suddenly lunged towards Alex, coming out of the river so that the length of his body was revealed.

It was probably almost fifteen meters.

'Looks like he fights like a human,' Oliver thought.

His movements only became faster as he got closer to Alex.

The latter strengthened his resolve until his eyes seemed to light up while a brownish glow emanated from his body, as if reinforcing his already strong physique.

"See whose spear is stronger," he said before swinging his spear at the Lamia.

The Lamia replied with the same motion.

Only, he swung two spears at once.

Clang! Clang!

Their spears slammed into each other, producing a very loud sound.

Each of them was then pushed back with Alex further away.

"Damn it!" Alex visibly cursed.

As the Lamia lunged towards him again, he jumped backwards into the air and quite high up with his hand holding the spear pointed upwards.

From the looks of it, he was going to use the skill he had shown on his live stream a few days ago.

However, at this moment, Oliver suddenly did something.

He threw the knife in his hand at him, adding golden flames behind it to increase its power.

Because he was positioned behind Alex, so his attack was very dangerous for him.

Kim Hana who didn't know that he was enemies with Alex was dumbfounded by his actions.

Shua!

The knife glided quickly and Alex didn't notice at all.

"Alex, watch out, behind you." His friends who saw that quickly warned him.

Unfortunately, it was probably too late.

Alex when hearing his friends warn him spontaneously looked back first.

Seeing that there was a sneak attack, he couldn't make much movement anymore.

Xiu!

The knife hit his ankle, going straight through it.
