Chapter 33 - Fast Progress

My plan was fairly simple, just to get the fuck out of New York.
I said goodbye to this living hell of a city as we moved all the way to Canada.
Yup, we are going all the way up, and we are going to the woods.
The less convoluted the best, if an apocalypse happens, I will be well prepared while traveling to even wilder areas where there might not be as many people, which would only bring more disaster.
…I hope I am not wrong.
At the very least, if only monsters show up, it won't be too bad, we can always deal with them and level up through it… But I don't even know how much the world might change through the apocalypse, and if the whole landscape changes due to the merge between dimensions… then I will be lost either way.
So it is better to go to a mostly empty area.
We continued traveling as Kireina chatted a lot to cheer me up, she kind of knew I was rather nervous about everything, so her talking about trivial stuff kind of calmed me, and she even talked about the manga and light novels I let her read, so it was rather relaxing.
I don't know how long we traveled through the road, but I thanked myself for the past that I made sure to buy gasoline in bulks.
When it was around 10 PM, we decided to take a break, we ate inside the car and it was rather cozy a bit…
I had packed so much food that we didn't need much, but there was a feeling of dread in my heart that I couldn't easily take away, even when I was eating something tasty.
I guess I am just scared at the end, I am bracing myself to not be scared, and I am doing everything I can to survive, but I am still scared, of all these uncertainties, of everything.
It worries me to think about the future, and what might happen afterward.
At the very least I am not alone, or I would probably feel way worse.
I guess this is what happens to a neet like me, too much time inside my room made me feel nervous outside.
But I have to just cope with it…
As we finished eating, I rested a bit over the seat, and Kireina suddenly held my hand.
"Master, are you… okay?" she asked.
"…Yeah. I am fine. Don't worry…" I said.
"Just remember that… I am here for you. You're not alone in this," she said.
Ah, she says this always but… it always soothes my heart. She tightly grasps my hand as she glares at me lovingly.
"Alright then… I will try to be strong…" I said.
"I am here too. And you could also summon more…" said Ervas.
"Ah, summon more… Yeah, I guess I could, tomorrow should be a good time to summon some more and pick a third or fourth summon," I said.
"Meow…"
Cuco, which I had freed from the Barracks sat over my lap.
He was like three times his original size, but he was still my cat, and he felt my concern and kind of began to rub his head over my chest.
Damn, I am being way too pampered now, this is not fitting of the cool-headed lone wolf main character I must be!
Well, this is not really a novel…
Damn, thinking about that… I won't be writing novels in a while, huh…
After some more talking, I decided to sleep in the backseat while Kireina decided to drive through the night…

[Day 4]
Day 4… I feel like every day feels like many, there are so many things I do every day… But today we finished everything quite quickly.
I woke up around 7 AM and we swiftly completed the Dungeons, now that I got four tamed monsters and two strong summons at my side, alongside my own strength, we simply one-shotted our way through everything.
We were currently in the last dungeon run, the third run of the EXP Dungeon.
The Queen Bee was, as usual, firing tiny bees at us.
I quickly hit each bee with my Morning Star, crushing them as I went, each one exploded and splattered all over, I was getting used to getting myself covered in monster blood and juices I suppose.
I jumped over the Queen Bee as she swiftly evaded my hit, I ended up hitting the ground, which shook a bit.
However, I am not the main warrior, you know?
I pointed the palm of my right hand at the monster while it ran from me.
Mana Bullet Blast.
I activated the Skill as a sphere of Null-type Mana emerged from my palms, the white and transparent sphere of energy flies at great speed towards the Queen Bee, hitting her from the rear.
CLASH!
"BBBZZZ…!"
The monster roars, as I quickly rush towards her to finish her off, I throw her my special Jewel Grenade first, as the crystal falls over her and explodes.
BOOM!
Part of her abdomen falls over the ground as the insect hisses in pain, I take this opportunity to finish it off with a good one.
Evil-Slaying Smite.
With a strong horizontal swing of my Morning Star, I hit the Bee's entire head.
CLASH!
The sole hit crushes the head of the insect, making it explode all over the place…
Poof!
It turns into black smoke and then EXP comes my way…
Ding!
[You gained a large amount of EXP!]
[Your Level has increased to Level 19!]
[Your Level has increased to Level 20!]
Level 20!
Ding!
[You can now change Jobs once more and unlock more Level cap]
Hm, nice, now I can become… I don't know, a Warrior? Whatever Job shows up now.
We quickly walk out of the dungeon and then decide to take a small break, at last.
"Level 20, huh? I do wonder how you can compare to the rest of the Players as of now, Master… And what about types of monsters? Is it merely calculated by Stats?" asked Kireina.
"Well, all these monsters are around Level 1-5, so we can more or less decimate them now, and I could take on a whole dungeon myself as well. But I don't know how exactly levels are related to other people, or if it is only a thing of my own System… But perhaps we might find out soon when everything begins," I said.
"Oh! I see. Perhaps there are some realms of power, kind of like cultivation stuff?" asked Kireina.
"Could be. And the System is simply helping me achieve them through game-like mechanics… Well, for now, I will keep abusing them and change Jobs," I said.
"I see! I do wonder what will master become now…" said Kireina with a teasing smile.
However, before changing, I decided to check my status as they are…
