Chapter 47 - Monsters Everywhere!

The Ragnar?k had finally started.
Everything changed so much before my eyes I could barely grasp ahold of the situation.
My entire body felt paralyzed as I saw everything unfold, it was as if chaos itself had come and engulfed this world in endless madness.
I had always been quite realistic for a fantasy writer, I never honestly believed in spirits or ghosts or other stupid crap, but after all of this and well, the last week… everything still feels surreal to an extent.
The entire world shook, the sky broke apart, celestial entities emerged and flew somewhere, another area of the sky broke as a stream of rainbow energy constantly flowed everywhere, and from another crack in space, an enormous, gargantuan entity made of red flesh extended tentacles, not to attack us but to drain something from the planet with them.
On another side, a sickly green mist covered the forest and made it into a mutated world where a gigantic temple was erected out of nowhere.
To my back, there was a gigantic crimson tower erecting from the depths of the underworld, as what I would only call demonic beings began to crawl their way to the surface.
And to the other side of the sky, a wormhole resembling the gates that appear when I go to the dungeons appeared, but it was immense enough to harbor hundreds of high-tech spaceships you would only see in Star Trek of Star Wars.
Most of these entities were being attracted by the large masses of people inside of the faraway cities, mostly ignoring our dim presence as we glanced with horror at their coming.
I was barely able to cope with everything thanks to my mental fortitude, the one I had forged through this last week, alongside the mental strength I acquired after becoming a Dhampir.
"Master!" asked Kireina, as I was brought back to reality, my senses quickly adjusted to my surroundings, for a moment I had thought I was simply watching a movie and my senses for some reason were dulled.
"Master, what should we do?" asked Ervas.
"I think some monsters might appear at any time…" said Vudia.
"My dear?" asked Kireina, as she grasped my hand.
I had to make a decision.
However, that decision was taken even before I could do it myself.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Suddenly, all around the house and the perimeter, the mines I had left before long ago began to explode, I used my senses to glare at their position and saw the blown-up corpses of grotesque creatures resembling purple-colored spiders made entirely out of slimy flesh.
Right after the explosions, I felt a constant rush of Experience Points!
[You gained EXP]
[You gained EXP]
[You gained EXP]
[Your Level has increased to Level 24!]
[You gained Skill Points]
The rush of experience points and the exhilaration that the boost to my stats cause to my body made my mind clearer, and I quickly noticed as more of these creatures approached, some walked over the corpses of others while some exploded by the mines, showering me with more EXP.
I guess it was a good idea that we settled up those mines!
"Very well! I have decided it, we'll defend our stand here, let's kill as many spiders as we can, if we can keep leveling while we kill them, we should be able to gain a substantial amount of strength right away," I said.
"Alright! These beasts won't stand a chance~!" said Kireina, raising her spear.
"I will protect your backs," said Ervas, glaring at our back as he began to fire Telekinesis Bullets right away, hitting a Flesh Spider (as I shall call them) and splattering it all over the place.
It seems that these monsters are not particularly strong.
The Flesh Spiders are emerging from the Purple Forest where the sickly, green-colored mist is, alongside a large temple within it.
To the other side, several kilometers away there was an army of demonic fiends crawling into the surface, but most moved elsewhere, but there was a chance that some of them would try to approach us.
The other areas seemed to be "safe" although I wouldn't want to approach the giant tentacles nor the strange flowing rainbow-colored energy river.
There is also the group of celestial entities that resemble humans in all sorts of golden and colorful costumes, they are completely ignoring us.
The spaceships are also going to the big cities, ignoring us as well… It was a good decision I left that place in time.
So, the targets to defeat are the Flesh Spiders at the moment, with a side dish of demons afterward.
After we survive this army of monsters and manage to power up a bit, we'll most likely rush to either the crimson tower or below the Celestials (as I shall call them) are coming from…
And both are dangerous.
I didn't consider the green mist forest because it might be toxic, and I might die from that.
Ervas decided to use the Telekinesis Ability of Flight on all of us, giving us the ability to float in midair by consuming Mana (mine).
Through these last days we had already practiced flying and floating in midair before, so there was no problem with our sense of direction.
But before I could begin using anything I had at my disposal, several System windows popped out of thin air.
[Soul Records] have been created]
[Soul Records] have merged with your [System]
[System] and [Status] have been upgraded!]
Soul… Records?
[Soul Records: After the Ragnar?k had begun, every living being possess the ability to see their record of their soul, which showcases itself through Stats, Abilities, and more!]
[Additionally, you can check your Status and see your Existence Rank, which will come in handy to compare yourself with other beings]
[You learned the [Appraisal (-)] Skill!]
[Use Appraisal to check other living beings Existence Ranks to compare your strength with them]
Oh?
So I guess everyone got something of a System, but Players get super Systems that are like the unique ones from Novels… I got my Summon and Tamer stuff, but most likely not everyone else can do it.
And most likely all other Players have such special law-breaking features that go way above just Abilities and Skills appearing inside the Soul Records… Interesting.
Ding!
[Good work at using the Daily Dungeons!]
[Now, they had been sealed and you cannot access them for free]
[You require special Daily Dungeon Tickets to enter them thrice a day!]
[Good luck and use that head-start for your benefit!]
Good luck my ass!
