Most of the people here just couldn't understand why a country as secretive and self-centred as Korea was jumping to send their potential future strongest out in this dangerous Japan. Was 'Starfire' really that strong?

Neji reached level 150, from 141, after defeating the Phoenix. Interestingly, both he and Kurai received 9 levels, since the one to defeat the enemy was Neko, a fusion. More interestingly, the exp wasn't divided, but both Neji and Kurai received the actual amount of exp that the death of the Phoenix provided. This meant they hunted 18 levels worth of a beast that usually gave 9 levels, that's how broken the "Fusion" is.

Though to balance things up, when a fusion isn't immediately cancelled, like what Neji did to change constantly inside the dungeon, there is a cooldown of 24 hours before Fusion is possible again.

It's been 2 hours since Neji unfused, so there were still 22 more hours remaining.

Looking at his stats, he asked the system. 'System, what's up with that "~" in between some of the stats?'

He could somewhat guess it, but it's better to confirm that guess.

[Master, it is to indicate how far you can strengthen your stats using One for All. It seems all three physical stats are 500-numbers ahead of your original stats. That might not seem like a lot but 500 bonus stat is a lot since that means you are basically around level 400 now, even as a level 150.]

[On top, as you might know, levels are slightly different for you compared to the monsters in the dungeons. They gain one point in each stat once they level up, but they don't get 5 extra stat-points that you do. With that in mind, if you calculate a bit, you'd realise as a Pseudo Level-400, you're equal to a Level-800 monster within the tower. In the tower, only the Boss monsters will be able to match you since their levels get tuned according to your own battle power, pseudo or not.]

The lifeforms in the Tower are actually living beings, and only the boss monsters of each floor were the ones who were under direct influence of the System, so their levels adjust to whatever the Gamer's level is.
