Excel looked at the slimes with a grin on his face.
' I guess they have more than 10 health.'
{Bro, are you fine?}
{Ach...What's that damage? }
{Let's attack him together}
{Yes bro}
Two slimes charged together towards Excel. He simply swung his two swords to attack the slimes and throw them back.
[You have dealt 78 damage]
[You have dealt 88 damage]
{Fast}
{Yes bro}
{But, last time the human was so weak}
{Damn it.}
{Everyone attack together}
{Yes.}
All of the slimes charged together towards Excel. He closed his eyes.
' Dragon Berserk '
Excel's body's suddenly changed. He started swinging his body and his hands together.
Left...right....up....down....uppercut.....downcut....360...
Excel was simultaneously giving so many movements that it was hard to keep up, for a normal eye.
[You have dealt 366 damage]
[You have dealt 389 damage]
[You have dealt 409 damage]
.....
[You have suffered 45 damage]
[You have suffered 67 damage]
[You have suffered 78 damage]
[You have suffered 98 damage]
....
Even if Excel's speed was faster than those of the slimes, he still was slow to not be able to kill all slimes at once. Excel killed 11 slimes while 9 slimes escaped his attack and they were able to successfully land a blow on Excel, making him lose 30℅ of his health. But,
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
....
....
Excel backed away a bit.
{Bro, we were able to hit him}
{Yes, but at what cost? We lost too many of our comrades.}
{Yeah. Look at him he is exhausted... Wait! what happened, it looks as if we didn't even hit him.}
[Your level has risen]
[Your level has risen]
...
[Your health and mana have been restored]
Excel looked at the slimes with a grin on his face.
{Bro, what should we do now? He is too fast}
{Let's call him}
{Huh...him. Won't he kill us}
{It's the same thing. Either he or this human kills us. In the end, we are going to die. But, I need revenge on this human.}
{Ok. I understand}
A slime quickly leaves.
" Oi. It looks like your comrade left you," said Excel with a grin on his face. " The revenge continues. Haha"
....
huph....huph...
The slime that escaped was tired from running so fast. But, it was able to reach it's destination. The slime entered a large cave. As it went inside more and more the size of the cave kept on increasing.
The slime entered a chamber. Even though there was no light, slimes could see in darkness. It saw a Giant slime sitting on the throne made of stone.
{My highness} said the slime that escaped
{ Who woke us up?} said the giant slime in a deep voice on the throne.
Drip...drip...
From the ceiling of the chamber, slimes started to fall down from the cracks between the rocks. While slimes emerged from the ground.
{Isn't he an Above slime. What is he doing here?} asked a slime that emerged
{Your highness. I need your help} said the slime that escaped
{What help?} asked the giant slime
{A human}
{A human?} asked the giant slime
{Yes, my highness. A human appeared out of nowhere and killed my friends.}
{Huh. What is a human doing here?
{I think he is bluffing}
{Can it be master Laxus?}
{I don't think so. Why will he kill the above slime?}
{Highness, please kill that human.} pleaded the slime that escaped
{You know the price, right?} asked the giant slime with a grin on his face.
{Yes my highness, my body will be yours.} said the slime that escaped.
{Good.} said the giant slime
The giant slime jumped from its stone throne. And as it landed on the ground the land shook.
'What was that shake?' thought Excel.
{Boys, go and kill that human.} commanded the giant slime
{Yes, my Highness} shouted all the Below Slimes.
All of the slimes started exiting the chamber. The giant slime went near the slime that escaped. No, he kept on walking and devoured the slime that escaped.
The slimes slowly came out of the cave. One, two, three, ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty about 200 slimes exited the cave. Unlike, the blue color of the Above slimes, the Below slimes had a brown color.
....
Excel charged towards the remaining 8 slimes. He started swinging his sword and with each swing, he was almost killing the slimes.
{Damn it. Why is he taking so much time?}
{Wait...Did you feel that quake?}
{Yes. He is coming.}
{Now, we can die peacefully.}
Excel once again attacked the slimes, killing the remaining 8 slimes.
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
[You have defeated an Above Slime(Enhanced by Laxus)]
[You have received 700 EXP]
....
....
[You have leveled up]
[You have leveled up]
'Nice. I reached level 22 from killing those slimes. I guess I will distribute my stat points'
Excel looked around to see a rock. He went and sat on it and started distributing his stat points.
Currently, he had 1452 stat points. He put 500 in strength, 500 in magic, 200 in intelligence, 100 on defense, and 152 in stamina.
The performance of a player in his or her late-game phase depends on his early levels and how he or she uses his or her stat points. Excel in his mind has created a layout of his future stats.
He wanted strength and magic stat to be similar with agility half of strength. Intelligence, he wanted to max it out first with 1000 stat points, which maxes out his mana with 10,000 points. He didn't care much about his defense but he wanted to have good stats in stamina for more health.
...
thud...thud...
Suddenly, Excel started feeling the ground shaking. But, the shaking wasn't significant. He thought of leaving the forest but a slime with brown color appeared in front of Excel.
' How cute? Only one '
Excel was so wrong thinking that there was only 1 slime. Slowly, slowly the slimes kept on coming. They started taking over the clear patch of grass.
After, only a few moments Excel was in between the trees while the slimes filled the clear patch of grass. But, still, there were even more slimes coming. The remaining slimes started climbing the trees.
' Why the hell are there so many?'
