Charlus was going home from a good meal at Irda’s Burger Joint. He was thinking of going back to the park someday again to see if there were any monsters there. Charlus thought of how his friend was Lvl 20. How could he still be Lvl 4? He needed to Lvl up.

Of course, Charlus wouldn’t risk his life. He would be careful. He was walking towards the park through a short cut he knew but was stopped by someone he knew.

“What are you doing here, Marcus?”

“I am here for you Charlus.”

Charlus counted 11 men behind Marcus.

“Who are them?”

“I hired them to beat you up. Are you scared?”

Charlus sighed. He was ready to take out his rusty dagger. Or the baseball bat he kept in his inventory just in case. His inventory increased by one slot for every time he levelled up so he had enough space.

One foolish goon decided to rush forward. Charlus didn’t even bother to take out a weapon. He clenched his fist and waited for the man to reach him. When he was in range, Charlus hit the man in his face with full force and followed with a punch to the stomach.

[You have dealt Critical Hit]

[85 Damage Dealt]

[34 Damage Dealt]

[You have defeated Burly Goon Lvl 5]

[You have gained 75 Exp]

Charlus immediately felt scared. Did he kill this man? He looked at the status of the man in front of him.

[Burly Goon Lvl 5]

[HP – 31/150]

[Status – Unconscious]

Charlus suddenly smiled. If this person gave him 75 Exp, it meant that he gave 15 Exp per level. This meant that farming humans was faster than farming monsters. This was not practical in the civilized society that Charlus lived in but since Marcus had delivered this Exp *ahem* goon squad to his feet, who was he to say no?

The goons in the back were all Lvl 5. They were slightly surprised to see that their companion had been knocked down.

“Oi! Wake up! It’s not funny anymore.”

Charlus looked at the person who said that. He smiled. Then he rushed towards that person. He took out his baseball bat from his inventory and bashed the man’s stomach. He knew that it was too risky to go for the head since he could actually kill that person.

[You have dealt Critical Hit]

[85 Damage Dealt]

Ok. It seemed that this critical hit was completely random and not based on where he hit his enemies. Charlus went to the next goon after dealing one hit. He knew that the person would need some time to recover.

Charlus leapt past two of the goons and hit the third one. Since they had cornered him in a congested alley, the goons did not have a lot of mobility. On the other hand, Charlus had an advantage.

Charlus took out another goon before turning towards the two behind him. He took both of them out. By this time, the goons decided that they had made a wrong decision by trying to beat up Charlus.

Charlus had already knocked out 5 goons including the one that rushed in. There were 6 left, and they started running away.

Charlus, however, wouldn’t let them run away. After all, they were his Exp. Charlus immediately put 3 points into Agi. He would gain AP any time. In fact, he already levelled up by hitting all the goons. The investment would be worth it. Three AP for defeating 6 more Goons. Charlus decided that his calculations were correct.

Marcus was shitting his pants. He had just witnessed Charlus bring out a baseball bat out of nowhere and knock out 5 gang members. he had never seen anything like this. He started regretting his decision to hire these incompetent goons.

Suddenly, one of these ‘incompetent gang members’ came flying towards him and knocked him out. That goon was also unconscious so he did not know that he had knocked out his employer. He would definitely get demoted by his boss if his boss knew about this.

[You have defeated Marcus Stein Lvl 4]

[You have gained 80 Exp]

Charlus wasn’t bothered with this. He took out 6 goons and needed to chase 5 more. He ran as fast as he could and reached two of the goons who were running side by side. He punched one of them lightly in his spine and put his hand in front of the other to trip him. He kicked the person who tripped hard before proceeding to chase the other three. They had reached their car and were trying to open it.

“Who has the goddamn keys?!”

One of the goons shouted. He was the first person to get knocked out by Charlus’ baseball bat. The other two looked at Charlus with fear. Charlus quickly knocked one out.

“Please don’t kill me. I was forced by my boss. I don’t do jobs like this normally.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you.” Charlus smiled. “But I still need the Exp.”

Pang!
