Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

(From MC's Perspective)

The burly man wasn't entirely gone. I must say, these power-type wizards are quite difficult to kill. Then I watched the other four people's reactions.

At this point, the female fire mage was furious. Her expression shows that she wasn't expecting this situation. The third woman, though, made a startling movement.

My expression became solemn. I suspected the third woman was not entirely innocent from the start. I'm curious to see what she's up to now.

The third, petite woman approached the burnt body. When she sees the charred state of the burly man, her little face cracks a vicious smile. She pulls a black dagger from her pocket and makes a thrust at the burly man's heart.

"Three of them..." Midway through, I gulped my saliva and muttered, "Crazy."

The burly man had stopped moving after being stabbed. I noticed three women staring at each other. They appear to have reached a decision at this time.

The third woman did not draw the black dagger. She left the dagger in opponent's chest.  She then proceeded to approach the other two female wizards. On the other hand, the slim guy checked their surroundings once again at this point.

The skinny guy joined the conversation after checking his surroundings. They then talked about something amongst themselves. They then strolled towards the inner area a few minutes later, leaving behind a burnt body on the ground.

I watch them leave and then return my attention to the charred corpse. I'm not sure how to respond to this. I'm not innocent, but these women are on a different level.

I remembered how hard I had to work to bring Jake House to this wilderness. In comparison to mine, they have killed with ease.

SIGH

After clearing my head, I let out a long breath. It's not a good idea to compare myself to these women. They have the ability to kill everyone who comes across them. In contrast, I am not a serial killer.

I had anticipated these women to take something from the charred corpse. They didn't, however. This indicates that the problem was something else.

A peculiar sparkle appears in my eyes.

It's also time for me to head inside. I looked in the direction four of them had gone. It is precisely in the north-west direction.

Then I made the decision to travel northeast. After that, I quietly emerged from the woods and went towards the location.

The landscape changed visibly once I ventured into the inner area. Unlike the surrounding area, this location has a lot of hills.

Even if someone wishes to flee, they must first locate the exit route. Otherwise, surviving in this location while being pursued by monsters would be challenging.

My eyes have a faint sparkle. It's common to encounter monsters on these hills. But I'm not sure which order they belong in. It's alright if it's a 2nd order monster, but if it's a 3rd order monster, there's no sense in staying here.

That's why, before moving further into the inner area, I considered testing the monster's strength in the area around me. I take out the wilderness map again to double-check.

Several hilltops were drawn on this map, as I predicted. When you get over these hilltops, you'll see a wide plain beyond them. You must pass through this region to get to these plains.

I also had the impression that a wide plain is not simple. There's a chance you'll run into a third order monster there. Which, at my current level, is far too early. But then I remembered those women and the skinny dude.

I can very certainly confirm their destination now. They plan to do something on the plains. What could possibly draw them in? Several ideas spring to mind.

Then I realized I should be concerned about my personal safety out here. Forget broad plains; these ordinary-looking mountain hills alone represent bigger dangers to me.

I chose a few spots from the map after gaining some clarity. Some hilltops are close to the border of the outer area. If a situation arises, it will be easier for me to retreat to the outer area.

Then I stowed the map in my storage bracelet and moved towards the destination.

In the blink of an eye, time passes.

After an hour of crossing various hard paths, I was finally getting closer to the first target. A little peak lies ahead of me. At the same time there is an outside area's border behind me. Now I'm walking along the narrow route that connects both of these locations.

According to the map, this route is frequently used by adventurer teams. There is also the possibility of encountering them at this place as I doubted as I walked down the short route.

But I had already decided to go check out this hill. So I'm not going to change my mind on the spur of the moment. Then I continued to walk along the little route that led higher.

While walking forward, I keep one eye on my surroundings. I don't want any monsters to appear in front of me all of a sudden. Especially in this narrow route, where even taking moving around would be difficult.

As time passes,

As I got closer to my destination, I heard a clashing sound. When I heard that, I slowed down. Then I proceeded with caution to assess the situation.

My eyes widened with surprise as I witnessed two boar monsters collide. I mistake their clashing for a fight between a team of adventurers.

Now, I stumbled upon an excellent opportunity.

"System, probe their details," I said to the system.

I was staring at their statistics in front of me. I can only describe them as feeble. However, not all other first-order monsters possessed stats comparable to wild boar monsters.

I suppose these common monsters have inherent restrictions. They will not evolve after they have reached a certain point.

In my eyes, a fascinating sparkle appears.

I looked around while these two boars sought to hurt each other with their protruding tusks. I don't want anybody to appear out of nowhere and ruin my haul.

Time passed.

These two boars ran out of juice after 10 minutes. Nonetheless, these two monsters retained their wild inclinations. These boars refused to back down from this fight. A little smile formed on my lips as I observed the event. The only thing threatening about these boars were their tusks. It's simple to kill them as long as you keep your distance.

When it was my turn to emerge, I came forward unexpectedly and began to cast my magic.

"GRAVITY FIELD" In the blink of an eye, an invisible field formed around me. These exhausted monsters collapsed to the ground all of a sudden. The tremendous pressure exerted by gravitational pull causes their whole orifices to bleed.

The pressure quickly knocked these wild boars off their feet as they screamed in anguish. They can only die in silence now.

Fortunately, my mana reserve grew as a result of my talent upgrade. Otherwise, exerting pressure on these two creatures at the same time would be tough.

I noticed their vitality points were dwindling. I suppose their internal organs couldn't tolerate the pressure. It may appear to be fine on the outside, but I'm sure their inside organs are bleeding right now.

Time passed.

I kept using my mana without hesitation. The gravity field gave these first-order beasts no hope of survival. These two boars entirely lose their breath as their vitality decreases to zero.

I dispelled the gravity magic after confirming it. Then I noticed the condition of the two corpses. These two boars, unlike wild rabbits, will bring me a good price.

Then I approached the corpses and extracted the first order crystal jewels one by one with my own knife. I had two brown-colored crystal jewels in my palm a few minutes later. I put these stones in my storage bracelet after giving it a quick glance.

What to do with the corpses now? Should I cut them up into tiny pieces or put their full bodies in my storage bracelet?

In my eyes, a gleam shines. My personal knife is insufficient to sever their skin. As a result, dissecting their parts is tough. I should have a proper weapon next time I come here.

Then, out of desperation, I placed the two wild boar corpses in a storage bracelet. Next, I opted to spend the night here before venturing elsewhere.

On my first formal journey, I have killed three monsters. There is, however, nothing to be proud of. The stats of these three monsters were quite low.

My previous classmate could have done it. As a Class A1 student, I must face more dangerous monsters. In my heart, a faint expectation arose. Maybe I'll find some good monsters tomorrow.
