The World Seems Realistic But Why Do I Have A Leveling System? Chapter 94
Advertisement
As she walked progressively further, Sylvia eventually came upon a group of three slimes with no particular path as they jumped here and there without a care of the world. She didn't immediately sprint to them but instead, took a deep breath to regulate her breathing before slowly and cautiously steps toward them without leaving any noise in her path. The group of three slimes didn't even notice her presence at all as she slowly gets closer to them, it was stark different than her first time sneaking behind an enemy. After many attempt ended up with failures, Sylvia have gotten better at sneaking behind them while making her presence as thin as possible before moving in a certain pattern where she won't make any noise to alert the enemy which would exposed her in return.
Though Sheila is not an assassin, she could still give an advice or two to Sylvia about her experience of jumping to and fro within the shadow. Within the dark world, even if she shouted as loud as possible, the sound won't pass through the shadow's barrier, unless she wanted to. Whenever Sheila came to visit Sylvia in the Trial Tower, she would always leave an advice or two to help her improve further, an example of that was teaching Sylvia how to handle her dagger better. Even though she had never use dagger as a weapon before, the experience she gained from swordsmanship skill was helpful in this situation.
When Sylvia has gotten near one of the three slimes without having her presence known, she swiftly cut the small core within the slime before she jumped forward to the second slime without looking back. The second slime that has now noticed her presence immediately launched itself toward her, Sylvia side-stepping to the side and slash her dagger to the core of the slime split into two before it could reach the ground. It only took a minute for Sylvia to slay the two slimes before finishing the last slime with ease as it idiotically launched itself to her without a care that its kin had done that once before which ended up dead. The first few fights had ended quite a few wounds on her body, but now, the slimes didn't even have the chance to hit her before their core got split into two. And since Sylvia and Ria couldn't use the system's shop, Sheila had used the gold they earned to buy the potions for them which the latter warned them to only use it in the Trial Tower instead of real world. If the situation called for it, they need to inform Sheila beforehand, and she would 'handle' the rest for them. It would be problematic if the world gets to know such 'magical' medicine exists, after all.

"I need to kill a few more slimes before leveling up to six. I think I'll do just that before turning back, Sheila and her mother probably still isn't home yet anyway."
With that thought in mind, Sylvia sprint forward while gazing at the surroundings grassland, searching for another group of slimes for the experience. It didn't take her long before she finds a group of four slimes jumping next to each other and when looked closer, the four of them is just normal slimes, no variant of sort. Though Sheila had never met a variant slime in the Trial Tower, she had told Sylvia to be careful just in case that she might find one if she's 'lucky'. After all, Sheila had met a lot of variant from goblin race and she thought that slime was also the case, but a lot rarer than the goblin. Even if she was wrong, it's better to be careful than sorry when it's too late.
It took Sylvia an hour and half before she leveled up to six, but before she could exit the Trial Tower, Sheila appeared next to her. Just as she had always done, Sylvia went closer to Sheila with her eyes filled with a sudden vigor as she greeted the latter.
"Master!"
A wry smile appeared on her face, though she don't mind about how Sylvia call her, Sheila still finds it uncomfortable and having a strange kind of feeling went through her body whether she was called as such by the little silver-white haired girl in front of her. Sheila shook her head to remove the thought before answering the greeting and told her purpose of being here.
"I actually just come here for short while just to check on you before going on with my business. So, did you have any problem now that we're living together?"

"No. I have no problem at all! …though I do feel somehow envious sometimes when I saw how close you are with your family, it just reminds me of the past a bit."
When her words reached the latter part, a sad smile appeared on her face and Sylvia shook her head when Sheila was about to say something.
"It's fine, Though I feel envious, overall I'm happy that I could live within the warmth of your family, which was why I can't help but wanted to become stronger so that one day I could be of help to you."
Feeling a hand touching her head, Sylvia looked up and saw Sheila smiling at her.
"I wanted to say that you don't need to go that far, but it would be a lie that I don't need your help. After all, I won't have shown you this side of the world if I just want you to live happily in ordinary life. Let's see, though you might experience something even worse than living with your mother, would you still want to follow me? Before you come to conclusion, think it thoroughly so as to not regret your decision when it's too late. I'll give you a day or two, as long as you need and when you have come to decision, just let me know."
Sheila said while she was messing with the beautiful silver-white hair with her hands as Sylvia listens closely, though the happy smile on her face might seem that she wasn't listen to the conversation at all. After Sheila is sure that Sylvia took her words seriously, she bid farewell before leaving the girl alone, though from the look of her face, Sheila believes it won't take that much time before Sylvia come to her decision which caused her to sigh internally.
