Chapter 6 - Possibility of Growth
Doofus eliminated the demon cat with ease. Lu Ran looked at the cat’s broken neck, finding the sight quite surreal. Although all this was supposed to be a projection, it all seemed so real.
I’m sorry you had to die so miserably, but it was either you or me.
Huh—
Before Lu Ran could contemplate for too long, the demon cat turned into a white light, shattered, and disappeared.
"Woof?"
Captain Doofus watched in shock as its spoils of war disappeared. Some speckles of light remained, though. They condensed into a ball the size of a firefly and flew into Captain Doofus, surprising it even more. Right after, it felt itself growing even stronger.
"You got stronger through fighting?"
Noticing a change in Captain Doofus, Lu Ran pulled out his contract card and checked its level. To his confusion, though, it was still at level 1.
"I should be right... Although it isn’t much, killing that monster has made Captain Doofus stronger."
Lu Ran’s thoughts began to race.
"Does it need to kill more monsters to level up? How many does it need to kill, though? Wait! Maybe this is the purpose of this trial."
