Chapter 353: A General Class? (1/2)

After sending that attack, their conflict ceased, confusing Theo.

Since Ava was also a monster, he thought Ava knew something about their exchange, so he asked, ”Ava, what did they just do? Is it a territorial dispute?”

Ava furrowed her eyebrows and shook her head. She also couldn't get it quite well. There was something weird in their exchange that made her doubt the two's intentions.

”Their clash was a bit weird.” Theo pondered over what he just saw.

”Kyu.” Ava suddenly punched the air a few times, telling Theo that it was a real fight, not a show.

In other words, the two monsters seemed to be planning to kill each other.

”They wanted to kill each other, but wasn't the clash too brief?” Theo asked.

”Kyu!” Ava punched again, opened her mouth in shock and ran away.

”So, the fish was too weak and ran away?”

Ava shook her head. She punched the air and walked to the opposite side and did the same. After that, Ava continued glaring at her own reflection, snorted, and left the battlefield.

”…” Theo scratched the back of his head. In fact, he never understood Ava's word to word. All he could do was to say something according to her actions.

For this one, he was a bit clueless and started thinking about a few scenarios. Luckily, the first one was the correct one. ”So, the fish and the lich were equal. Instead of wasting their time, they chose to leave for training. They want to defeat the other party the next time they meet… Something like that?”

Ava nodded in agreement.

”It's too complicated.” Theo shook his head helplessly. ”Anyway, our plan doesn't change. We will kill the lich. Although it looks powerful, I have my confidence in defeating it one by one.”

”Kyu!” Ava smiled and made herself comfortable again.

Theo, on the contrary, kept watching the lich.

To his surprise, the lich was using his skills from time to time as if he was practicing to defeat the fish.

It was at this moment Theo realized Ava wasn't wrong.

If he counted all those zombies to kill before the lich, Theo had confidence in reaching Level 225, which should be enough to confront a barely Hero Rank lich. Hence, Theo was determined to locate the lich, making sure where he stayed for the night so as to avoid waking it up tomorrow.

…

As planned, Theo finally began his plan the next day. Because he didn't know when the lich slept, Theo decided not to sleep last night to mark the area where the lich slept.

After going a bit farther away from that spot, Theo and Ava began killing the zombies far from that area, thinning their number.

Because the level difference had begun to shrink, he didn't get as many EXP anymore, resulting in his level coming to a halt.

In one day, he could only level up once or twice if he was lucky. However, that was the limit.

Knowing this restriction, Theo still smiled as if this was what he wanted. Ava could understand Theo's feelings because Theo could fight so many former humans who somehow retained a portion of their human instinct and basics.

This was what Theo needed this whole time. After all, the time Theo faced humans face to face wasn't that many. There were only the school competition and a few teams in the Grand Gaia.

Facing all these zombies let him advance his own spear mastery, which strengthened his basics. That was the reason Theo stayed for a little bit longer in this place and chose to clear all the zombies.
