Chapter 25 - Diablo saving the beauty

*Author note: sorry for not uploading, I'm starting to run low on inspiration*

After we split up, both of us went on a killing spree as my experience started to rapidly rise.

[level: 18/25 (exp: 300/5,176) {apprentice}]

After nearly five hours of hunting, I got a message from Diablo reporting something unusual.

'Hey, I found something unusual.'

'What is it?' I asked curiously.

'Well, it seems that I've come across quite the interesting scene. A couple hobgoblins and a bald wolf beast-man are surrounding a young black haired cyclops girl. I just wanted to give you a heads up that I will be killing them'

'O-oh, yeah that's fine. Just make sure not to leave any loose ends, I don't want to deal with problems from their family or organization if they have one.'

'I wasn't planning on it.'

Soon after they disconnected the mental link leaving me waiting for their update.

----- a few minutes earlier -----

'Damn it! why won't these guys just leave me alone!'

"Hey, why don't you just slow down. We won't do anything to you."

"Yeah," another one said. "We won't harm you, I promise."

"BULL SHIT! Maybe if you stop chasing me, I would believe you."

'Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!'

'How the f**k did I even get into this situation. All of this just for greed and lust? I didn't even care about those monster corpses. It's not like I needed the money, but no the corpses weren't enough. Just because they outnumbered me, they thought that they could eye my body.'

'I could have killed those bast**ds easily if it was a one-on-one fight. A divine race is not some mere trifle if it wasn't for their numbers and higher levels I would never ru-"

"Aghh"

"F**king rock!"

After tripping I quickly tried to get up and continue running but just as I got on my feet they caught up and surrounded me.

"Well, well, girly it seems you've finally ran out of energy."

"Yeah," another one sneered. "If you service us honestly, we might even let you live if we're in a good mood."

"You think I'm an idiot." I said as I pulled out my spear from my space ring. "The chance of you letting me go after is pretty much zero so I might as well take a few of you down with me."

After I declared my decision, I charged towards one of them.

*Shink*

Before I even made it halfway to them a fire magic spear pierced their heart.

"Damn it! we're being attacked! Be on your guar-"

*Shink*

*Shink*

*Shink*

*Shink*

In less than 5 seconds the rest of them were also killed.

'I don't know to be happy or scared right now. Either way I should probably keep my guard up just in case.'

"Who's there!?" I said cautiously.

"Just a passerby." I heard a voice from behind me say. 

I quickly turned around, and I saw the one responsible for killing the ones who attacked me.

They appeared to be a guy around my age. They were 180cm tall and had shoulder length red hair with piercing orange eyes and a handsome face which seemed almost playful, but mostly prideful.

----------

[You have killed five rare 'members of humanity']

[As a penalty your exp has been reduced by 75 percent]

[You have gained 709 exp]

[You have gained the trait 'great libido']

[You have gained the trait 'innate hunter']

[You have gained the common skill 'empowering strike']

[You have gained the common skill 'empowering slash']

[You have gained the common skill 'empowering stab']

[You have gained the rare skill 'hobgoblins strength']

[You have gained the rare skill 'wolfs speed']

'Disgusting bast**ds! Why the f**k did I gain great libido!?'

"Who are you!"

Hearing this my attention was brought back to the girl I saved.

She was 185cm tall with almond skin and short neck length black hair which with a closer look was actually a very dark purple. Her deep violet eye was staring at me cautiously. Unaware of what my attentions might be she held her spear in a defensive stance.

I took noticed that she was wearing a good quality body gear which appeared to be just a normal pair of enchanted iron armor, but I knew that it was more than it seemed.

Thanks to my treasure sense I could sense the value radiating off of her. Everything from her armor to the rings she wore was of immense value with a total estimation of being over 10 million.

"What are you staring at!"

"I just noticed that nearly everything you're wearing is quite expensive with an estimated value of a bit over 10 million."

Hearing this she was visibly surprised and became more cautious as if expecting me to rob her.

"There are only two families in this area which can afford something that expensive and since I don't recognize you, I would assume that you're not from around here correct."

Hearing my analysis, she seemed to be having an internal struggle of whether or not to confirm or deny it.

"*Sigh* You are correct I'm not from the city," she said reluctantly. "I won't disclose which city I'm from, but my family has a tradition where they would send us to a small city to level up on our own before the exam."

'It's about what I expected, but I didn't think that her family had a tradition like that.'

"Anyway, why did you help me?" She asked a bit more relaxed. "It didn't really bring any benefit to you so I'm curious."

"Theres not a lot to say I just felt like it. I would have left you to die if they were stronger than me."

She seemed surprised by my statement, but she mostly seemed... relieved?

"Well, that's new. I expected you to say some hypocritical s**t like 'to protect justice' or something along those lines."

"Why would I say that!?" I said in a nearly disgusted tone. "If I really cared about justice I wouldn't have killed them."

"I already know that, that's why I said, 'hypocritical s**t' since some people like to come across more noble than they actually are." She said amused. "Anyway, my name is Lilia, you?"

"Diablo."

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Diablo. Thanks for saving me, would you be interested in completing the dungeon with me?"
