Hellmode ~A Hardcore Gamer Becomes Peerless in Another World with Retro Game Settings~

Chapter 560: The growth of those who overcame their trials



Allen's attack dealt the finishing blow to the ghost Ganira, and was so powerful that the floating island cracked in half and looked like it was about to break apart.

Bump

'You defeated 1 ghost. You gained 2000'000'000 Faith Points. You gained 200'000'000 Spiritual Power. You gained 200'000'000 Divine Power. You gained 10 Talent Change Points. You reached Level 222. Strength +500, Mana +800, Attack +280, Endurance +280, Agility +520, Intelligence +800, Luck +520.'

(Oh? That's twice the Faith Points from regular Demigod Rank ghosts. Wait, I think my Levels also increased twice as much. I guess it's because it had two heads? And so…yeah, there's 2 Spirit Crystal Stones! I can pull two compasses now!!)

The more his Level increased, the less Levels he got from enemies. When he first reached the divine realm he got 10 Levels from Demigod Rank ghosts, but at Level 150 it went down to 5.

He had gotten 2 now, but after hitting Level 200 he only used to get 1 Level.

He assumed that was because this enemy was more powerful than the rest, and had 2 heads.

Allen jumped over onto Ganira's shell and looked inside, taking out the 2 Spirit Crystal Stones.

"I-I'm sorry…I got distracted."

After Allen stored the Spirit Crystal Stones and jumped back down, Luck apologized.

"Hm? Ah, that's alright. Just make sure you've actually finished your enemy next time."

Allen had gotten distracted, but he felt like that was normal. They had been fighting Ganira for 2 hours, which meant their Divine Techniques would end.

Usually they only lasted for 1 hour, but the Time Great Spirit could extend them to 2 hours.

"But…"

(You learn from trial and error, there's no need to be so depressed. Give me a hand here, Sophie.)

"Still, your timing was impeccable, Master Allen."

"I was looking for the right moment after Formar used Lighting Speed. Thankfully Luck became a decoy and it worked out."

Allen looked at Sophie and nodded, glad that she had picked up on his struggle.

Formar had used his Divine Technique [Lightning Speed], but he had not stacked [True Strong Bow] enough, so the arrow was not able to kill Ganira.

Allen had already anticipated that would happen, so he had already summoned Graham to deal the finishing blow with [Soul Saber].

"Oh! Really?! You should've told me sooner I would be a decoy!"

"Now you know. You can always try to do more next time."

"Leave it to me!"

Allen decided to tell Luck he had just been a decoy.

"But aww, does this mean my Level won't get any higher now?"

"Nope. All 3 of you are at Level 99 now. You can only get Skill Levels now."

They had met their goal of reaching Level 99 before heading to the Divine Arena.

Allen checked the stats of the 3.
