The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 118: My adventures in the secret realm (4)

I resumed my hunting after I tamed the fox.

Inari and Asya didn't do much. The fox used its [Confuscion] skill to stop the monsters from running away, while the demon petted the fox.

While I was hunting, I learned something. I am now sharing the EXP in three ways.

Not just Inari, now Asya too is eating away my EXP. I didn't pay much attention when I had the Thunder Wolf, but thinking about it, I did earn less EXP than I should. I didn't think about it then, as the EXP gained was already less.

Now it is different. We are in the Inner region, the place where I can decently improve my EXP. I thought I could reach peak Tier-4 or at least be at Level 70 or something by the time I reached the core.

Now though, it would be great if I could reach level 50 by that time.

It looks like I have to reach the core before I want to and have to hunt the monsters there. Only by hunting there would I be able to feed myself and the two lazy ones.

I have no idea what's the rank of the monsters in the core area. It probably be at Tier-5, if I believe the calculations of the academy.

Maybe they are at Tier-5 once but it has been centuries, and they should have improved quite a bit.

Unless there was a restriction placed on monsters that they can't cross Tier-5, I think they should have crossed that rank by now and probably somewhere in the middle of Tier-6.

This was why my plan was to reach peak Tier-4 so that I would have the ability to run away if the monsters there had reached Tier-6.

It's just not me who would be implicated but the entire Frostwolf family or at least my parents and siblings would be pulled into this mess. I can't let that happen. There is no way that a small family that has no protection from a Tier-7 or above can survive if such a war happens.

As long as I reach Tier-7, people won't covet my treasures. They would be wary of what I would do if by chance I survived. So they would only concentrate on me and may try to get me in one attack and that would be it.

I mean there are times when a Tier-7 or above escaped attacks and later returned powerful enough to stomp away their enemies. So when I reach Tier-7, there won't be many that can dare to touch me.

So for now, no matter what, I need to reach peak tier-4 before the end of the month. Once I leave the secret realm, I can go to the magic association and take the promotion mission.

This way, I won't be suspected by others, and my family elders won't think I am a waste. If they think that I am a waste, they would reduce the resources I would get every year. If I can't get them, I may have to find other sources to get those resources.

Though the Cosmic Market is there, where I can get my hands on some rare resources, it works similarly to barter. I need resources to get other resources.

The only way I could get items from the cosmic market was through using the resources that I got from the family. I don't want to lose that source.

After the secret realm ends, I would have a lot of resources but it's not like I can get infinite resources through this realm. There is only so much that I can get from this.

Until my third year at the academy, where I can leave the academy to gain resources outside, my family is the only resource point for me.

There are only two goals to complete in the next few weeks.

One is to reach peak Tier-4, while the second goal is to gather as many resources as I can before I have to leave the realm.
