Chapter 12: Chapter 3 - Breaking the Limit (2) [Edited]
Next, I moved my attention to the Hell Slime Jelly. I had to admit that it was a good catch.
Although my MAG would not increase anymore since my Magic Power Generator kept generating magic power every second, making it virtually limitless, the increase in DEF took my interest.
After that, it was a Magic Stone, but it was to be sold off, together with Hell Slime Core.
Next, the Black Moon Necklace, a rare item, was the best from the objects dropped by the Hell Slime. Although its effect to restore my magic power was pointless, the bonus for other stats in the night was a good thing.
After that, I put on the necklace and then ate the jelly. I also stored the rest of the dropped items in the Item Box.
"Hm, it tastes bitter but refreshingly cool."
I said that while tasting a bitter taste like coffee. However, the fresh taste made it easy to overcome.
While eating the jelly, I got a notification in my field of vision.
...
[LEVEL UP!]
...
After dismissing the holographic screen, I appraised my status to see the changes.
...
[STATUS_APPRAISAL]
Name: Yuuya Tenjou
Occupation: None
Level: 150 (↑ 50)
MAG: —
ATK: 7,500 (↑ 2,500)
DEF: 8,000 (↑ 3,000)
AGI: 7,500 (↑ 2,500)
INT: 7,500 (↑ 2,500)
LUC: 20,500 (↑ 2,500)
BP: 10,000 (↑ 10,000)
...
Even though my level only increased by fifty points, it was a lot compared to when I leveled up before.
By the way, DEF was higher than the rest, except for MAG and LUC, because the extra 500 points came from eating the Hell Slime Jelly.
After careful consideration, I assigned 500 BP on ATK, AGI, and INT, increasing them to 8,000 points. Next, I assigned the rest of the remaining BP on LUC, increasing it to 29,000 points.
Once I finished assigning my BP, I decided to use Akashic Search Engine to find the location of Crystal Deer. I targeted this monster because it supposedly dropped meat after being finished off, according to my memory of the original story, at the very least.
Moreover, the rare item it'd drop was a magical portable luxurious outdoor bath set!
Who doesn't want to soak in the warm waters of a luxurious outdoor bath for relaxation? I sure want it!
Once I found the location of the nearest Crystal Deer, I flew there under the effect of Perfect Concealment, ignoring other monsters I passed by.
Not long after, I found it. Because I was hiding my presence, this monster did not notice my arrival.
By the way, even though I said nearby, it was quite far from my position, and if I didn't fly here, it would have taken me a long time to get here.
For your information, Crystal Deer looks like a normal male deer you can find on Earth. Even so, it's bigger than the normal deers on Earth.
It has a pair of antlers that look as if they are made from crystal, which is the reason for its name. Each antler has a different color, red like Ruby and blue like Sapphire.
For a moment, I had the urge to preserve its head after killing it off to mount it on a wall. After all, having such a decoration seems cool, don't you think so?
However, I decided to put that plan aside and appraised the Crystal Deer. And a quick Appraisal showed me its status, which was as follows:
...
[STATUS_APPRAISAL]
Race: Crystal Deer
Level: 630
MAG: 15,000
ATK: 10,000
DEF: 10,000
AGI: 15,000
INT: 15,000
LUC: 3,000
...
It could be said that it was the strongest monster I faced yet. From Level 200 Hell Slime to Level 630 Crystal Deer, the level escalation was too much, don't you think so?
And yet, I was not concerned because I did not plan to fight against it openly. I was gonna hunt it, and a hunter did not face its game in the open unless forced to.
'Or rather, I am more like an assassin, aren't I?'
After dismissing that unnecessary thought, I returned the Absolute Spear into the Item Box and prepared the Formless Bow, which was originally slung on my back.
I had no arrow in my possession. However, it was not a problem since the Formless Bow was able to generate an arrow from my magic power.
Once I took aim at the Crystal Deer, I released the energy arrow, which then flew towards the Crystal Deer and pierced its heart, finishing it off in an instant.
The Crystal Deer crumbled on the ground. Dead.
After that, I disappeared into particles of light like other monsters I'd slain. For a magnificent-looking magical beast, its death was anticlimactic, but I didn't mind it too much.
What's important is that the Crystal Deer has died. Case closed.
After that, I summoned the dropped objects scattered where the Crystal Deer once was. Then, I appraised each object one by one.
...
[The Fur of Crystal Deer Fur: It's very comfortable and very popular among royalty and nobles. It has some cold resistance, but the effect is very small.]
...
[The Meat of Crystal Deer: It goes well with a variety of dishes. It's very easy to eat because it has little fat and is fresh.]
...
[Twin Antlers of Crystal Deer: These antlers are special crystals called [Flame Crystal] for the red one and [Aqua Crystal] for the blue one, and they are traded at a very high price. It can be used to create magical items, mostly staffs, wands, or enchanted weapons.]
...
[Ultra-Luxurious Portable Outdoor Bath Set: A rare drop item that can be obtained from the Crystal Deer. A bath that you can take with you everywhere because of its small size in the portable mode. You can easily enjoy various types of baths, such as cypress, stone, jacuzzi, and electric baths everywhere. You can also choose the effect of the tub. The bathtub and water are always clean, so no cleaning or maintenance is required. It also has privacy protection and can be wrapped in a special veil that is not visible from the outside.]
...
The rare Item looked like a small cube the size of my palm. It was perplexing how it could transform into an outdoor bath, but I decided to stop thinking much about it.
Weird things like that were nothing unusual in a world where magic was real, after all.
'Now that I get the portable bath, my next target will be the Toothbrush dropped by the Needle Roller.'
I thought that after storing the dropped items in the Item Box.
Since I already got the bath, I wanted to get the special toothbrush too. Let's complete the set!
At the same time, I decided to push back my lunch since I was in the mood to hunt. Postponing lunch isn't a big deal, and it's not as if I'm going to skip lunch.
After that, I used Akashic Search Engine to find the location of the nearest Needle Roller.
And once I found its location, I flew here.
On the way to the nearest Needle Roller's location, I opened my status to assign free BP from leveling up after slaying the Crystal Deer.
...

I realized something after seeing how much my stats had gone up.
Previously, when I leveled up to Level 100, each level up raised my stats by ten points, and there were also some extra points for rounding up my stats in the end. However, After I surpassed Level 100, each level up raised my stats by fifty points.
With that in mind, I realized that Level 100 was an important hallmark, but I didn't know of any other hallmarks. What if Level 250 was supposed to be a hallmark?
I had passed it, so did it mean I skipped a significant amount of stats points?
'Actually, thinking too much about it is kinda pointless, isn't it? After all, I have Evolution Magic, which can edit my information in the Akashic Records, which means I am beyond the concept of leveling up! Holy shit!'
When that realization hit me, I was stunned speechless and felt stupid due to not thinking of that early. I came back to my senses quickly because I almost fell from the sky in surprise.
Once I stabilized myself, I decided to stop thinking about it and began assigning my available BP. I assigned 4,000 points towards all stats except for LUC, which got the leftover BP.
In the end, my stats increased to 20,000 points, except for LUC that rose to 49,000 points.
Well, the increase was unimportant after my discovery, anyway.
