Surviving the Apocalypse While Being Tempted by an Elf and a Dark Elf

Chapter 190: Undead Army (4)

                Luke spent the rest of the day punishing himself like that. Thanks to that, both skills reached level three. While he felt like taking a break from that masochistic training, he couldn't do it anymore since that motivated the elves. Even after their meals, they stayed outside, being hit by the skeletons.

"It seems you are starting to enjoy this training. This is kind of hot," Shalia said while she licked her lips, which only made her look weird with that size.

"Don't assume any weird things regarding me…" Luke said. "I am just satisfied with the progress of the skills. Anyway, it doesn't seem like many creatures or overlords pass through this area, but it is only a matter of time before we are found out with this many people training outside. Let's make a training room inside the mountain."

"This will take some time, and we have to find the others," Rina said. "Besides, we should check things on Earth before doing any of that."

                They could always outsource those tasks, but going and checking things on Earth wasn't possible. To save time, they could send messengers to the other hideouts and inform the other groups that Rina was back, but that would sound convincing. It will be better to show them that it is time to strike back. Still, Luke followed Rina's advice and decided to check things at home. He had also forgotten about something, but as soon as he returned, he recalled it.

"Oh, yeah… there was this as well," Luke said. "It seems that they are doing well raising so many monsters."

            Regardless, Luke was teleported back home, but there was no one inside, even though it was so early in the morning. When Luke left the house, he didn't find any of his tamed monsters either. Not even the ones who had been born just a few days ago. Fortunately, he could see the walls from that position, and he saw his parents there before he could get worried.

"I am back… anything new around here?" Luke asked when he approached his parents.

            Before he could get an answer, Luke heard some impacts on the other side of the wall, and he decided to jump over it to check. He noticed that his parents were watching his friends on the other side. Amanda and Celia were facing each other… but without weapons in their hands. They were facing each other by using the monsters they tamed. Amanda had a Red Fang, and Celia had a Mud Doll.

"The heck are they doing?" Luke frowned.

"They discovered that the monsters could become pretty strong even without killing each other. They just had to face each other seriously," Mark explained.

"I am not sure how I feel while I watch this…" Julia said.

            Luke didn't know either. Still, he was someone who was harming himself to get stronger, so was he in the place to judge others about how they try to get stronger? Treating monsters like pocketmons didn't seem that smart either. There were countless enemies outside waiting to be slain. Instead of using their resting time for that, it would be better to let them improve their condition.

"By the way, your letters are weird," Mark said. "It is like you are writing a list… today, I did this, this, and this…"

"Forgive me if writing isn't my forte," Luke said. "Regardless, you are avoiding my first question."

"Am I?" Mark frowned. "Well, nothing really happened… aside from the fact that the coast has been full of monsters. A species of creature that is half fish and half man."

"Mermen?" Luke frowned.

"Richter called them Sahuagin when he used Appraisal," Mark replied.

"Are they strong?" Luke asked.

"When they are away from any river, lake, or even the ocean, they lose about half of their strength," Mark replied. "But near those, they are even more troublesome than the ice goblins. However, the real problem is that they are following some rivers upstream, and their numbers are big. Soon they will reach this camp. In fact, the number of fish is already decreasing."

            Since Richter fought them, then that comparison was probably correct. In any case, that seemed like a problem… Luke looked toward Rina and Shalia, but they just shrugged. That was an enemy that they had never heard of.

"I suppose this is a natural problem given that our surface is two-thirds of water," Luke rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"They are aquatic monsters and the people of New York Electric attacks, so I am sure we will be fine," Julia said. "Instead of that, I am worried about your pets that keep giving birth to new ones."

              Julia pointed to the river, and Luke saw Danielle playing with several of them while she fished. Luke already had fifteen of them, and their numbers were increasing and will keep increasing the way Danielle fed them.

"Look who is back," Amanda said when their little battle ended.

"Your level… how did you level up so much?" Richter frowned.

"I will only answer if you tell me how you can hide your status," Luke said.

"That guy is the one who hides my status… in any case, I guess you killed another overlord," Richter said. "Hey, I am already strong enough, right? Why can't I go to other worlds like him?"

"My world will destroy you in a matter of seconds… it can't be compared to the worlds of elves who have only been fighting for a couple of years."

              Richter and his shadow began to argue about that.. As one would expect, Richter didn't like the idea that someone was at a higher level than him. That made Luke realize… will the problem be solved by freeing Earth and Rina and Shalia's worlds from the clutches of monsters and overlords?
