Chapter 98: What level am I?
Fast. Precise with no wasted movements and most of all, the best possible method to level. Though it wasn't a luxury that was available to anyone and everyone. Carrying someone was once looked down upon, considering that old-school MMORPGs players focused more on working towards their goal by themselves and themselves only, however, as time went on, the difficulty of the games increased as well. Especially when the subject is Genesis which is almost another life, another reality, getting carried or power leveled was something that even some of the members of KYOJIN suggested and supported.
Of course, the very obvious downsides being, the exp is shared, if the team isn't coordinated enough then it puts all the members of the party at risk, even the ranker who's driving the bus. (Terminology = driving the bus: Means to carry a group of players, the players are said to be 'riding the bus' which meant that they are being/getting carried)
However, such downsides didn't matter if the driver was strong or skilled enough to kill mobs in a few seconds, the speed and strength more than makes up for the shared exp. In Night and Nate's case, to say it was a breeze or a walk in the park for Nate wouldn't be an understatement.
A variety of mobs were found since they were no longer around the outskirts of the Norse Kingdom, there was no specific species of monsters present, wolves, goblins, kobolds, though rare, they even managed to come across harpies. The kobolds and the harpies were relatively new to Night but that didn't really stop them from dying in a few shots or sometimes even a single shot.
While Harpies were aerial creatures, they didn't necessarily dominate, their bodies were considerably weaker than most mobs, and a single dark arrow that hits its head was more than enough to finish it, their only plus point is that they use dark magic, unfortunately for them, Night was literally their worst opponent, even flying higher wouldn't really help them, as he would just follow them into the sky or just casually shoot his arrows.
"I can't get over the fact that you know how to fly.....and what's with those arrows," Nate frowned as he watched his friend wreck everything, he felt a little sad for the monsters, even though the mobs around this area were level 100, Night just slashed, sometimes he wasn't even paying attention and on the rare occasion that he missed, his weirdly cute flying dragon would take care or else, the dark-haired Guardian would suddenly appear behind the mob and slash at it or sometimes he would just send an ice-trident flying.
"It truly is amazing...he told me about the pet and the guardian but still..to actually see them fight...the pet itself is strong enough to go ahead on against a ranker and the guardian....there's nothing to say, other than 'it is to be expected', though the pet definitely does have a stronger aura by the looks of it, oh he isn't that old?? hmm, I'm not sure..." Nate muttered to himself while ignoring the notification sounds he received every minute or so.
"Nate...." Night panted, "What do you think, can we hit 100 in the next few days or nah?"
"Is that even a question? I'm already close to level 82....and it's been a little over a few hours? and the only reason it's been that long is because of the lack of monsters!" Nate said as he crossed his arms.
"Haha, I told you I would show you some real speed, besides, we could just sit back and watch, both Shade and Noctis are strong enough to clear everything here, I'm not sure if they can take a boss though, considering that requires experience and all..."

Time passed quickly as the two of them were now on their way to Luke's childhood home in Montreal, after constantly grinding and almost clearing out every single mob that they saw, the two of them were drained out, Night because he was the driver and carried Nate by quickly killing everything and Nate because he stood behind and peacefully watched his friend slaughter the monsters.
"Yo, I hope you're good, we should reach in an hour or two, with all this traffic it doesn't look like it'll be any sooner, thankfully we made the decision to come earlier but by the looks of it we weren't the only ones, depending on how the taxi dude drives we can avoid the traffic I think but let's see," Nate said as he looked out of the car window.
"We're living in a world where games like Genesis can be created and technology that can defy logic exists and yet traffic is still an issue...haah," Night sighed, "oh yeah, I told you so,"
"I can't really believe it but we did it, literally thanks to you. 2 and a half days...that's all it took you...next time it'll be me carrying you!" Nate said as he punched his friend's shoulder, "we did it bro....
I'm level 100...."
