Inside a crystalline cave, a blonde young man panted in exhaustion, sheathing his tachi back in its scabbard as two Stabber Shardlings dissipated into red cubic particles behind him.
He only got one additional point in strength this time. However, that was enough for Daru.
What mattered more to him was that he had fun fighting the large group of lethal yet fragile swordspawns.
There were a few close calls, and he was bleeding quite heavily himself, but in the end, he was the victor and was able to kill all thirty-four Stabber Shardlings.
He also learned a lot in this battle regarding the matter of fighting off a party or two of assassins, a huge part of which turned out to be positioning and being calm at all times.
Perhaps this experience would help him in the future.
After all, unlike Neo-Earth, the Myriad Sword Realm was more brutal and primitive. A majority of disagreements are resolved through swords.
