Kaelion focuses a little more and spots the scavenging foxes ahead…
Kaelion: Looks like I interrupted someone's feast…
(draws his sword)
1 2 3 5 7? How many foxes are there like this??
Kaelion: My mana is enough for 2 Shadow Breaks… Let's try this!
12 foxes leap at him all at once…
SHADOW BREAK!
[-100 HP ×12]
He knocks the foxes away…
Kaelion: This time, I won't use Death Pulse…
(advances forward)
Deals superficial damage to 2 foxes.
Kaelion: Ah… Without Death Pulse, my damage is weaker and I feel considerably slower and heavier…
[-100 HP ×2]
If I had used Death Pulse, I could have killed these 2 foxes and dealt lethal damage to many more… But it's fine!
The foxes regroup and leap at him again.
SHADOW BREAK!
[-100 HP ×10]
Kaelion: What? It seems the foxes I damaged before didn't leap at me…
They're starting to recognize me…
But this time, everything is different!
(focuses on one fox)
He straightens his sword… AAAHHH
(thrusts forward)
[-300 HP]
[Fox (Corrupted)] Killed…
XP 4000/4000.
Level UP…
Current Level: -3
Max HP: -500
Max MP: -300
(A piece of skin falls from his face)
Supposedly, I leveled up… But my body tells me otherwise…
Distracted, the foxes bite Kaelion from different directions…
[-30 HP] ×10
Kaelion: Ah… That hurt!! Damn foxes won't let up!!!
I have no choice…
NULL VEIL!
The foxes collapse to the ground, trying to comprehend what just happened…
Kaelion: That was close…
HP -500 / -170
MP -300 / -200
He moves behind the foxes…
2-1…
SHADOW BREAK!
(HP below 50%, Shadow Break is twice as effective)
[-150 HP ×11]
System Message… Foxes caught off guard… 1-second daze and will take 20% more damage
from the next attack. (1 sec stun)
(Because of 20% Shadow Break and 20% ambush bonus, foxes take 40% more damage)
DEATH PULSE!
Kaelion: Even with superficial attacks through them, I feel like I could kill them all…
(kneels and strikes with all his power)
[-230 HP][-260 HP][-300 HP][-270 HP][-320 HP] …
[Fox (Corrupted) ×11] Killed
XP 6000/2200
Kaelion: Ah… I feel myself growing stronger, slowly but steadily…
Among my abilities, there are actually nice gaps for combos…
If I keep practicing, I'll adapt to my class faster…
For now, I'll continue on my path…
