"The higher the risks, the greater the reward." Sky laughed as he watched the continuous rush of notification windows.
Glancing at the hulking body before him that was lying on the ground, he walked towards it.
One could see one of the demon's sturdy arm detached from its body. Numerous wounds and cuts donned its black physique, with fresh blood gushing out. Even its eyes were bleeding profusely as gaping holes could be seen.
The ground was dyed with crimson blood.
Sky picked up the sword that dropped from the monster alongside quite the numerous miscellaneous items.

After killing the Demon Spawn, Sky's level started rising as if on steroids.
It was a shocking 18 level ups!
"Now, how should I divide the stat points..." he thought as he looked back at his fight against the Demon Spawn.
There is definitely more than one of those monsters on this map.
"Adding points into Strength is a must to increase my attack power, which in turn will quicken my damage output."
"Agility increases my attack speed, so adding points into this stat will elevate my DPS."
"As for Vitality, as long as I don't get hit, even if I don't focus on adding points in this stat, I won't die. With enough Agility, which also improves my movement speed, reaction, and body control, dodging those Demon Spawn's attacks which lacks essence and technique wouldn't be a problem."
'But what about Dexterity.' Sky thought. 'Even though it's on 60 points already, I don't feel any different.'
The introduction said that Dexterity correlates to one's hand-eye coordination, reflexes, and accuracy.
However, to Sky, who possesses unrivaled martial arts, he had long train himself not just in hand-eye coordination, but throughout his entire body!
His reflexes were honed to the point that even if was shot by a gun point-blank, he would be able to dodge with ease!
As for his accuracy, he was extremely versed in all kinds of weapons. If he held a sword, a weapon he was most proficient with, while his virtual body might not be able to keep up with him, the only way that his attacks would miss is through wide attribute gaps or usage of movement skills.
He was literally a superhuman! Someone who had transcended a human's physical limits!
"Ok, it's decided."
"Add 90 points in Strength and Agility."
[Ding!]
[Strength stat has increased by 90 points.]
[Agility stat has increased by 90 points.]

'Now.' Sky licked his lips and grinned. 'Let's hunt.'
*****
At this moment, a group of five consisting of three males and two females arrived at the gloomy forest.
[You have reached Devilwood Forest.]
[Warning! The recommended level for this map is Level 100!]
When the system warnings appeared in the eyes of the members of the group, all of them were surprised.
"Oh? Guild Leader, how come we didn't receive any World Rep for discovering this map."
The one who asked was a blond young man. He was clad in coarse, grey-colored plate armor and wielded a greatsword. He was handsome and exuded a gentle yet firm air, befitting that of a knight which young maidens often dreamed of.
The rest of the members remained silent at his question.
'No way, right?' they all thought at the same time.
They all had the same speculation at that moment yet none of them said what they were thinking.
"Guild Leader." called a woman with long black hair. Wearing a sky-blue robe with a wooden staff in her grasp, she had a face so beautiful that a single glance from her would make one's heart skip.
"It seems that we're not the ones to arrive here first," she said, her face serious.
Meanwhile, Queen, who stood at the forefront of the group, looked afar and seemed to see something as she walked forward.
"Boss?"
"Guild Leader?"
The four members glanced at each other before following after her.
A few moments later—
"What?!"
"Is this real?"
"Who did this?"
The party members were shocked senseless as they stared at the massive corpse of the Demon Spawn.
Fresh blood was still oozing from the dead monster's wounds, suggesting that it had died just recently.
However, despite being already dead, a terrifying aura still exuded from the corpse, suggesting its powerful strength when it had been alive.
Queen's breathtaking face turned serious as she turned to her group.
"It's a dead Demon Spawn. For it to emit such pressure. It's stronger than I initially thought." she said. "The system warned us that the recommended level for this place is at least Level 100, but this monster seems to be stronger than other monsters at the same level."
Kyle, the blond knight, also agreed. "Guild Leader's right. Although we're just here to check out how strong these Devil Spawns are, it seems that keeping our lives will be hard if we ever get their aggro."
Meanwhile, the party's main tank, a man with a muscular bulky figure who held a large round shield, was silent as he stared at the dead corpse.
"There's another issue," he said. "Looking at the Demon Spawn's wounds and cuts, they all look the same."
"What's your point?" Kyle asked.
With an awed yet eager-for-battle expression, a young man clad in complete black attire replied. "Idiot," he said, drawing the glare of the blond knight. "That means that one person took care of that monster there."
'To fight and kill a monster that strong and that high-leveled... for such a player to appear just a day after the game's official launch...'
As he said his words, his eyes involuntarily narrowed as he played with the sharp dagger in his hand.
"That player, is even more of a monster than that monster."
