The monsters felt the change in themselves instantly, but the change did not happen from one moment to another but started slowly while the core adapted to distribute the statistics of the monsters, first it was one by one then three in three and thus increasing the number of monsters.
The total time taken to achieve change in all the monsters took a total of 6 hours and a dozen minutes, but the place where the change was most drastic was in the last room on the second floor and the entire third floor.
This was because all the monsters in that area exceeded level 10-15 and have accumulated all their unused points, which made the change gigantic, this caused some pressure on the Kobolds that felt the great change, but even they managed to keep calm.
In those 6 hours, Alex advanced towards the exit of the room and reached it while also managing to reach almost the top of his required experience.
This time Alex took a short time to get to the exit and that was because there was nothing to stop him or slow him down, he ran straight to the exit since he finished eating his skewers, he maintained a high speed with which it was easy to reach the exit, apart that this time the entrance and exit of the room were not opposite positions, this greatly cut the distance that Alex needed to travel, the only complicated part of his trip was having to climb the mountain slope.
It was complicated by how slippery the hillside was because of the humidity in the environment at a great height.
This would have been easier if Alex knew that on the other side of the mountain there was a path made by the Kobolds to climb the mountain.
But when Alex was happy to see the exit "Grooagh!" A roar interrupted his thoughts as he was also struck off guard by the aura of the beast.
<Hehe ~ I had a welcome when I arrived and now I have a farewell> Alex looked with interest at the beast that launched itself from the top of the mountain towards him.
The beast lifted pieces of stone from the ground cracked by its landing *Pump! pump!* and it started hitting its chest and that caused a serious sound, every time it hit its chest with one of its hands.
The beast in front of Alex is a primate very similar to the apes, but the difference is that it has some bumps on its body that appear to be a bone out of the skin like armor, on the elbows, shoulders, forehead, knuckles, knees, and chest.
"Uh uh~" The ape wobbled from side to side with his clumsy hind legs while he punches his chest, to annoy Alex.
But while the ape seems to play dumb, it begins to be surrounded by silver mana, at the moment the mana appeared, the ground around the ape cracked.
Alex moved sideways to have more space to maneuver while thinking <A new type of Magic Element that I don't recognize> Alex's eyes sharpened as he began to crouch and move at a slow pace, but elegantly he moved around the ape.
The ape looked at Alex as he felt a strange sensation coming from Alex that made him watch "Hmp!" Alex snorted while he showed a smile of expectations, but when he showed his smile, the ape could only see how Alex disappeared in front of him, as if disappearing into the air and its eyes were the last to disappear.
[DANGER!] The ape's instinct shouted shortly after Alex disappeared from its place, the ape only reacted by reflex when jumping away from his current position, but for the lack of time, he only used his normal strength and was not reinforced himself with mana.
But when he was about to jump, powerful claws were buried in his shoulder, just where his armor doesn't protect him.
<Where are you going! If this is just beginning!> Alex forced the ape to stay in the place with his powerful strength and his claws that hurt the ape.
Angry and upset, the ape gave free rein to his mana by letting him influence his surroundings.
*Woosh!* A silver bubble spread all over the place, but Alex was not touched by the mana, at the moment when he felt the ape's mana increase dramatically, he released it and walked away while waiting to identify the magical element of the beast.
The bubble began to distort the environment as if it was an image altered at strange angles *Cr-CRAK* but the sound of the groundbreaking and the cracks in the ground coming out of the bubble, showed that it was really cracking and as if it had never existed, the mana returned into the ape which was standing in the middle of all the chaos with its wound healed while looking angrily at Alex.
"Gah ... gah~" The ape is hyperventilating as his shoulders tremble with anger.
*Woosh!* The bubble appeared again, but this time it expanded quite a bit and it hit Alex who was taken by surprise since it was in a blink that the bubble formed.
The ape showed a smile as he began to accumulate mana in his fists.
<!!!... I can't move> Alex was surprised to be able to see his surroundings, but not being able to move a muscle crumb, he could only see how the ape began to approach while thundering its fingers and showing a smile of emotion.
The ape positioned himself to hit Alex with all his strength in his chest and thus kill him with a blow as he always has done, but when he was gathering mana to achieve a powerful blow, he felt as the temperature began to rise, he didn't understand the why.
But when he looks into Alex's eyes he was amazed, finding no fear, he only found euphoria, anger, and determination.
The fire began to surround Alex, at first it was a small flame, but as if coming into contact with alcohol, the flame grew out of control.
The ape had to withdraw from the abysmal heat that surrounded Alex with his yellow flames, the ape backed away from his mana to protect himself from the heat that began to burn him, but when he was gathering his mana, he felt a great resistance, as if his mana were being clamped.
*Pop!* The connection with his mana broke as the fire that surrounded Alex became bigger and wild.
"It was a pleasant surprise, what you did, but it didn't make me happy -nya" Alex's figure became visible among the yellow fire that surrounded him.
The ape did not understand Alex's meowings but it understood that he had become angry, something that it could not care less, so it with its mana armor threw itself at Alex while surrounding its fists with its magic element with which it stopped time and it didn't allow Alex to affect its mana.
Alex dodged the attacks easily, but he still received damage since the two small bubbles in the ape's fists seemed to be an extension of its attacks and not just a protective layer of fire.
The ape started an uncoordinated attack on Alex, but every time he hit he didn't feel like touching anything other than the yellow flames had blocked his view and he didn't allow him to see where Alex is to hit him.
"Let's do an experiment-Nya!" Alex appeared behind the ape with a small black sphere near his face and when Alex finished meowing, the sphere shot towards the ape.
The little sphere made the ape's instinct cry out that it was dangerous, annoying, the ape decided to resolve the annoyance as the only way he knows, hitting until it stops bothering him.
So he threw his fist reinforced and surrounded by his element towards the small sphere *Bup!* But he was pleasantly surprised to see that it was not destroyed, but stuck to his hand, confused turning to look at Alex.
Only to find Alex sitting in his place with a catlike smile when suddenly his instinct shouted again [Danger!!!] but in a more desperate way than before, but it was too late since Alex spoke "[Darku Bitou]!"
*
The ape fell to his knees while holding his left arm "GHAAGH!!" He let out a powerful scream in pain as he stains the ground with his blood the ground.
"Don't be a baby! We're just starting-nyah!" Alex shouted a little hysterically at the cry of the ape which was hyperventilating, but when it turned to Alex, it was terrified of what he saw.
Alex was sitting just like before, but now there were 8 spheres surrounding him with the size of his head and all expiring a sense of death.
"Die for me-nya" Alex tilted his head to the side as he showed his most adorable cat smile possible, but for the ape, it was the opposite and seeing him smile caused it to faint from fear.
The black spheres stuck to the ape's body in different parts of his body.
<For this idea I was afraid before... but it was worth exploring, although it only took me to rank C> Alex thought as he watched as the ape's body was shattered when the spheres disappeared one after the other, luckily Alex doesn't hear its scream since one of the first spheres made its head disappear.
