The fairy was astonished when she heard that her master was only lv.9 not because of his level was low but because he defeated a lv.18 boss as a lv.9 human, her master was a combat genius but she thought any higher than than this will be bad and said,
" We should now go and rest it's close to midnight "
Jack looked at her and and understood her concern but he can't waste any more time and asked seriously
"What is the grade and level of the boss?"
She understood it's no use trying and said
"One year ago he was lord grade lv.16 when I last saw him"
Jack nodded and asked ferra to store all the items here and go inside her subspace and heal him when his hp goes below 50%.
Jack sat and removed few things from his inventory and started eating, and he heard a ding sound and a message popped up in his retina.

Jack came out of the second route in a wider area of the cave and headed inside of the cave he came against few hounds but with his weapon and increased stats he easily defeated them.
* Ding
You have killed lv.15 flame hound and gained 880 exp and 21 tutorial coins.
...
After 15 minutes,
Jack used hit and run tactics to to lure many hounds together and use chain arrow rain to kill them together for more efficient farming and in just 15 minutes he killed 40+ hounds but the loot was nothing new but exp he got was sufficient to level him up to level 10.
*Ding
Congratulations your level has increased to 10.
All your stats increase by 1 and you gain 4 free stat points to distribute.
(As you are first to reach lv.10 in your race you get fame+100, gold treasure chest ×1)
Jack was about to celebrate about reaching lv.10 first but he was alerted by the next massages
(Instincts activated)
(War survival activated)
(Last Survivor activated)
All three messages came together and send shivers down Jack's spine, he activated defencive stance and took a few back steps and saw forward. Three headed hound with with a central head made of black demonic skin and besides him two two headed demonic hounds similar to the one he killed.
he ran backwards while facing forward with grim look but the fairy calmed him and recollected the plan they made and a bow appeared in his hand he made a arrow using mana and coated the arrow using holy water and used a skill while aiming at the lord grade boss from a upward curve just to be safe.
" Holy chain arrow rain"
The three boss grade monsters after the order of lord grade boss used their strongest skill together to make a combination spells and directed it towards the coming attack and the spell released was mixture of 4-5 demonic breath attacks and it can frankly be called as
"Annihilation breath"
The power of breath was so strong that it was worthy of its name for a tire 0 boss, the spell destroyed jacks spell and still had lot of power to spare and hit the roof of the cave and the cave started vibrating and the roof finally collapsed and fell on ground as pieces of stone and ores, jacks barrier resisted a little but it's hp was depleted after few minutes but till then he took a high ground and the shield protected him from the falling rocks, he took some damage but was healed by ferra all in all jack was fine.
The most damage was taken by the two chieftain Ranked bosses, they took the full brunt of the falling rocks and ores with the lord ranked boss and their hp was below half and one boss had his one head smashed and other had a big wound on the back side close to neck.
The lord ranked boss had no apparent injury but his hp was 2/3 and was regenerating but one of his leg was hit by holy arrow causing him pain and reducing his movement speed and the worst thing the roof has fallen directly in front blocking the path of exit.
Jack would have died even if he was touched by a wisp of the spell,
a single decision of making the arrow move upward while aming on a safety whim had saved jacks life and given him a chance to win the impossible fight.
Jack saw the attack made by the hounds and moved as back as he could and added all his free points in physique and raised his shield above his head which saved his life other than ferra's healing.
After 5 minutes, jack came out of the debris and saw from a slit in the rubble the two mini bosses were on the ground wailing in pain and the boss was looking at the rubble and trying to plan a exit and then he saw through the slit maching eyes with jack. Jack looked at him with contempt and grinned with a max mana arrow loosing from his bow, boss tried to avoid but his injury and bows auto aim hit the arrow in his neck causing critical hit.
-532 (critical)
