Chapter 33 - Helping John

The adventurer saw Lee Han already above the Lion's head, holding two swords in each hand. 

With only a blink, he could see Lee Han flying, swinging his swords a few times, and in just a few breaths, the Lion's head was severed from its body.

"What the hell! Can he be that fast? How can he do that?" The adventurer gasped in shock. He never thought Lee Han, ranked Copper three, could possess such speed and strength. 

He couldn't clearly see Lee Han's swift movements, only catching glimpses of a black shadow flying around the lion monster's head.

His shock did not fade; he saw Lee Han move again to another lion's head. With the same speed and strength, he swung his sword several times, and another head fell on the ground, cleanly severed from its head.

"How could he slice through the Lion's head so fast and effortlessly? Does he have a magic aura? Is that why he can do that?"

The adventurer no longer shot at the three-headed lion monster, afraid his bullets would hit Lee Han even though his gut told him Lee Han would probably evade his strays of bullets easily. 

In just a few seconds, the monster's massive body fell to the ground, causing the earth around them to rumble slightly as if there were earthquakes. 

The monster they had fought for almost thirty minutes now died in less than a minute after Lee Han helped them.

Two adventurers were frozen, gasping in shock at what they had witnessed. 

Not only the two adventurers who were shocked but also a few others who were fighting around them could see what happened. They were all shocked, looking at Lee Han.

"Damn, Lee Han! That was incredible! How did you do that?" the adventurer who held swords in his hand shouted. His eyes fixed on Lee Han, who still stood on the lion monster's body.

Lee Han didn't rush to answer him; he leaped from the lion monster's body and landed a few steps from the two adventurers who had ganged up to kill the beast. He glanced at them while taking a deep sigh.

"Bro... this is why you need to attack using your brain," Lee Han said, looking at the adventurer with the rifle. "Bro, you should focus on the Lion's feet to immobilize the monster. While you—" he then turned to the adventurers with swords. "You should aim for the monster's head and attack the eyes. Why are you focusing on the lion monster's feet?"

Earlier, Lee Han felt frustrated watching them fight monsters. They attacked randomly without considering the monster's weakness or having a plan. 

Although Lee Han had never encountered this kind of evolved beast in real life, he had fought them in the game and knew their weaknesses. Strangely, their weaknesses were the same here. This allows him to defeat the monster quickly.

Lee Han no longer cares about them; he now checks notifications in his system.

[Congratulations, Adventurer Lee Han, you have received 30 Gold coins.]

'Why didn't I level up?' Lee Han is perplexed. He leveled up after slaying a weak vampire but not after defeating a boss-level monster.

'Master, from now on, you will need more experience to level up. You are now Copper Level nine.'

'I see. It looks like I need to work harder...' He smiles. 

...

The two adventurers' faces turned grim upon hearing Lee Han's advice. What Lee Han said was indeed correct. The problem was they couldn't execute those moves with such speed. 

"Lee Han, what I'm trying to ask is how you effortlessly leap three meters up there? And have such incredible speed?" Timmy asked curiously.

"Of course, I just leap as usual… why do you look so shocked? You can do that too, right?" Lee Han scratched his head, chuckling inwardly at his silly question.

Timmy, "...."

He was speechless hearing Lee Han's words. This was the first time someone had casually said such words to him. He can't do that; his rank is still too low to perform such a move.

"You're Copper Rank level three, right? Well, only Silver Rank can perform such a move with that speed. You can't do that. Not possible. Unless you have a magic aura. But I can feel that you don't have that," Timmy said. His tone evidently shows his suspicion of Lee Han having hidden his power grew more substantial. 

Lee Han was stunned. This is new to him; he never knew about the gap power between the Silver Rank and the Copper Rank.

'Lara, is what he said true? Only Silver Rank can perform such movements?' Lee Han asked. 

'Yes, master. He is correct.'

'So, what rank are they now?' 

'Bronze rank. That's why they cannot leap to the monster's head.' Lara explained.

Lee Han chuckled inwardly. Now he understood why they were shocked to see him kill the Three Head Lion Monster so fast. 

"Alright, gentlemen... I won't explain anything now because we must help the others. Hurry up, go help your friends—" Lee Han said and vanished from their sight.

Lee Han decided to help John because three vampires were ganging up on him. He worried John would die if no one helped him.

Later, he appeared behind John. 

"What the hell, Lee—" John was shocked, looking at Lee Han, who suddenly appeared behind him. At the same time, the three vampires stopped attacking John, too. They seem suprised by a newcomer. 

"Bro, I will help. Stop refusing me; you will die in minutes if you fight them alone," Lee Han interrupted.

John couldn't argue. He only worried that Lee Han would die before Zoey arrived, but he knew he couldn't fight these three vampires alone. They were too powerful.

"Focus on the two vampires before you. I will take care of this one—" Lee Han's eyes fixed on the female vampire.

She appeared like a goddess with the same allure as the female vampire Lee Han had seen earlier, except this one had black hair cascading behind her alluring body, while the other had red hair.

John gave in. "Fine! But make sure you don't die, or General Zoey will kill me."

Lee Han smiled at John's words. "You'll die at their hands before Zoey arrives, bro. You made the right decision now," he pats John's shoulder before marching toward the female vampire.
