My SSS-Rank Clone Talent: I Level Up Endlessly! novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102: Encounter?

That’s right, Eryke had arrived in the Martial World.

"This is the best place for me to hide. Hardly any technological development," he muttered, humming a tune to himself. There was no way he could fight that thing with the entire world working against him.

For starters, he didn’t even know how to defeat the guy. So, he chose World Travel and escaped to this place.

You see, it wasn’t just his clones that could travel between worlds, he could too. But until now, he hadn’t dared. The other worlds were too dangerous, and he didn’t want to risk his life.

Now, though, the danger at that gate was simply too great.

Eryke had a faint, nagging feeling: even if he somehow managed to defeat the Leviathan, another enemy might descend from the skies to smite him.

So, he chose the smartest option, World Travel to the Martial World, and decided to chill for a while.

"Definitely one of the best places to live," he murmured.

This world was peaceful and spiritual, something you rarely found in modern cities filled with towering buildings and the endless noise of traffic.

"Ha." He exhaled, a puff of white mist escaping his lips.

The crisp, cool air wrapped around him. It was calm and refreshing, something he found himself genuinely enjoying.

"Lalala~"

Eryke turned his gaze to the blue prompt glowing in front of him.

[You have managed to slay Leviathan, the World-Ender of the Guardian Beast World]

[You have gained 164 EXP]

[The Leviathan has revived due to external influence]

[Your EXP has been halved: 82 EXP]

"Hmm, experience? That’s new."

Eryke furrowed his brow. "Has the system changed or something?"

Immediately, the prompt in front of him shifted.

"This is new."

Eryke stared at the updated panel, deep in thought.

"Is this because of my strength?" This thought immediately appeared in his mind as he contemplated.

"With my strength increase, this blue panel might be evolving with me."

Although it was a small change, this might trigger a bigger event in the future. Who knows the future?

Eryke was definitely excited about it as he gripped forward at the sky with thoughtfulness.

His tired, weary eyes gradually closed.

"Sigh." Eryke the Third travelled around the place, circling around Eryke to protect him.

"My life is tough."

In his gaseous form, he was like an ethereal existence, like a ghost hunting living things.

It was quite the eerie sight to see, one that could make the people who saw him be scared shitlessly of being a ghost.

"What should I do here now?" he wondered silently.

Eryke the Third glanced at the main body, who had already fallen fast asleep, and paused thoughtfully.

"Well, I didn’t receive any instructions... but guarding him is what he’d want," he muttered.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

The moons hung at their highest point, the moment of culmination, their silvery glow bathing the peaceful forest in a gentle light.

Within this calm forest, a small shadow darted rapidly through the underbrush.
