Soul Devourer Chapter 3 Episode 28 — Japan vs. Chi*a, The Results of the Skirmish
After the sudden clash between Japanese hunters and Chi*ese hunters came to an end, numerous ambulances, fire engines, and Self-Defense Force vehicles rushed to the scene.
Paramedics transported the injured to nearby hospitals, firefighters worked to extinguish burning cars and buildings, and Self-Defense Force personnel cleared away scattered debris and wrecked vehicles.
Since I was young and still had plenty of stamina, I helped with the cleanup as well.
Once the clock passed midnight, police tape was strung up around the area, and the scene was finally dispersed.
As for what had happened inside the Hunter Guild… apparently, all the guild staff had been slaughtered, and the warehouse storing dangerous items had been ransacked.
(E/N: Damn… 😢)
From here on out, the Guildmaster would no doubt be running around dealing with press conferences, replenishing guild staff, and investigating both the riot caused by〈Grimm Reaper〉and the attack by the Chi*ese hunter group.
There’s also the need to capture the Chi*ese hunters who fled. If it’s just that much, I should be able to help as well.
“Well then, I guess I’ll turn in for the night.”
I skipped taking a bath and settled for a shower, then climbed into bed and quickly fell asleep.

The next morning. I absentmindedly watched an announcer reporting on yesterday’s sudden clash while sipping green tea.
“I left Dad and Mom behind in Hokkaido, so I want to get back there as soon as possible, but I should at least check in with the guild master first… before that, I’ll check my status.”

By taking out three leader-class enemies equivalent to upper-tier S-rank and around two hundred remnants in that sudden battle, my level jumped by nine, and all my attributes increased by roughly eleven thousand.
“Level 100 is coming into view.”
Looking back on the path of growth so far, I felt proud, though at the same time, it was a little disappointing that I was nearing the level cap.
Well, since I can continue growing regardless of level thanks to【Soul Eater】, it’s not enough to really get me down.
Now then. A lot of skills leveled up this time as well, but all my resistances to physical and magical attacks have reached level 10.
With this, damage taken from weapons or magic is halved, and if the opponent possesses the same-named skills, excess experience will just keep piling up.
An unpleasant grin crept onto my face as I checked the details of the two skills that were likely responsible for the special attacks used by the large man and the slender man.
━━━━━━━━━━
【Ki Martial Arts】Lv.3
• Helps manipulate the battle aura (Ki) enveloping the body, compressing it into the fists or legs to sharply strike from long range, unleashing Ki-enhanced Fists or Kicks.
• Power of Ki increases with Strength.
Strength +3, Dexterity +3
※ Unlock Condition: Possess【Martial Arts】Lv.10
——————————
【Slash Arts】Lv.3
• Helps swing weapons classified as swords or one-edged blades at lightning speed from a distance and unleash flying slashes.
• Power of Slash increases with Strength.
Strength +3, Dexterity +3
※ Unlock Condition: Possess【Swordsmanship】Lv.10 or【Katana Arts】Lv.10

I see.
Both are skills of the same tier as【Phantom】. That means those two had reached the top-tier classes of〔Fighter〕and〔Swordsman〕.
If that’s the case, the woman must also have reached the top-tier class of〔Mage〕, but I didn’t acquire any new skills from her.
Either she didn’t have enough skill points to acquire them, or she chose【Conversion】.
Well, it was all over now. Nothing worth worrying about.
Switching my mindset, I started thinking about how to allocate my skill points and excess experience next.
