The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

Chapter 95 - *Spoiler* (Title At End)



After exiting the Trial Tower, Sheila walked out of the toilet, heading back toward her parent that was waiting near the entrance of the Amusement Park. It was supposed to be the time where she could have fun and spend some time with her family, but the sudden intrude by a red-haired girl caused Sheila to feel mentally weary of the former presence. Although Sara and Anthony seemed to be enjoying and didn't mind having her as a company.

She had been wary and suspicious of Angelica at first, though the latter was wearing a very casual outfit, Sheila didn't let her guard down, especially with her parent with her. The fact that Sheila still didn't know her background and that Angelica also hailed from the same magical world was enough reason to be on guard for.

Having been on guard this entire time even though Angelica didn't do anything that would bring danger to both her parent and herself, Sheila feels so very tired mentally, as if her head was being gripped so tightly by powerful hands. And if not for the potion she had just drunk, she would have fainted on the solid ground a moment ago. Even before Angelica's departure, Sara had wanted to bring the latter to their house while ignoring her actual daughter at her side. Thankfully, Anthony was on her side and Sheila successfully stopped the potential danger from visiting her home, although Angelica already knew her address.

When Sheila and her family were on the way home, she told her father to drop her somewhere on the way with the excuse of she was going to meet with her friends. Not knowing that his daughter going to risk her life for the quest, Anthony nodded his head at her request while Sara was reminding her to get home early before they drove off. Looking at the moving car slowly getting smaller, Sheila took a couple of deep breaths and walked forward before turning into the corner. Feeling no presence following after her, Sheila jumped into her own shadow before heading toward the only mountain ahead.

If not for the fact that it's an S-Rank Quest, Sheila would have brought Ria with her to enjoy the sight of how beautiful nature is as they climbed till the top of the mountain. As she climbed further upward, Sheila didn't find anything abnormal around her surroundings as of yet. But the more Sheila goes further higher, the stronger her sixth sense alarming her to turn on her back and run as if her life on the line. Yet Sheila didn't stop, and though she was scared, Sheila also wanted to know whether her guess is correct. 

But she was forced to a halt at a certain spot where the surrounding tree seemed to have been uprooted everywhere, it appears she has arrived at the scene where the supposed earthquake happened. Thankfully, there doesn't seem to be anyone, she has expected to see a few cops or something, trying to investigate the cause of the sudden earthquake. After all, the earthquake has not only taken a few lives, some also got hospitalized for a few months, Anthony included if not for the potion. 

While Sheila was pondering on whether to steps forward, her forehead was already soaked with sweats due to a frightening aura ahead. It was a monstrous aura that's filled with destruction, her sixth sense was also warning her if Sheila ever steps a foot beyond a certain line, her life would be forfeited. That was how scary and fearsome whatever the thing ahead of her is. 

While Sheila stood on the spot within the shadow as she ponders, a sudden tremor brought her to reality as she looked up in alert. Her eyes went wide as every fiber of body was screaming for her to run as fast as possible from the thing in front, but her legs seemed to be glued on the ground as no matter how many times she tried to make it move, it was futile. Sheila gritted her teeth hard and right before the monstrosity ahead was about to do something, her legs finally were able to move, and without waiting further, Sheila immediately sprints back down the mountain without looking back.

Just as she was 20 meters far from her previous spot, she could feel another powerful tremor from her feet and even without looking back, she knows that the 'monstrosity' must have used the earthquake attack just like what it had done to her father when he came to investigate. Once she was far enough and was sure that no more tremor following right behind her, a relieved sigh escaped out of her mouth as she slows down running pace before falling her butt on the ground as exhaustion washed over her whole body.

Sheila tried to take a deep breath to calm down her frightening heart and mind, but the fear she has experienced a while ago is not something she had ever experience in her whole life. Just the mere gaze from 'that' would make any strong-mind person to break in cold sweats or some would even faint, if Sheila didn't have the sudden strength to move her legs, her fate would have been decided right there and then.

Sheila already know that Ogre could see right through her even though she was hiding within the shadow back then, that was why she was not surprised that the 'monstrosity' noticed her presence way before she did. Sheila didn't know how and why such monstrosity was there, she even thoughts that she was hallucination if not for her whole body still trembling from the fear. She remembers that her father came to investigate when his colleagues told him about a powerful magnetic field suddenly appearing somewhere in the mountain, but to think that something like that to appear... Sheila couldn't help but started to feel anxious.

The monstrosity was huge with a body like that of crocodile, if Sheila didn't have the Analyse skill, she would have thought it was a variant of a crocodile. If what she saw was right, that was... something that the current her couldn't think of doing anything to it, even if she went all out.
