Chapter 109 Saving The Fairies And Reaching Level 20
Well, the Demon King of Miasma also revived for some reason, mostly just game reasons. Perhaps his underlings, even the smallest of creatures compared to his great power, also revived with him? So that means I already killed two of his underlings without realizing it properly… well, their descriptions never said anything about being the demon king\'s underling, they were just random monsters. I have read that mini bosses just spawn in areas where many smaller monsters are killed, so I assumed it was merely that but-
CRAAASH!
Uwah! The snakes are furious, and covered in soot? Wait, no, that\'s miasma. And they\'re overflowing with this dark power all around them. I bet they just want to slaughter the fairies for no good reason at all.
"T-Those are snakes!" Said Sporegon.
"Yeah, it is pretty obvious…" Sighed Magius.
"…!" Hunter was the first to act, pointing an arrow towards one of the snakes reaching the buffalo that was being surrounded.
FLASH!
The arrow was fired at an incredible speed, precisely landing over the snake\'s head and piercing through its brain and skull, the creature instantly turned into particles of light and died on the spot. Wow, amazing, Hunter!
"Let\'s move, quickly!" I commanded, as everyone nodded. I quickly called Belle, Loki, and Silver to action. Belle was the most eager to fight, as she ran straight towards the snakes who had yet to process the big one leading them just died. Using the sharp ornaments over her horns I made out of scales from the lake snake, she clashed against three snakes at once, pushing them down with a strong horn attack and then crushing them with her sharp hoofs.
CLAAASH!
POOF! POOF! POOF!
Her powerful attacks quickly slew three snakes at once, as they turned into particles of light. Loki moved rather fast as well, as her vines entangled two snakes, grabbing them, and holding them high only to make them hit the ground strongly until they died out of the accumulated damage.
Silver in the other case had more refined way of fighting, as she had magic. She quickly began firing bullets of water from her mouth, hitting the bodies of the snakes nearby, which had almost her same size. They died after three shots, leaving them with big holes over their bodies, although they disappeared leaving only items.
Sporegon swung his sword swiftly, slicing the head of the snakes while jumping around, his small and nimble body made him a rather good swordsman despite how ridiculous it could look like. Meanwhile, Hunter fired his arrows with great precision, taking down several snakes, all while Magius unleashed cutting winds against the rest of the snakes. I could just sit down and watch as they did their job, but I decided to work as well.
I had already created some unique spells that I could make, such as Wooden Spear, something that is not available in the Green Magic Spells of low level, easily forming these spears by summoning wood through [Wood Shield] and then shaping it through my ability to shapeshift plants, transforming the shields into spiraling spears of wood as sharp as they could be and launching them in midair against the largest spiders in the vicinity.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
The buffalo and the fairies stood there in silence as they saw the massacre ensue, there were over twenty of these snakes, named "Miasmic Venomous Purple Snake", they were Miasmic Beasts, and were all around Level 10 to Level 14. They were not that low level at all, so they provided a decent amount of EXP, and also, some unexpected items such as Snake Meat, which looked rather nice.
When the hunt finished, I collected all the items, receiving a lot of loot and also enough EXP to finally reach max level to boot!
Ding!
[You and your party have defeated [Miasmic Venomous Purple Snake: Lv10 ~ 14] x26!]

[You have reached max level in both categories, you are now able to [Evolve] your Race, and also go through a [Class Changing Quest]. To access these features request further guidance from your Guide Spirit and the System]
Oh, I can now evolve! Nice, and also change Class? But what can I even change to? Damn, and it is tied to some quest?! I can\'t just do it and that\'s it? …Ah, well, I can evolve right away if I want to, but that would leave me only leveling the race and not the class, that\'s a bit annoying, I like both of them being synchronized if possible.
Anyways, I ignored the System Messages as we quickly went to check on the fairies. These people were not as small as I imagined them, as they were still quite big, as big as cats, in fact. But they could still be qualified as small people, yeah, very small people. It was a group of four, all of them more adorable than the other, they had the appearances of young girls and boys rather than grown adults.
"Thank you for saving us!"
An adorable pink-haired fairy girl greeted us.
