Richard asked," we killed like 50 of them, yet only a piece of something dropped. How many did you kill to get a full set ", Damian shrugged," i didn't count how many i killed ", Richard asked," what is your skill then? There is a status window right? What is your level and awakened skill? ".
Damian said," you go first ", Richard said," I'm currently level 2, my awakened skill is : Stone Skin. It's a C rank skill ", Damain whistled," good for you. My skill is Alchemy - ", a voice interrupted them," useless for combat. I read in novels, it about making potions or something right. How did you gather all gear ".
Damian said," I made make shift molotovs using Alchemy and threw them on the monsters. They're burned to death ", he turned to see Laura, the student commitee president. Laura pressed," then prove it, just because you knew Richard's habits doesn't prove anything. Produce a molotov ".
Damian asked," why should I? ", Laura said," to join us, you need to prove you're not an imposter. Prove that with innate skill, produce a molotov bomb thing and we'll believe you ", Damain raised an eyebrow," first of all, I didn't come here to join you, I'm here to check on everyone and also inform you about the exit condition. Second, you're gravely mistaken if you think it can't be used in combat ".
Damain put his hands on the ground and said," Alchemy : Transfigure ", in just a moment, from the ground spikes rose. Laura looked at the skill in intrigue. She then asked," what do you mean exit condition. Isn't that blocked? ".
Damian said," yes, it's blocked but it can also be unlocked. There are 4 elites in our campus. Two of which I killed, Demon Wolf and Orc are out. Now we have three left, two elites and one boss. We need to slay them all to exit here or else we'll be stuck here for 30 days with monster numbers increased by 5 times ".
Laura expression turned serious," let's say we believe you. But how are you able to read the conditions when we can't ", Damain said," cause i slayed two elites. Maybe, i don't know. I said what I said, if there is nothing you can prepare for the upcoming raids if we want to get out. We have only 2 days more for this. I came to inform you about this. Now I'll take my leave ".
Damian turned and started walking away. Laura called," wait, join us. Together we'll have big chance to do this hunt, going solo is basically suicide. You may have survived until now and killed two elites but the situation may not like that always. Only by sticking together can we get through this ".
Damian shrugged," I'm still not going join ", Laura asked," why? ", Damain said," too many people too little hunting gains. So sorry, I'm going my own path, I'll start another elite hunt tomorrow ", Laura but her lips and asked," then why come here? Just to taunt us ".
Damian said," no I'm here to share the mission. If I were to fail, at least you'll face the situation and live. Also to give you some food I collected. Here, some canned food, rations and water. Now that's done, I'll be on my way ", Damain put the food from his inventory there he can just take food from the dorms kitchen again, activating wind boost, his feet coated in wind and he immediately moved away tens meters in couple of seconds.
As Damain reached the dorms again, stacked some food in his inventory, then he chose a room, he directly dismantled the door and placed a wall instead using alchemy trasfigure once again. Where the window used to be now lay a reinforced metal frame with iron chain net, for ventilation. Stretching his body, Damian took a bath, ate the food from his inventory and slept for the day.
But at midnight, he felt pain and woke up to see someone looking at him with a smile. Damian recognised him, Kevin Roger, he is a student known for his bad reputation, bullying, harassing girls in his class, threatening teachers, beating up students.
Kevin laughed and said," didn't expect it'll be that easy to kill - ", half through his laughter, when he removed the knife, the wound healed instantly and Damian threw a punch that sent Kevin flying back to the wall. Kevin spit out blood and looked at Damain in disbelief.
[ Consumed one soul fragement to heal injuries ]

Then he started shrinking but how can Damian allow him to escape, he immediately retrieved his sword from the inventory, without hesitation, he stabbed Kevin in the heart, the shrinking stopped immediately and Kevin is back to his original shape, he has an unwilling and resentful look before he died.

Damian felt nauseous, this is the first time he killed a human. It's uncomfortable for him. Damian looked at the sword in his hand blankly, for a few moments he was in shock, then gradually came out of it. Then anger came, he is caught off guard, what if he didn't even get a chance to heal. What if a monster swallowed him whole, will he survive then using the healing function of consuming a soul fragement.
This shattered some of his confidence. He may have collected more than a hundred soul fragements, but he is still vulnerable and can die. Truly an eye opening for him. Damian looked at Kevin," the shapeshifting criminal huh. Thank you for the lesson Kevin ".
Damian placed his hand on the corpse, he immediately used Astral Alchemy on Kevin.
[ Extracted 15*soul fragments, Skill : Shapeshift (B) ]

Kevin's body seems to have lost something now. It looked pale. Damian threw Kevin's body out first from the window and then took a deep breath.
