Chapter 60: (2). Second Evolution -1
â You have leveled-up. You have reached Lv. 62.
A pleasant message announced his level-up.
Ian wiped the sweat on his forehead.
âGaining levels is not hard yet. I should work faster nowâŚâ
It took a little more than a week to reach Lv. 62 from Lv. 50 with 90% EP.
It was an insanely fast speed, ordinary users would have shaken their heads at hearing this.
However, Ian wasnât satisfied.
No, he couldnât be satisfied.
He couldnât rest until he reached Lv. 93.
âAt least I am hunting a little faster now thanks to the special class skills gained at Lv. 60.â
Ian had gotten another two special class skills when he reached Lv. 60.
The skill that had the highest Proficiency among Ianâs skill was Training that was about to reach
Advanced, so he got another skill that was about Potential.
âShall I check the Proficiency of Exploding Potential?â
Ian opened the skill information of his new special skill.
Cooldown Time: 20 minutes
Lasting Time: 1 minute 20 seconds
Usage Limit: Can only be used on pets.
Make petâs Potential explode.
All battle abilities of the pet increase as much as the Potential stat %.
The higher the skillâs level and Proficiency are, the longer its lasting time becomes.
The Exploding Potential skill was an enhancing skill about Potential.
It made the petâs stats increase even more when its Potential was higher. It could be used only on
For example, when using the Exploding Potential skill on a pet that had 100 Potential, all stats
Ly had about 80 Potential now, so with the Exploding Potential skill, he could have double the battle
âOh, when did it become Lv. 1? Its lasting time is 20 seconds longer now.â
The current lasting time of Exploding Potential was 1 minute and 20 seconds.
It was a very short time, but Ian could use that time well to hunt very efficiently.
Moreover, with the bow Ian had gotten as the reward from the Arena, he could decrease the skillâs
cooldown time, so he could use it about once every ten minutes.
âAnyway, the Possession skill is certainly inefficient for my style of hunting. Still, I was glad to get itâŚâ
The second special class skill Ian got with Exploding Potential was the Possession skill.
He could be possessed by one of the pets he could summon. He could get 30% of the stats of the
pet. It was the most basic skill of ordinary Summoners, who didnât have a hidden class, started with.
When Ian first got the skill, he tried using it on Bukbuk and Big Guy in turn to hunt.
But after hunting like that for half a day, he concluded that it would be more efficient not to use it on
âBukbuk is now Lv. 61, Ly is Lv. 63⌠and Big Guy is Lv. 64.â
Ian felt he needed to go to a different hunting ground.
He had been hunting at the Ryuran Valley where monsters of Lv. 65~68 lived.
That wasnât a very easy hunting ground, but Ian always preferred the most difficult hunting grounds
where he could hunt, so it was natural for him to want to move.
âHmm⌠where should I go?â
Ian then recalled a place.
âOh, should I go to the Forcal Mountains now?â
Forcal was a huge mountain range on the east side of the South Continent.
Monsters that lived there were known to be about Lv. 70~75.
That was the exact difficulty level Ian wanted now.
Plus, there was a special reason for Ian to go there.
âI will reach Lv. 70 at the Forcal Mountains and then head straight to the Magic Tower of Dimensions.
It was to complete the B rank quest he had received from Orkley, the legendary Dragon Tamer.
If he reached the level needed to do a B rank quest at the Forcal Mountains and moved east to do the
quest, he would not be wasting any time.
Even if he needed to drop by somewhere else on the way, he could get the Returning Magic Scroll of
the village near Forcal Mountains before he hunted there.
Ian smiled pleasantly and called Ly.
âLy, letâs go to Forcal!â
Ian got on Lyâs back and started to move.
âI think this every time I ride on Ly recently, but it is really comfortable.â
Ian had gotten better at riding Ly while Ly had also improved at moving with Ian on its back. Ian was
satisfied with the comfortable ride.
Ian logged out to eat lunch. He was rummaging through his kitchen.
âWhat? Am I out of corn flakes?!â
It was something he didnât see coming. Therefore, he was surprised.
âUh⌠then, are there any chips left or somethingâŚâ
He spent 5 minutes on searching his small studio, but there wasnât even a piece of bread.
âI am even out of ramenâŚâ
Eventually, Ian grabbed his wallet and started to walk.
But then, his foot touched something.
It was a plastic bag from the last time he had gone grocery shopping.
Next, Ian saw the phone number of the market written on the bag.
There was a blue logo that read â24-hour delivery serviceâ right next to the phone number!
âOh, why havenât I thought of this earlier? I am so stupid!â
âI have been going to the supermarket by myself to buy groceriesâŚâ
He called the supermarket and ordered the groceries he needed. Then, he looked at his capsule.
However, he soon shook his head.
âHmmâŚ. my groceries will be here in 30 minutes, I cannot log in now⌠should I search for some
Ian sat in front of his computer. He went to the official community of Kailan and visited the New
It was a page that had information about new monsters that were added with the grand update. It had
been weeks since the update happened, but information about new monsters kept coming up on the
It was because LBsoft, the company that made Kailan, never released any information about new
All information about Kailan was made by users sharing them.
âIs there any new monster found at the Forcal Mountains?â
What Ian was looking for was information about monsters in the Forcal Mountains where he was
He knew a lot about the pre-existing monsters, but if there were new monsters, it would be better to
The clicking sound of Ianâs mouse echoed in his quiet room.
âOh, thereâs no new monster found at Forcal yet. There must be some, itâs just that no one has found
Ian searched the word âForcalâ for more than 10 minutes, but he was disappointed.
However, when he was about to leave the page, a new post came up.
Its title was written in a thick, bold font.
[Underground Dungeon of the Scorching Land] [New Monster Lava Witch]
It immediately drew Ianâs attention.
He had never heard of the Lava Witch and the Scorching Land was right next to the Forcal
Ian didnât hesitate to click on the article.
Then, information about the Lava Witch came up on the monitor.
Attack Force: ???~??? (Presumed to be about 400)
Defense Force: ???~??? (Presumed to be about 200)
Intelligence: ???~??? (Presumed to be 1000~1100)
Constantly inflict Fire damage in a wide-range (Presumed to be about 3 square meters)
It sets enemies on Burn mode with a certain probability. It is presumed that the damage gets bigger
when the effect is doubled.
The information was in the format of the stat page.
Most of it was ???, but it was only natural.
It was impossible to know the exact stats of a monster unless you capture it and check its information
Nevertheless, Ian was interested enough.
âIts Unique Ability is a wide-range attack!â
Ordinary users visited the New Monsters page to find out ways to fight monsters they had never faced
However, Summoners like Ian also came to get info about pets they would capture and use in battles.
This Lava Witch was a wide-range damage giver, therefore, Ian really wanted it.
Ian read about the Lava Witch while scrolling down.
On the bottom, there was a screenshot of the monster that the writer of the post took.
âOh, I like its looks as well!â
The Lava Witch was something like âa ghost that flowed with lavaâ.
It only had an upper body made of lava that floated with flames wrapped around it, which made it look
âThe skill of this video must be the Range of the Flame.â
Ian watched the Lava Witch use the skill.
He then looked at the user who was hit by it and lost Health.
âCounting the fact that it is a wide-range attack, it inflicts quite a lot of damage.â
The post ended with a comment from the writer.

â That was all I could find out about the Lava Witch as a Knight. To know the exact detailed stats, a
Summoner must capture it and check its information! I donât think there is already a Summoner who
can capture the Lava Witch⌠but I would love to hear someone succeeding soon.
I like my information being updated, but the Lava Witch I saw was so cool. I really wish to see a
Summoner use the Lava Witch in battle.
Ian read the comment and grinned.
âHaha, I will capture and use it.â
Ian watched the video a couple of times. It was an attractive monster.
The bad news was that it was of the Rare rank.
Of course, Rare rank was not bad.
Ian had been capturing Regular rank pets only and making them evolve, so he, of course, wanted to
capture a Rare rank pet and make it evolve.
âHow long would it take for me to capture a Rare rank monster that can evolve?â
Evolution Possible monsters were hard to find, even among Regular monsters that filled the fields.
Additionally, Rare rank monsters were rare. They seldom appeared in fields.
âUhh⌠I feel tormented.â
If it hadnât been about the bet, he wouldnât have minded wasting a few days.
The Lava Witch seemed to be worth it.
âBut I would be able to gain levels much faster if I could capture itâŚâ
Ian scrolled down and saw many comments.
More than half of them were written by Summoners.
Pts1120: Wow⌠the Lava Witch is so cool. I want to capture it and use itâŚ
KimKundal: But the reality is that we are only going to use Asiatic Black Bears.
ParkTree: KimKundal, whatâs wrong with the Asiatic Black Bear? My Winnie is really strongâŚ
Legendary_Mage: Ha! if Summoners could capture the Lava Witch and fight, Sorcerers who use Fire
Magic would lose their jobs. Summoner is such an unfair class! It needs to be weakened!
Jjang123: Mage, the Summoner is not unfair⌠and if it were to be weakened, it would kill the
Summoners twice. Summonerâs level-up speed is way too slow and having many pets doesnât mean
they can be controlled. Summoners get killed often because they concentrate on controlling their pets
and fail to care about their own character.
1004yj1: jjang123, that is not true anymore. The Summoner is really hot now. Havenât you seen this
Rookiesâ League? The Summoner was the first to reach Lv. 50 among the new classes and the
Summoner Ian really did great at the Arena.
Assassinbungbung: But he was killed instantly by Limlong at the finals. The Assassin is the best!
1004yji: Ha⌠Bungbung, it was because the Summoner is weak against Assassins. Frankly, I think
Ian would beat Limlong in term of skills.
Ian felt both pride and anger.
âHaaaa⌠I should have won against that Limlong or Bingbong⌠haâŚâ
He took a post-it, wrote a few important pieces of information about the Lava Witch and attached it on
âI will try to capture the Lava Witch when I am at about Lv. 80.â
He wanted to go immediately, but his level was too low to do that. Besides, Big Guy would receive
double the damage from Fire type attacks, so it would be a hard fight.
He then added another post-it with a determined spirit.
â I will beat you next time, Limlong.
Ian was satisfied now. He then turned off his computer.
âGood, good. It was even more useful than gaining a level.â
Ianâs food arrived just in time.
He felt good at using the 20 minutes wisely, instead of wasting them as he almost planned to.
