“Blindness! Now it's time, Papi, Pepi, Popi, Popo!”
Nina's sister shouted excitedly coordinating her manager with her horned bunnies which she named almost similar to the names of the Korean anime figures of the twin brothers and sisters I had seen at the midnight show.
“Puaak! A pest! Puaak!”
Not inferior to Kak Nina, Kak Raia has developed much more rapidly. If I may make a rough prediction, then, maybe now Raia has been much stronger than the last time I fought Kak Inggar first even though the level is much lower than the level of Kak Inggar at that time.
You guys wonder where we are right now?
We are still as usual, right now, forced to be at the northern border of the Lalania Imperial capital against the lower middle-level zombies who managed to escape the prowess of the high-level veteran adventurers in the north on the orders of the Emperor Brother.
For some reason, the zombie monsters have become more frequent these days. Not only in the border area with the land of death, even in the area near the northern mountains, where the demon nation usually appears, but now also becomes a place for the emergence of the zombies.
But in spite of all that, out of the hundred ugliness of the system, there is at least one that I am grateful for. Thanks to the level restrictions imposed by the system in each area, at least the mid to upper level zombie monsters would be held back by the invisible barrier in the north.
Therefore, Kak Nina and Kak Raia only need to face the lower middle level zombie monsters. Unlike living monsters, zombie monsters only have half their abilities remaining so that their strength is right for the opponent to fight Kak Nina and Kak Raia who are still novice veterans.
But this is not good if it continues like this.
As powerful as any zombie monster we encounter, it will only increase our experience without the system recognizing it as the highest level of monster we are facing so we simply cannot use it to level up.
It was the same when I defeated the level 49 basilisk that had just removed his skin or when I was on an assassination mission from the Lalania Empire where I killed the leader of a 50th level criminal organization, it would not raise my level at all even if I defeated a higher level opponent than me.
The system simply does not recognize the casualties of zombies, injured monsters, and especially fellow humans as a prerequisite for leveling up.
For the first and second, perhaps the reason for the system was because the monsters were not in their optimal state so their levels could not be measured as it would definitely be lower than they should look.
For the third reason, well to prevent fellow humans from killing each other maybe. However, I admit that the system, despite its cold attitude, has humanitarian empathy as well. For that, I salute the system once again.
But again I say that out of that one annoyance of mine, there are a hundred more to my frustration. In other words, there is more to the system than good.
Well, but because of that too, to date, the system still recognizes the level 40 winged golden elemental as the highest leveled monster I have ever defeated. As a result, the,

I am still stuck at level 41 even though my experience is full.
“Darling Count Luca Auralia!”
“Yo, Master Count Luca Auralia”
The noisy ones behind it were Lia and Aura, who were constantly mocking my name ever since they knew the humiliating title that the Emperor Sister had given me.
“What the hell happened to Auralia anyway? I am a Dewantara. Where can Brother Emperor get such a silly name?”
“Kony fuck, Luca. That's a good name.” Lia's soft whisper was right beside me. I could clearly feel her sweet breath.
“What's good?! That ugly name..”
“Soalya, there is a name I also tucked in the name of Luca. Luca Auralia's. Isn't that really cool? Isn't that right, Luca?” The cute girl also said while smiling sweetly at me. How could my heart not be tempted by his faith.
“Well, come to think of it as having a point too.”
“So what's the name good or bad?”
“Well it was, of course good.”
“Yes right? Hehehehehehe.” The sweet girl also laughed showing elegance in each of his attitudes.
“Then, Master, my name is also there dong. It is Auralia. Aren't you, Master?”
“Iya, yes. I have erratied my words. Count Luca Auralia is a cool name because it contains both of you names in it.”
“Hehehehehehe.”
“Hehehehehehe.”
I gave in to the temptation of the two female combos to let the two of them laugh happily at their victory in arguing.
Well, but honestly, I also just realized that the last name given by the Emperor Brother was actually a combination of names from Aura and Lia. But didn't the Emperor know neither Aura nor Lia? So is this an absolute coincidence?
“Luca, all the monsters are dealt with. Apparently, there are no more monsters that will be here any time soon.” It was Nina's sister who said.
“Now where are we going, Luca? I can't wait to swing my fist again. The zombie monsters were said warming was not enough.” Raia's sister remains in her spirit.
It seemed that their stamina could still be for a few more monster raids.
However, I also could not leave this area. The imperial army seems to be unprepared for a zombie attack if left alone. And if until something bad happens and the zombies manage to invade the capital, then dozens of indigenous lives will certainly be lost.
And also regarding the dregs drop items and mission rewards that are less tempting about the financial problems of the empire that is bad after massive reforms, adventurers are reluctant to do missions here.
Most are even more interested in the same mission at the border of the land of death because the landlord reward there is even much higher than the royal family reward here.
As a result, it was only me and my party that could be expected here. But Brother Emperor has promised me that at least in the near future, the finances of the empire will be stable again so that something like this will not happen again in the future after that.
I'm actually not feeling good for Kak Nina and Kak Raia because they've both been held back at the maximum level they can reach right now and defeating the zombies will no longer be able to raise their levels.
But regardless of the low reward or not being able to level up even once, I still cannot ignore this place.
Maybe for other players, the humans who lived here were just NPCs in their eyes. But they are humans!
However, how can the players who have been enjoying a peaceful life in the real world and watch us from behind the scenes as objects of pleasure, as well as the, making our misfortune exterminated by monsters as a chatter in spare time, will be able to understand that?
We natives make no difference, both humans like you.
But I also cannot blame those who know nothing. Well, from the beginning, we were the weak ones that became the target of the monsters.
No, maybe after this the zombie wave won't be as severe as in the previous days anymore so I can simply standardize Aura here. If there is anything, I can use my positional exchange skill with Aura. It seemed, there was no longer any reason for me or my party to remain in this place.
But just in case, we should choose a location that is quite close to this place as a leveling-up area Kak Nina and Kak Raia. There were many places for novice veterans to find lower-middle-level monsters in order to level-up.
Actually the problem is me. There are many places in this Astrovia Continent where we can find mid to high level monsters for me to be able to level-up. But there are very few places the system allows middle-class veterans like me to enter.
I know there are only five places. Among the five places, the closest was the herb hunting forest of the alchemists whose territory was partially located in the Lalania Empire. Maybe I can try to find an upper intermediate level monster there for leveling-up.
As an alternative if I can't find one there. The southeastern sea area of Indiya Kingdom is absolutely unable to at this time because it has not been the season of the appearance of the monsters. The forest area of the Melodian Kingdom.no, no, no, no, wherever it is as long as it is not that place. I hate the primordial behavior of his nobles.
Then what remains is the grassland region of Symphonia Kingdom. But I was a little traumatized by that place where I was swallowed up by the sky and stranded in the real world.
Then the only thing left was the forest area of the Doremi Kingdom. Well, but I hope that there won't be any trouble in the forest area of the Lalania Empire so I'm leveling up enough there until I reach the level of a high-level veteran.
But for now, let's forget all that.
Tomorrow it is time for Kak Nina and Kak Raia to show their progress in the school e-sport club registration qualification exam. So even though it's a bit fast, let's just finish the game for today.
