BXBX NOVEL Chapter 11 - Level 2
"This is my master\'s power known as INFINITE HOTEL"
Yuki was astonished by what he was hearing. It was such a genius strategy. Setting up an infinite source for money was by far the smartest thing anyone could\'ve done. The previous world had been ruled by money so it wouldn\'t be unreasonable to assume that history would repeat itself in their new world. Yuki concluded that whoever set up this ability didn\'t plan on changing it anytime soon. This meant that as soon as that person\'s identity was uncovered, it would be a wise decision to kill them as fast as possible. Someone who had the money to hire other strong players as mercenaries could prove to be a large threat.
After Yuki finished his conversation with the owner, he went upstairs to come up with a plan to strategically kill off every member of the seven as well as the user of "INFINITE HOTEL".
When he entered his room, he was welcomed to the blandest room in all of existence. It was just a small rectangular room with 1 bed. There was nothing special about it. It made sense as to why it was so cheap. Yuki figured that it was probably because of the concept of this ability. It made him wonder if each room would look like a large castle once the user reaches level 100. He also wondered how much the rent would cost and if you could pick what type of room you wanted. There were so many possibilities that could be explored.
After hours of thinking, Yuki finally came to the perfect plan. Within 13 days, he would kill every single one of the 7 as well as the master of "INFINITE HOTEL". Once he had everything planned out, he went to sleep to get some rest.
The next day he was awoken by the screaming of the seven. It looked to be the buff guy of the group. All Yuki saw him as was a shadow, there was no need for him to waste his eyes gazing at a lowly human. After all, he was the master of the universe.
Yuki got ready to take the seven to the forest where his clones had been farming exp for him. He showed them the way to kill the monsters in the forest and how to navigate their way through the terrain.
For the next twelve days, the crew constantly killed as many monsters as they could. Each day felt like a living hell for them. At noon of the 13th day, Yuki was confronted by one of the seven. It was a smaller shadow that looked like it could not harm a fly.
"Hey, Yuki, I need help with something. Can you come here for a second?" asked the smaller shadow.
Reluctantly Yuki decided to follow it. They began walking and traveled for what seemed like hours. Once they were isolated, the shadow began to speak again.
"Hey, I\'ve been wondering, could you show me how much exp you have right now?"
Yuki was confused as to why they need to be alone if that was all that was required of him was. Nevertheless, he showed his profile.
[Open stats]
A screen popped up in front of Yuki.
Player Name: Yuki Kaito
Level: 1 [8900 / 10000 exp]
"Oh wow, you\'re so close to leveling up, you\'re so cool Yuki," the shadow continued.
"Well, it would only be fair if I told you what my ability is since you showed me your profile."
"My ability is called \'AREA INFORMATION\', just like its name says, it gathers information on an area I want, however, it has one drawback. That being, I have to explore 70% of an area to learn everything about it."
"During these past two weeks, I\'ve been trying to explore as much of this forest as possible and I\'ve learned something. In this forest, you can only gain 10,000 exp every two weeks. That\'s exactly enough for one player to level up and enough time for them to reset their ability if they set it up on the day of the spawn of the monsters."
"Each one of us seven has over 1000 exp which of we round down get 7000 exp in total. That means if killing monsters was the only way you gained exp, you would only have a maximum of 3000 exp."
"Very odd don\'t you think Yuki? So how did you do it?"
Yuki couldn\'t believe that he was found out. This was the end for him, or so he thought.
[Timer requirement has been met]
[Ability: resettable]
This message brought a smile to Yuki\'s face. Now, he was the one with the upper hand.
"I have to congratulate you. I never thought it would take such a short amount of time for me to be exposed," Yuki said.
As he said those words, his clones came to his aid.
"So that\'s how you did it! You made clones of yourself and made them gain exp for you in other forests while you kept us here so we couldn\'t advance in this world as fast as you!" the member of seven continued.
Yuki knew that this was a lie, but he decided to play along.
"That\'s exactly right!"
The member of seven pulled out a knife from its pocket and began charging as Yuki. They exchanged a few blows before one of Yuki\'s clones was stabbed and killed. Before any more damage could be dealt to him, Yuki quickly disarmed the member of seven and held it to the ground using his clone.
"Well this is the end, farewell," Yuki said as he prepared to stab the member of the seven.
"Stop right there!"
Someone had called out to Yuki in the distance. When he looked back he saw the rest of the seven. He couldn\'t let them stop him. Before they could get any closer, he stabbed the member of the seven he already had on the ground.
