"I should've known, he could at any ti change his ability if the situation ever got this bad. I was too careless," urig began to get enraged.
Before he made any more reckless decisions, urig halted.
"Hold on, I can still use my ability to find his location, I was worried for nothing," urig thought to himself.
"Activate ability: Tracker" said urig as he began to focus.
Instantly, urig fell to his knees. His breathing was now aggressive as if he was hanging on for dear life.
"I guess the drawback is catching up with ," urig said to himself.
Behind him, two people stood up and seeing the opportunity, stabbed Muerig in his shoulders before kicking him to the ground.
"That's what you get for trying to assassinate our master," one of the n behind urig said.
The blades disintegrated as expected but they had already done their damage.
"If only I hadn't wasted so much of my stamina, I could have stopped the blades with my sheer defence," urig said.
He knew that draining an imnse amount of his stamina would also jeopardize his other stats but he was fine with that. urig didn't expect things to go so wrong.
"I shouldn't have underestimated soone who made Yuki concerned," urig gritted his teeth.
Now limping, urig began to slowly leave the bar. There was no point in chasing after his target anymore. If he were to activate his ability again, he would just end up wasting stamina. They probably had created a large between urig and themselves. It was useless to go after them.
As urig got down the stairs, he noticed that everyone was quiet and on edge. One of the people in the back stood up as if issuing a challenge to urig.
urig didn't care anymore. He was once human, at least in his made up mory. He wanted to feel sympathy towards others. He didn't want to kill anyone. urig believed that life was sacred and that it should be protected. However, in that mont, urig forgot all of that.
The man from the back ca forward and was now facing the limping urig in the middle of the bar. Everyone watched with suspense.
"Even if he's a strong monster, he has been weakened. The monster can be defeated!" the people in the crowd believed.
The man facing urig was buff and looked to be in his early 20s. He was wearing a navy turtleneck and black jeans.
"Go back to where you ca from!" the man in front of urig yelled as he threw a punch.
Before the attack could make contact, the man froze in place. The exhausted urig had managed to place his palm on his shoulder. urig had managed to control his disintegrating ability and stopped himself from becoming a murderer. However, it didn't stop the side effects it carried.
The man began to sweat profusely. It was as if he was breathing from a string sized tube. His heart began to beat at trendous speeds. His head began to get heavy until he could only see back and hear a beeping sound. Finally the man fell face first into the floor.
Everyone sat silent as this event took place before urig exited the bar and went on to et Yuki at their rendezvous point.
As urig continued on his journey to the entrance/exit gate of the kingdom, he grew ever more exhausted. Before long, he was unable to control his presence. A death inducing aura began to surround him, anyone who tried to get close to him would instantly stop where they were standing or pass-out.
Seeing a monster within the kingdom made the civilians uneasy. Those who were brave enough to challenge him passed out before they could get close enough to him. Even bystanders had to force themselves to stop from puking. The nacing aura which urig was emanating was unheard of.
"What happened to you?" Yuki asked.
urig was shocked to hear his friend's voice. He hadn't realized that his body had gone into auto pilot and managed to get him to the place which he and Yuki were supposed to et.
"Are you really even concerned for or did you just say that so you could later ask about the details of the mission?" urig asked in an irritated tone.
"You know too well," Yuki smiled.
"I'm kidding, while I am intrigued at what would cause this much damage to you. Right now, I need to focus on healing you," Yuki suddenly turned serious.
This was unexpected as urig had thought that Yuki only saw him as a weapon and not as a friend. Even though he tried to tell himself that Yuki and him were friends, deep down he believed that a murder could never have enough emotions to comprehend the concept of friendship.

Yuki pulled out a full status recovery potion and handed it to urig.
"Drink up," Yuki smiled once again.
urig took off the rubber lid that was covering the capsule and drank the li coloured liquid inside. urig instantly felt better and managed to fix his posture.
"I thought you used up the last of your potions in the last stage of the dungeon," said urig.
"I did, I just restocked on supplies after I escaped. It would save ti since you were busy dealing with the user of 'INFINITE HOTEL'," Yuki replied.
urig was satisfied with the answer.
"So where do we go now?" urig asked.
"To be perfectly honest, I haven't decided yet."
"I'm pretty sure the filter has already been applied by now, it's been about 3 months since the new world began," Yuki responded.
"What do you an 'filter'," urig was confused by what Yuki had said.
"I ant that all the people who aren't willing to sacrifice everything to reach level 100 are gone."
"It only takes about this long for people to get bored of sothing new. The human mind always yearns for what it doesn't have. As such, they'll get bored of the concept of getting stronger and give up on it, only a handful of people will have the will power to continue this journey," Yuki replied.
"Even then, I still have the advantage since I have more knowledge on this world than anyone else. More and more people will begin to get filtered out, it's gonna be a survival of the fittest," Yuki continued.
