NOVEL NEXT Chapter 24: Chapter 24 - Reality is cruel
After collecting the dead bodies of those Warriors, David advances from that place. Even though he somehow calms down, if you look at his hand, you can see he is still shaking. Naturally, David needed some more time to fully calm down.
Some time ago, he just came to this place to hunt those level 11 Monsters. Very carefully he searched for a group of monsters and had already found one. So David was fighting that group of monsters and had already killed almost everyone, but suddenly he heard that painful cry.
Instantly, he uses the Blink technique to get away from his previous place, and he directly ignores the monster behind him. By hearing that painful cry, anybody can tell the person is in serious danger.
Even though he is not a hero or anything like that, if someone near him faces this kind of danger, naturally he will help that person. Well, at the same time, there is a possibility this is some kind of trap to attract nearby warriors.
David decided to think about those later. Before anything, he wanted to reach the place to see what was happening. At this time, he also hopes that if a group of Warriors is really fighting a group of monsters, then at least they stay alive.
Unfortunately, the moment he came to that place he placed something that almost made him freeze. In front of him, you can see those Orc monsters. But David is not surprised about those monsters. He is surprised because he can see all the heads of those Warriors present in the hands of those Monsters.
Those monsters even play with those heads. It looks like they are even playing with those heads. Almost for a second, David lost himself in anger. Fortunately, he calmed down. At this time, he finally notices one of them is still alive. So, wasting no time, he attacks those monsters.
Unfortunately, all those Warriors died at the hands of those monsters. Naturally, David should not feel guilty, but he doesn't know why, a question keeps appearing in his mind.
'What would happen if I got there faster?'
Because of this question, he is feeling guilty. Even though he would not be able to save those other warriors, at least he would be able to save that one Warrior. Unfortunately, in the end, he was unable to protect anyone.
David decided to go back to his hiding place. For today, he did not have any interest in fighting those monsters. He needed some time to adjust his mentality. Naturally, all of this happened pretty quickly, which did not even give him the time to adjust himself.
Sometime later,
David is currently meditating. This is the best choice for him. At least it will help him to calm down. Losing your life inside the danger zone is not a rare thing. Every day many people will lose their lives, but still, you can see those many people present inside the danger zone.
Many people came there to increase their fighting experience, many people came there to search for rare resources, many people came there to finish the mission that they got from their Guild or the warrior association.
In one word, you will find many people with many different goals present inside the danger zone. Naturally, everyone knew the danger of the danger zone, but everyone still went into the danger zone. Not just strong Warriors but even weak people also came inside the danger zone.
You should realize one thing: nothing is free in this world. Also, everybody respects strong warriors and weak humans are like ants to them. In this kind of situation, everybody naturally hopes to become strong enough to be recognized by everyone. Everyone wanted to increase their power to live a happy life.
Unfortunately, the reality is very cruel. Not everyone can survive inside the danger zone. Not everyone is lucky enough to meet a group of warriors or anyone who can save them. Also, most of the time, those Warriors will ignore those other Warriors who are in danger.
David naturally knows about all of this. He also even faces this kind of situation. Previously he even went inside the danger zone to collect some resources. At that time, he also finds the place where he can find those Pre-mortal grade monsters.
At that time, he faced that kind of danger all the time, but he did not receive help from any other people. Even if a group of Warriors passes through him, none of them help him. So David is naturally aware of the truth of this world.
___________________________
2 hours later, after that incident, inside a cave, David finally opened his eyes. Finally, you can say he calmed down. Finally, his mentality adjusted to this situation. After going outside the danger zone, he would contact the family members of those warriors and give them the dead body.
David had already decided that he would stay inside the danger zone for one more day and after that he would go outside the danger zone. It had already been 3 days since he was inside the danger zone. Naturally, inside the danger zone he cannot let down his guard even for a second.
Naturally, he cannot focus on his game. Finally, after killing those level 11 Monsters, he can already see that he has already collected 10 life energy. Well, tomorrow he will kill as many monsters as he can to collect more life energy.
Well, naturally, he did not want to get that much carelessness in the game, so he would not require more life energy than that to play the game. But you should not forget that he also needed to take out those loot from the game. To do this, he also needed to use life energy. Because of this, he wanted to gather as much life energy as he could.

'After going outside, I needed to contact the warrior association and tell them what happened inside that danger zone. With the help of the Warrior Association, I would be able to get to know the location of those warriors' families. I hope with this at least their souls can rest in peace.
On the other hand, I should also call mom and dad. I hope they did not take any kind of dangerous mission. I don't want them to risk their lives.'
David thought all of this while observing the entrance where he is present right now. As you know, he did not have any observation techniques, so he would not be able to kill anyone until that person did not get close to him. There could be a chance that monsters will attack him. Because of this, he decided to watch over that place.

The next day,
After resting yesterday, David's mind already became clear, and he could fully focus on killing those monsters. From the moment everything around him became visible, he decided to haunt him. Today will be the last day he will be present there.
'I also needed to stay careful about those level 12 Monsters. Even though not all of them are dangerous, I really did not want any of those monsters to reach the limit of level 12.'
David already thought not to advance that much and stayed around that area to kill level 11 Monsters. Previously in the game because of curiosity, he decided to search for a more powerful monster and, in the end, he died in the hand of a level 12 monster. One thing David realized was that monsters most likely reached the limit of level 12 or close to reaching the limit.
This is the reason that he did not want to advance that much to attract the attention of those level 12 Monsters. Even though for each of those Monsters, they have their specific boundaries, and most of the time they will not leave their boundaries, you cannot guarantee that while you are in the territory of those level 11 Monsters, you will not get attacked by a level 12 monster.
Sometime later,
David slowly approaches a group of rabbit monsters. These are not your normal rabbits as they are very fast, and they also have powerful jumping techniques. All those monsters also have weapons in their hands. Naturally, it is a big mystery to everyone how monsters can get a weapon. Until now, nobody has been able to find out anything.
There could be a chance that when other Warriors die inside the danger zone, The Monster will take the weapons of those Warriors.
David did not think about this and just fully focused on those monsters. Fortunately, after playing the game, he already had an idea about the observation range of those monsters. Those rabbit monsters also have strong hearing ability. They almost have a 200 m observation range.
Naturally, if David wanted to surprise attack those Monsters, then his attack needed to be first, and he needed to stay out of the observation range of those Monsters.
