Reaper's Resurgence - Book 1 - Chapter 81 - New Leaderboards (Patreon)

Even after I free the people from their bindings, they still look confused. They aren’t even showing any of the fear from before.

“So… do you?” I repeat while tilting my head slightly and folding my arms under my chest.

That seems to snap them out of it as the guy at the front of the group – a group that is consistent of four girls and a guy – says, “U-uh, y-yes.”

A wide smile crosses my face as I straighten up and exclaim, “Great! Now would you mind telling me where it is?”

They all share a look between each other before the same guy from before – someone who seems to be in his mid-twenties with brown hair and brown eyes – answers, “Well, we don’t know exactly where the leader is, but we know where they’re most likely at. It’s the same place the…” he pauses with a glance towards the dead wendigos, “…wendigos,” he turns back to me, “were bringing us.”

Oh?

I turn around to looking the direction they were heading, where I find a rather large mountain. The thing didn’t really stand out that much, but when I focus on it, it does look a bit larger than most of the other mountains. And there seems to be thicker snow fall around it too.

“The large mountain?” I ask while turning back to face the guy and the shivering girls. Then I glance to the side where I find a hurriedly running Shawn making his way over here, only to ignore him and focus on the guy again.

He nods his head and says, “Yeah.”

“Cool,” I tell him with a nod in return before turning around and beginning to walk towards the mountain in question. And after a few steps, I call out a quick, “See you later!” and begin teleporting away.

Because I don’t deal with gratitude well.

If I had to guess, their confusion was probably due to me helping them. Since they should already know what I look like due to the System broadcasting my appearance all over, so they might’ve been like Shawn in assuming I was some murderer killing people for kicks.

Actually, speaking of that, I open the leaderboards for the first time since the Tutorial ended. And just like before the Reset, the leaderboards has been changed from the Tutorial points to the highest level instead.

[Dimensional Champion Leaderboard]

[#1 Isabella d'Aragon – Level 100]

[#2 Alexia Knight – Level 100]

[#3 Alexander Frost – Level 100]

[#4 Lucas Nightshade – Level 100]

[#5 Leif Eriksson – Level 100]

[#6 Aurora Frost – Level 100]

[#7 Leonidas Silver – Level 100]

[#8 Damien Black – Level 100]

[#9 Ignivara – Level 100]

[#10 Artorius del Argon – Level 100]

Yeah, thought so. From my understanding, at least based on the pre-Reset leaderboards, the leaderboards now should be based on two things. Someone’s level, and when they reached that level.

And I was apparently not the first person to reach level 100. The Ancestral Dragon was the first.

I’m a little surprised the Ruler of the Abyss made it to level 100 faster than the Hound though. But then again, the Ruler is a Class S species just like me and the Ancestral Dragon. Meanwhile the Hound should only be human.

The mere fact that he’s reached level 100 at around the same time as us is already very impressive considering that he’s only a Class B species.

Assuming he didn’t change his species like Astrid did. Although even if he did then he still would’ve been a Class B species throughout the Tutorial.

I look over the rest of the top ten as I begin running instead of teleporting towards the mountain, but over the top ten are pretty much the same people except for two names.

And I can’t help but feel shivers run down my spine at the sight of the new names to replace them.

Ignivara, otherwise known as the Ancient Terror. A hydra that is known for going on rampages and destroying entire continents when he’s upset.

And Artorius del Argon, otherwise known as the Primeval Fiend. The leader of all the fiends and the ruler of the planet formerly known as Hell. An archfiend. Not to mention someone known for massacring the populations of entire planets just to spread his fiends further through the universe.

Although now that he’s alone, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone goes and attempts to kill the dude.

But he’s still a Class S species, and so is the Ancient Terror. Likely why they both got to level 100 faster than whoever it was that they knocked down.

I give a short pity nod for whoever it was that was knocked off the leaderboards. Then I up my speed and begin walking even faster.

Because I really need to get to the top of the leaderboards here. After all, if I got a unique skill for reaching #1 on the Tutorial leaderboards, I would be surprised if there wasn’t something similar for the Dimensional Champion Leaderboards.

And that means finding and killing this level capped monster as fast as I can.

At least the current #1 is also a Class S species, so she probably has just as difficult a set of requirements as I do. I’m more worried about Lucas shooting ahead just because his requirements are easier.

Which serves as more motivation to clear these objectives quickly.

I blink in realization before slowing down.

Wait a second, one of them is to raise a skill to Tier 2. And my closest skill to Tier 2 is…

Without any hesitation, I begin teleporting towards the mountain again instead of running. Just to train the skill.

This might burn a bit of soul, but it’ll be the fastest skill to bring to Tier 2. So it’ll be worth it.

Not to mention that, aside from the fact that it would clear a second requirement from my list, it’ll also significantly increase how far I can teleport. A very nice benefit.

Very nice indeed.
