"System, consume the experience points I got from the Netherels"

He rubbed his hands together and entered the system. He was excited to reach the next levels and face stronger enemies.

[The host has killed 20 Body Refining stage Netherels, 30 Body Strengthening stage Netherels, and 25 Foundation Stage Netherels]

[Ding! The host has received 100,000 Experience points for Killing 20 Body Refining stage Netherels]

[Ding! The host has received 210,000 Experience points for Killing 30 Body Strengthening stage Netherels]

[Ding! The host has received 75,000 Experience points for Killing 25 Foundation stage Netherels]

"385000 Experience points, not bad, not bad at all" He was pleased to see the amount of Experience he got after slaughtering all those stinking Netherels. Even though the night with Sadie was a great bonus, it didn't make him happy as the Experience points which would make him reach the next levels without months of cultivation.

He was not done yet as he retrieved the cores he collected from the Netherels. The fist-sized cores were extremely fragile and some of them shattered when they hit the ground. In the system store, he had 10 Bod Refining Netherel cores,18 Body Strengthening Netherel cores, and 15 Formation stage Netherel cores.

[Does the Host wish to activate the Energy devourer and consume the cores?]

[The host would get 1000-2000 Experience per one Formation Stage Core]

[The host would get 3000-4000 Experience per one Body Refining Stage Core]

[The host would get 4000-6000 Experience per one Body Strengthening Stage Core]

The system informed him of the number of Experience points he would get by consuming the cores using the Energy Devourer.

"Leave the Formation stage cores and consume the others' ' the system soon activated the Energy Devourer and one by one, the Netherel cores disappeared from the system storage.

[Experience points converted 30,000] when all the Body Refining stage cores disappeared, the system notified him and continued to consume the rest of the cores.

[Experience points converted 90,000]

"120,000 huh? I feel like I should have gotten more from them"

[The Experience points received from the cores vary depending on the quality of the core host. Next time, consider going after the head rather than fighting the cannon folders] the system sounded like it was bothered by Michael's decision not to go after the Sorcerer.

"I know what I'm doing, System. The Sorcerer must have been a Core formation cultivator to get pursued by Alex and Celina. If I went into the forest chasing the Sorcerer, not only I would have lost all these Experience points and Badass points, I may have also ended up in neck-deep trouble. No offense to you system but I don't want to depend on you too much"

[Still, the host should have taken a risk]

"Agree to disagree" he didn't want to keep arguing with the system and explain everything on his mind. He very well knew that the system wants him to take risks because risks may require him to spend more badass points.

"What are we waiting for? Let's begin the breakthrough process"

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up. The current stage is Body Refining stage Level 8]

The surge of power inside his body warmed his body. He could feel that his strength had increased by at least two times than before. Coupled with his own strength and the Responsive shield, he could defeat a Body Strengthening stage level 7 and fight without sustaining major injuries with a level 8 cultivator.

After killing all those Netherels, he had already made enormous progress in his cultivation level. Moreover, his mastery of swords went from 70% to 78%.

However what made him really excited was the number of badass points, 18000 Badass points. After earning a few more thousands of Badass points he could finally settle the debt of 22,000 Badass points he got from the system and be debt-free.

Regarding gold coins, he earned nearly 300,000 gold coins by selling the Healing potions to the injured disciples. Many disciples also bought more than they needed for future use.

Michael recalled clearly how Gaya's evil mind had contributed significantly to his wealth. Among the 75 killings, Gaya killed almost 25 Netherels and injured many more using her new weapon, the bow of Legolas. She was turning into a valuable asset and a friend to him. He couldn't wait to see what she can do after he heals her and restore her cultivation level. At that point, he would have a Core Formation level bodyguard.

"Okay, let's do some shopping" He opened the system's store with another badass costume in his mind. The system automatically filtered everything and showed only the items that he could afford. In front of his eyes, there were many unique costumes as well as iconic costumes from the movies and video games. He saw Squall Leonhart's costume, the Robin costume from the 80s, and many more, but none of them wowed him like the one particular costume that's floating before him. It was none other than the Matrix 1999 movie costume. The current one in his storage was the Neo costume of Matrix reloaded, and the one in front of him was the Neo costume from the first installment of the Matrix series.

He had a weak spot for cool costumes and without bitching at the system, he bought the complete costume for 1000 Badass points. Yet, he was not done with shopping as he still had some tweaks to do to the costume.

"System, I need back-mounted dual sword sheath, black of course"

Luckily the sword sheaths he asked for only cost him 200 badass points and it fitted perfectly with his new costume. He then removed gun holsters on the trouser and the sunglasses because he realized he would look weird with sunglasses in this world. But he didn't completely rule out wearing sunglasses.

"This is going to make me look like such a badass" with wasting no time, he put on his new clothes and exited the system.

"Awesome!" Although the system showed him how he would look, seeing himself in the mirror still gave him goosebumps and feasted his narcissistic personality. Especially the X-shaped swords on his back made him look more badass. He realized it's a good thing that Gaya took the bow because a quiver on his back would have messed up his style and ruined the look.

Sling!

The two swords let out a little slinging sound when he unsheathed them from the back. If he didn't reach 78% mastery with swords, he would have cut the back of his neck or his hair when unsheathing. It was considerably difficult to unsheathe the swords from the back compared to unsheathing from the waist holder, but one couldn't deny that it looks badass to unsheathe from the back.

"I'm still missing something" Since he would always take a long time before the mirror, he realized that something's missing and finally found the problem.

"System, how much is tactical fingerless gloves?"

[Really?!]

[300 Badass points]

For a moment, even the system lost it's cool seeing him take this long to get ready. He would always get yelled at by Gaya for taking a long time before the mirror, and now he even made the system mad. However, the system quickly returned to its usual self and stated the price before he changed his mind about buying the gloves.

The system presented him with the black tactical fingerless gloves as he put them on to finish his look.

"Now I'm ready to attend this auction"

Since he already sent Daniel to assist Gloria in rebuilding the Lucky cat tavern, he left Ricky in charge of the Majestic while he and Gaya are away. If someone tried to mess with his business, then it was a job for Lucifer to take care of.
