The [Hero of Slaughter] has been undergoing a very, very, very long marathon since being chosen.
She can only level up by constantly killing; if she kills less each day, she loses more experience points.
Even though she was slaughtering large numbers of demons every day, her level wouldn't increase rapidly.
The normal process for a hero to defeat demons involves defeating demons of a certain rank, leveling up, and gaining points, which then make the next defeat much easier. 4
Once you reach the level cap in your monster hunts, you'll immediately be eligible to hunt the next tier of demons. (Part 3)
[The Hero Who Slays] is different.
She has to fight countless demons of the same class to advance one level, and she only gets 1 point for each attribute.
This 1-point attribute means that she will still have to fight against demons of the same rank, and it is unknown how long she will have to fight before she has a chance to fight against demons of the next rank.
Moreover, the difference in experience points gained from defeating high-level demons and low-level demons is not significant for her.
The experience points gained from killing low-level demons in 24 hours would probably take at least 20 hours to kill high-level demons.
Just like her title, "Hero of Slaughter".
She had no choice but to kill.
There are no other shortcuts!
Whether she kills low-level demons or high-level demons, she can only rely on sheer numbers and time.
Coincidentally, the Chaotic Demons need to purge a large number of ordinary members of the demonic organizations.
With Elsa's attributes all around 60, wiping out demons below level eight is practically no problem at all.
If her rank were higher, a demon with high strength and agility would be able to break through her defenses, making her even more difficult to deal with.
It's not that she's difficult to handle; it's that since she's going to purge, she'll definitely purge a large group at once.
Demons are more forgiving of mistakes, and even low-level demons will actively fight to gain combat experience.
So she came here mainly to clean up the Baron City and some demon organizations below level eight.
The four hero squads in Earl Elwin's city have been focusing on gathering intelligence during this period.
[Dawn] contacted us a few days ago, saying that there might be an "assassination" mission soon, which put the heroes at ease a little.
If we're not worried about not having anything to attack, then we can focus on gathering intelligence.

Today, An Yi found time to leave alone again.
Nearly a week has passed since the experiment with the succubus was conducted.
It's time to check the results.
Chapter 76 Creatures: Succubus (★13) (4k)
The Holy Hero was born on the fourth day of the second week of the third month of the second year.
Over the course of the week, An Yi spent most of her time with the heroes, browsing books in a large library.
To make it easier to access information, the heroes moved from the original library to a larger library deeper in the city, a fact that has already been made known to [Dawn].
Although the heroes wanted to visit more libraries to read more information, even if they read day and night, their reading speed was not fast enough to frequently move between libraries.
The collection of books in one library is enough to keep you occupied for a long time.
Since the books are in the library's collection, there must be management and classification. They get sleepy just looking at books in a certain category every day. It's completely impossible for them to treat the library like a clothing store and wander around at will.
However, after a week of hard work, the heroes still achieved some success.
For example, humans once only knew that there were "orcs" besides humans.
The only known sprite so far has been completely hidden, and only a very small number of humans know of her existence.
However, the heroes of Earl Elwin's city were fully aware of the existence of the [Elves], a once-higher species.
In addition, they almost completely reconstructed an ancient, more expansive world with more intelligent races in the book—Zero—
Not only elves and orcs, but also dwarves, goblins, dragons, giants, centaurs, merfolk, lizardmen, and other intelligent creatures living in different regions.
An Yi already knew, and at the same time discovered...
Many demons bear the shadow of these intelligent races.
The unsuspecting heroes were somewhat pleased to discover that there were so many other races that were enemies of the demons.
With so many intelligent races, doesn't that mean they can unite with even more powerful races within the Demon Realm in the future?!
Unfortunately, after being "corrupted," most of these races have completely ceased to exist.
You can also find living elves and orcs, partly because elves have long lifespans.
On the other hand, it's because the Orcs are widely distributed and come in various levels.
The only orc who can truly be compared to the ancient orcs is probably Arya.
All that's left to do is guard the border and deal with some low-level demons.
The demons are slightly stronger, and the orcs that humans know of are no match for them at all.
Of course, it is indeed a little more useful than humans.
An Yi spent the entire week with the heroes, not just out of boredom, but because he was deliberately finding books that the heroes found "interesting" to read.
If adventurers were to plunge headlong into a large library, they might spend most of their time wandering aimlessly among the various books, unable to find the information they want in a short period of time.
For example, there are many storybooks among the demons, which may contain stories of powerful ancient demons that have no connection to the heroes at this stage.
Most importantly, this kind of demon race may be fictional, or it may have long since died of old age in some unknown corner.
Is it worthwhile for the heroes to spend their precious time reading about these demonic tales?
A little, but not much.
Just like when a foreigner gets a history book and an online novel, they will naturally read the former to learn more about the real information.
Did the hero come to the Demon Realm just to read a novel?
Of course, true history is the most useful for brave warriors!
An Yi's role is to use the answers to find the questions. He knows what intelligent races existed in ancient times, and he also knows what advanced demon races exist at present.
All the books that seemed "interesting" were brought out and piled up in the seminar room, enough to keep the adventurers occupied for who knows how long.
Thanks to An Yi, the heroes have now roughly constructed an ancient world in their minds.
Most importantly, it allows us to roughly know at what point in time what changes occurred in the world.
This is the history of the world.
Everything that humanity has never touched upon and is completely unable to learn about through any channel.
All that we know so far is still very basic. The heroes have only spent a week reading the book, not counting the time they spent wandering around when they got dizzy from reading.
Not every brave person has the patience to read books.
The most patient one right now is probably Lycorina.
She spent 90% of her life in ordinariness. Reading was not boring for her; on the contrary, she felt very happy to know everything that humans could not know before.

Besides, none of the heroes, including An Yi, could devote all their time to reading.
Everyone tacitly used "going out to investigate intelligence" as an excuse to go out for walks every day to relieve boredom.
If they could, they would like to spend the whole day immersed in books, gathering as much information as possible.
Can……
Most of the heroes are just low-educated people from the border areas. Even young people who have studied hard for more than ten years cannot devote all their time to studying. So how can they?
It's already quite good that you can concentrate on watching it while maintaining a balance between work and rest.
At least they did manage to construct a general framework in their minds, so it wasn't a complete waste of time.
But actually, Annie can also read all day long, just like Lycorina.
His constant "investigation" was actually a prelude to his actions.
He can make himself disappear for most of the day by simply saying "I'm going out for a walk".
Even today, he still says "I'll leave for a bit," then puts on the [Pseudo-Demon Lord Veil] and runs away.
They quickly left the chat group, but no one dared to think too much about it.
Because that's what he's been doing for most of the week.
Amidst the clamor of "What the heck? Let me see!" and "What the heck? Let me see!", An Yi's escape from Earl's City went unnoticed by any demons.
If An Yi were the only person on the street, the demons would probably notice him and retain some memory of him.
However, the streets were full of demons, and any [White Demon] who paid attention to him for even a moment would immediately have their attention drawn to other demons.
His presence blended into the ubiquitous demons, and the White Demon simply couldn't remember him.
Because of this, An Yi also learned something.
Even demons of slightly higher rank than him are not immune to the effects of the [Pseudo-Demon Lord's Veil].
If given the chance, Annie wants to use the [False Demon Lord's Veil] in battle.
Even a momentary distortion could determine the life or death of his enemy.
Eating the food they carried with them, they replenished their energy as they moved, until the moment they stepped into the territory, the [Territory Management] indicator lit up.
3. Annie quickly found the succubus of Nightmare, who had multiple fixed contact points in each city.
For example, in the alley next to a certain shop near a certain post station.
This is a viscount's city, not a baron's city, so it's naturally given more importance, and more succubi will be dispatched here.
In addition, this is the Nightmare Viscount Domain, which has even more contact points than other viscount cities.
Furthermore, with the possibility of An Yi appearing here, even more succubi are being deployed to assist him in ensuring he can always find the Nightmare.
So soon, An Yi arrived at Nightmare's temporary base in the city.
As if they were waiting for him to return at any moment, there were many more succubi on standby at the temporary stronghold.
