Finally as Vritra tore apart three mountain like Orcs, much stronger than the previous ones several messages popped in front of him.

Vritra panted as he sat down, his entire body painted dark red in blood; his body had gone through a significant change, his hair had grown long and his physique was becoming more and more perfect.
"Huff Finally another month ended, this was a little tougher than the previous ones; I had to use a few healing and mana regeneration potions, but there are still a lot… sigh how am I going to do this for eight more months?"
Vritra sighed, smelling the stench of blood from his own body, before adding: "But it's a good thing the demons' blood and flesh just disappear in my belly somehow, otherwise how would I look if I died while shitting in a corner."
Recently he had started to talk to himself quite a bit, maybe to cling onto whatever sanity was left of him or maybe losing his sanity was the reason behind it.
Uninterestedly he gazed at his status panel.

There were several other changes in his status window, like levelling up of a couple of his skills and a new collection of rations had been added to his inventory along with all the goblin corpses; now there were more than 500 of each, Orc Lord, Orc Warrior, Orc hunter.
"The goblins and orcs dropped so many weapons after their death, it's a pity most of them are too weak and quite unusable; it would have been great if I had a way to use them somehow." Vritra mumbled to himself as he turned back to look at the countless weapons lying all over the place.
[Mutamorphis activated.]
[Scanning the surrounding…]
[You have acquired the skill: Weapon Fusion.]
"…"
"Wow so now I just need to say and I can get a new skill? Well whatever, I guess I will be combining all these weapons then." He spoke and then tested: "Give me a god tier skill that can instantly increase my level to the Max."
"…"
But nothing happened, sighing Vritra shook his head; he expected something like that.
Then a big smile appeared on Vritra's face as he gazed at all the different ranks weapons lying across the large space. "I have accumulated quite a lot of allocation points, whichever stat I add them to will receive a huge improvement but I will add them based on the situation."
In the future when he faces opponents stronger than him than based on the opponent's abilities he could invest into certain attribute, that will certainly increase his winning probability.
But just as the orcs had disappeared, another message popped.

Sighing again he created two long swords of dust, sharpening them to the extreme as he got ready for another round.
Once again the ground rumbled but with even more intensity, Vritra waited patiently through the same repeated process and soon he got to see his next targets.
He once again saw countless demons charging forward before they were stopped by the invisible wall, they looked much more dangerous and ferocious than any of the previous demons.
after a few minutes, the invisible wall disappeared and the wave of demons flooded towards Vritra with a single goal of killing him.
"So trolls huh, looks like I will be eating some regenerative meat next… they are quite troublesome though."
Right after speaking he began cutting through the endless horde, as more time passed more messed up his mind became, all his thoughts disappeared and he only remembered that he had to kill these creature as many as possible.
As his swords began to slice the trolls bodies into small pieces, two ethereal eyes observed him from the space beyond the walls of the cave; present there from the start but the more it observed Vritra the more awed it became.
In the start, the ethereal eyes had only glanced at him believing him to be just another person who had fallen into this deadly trap. Just based on his strength at the first level nothing was expected from Vritra, the figure was sure that he would die within a couple of minutes of the first wave.
But time and time again, Vritra proved himself resilient than most; appearing more ruthless and psychotic than even the demons themselves.
The ethereal figure waited to see, when would he finally break down under the dangerous barrage of demons, but even without any food, water or sleep he went on and one.
Even going as far as devouring the meat and blood of those demons, how was he even a human? He was anything but ordinary.

[You have killed a level 79 Armoured Troll.]
[You have killed a level 69 Mountain Troll.]
[You have killed a level 73 Mountain Troll.]
[You have levelled up.]
It was the eighteenth day when Vritra was walking forward carrying a large dust storm along with him when he suddenly noticed a change, for some reason an invisible wall had appeared in front of the trolls stopping them.
"What is happening? The time shouldn't be up just yet, why have they stopped? This trap is meant to send the demons endlessly until I am dead so why is it stopping now?" Vritra wondered as he allowed the dust blades to disperse.
But after thinking for a few minutes and observing the invisible wall, he couldn't find any answer and it seemed the wall was not going to disappear any time soon, using this perfect chance Vritra finally decided to get some rest.
He used Quick steps and dashed towards the start of the cave, to the very spot where he had started; this spot was quite far from the invisible wall and even if the wall disappear at some point he would have enough time to react.
Without wasting a moment, his body slumped down as exhaustion caught up to him and within a few breaths he was deep in sleep.
Vritra didn't wake up for three whole days and surprisingly the invisible wall held them back for that long, after waking up he took out a troll's headless body and began to eat his fill; he ate the raw meat and finished most of the meat of the troll's large body.
******
"Haa I feel completely refreshed now, my mind feels relaxed and my belly is full, there is none feeling better than this…" Vritra rubbed his belly and sighed in contentedness, still looking like a red alien.
Just as he finished the wall disappeared and the round continued.
"Oh! It is as if this wall was just waiting for me to finish, is someone controlling this all or something?" Vritra pondered to himself as he charged forward with even greater speed and began to rip apart the trolls with a new motivation and power.
"COOMEEEEEEEEE!!" Vritra released a loud war cry that shook the approaching demons, mixed with a deathly aura.
[You have killed a level 87 Armoured Troll.]
[You have killed a level 80 Mountain Troll.]
[You have killed a level 93 Troll Warlord.]
[You have killed a level 94 Troll Warlord.]
…
[You have levelled up.]
[You have levelled up.]
….
Just like that, another month passed as he annihilated different levels of Trolls for 30 days straight, the days he rested weren't counted but he was still happy to finally have some time to refresh, he got a couple more breaks after that, allowing him to sleep peacefully amidst the chaotic space.
The trolls he faced this time ranged from level 60 to somewhere around 94 or 95, the difference between each level grows the stronger one becomes, there were times when Vritra found fighting so many trolls at once quite troublesome.
They had great healing skills so unless they were killed with a single attack, they would be back to their peak in the next moment, so they were much more dangerous than goblins and orcs even their intelligence was higher.
Vritra drank half the bottle of Advance healing potion, as a warm feeling spread across his body and all the injuries disappeared almost instantly, then he drank the mana regeneration potion.

Just as this message had appeared, all the trolls were pushed back into the darkness as Vritra once again had a moment of peace all for himself, he sat down panting and began to munch on meat.
"Sigh Orc hunter's blood sprinkled over the tender flesh of a Troll Warlord, Mmmm just so perfect." Vritra smacked his lips in satisfaction as he silently ate a large piece of meat while ignoring the messages that always appeared whenever he ate his food.
The size of the piece of flesh was so big that several men wouldn't have been able to finish it easily, Vritra himself would never had imaged that he could eat so much but now he wouldn't be satisfied with a small amount.
His teeth sank into the bloody and fresh meat, as a thin trail of blood dripped down his chin but he didn't really care since he was always bathed in blood, the ragged cloth that he wore was taken away from a troll, it was just enough to hide his body.
Vritra himself hadn't sensed much difference in his body but if others were to see him now even his mother, they would be quite shocked; not only has his height increased slightly but his body looked so perfect now, lean and slender yet still packed with perfectly carved muscles, but his face was always hidden under his long hair and blood.
