Anon defeated the demon and started walking toward the exit door.
"Oi, Kid," a sudden voice ca from behind.
Anon recognized the voice instantly. He turned around to see a white ethereal figure standing before him.
It was Ion's soul. His face was indistinct, but it held a faint smile.
"Old man, are you heading to heaven?" Anon asked with a smile of his own.
"I don't know, but before I depart this world, there's sothing I must ask of you," Ion spoke.
"Ask away," Anon replied.
"What's your na?" Ion inquired.
"Well, you can call Anon," Anon answered.
"Anon... a good na. Anon, you're a genius, but don't let it get to your head. You still have much to learn. Farewell, Anon," Ion said as his soul faded away.
Anon rely smiled and resud his walk toward the door.
He touched the door and opened it with ease. Upon stepping outside, he saw Gin waiting eagerly in front of the door.
"Hello, Gin boy. Did you wait for ?" Anon asked as he patted Gin on the head.
Woof-Woof
Gin barked, rubbing his body against Anon's leg.
"Let's go and see how the outside world is doing," Anon said as he ascended the staircase.
As Anon climbed, he felt his body becoming progressively lighter. The pressure on his body decreased significantly with each step.
"Oh, this is fun," Anon began running, noticing the substantial reduction in pressure.
He abruptly stopped at the 100th step and crouched down, readying his legs.
"Let's see if this works..." Anon said as he gathered Auric Energy into his feet and jumped.
Upon jumping, Anon soared through the air like a rocket, reaching a speed of 4000 m/s.
"Woooohoooooooo...." Anon shouted as he ascended higher and higher into the sky.
Suddenly, his speed began to decrease until he reached a standstill, suspended in the air for two seconds before descending.
During those two seconds, he gazed at the radiant moon in the sky and the drifting clouds.
"Beautiful..." Anon remarked as he descended through the clouds, feeling the refreshing touch of moist air on his face.
Erging from the clouds, he observed the Evensong Forest, cloaked in the darkness of night, with a peculiar light emanating from the southern part.
Anon imdiately recognized the source of this light.
"It seems it's ti to settle so debts," Anon spoke with a smile.
Woof-Woof
Suddenly, Gin's bark echoed from the ground.
Anon adjusted his landing direction toward Gin's sound.
Boooom
Upon landing on the ground, several trees disappeared instantaneously from the surrounding ground.
"Fuuu... that was amazing," Anon said as he ran his hand through his hair.
Woof-Woof
Gin continued to bark, his gaze fixed on Anon. As if trying to tell him sothing.
"I know, boy. I know. We're back here to settle so debts and we have to avenge you too, right ?" Anon asked.
*Woof-Woof*
Gin barked.
Suddenly Anon felt sothing around his leg, as if sothing is trying to pull him. He imdiately looked down and noticed various vines on the ground reaching out to leg.
Anon swiftly grabbed the vines and uprooted them.
"Not this ti," Anon said with a smile.
As Anon ventured deeper into the dense woods, he noticed a multicolored light seeping through the trees.
He followed the light and arrived at his intended destination.
Leaping out of the bushes, he found himself standing before the Prampel tree once more.
"Hello, motherfucker... You taking your sweet ti here, huh? You rember from last ti, right?" Anon asked with a grin, hands in his pockets as he walked toward the Prampel tree.
Whip
Suddenly, a vine shot out from behind, wrapping around Anon's waist. The Prampel tree sensed Anon's heightened aura, but it attempted to throw him away regardless.
"Hmm...? Do you really think you can move with that?" Anon asked nacingly.
The Prampel tree's vines grasped Anon's limbs and even his face, covering him from head to toe. But Anon remained unyielding.
"Remove these filthy things from mmy body, bitch." Anon said softly, as a white aura enveloped him, causing the Prampel tree's vines to burst into small particles of dust.
The Prampel tree imdiately sensed the amount of danger and employed two of its leaves.
Two brilliant leaves dropped lifelessly, and its vines aid at Anon.
[Master... He consud two leaves.] Link inford imdiately.
"Don't worry... he can't do shit," Anon replied with a calm voice.
Booom
Boooom
Booom
Suddenly, the vines began hurling fireballs at Anon from all directions.
It was a brutal sight; Anon beca a walking fireball. The tree showed no rcy.
This continued for the next 40 minutes.
After 40 minutes, the tree ceased the barrage of fireballs to see Anon's dead body at last.
"Hahahhaah... You got anything stronger than that, huh?" Anon asked, his voice echoing from the inferno.
Suddenly, he erged from the flas and charged toward the tree.
"You are finished, you bitch," Anon declared, delivering an incredibly powerful punch, concentrating his Auric Energy into it.
The tree instantly consud more than ten leaves and attempted to attack Anon with its vines, but this ti Anon reached it before it could react.
"DIE.... FUCKER." Anon yelled as he punched the tree, transferring all his Auric Energy into it.

[Siphoned Punch: First Form, DeathGiver]
Booooooooooom
A massive explosion ensued, shrouding the area in dust.
After a while, the dust settled, and Anon slowly opened his eyes.
Upon opening his eyes, Anon beheld a startling sight.
The Prampel tree lay in ruins, broken into pieces.
[Level Up!]
[Level Up!]
...
Several ssages appeared before him, but Anon paid them little heed. He was fixated on one thing—the tree's leaves.
They still glowed, despite the tree's destruction.
[Master, Absorb them.] Link spoke.
"What? Why should I absorb them?" Anon asked, perplexed.
[Master, each leaf from this tree contains a potent life essence... if you absorb them, your life expectancy will increase by several years.]
"How many years?" Anon inquired.
[If you absorbed every single one... it might add up to around 5000 years.]
"What the fuck? Are you kidding ?" Anon asked, utterly surprised.
