[You have received the "Slayer I" status effect.]
Stark unsummoned the [Ghost Wolf] at that moment.
For what was about to come, he wanted no distractions.
Ding!
[Your "Lives loss rate" has been doubled as punishment.]
Stark let out a slow breath. So it had finally triggered.
This was another one of [Eternal Soul]'s mechanics, and unlike most, this one was heavy. Very heavy.
Every time you killed someone, it added to your [Kill] counter.
Didn't matter if it was a player or an NPC.
The system tracked everything.
And once you crossed a certain threshold, it gave you a special status effect: [Slayer].
[Slayer I] for fifty kills. [Slayer II] for two hundred and fifty kills. [Slayer III] for one thousand kills. [Slayer IV] for two thousand five hundred kills.
And finally… [Slayer V] for ten thousand kills.
That last one was the end. Stark knew it well.
In his past life, he had only reached [Slayer II], and even then, he had avoided killing as much as possible afterward.
