The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

"I have given a chance for you to live, but I guess idiot will always be idiot, huh?"

Sheila couldn't help but let out an exasperated sigh as she immediately used the shadow to bind the guy holding the knife in place as he halted in progress of stabbing Yuna. Seeing his subordinate frozen on the spot gives him a strange feeling and though he finds that weird, Rodrick believes that his subordinate is going against his order which caused him to frown, and after hearing Sheila's remark, his eyes turned cold for a moment before it went back to normal as he gestured the man next to him.

But before the man could slip his hands into his jacket to pull out a pistol hidden within, he was send flying and hits the wall hard before coughing a mouthful of blood. He couldn't comprehend what had just happened and before he knew it, he was sent flying. One thing that he knows for sure is that his ribs are broken by the sudden hits from a powerful shockwave like that of being hit by a truck. Though the pain is assaulting him so hard, the man tried to get up on his feet and looked up, only for his mind to go blank. On his previous spot now stood Sheila with her arm gripped into a fist in a thrust motion, it was obvious that what sent him flying was from a punch he received from Sheila, and as he was unable to see the attack, it was impossible to defend.

Though the truth was right in front of them, everyone in the room except Ria couldn't believe what they had witnessed. Even with the pain in his guts, the man still tried slipping his hand into his jacket but the pistol that was supposed to be in there is now missing.

"Are you looking for this?"

With their eyes still locked on her, Sheila swiftly brings out a pistol out of thin air(from their perspective) and aim toward the man in question. The man couldn't even mutter a word before a gunshot resounds, with an incomprehensible look on his face, the man looked down and saw his left arm now bore a small hole where the bullet had pierced through as blood started pouring from his injured arms. Once it registered into his mind, the man grabbed onto the injured spot with his other hand before shrieking at the pain assaulting his body.

"AHHHH! My Arm! W-What just happened?"

"What else, I simply just fire a test shot on you. Next time, it won't be just your arm, you know?"

"W-What!"

The man couldn't understand how the pistol that was supposed to be in his jacket is now in the hands of the girl he had looked down upon the first meeting. When Sheila had punched him in the guts, she had sneakily stolen the gun from him before sending the man flying straight to the wall at the speed that no one in the whole room could see with their slow eyes. Even then, that was still her holding back her strength, if she had used all her strength, the man's body would have exploded to pieces when her fist hits him. Though Sheila could have just use Intimidation on everyone in the room to make them scared shitless, that would not stop them from plotting against her again once she left the room.

There are many ways she could traumatize them, but trying to keep her power conceal gives her only a few choices left available. Sheila would be an idiot if she used all her power to destroy this many scums in the room, although none of them wouldn't be able to tell a soul as they would be dead by then, that doesn't mean that the 'old monster' from the supernatural side of the world won't be able to sense that the mana in the air has thickened much more than in the other places. Though the chances of that happening are slim, it is not zero.

"W-What just happened?"

Seeing the absurd scene occurring in front of him, Rodrick couldn't understand how a 'normal' girl suddenly appeared next to his side without him being able to see nor sensing her passing, and the most unbelievable thing that he saw was the man who was standing next to him send flying by a simple 'punch' to the guts from that very same 'normal' girl! Just that already caused his brain to overdrive, but the next thing he saw caused him to broke down completely as Sheila pulled out a pistol from thin air and fired at the man on his back against the wall.

"Ugh..."

And when Rodrick finally came to his sense, Ria has already defeated many of his men standing guard near Yuna as they laid on the ground groaning at the pain they suffered from Ria's hands. It seemed that when he was focused on Sheila, at a corner of his view, Ria had already made a move on her own when Sheila gives her the signal only the two knows. Rodrick couldn't comprehend how in just a short amount of time that half of the thugs he had hired were already defeated by someone else without being able to put a fight.

Without answering his question, Sheila aims the gun in her hands toward him. Rodrick flinched as he steps back from being pointed closely from a gun, but when he realized that he had just cowered from her, Rodrick steps forward without fear this time and said.

"I applaud how both of you were able to finished half of the thugs I have hired, but you don't possibly think you already win, right? Even if you defeated all these people in the room, I still have my men outside waiting for my call with weapons equipped. If they didn't receive any message or signal from me, they would rush inside and even if you're strong more than I expected, you can't possibly dodge a rain of bullet right?"
