The next skill in line was [Aegis Arcane].
A translucent blue screen flickered before Alex, displaying the skill's details:
[Arcane Aegis]: Blocks all powerful attacks, with a 30% chance to reflect damage back at the attacker, amplified by 50%. Great for defense and turning the tide of battle. The barrier slows your movement by 20%. Cooldown: 30 seconds.
Alex's eyes narrowed.
This skill had saved his ass more times than he could count—blocking devastating attacks, buying him time, turning the tables when things looked grim.
Yet somehow, it was only C-rank?
A skill this good was certainly worthy of being the second skill he upgraded to rank S.
And that's exactly what he was about to do.
To boost [Aegis Arcane] to S-rank, he needed three upgrade stones.
That meant sacrificing 150 stat points.
Alex didn't hesitate.
He navigated the attribute converter, selecting the 150-point deduction, confirming it, and—
FLASH!
