"Huff."
I exhaled a deep breath, the heat swirling around me as the sharp scent of sweat filled my nose.
"One, two, three…"
With the temple finally empty, I could now wield Balerion freely.
My training had become far more effective since I raised my talent to S-rank. My sword made a huge difference as well.
"One, two, three…"
It cut through the air itself. Unlike ordinary swords, I could unleash dozens of strikes in mere seconds with Balerion in my hands.
I had intensified my training ever since my battle with Feyrith. That fight had taught me a lot.
I couldn't rely solely on my sword. If I wasn't strong myself, it wouldn't make much of a difference.
I needed to strengthen my foundation and fully understand my abilities.
The power was already inside me—I just had to bring it out.
I sank into deep focus as I activated my new ability—
Ascension.
My expression sharpened, my eyes glowing with a dark violet light.
