Chapter 192.4
I finally reached Rank 5 and caught up with Nero, a Phantom Beast, in terms of combat power, and for some reason, Nero was in a good mood knowing that I had caught up with him, but from Jesha’s point of view, I guess she felt as if she had been surpassed by someone who had been in the same rank until recently.
The only thing that improved in my skill level was [Dagger Arts], but I also reached level 5 in [Detection] during the assassination battle in the dungeon. I wonder if the reason I got a high level of [Abnormal Condition Resistance] was because of how tough the battles have been since I came to this desert.
“[Yes], that’s too light of a response from you… unsociable disciple. You’ve overtaken your master’s combat power as well, so you should be at least a little happy.”
Master said that with a dumbfounded look on her face, but I quietly shook my head.
“No. This is still not enough.”
I muttered to myself, and my mentor and Jesha looked at me with dismay. But I need something else to beat that girl.
“Master…I have a technique in mind.”
I pointed out lightly, and her eyes widened when she heard my explanation.
