Chapter 103: Nature of Transcendence
Now adding that to his future agenda’s Azrael then continues checking on the skills that he acquired, the two passive skills also not paling in comparison to the two unique active skills.
[Titan Scale Shield (A-Rank Unique Passive)]
[A perfect defensive ability requires a modicum of knowing the enemy’s might before being used, this is the exact materialization of such thoughts, granting its user the ability to defend against any attack that might come along the way.]
[Effects: Every time the ascender is hurt, a temporary stat: Defense, will rise up by a single point. Once the Defense reaches one thousand points, the ascender will enter a Scaled Titan State that decreases every damage received by seventy-five percent. This state lasts for a minute.]
’This is perfect in combination with Absolute Regeneration...’ thinking of such things, Azrael smiles as he thought nothing much of this skill in comparison to the others, however, he still recognizes this passive as something extremely important as it excels in what he completely lacks in, mitigating extremely strong attacks from those extremely strong opponents such as treasure guardians.
’This will save a lot of time...’ he added as he knows full well just how vulnerable he is when it comes to immeasurable forces of the monsters that he is facing more often than not, and this reduction along would be enough for him to stand on equal grounds, or if not, parry some blows at the very least without dying immediately to their attacks an extremely great progress compares to when he was fighting against the Fortress Golem, if such one sided beating can even be called a fight.
After all, he had to rely solely on his unevolved Absolute Regeneration back then in order to survive just barely whenever he receives even the slightest of graze from the Fortress Golem back then, meaning that just to land hits on the titanic monster, he had to thread the needle every time with pinpoint precision, and hardly would he have any respite especially when he was just starting to fight against the monster of immense might.
Now with such passive skill, he felt like he is one step closer to fighting against the treasure guardian of the second floor on equal grounds, especially since there are some methods that he thought he could use to maximize the effects of such passive skill in mind.
Now checking the last skill that he acquired before checking out the most interesting item that he received right now, the young man smiles as he thought of the fact that this final skill seems to be a bit out of expectation, after all, the rewards one can earn when felling monsters are related to the nature of the monster they fell, and this skill, based on what he observed and experienced during the fight with the Island Orca, is something completely unrelated to the titanic monster, except for the name of the quest related to it being similar.
