Chapter 380: Eighty-Seventh Floor, Waiting Room (1)
[3 hours 12 minutes until the rest period ends. Please take a rest.]
My approach to training shifted slightly after the battle with Endless Furnace.
Considering my divinity had nearly quadrupled, it was only natural. Such large changes meant my training methods had to evolve as well.
That didn’t mean I had become four times stronger, though. While having more divinity was undeniably better, its quantity alone was never a direct measure of one’s power.
If I have to put a number to it, I would say I am not even twice as strong.
Even if I were to face Endless Furnace again right now, I couldn’t guarantee I would win in a one-on-one duel. At best, I had finally reached a point where I could stand on even ground with him.
In truth, the surprise attack using the divine horn and the effectiveness of the Savior skill had tipped the battle in my favor.
Of course, that was just my personal perspective. Perhaps I was overanalyzing things.
Still, it is better to underestimate myself than to fall into the trap that is arrogance.
Even if it was subjective, my reasoning wasn’t entirely off base.
I couldn’t summon Endless Furnace through combat training, but with my experience, I could visualize him well enough to predict the likely outcome.
To be honest, that was precisely why combat training had long since lost its meaning for me. There simply weren’t many opponents left worth fighting. I couldn’t summon divine entities.
