Chapter 53. Enlightenment
The Next Day
Licht sat in class, half-listening to the droning of the instructor while skimming through the files Ashford had sent.
He had already read and memorised everything yesterday night, so even this skimming was redundant. The information on the Valtier Sword Style was more comprehensive than he’d expected, so Licht had absorbed it easily, but despite this, one thought kept nagging at him:
[ Would you like to use your Enlightenment Points to upgrade your understanding of the Valtier Sword Style? ]
When Licht first completely read the technique files, that was the notification he had received
Surprisingly, though, Licht’s first instinct wasn’t to upgrade the Valtier Style at all. Instead, it was to enhance his Valemont Sword Technique.
In Licht’s mind, if he could push his only S-rank technique,『 God’s Descent (S)』, to SS-rank, then for five minutes under the effect of his 「Infinite Copy Eyes」, he’d be almost unstoppable.
No different from a famous Caped Baldy... and to make things better, he’d still have his hair
But unfortunately, this ambition was destined to be short-lived.
Valemont Sword Technique has reached its current maximum level. To further upgrade, you must deduce the next stage.
[ The Enlightenment Points required are insufficient and cannot be used. ]
[ Requirement to bring down Enlightenment Point cost: Knowledge of the technique’s origin and theory ]
