Raith as he had thought was finding it hard to let go. These were very good skills that would be a game changer for him.

He sighed, one part of him wanted to horde them to himself but he had spent all the money in his account to get these. If he decided to horde them he would have to take from Netherland's treasure to buy another one.

Which he didn't want to do.

[Are you sure you want to delete the skill?]

The question was as if the abyss was telling him, do you really want to delete such a good skill?

But a man gotta do what a man gotta do.

'Yes...'

[You have gained 200 skill fragments]

A whooping two hundred!

[You have gained 200 skill fragments]

[You have gained 1000 skill fragments]

'What the fuck?!! One thousand skill fragments for an EX rank skill?!'

[You have gained 1000 skill fragments]

"Stop!"

His sudden shout made Mok Jae-Hwa and Balam worried.

"Are you okay?"

"Are you okay, master?"

They asked Simultaneously, each with different tone.

"I'm fine... I'm fine..." Raith responded with a light cough and looked at the tab in front of him.

[Do you want to halt the deletion of 'Flash']

'I already have more than what I need why bother deleting such a good skill'

Raith closed that part of the tab and checked something else.

[Skill fragments: 3145]

[You have the required Fragment to create one-time skill copy sunlight]

[Go to the designated location where you'd like to use this skill]

Raith smiled.

'I have to go back to Antartica, but first I must test something out.'

He shifted his gaze to Balam who was already worried at the way Raith's eyes stayed on me.

"Master?"

A corner of Raith's lips went up.

"Let's spar."

"No way, I do not want to be disgraced by you for a second time. I refuse master."

Balam genuflected immediately with his head on the ground.

"So you would refuse your master's order."

"I apologize master!"

"Don't worry, it is just a simple friendly spar."

Balam slowly raised his head and look at Raith, he was considering it.

Mok Jae-Hwa looked at the two, especially Balam, according to the story, Balam was the summoned demon that tried to propagate destruction in the world of Therut but was defeated by Raith.

Even so, it was just to hard to believe such a being is a demon capable of destroying the world. Mok Jae-Hwa shook his head, he wondered when normal lost its description in his life.

His life had turned upside down since he had met Raith. It was head wrecking but he looked forward to the fun and surprise of each day.

It was the same for other members of Rain guild who had somehow become friends of everyone here. And everyone was super hyped up because Yujin was in her third trimester, they would be expecting Sung Min Jr anytime soon.

"This will be simple?"

"Yes" Raith nodded.

Balam slowly stood up, he stepped back carefully, his eyes not leaving Raith for a moment.

"You don't need to use all your power, just come at me seriously."

Balam was still skeptical, it was as if he wanted to confront a traumatic experience. He performed a deep inhale and exhale before getting in position.

He simply stood upright with his arms raised a bit forward. Yet, he had deleted all the openings in his body.

Mok Jae-Hwa's eyes widened with surprise, of course he had a mental skill that allowed him to be able to analyze the movement of his opponent and execute his actions with the best possible route.

It was where Raith's [Multiple Cognitive Rosanance] evolved from.

So, he was the very few people who could see just how skilled Balam was. Just by changing his pose, he had shifted awareness to all his opening and stood in such a way that he would be able to protect every area of his body within a calculated time frame.

It was a magnificent thing.

Mok Jae-Hwa's eyes moved to Raith.

Raith was full of openings, every area was opening. Mok Jae-Hwa was at first disappointed. He thought Raith had grown so much from his fight in Theru.

'How did he defeat Balam if he can't even erase the weaknesses in his body?'

[Switching to Auto Mode]

[Focus Mode will be activated]

[Do you want to grant Auto Mode access over all your skills]

'Yes, especially Frost weaver'

[Access granted]

Raith had left the skill after discovering that it wasn't a skill but an art. He received an art after defeating Noir but didn't pay attention to it.

He only saw the skill description when he wanted to delete it and could relate to what an art meant from fighting Egard-Hearl. He still did not have a full grasp of the full meaning of an art.

But having something good felt nice.

The two disappeared, leaving a subtle explosion of the air as they took off.

As they came close to each other, Balam's skin became darker and streaks like that of volcano began to tear open on his skin.

Balam lunged rapid strikes at Raith, his arms exploding forward with incandescent fire. Raith blocked every attack, despite Balam's hand being ablaze he did not dodge any and parried everything with a magnificent speed.

Balam's eyes shone with praises even though he was supposed to be focused on finding an opening. He couldn't help by be wowed by Raith's betterment.

'He's able to catch my attacks effortlessly well.'

Also, the way Raith's eyes moved, in every direction it hand went, with the same rate of speed. It was as though Raith was in some moment.

It brought his mind back to when Raith had faced him entering some state of focus.

'No, this isn't that... his whole aura was different that time'

Just as Balam proposed in his subconscious as he continually threw lighting fast punches at Raith. Raith's aura when he entered the state of Samadhi was completely different. This wasn't what he felt that time.

Whapp!!

Swoosh!

'Wha–'

Before his eyes could follow, Raith's hands slapped his chest. Following the wind blast from the impact, Balam was propelled away, across hundred meters in an instance hitting his back against the sleek white wall and leaving a crack on it.

"Flash..."

Before he could stand, Raith sped across the ground and was in front of him as he raised his head. His hand up in the air.

Balam's head followed Raith's eyes that was in the air, his eyes widened.

Ice weapons of different forms and shape had been created in the air and circled on him from above.

"I–

"Don't you dare, this match is just getting started."
