The Ranking Battles (4)

I was holding back on using my skills since they took immense tool on my body, but Winand was not an opponent I could defeat while holding back.

So I decided to go all out.

My stance changed as I raised my sword, holding it with both hands. The blade gleamed with a newfound intensity as I concentrated on activating a powerful skill I had recently acquired. Sweat dripped down my forehead as I struggled to contain its immense power.

"Just a little longer," I whispered to myself, my voice filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension. "I can do this."

Winand who saw me got cautious and cast a water shield before continuing his chant.

But I wasn't concerned, my concentration was drawn to the skill.

Something inside me moved, and black energy rose from my hands like a blazing fire and enclosed my sword.

Beads of sweat dripped down my forehead as I tried to withstand its pressure.

'As I thought, It is still too much for my body.'
