Level 5 cave''sst howling tomb.


    Rin just entered, prepared to give her one touch to the fight.


    Thendscape was a hot desert of gleaming white-brown sand, and her enemy was a two-meter tall, slender, muscled humanoid with a spiky Scorpio tail and an exoskeleton covering its body.


    The distance between the two of them was one kilometer. Too Short.


    Rin narrowed her eyes. ''So, it''s counter-type.''


    The challenger was standing wlessly, his back slightly arched and his scorpion tail beautifully yet dreadfully curved with a lethal sting.


    Rin didn''t waste time. She was prepared!


    1 second into the battle.


    Her figure faintly shone as she straightened her sharp katana, its de whirling with dark red and blue lightning bolts.


    Seeing the katana pointed at him, the scorpion-predetor''s eyes ever so slightly narrowed.


    2 seconds.


    The air around it changed, and a faint aura spread out, turning into a domain.


    Rin knew that this enemy wouldunch a powerful and swift counter, but the skill she was about to use wouldn''t give it any chance.


    Lighting permeated throughout her body. Her muscles and fibers stretched to the extreme as they were filled with power by exerting her stamina.


    3 seconds.


    Her hand that held her katana stretched backward as Rin took a side-standing stance, with her de''s tip still pointed towards her enemy.


    And then, mana condensed into a formation that executed her skill while Spirit Force permeated her execution of skill, directly boosting it in every way.


    3.5 seconds.


    And then, she swung her de just once with extreme precision and body movement that her one swing began a rapid spinning motion of her body.


    The electricity buzzed and screamed around her as she literally looked like an extremely fast spinning top whirling with dark red lightning!


    All the power she exerted, the skill she executed, consumed Mana, de energy, and Spirit force…was for this spin.


    At the moment, Rin had to exert her Spiritual Mystic Eye to the max, but she could begin her barrage anytime.


    At 4 seconds, Rin was spinning exceptionally fast.


    At 4.5 seconds, fifteen shes shot out from her spin, straight towards the challenger….who, by any means, couldn''t react to the speed at all!


    The speed of those sh projectiles that emerged with such lightning speed that even space itself literally ripped slightly on their path was fueled by Rin''s body''s motion while her katana remained in rotation, at constant sh!


    She was essentially making thousands of shes during her spin while wielding her katana!


    At 5 seconds, hundreds of shes shot forward; her opponent tried to dodge but could only avoid a few while the rest increased Severums on him!


    The stacks!


    But Rin was not even going all out.


    *CHREEEE!!*


    Her enemy decided to attack her by getting close to her and powering up a lethal mid-range attack because its specialty, counter-attack domain,pletely failed to react to Rin''s shes!


    At 5.6 seconds into battle, the enemy swiftly closed the gap while Rin decided to go all out to finish the battle.


    The distance between them was a mere couple hundred meters, but the spinning Rin shone brightly with dark red sparks before a barrage of shes emerged again.


    At 5.9 seconds, hundreds of shes she released cut her enemy into pieces before the Scorpio predator could reach Rin, sessfully finishing the challenge!


    Notification rang out, and the spinning wheel appeared before her.


    Rin got the idea of spinning to maximize releasing her shes from this spinning wheel. It was only an idea of a simple thing, but it created the most powerful skill for her yet!


    For instance, a sh usually urs when Rin swings her katana horizontally or vertically, from left to right. But even if she swings her hands at the fastest speed to and fro to make shes, it would never reach the same number of shes a spin can produce!


    Rin was spinning with her katana! It was a single horizontal sh that could perpetually go on for as long as she continued to spin perfectly, at perfect precision, at perfect center bnce, with her speed! The number of shes she could throw each second depended on her spinning speed!


    This skill was the one she finalized in her meditation and formed!


    Unlimited de shes!


    Of course, she still needed to refine it and improve it.


    ''''Tsk, it still consumes more than I want. I need to optimize the formation and execution more."


    Rin looked ahead at the spinning wheel and pulled the lever, a grin on her face as she looked at the spin because it was the one that gave her the inspiration to create this skill.


    After a few seconds, Rin pulled the lever again as the spinning wheel started slowly down before finally stopping.


    [Congrattions! You got a random talent catalyzation.]


    A moment after that, Rin suddenly felt weird inside her, feeling numb yet hollowly cold!


    ''''What''s going on?!''''


    Just like Erix, her Talent Catalyzation began.


    …


    On the other hand, Erix faced his challenger, the same Scorpio-tail humanoid with an exotic exoskeleton covering its body.


    Erix was five kilometers away from his enemy, and no matter what his enemy did, he would maintain his distance while sting it hard with his Mayhem ster Form!


    With an exotic slender metallic suit covering Erix''s body with two giant metallic gauntlets on his hands as a stark contrast to the rest of the form, Erix was an avatar of machine-gun Gatling punches as 1-meter long punch projectiles entered through wormholes and bombarded his enemy!


    Whirling Punch 2.0 projectiles, Sling Shot Punch 2.0 projectiles, Imposing Shock Fist projectiles!


    This form utilized his 2nd realm of Punch concept to his best, but Erix still felt he could go a step beyond and utilize his 2nd realm punch concept''s power more.
