"Ah Mr. Raid. You’re back." Said one the guards. Going by the natag on his uniform, his na was Carl.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Oh, but the Dungeon Gate isn’t closing. Does that an that you couldn’t clear it this ti?" Asked Carl’s partner, Fred.
"Well actually, I-"
"Idiot." Before I could even answer, Carl interrupted with a jab to his partner. "It’s obvious that the Dungeon isn’t closing because the Silent Wind Party is still in there." He then added.
"Well at least Carl has so faith in . I an it’s odd that he seems convinced that I’m capable of clearing a Dungeon faster than a full party of five experienced Warriors, despite the fact that they even entered first. Of course I did get so help from a crazy OP A-Rank but these guys don’t know that. Then again, I shouldn’t expect anything different, considering the so called ’’unheard of’’ feats I’ve displayed so far, not to ntion my cheat abilities that seem very capable of making the strongest Warrior in history in the future."
"Oh c’mon Carl. Mr. Raid is capable, sure...but to be able to clear a Dungeon faster than Silent Wind, a party that was far stronger than even the Zeke Party is just madness."
"There you go. Attaboy Freddy. See now this...this is the kinda doubt I can definitely get used to."
"Well, then you oughta expect to see more madness every ti I’m involved from now on." I lightly tapped Fred’s shoulder.
"M-Mr. Raid. You don’t an-"
"I do. Silent Wind must’ve also gotten a ssage that the Dungeon was cleared as soon as I did it, so they should be coming out very soon. But uh...small favor? Don’t tell them it was who cleared it, alright?"
"Judging by the thod, and Peyton used to clear the Dungeon, I doubt we left a good number of Goblins out for them. Which ans that because of us, or, since no one but knows that Peyton was there, because of , they missed out on a ton of Mana Crystals. I can only hope that their personalities aren’t anything like that of the Zeke Party’s, so I’m not taking any chances. And since they’re supposedly stronger than the Zeke Party ever was, they’ll definitely be more troubleso."
"A-alright..." Fred seed like he was still trying to process things so his reply was a little out of it.
Carl, however, was smiling ear to ear and looking at as if I was so work of art.
"Is this what it’s like to have a fan? Yeah, I definitely can’t get used to this."
"Great. I’ll be on my way now, good work fellas." I bid them farewell as I walked towards my car, entered and drove off.
"Hm...it hadn’t really sunk in before but I look terrible, my clothes are half burnt and covered in dried blood stains. Peyton told to be at the Association in an hour. The hotel I’m staying at is close so I should have enough ti to change and go there if I hurry, right?"
"Yeah, but first. So, good ole fashioned MCA."
"Oh, who am I kidding? There’s nothing old fashioned about the way I absorb Mana Crystals... Whatever, let’s get to it."
I activated my Item Space Skill, Bladework Skill, Treasure Hunt Skill, Soul-Piercing Eyes Skill, Cultivator Skill, Fury of Dantian Skill and finally Astral Unification Skill.
"It’s insane, when I first used this absorption thod, the pain in my chest was insurmountable, but now, it’s almost as easy as breathing. My developnt speed really is unmatched. I don’t think there’s a single Warrior out there who can get stronger at the sa rate that I do."
I started absorbing. My Cultivator Skill was now B-Rank so I was able to absorb 130 of the Mana Crystals at a ti. After a little while, I felt a constantly growing power surge within .

"Yeah. I can definitely dog walk an A-Rank now." I couldn’t even begin to calculate how much stronger I’d gotten. I just knew I had beco a total powerhouse.
"I now only have one E-Rank Skill, and that’s only because it’s still pretty new. My Physical Related Stats have all entered B-Rank. My Mana Capacity Stat instantly went passed the D-Rank Minimum. All-in-all, though they aren’t low, my Stats aren’t what contributes most to my being as strong as a high level A-Rank... It’s my Skills. After all, I’ve got six A-Rank Skills now. Sothing a D-Rank Warrior can only dream of. Furthermore, Cultivator...I thought it’d easily beco A-Rank due to that hint but instead it jumped straight to S-Rank and I can roughly figure out why. It’s because of that Unbreakable Skill I got from the Goblin Lord that Cultivator rged with. From my understanding of the Skill, it allowed one to increase the quality and quantity of their Mana by purifying it with willpower alone, and in doing so, draw out great power from within, one fueled by the strength of their spirit. Since the concept of obtaining an S-Rank Skill and above works similarly in that regard, my guess is that, that specific aspect of Unbreakable is what acted as a catalyst for the Cultivator Skill to reach S-Rank. Now the icing on the cake is that Cultivator specifically was the one to reach S-Rank since it’s one of only two Skills that temporarily increase all my Stats including Mana Capacity. Then there’s the Item Space, it says that it’s habitable now, which ans that I should be able to go inside it. I’ll see about that after I deal with that Association fiasco."
I decided to not go and change after all and just go there as I was.
"I’m practically being forced to do this anyway, so why the fuck should I give a shit about presentation?" I retorted in the seclusion on my own car.
And so I drove straight there. Begrudgingly so if I may add. I then parked my car after arriving and imdiately entered the building. I made my way to the Registered Warrior Service section then headed to the sa table I headed to last ti when attended Peyton . This ti though, there was a different girl there acting as the receptionist. There was no line. In fact, the entire reception hall wasn’t as crowded as it usually was.
"Must be because it’s gotten a bit late." Ithought.
I turned my gaze over to the receptionist. Hazel. She was busy with her computer and therefore couldn’t see .
"Hey there."
"Oh hello." She replied. "How may I be of assist---it’s you." She added as she looked up to , as if noticing an old acquaintance.
"Uhm-"
"It’s really you! Raid, the Blacksmith!"
"Ah, shit. Here we go again."
