*Ding!*

-System: are you sure you want to upgrade your A-rank talent to S-rank? Yes/No

Without hesitation, Fein clicked the Yes button.

-System: The talent is being upgraded, it would take 1 month before the upgrade process would finish!-

Fein was slightly surprised by this. He thought that, just like the earlier upgrades, the promotion to S-rank would be instant. But now, it seems that he still had to wait for a month before the system can upgrade his talent. Well, it should be an upgrading process. After all, the gap between A-rank to S-rank is pretty huge.

Even Fein doesn't know how big of improvement he would get at that time. Because just with A-rank talent he can already learn the technique with just a mere glance. Learning concepts and complicated subjects like math and science are just a breeze to him now. If his talent became S-rank what would happen? He might even build an interstellar spaceship as a scientist. And if his body control talent reaches S-rank it might even be possible to alter his body structure, height, and facial structures achieving a flawless disguise.

But what he was certain of was, that his swordsmanship would improve tremendously and he can create techniques at that time as his understanding of concepts would also deepen. There are a lot of inhuman possibilities and benefits the S-rank talent would bring.

Fein is excited about the prospect of this. And he was sure that he would become the most talented human to ever exist in history at that time. Anything he tries he will excel. No... No.. No. Everything he tries, he would dominate!

If he doesn't even have that kind of consciousness, then he doesn't deserve these powers.

...

The battle between Aoi and the three Sand Critters was still ongoing. But, Aoi has had the advantage from the start because of her perfect power utilization. Her Ice and Snow power are good for restraining enemies' movements.

The Sand Critters have several punctures on their bodies after being hit by Aoi's "Ice Lance".

"Aoi they have three monster cores inside them, it was the only way to kill them" Sofia shouted.

Hearing her master's kind reminder. Aoi's icy blue irises shimmered. As he breathes Blue Flames against the Sand Critters.

The Sand Critters aren't pushed over either, as they quickly dodge Aoi's flames with swift movements. Their movements in the desert are well practiced as Sand is their natural territory.

The three monsters had their poisonous claws as they charged at Aoi with ferociousness.

Aoi just flew to the sky as a response. The three Sand Critters stopped after seeing this. Their eyes were getting bloodshot. This was the first time the Sand Critters felt helpless. Usually, they would be the ones that would use dirty means to hide underground. But now, they are the ones being kited. The three Sand Critters looked at each other before using Sand Wall to the ground underneath them. The sand wall carried them upwards to the sky, Aoi didn't expect her enemies would do a clever solution at this time.

Aoi was caught off guard at this unexpected move. She quickly used her "Icy Body" as the claws of Sand Critters hit her.

The Icy Body let Aoi's body structure become an Ice itself, making her immune to any physical attacks. Just like that, the fast-moving claws had hit her body in different spots just pass through her body. This is the frightening aspect of the ability to be elementalized. Only a few have this ability because it let them become immune to physical attacks. You have to know that most attack only comes from a physical level even in the S ranks and A ranks.

The only way to defeat an ability user who has this ability was Energy Attacks like a fireball, thunder, etc...

Spiritual attacks are the most effective because they go directly to the soul. It was silent yet deadly. Only by having soul defense one could resist. Unfortunately, soul-related abilities only appear once in a blue moon.

The Sand Critters were unwilling. They relentlessly kept attacking using all of their abilities. Poisonous Bite, Whirling Stroke, Sand Wall, Sand Spear, Tunnel Dig, and Poisonous Claws in all combinations possible. But they were still helpless.

Aoi looked bored at her enemies that suddenly stopped.

Sofia looked at the scene anxiously. Although she knew that Aoi was fine, she doesn't want to see her keep being attacked like this. "Aoi, do you need help?"

"What are you saying? She's as healthy as a grown elephant." Fein chimed in.

Aoi felt warm inside her after witnessing the worried look her master was giving her. So she decided to end this farce.

[Snow Age]

In the sky, snow suddenly appeared and descended on the Desert. As the ice began to spread throughout the place. Fein and Sofia felt the temperature drop to a low degree.

"Aoi was finally getting serious!" Fein commented. He just heard a prompt in his ears just now. Aoi was using Snow Age... A domain ability that let her change the terrain into an Ice and Snow environment.

The Sand Critters sensed the danger, and use their digging ability to run away, but their feet were quickly frozen preventing them from moving even an inch. They frantically tried to struggle but it was futile. Just like that, their body's internal organs began to burst and die to the terrible coldness. As their body was rapidly being swallowed by ice.

Seconds, and minutes have passed. The Sand Critters became snow statues that can be displayed at Museum.

If one would look above the desert, one would see that a part of it became a whole place dominated by Ice and Snow. The hot temperature couldn't approach the place.

Fein coughed feeling that his saliva was starting to turn cold due to the low temperature, he even felt his snot become frozen just now.

"Is this her domain ability?" Sofia asked Fein while looking at the terrible environment. This ability wasn't worse than the domain ability that she have witnessed Voli possess.

Fein went to the Ice Statues. "Let's go"

The Sand Critters have a look of horror on their faces before they were completely frozen. Their eyes have lost their luster, one can imagine how terrible Aoi's Ice power is that she can even freeze the Sand Critters to death even with their vitality.
