Ats had won!
“Ha... ha ha ha!”
Laughter bubbled up from deep within him. He pulled off his helmet, letting the cool air hit his sweat-drenched face.
Before him y the massive body of the Orc, its enormous form riddled with cracks that glowed faintly with fire. The stone club it had wielded shimmered with the same fiery aura.
A notification fshed in his vision:

Ats began reviewing the notifications that appeared in his vision one by ohe battle had earned him several skill level-ups, eae a major boost to his abilities. But what caught his attention the most ecial item he had received: the Emberguard Band.
It was a bracelet, heavy ached with glowing runes. He slipped it onto his left wrist, feeling the heat pulse faintly against his skin. Before tinuing, he checked the item's detailed effects:

“Wow,” Ats muttered, admiring the bracelet. The bination of stamina servation, fire resistance, and area-of-effect damage made it an incredible asset.
Ats also unlocked several alents and skills.

Another Rank-S talent! He couldn’t help but smile, satisfied with the extraordinary talent he had just unlocked. While it was still tered around his spear, he didn’t mind.
If he ever wao learn other on types iure, he could still train this talent and potentially evolve it into something more versatile.
Over the past few weeks, his spear had been his lifeline. From endurance runs to practig attack patterns, and even in real battles against monsters, the spear had been aension of himself. By bining all of that with his elemental power, it was no surprise that this talent had finally taken form.

He even unlocked a new skill. And, this ourned out to be a passive skill!
The beauty of passive skills was their sheer efficy. They ed no mana and less stamina pared to active skills and didn’t require deliberate activatioriggered automatically, adapting to the user’s situation.
What made this particur skill even more incredible was that it didn’t just affect him; it also extes bes to any allies nearby.

It was clear that the stamina-focused training Ats had dedicated himself to aying off in a big way. The relentless runs, the grueling drills, and the tinuous sparring had not only improved his endura also directly influehe type of skills he was unlog.

This time, the skill was infused with water and ice elements. It seemed this development was a direct result of Ats frequently using water-based abilities during his training. Over time, his water skills had naturally advanced, brang into the Ice Element.
Water had always been his basio, with the highest affinity. Because of this, unlog this skill felt like a natural evolution, ohat came with the most potential frowth.
Ats sed through the notifications o time, ensuring he hadn’t missed anything.
After taking a moment to pose himself, Ats decided to review his overall status.
He knew for certain that his total stat points had increased drastically.
