''I'm in love with this skill.'' Raydon was still deep in the woods looking for the bodies of the boars when he looked at the incoming system messages and let out an happy shout.

It had been close to three hours since the beginning of the match, and he had already eliminated the opposing team, the Region Boss, and even his own team. In addition, he had eliminated more than a thousand monsters from the map.

As a result of all of this, he had already surpassed his previous best performance in the matches that he had taken part in up to this point.

''It would appear that there is currently no way for me to increase the number of bees that I can summon, but I can further reduce its cooldown by increasing my stamina,'' Raydon thought as he checked the skill description once more.

[The cooldown of the skill varies based on the user's stamina stat.]

[The damage of the self-destruct varies based on the user's spirit stat.]

Since a single bee in an F-Rank match could easily kill a mob with the help of Raydon's spirit stat sub-skill, the bees didn't need to increase their explosion power at the time. All that was required of Raydon was to figure out how he could make better use of this skill.

''It was sufficient to reduce the 10-minute cooldown to just 6 minutes with the 60 stamina stat that I have. My cumulative experience points will be very close to 60,000 after I finish this match and add those points to the ones I already have. With that many XP, I'm curious how much my stamina can improve. '' Raydon's mind started to wander.

At this point in time, he needed 957 experience points in order to increase his stamina by 1 more, and if he spent all of his experience, he would probably be able to increase his stamina by at least 30 more.

''How much, if at all, will the additional 30-40 stamina stat reduce the skill's cooldown, though? '' He entered a state of deep thought.

The cooldown of the skill was cut by 4 minutes due to his stat total of 60 stamina, but as far as he understood, this ratio was not something precise and exact. Therefore, even if he were to increase the total number of points in his stamina, bringing it up to 120 altogether, the cooldown would not be reduced by 8.

''Wait…What happens if I raise my spirit stat even higher? In essence, isn't it a stat that's closely related to skills? Man, it's a complete gamble, but...''  Raydon was suddenly struck with an idea as he was thinking.

However, before he could give any further thought to the matter, the incoming system message caused a momentary dimming of his vision, and he found himself back in his room.

[The match has ended.]

[Winner Team: B7890-D4850]

[…Based on the contribution, rewards are calculated.]

[You gained gold coins: 428]

[You gained item blueprint: Earring(White)]

[You gained crafting material: Black Boar's tusk(Green)]

[Win streak: 7]

''There is no body enchantment? Oh well, never mind, the experience points I gained more than makes up for it. ''

Due to the fact that Raydon had already amassed a total of 25,710 experience points as a result of the match, the rewards that came along with winning the match were of less significance to him.

''If I go back to the previous topic. What should I do? '' Raydon lay back in his large leather chair, which was quite comfortable, and continued to think.

Actually, he didn't want to spend experience points by increasing his stamina more to reduce the cooldown of only 1 skill, as his defense was quite high right now.

'But by increasing my stamina stat, I can also use my combo longer and more effectively. Nevertheless, increasing my spirit stat can make my overall attack damage more effective. ' Raydon muttered, staring at the ceiling.

Actually, he was more interested in learning which sub-skills he would acquire by raising his spirit stat. Additionally, he was feeling more excitement due to the uncertainty of whether the sub-skill he desired would appear.

If he increased his stamina, the results would be obvious; if he increased his spirit, the results would be entirely random; but if he were to succeed, increasing his spirit would have even more significant effects.

''What to do… What to do… ''

He began to believe that the decision he was about to make was the most important and difficult of his life. It seemed like his gamer brain was thoroughly rotten.

"I suppose I should get some fresh air," Raydon, upon realizing that his thinking was causing him headaches and that he was unable to decide between options, came to the conclusion that he needed to give his mind a rest.

He eased himself up from the comfortable armchair he was sitting in, stretched his arms, and then made his way to the window.

As he opened the window, a fresh breeze from the slums blew in, and he prepared to take a deep breath of the stale, contaminated air. However, he was unable to because he was taken aback by what he saw in the street.

"What in hell is he doing?"

A multitude of people were busy cleaning the street with hushed determination, but amidst them, Raydon's attention was caught by a peculiar figure.

The striking blue hair of this stranger and the upscale clothing he wore stood in stark contrast to the ragged clothing that the other people living in the slum wore. Despite this, there he was, holding a simple brush in his hand and working diligently to sweep the dust off of the cracked and uneven asphalt.

Interestingly, this handsome and regal-looking man was the Demugen family's young master and Raydon's cousin.
