Asai, exhausted, fatiqued and debilitated. Dropped to his knees. His forearm muscles gave up on him, relinquishing his two blades. His mana reserves had bottomed out.

[Asai: Lvl 51 (Berserk)]

"Ah, man... Baron Bralcom can go fuck himself." Out of energy, he fell face forward into the ground and fainted. The halo, the horns and the wings sizzled out. Without mana, they couldn't maintain their physical form.

The surrounding pools of water, debris, books and fire faded out of existence. 

The [Blood Tyrant]'s body parted into millions of black particles and was gently swept away by the breeze, returning to the heavens. Back into the arms of Craut.

In place of its body, a small treasure box appeared. Its contents, a note that read 

"A gift, for the brave and crazy."

Under the note were two neatly placed karambits. The grips were black, whilst the blade was golden. Perhaps one would think of a sabretooth tiger's teeth or a golden dragon's claw, upon seeing them.

Asai had cheated death today. Ignoring the rules of the world, violating its dimensions through sheer willpower. Borrowing the power of a future, older self. Asai's soul managed to temporarily ignore the level 50 block and obtain the new skill [Death Call] and with every muscle, every intent and willpower he could muster to destroy his foe.

He had miraculously figured out how to cast [Double Psychic Phantom] Something Kozumi was originally planning to teach him once he managed to control his mana better.

In the heavens above, Craut noticed this anomaly. To ensure he couldn't cheat death a second time, he enforced the laws of the world. No outside interference shall occur again. Whatever and whoever's soul now dwelled within that man's body is permanent.

Satisfied with his work, he turned his glance back towards the far north. Where a war waging between his two favourite races was ravaging the lands.

The Dekans and the Dhans.

P.S

The level 50 skill was [Death Call]

[Double Psychic Phantom] evolved because of knowledge, skill and ability.

I was hinting at it before with Mel trying to dual wield, and how Asai found that interesting, trying to do so himself. Which lead him to trying to cast [Psychic Phantom] with both hands at the same time.

MY bad, I probably should've made it clearer.
