"As for the other technique, I haven't yet grasped it." Azazel said.
Fein heaved a sigh of relief. If he also manages to learn Falling Scythe, he would suspect that Azazel might have an S-rank talent in martial arts.
"It doesn't matter. Come and show me your progress."
"Okay."
Azazel immediately visualizes the energy in his body. His degu energy instantly flowed from the heart's path into his hands.
If one looks closely, one would see a black mist in both of Azazel's arms.
Kiba and Kate felt a sense of doom when they saw the strange black mist.
"Not enough energy." A strong suction force appeared on Azazel's body.
A strange vortex with different colors was created due to the collision of different energies. And his physical body didn't grow bigger this time because the one that absorbed his energy is the black mist covering his arms that became thicker and thicker as every second passed.
The black mist gradually solidified due to the rich energy that Azazel was providing.
Suddenly, Azazel's expression changed drastically as he felt the energy in his arm start to riot. The atmosphere of depravity and dread poured out from the black mist into the surrounding.
"I can't still control it." Azazel couldn't help but sigh.
He quickly extinguished the energy and deactivated his energy absorption. If he didn't, his arm might get injured and even get extinguished.
The good thing about the falling scythe technique is. The more energy he gives, the sharper it becomes. Not only that, but it can also slow down and give the enemy a debuff which would put them into a state of confusion.
Fein told him that his arms might be able to slice the space one day if given enough energy. The falling scythe technique was really a technique that suited his ability because it maximizes the usage of the energy he absorbed.
And if his mastery increased, the falling scythe would produce different types of abnormal effects that would be detrimental to those who get hit by it.
Just like that, when the black mist thoroughly dissipated in his arms. One could see the black lines pulsing on the skin of it, and it had some black scorch march surrounding it.
'Good... If he succeeds and learned that, he would have another card against me.' Kiba laughed inwardly.
But he still felt a bit sore after he imagined Azazel bragging to him about being able to master Seikone.
"Well, it looks like you are one step closer from grasping it. You only need to master how to blend the energies quickly without them conflicting with each other." Fein offered his insights.
Azazel became thoughtful as he tried to digest what Fein said. 'I can only do that if I reached A rank.'
Now, he realized that he has to set aside the falling scythe technique for now as it seems to have reached a bottleneck. And the next time he would learn it is after he becomes A rank.
"Next." Fein's voice echoed. Then he realized that it was Kiba's turn. So, he looked at him with a weird expression. "Did your balls recover already? You should have used Black Physique to turn your eggs into black metal. Sigh, what a waste of ability utilization. Sometimes, you have to be creative in life."
"...'
Kiba was stunned. No, even Kate and Azazel were speechless.
'I can also use it like that?' Kiba looked dazedly in the air as he realized that Fein had a point.
He didn't really know what to say this time. But now, he finally has a countermeasure when Kate intends to kick his precious balls. At that time, he could boldly tease her without being afraid of her fierce onslaught. Thinking of this, Kiba gave Fein a grateful smile.
Fein nodded at him with deep eyes, yet he has different thoughts running through his mind. 'This bastard is planning something again. Though, I had to create a technique that could boost the defense of my balls to prevent others from taking advantage of this weakness.'
He was not joking with this. After all, in the various novels he has read. Most shameless protagonists and other sadistic female characters always used the anus and balls of men to weaken or paralyze them effectively. And it would work most of the time.
After all, no matter how the defense or how strong your muscles are. The balls can't be trained to bear the same damage as muscles. The same with the anus that you can pierce with any sharp objects and boom.
Yeah, they're shameless and underhanded methods, but some heinous people would use any method as long as it works.
'Damn it, I really have to create something to protect this shit.' Fein couldn't help but sigh.
Such is the ridiculous weakness of the human body. Fein wasn't being paranoid. He's just taking precautions because no matter how ridiculous it sounds, it could still cause his life once exploited.
But that is only if they could outperform him at speed. As long as he has his Ghecko Substitution, he was basically an untouchable existence. Even more, after he was promoted to the S rank realm, which allowed him to use his Ghecko Substitution and abused it to the fullest without worrying about exhausting his degu energy capacity.
After all, the degu energy reserves of an S rank are incomparable to that of an A rank. It's also one of the gaps that the A rank degu user can't bridge. A dozen of A rank won't be able to defeat an S rank.
If Voli ascended to S rank, he might not be able to defeat Azazel because of his energy absorption, but Azazel won't also be able to do something to him.
Just like that, Azazel came back to his place and as Kiba had expected. Azazel gave him a quiet but meaningful glance.
'You only manage to learn one technique and you think you're already something.' Kiba snorted.
Then he turned his head to Fein and nodded slightly. 'It's my turn now right?'
"Yeah, as long as you can perform."
"I can do it just fine." Kiba's eyebrows twitched.
Fein smiled. "Then good luck!"
