1.6 seconds. It was the time it took Tarma to reach Grid with Shadow Shift. After that, Tarma’s dagger stabbed Grid’s shoulder and it took another 0.5 seconds for Grid’s sword to reach Tarma’s body.

Yes, just 2.1 seconds. It was the time it took to defeat Tarma. It broke his previous record of 3 seconds.

Some viewers in South Korea dropped their jokbal on the floor. They were eating spicy jokbal instead of chicken. The viewers and TV commentators belatedly opened their mouths.

『 Skill... Player Grid has acquired a powerful skill. 』

『 Ah...! Yes! C-Correct! That’s right! 』

Most of Grid’s attack skills required the preparatory actions of a ‘sword dance.’ Sometimes it was an advantage, but there were more disadvantages. There were blind spots compared to the immediate skills of the combat specialized classes. It was viewed as Grid’s weak spot. This year’s Grid had overcome his weakness.

『 Player Grid is a hero who captured the Behen Archipelago. He seems to have acquired the strongest skill as a reward from the Behen Archipelago. 』

『 He’s born again as a complete body... 』

Nobody expected that what Grid used to kill Tarma was a ‘basic’ attack. No, they couldn’t even imagine it. People rarely imagined things that broke common sense. The experts interpreted it as Grid acquiring a new ultimate skill. The audience and viewers saw the replay video that was repeated several times and agreed.

『 A quick fire skill boasting a range that even the fastest assassin can’t avoid... Ah! Maybe it’s a black fire dragon...! 』

『 Black fire dragon...? Do you mean the power that Player Lauel mentioned several times? 』

『 Yes, that’s right. Lauel had said it in an interview with various media. The power of a black dragon was sealed in his right hand and he served his master Grid with this power sealed. Maybe Grid has released the seal of that power... 』

『 I think the black fire dragon is a reward from some type of quest. It’s really scary if it’s true... 』

This was an interpretation that started to spread, but few people were concerned about this part. It didn’t matter if it was a black fire dragon or not. Either way, Grid had acquired the ultimate skill. The anticipation towards the battle between Grid and Kraugel increased.

"Player Tarma! Tell me how you feel about being logged out in two seconds!”

"Shut up!”

After the match. Tarma hurriedly came down from the stage like he was ashamed. He was terrified. He feared Grid who disbanded Blood Carnival... The fear that he had forgotten filled Tarma’s body and mind. Tarma’s body was shaking as he rushed to the waiting room. Tarma realized. The fact that the power gap with Grid couldn’t be filled up no matter how he struggled.
