Grid only recently recognized the importance of breathing.It was the type of enlightenment based on the accumulated experience of competing with masters seeking a moment’s gap between breathing in and breathing out.

Grid took only 27 seconds to fuse the two smelted breaths into one.It was the fastest record ever.The time was two seconds faster than Grid’s theoretical maximum speed.It was an achievement that was attained due to the combination of highly developed technology and concentration.

“Sigh.”

Grid, who had held his breath for the sake of smooth movements, finally breathed out.There were goosebumps all over his body and his swollen muscles twitched.

‘This... It is normal to fail.’

In the process of tempering and fusing the two breaths, Grid realized it.The convergence of breath and breath was inherently ‘impossible.’It wasn’t a matter of technique.It was clear that even God Hexetia would fail if he came out to attempt it. This wasn’t a level comparable to a god.

Every one of the breaths with conflicting attributes desperately rejected each other. All the reactions that occurred at this time made the fusing itself impossible.The Red Phoenix’s Breath burned and destroyed itself while the White Tiger’s Breath was firmly entrenched in the ground, so there was no way to try it.It was like a providence that would never change.However—

[The ‘White Tiger’s Breath that has absorbed the Red Phoenix’s’ has been completed!]

Grid succeeded in fusing the two breaths.Was it because Grid’s blacksmithing technique surpassed Hexetia’s technique?Not at all.As mentioned earlier, ‘technique’ didn’t fuse the two breaths. It was impossible.There was only one reason why Grid was successful.

He had the Red Phoenix’s 9th Heart.
