Supremacy Games

30 minutes later...

Felix had finished the integration smoothly without fainting. The process was painful alright, but 5% was manageable for his pain tolerance. As always, he immediately went for a shower after he was done.

Shortly after...

Felix exited the bathroom and went to get dressed. After putting proper clothes on him, he sat in the bedroom and closed his eyes shut with an eager expression. 'Please be something good.'

The moment Felix dove into his memories and noticed the unlocked information, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in surprise after reading an unfamiliar name for a passive. The other one he already had clue about it.

"Absolute Sand Defence?" Thoughtful, Felix opened his eyes while resting his chin on his hand. He never heard of such a passive before and especially one that had 'absolute' in it.

Felix knew that those abilities were named personally by the Sphinx, and for her to add Absolute in an ability only meant that it was the real deal.

"Let's see if it lives up to its name." Felix closed his eyes again and dove back, wanting to read the rest of the ability's details.

A few moments later, he opened his eyes with clear agitation on them. "Automatic sand defense? This is f*cking nuts!"

Felix might have only seen how the ability worked, but it was enough to blow his mind!

Without a second delay, Felix laid on the bed and requested the Queen to log him in. He was too eager to test out the ability's bold claim!

...

In the Measurement Center, in a VIP room...

Felix had just closed the door behind him before getting greeted by the room's AI. Felix walked to the center of the small white room and requested an Elemental assessment.

Soon the room was split into the same four areas. Felix went to the defensive area where he would be subjected to all kinds of attacks. Whether elemental, physical, or mental.

After standing before a silver machine, that resembled a canon with a screen on top of it, Felix requested, "Please switch to different abilities from different elements periodically."

"Understood." The AI asked, "Do you want to upgrade the strength of the abilities gradually or just fixated on a single level?"

Felix thought about it for a second before choosing the first option. After so, he relaxed his muscles and held his hands behind his back. He looked at the mouth of the canon and smirked, "Fire!"

Whoosh!

Felix narrowed his eyes in focus on the approaching ice spear and simply kept thinking, 'Any moment now, any moment no...F*ck me!'

Alas, by the time Felix realized that something was wrong, the spear was already in front of his face.
