— Frey Starlight's Pov —
The first day back at the temple since my return…
I was a full month behind the others in training.
And not only that—I'd be facing upper-year students in an exam I knew nothing about.
I needed to finalize my preparations for the Victoriad…
And I seriously started to question whether I had enough.
The skills I had stored until now—
Phantom Steps
Hawk Eyes
Ascension
Ignition…
These were all meant to help me deal with the protagonist, Snow.
Except for Ignition. I was hesitant to use it at first because of its overwhelming power—and the severe side effects.
I really began to wonder if the other skills would be enough.
I had no time left to try and obtain another one.
So I had no choice but to rely on these skills, along with my Ten Thousand Steps of Shadow technique.
That was all I could count on—for now. The mysterious ability I had received from the system still remained inactive:
Shadow Adaptation: 0/7…
