"A new ability?" Acrypha floated next to him as she touched his hand to see what he got.

"Yeah, it didn\'t give me a new ability in a long while. I hope this one is well worth the wait." Talon murmured.

"You have a skill that grants you abilities randomly. If that isn\'t ridiculously strong as it is, I don\'t know what is." Acrypha rolled her eyes.

"Is finding skills that hard? I could easily get a few if I kill monsters now." Talon raised an eyebrow.

"Weak skills are easy to find, that is indeed true. But, what people naturally look for are strong skills. Skills that can boost their strength to new levels. In your case, Dimension Harvester has been giving you really good abilities so far. They aren\'t world-shaking strong, but they definitely added an extra depth to your power." Acrypha explained.

Talon nodded his head in understanding. He knew what she was talking about. So far, Talon had three abilities from Dimension Harvester, they were Spearmanship, Enhanced Focus, and Poison Resistance. All These abilities weren\'t that strong on their own but Talon benefited from them greatly so far.

They weren\'t as destructive as Tear Of Reality, nor did they boost his strength to a ridiculous level like his new class Boundless Breaker.

"Well, I can\'t deny that I needed all three of them in basically all kinds of situations. It\'s as if the skill knows what I would need in the future. But, it never really gave me anything without a trigger for it."

So far, Talon didn\'t receive a single ability from Dimension Harvester without working his ass off for it. He either had to push his limits, or do something that had never been done before to receive a new ability so it was never a \'free ability\' type of deal.

"Of course, the Core Dimension would never grant you strength without a proper trigger for it. So far, you\'ve been continuously pushing your limits so you deserve to get powerful."

"Mmm, and it\'s also because you helped me a lot. I appreciate it very much." He said with a smile on his face as he stared at his beautiful companion.

"I\'m inclined to say \'I barely did anything\'. But, knowing your stubbornness, you would never want to hear that, do you?" She asked.

"Hahaha, you know me well."

"I can\'t deny that. Anyway, open the skill, and let\'s see what you got."

"Ok."

Talon finally shifted his gaze to the holographic window.

[Ding!]

[You have gained the active skill: Azure Flames.]

"Azure Flames?" Talon raised an eyebrow as he read the notification. "I received blue flames?" He looked at Acrypha with a confused look mixed with disappointment.

"No, this isn\'t… normal flames…" She said as she read the name. "Open the description of the ability, I think I know what this is and if I\'m correct, then you\'ve got yourself an extremely useful ability."

"Hmm, ok."

[Azure Flames (Level 1): Weak, dying shards of fire, born from the ashes of the Eternal Flames. They have lost most of their power. Using this ability, you can manipulate Azure Flames and burn the souls of your enemies. Absorbs an extra 1% of stats from your targets.

Flaw: Untamed, violent flames that are extremely hard to control.]

"Oh! Interesting…" Talon rubbed his chin as he read the ability description. He was delightfully surprised when he least expected it.

"As I thought, it is the Azure Flames that I know of," Acrypha said.

"Yeah?"

"They\'re an ancient relic of the past. There isn\'t much known about them. But, one of the strongest clans in the Core Dimension called \'The Eternal Flames\' possessed these flames after the Eternal Flame died. Ever since, they have been the only ones to use its powers. It could be said that it\'s the main reason why they\'re a behemoth in the Core Dimension."

"Oh, that sounds badass. It\'s like a fantasy story." Talon whistled impressively.

The more he heard about the history of the Core Dimension the more it sounded like a fictional story in a book. Yet, everything was as real as it could get.

"So, what does this Azure Flames do?"

"It does function like normal flames. Except, it can also deal soul damage to its targets."

"Oooh, soul damage? Like the one you could get from breaking the Core Dimension\'s rules?" Talon raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, that one. It\'s by far the most effective way of hurting an opponent since many creatures in this world won\'t actually die if you destroy their bodies alone. There are also creatures with no actual physical bodies to target. So, your best chance is to attack their souls as every single being has a soul."

Talon listened carefully to Acrypha\'s words as he noted down everything in his head. He already knew that soul damage was a very bad thing with how much Acrypha was wary of it. So, the fact that he can use it himself now was such a nice addition.

"Though, considering that it\'s still a level 1 ability, it won\'t do much for stronger enemies. But, it could be effective against a group of weaker enemies."

"A weaker group of enemies, huh?" Talon murmured as he thoughtfully shifted his gaze to look at the research center. Slowly, a smile formed on his face.

"Yeah… Definitely sounds like a good idea." He said in a calm tone as an idea slowly formed in his head.

"Come on, give it a try, and let\'s see how it works. But, be careful, the flaw is indeed a real thing. These flames are extremely hard to control even for the Eternal Flames clan, you will have to be careful when you use it or you could damage your own soul instead of your enemies."

"Ugh, I know, I will just make a small ember." He said as he stepped away from Acrypha and stood alone as he extended his hand forward.

"Let\'s see what you got."

Slowly, Talon channeled his Aetheris throughout his body, casting an ethereal glow around him. Then, he looked at the ability and activated it. Almost immediately, he felt a weird sensation in his hand akin to a cold breeze of air.

Then, before he could even react, a small blue flame ignited on the palm of his hand. It had a very distinct bright color and a rather cold sensation on his hand even though it was supposed to be fire.

"Woah, amazing!" Talon murmured as he looked at it. "It looks really beautiful…"

"It is. Its distinct color has its charm. It\'s the most beautiful flames you could see in the Core Dimension actually."

"Wait, there are other types of flames?"

"Obviously, there are a lot. Too many to even count, and they\'re good for offense, defense, blacksmithing, or even healing. The azure flames are one of the best offensive ones that is."

Rubbing the back of his head, Talon nodded his head. "The rabbit hole goes deeper than I expected…"

He only knew of one single type of fire, the one that he used to cook every day. To think that the flames in other dimensions could do things far more advanced than that was very new to him.

"Try to throw that fireball and let\'s see what could happen."

"Hm? Yeah, I was about to." Talon said as he focused on the flames again before he tried to make them fly from the palm of his hand.

He thought that it was the same as the Aetherial Blades in that case. However, what happened was completely out of his expectations.

The fireball suddenly started shaking and flickering in his hand as if it was trying to react to something. Then, out of nowhere, it exploded powerfully.

*BOOOOM*

"Agh!" Talon groaned loudly as he was thrown back a good 5 meters, landing on his back. "Ugh! Fuck! My hand! That hurts!!"

Looking at his hand, he didn\'t notice any burn marks or anything other than some black smoke. He was clearly not burnt, but the pain he felt from his hand at that moment was intense, probably worse than if he was burnt by a normal fire.

Laying there, he held his hand as he heaved up and down to calm himself. Eventually, 30 seconds later, the pain started subsiding slowly and Talon could finally rise up from the ground.

"What the heck… That hurt as hell!" He cursed.

"I told you, it didn\'t burn you, but it gave you a very small soul damage. Luckily, it\'s not anything to worry about. Your soul will recover in a few hours at most." Acrypha said.

"So this is how soul damage feels… Damn, that was brutal!" Talon frowned hard.

Even with his really high pain tolerance, that small hit was really terrible and he didn\'t even know why. He couldn\'t really put into words the pain he felt at that moment and that made it even scarier. He didn\'t even want to know what an actual soul injury would feel like. Just the mere thought of it sent a chill down his spine.

"I see you\'re getting scared," Acrypha commented with an amused smile.

"What?! Ehem, who\'s scared? I\'m not scared. It was just the initial shock. This flame ain\'t nothing!" He said as he extended his hand again.

"Oi…"

"I will learn how to control it properly! Watch!" Talon declared loudly as his determination ignited.

\'I probably should\'ve not joked that way with him… He has a stubbornness I\'ve never seen before.\' Acrypha looked at the young man with a tired expression.
