"You've felt the aura or rather the domain of an S-rank haven't you?" Duke Runak anxiously asked.
The War God of the Glacial mountains had remained at the peak of A-rank, a half-step into the S-rank for nearly a decade now without any signs of further improvement.
Though his weapon mastery had improved and even diversified he was unable to bridge the gap, to baptise himself and ascend into the legendary S-rank. He longed to join that fabled realm, obsessed with it even. As long as he reached the S-rank all the Duchy's current problems and even some of the Empire's issues would vanish like a puff of smoke. The influence and impact of an S-ranker was just that strong.
Frost internally sighed, thankful that the Duke wasn't asking for Maya's interference. "Yes, I have" he said with a serious countenance causing he Duke to once again visibly tremble in excitement.
