"Astral walk: second stage," I mutter under my breath, the words carrying a weight that resonates within me. As the incantation leaves my lips, I feel a substantial portion of my blood aura deplete, a sacrifice necessary to wield this powerful technique. In an instant, the space around me freezes, including Roth's movements. Time itself seems to hold its breath, awaiting my next move.
A sly grin spreads across my face as I revel in the sheer number of techniques at my disposal. There are so many possibilities, so many paths to explore. With a playful chuckle, I take my time, allowing my mind to rummage through the vast repertoire of my abilities.
"Fufufu... There are just too many techniques, it's almost overwhelming," I muse aloud, my voice laced with amusement. "But fear not, I shall choose wisely."
