Chapter 2 - Road to the Strongest

After testing his new abilities all night Falco realized it takes massive energy to keep using Dimension Move. He went to an open field and tested his Dimension Gate and quickly realized it led to a ruin. He peaked his head through and deemed it safe before walking into it and closing behind him.

He walked 100 feet before encountering another peculiar smell but this was different from the last flower he had absorbed. Sprinting full speed toward the smell he thought excitedly "maybe ill get another flower that will increase my rank again". After turning the corner his face went pale as he saw the flower but it was being guarded by a beast with a sharp tail wolf-like body and steel fur.

He turned to run, but realized he was too slow as the wolf-like beast lunged at him and was about to clear his head from his body. Without a second thought he used Dimension Move and dodged the strike. "i can't outrun it and i can't keep up using Dimension Move my only hope is that flower giving me some sort of boost". As the beast lunged toward him again he used Dimension Move to get to the flower and used it again to get back to where he spawned the gate. As he was opening another Dimension gate he realized the beast had wings and was flying toward him fast. Without a second thought he dove through the gate and closed it immediately holding onto the flower.

Falco laughed to himself while holding the flower and watched it melt in his hands. This flower was different as it made his body feel cold and he shivered. The feelings quickly subsided and Falco checked his status again. He was disappointed to find he had not ranked up in the slightest. He was then shocked to see he had more abilities.

Falco was taken aback by the appearance of 2 new abilities but was soon happy and thought "This is just as good as a rank up, but i wonder what these new abilities will be like". He tried using soul summon but heard a voice say "Requirements not met must have a dead soul nearby". Then trying regenerate he realized his body pain was slowly going away. "a healing talent that will come in handy when I'm in the ruins.

Falco looked back at where he had closed the gate and vowed that one day he would take down that beast then used Dimension Move to go back home.
