After another 2 hours passed by, Alex was at the last stretch of refining the final Soul orb he had gained from this mission.
His current progress was at 99.8%, so with this last orb, he should just barely be pushed over the 100% goal.
And just a few moments later, it was confirmed for him.
[Requirements met, soul core upgraded to D rank.]
In an instant, Alex felt an influx of energy and strength enter his body.
The feeling of ranking up still felt as mystical as every other time, only this time the effect was more substantial.
The higher his soul core reached in the ranks, the more substantial each upgrade would be.
The gap between each rank only widened the higher one went, which was even more notable after one reached B tier.
But that was something Alex had to consider in the future.
For now, he was focused on one thing, and one thing only.
'The Floodgate's activating again!'
