Cedric advanced to the next round, even though he didn't like how it ended. The mage left after greeting him, and Cedric came eye-to-eye with the archer. He was an elf with an expressionless face, staring at Cedric as if he were a painting.
"How can I help you?" asked Cedric while tilting his head. The archer did not say anything and left, and Cedric shrugged before walking off the stage.
The fight ended in a disappointing fashion, but Cedric could feel the strength residing within him. Once the fight ended, Cedric reviewed his notifications with a sigh.
[Your strength has increased by 1.]
[Your vitality has increased by 1.]
[Your endurance has increased by 1.]
There were no other changes in his stats, but Cedric could not understand if this increase came because of his title or unique physique. Cedric could feel the strength generated from receiving the countless attacks whirling inside his body.
