Synopsis

The chapter begins with the protagonist receiving a lesson on complex mana injection, experiencing the power of a connection with a sword master. He then faces a challenging and seemingly overpowered opponent, leading to a display of his limitations in swordsmanship. During the intense battle, the protagonist activates a skill that decreases damage taken and another 'authority' skill that recovers his stats and weakens his opponent. Despite the odds, the chapter concludes with the protagonist displaying a fighting spirit, using another authority skill.
