239 Wings of Icarus
The wind-thunder ball finally came and enveloped Azazel’s entirety.
Azazel didn’t feel any pain at all. Contrary to it, he felt almost as if he was bathing in the spring. His cells started to operate at a higher level. His degu energy was filled to the brim again and his body started to grow stronger every second.
AHHH!
Azazel moaned at the pleasure of the feeling of getting stronger.
“This...” The three observers on the sidelines looked at the unbelievable scene in front of them.
“This is the side effect of his power. It pleasures the user because of the fast growth of power he receives. Although it’s just temporary.” Ceterus sighed helplessly.
Fein decided to use his probe to see the change in detail.
“Damn, he became A in no time!”

“What A?” Gregory couldn’t help but ask.
Fein took a deep breath. “His body is growing stronger really fast.” He paused a little to gather his thoughts. “His strength, agility, and endurance... The thing is, it was still going. At this rate, he might reach S rank in all the stats in time.”
“Hey, I think he might explode if he comes past that His body may not be able to handle it. Look at his fucking size!” Anthony pointed at Azazel.
“Indeed.” Ceterus calmly said. He paused for a little and said. “His ability can only absorb triple the amount of his degu energy. If he was A-rank, his body alone might be able to reach S rank peak. But he’s only a B rank now.”
Fein shook his head. “That might be the case, but I think there’s a way to eliminate that weakness.”
“How so?” Anthony raised his eyebrow.
Gregory and Ceterus turned their heads at Fein with curiosity.
“I think Azazel has already thought it. That’s why he confidently faced the attack.”
The wind-lightning ball started to shrink visibly after two minutes passed and it continues to do so.
Azazel had already become a forty-meter giant, and the muscles in every part of his body were bulging yet compact.
‘Shit, if this keeps going, my body would collapse. I hope my gamble would succeed.’ Anthony looked at his well-defined muscles full of explosiveness.
Then he concentrated on his back and channeled his energy into it with focus.
‘Damn, it’s too hard to control a large amount of energy. Fuck it!’ Anthony gritted his teeth.
In reality, his energy control wasn’t bad as he can spread it to cover his whole. He might not be at the level where he can use advanced degu techniques, but it’s sufficient to surpass his peers.
“He’s doing it now, but as you can see, it needs a lot of control,” Fein explained.
The three nodded as they saw a yellow light started to form at the back of Azazel.
Ceterus touched his chin in contemplation and said. “It’s a life and death situation for him. It might help him to breakthrough due to pressure.”
“Yeah, people always untapped their hidden potential when their life was on the lines,” Gregory added.
‘Probe!’ Fein launched his ability.

‘His speed had already reached S realm so fast...’
Another minute passed. Azazel’s body almost became blue and his blood vessels were visible and red due to too much pressure. The wind-lightning energy had shrunk to three meters from its original size.
On Azazel’s back, one could see golden wings made out of pure energy that illuminated the entire area.
Azazel had successfully redirected the excess energy and made wings out of it so his body won’t explode. Now his body had reached S stats in all aspects. It’s a pity that he can’t convert the energy absorbed into degu energy or else he might also reach S-rank on it.
Voli looked at his attack, which continued to get smaller until it disappeared from his sight. ‘He didn’t explode?’
On the sidelines, Gregory and Anthony looked at Fein with an inquiry.
“That’s what you’re talking about?”
“Yes, since his body can’t absorb too much energy, why not use it to make other mediums such as weapons or any items as long as it helps him use the excess energy that would prevent his body from exploding...”
“That makes sense...” Gregory stared at the further battlefield and said. “This is getting interesting.”
Fein launched his probe again and saw that all stats had reached S rank.

...
“It’s my finally my fucking turn.” Azazel came back to his normal size as he compressed all the energy he absorbed evenly into his cells.
Azazel’s size might have decreased, but his power was more explosive and lethal than before. He glanced at the dazzling wings on his back.
He cannot really use it to fly, but he can feel that he can accelerate instantly through the use of it.
Voli became vigilant, then his feet lighted up in an instant and lightning flowed through them.
“Now, it’s speed vs speed.” A devilish smirk made its way to Azazel’s face. Then he looked at Kate’s blurry silhouette and said.
“It’s okay, you can rest.”
Just as he said this, Kate appeared. She collapsed to the ground in an instant due to degu poisoning after her degu reserves were drained.
“Cough, Cough...” Kiba, who was lying unconscious, woke up and looked around him in confusion. Then, when he saw Azazel’s form, he remembered what had happened. “Bastard, at least let me use my Fiery Domain!”
“Idiot, you are low in degu energy.” Kate sighed as she lay beside him to recuperate.
