You know, I didn't expect training to master [Absolute Domain] would be so...difficult.

[Incoming, master!] Thana warned me as a slight tingling sensation coursed through my entire body, warning me of an incoming attack.

Moving to the left, I barely dodged Zemmi's bone blade that slammed into the ground, causing a big crater.

"Here's another one!" She shouted, swinging Backbone upward in the air, sending a gust of wind blowing me away.

While I was in the air, I concentrated on trying to fly, however, I tried doing it with [Absolute Domain] as practice. Just by thinking of flying, with the help of [Absolute Domain], I managed to fly in the air without chanting the skill in my mind like I usually did.

"Heh, you're getting better at using [Absolute Domain]," Zemmi smiled. "But that isn't enough to stop me!"

She then jumped in the air and lunged for me. She was so quick that I had to activate [Thought Acceleration] to slow things down to catch my breath. While Zemmi was in the air, in slow motion, I turned to my parallel minds for help.

[Any ideas?] I asked them.

{I'd say use [Gate] and warp her a couple of miles away from us.} Alpha stated.

{I second that motion.} Omega said.

{I-I don't see why not...} Beta timidly said.

{Send her to the ocean instead! It'll be hilarious!} Gamma told me.

Listening to their advice, I decided to use [Gate]. Thinking of the location I want and the portal to open a path, I soon got a [Gate] ready to send Zemmi through.

As time slowly returned to normal, Zemmi soon realized the portal in front of her and tried to change directions, but I kept her in place while she went through the portal. Once she went through, I closed it and took a breath.

That was a bit exhausting.

It's been a couple weeks since I've woken up from my fight with Famine and my trial with the gods. Since then, I've been trying to master [Absolute Domain] since I've finally unlocked its power.

It's actually a lot harder than I thought. Especially in terms of combat. You see, with [Absolute Domain] I'm capable of using any skills in the world from normal skills to special skills.

Not only that, but all I have to do is think of the skill without even chanting out loud or in my head like I used to. However, a couple of skills need a lot of training for me to properly use it. One of them being my [Sword Arts] skill.

Using this skill before [Absolute Domain] was simple enough since my body mostly reacted the way the skill wanted to. However, that's no longer the case with [Absolute Domain]. I actually have to train my body more in order to use the skill better.

This is likely because with [Absolute Domain], all of the skills are merged into my body, making me one of the skills, so to speak. The upside is that with training, I'll be a lot more powerful when using them. The downside is that the training takes a while for me to do that.

[Magic attack, six o'clock!] Thana warned me again, and then that same tingling feeling happened, warning me.

Turning around, I saw a fireball attack coming towards me, so I activated a barrier to block it. The moment the fireball hit, I felt a bit of recoil from the attack, but I managed to block it with my barrier.

I then turned to the source of the barrier and saw Amy, ready to shoot another magic spell at me. I could see her devilish smile as she summoned what appeared to be a fire spear to shoot at me.
