While the rest of the world was plunged into confusion and overwhelmed by his aura, Rio remained unaware of it all as his entire consciousness was now focused solely on his own ascension.
His body was slowly lifted off the ground by mana and miasma, and a massive cyclone was formed in the blink of an eye!
The Demon King who was standing the closest was the one who felt the most suppressed and overwhelmed by Rio's aura and was forced to retreat far away.
Rio's body was lifted into the air higher and higher until he pierced right through the upper atmosphere!
Finally, amidst the gaze of the endless shining stars and with the cooperation of both mana and miasma along with all elementals in the world, Rio ascension began in full swing!
[Ascending to rank SS…]
[Ding! You have ascended beyond the coils of a mortal shell; your entire body has become more accustomed to the usage of energy down to the very atoms!]
