The ritual can be disrupted. Whether it’s the arcane knowledge Jason had learned, or the arcane knowledge he’d come across, they both definitively stated this fact. But, how should it be disrupted? Disrupting the ritual isn’t a reckless act, but requires an appropriate method. Therefore, once Jason confirmed that ’Edward’ was conducting a ’ritual’, he had been thinking hard. After all, if you disrupt the ritual correctly, it will immediately backlash against the conductor." But what if it’s disrupted incorrectly? Those who disrupt the ritual will face unimaginable consequences. Moreover, some consequences are irreversible. This, naturally, was also ’Edward’s’ doing. However, "Edward’s" contributions weren’t limited to just these. [Ritual conversion, Barehanded Combat upgraded to Master Level!] [Barehanded Combat (Master): Your body itself is a powerful weapon, and you are a master of it, not only relying on punches and kicks, but your entire body is a lethal weapon; Effect: Constitution, Strength, Agility +0.3 (Proficiency, Expert, Master +0.1)] [Barehanded Combat upgraded to Proficiency Level, unlocked inherent Talent option: Well-Trained] [Barehanded Combat upgraded to Master Level, unlocked inherent Talent option: Danger Instinct] [Well-Trained (Passive): Extensive combat training has granted you this talent. When faced with unexpected combat, long-term training allows you to adapt more quickly to sudden situations.] [Danger Instinct: Long-term training and constant battling have honed your sense of danger to an extreme, Effect: Perception +0.5] The next moment, a textual prompt appeared in front of Jason’s eyes. The skill [Barehanded Combat] was upgraded directly from Expert to Master level, incrementing Constitution, Strength, and Agility by another +0.1 each. But what surprised Jason the most was that the Master level also came with its inherent talent options. The newly emerged [Danger Instinct] in particular added a full 0.5 to his perception. At this moment, Jason’s attributes were updated to: Strength 3.8, Agility 3.6, Constitution 4.5, Spirit 2.6, Perception 6.2. Feeling the harmony between the knowledge in his mind and his body, Jason squeezed his fist, feeling the changes at that moment. The changes to his body were minor, but those to his perception were extremely noticeable. The latter even influenced the former. Keen perception allowed Jason to better control changes in himself.
