First Steps Toward Hegemony (Not Edited Yet)

Elliot crossed the street calmly, but underneath his calm and composed frame, he was in terrible pain. He could only curse his own stupidity for trying to stop that powerful punch with his kick.

He had not yet seen the result, but he knew that the damage had been considerable, because of the system notification that appeared in his eyes.

[You have acquired the passive skill Resistance to Pain!]

[The passive skill Resistance to Pain has leveled up! Resistance to Pain level 2]

[The passive skill Resistance to Pain has leveled up! Resistance to Pain level 3]

[The passive skill Pain Resistance has been levelled up! Resistance to Pain level 4]

If the skill went up so many levels and he was still sweating from the pain he was feeling, the damage must have been considerable. Despite being in so much pain, Elliot refused to let anyone see the slightest sign of weakness on his part.
