The stress

The red cards, yes. Even if the red cards told me that I don't meet the requirements, that doesn't mean that I can not learn those techniques, right?

Tristan didn't knew what would happen to him if he learned the techniques when he hadn't met the requirements but now was not the time to think twice as he could die the next moment if he didn't use all his trump cards

[ King Fisher legs: this skill involves having invisible legs. One's legs will move like a fish tail in water. This skill is also more about the movement technique in it as it can confused the opponent while allowing the opponent to expose their flaws in their techniques thus allowing the user to use their opponents blackspots to finish them off. Note that this technique requires an agility of 10 points. ]

Tristan decided to chose king Fisher legs, And as for the Buddha hands, it would only put him into more stress because it not only needed one to have 10 points in agility, it also stresses on endurance and stamina. Even if Tristan wanted this skill, he couldn't manage it with his overly weak body.

"Let me try this. I can only depend on myself to survive. There's no one else on this floor other than me. So, I have to watch all angles around me." Tristan talked to himself before he learned the technique. Learning a technique was not that hard and it was quick and on spot, what the user needed to do was simply to hold the red card in their hands and show the willingness to learn.

"That's it!" Tristan could feel the strain that his body was through after he learned the technique. He had not even done anything yet but he could feel as if his muscles could turn into mucus at any moment. His energy was also decreasing as time goes. Tristan characteristics were in a mess because all of them were drained just to fuel this single technique. Tristan felt as if if he didn't do something right now, he would only regret later when his characteristics would turn zero. He didn't knew what would happen at that moment but he was very sure that he would basically become food for the corrupted beasts.

"I have to get out of here and seek for a way home. I can't allow myself to die. I know my mom is waiting." Tristan vowed before he made his move.

"I think I only have five minutes before I would be out of gas." Tristan said to himself after he saw his energy consumption. The technique was the highest consumer of his energy. Tristan needed to use these five minutes effectively so that he could manage to obtain the most of it or even search for another exit and escape from this place before the beasts could rip him apart.

Well, Tristan's speed was twice that of the corrupted beasts after he activated the king Fisher legs skill and with his cleaver drawn, Tristan didn't hesitate to give these beasts what they came here for.

Several claw swipes were thrown his way but Tristan managed to dodge them effectively while retaliating at the same time.

[ A lesser level one corrupted beast killed ]

[ A lesser level 1 corrupted beast killed ]

[ A lesser level 1 corrupted beast killed ]

[ Gained 50 experience points ]

[ Gained 50 experience points ]

[ Gained 50 experience points ]

The notifications rung in Tristan's mind as he butchered the corrupted beasts around him. This speed skill had aided him ultimately and Tristan was having an easy time in killing the corrupted beasts but when one stared at Tristan clearly, they could see that his face was distorted and it doesn't seem that he was happy.
