Infinite Evolution: My Comprehension Talent is The Strongest Cheat
Chapter 32: Comprehending First Intent

Chapter 32: Comprehending First Intent

Just as Borg was becoming impatient, about to go on the offensive, a small smile formed on Jin’s face.

"So this is Intent."

[Your Understanding is Against Heaven. By observing the flames of the ’Intent of Fire’ for prolonged periods of time, you have comprehended the Intent of Fire to Level 1.]

Intents embodied all sorts of aspects of life and could be just about anything.

Fire. Water. Sword. Table-flip. Wall. Spear.

The possibilities were almost endless.

But no matter the Intent, they were generalized within four categories. These categories, despite not determining how good that specific Intent was, still guided future Evolvers toward the Intent meant for them.

Those categories and their subcategories were:

Combat – Attack, Defense, Blocking, etc.

Auxiliary – Knowledge, Medical, Utility, Passive, Stealth, Crafting, and the like.

Miscellaneous – Wall, Bed, Lamp, and the like would be Intents under this category (essentially the useless kinds of Intents, possessing nowhere near the same level of power as a normal Rank 2 Evolver using an Intent from a different Category).

Then there were |Special Intents|, which incorporated a spectrum that, while not as broad as the previous three, was far more extreme and unique.

Blood, Gravity, Calamity, and the like would be considered |Special Intents|.

The only aspects of existence that couldn’t be incorporated into a beginner matrix like an Intent would be higher concepts such as Space, Time, Karma, and a myriad of other higher universal powers.

In a sense, Intents were the cushion level between basic elemental control that occurred in the 1st Rank and Law Comprehension that happened in the 3rd Rank and above.

Of course, with countless thousands of Evolution Paths to pick and advance in, how those Intents and the like manifested varied.

A current example was Borg, who, alongside the Fire Intent, mained in the |Flame Dominion| Evolution Path.

[Your Understanding is Against Heaven. By observing the flames of a Level 3 |Fire Intent| for prolonged periods of time, you have gleaned into the |Flame Dominion| Evolution Path...]

[You have begun to comprehend the Flame Dominion Evolution Path...]

SHA! SHA!

"Why are you dodging so much!? Coward!"

Borg and Jin had been fighting for roughly half a minute now. Though, instead of fighting, it was more just Borg mindlessly firing off fire spells while Jin jumped around the wide arena ring.

After another half a minute of evading and occasionally deflecting, Jin abruptly stopped moving.

Borg paused before a broad smirk crept up his square-shaped face. "See, was that so hard?? You’ve given up, so take my strongest move! It’ll be your honor!!"

|Inferno Buster|

BA—BOOM!

Thousands of meters of the arena were engulfed by a massive explosion of flames.

"He’s dead for sure," someone in the stands said.

"Finally! This match was getting so boring!"

"Yeah... Wait... What is that...?"

As the smoke and flames cleared on the arena, a solemn silhouette came into view.

The hearts of the millions of spectators stirred as they saw what looked to be... a second user of Fire Intent??

"I thought that Azmodeus guy was only supposed to be in the 12th Level of the 1st Rank?? How is he using Intent!? And it’s not a rudimentary application of Intent either; it’s the fully solidified real deal!"

Azmodeus was the alias he named himself for the League Arena. As a contrast to his ’The Benefactor’ Evolution Path Developers name, it would be impossible for any unrelated person to link the two personas to the same person.

"You!!" Borg’s excitement over finally catching Jin in his attack was brief. Fury quickly consumed him as he burst forward, a trail of fire shooting out behind him.

"You tricked me!!!" he roared, in the process of unleashing two |Flame Busters|.

"Tricked you?" Jin angled his head in bewilderment, unconcerned about the bulky man’s furious blows. "If you’re referring to my Rank, I was and still am in the 1st Rank."

"Liar!!" Borg shouted, unleashing a firestorm of attacks, throwing the whole arena into a sea of flames.

Due to the severity of his attacks, the virtual arena was forced to increase its size, becoming several times larger.

Jin frowned.

"You’re not showing anything new," he said with disappointment. Borg’s flaming attacks, infused with the Intent of Fire, bent around Jin, acting as if they met a higher, impermeable force.

"Why!? Why won’t any of my attacks connect!??" Borg was running low on energy, and due to some reason he couldn’t comprehend, his fire was unable to penetrate the thin barrier of fire that surrounded Jin.

"This is getting boring."

That indifferent remark was followed by an unbelievable scene, as the flames that surrounded Jin condensed into a spear shape. And with one finger flick from Jin, the flaming spear shot forward, blowing away thousands of meters of Borg’s sea of flames.

"!!!"

Before Borg had the chance to react, that flaming spear pierced through his virtual body, reducing him to nothing.

The audience went deathly silent.

Did they just see what they thought they saw...?

"C-Condensation of Intent... It’s actually the Condensation Stage!"
