After looking at his total amount of knowledge points and the total amount needed to comprehend the 'Traceless Form Technique' which was a whopping 50,000 Knowledge points, Randy fell into thought.

This amount would almost exhaust a lot of his current total amount of knowledge points, leaving him with only a few thousand.

He would need to decide on what to do with the remaining knowledge point afterward, but for now, he needed to comprehend this technique first.

'Now that I think about it, what is this technique exactly? Based on the name, it sounded like a stealth-type technique. Maybe I should check its description first to be sure.'

With that thought in mind, Randy immediately concentrated and used his mind to select the 'Traceless Form Technique' shown from the drop-down list of techniques.

Immediately afterward, the system notification popped up with a few lines of text containing the information about the technique.

⟪Traceless Form Technique⟫

⟪Rank: S~⟫

⟪Type: Auxiliary Technique⟫

⟪Description: This was a special type of technique created by a mysterious expert renowned in a certain cultivation world for his flawless assassination skills. He specialized in concealing himself, just like a concealed blade, and then striking his enemies before they could even retaliate. Thus earning himself the epithet, 'Traceless Death'. Comprehending and using this technique does not require a specific type of energy compatibility since it is an auxiliary technique⟫

⟪Additional Notice: This auxiliary technique, when executed, completely hides the aura that the user emits. And this technique even helps one with regulating or masking one's breath, thus making it very hard to be discovered by an opponent during a sneak attack. However, bear in mind that it cannot camouflage the user's appearance. Nevertheless, as you grow in strength there is a chance for this technique to develop into a technique capable of camouflaging the user's appearance⟫

"Oh, so that's the kind of technique this is. Although it is a bit of a letdown considering it cost so many knowledge points just to comprehend, yet it can only hide one's aura and breath…?

"

"Wait a second! Aura and breath? If I use this technique along with my Stealth Scales Skill, then wouldn't I become invincible, at least as an assassin?

"

Thinking about this discovery, Randy's emotions instantly surged as he was now filled with some appreciation towards this technique despite its exorbitant cost to comprehend.

After all, earlier when he fought against the sunglasses man and his men, their supporter managed to discover his location despite him using the Stealth Scales Skill to appear imperceptible, thus invisible.

Because he could not mask his aura at the time so he thought that perhaps the other party might have used that to track him or something.

Although he was not sure if that was indeed the case, however, he could not rule out the possibility of that being the reason.

And so, based on this technique's description alone, he could tell that it would solve one of his problems when in the stealth state using his skill.

Even if it might not be useful now, but at least in the future, it might prove to be very helpful when engaged in battle with someone he cannot face head-on.

With that in mind, he immediately glanced at the technique and decided to use the 50,000 knowledge points to comprehend it right away.

The system notification popped up shortly after.

Would you like to spend 50,000 knowledge points to comprehend the technique, 'Traceless Form'?

The system prompted.

"Yes!

" Randy replied almost right away.

Response Acknowledged

Currently comprehending the technique…

After the system stated this, all of a sudden, Randy suddenly felt like more than a thousand characters that gradually formed into words gathered in his mind.

And just like before, when he comprehended the 'Void Rippling Punch', he suddenly felt dazed almost like he had lost consciousness.

Inside his mind, he noticed that knowledge about the technique was now engraved in his mind as if it has been there from the beginning.

At this moment, he felt like even if he wanted to forget the technique, it would be impossible to do so, unless somebody forcefully wipe his memory of the technique.

And with this, he had fully understood the true essence of the 'Traceless Form Technique' and could now execute it as if he had done so many times before.

'This feeling again… It truly is wondrous to comprehend everything without having to practice too much for it.' Randy uttered in his mind shortly after.

Back when he comprehended the low-ranking footwork technique, 'Chasing Tiger Steps', he had to put in a few days of effort to fully comprehend it.

That was because he decided not to waste his knowledge points on low-ranking techniques.

While thinking about this in a daze, the system notification resounded, snapping him back to reality.

You have fully comprehended the technique, 'Traceless Form'

From now on, you can freely utilize this technique without worry. Since it does not cost any energy to execute at the moment

The system then stated after the initial announcement of his comprehension of the technique.

"Alright, now that this is done with, I feel somewhat rest assured towards future battles.

" Randy muttered as he clenched his hand into a fist.

And then he looked at his remaining knowledge points after spending 50,000 of it just now.

⟪Knowledge Points: 3,600⟫

"Hmm… There's still enough to learn other stuff before the excursion to the military base in the Beast Forest. Or maybe I should wait until I am in the training ground at the military base? No, it would be suspicious if I suddenly use a skill or technique that I did not report about having in that place beforehand.

" Randy muttered to himself as he pondered his choices.

"Alright, I will see if I can learn some spell from mom's grimoire and then practice it during the weekends. And then afterward, I can just tell my instructor about it during the trip to the military base. Hm. Then it is decided.

"

Randy decided and he quickly told hold of the grimoire, glancing through the pages.

Shortly after glancing through the spells in the thick blue grimoire that he still had on him, he quickly found a spell that could be learned by him with his remaining knowledge points by checking with the system and then proceeded to learn it right away without hesitation.

With that, Randy had concluded his plan for the rest of the night.

…

And the following day marks the beginning of his weekend of training his newly learned spell and technique.

At this moment, Randy did not bother to enter the virtual world and instead practice his technique and spell inside the gymnasium in the basement of their mansion.

Besides eating, taking a shower, and sleeping for a few hours, he practiced in a trance for the two consecutive days until he was familiar with executing the 'Traceless Form Technique' and casting the spell that he learned from his mother's grimoire.
