This flashy attempt by Lyra caught the attention of many other hunters present.
As she hovered above the ground, a fireball came flying toward her.
Sensing it just in time, she barely managed to dodge. The hunter who had launched the fireball rose from the ground with a cocky grin.
He said something, but I couldn't make it out due to the overwhelming noise in the arena.
"Wait... I have an idea," I thought as inspiration struck.
I closed my eyes and focused solely on hearing. Seconds passed, but nothing happened. Then, I shifted my approach, tuning into individual voices.
I started with the people nearby, listening closely.
".....has been eliminated."
"Damn it!" I cursed as the announcer's voice broke my concentration.
I tried again, this time more cautious and quicker. After a few minutes, I finally heard a familiar notification.
[Congratulations! You have acquired D-rank skill "Controlled Perception"]
"Now it's good," I said, watching the notification floating before me.
