Kyle immediately started learning everything there was to know about all the Rank A Materials.
He knew that would take a long time, but oh well.
Becoming more powerful wasn't easy.
One person could only understand so many things in a limited time.
The road to power needed a lot more effort than it needed talent.
Kyle was quite talented in some things, but all of that talent would be worthless without hard and constant work.
One could be athletically gifted, but without actually doing sports, one would never be able to compete in a proper sports competition.
Kyle only had such immense power because of all his risks, investments, and work.
Without all his True Battles, his Momentum wouldn't be this powerful. One didn't need talent to seek out a dangerous fight.
Without his literal years of looking at boring rocks, he wouldn't have his Material Fragments.
Without his years of learning how to make money, he wouldn't have had the resources to support his growth.
Without his years of learning about techniques and Spells, he wouldn't have been able to create any Methods.
Without his years of refining and perfecting his Methods, they wouldn't have their current power.
Work and discipline.
Of course, luck was also a factor.
For example, the fact that he had gotten his job as Enforcer Trainee and got the Predator's Being was purely luck.
But what was the use of that without all this work?
Great, he could tell when danger was near, but that wasn't very useful to a normal human who came face to face with a lion.
They would just know that they would soon die a couple of seconds earlier than normal humans.
One also needed the power to fight back and actually make use of this advantage.
Of course, there was also Kyle's Aristocrat's Body, but if he hadn't risked his life, he wouldn't have that either.
He would just be one of the many skeletons in Theodor's Inheritance Crypt.
Did it suck that Kyle had to spend years in isolation, looking at funny metal rocks?
Yes, it sucked a lot.
It was not fun.
If his power didn't increase as a result, he would never spend his time like this.
Just like how people wouldn't do a job without payment.
Can a job be fun?
Yes.
But was it so fun that one would do it for free?
Very likely not.
As Kyle looked at the materials, time started to pass.
Understanding Rank A Materials was much harder than understanding Rank B Materials.
Shocker.
However, there was one thing that made it much easier for him to learn about these materials than for others.
He had used his brain a lot in the past ten years.
If Kyle had started comprehending his first Fragment with his current power, he would have understood it several times faster than he did back then.
Yet, comprehending the Rank B Metal Material Fragment would have taken much longer.
After all, he wouldn't have had as much practice in understanding difficult things that required the use of all of his brain.
Time passed while Kyle was busy comprehending the Rank A Materials.
