Unable to think deeper about the purpose of the Virtual Realm, Nash shut down his mind, recovering from the previous battle.
While it didn't cause any damage, it still left him feeling drained.
There was also the corrosion of elements. Nash thought that since it was virtual, he could recover after the battle. Who knew it would still have a lingering effect?
"It should be because the power materializes from my soul," Nash deduced.
It seemed that while the virtual world could simulate everything, the soul, which was its anchor, was still special.

An hour later, after resting to peak condition, Nash opened his eyes.
"There's still some time to fight." Nash thought, eager for another round.
After the condensation of an elemental core, he had a three-hour window to let it settle.
Having only spent over an hour and a half, he could still have one or two battles.
Turning his gaze on the Chronos Arena Panel, Nash finally saw his current ranking.
