"I could've finished it earlier, but would it really have mattered? In the end, you were going to give me the same reward anyway. Still, with a proper fight, I could learn more from you." Daniel laughed with a smile on his face.
He was holding himself back. Even though these heroes were truly powerful when they were on his rank, they were nowhere near being actual opponents for him.
On the other hand, he was certain that no matter how fast he won, the reward would be the same in the end. So the best option was to use the fight as a chance to learn from his opponent's experience and combat methods.

And above all, maybe he could find his own weaknesses through this and fix them. Fortunately, it worked—he managed to get the result he was aiming for.
