[Option 1: Fortune Piou- A piou that can instinctively select the best option when faced with a choice.]
[Option 2: Favored Piou - A piou with the ability to subtly improve the outcomes of its decisions.]
Sora noticed that both options seemed to be influenced by Hiyoko’s special ability, Intuition—an ability she hadn’t possessed initially and that had seemingly appeared from nowhere. As he examined both options, he saw ...

Sora watched, holding his breath, as Netsu’s power surged. Flames roared around him, growing more intense with every passing instant. The fire elements in the battlefield were drawn to him, feeding his strength, until the heat rose to an almost unbearable level.
‘He’s using that skill… To think he’d go this far in less than two weeks after being born. Hiyoko really has it easy,’ Sora thought, his chest tightening at the sight of his familiar pushing himself so ...

The moment the fight began, it was as if we had all reached an unspoken agreement—each of us locking onto an opponent and diving into battle without hesitation.
I recalled Master’s advice about fighting smart, using strategy to gain the upper hand. But as I faced the Dark Phoenix before me, all those thoughts vanished. The only thing I cared about was proving who was superior.
Judging by my opponent's movements, he probably felt the same.
I led him away from the other du...

[Klunor Sapher - Level 135]
Standing before him was Klunor Sapher, the Dark Elf general Sora had faced in the war in Sweden. Back then, he had been Level 127, meaning he had gained eight levels in just the past month.
He remembered the Dark Elf’s words before he raised the White Flag to surrender... In his own way, it seemed he had warned Sora that this world was not what it appeared to be. Despite being on opposite sides, Sora had a good impression of the man

Looking at Netsu, Sora's eyes were full of pride. The phoenix was growing fast, and his stats were becoming more impressive with each day. Sora spent the following days training Netsu, who instinctively learned skills that seemed aligned with his natural path as his level increased and growth reached certain milestones.
As Sora helped boost Netsu’s intelligence, the phoenix became more creative and eager to learn things, so Sora taught him extensively through the [Train]

Sora's damaged body was rapidly healing, and he felt his strength returning to normal. The technique had put an enormous strain on his body, but his [Adaptive Regeneration] ensured that he could recover quickly and build resistance to such damage in the future.
At the same time, he could sense his power increasing through [Mana Growth] and [Strength Ascension].
He looked at the skill that allowed all of this.

Emily stopped looking around and stared at Sora with arrogance. "Who do you take me for? If I have time to babysit you, it’s because I don’t need anyone to test me. Do you really think there are many people in South Korea who can hold a candle to me?"
She laughed, happy, before leading them to see the results of their guildmates' qualifiers. Sora shook his head at her antics, thinking, 'She's so childish.'

Sora asked, "Experimentation? What did they do?"
Emily sighed. "After the world update, people everywhere tried to create their own skills. Thousands died in South Korea alone from trying to manipulate raw mana. Creating skills without help was impossible. But some succeeded, creating skills like [Meditate] which did not need mana to create, which were then shared with the world. Those were the individuals who experimented on their own, pushing the limits of what w...

Sora watched as the group approached, his attention immediately locking onto the imposing figure leading them.
Standing over two meters tall and nearly as wide, the man’s bald head shone under the light. His tanned skin, rugged features, and name suggested a Mongolian origin. Dressed in dark combat gear, he moved with confidence, a massive sword strapped to his back.
Sora’s eyes flicked to the name floating above his head:
[ARAM] [Ganbold] - Level 148.

Sora stood up and stepped outside to breathe in some fresh air. Training indoors hadn’t been the best idea at all.
He spotted Kara sitting on a sofa near a small lake, quietly immersed in her training. Smiling at the unusual sight, he walked over to her, noting that she didn’t react as he approached. Laying down his carpet, he closed his eyes and began to relax. A few moments later, Kara opened her eyes.

Fifteen minutes later, Sora sat in a corner, watching as Kara lay on the floor, exhausted. She had been mercilessly beaten by their new "boss," her body now refusing to move. Sora had endured it first, taking a brutal beating just minutes before Emily shifted her focus to Kara. For ten long minutes, Kara had been pushed far beyond her limits.

Alius felt the dense weight of the mana he had used to extract the Soul Power. It was far heavier than any regular mana, and he quickly realized he had reached a limit. Each bit of Soul Power he absorbed freed an equal amount of that energy, but trying to hold more seemed impossible—its potency was simply too great, its weight too much for him to carry.
"This probably isn’t how Soul Power is meant to be handled," Alius mused to himself, "but it’s the only method I have right now."...
