[Ding! Target has achieved a massive amount of espera, thus breaking through!]
[Target has become a Rank-1 exorcist!]
[Obtaining 10x benefits…]
[Permanent boost in Strength…]
[Permanent boost in [Obtained 10x Espera talent!]
[Host has achieved breakthrough!]
[Rank-1 obtained!]
Suddenly, a rush of espera flooded inside Oliver's body. He felt all the nerves inside his body crackling with joy as the sudden influx of espera filled them.
His entire aura started to transform, more and more espera kept filling his insides. His organs, his brain, his bones, nothing was left untouched.
He showered in espera.
Oliver exhaled, the sensation was too relaxing and comforting.
'So this is how people feel after a breakthrough…'
He could not help but want to indulge in the feeling even more, but sadly, it soon stopped.
He clenched his fist, feeling the force and power behind it. He might even be able to punch a hole through a grown tree as he was now.
There was not a trace of exhaustion present in his eyes anymore. Earlier, he had been drained both physically and mentally in the forest after fighting the twins and the demons. But now he felt as good as new. His strength was replenished, and his body was overflowing with never-before-seen espera.
It was as if he had drunk an elixir.
He calmly looked ahead and viewed his body status. He was sure there were going to be significant improvements now.
___________
[Name: Oliver Mystic]
[Race: Human]
[Status: Rank-1]
[Strength: Level 5]
[Espera: Level 4]
[Charisma: Level 3]
[Luck: Level 2]
____________
'That's such a terrifying improvement!'
He could not help but exclaim. His espera level had directly jumped from one to four in an instant.
He could understand this. He directly obtained 10 times the espera Nadia had.
Like a tsunami, espera flooded out of his body, exuding a strong pressure.
Crack! Crack!
His body stretched as he felt energized like never before.
He had long been waiting to awaken a talent for espera, and now it was finally there.
Nadia managed to break through and become a Rank-1 exorcist.
Which meant that she had a breakthrough in both her physical strength and espera too.
The stirring of espera directly linked to her talent, the system detected it, and he was rewarded with 10x greater talent than her.
Not to mention, now that she was a Rank-1 exorcist, he too became a Rank-1 exorcist.
He already had good strength worthy of a Rank-1 exorcist. He could have been called a Rank-1 exorcist before just with his physical strength, considering he was currently acting as a physical exorcist. For exorcists on that path, their strength was the factor that determined the ranks.
But now he was a full-fledged Rank-1 exorcist after breaking through in his espera level and amount as well!
Not only that, he had obtained around ten times the espera a genius like Nadia would have at Rank-1.
So it could be said that he was a Rank-1 exorcist with around ten times more espera than normal Rank-1 exorcists.
He felt that if he was now faced against the twins once again, he was capable enough to handle them both in a minute without using any of the secret techniques.
He could now also start proper meditations to increase his rank and espera amount on his own.
Earlier, due to his poor espera talent, he was not able to gather or collect the espera present in his surroundings despite clearly seeing them with his special eyes.
But now, he could suck in all the espera in his surroundings into his body with no problem.
It was a great obstacle for him that has now been cleared.
A lot of possibilities had opened up for him now.
[Ding! Cosmic Void Gaze has cleared the conditions for espera. Unlocking Circuit of Abyss]
In the very next instant, he felt every ounce of his strength suddenly leave his body.
'Huh?'
He immediately fell to the ground, his body turning immobile…
Not a second later, a terrible pain shot up from his eyes, slowly traveling through his entire body, consuming everything.
Oliver felt immense pain as he suffered, but he was not even able to scream a word.
'Agh! My eyes! SO PAINFUL!' He screamed internally.
Boom!
Dark clouds instantly gathered in the sky, covering the entirety of the Mystic Purge Clan.
____________
"Meow?"
In his courtyard, the fat clan guardian, who was just chomping on a fish that Oliver had left behind, suddenly jolted.
She furiously turned her head around and almost blinked out toward the courtyard, her speed tremendous.
She gravely looked at the pitch-black clouds, giving an ominous feeling. Her hair stood to no end as she looked at those ominous clouds.
Thump! Thump!
Her heart started to thump wildly as she observed the clouds of void.
They were not normal thunderclouds… she knew it. She was sure of it.
Her expression was grave and serious as she observed the pitch-black cloudy atmosphere that enveloped the entire clan all of a sudden.
She could sense the element of void present all around.
One of the most terrifying elements in existence. It was one of the primordial elements and was extremely rare.
But right now, the entire clan was covered in a blanket of this element.
Her eyes turned sharp as she tried to see through the blanket of clouds but found it impossible.
She was not as strong as she used to be. She could not pierce through it. It was as if all her senses had been absorbed by the clouds.
The sky was so eerie that she could not help but shudder. It was as if the clouds had devoured the sky.
She remembered this ominous feeling… it was the same when she had first found out about the boy.
'What an unpleasant feeling...'
Her heart sank when she realized that something was going on with that boy in the trial.
Without wasting a second, she disappeared from her spot. If she was late, then who knows what would happen.
She had spent a lot of time with Oliver and knew that he was not a bad kid, he was kind and was obedient, although he would occasionally put things in her food, he was a normal child.
She did not what had happened for the sky to turn like this.
She knew if something or someone interfered wrongly, the entire clan could suffer.
This phenomenon was too big and too terrifying. It would inevitably draw the attention of many, not just in the clan but outside too.
Not to mention, the Death Witch was also present in the clan.
The clan guardian could not help but want to curse. She shouldn't have allowed him to participate in the demon hunt.
Things were about to get troublesome.
The cat groaned as a headache came to her.
"Meow…"
If the cloud started to rain, then the clan would suffer irreversible damage.
These were the void clouds, not some normal clouds they could easily remove.
