Floating Island - Triple S Talent

"Sorry, I made you have a nightmare," Lein said sincerely, though there was a hint of guilt behind his smile. He knew, testing such a terrifying new ability on a Tier-1 being like Ana might have been excessive.

Ana was silent for a moment, her heart gradually calming, feeling like a cool breeze in the middle of a serene night. Her previously tense face began to soften, and a small smile appeared on her lips. As if everything she experienced was merely an illusion that had now faded.

"Ah, it's all right, Master," Ana replied with an embarrassed smile.

Certainly, many questions swirled in her mind, but she chose to hold them back. The important thing was that she was still alive and breathing.

Lein nodded gently, then gestured for the other soldiers to return to their posts. After everyone dispersed, he sat back down calmly and formed a spatial seal around himself, concealing his presence from others.

"Amazing… so, is Grandmaster my limit?" Lein murmured, his eyes gleaming with curiosity.

The divine promotion potion he possessed could help him reach levels below Emperor without any issues. This meant that no matter how many stages lay before Emperor, he could break through them easily.

Carefully, he reached into his spatial ring, pulling out a small bottle filled with shimmering liquid. The liquid reflected a soft glow, like tiny stars shining in the darkness. Lein opened the cap of the divine promotion potion, gazing at it briefly before deciding to drink it.

As the cool liquid slid down his throat, a refreshing sensation filled his body, followed by a sweet taste that burst delicately in his mouth. It tasted like star candy, stirring every sense with an exquisite flavor. Lein closed his eyes, savoring every drop of the potion until not a single drop was left in the bottle.

He waited, feeling the energy slowly flowing through his body, as if his body was being filled with light.

"Ah, delicious,"

Lein whispered, letting out a satisfied sigh. He waited for a moment, allowing the effects of the promotion potion to work in silence. Soon after, a soft blue glow appeared before him—a notification display popped up, just as he expected.

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 101. Attribute Points +10,000]

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 102. Attribute Points +10,000]

…

"Ten thousand at once!" Lein murmured, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

A broad smile spread across his face as he enjoyed each notification, one after another, displaying his rising attributes. Deep down, he felt both satisfaction and amazement at how effortless this journey was for him. With a wry smile, he mused at the sheer amount of experience required for each level— even an unlimited Tier-5 exp bottle wouldn't be enough.

"While others are busy hunting monsters, I can sit back and level up without any effort," he muttered, his tone laced with irony.

Mixed feelings brewed within him—on one hand, he felt lucky to possess an extremely rare (SSS-ranked infinity duplicate) ability, but on the other hand, this ease felt almost unfair.

Lein reflected for a moment, lowering his head with a faint, bittersweet smile. "It's unfair, isn't it," he whispered softly, as if hiding a burden.

But he couldn't deny it; a sense of happiness still filled his heart. As the owner of such an extraordinary power, he would surely make the most of his potential. A slightly unfamiliar, emotional feeling welled up within him—perhaps because it was the first time he had experienced such a rapid surge of power.

Shrugging off those thoughts, Lein shook his head, trying to dispel the distractions. His gaze returned to the notifications that continued to appear.

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 149. Attribute Points +10,000]

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 150. Attribute Points +150,000]

…

He paused, his eyes fixed on the level 150 notification. "One hundred fifty thousand attribute points?" he murmured, eyebrows raised.

A mix of excitement and confusion swept over him—thrilled by the vast number of attribute points, yet startled by the unexpected figure. Unlike the previous levels, which had provided a consistent number of attribute points, this time, a massive jump had appeared out of nowhere.

Lein could only accept this reality with a slight nod. He continued to focus on the notification panel, while his heart and mind adjusted to the new strength that kept flowing into his body.

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 199. Attribute Points +10,000]

[Congratulations! Sovereign level increased. Level 200. Attribute Points +200,000]

…

Lein's expression showed a subtle shock he couldn't hide. He blinked, entranced by the numbers on the notification panel—not just 150,000 anymore, but now surging to 200,000 attribute points.

"Does every 50-level increase yield 10,000 times the level value?" Lein murmured, attempting to analyze the possible pattern. His mind began calculating, absorbing the logic behind these increases.

He took a deep breath, contemplating what he had just received. "At level 150, I got 150,000 points, meaning 150 times 10,000. And now at level 200, I've received a full 200,000 points… impressive." Lein spoke quietly, his eyes shining with excitement. "So, if I reach level 250, will I get 250,000 points?"

Smiling and raising an eyebrow, Lein felt confident in his hypothesis. Even if his calculation wasn't exact, the 400,000 points gained from levels 150 and 200 was already enough to satisfy him. His eyes refocused on the notification panel, enjoying every level increase with undiminished intensity.

The panel continued to display a stream of numbers that seemed to fill the screen endlessly. As he watched, Lein felt his body growing fuller with energy, as though each notification was a heartbeat strengthening his entire being.
