Sylas could feel his mind expanding.
Usually, when his Stat Limits were forcefully increased due to a Title, he would feel a great amount of pain. But ever since he unlocked the Dual Class Constitution, breaking his Stat Limits had become several times easier, and let alone pain, it actually felt quite good.

Sylas took a breath and exhaled. He had gained more than an extra 200 or so Intelligence. Although his new Skill Progenitor Title came with a +200%, that also had to factor in the original 100% he gained from Skill Savant.
Even so, it was a great boost to him and his Mental overall.
What was most amusing about his stat screen was that he actually had far more Bronze Genes available to him than Common Genes. He had taken his time to max them out, but these days, finding Bronze Genes was actually easier than finding Common ones.
This was just a natural consequence of living on a world with top-tier Bronze potential. Most of the beasts that grew to this point would have Bronze Genes available to him.
If Earth had been a lower-tier Bronze Grade world, Bronze Genes would be much rarer than
The only Genes he had left to max out were Wisdom and Charisma, but they were unfortunately much harder to find in normal beasts. Intelligence, by comparison, was much
Sylas activated in its new form for the first time and felt a deep-rooted
If the original only allowed him better control over his outer flesh, including his muscles, tendons, and ligaments, this version went a layer deeper. From his Aether Pathways to his blood vessels, and even his Genes.
'This feels like the rudimentary form of Extricate, before I gained the ability to manipulate Gene Talents as well. Does that mean that if I manage to improve it further, I'll gain access to deeper levels of control?'
After his time with Nosphaleen, he had realized that there was much more to his body than what was on the surface.
His flesh, related to his Physical Stats, were just the start. A layer deeper were where his Genes resided, and deeper than that was a mesh system where Gene Talents, and there were several more layers deeper than even that.
So long as he continued to progress , one day he was sure to be able to control his body down to the greatest depths.
Finally, he turned his attention to the notifications he had received while his mind was evolving. But what he saw left him without words.
Sylas almost laughed. Almost.
He wasn't very happy with what he was seeing at all. The Quest did specify creating either an FFF- or FFF Grade version of . But he didn't expect to be dinged for going
In the workforce, many jobs didn't like to hire overqualified people because it would usually mean that they were looking for a quick jump-off point. But Sylas could hardly see how that
logic would apply here.
In the end, he chose to comfort himself. After all, it was just a Common Grade Quest anyway. Hopefully, the reward wouldn't have been too great.
But this was a reminder that when the Quest was specific, he should follow it to a tee.
Sylas was about to close the window when there was a sudden flicker. It came not from his notification screen, but rather from the Madness Key.
There was a surge of light from it and he felt a suction force take root.
At that moment, the blaze of flames around him before, the very ones birthed from his Will
that he hadn't noticed earlier.
Suddenly, he recalled a line from earlier.
[You have unlocked your first Progenitor Flame: Progenitor Mastery]
Was this related to that?
This wasn't good. What would it mean for his Progenitor Flame if the Madness Key swallowed
Unfortunately, Sylas could only watch with a frowning expression as it was sucked away.
But then he felt a surge deep within his body.
The Gluttony Seed was surging, its power bubbling forth.
A heart-shuddering aura erupted from Sylas.
