As the first rays of dawn slipped through the castle windows, casting a soft, golden glow over the quiet room, Adrian stretched, feeling yesterday’s tranquility still lingering.
It was as if the warmth of that peaceful day had seeped into his bones—a reminder of what he fought so hard to protect.
Smiling, he rose and prepared himself for the day ahead, savoring the memory of that rare, restful break.
By the time he reached the dining hall, the ladies were already gathered, laughter filling the space and bringing a warm, vibrant energy to the room.
Breakfast was a lively affair, each of them chatting and laughing in a way that reminded Adrian of just how close they had all become.
After the meal, Adrian leaned forward, resting his arms on the table. “Alright,” he said with a hint of excitement in his voice.
“Today’s the day for the level resets. Have you all rested adequately? Where should we perform the resets? Guest room? Training hall?”
The women exchanged glances, their eyes bright with anticipation. Isabella was the first to speak up, tilting her head with a slight smile.
“Adrian, we already have already discussed it. We’d like to do the reset in your room.”
Rosalyn nodded, her gaze warm. “It’s where we can relax completely, physically and mentally. Plus, it just feel, right.”
A bit surprised by their request, Adrian shook his head with a wry smile.
“Alright, if that’s what my beauties prefer then so be it. I’ll meet you all there in a few minutes.”
The ladies dispersed to prepare, each of them eager for the next step in their training.
Adrian shared their excitement, knowing this reset would help unlock even more potential within each of them, granting them a new edge in strength and skill.
Once they’d gathered in his room, Adrian gestured for Eve to step forward.
She was the lowest level among them, and he wanted to start with her to ensure everything would go smoothly.
Eve’s wide eyes sparkled with determination as she moved to the center of the room.
“Ready, Eve?” Adrian asked.
She nodded, her expression a mix of nerves and excitement. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveIＦire.net
With a focused thought, Adrian activated his system, requesting it to initiate the reset process for Eve. A screen appeared in his field of vision, displaying an unexpected offer:
“Host, available today is the Level Reset Package, which 100% guarantees the safety of the individual during the reset. Not only that, buy right now and your ladies will be able to keep all the points of one particular attribute intact. Drawback is, particular attribute will grow at half the speed of other attributes until they surpass their original level.”
His eyebrows lifted in surprise. This was an incredible offer—not only would it ensure Eve’s and others safety, but it would allow her to keep all the points of one particular attribute intact.
The only trade-off was that the preserved stat would grow at half the normal rate until she surpassed her original level, which was not even a drawback if thought carefully.
Even if the speed of attribute points gain was halved, more points were still added to the original total.
Heart racing at the value of this opportunity, Adrian confirmed the purchase with his Seduction Points.
His SP had been accumulating due to nightly exercises during his almost one year stay at the training chamber. So, he didn't feel much while spending such huge amount.
As soon as he did, the system activated the reset package, a wave of energy enveloping Eve. Adrian watched as she closed her eyes, letting herself sink into the reset’s energy flow.
The room was bathed in a soft, golden glow as the process began, a cocoon of energy gently wrapping around her.
The system prompted Adrian to select an attribute to preserve. He asked Eve,"Which attribute points would she like to have intact?"
Eve, promptly replied," I can keep one of my attribute intact? If, so then. please keep my intelligence attribute.|
The reset process worked like a magical detoxification, cleansing her system of accumulated fatigue and pent-up energy from previous levels.
He could see the faint shimmer of mana outlining her form, enhancing her connection with her inner core.
The cocoon pulsed rhythmically, each pulse releasing another layer of stress and resistance.
Minutes passed as Adrian observed Eve’s body relax further, her breathing deep and steady. The energy around her pulsed with a soothing rhythm, radiating warmth.
Finally, the cocoon’s glow began to fade, settling into her as the reset completed. Eve’s eyes fluttered open, blinking a little dazed but visibly rejuvenated, her cheeks glowing with newfound vitality.
“How do you feel?” Adrian asked, smiling.
Eve’s eyes lit up. “I don't know how to describe it. I feel weak, at the same time, I also feel energized?"
He then explained how her Intelligence stat had been preserved and mentioned the minor drawback to its growth rate, to which Eve nodded, beaming.
“That’s amazing. Not only I can keep my original stat, I can also add on to it. You are amazing Adrian. Thank you.”
The others, who had been watching closely, now seemed even more eager. Seeing Eve’s smooth transition through the reset process reassured them, and Adrian could feel their anticipation building.
“Alright, I guess Sophia is next huh?” Adrian asked, his gaze sweeping over the group.
Sophia stepped forward, her characteristic composure softened by a spark of excitement.
Despite her usual calm, Adrian could see the eagerness in her eyes. She was, after all, a warrior at heart, and any edge in strength was something she valued.
He guided her to the center of the room and initiated the same procedure. The system once again offered the Level Reset Package, and Adrian accepted, asking Sophia which attribute she’d prefer to preserve.
Sophia considered the question for a moment before replying, “Strength, of course. That’s what defined me as a Dual-Blade Master. I would like to walk on similar path once again.”
Nodding, Adrian selected Strength. As before, a protective cocoon of energy enveloped Sophia, pulsing with a powerful, vibrant glow.
The process was similar to Eve’s, the cocoon acting as a magical cleansing wave, washing away the accumulated fatigue from her previous levels while stabilizing her core.
As the cocoon faded and her reset completed, Sophia took a deep breath, her gaze now more intense and grounded.
She flexed her fingers, testing her renewed strength. “It’s incredible. I can feel how much lighter I am now. I also feel weak and fragile yet somehow not uncomfortable,” she murmured, looking at Adrian with a fierce smile.
