[Castle Bonus---Big thanks to Readable and RolaySalt!! (2/10)]

It was just two words, and it felt like quite a waste of a Fragmented Gene. Sylas had already fallen from nine Fragmented Strength Genes to just six, but the more he stared at the answer, the more he felt that it was appropriate.

There really was nothing else to it. Even if he gathered up all the knowledge in the world, it wouldn't change this answer.

[Why is my A Flexible Will Title ranked above my Madness Conqueror Title?]

[Titles are separated into two forms, Fixed Titles and Growth Titles.

[Fixed Titles only function within one's Grade. Upon promoting from F-Grade to E-Grade, all Fixed Titles will be rendered useless.

[Growth Titles are not restricted by this limitation and there will be a Quest associated with an upgrade. This will be a onetime Quest in most cases, though there are some Titles that will provide an opportunity to secure a weaker Title upon a first failure. There are likewise some rare Quests that might prove an opportunity to upgrade a Title in the future.

[A Flexible Will is a Growth Title and Madness Conqueror is also a Growth Title. However, the evolution branches and potential of A Flexible Will are much higher. It has the potential to be a Legendary Title though it is currently only Common, while Madness Conqueror can only be Gold, though it is currently Silver]

Sylas' brows raised, finally understanding. He should have asked about the Madness Disciples honestly, but this had been really bothering him for a long while.

Even so, he still spent another Fragmented Gene, causing his Strength to fall from 50 to 49.

[Who are the Madness Disciples?]

[The Madness Covenant is a —]

---

The notification glitched.

---

[Question has touched upon a Taboo. Glutton Curse activated. Hunger has increased.]

---

Sylas' eyes narrowed. The timer of <7 days> fell to just <3 days>. He had lost four days because he dared to ask the wrong question? How many other pitfalls like this were there?

---

[The Madness Covenant is a mysterious organization, one shrouded by mystery. Madness Disciples are a contingent of geniuses who have grasped the Madness, but this is only the beginning. For the right to claim a seat at the Altar, they battle across the vastness of the universe,?hoping to one day join this order of madmen]

'The Madness Covenant... Altar...'

It simply didn't matter.

He shot out of the water so fast that he appeared almost a meter above the surface before he started falling back down. But by this point, he had already reached near the shore.

His eyes landed on the sheer number of beasts in the surroundings and he made a break for it.

...

Sylas took a breath and exhaled, pressing his wet back against a tree.

Seeing the scene around the dungeon, he knew he made the right decision to enter it when he did.

Now that the dungeon had been cleared, though, the Aether would slowly disperse and this region should go back to normal with time.

'I received a notification earlier,' Sylas thought, suddenly remembering.

He used his intention to check on it.

[Quest Received]

[Plight of Casstle Main (Bronze)]

---

'Two s's?' Sylas raised an eyebrow, but didn't put too much stock in it. There could be any number of reasons why it was like this.

---

[Rudimentary Village <Casstle Main> is recruiting temporary adventurers from the surroundings to wage war. As the first established city of the Seventh Summoned Ascension, its status is special and the opportunities are plentiful]
