Chapter 1022: A Higher Realm



As Valyr accepted the prompt that appeared before him, it did not take long for the system to respond in return, sending wave after wave of strength to course throughout the young man's body.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Feeling his strength swiftly soar to greater heights, Valyr adorned a faint smile on his face as he felt like he had the strength to make even mountains move with just a single push.

At the same time, he felt like he had the wisdom and intelligence to comprehend anything and everything within his surroundings, causing him to briefly ponder as to whether he could be considered a sage with how much intelligence he had.

Fortunately, such sensations did not last for long as the system returned him back to reality. Ding!

Hearing the series of notification sounds resounding in his mind, it was as if a switch had been flicked up in the young man's mind, causing him to close his eyes for a bit as he took in a few deep breaths.

Then, feeling like he'd fully adjusted to his current situation, the young man faintly let out a sigh of relief before proceeding to stand up from the bed once more.

Moving similarly to how he did just when he'd finished ascending to Rank 4, Valyr gave himself more than enough time to adjust to his current strength, taking over 10 minutes or so to acclimate to his newfound situation.

"Time to take a look at the changes." Inwardly nodding in satisfaction, the young man continued to do a few basic combat movements as he commanded the system to bring up his notification screen.

Ding!

[Would you like to ascend?]

"So basically, I've gained a Growth-type title," said the young man to himself, feeling like it was the most apt description for the title he'd gained.

After all, just like the title mentioned, its effects would grow stronger as long as he increased the number of beings that were connected to his current species.

"Then again, the possibility of other people wielding Prime Azure Energy is incredibly low," said Valyr to himself as he reminded himself of how difficult it was to form the energy in the

first place.

"Yeah, I'll just consider the title as an afterthought."

Though looking at the title in that manner did cause the young man a bit of pain, that pain gradually began to subside after he took the time to calm his emotions.

Then, discarding all of the random and errant thoughts that were in his mind, it was only then did the young man leave the guest room, immediately being greeted by the sight of Claire standing just a few steps away from the door.

Immediately sensing the massive increase in the strength imbued in Valyr's aura, Claire's eyes slightly widened in disbelief before giving him a slight grin. "Congratulations on ascending to a higher class rank."

Thanking Claire in response, Valyr looked back at her with a raised eyebrow. "Did Alfaera ask you to look after me?"

"It was mostly out of my own accord," replied Claire with a slight nod. "Though she did tell me to protect you after she noticed that you were undergoing your ascension."

"Then again, it would've helped us if you'd given us a heads-up beforehand," she continued as she let out a bit of laughter.

"Many of the people in the town hall began to panic because of you, actually. They were beginning to spout nonsense like the Greater Tidemother came back from the dead a second

time or something."

"In any case, there's no need for you to think deeply over what I said." Claire looked at Valyr in the eyes, her expression that of slight curiosity. "Alfaera has already given me an idea of where you'll be heading. You're heading to the barracks where Damian is, right?"

Hearing that question, Valyr nodded in response. "I am."

Then, for a brief moment, he flared out his aura that embodied his current level of strength as

he slightly smiled, briefly enveloping Claire with a sense of terror.

"After all, it's been a while since I've last seen him."

"I'm curious as to what's the cause that made him change that much."
