Benny's astral jaw nearly hit the floor as he read through wave after wave of notifications. Calling the rewards from this Evolution Lucrative would be a bald-faced lie. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he quickly waved his hand and opened his new Status Profile.
What he saw astounded him to no end, mainly because he was currently in an Astral State and not back in his body; thus, he could not feel the significant changes his body had gone through.

Aside from the noticeable changes to his Status and Affinities, the most significant shift Benny could see came from how high his MP had grown.
"Holy shit…44.5k Mana….how is that even possible? That's almost three times as much MP as I had before." Scrolling back through his notifications, Benny stopped at a specific line detailing how his Mana body had been constructed.
"Mana Body? What the heck is that? UGH, Damn it, Cynrik, because you are always rushing us to level up; we don't even know what we are getting ourselves into. Tier-3 Is something you are only supposed to enter when you reach the later years at the Academy."
Benny couldn't help but feel nervous while he grit his teeth as there were many new words on his Status Profile, such as Mana Veins and SPN-XP; hell, even the fact that he had built something called a Mana Body confused him to no end.
"Sigh, it looks like we will be experiencing several sleepless nights of studying in the future." Facepalming as he spoke, Benny's eyes flicked to his new Stats and the notification of his Stat Cap rising to 5400.
"1800 to 5400, that is a LONG road, not to mention my Primary Level Cap is now 50, so I can assume it's the same for my future Class and Sub-Class." Massaging the back of his Astral neck, Benny soon dropped his hands to his side and floated in the vast open space of his SOC.
"I Finally gained my Sea of Consciousness; I guess I will spend a lot of time here in the future. Hmm, maybe I should build a house or something." With that thought, Benny floated off to explore the four continents filled with Elemental Mana matching his Affinities; all the while, he waited patiently for his Evolution to be Completed.
After being advised by his Chaperone ahead of time that it would take several hours to finish, Benny had nothing better to do.

POV: Melody
-Congratulations, you have signed a Spirit Contract with a Spirit who is Initial Tier-4. As such, your stats have increased exponentially.-
-You have Passed your Trial Quest, With an S+ Rating. You will receive extra benefits upon completion of your Tier-3 Evolution.-
-Now Commencing Tier-3 Evolution.-
"KYAHHH AHHHH AHHHHHHHHH!!!" Melody's high-pitched screams could have been heard a mile away if the Aether Capsule weren't completely soundproof.
Unlike Benny, who had just come off getting the shit kicked out of him by invisible opponents and even dying several times, Melody was thrown directly into the most hellacious pain she had ever experienced whilst completely unprepared.
The moment she Completed her Trial Quest, every nerve in her body exploded with intense sensations that overstimulated her brain. Even with the bea…physical conditioning Cynrik had been so gracious in giving her, nothing could have prepared the teenage girl for what she was feeling.
Melody's eyes melted in their sockets as blood oozed from every pore on her body as if trying to flee from an unseen enemy. Her teeth aged rapidly and soon turned to dust, along with every bone in her body. In a moment, Melody was nothing more than a bag of flesh, completely boneless, until the Cycle of Breathing Mana Life sprang into action and repaired her from the ground up.
-Continuing passed the 50% mark of your Evolution.-
-Commencing Breathing Mana Life Cycle.-
-Burning all Excess Essence stored in the Essence Pool.-
Pure agony was the only way to describe what Melody was going through. The process of breaking one Mortal restraint and stepping into the next stage of Evolution was never a pretty sight. If she had never met Cynrik nor gone through his training, odds are she would have died the instant her body collapsed during the first Cycle of Breathing Mana Life.
The only thing Melody could do was thrash about and scream whenever her vocal cords reassembled until finally, after what seemed like an eternity, she appeared in an Astral Form high above a three-continent world.
A Massive wind storm dominated one body of land, whereas the second was filled with jagged mountains. The third and final continent was the strangest one yet, as an enormous dust storm completely blotted it out.
'',
-Breathing Mana Life Cycle has been completed 65 times.-
-Your Mana Body has been entirely constructed.-
-Zero Flaws or Anomalies found with Mana Body Construction.-
Before Melody could look around and examine the exciting sights of her SOC, the flood of notifications stole her attention.
-You have developed your Sea of Consciousness, SOC. You may enter it to recover from Soul Damage or to Cultivate your inner power.-
-Distributing Rewards from the completion of the Advanced Ranked Trial Quest.-
-Special Physique has been detected, adjusting Resource Stat Modifier.-
-Tier-3 Resource Stat Modifier has increased from 20 HP per point, 40 MP per point, and 5 STAM per point, to 40, 80, 10.-
-You Will Now receive 10 Free Allocation Points and 4 Skill Points Each time you increase your Primary Level.-
-You Will Now receive 3 Free Allocation Points and 3 Skill points each time you increase your Class or Sub-Class Level.-
-Your Tier-3 BG Wind Affinity has Evolved into Tier-3 Wind Manipulation.-
-Your Tier-3 BG Terra Affinity has Evolved into Tier-3 Terra Manipulation.-
-Your Tier-2 SBG Dust Affinity has Evolved into Tier-2 Dust Manipulation.-
-All of your Manipulations are presently at the Initial Stage.
-The Titles Perfect Foundation and Reforged have been recognized and changed to Perfect Evolution.-
-You have broken the restraints holding you in the Mortal Stage and Advanced into the Supernatural Stage.-
-Your Mana Veins have fully formed.-
-Your Mana Codex has grown slightly.-
-Your Distribution has increased from 2 to 3 points per level.-
-Your profile has been upgraded to Tier-3.-
-Your Primary Level has changed from Level 35 to Level Zero; the new cap is set to 50.-
-Your Intelligence, Vitality, and Mind Stats have increased to 1800 points.
-Your Strength, Dexterity, and Agility Stats have increased to 1125 points.-
-Your Stat Cap has increased to 5400 points.-
-You no longer can use Standard Essence to Increase your Level; you are required to use a higher form of Energy, SPN Stage Essence.*SPN-XP*-
-One point of SPN-XP is equivalent to 10k Essence.-
-The conversion of XP to SPN-XP can be done, but it is time-consuming and must be done within the SOC.-
"Hah, hah, what? That's it, I thought…where are the special rewards I was promised?" Trying to catch her breath, Melody scrutinized the updates to her mind and body even though she was in an Astral State.
Although she complained and felt entitled to more benefits, it had to be remembered that she had only completed an Advance Difficulty Trial quest, so the added benefits she could receive were nowhere near as grand as Benny's.
So although her Affinities had Evolved into Manipulations, they didn't change in grade or get stronger, not to mention she didn't receive a new Distribution Stat. There were more differences, but they hadn't been revealed in the form of notifications as they were things that needed to be discovered through experimentation.
Leaning back and floating helplessly, Melody felt wronged. Coming off the high of completing her Trial Quest and seeing the line about receiving additional rewards, she couldn't help but be curious about what they could have been.
Sure, she noticed things like her Affinities changing to Manipulations, but that was a given, considering he mother had informed her that Affinities were supposed to change due to Higher Stage Beings being able to control advanced Mana Particles.
But the only thing Melody could feel was...average at a glance.
