Noah’s eyes gleamed as he watched the roulette wheel materialize in front of him, suspended in mid-air like an ethereal mechanism designed for gods.

The colours on the wheel were simple but told a clear story.

Three colours dominated the wheel—black, purple, and white. The white section took up the majority, about 69% of the wheel.

Purple followed, taking up around 30%. But the smallest sliver, a narrow section of only about 1% of the wheel, was pure black. The sight of it immediately intrigued him.

The wheel began to spin with a soft whirring sound, each rotation picking up speed as it blurred before his eyes.

Noah’s focus honed in on the wheel’s motion. His pulse quickened as it raced around and around, the anticipation building in his chest.

Noah knew how these things worked—typically, the white sections would result in a decent skill, something useful but not groundbreaking. The purple would yield something extraordinary, and the black... well, black could either be the most incredible thing he could obtain or the worst.

His eyes narrowed as he focused on the spinning wheel, waiting for it to slow down.

The roulette began to lose momentum, the colours becoming distinguishable again. It edged past the white sections, teasing at the possibility of a basic reward.

It hesitated on purple for a second, before rolling over to the narrow black sliver.

And stopped.

Noah’s breath caught for just a moment. It had landed in the black.

[Ding! Advanced Memory Glance is rewarded!]

The words appeared before him, and he could feel the weight of the skill sinking into his mind.

Noah let out a breath, a smirk curling on his lips. "So, it’s a blessing," he thought, eyeing the reward.

The black section space was so small on the roulette, that landing on it felt almost impossible.

He pressed on the skill icon, letting the system provide more information.

[Advanced Memory Glance: With a brief touch, the host can glance into the memories of a person, seeing key events that shape their current state of mind or motivations. The memories are fragmented and come in short flashes, making interpretation tricky. However, the deeper the emotional resonance tied to the memory, the more detailed the flash.]

Noah read the description, his smirk widening as he absorbed the implications. This wasn’t just about peeking into someone’s mind—this was about gaining leverage, about understanding people on a fundamental level.

He could view their traumas, their fears, their motivations, and turn them against his enemies—or shape them to his advantage.

"No wonder why I was only given intermediate skills at best before," Noah muttered to himself, his fingers brushing against the air as if testing the power now running through him. "It’s because the system wasn’t upgraded. I indeed picked the right choice."

The system had evolved, and so had he. It wasn’t about raw power alone; it was about the finesse, the ability to play with the minds of others, to twist and bend them like malleable clay.

With this skill, he would no longer need to rely on direct confrontation to win battles. He could strip away the defences of his enemies with a mere touch, unveiling their vulnerabilities and hidden desires.

He pressed his fingers together, feeling the energy pulse through his veins as he imagined all the ways he could use this ability. The most dangerous part of manipulating people wasn’t forcing them—it was guiding them without them even realizing it. And this skill was built for exactly that.

With a satisfied grin, Noah stepped back, his thoughts racing with possibilities.

Advanced Memory Glance wasn’t just a tool—it was a key to unlocking the minds of anyone who crossed his path. A flicker of an idea crossed his mind, a dangerous and thrilling one.

What if he used this on people with large influence, unraveling their secrets, and guiding their actions?

The sheer potential of it sent a surge of excitement through him. His enemies would never know what hit them.

One touch, and their memories, their pasts, would be his to manipulate.

He could weave illusions, twist perceptions, and create realities that didn’t exist—all in the minds of those around him. They wouldn’t even realize they were being controlled until it was far too late.

Noah smiled to himself, a dark, quiet smile.

"This skill is built for me," he whispered, the words hanging in the air like a promise.

The system had delivered exactly what he needed—not just more raw power, but the means to control and influence the world in a way that aligned perfectly with his nature.

Noah stepped forward, already thinking of the next steps. [Advanced Memory Glance] wasn’t just a skill—it was a pathway to dominance, a way to slip into the lives and minds of others without them ever knowing.

"Let’s see where this takes me," Noah said, his voice filled with quiet confidence. He knew the system had changed everything. And now, with this new power at his fingertips, he was ready to shape the world in his image, one memory at a time.

The roulette had landed on black, and it had been anything but a curse. It was exactly what he needed to rise higher, faster than ever before.

Noah stretched his arms wide as he stepped into the hallway of his mansion, his mood lifted and filled with energy from his recent power-up.

"Let’s get the day started," he said aloud, the words echoing off the grand walls of his new home. It was time to finally explore everything this luxurious mansion had to offer.

The mansion itself was a masterpiece of modern design, blended with subtle hints of classic grandeur. It wasn’t just a home—it was a sanctuary, a fortress, and a symbol of the power Noah was starting to accumulate.

Walking through the spacious corridors, he admired the fine marble floors that reflected the soft morning light, each step of his making a quiet, satisfying echo.

His first stop was the sauna room, tucked away on the far end of the mansion. As he opened the door, a rush of heat greeted him.

The room was panelled in warm cedar wood, the aroma of natural wood instantly relaxing his mind. Sleek stone benches lined the walls, and a state-of-the-art steam system controlled the temperature perfectly.

Noah ran his hand along the smooth, heated stones at the center of the room, his fingers trailing through the lingering warmth.

The sauna was equipped with essential oils and herbal infusions—perfect for restoring one’s body after a hard day of training or simply to enjoy a quiet moment of peace.

"This’ll be useful," Noah thought with a smile.
