Chapter 1169: Rewards (6) [Bonus]
[I hope both sides of your pillow are warm tonight, Chronotitan </3]
Sylas couldn’t help but fall into thought.
This deduction of his made sense, but it still felt so… well, it was almost unfair in an enticing way, the sort of way that made him want to figure out a method of doing it personally.
His thoughts couldn’t help but flicker to the Gluttony Seed, and thoughts began to flourish in his mind.
‘Would that work?’
Sylas stood, ignoring his rewards for a moment as he began to pace back and forth. He didn’t even notice just how much his speed had increased, the world warping around him as a single step was worth many more.
And then he came back.
Sylas didn’t think himself to be much of a pacer, but the improvements to his body made it hard for him to sit in one spot for much longer, so he chose this path—not realizing just how much of an effect his body alone was having on the Runes around him.
“So my Rune Spark Mastery won’t have anything to do with my Foundation either?” Sylas asked.
“Probably not.”
“Probably?”
The little girl was silent, and Sylas realized that it was once again something that was too expensive for him.
‘Rune Spark is just the beginning…’
Sylas’ gaze flickered when he remembered Gralith’s words.
It was interesting, because wasn’t this a lot like so many other things? From F- to FFF+, it seemed like the whole picture—until suddenly you realized this was the system’s method of breaking down what was ultimately just the Fragmented Grade, a Grade the Legendary System didn’t even deem worthy to consider.
What if it was just the same for Rune Mastery? What if the nine levels of Rune Mastery, from Rune Enlightenment to Rune Spark, were aligned with F- to FFF+… making Rune Spark just the beginning?
If the little girl was saying probably not, could it mean that Sylas had reached a level of Rune Mastery that was only acknowledged by the Legendary System, and now it was impossible to add it to his Foundation as well?
Sylas continued to pace, his body heating up as one thought came quickly after another. His new Title seemed to be putting in quite some effort as well, because the streaming lines of deductions only came faster and quicker with time.
Suddenly, Sylas came to a stop.
The Seeds, at the very least, were from the same era as the Legendary System. There was no other way to explain why the Legendary System would hate their appearance so much.
Though the Madness Key did hide itself from the impotent system as well, it neither seemed afraid of it, nor was the Crimson Eye triggered by its appearance like the All-Seeing Eye was.
In that case, the Seeds were connected to an era that the system was trying to replicate at every turn, but failing to.
