Just as Aiden was still in a daze trying to wrap his head around the sudden surge of notifications, another popped up right after the long winded previous one.
This was the so-called new type of system guide quest, the one related to his newly awakened [Herculean Heritage] bloodline.
[New Bloodline Quest Received! - Herculean Heritage Improvement]
[Difficulty: N/A
Objective: -With the knowledge granted to the System Guide, follow its instructions during the next meditation session and improve [Herculean Heritage] to the next level.
Reward: 9000 XP, [Meditation] Evolution (Leven Up)]
\'Bloodline… Quest? What is this?\' Aiden muttered looking stumped as he read through the long series of updates.
Compared to other quests the system usually gave him, this one was vastly different. Whilst it had some similarities in its format, there were a lot of unique differences that set it aside.
For one, it had no difficulty setting and as such there were only fixed rewards without any question marks or ambiguous statements shrouding it. Once you completed the assignment given you will be granted a fixed, set amount of System Points as well as a direct improvement to his [Meditation] skill.
The skill that had no way to improve before finally could be directly evolved to something different! This was great news!
At the same time, it was the first time, that the system did not use its preferred \'carrot and stick\' method and only offered boons instead of punishments. Yet despite it being not a forced undertaking, Aiden still made it its highest priority right away. The rewards were incredible, making the spent effort more than worth the invested time and effort.
For one, 12000 experience was more than the amount Aiden had spent for boosting his Might. That return would already make the investment worth the pain for the gain.
However, that reward also was a hint, a hidden tell that Aiden also took notice of. For such a reward it meant that this session would most likely require him next 4 to 5 hours, or possibly even more.
With his time severely limited for the time being, and him still in the process of improving his second physical related attribute his Agility, as well as look into his most important skills, he needed to be careful and think it through.
However, the allure of the potential rewards was just too much for him. He had wondered for quite a while as of what he could do with his non-regular skills, and how could he improve them if he could not use his Points gained on their improvement. Was it through some special rewards through acquiring specific forms? Was it gained through the system\'s fusion ability? Or was there something else?
Now, he had gained an answer to them. Whilst this may not be true for all of them, at least he now could safely confirm that indeed these skills were not necessarily the end of the road but there could be something new, something unique waiting above them and that he just needed to find the method specific to that skill to unlock its new potential, its new realm.
Still, after some silent debate, and with the inkling that Agility might as well receive a similar treatment, Aiden had made up his mind. Though he only had 8000 points remaining which meant he needed to make up the remaining 5000 points first through a session of [Meditation] first.
Making up his mind, Aiden heaved a heavy gasp of air. Taking his time, he inhaled the stale underground cavern air slowly but steadily filling up both his lungs. As his chest grew in width, he took a couple of seconds storing it in his diaphragm and used this short moment to clear his head from all the distracting thoughts.
After that, with a long, controlled steady exhale he expurged all of these, gradually clearing his mind. With each repeated cycle, his mindset turned more and more tranquil, until he could finally feel reaching the peculiar state, and with the last exhale he activated the ability.
As his eyelids fell down and closed up, so did his mind dive deeper into his subconscious. Aiden [Soul Power] began to course at a steady pace in his fleshly frame. Its steady pace was neither hurried nortoo drawn out. It revolved at a regulated speed.
Time passed steadily, seconds turning to minutes, and minutes to hours. With each completed cycle Aiden could feel his energy being refilled, the exhaustion brought forth by the earlier strengthening was washed out and his body was once again rejuvenated. At the same time, small wisps of newly formulated energy were infused into his soul with each cycle, freshening it as well, keeping their host at his peak performance and replacing several hours of good sleep along the process.
Keeping his consciousness on the system\'s screen, Aiden kept note of his gradual increase in his accumulation of System Points. Whilst he had no real sense of time, by knowing the controlled pace of his points increasing, he could guess that roughly two hours have gone by before his points finally reached and even surpassed his guesstimated 13000 mark and reached its previous height of 15000 once more.
As soon as he felt ready, Aiden stopped cultivating his [Soul Power] and pulled back into reality once again.
After a quick check in with his captains and learning that everything was still going as planned, Aiden once again dived deeper into his floating transparent clouds of System screens and concentrated his attention on his Agility attribute this time around.
In the next second, he could feel as his newly earned points were draining rapidly once more. In barely any time, a sizable portion of his hard earned currency vanished, transferred over to his Agility, rapidly raising it to its completed, perfected state, and directly brought forth another breakthrough.
*Rumble!*
Like before another low tremble came somewhere deeper within in the next instant. As his Agility counter suddenly changed, growing from the previous 46 all the way to 47, Aiden could feel another small, yet meaningful change happening inside his body.
