Damien saw that, and lightly smiled as he added again, "And don't forget that anything Unique pertains to godhood. It was never something us mortals should be playing around with."

Those statements sealed the deal, and made Juliette understand the overall situation. Basically, everything was useless to the current them.

With that thought, she even lost the excitement to check out her treasures from the Tier 4 treasure chest. But she also had questions of her own, "Then if that is the case, is it possible to have infinite Mana?"

Damien thought on her words and then answered a moment later, "Yeah. But Infinity is an abstruse term as well, and nobody can genuinely count up to it. Unless you have a special Unique or Ultimate Abilities."

"Meaning?" Juliette pursed.

"Unique Abilities are simply powers of the gods. Having one, and you're already considered to have divine ancestry within your Bloodline. And gods have divine power at their arsenal, a source trillions of time vaster than Mana."

"Now, if a mortal had but a single divine power unit to them, it would be equivalent to having trillions of Mana. And if the divine power is quite vast, which is unlikely for mortals to have, they might end up having nigh-infinite reserves."

Damien concluded as he took off every piece of artifact and clothing on himself, either than his inner wear. "I'll be using the bath now." He said and Juliette nodded.

"What about Abilities? Is it easy to comprehend Abilities and create more?" She asked as he took ahold of a spare towel, which belongs to him as he usually stayed nights here from time to time.

"No. But if you're very talented, yes. As for our experience, within the Trials, repeated actions or exaggerated actions above your realm would ignite the appearance of Abilities or the likes." Damien responded.

"I see. Then how high can one's stats go up to?" Juliette inquired once again.

Damien left the room while answering her, "Depends on the index of that League. A higher Stat, did not mean higher power. What mattered most of all were Leagues, as the higher the League, the higher the stat value."

He entered the bathroom, yet his voice still heard by her, "For example, the current you feel much stronger than you were before becoming level 6, right?"

"Yes." Julie nodded.

He then continued, "It's because your index had doubled. Every 0,1 Stat point represents 1 ton of strength from now on, on your STR stat. The same for the other Stats as well."

"Basically, before a god, we are still nothing but mortals regardless. Plus, we can't even use 90% of what we obtained from this trial." He concluded, tone not bitter or bothered.

"..."

Juliette sighed and sat down on her bed. She thought up on his words, and what they went through. The experience, the power gain, and the final trial.

Everything was still unbelievable to her, yet overall exciting. Three hours ago, she was nothing but a normal third generational human being, now she was setting a path to become the Derivator of Mana.

'I wonder if it's possible? Big brother did mention that The Primordial Source is an Omnipotent entity... So I'll be looking forward to it.' Juliette thought with a hint of expectations.

Time went by and Damien finished taking his shower in just under thirty minutes. He left and Juliette switched with him, taking over an hour instead.

As a woman, she had to make sure she was clean and scrub-free. And her hair was a bit special, and needed more attention to clean than average.

After two hours, both were done washing up and wore their clothes. And indeed, Damien had clothes here as well, which Juliette would buy for him whenever she went out, and felt like it would look good on him.

She knew all his measurements and sizes, so Damien never felt like he never had enough clothes. His mother had long stopped buying clothes for him, and his father would never.

Nor would he. "Big brother, what now?" Juliette asked as she changed the sheets of her bed, to one's that were new and fresh.

She wore a blue one-piece dress that reached all the way above her knees, and was tied around the waist by similar colored slim belt. It had short sleeves, and covered much of her chest.

She also tied her long black hair into a long pony tail. She was quite beautiful, and her gear up made her seem fresh and vibrant.

Meanwhile, Damien wore a long black trouser that was not to loose, nor too tight. A white loose shirt that did not make moving difficult for him, and simply that.

They were indoors, and wore no shoes.

"We could either rest, or go check out that old couple next door, or ignore them altogether and try to appoint someone who would take charge of this city during these coming times." Damien responded, sitting on the floor and learning on the bed.

Juliette climbed up the bed and asked, "By ignoring them altogether, you want to conquer the city? Can you even manage a city?" Her tone was quite playful.

"No. I cannot. But I know a kid who could." Damien casually responded. Juliette pouted as she remembered that he was still someone from the future.

Even if the timline was different, the people would not be so varied right? After all, she herself was one such person.

"Okay, let us do that tomorrow. We have time right? What about aunt and uncle? You are not worried that–"

"Not even a bit." Damien cut through her words and responded. Juliette clicked her tongue in wonder how people can be like this towards each other, yet still love each other.

Anyway, "Okay, in that case... are you staying over? You have not visited me this whole year." Juliette whispered from where she lay.

"The 'whole year' just only begun though. And you're now 15 years old, you're a semi-adult. We, are both at that age." Damien said.

"So?" Juliette pouted her lips and said, "Not like you can't restrain yourself. And not like I would mind either if anything happened."

"If what happened?" Damien spoke, while standing up and looking down on Juliette's mesmerizing figure laying on her bed. He had a light smirk on his face.

"Nevermind." Juliette pouted even more, and avoided even his gaze as she replied. Damien chuckled to himself then sat on the bed, "Alright, I'll stay over."

"..."

Juliette did not say anything and just moved aside, taking up only half of the bed. Damien also did not say anything from there on, and lay on the other half.

They actually had no reason to sleep, but did it either way. Damien did it because he felt like it, for entertainment sake. While Juliette was still not used to the abundant energy she had as a First League Combatant.

And hence, they slept.

And as they slept, within the City Lord's estate, a young man who was around age fifteen appeared within his room in a flash of light.

He was dead beat tired, and sweating buckets. The experience he went through was a never before seen one. Especially since he was previously weak for a third generational human. Too weak.

[ TING!!! ]

[ Congratulations to candidate "Adonis Adams" for clearing your trial ]

[ As one of the one hundred and five people to clear your trials, you have the chance to choose amongst the remaining six Hidden Classes ]

[ Please carefully make your choice ]

[ 3. Creation Sun ]

[ 4. Dao Ancestor ] (Changed from Cultivator)

[ 5. Child of Ruins ]

[ 6. Athens Successor ]

"..."

The young breathed heavily as he read through the notifications. He was still not completely out from the experience he narrowly escaped from in the very last moment.

He then chose to first open the first one to glean the information of what was special about Classes, Hidden ones to be precise.

After all, it did seem special from just the introduction, and the fact that only six were left when only one hundred and five candidates had only participated so far.

So he forcefully calmed himself down, and clicked on the <Primal Emperor Star> Class, and what information it had in store for him.

Adonis tapped on the <Primal Emperor Star> Class, and great information was presented to him in bulk. Information that he deemed out of this world due to how abstruse they are.

[ Primal Emperor Star (HIDDEN) ]

[ Introduction: The Providence of one who will become the Emperor of Existence, one who will transcend the Primeval with nothing but majesty, and lead Primal Soldiers that could shake the Primal Eras of the past, and set a path of Conquest ahead of you, and your people. The banner of a King is majestic, the banner of an Emperor is godly ]

"..."

And the young man was flabbergasted just from the first half of the definition. Let alone the other half containing the most important information.
