The headquarters of the New Italian Gifted Association sat in its usual heavy silence when a man in a crisp formal suit stepped up to a reinforced metal door. The plate bolted into the front read President’s Office in thick, authoritative letters. He knocked once, firmly. A steady voice responded from inside. “Come in.” The suited man entered, closing the door behind him, and gave a respectful bow. The president of the Association lifted his head from the stack of reports cluttering his desk, irritation flickering behind his sharp eyes. “Any progress on the man who beat the Tiger Guild?” he asked, resting his cheek against his hand as if bracing himself for bad news. The assistant shook his head. “Unfortunately, no. Whoever he is, he’s avoiding every traceable path. It’s almost impossible to track a person using only the vague description the Tiger Guild provided. We’ve already circulated his profile to all Gifteds registered with us. If even one of them comes across someone matchi

The president had assumed the Cardinal General was making some kind of dry joke, but the expression carved across the man’s face held no trace of humor. The seriousness in his eyes made it clear this was no exaggeration. “Who is this powerful Gifted?” the president finally asked. “I was hoping you would be the one to tell us,” the Cardinal replied with calm indifference. The Saintess stepped forward then, her voice level and controlled. “My warrior nuns encountered this man just moments before he left the area. We were unable to identify him. None of us had ever seen him before, and he is certainly not a registered Gifted. If he were, someone of that strength would be immediately recognizable.” The president’s eyes widened as the implication sank in, and his assistant Mark seemed equally stunned. An unregistered Gifted that strong was rare and deeply concerning. “Do you have any description at all?” the president asked. The Saintess took a slow breath, drawing what she could from

Ray let out a long breath and pressed his fingertips to his temples. “Just as I suspected. Even if I can keep casting magic without limit as long as I have mana to absorb, my mind still ends up drained,” he muttered quietly, closing his eyes for a moment. He stayed still until the lingering fog in his head began to settle. “And that is not the only strange effect. My thoughts feel lighter than before, and everything about magic seems easier to grasp. It is as if some invisible weight has been lifted.” His expression tightened with sudden irritation. “Great. Only six days left until class selection begins.” He slapped his forehead and shook his head in disbelief. He slowly rose from the bed and approached the window. The world outside was still wrapped in the remains of night. Dawn had not yet broken, and the sky held that faint bluish tint before the sun finally appeared to warm New New Italy. While staring at the horizon, Ray mentally retraced everything that had happened before h

The information regarding the second Ki cultivation realm floated before Ray like an illuminated scroll. [Second Ki Cultivation Realm: Ki Condensation Realm] [The human body contains 20 meridians, made up of 12 primary meridians and 8 extraordinary meridians. These meridians correspond directly to the acupoints, also known as Ki points.] [Breakthrough Requirement: Open all 12 primary meridians using Ki obtained from breathing.] Ray inhaled deeply and lowered himself to the ground. “All right. I should begin.” He crossed his legs into the lotus position and rested his hands lightly in front of his Dantian. His spine straightened into perfect alignment, and he began to regulate his breathing according to the instructions within The Titan Body Refinement Art. His breaths gradually deepened, becoming steady and measured. A faint rhythm emerged from the quiet in the room, creating a gentle harmony with the rise and fall of his chest. At this stage, Ray still could not draw Ki into hi

The system notifications flickered in front of Ray like they were impatient with him. [The 'Adaptation' period is over.] [In five minutes, you will be transported to the Hall of Ascension, where you will undergo your class selection.] [Remaining Time: 00:00:04:12] Ray stared at the countdown in silence, already bracing himself for the transition. The moment he reached level 20, this was inevitable. Every Gifted who crossed that threshold was summoned to the Hall of Ascension to receive their first class. There was no avoiding it. He let out a long breath. His irritation had been building ever since he realized he could only open ten meridians. The attempt to force open the eleventh felt like pushing a knife made of cheap scrap metal against a mountain of stone. No matter how hard he pushed, the resistance refused to budge. Even so, Ray refused to let the setback weigh him down. Once he began climbing the Tower, each floor contained opportunities hidden in places most people would

For several minutes, the Hall of Ascension remained completely silent. No one dared to move. The pressure of the place itself seemed to hold everyone in place, as if drawing a line between hesitation and destiny. Eventually, the Saintess stepped forward, her steps steady as she approached the massive crystal at the front of the hall. The moment she neared it, the crystal responded with a faint glow, as though recognizing her presence. When the Saintess lifted her hand and placed it upon its surface, light rippled across the gemstone, and a cascade of system notifications appeared before her eyes. [You have met all the criteria to obtain a class.] [Analyzing your physical attributes...] [Analyzing your path of cultivation...] [Analyzing your constitution...] [Analyzing your self-learned skills...] [Analyzing your talents...] [Analyzing your personality...] [Analyzing your faith...] [Analyzing your will...] [Analyzing your experiences...] [Analyzing your life...] [Creating a

Ray stepped forward at last, taking the place everyone before him had already passed through. The woman who served as the host barely reacted. Her stare remained flat, as if she were looking at nothing more than another name to check off a long list. In her eyes, Ray was just the next Gifted waiting for his turn. He exhaled to steady himself and laid his hand on the crystal. Even though he tried to play it cool, he could not deny the tension running through him. The surface of the crystal felt warm against his palm, almost alive. He sensed a current of energy flowing through him, threading in and out of his body like something evaluating him from the inside. His vision shifted as his eyes lit up with a neon blue glow. A dense blue aura erupted around him, crackling and twisting like flames. The air vibrated from the sudden surge. The woman finally reacted. Her eyebrow lifted slightly. "Another special class?" she muttered. She had seen thousands of people awaken special classes t

The towering woman who oversaw the Hall of Ascension stood silently as Ray vanished. Her blank expression slowly shifted, the cold stillness in her face cracking into something resembling disbelief. “Did he actually choose Hell difficulty?” she muttered. Her brows drew together, irritated and stunned at once. “This man really wants to die. I told them clearly that clearing Hell difficulty is impossible. Hell exists to remind people of their limits, not to be touched by someone from a newborn world.” She clicked her tongue and dismissed the thought at first. But then her crimson eyes glowed faintly as the system streamed Ray’s newly updated details directly into her mind. “True Magic Swordsman?” she whispered. “A perfected branch of the Magic Swordsman line. The system never creates something like this unless the Gifted truly warrants it.” Her indifference evaporated drop by drop as she continued reading. By the time she reached the full description of the class, her expression w

Ray came down on the broad limb of another towering tree, its thick branches rising high above the suffocating tangle of the forest below. The canopy was so dense that sunlight barely slipped through, leaving the ground steeped in shadow. “About fifty-four of these damn vipers, and the king sitting somewhere above level eighty,” Ray muttered while peering down toward the forest floor. From his vantage point, he spotted a massive crater that looked like something had smashed into the earth with catastrophic force. Coiling through the pit were dozens of vipers, their bodies weaving together in a mass of scales and restless motion. He clicked his tongue. “Fine. I’ll keep throwing full-powered fireballs until there’s nothing left of them.” Raising his hand, Ray summoned a ring of flame magic circles above his head. One after another, fireballs began to condense within them, each sphere swelling into a three-foot orb that resembled a miniature sun. His flames had grown far stronger afte

The forest of the First Trial Realm trembled under the force of battle. Among the towering trees and tangled vines, a lone magic swordsman carved his way through a swarm of Scaled Forest Vipers, each one large enough to swallow a grown man. His flaming blade swept through the air again and again, cutting down snake after snake. The sword burned with an intense heat that melted scales, charred flesh, and left every fallen viper lifeless before it hit the ground. Near the center of the forest, close to the enormous cave where the Scaled Forest Viper King resided, a streak of brilliant blue light darted in a sharp zigzag pattern. Wherever that light stopped, another viper collapsed in pieces, its body torn apart and its organs consumed by merciless flame. Ray had already cut down more than ten of the creatures, yet he could feel the tide of battle growing more difficult. The vipers were becoming quicker and more aggressive, lunging from every angle with gaping jaws that sought to swall
