Alpha Reborn!

Evan didn't need to learn the Soul Energy Manipulation Technique that he obtained after opening the beginner package.

As the Crown Prince of Frost, he was no stranger to powerful techniques. He had been taught the secret energy manipulation method of his clan, a technique known as the Breath of Frost. It was a technique that utilized one's soul energy, and it had three levels. The first level was similar to other techniques, allowing a person to manipulate their soul energy.

But from there on, it was vastly different.

Evan's mind drifted to memories of his training.

He had spent countless hours pouring his heart and soul into mastering the Breath of Frost, but because of attention deficiency and a lack of talent, he had only managed to scratch the surface of the first level.

The second level, which added a chill to one's soul energy, and the third level, which granted one's soul energy the properties of ice, had remained out of his reach despite years of effort.

He shook his head, banishing the memories, and refocused on the task at hand.

As he sat there, his eyes fixed intently on the Breath of Frost Technique, Evan's lips curled up into a grin.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ The Breath of Frost was a technique that required years of practice and dedication to advance from one level to the next. Normally, it would have taken years before he could advance the Breath of Frost to the third level, but with the help of the five skill points, he was confident that he could accomplish this feat in a mere moment.

Without hesitation, Evan poured his skill points into the Breath of Frost technique.

[5 skill points have been consumed]

The world around him seemed to fade away as the technique surged to life, its power growing stronger with each passing moment. His understanding of the skill reached another level, and he gained the power to add the properties of cold and ice to his soul energy.

[The Breath of Frost Technique has advanced to the ultimate level!]

The cost of this achievement was high, and Evan was left with no skill points to spare. Advancing the Breath of Frost technique to the second level used up two skills points, and pushing it to the third level depleted another three points.

Despite this, he had no regrets. Now that the Breath of Frost technique had reached the third level, he could learn the soul ability he coveted.

With a sense of eager anticipation, Evan tapped the ability card against his forehead, signaling his intent to learn it.

The moment he made contact with the card, it disintegrated into a shower of golden light, which engulfed him completely.

Evan felt a torrent of knowledge flood into his mind, overwhelming him with its intensity. It was as if a thousand needles were piercing his flesh, causing him to writhe in pain.

The pain was excruciating, but he held on, his determination unbreakable.

After what felt like an eternity, the pain died down.

[Congrstualtion, Host! You have learned the soul ability "Bullet"]

[When cast, a small amount of soul energy will be consumed to create a compact ball half the size of a finger, which can be propelled forward in any direction of your choice at high speed]

The pain died down.

Evan was drenched in sweat, but his eyes were bright!

"Bullet" was one of the most potent soul abilities in the first patch of the game.

It was too hard to dodge as its speed was similar to that of a bullet shot from a handgun.

In other words, Evan had gained a weapon to put down even peak-level soul manipulators!

Moving forward, he activated the low-level weapon card to draw Fury of the Frost Demon!

[You have obtained the Magic item Frost Demon's Fury]

In this world, there were items with special effects. They were classified into several levels. Magic items were the weakest, but compared to normal weapons, they were extraordinary!

[Description: Frost Demon's Fury is a slim sword with a long, curved blade made from blackened steel. The handle is adorned with ornate engravings depicting scenes of ancient battles and heroic deeds. The weapon is said to have been forged by a furious ice demon and imbued with its blood, soul, and tears.]

[Abilities: The weapon has the ability to summon ice shards to strike foes from afar. In addition, Frost Demon's Fury grants its wielder increased strength and endurance, allowing them to perform feats of incredible agility and endurance.]

[Requirements: To wield Frost Demon's Fury, one must possess the ice-type soul energy]

Evan had reached the third level of the Breath of Frost Technique. He had the ability to change his soul energy into ice-type soul energy. He could wield this weapon without a problem.

As for the low-level Soul Energy Manipulation Technique card, he recycled it into skill points.

As a result, he gained one skill point!

The Player system could break down useless soul energy manipulation technique card that they haven't learned into points. This aspect of the Player system won Evan's heart.

"Physically, I am slightly better than the average citizen."

As the Crown Prince of Frost, a vast wealth of knowledge was readily available to him, and he was keenly aware that the average human boasted a modest five points in each physical attribute.

Despite being a juvenile, he was already faster and stronger than many fully grown adults - a remarkable achievement for one so young.

While he possessed a slight advantage in terms of speed and strength compared to fully grown adults, he knew that it was nothing remarkable, especially when compared to his peers.

Regrettably, his current statistics were lackluster, and he desperately needed to improve his physical strength if he wished to command the respect and admiration of his peers. Time was of the essence, and urgent actions were required to rectify his situation.

Evan's mind raced as he furiously searched for a solution. He desperately needed a plan to boost his physical prowess in order to alter the course of his destiny during the imminent awakening ceremony.

He wracked his brain, poring over every strategy he could conjure, determined to find a way to transcend his current limitations in the shortest time possible.

The weight of the impending ceremony pressed down on him, spurring him on as he tirelessly sought out the perfect plan. His fate was inextricably linked to his strength, and he knew that he had to find a way to push beyond his current capabilities in less than 50 hours if he was to have any hope of changing his destiny.

Excitement flickered in his eyes as a sudden idea flashed through his mind.

"With my abilities and magic weapon, defeating low-level monsters isn't impossible. The Kobold's Den of Mischief should be doable!"
