Legendary Traveler: By Earning Progress Points I will Become Supreme! Chapter 253: A New Path to Power Reveals Itself

"Is the cost sothing detrintal to you, like will it physically injure your body or sothing of that nature?"

"Physically, as in will it injure , or physically, as in, it will inhibit my future growth?" Aoni rebutted while scratching the back of his head.

To be honest, he was completely unsure how to explain away the fact that he had a mysterious resource that only he could use, and THAT was the cost of the first option.

So, instead of giving a straightforward answer, he opted to play it coy instead, sothing which earned him yet another swift chop to the head.

"You know exactly what I an; stop playing dumb and spit it out." Massaging his hand because that last chop had actually fractured the bones, Anthony couldn't help but worry about his brother's future; after all, not only was he the elder brother and thus responsible for disciplining the moron, but if dum-dum Aoni kept acting this way, sooner or later it would catch up to him and be the cause of his demise.

"Ack, ack, do you not know the aning of the word RESTRAINT!" Aoni complained as he rolled around on the ground, clutching his head.

As all this was transpiring, Glacia sat so distance away, munching on multiple snacks brought out by Ant, completely unbothered by how her lord was being treated.

In fact, on so level, she was quite enjoying watching Aoni getting tossed around and scolded since usually it was her in that position.

"Fine, no, it won't hinder in the normal sense, but knowing how things go for , I don't doubt the 2nd option will end up being extrely taxing on both ntally and physically."

'Plus, there's no telling what the hell kind of passive I will get out of this or how it will benefit . One thing is for sure when it cos to my attribute, the odds of it being painless are ZERO.'

Leaving the second statent as a thought, Aoni stood back up and looked toward the impressive Rune-covered stone door.

"Honestly, I am more tempted to go with the second option, which will directly benefit . Although keeping the door and Formation intact is an advantage, there's no telling if anything is still intact on the other side."

"You said it yourself: dating this place is near impossible; pair that with the fact that we have yet to find anything such as broken weapons or armor, I suppose it's safe to say we are talking in the millions of years range."

In a rare mont of intelligence, Aoni was actually making so sense to Anthony, who, from the beginning, was leaning more toward the second option.

If the cost of destroying the Formation was significantly less than keeping it whole, then there was no need to talk about it more.

"I wouldn't exactly count out the fact there could be so good stuff in the treasury; after all, Glacia did say she slled sothing tasty, rember. Eh…but even then, it could be so type of plant or sothing."

For a mont, the brothers fell into a state of silent agreent before Aoni broke it and stepped forward.

"Right, option two it is, then," Aoni stated casually before stepping forward and tossing a knowing smirk at his brother.

"Oh, fair warning, if sothing happens to , no matter how much I freak out or scream, just know I probably won't die…"

"Die…woah woah, what do you an, blah blah blah." Of course, his words drew quite a reaction from Anthony, but Aoni subsequently ignored it.

{'Glacia, keep a close eye on ; this may end up like a typical add points session; you know what to do if things turn out like that…right?'}

"GAO GAO!"

{'ADD POINTS! Don't worry, brodder Glaci knows wats to doos.'} Sitting up straight and startling Ant with her random yet expected outburst, Glacia nodded like a bobblehead in confirmation.

"Ant, if sothing happens, just follow Glacia's lead; this isn't our first rodeo with random events like this; she knows what to do." With that said, Aoni didn't wait to hear what his brother had to say and instead directed his attention toward his Attribute Notice.

'Let's go with Option 2,'

"HOLD UP, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN?" Anthony scread while trying to stop Aoni from doing anything extre; however before he could even take a step closer, an imnse pressure descended on the lad from above, halting then forcing Anthony to his knees.

"W…ha….t…argh…" fighting against it, after a second or two of effort, Anthony found himself lying on the ground near Glacia as she gently patted his face with her paw as if saying, "there there, it happens to all of us."

Unfortunately for Aoni, he had already lost sense of his surroundings and didn't even notice the return of the familiar pressure bearing down on his body; instead, his eyes were wholly focused on the ssages rapidly covering his AN.

| The Host has chosen Option 2, generating applicable Passive |

| Unique Passive Generated |

| 25,000 Progress Points Have been Deducted |

| Imprinting Passive into the Host |

| 5000 Progress Points Have been Deducted |

| New Passive: (U) Energia Siphon (Rankless) Has been Acquired |

In the span of a few seconds, Aoni lost 30,000 Progress points, but with the wealth he had acquired thanks to the daily monster tides, it didn't bother him much.

So, instead of worrying about his imaginary money vanishing into the void, he instead closed his eyes and focused on the trickle of information erging in his mind.

Contrary to how the majority of his other passives worked, wherein Aoni would be forced to stumble in the dark until he figured out how to use it, such as Energia Manipulation, or his Inventory, this new and Unique Passive ca with information similar to how his Swordsmanship Passive did.

Even so, given the fact that it was currently Rankless and hadn't been strengthened at all, Aoni's eyes snapped open before giving the ntal command for its description.

| (U) Energia Siphon (Rankless) |

| A unique Passive to User Aoni Thurston, established to increase the productivity of his future Progress; through this passive, he is able to absorb pre-established Energia and use it as a ans of nourishing himself |

'Nourishing myself, sigh, my TD never fails in being extrely vague, whatever, increase the Rank of my Energia Siphon passive to G .'
