As soon as Kisha clicked 'Yes,' the skill book blazed with a brilliant light before opening its pages. A mont later, the system interface materialized in front of her, and the skill book vanished. The skill she had acquired then appeared on the system interface, displayed clearly for her to see.
[Active Skill: Rainbow Cube]
[Description: Creates a separate, customizable space that can trap anything inside. The size of the cube depends on the user's mana. Consus mana to generate the space.
Grade: EX]
Kisha's excitent to see her new skill quickly turned to puzzlent. The description was vague, leaving her unsure about its full potential. She wondered, Is this all there is to it? The skill seed to offer only a basic function of trapping anything inside, but she had hoped for a more detailed explanation.
She questioned whether the skill's simplicity was truly all it entailed or if there was more to discover.
Kisha was taken aback by the skill's simplistic explanation and the unusual "Grade: EX" classification. She had never encountered a rating beyond "SSS" before and wondered if this was a new tier or simply an anomaly. The skill's vague description left her with more questions than answers. She felt a strong urge to experint with it to understand its full capabilities.
Fortunately, this skill didn't have a cooldown period, possibly because it relied on mana rather than spiritual energy like her other abilities. Despite finding the skill a bit troubleso, Kisha rembered an accessory that could help. Excitedly, she retrieved 'The Princess Tear' necklace from her inventory, put it on, and checked her new status window.
She speculated that, similar to how she had gained a new stat for 'Luck,' mana would now be a key stat for her as well.

...
Kisha's excitent grew as she saw her ntal capacity reach 500 and her stamina surpass 100. These improvents ant she could now use her Telekinesis to control larger and heavier objects with greater ease. Her enhanced stamina would also help her endure longer periods of activity without tiring quickly.
However, with her ntal capacity significantly increased, the main challenge remaining was managing her spiritual energy.
Although her ntal capacity had reached an unprecedented level, it didn't automatically increase her spiritual energy. The boost in ntal capacity allowed her to control heavier objects more easily, but maintaining control over such objects for extended periods would still require a correspondingly high level of spiritual energy.
Her next goal was to find an item or thod to increase her spiritual energy as well. Although her spiritual energy wasn't displayed in her status window, she could monitor it during battles when both her health and spiritual energy were visible. This would help her keep track of how much spiritual energy she was using.
As she was absorbed in thinking about how to balance her stats to ensure her skill's effective execution, she suddenly felt a surge of energy overwhelm her. It was as if an invisible force was tightening around her heart, causing a gripping sensation.
'Thud'
She could hear her heartbeat pounding loudly, and her entire body began to tremble, drawing Duke's attention. Kisha clutched her chest tightly, beads of sweat forming on her forehead as her face turned pale. Duke, visibly alard, urgently asked her what was happening, his concern growing with each passing mont.
"Kisha?! What's wrong? What's happening to you?!" Duke threw a flurry of questions at her, his voice edged with panic. When he received no response, his worry intensified, and he quickly dropped his newly prized spear, his focus entirely on Kisha's distress.
"Ugh!" Kisha grunted as she coughed up a mouthful of blood. Seeing this, Duke's eyes widened with panic, and his gaze darted around desperately for a solution. His face reddened with fear as he considered carrying Kisha to the dical facility or helping her rest. But Kisha, clutching the bedsheet beside her with a vice-like grip, refused to let go.
In his frantic state, Duke was like a headless chicken, his mind a blank as a deafening buzz filled his head. Struggling to pull himself together, he felt helpless and overwheld. All he could manage to do was soothingly rub Kisha's back, trying to offer so comfort. At that mont, he felt utterly useless.
Kisha knew that her life might be in danger because of the surge of energy assaulting her heart, it felt familiar but at the sa ti foreign to her, it felt kind of similar to the spiritual energy flowing in her brain but at the sa ti a completely different power, so she surmised this is what they called 'Mana'.
She could feel the two different powers clashing inside her, now, not only her heart was killing her but also her brain was throbbing really harshly that she felt like it would explode anyti soon, not that her heart was doing any better.
"Ack!" Kisha coughed another mouthful of blood and it beca harder for her to breathe but she didn't want to give up and tried to guide the powers back to flow in their respective sides, her spiritual energy to her brain and her mana to her heart but doing it is not making any difference.
It felt like opposing powers trying to invade each other's territory and whenever they t in so conjecture or path in her body, they would clash.
Veins began to bulge alarmingly on her forehead, neck, and other parts of her body, creating a frightening sight. Her jaw was clenched tightly as she fought to avoid biting her tongue in the midst of the searing pain. She felt as though her veins might burst at any mont, threatening to release blood from her body due to the relentless clash of energies within her.
Kisha hadn't anticipated such a violent reaction, especially after wearing the necklace.
The problem likely stemd from the fact that the mana now coursing through her body was more abundant than her spiritual energy, which was only around 300. This imbalance was causing the two types of energy—each with its own distinct flow and nature—to clash rather than blend harmoniously.
The disparity between them created a disruptive force, preventing a smooth integration of mana and spiritual energy.
Kisha felt her vision fading to black, a clear sign that her body was on the brink of collapse. Desperately, she tried to remove the necklace, hoping to set it aside until she could find a way to balance the two energies or co up with a viable solution. However, no matter how hard she tried, the necklace refused to co off.
Seeing her struggle, Duke rushed to her side, trying to help remove the necklace, but despite their combined efforts, it remained firmly in place.
In a mont of desperation, Kisha's mind raced to find a solution. Then, it hit her—the Achievent Shop she had recently accessed. Without hesitation, she opened it, hoping it might offer a redy or a way to resolve the crisis she was facing.
