Sora spent a while training, achieving basic proficiency in most of the skills he had purchased within the [Ascension Tower].
'A few months should have passed inside the [Ti Space]. If monsters respawned faster, they would have reached level 180 by now. But knowing them, they've probably made good use of the breaks between battles.'
Feeling Kara's attempt to pull him into the [Ti Space], Sora waved his hand, wiping out all the remaining monsters in the area. Canceling the summoning of his clones, he watched as the area he had destroyed dozens of tis began to regenerate.
Trees sprouted once more, and hills that had disappeared reford.
'I'm sorry for destroying the Gashaka-Gumti National Park over and over... But it looks brand new again!' He bowed politely to the area.
Satisfied with the experience he had gained, Sora accepted Kara's call and reappeared inside the [Ti Space].
The sight that greeted him was chaos. Two groups clashed in an intense battle.
On one side stood hundreds of human-like figures, including familiar faces like Emily's, Salim's, and even his own—clones of players he had encountered inside and outside the tower. Beside them were undead and beasts.
The undead fought with strict discipline, forming two deadly squads, while the familiars fought chaotically, so even standing back to watch.
Sora sighed. "What a ss." The three groups didn't act like allies but seed to be competing.
On the other side were thousands of monsters—creatures he had gathered and sent into this space.
Ignoring the battle, Sora scanned the area and spotted two familiar figures talking in the distance. He vanished and reappeared beside them.
Kara smiled warmly, sensing his arrival. Greeting him with a hug, she said, "Long ti no see. You should spend more ti with us too. Don't you need to train?"
Alius frowned and crossed his arms. "You're not the only ones here. Show so respect to the people around you!"
Sora laughed at his remark and walked over to give Alius a hug as well. "Jealous? Co here, big bro's got a hug for you too."
Alius felt a force trying to hold him still and imdiately released a powerful wave of energy, breaking free from Sora's hold. "It's not so easy to bully now!"
Sora raised an eyebrow, impressed. Only soone who had reached the limit in energy level could free themselves from . "You've hit the energy level cap? Congratulations!"
Glancing above Alius's head, Sora checked their status.
[Alius – Level 160]
[Kara Spirine – Level 165]
Even if they tried hiding their levels with their [Liar's Masks], Sora would have been able to see through it with his ntal power.
'It seems that Kara's gains in the tower include a good rise in her talent level, while Alius is farming experience for millions of familiars and undead…' Sora thought, understanding the gap in level between his friends.
Alius shrugged at the praise. "With my Talent Level, it's not hard to reach the limit when I'm so close to the maximum level. I've also maxed out Body Level and ntal Power, but my skills are still far weaker compared to yours and Kara's."
He paused, reflecting. "Spending ti here has made understand the gap between players like , with high talent but no ti to develop—and monsters like you two, who've honed your skills to their limits or use insanely strong [Supre Skills]."
Sighing, Alius added, "I think it's impossible for to beco an all-rounder like you without decades of training or additional [Supre Skills]. Instead, I'll focus on Soul Power—researching it, refining it, and making those kids invincible." He gestured toward the battlefield, where his undead and familiars fought together. Warmth and pride lit up his expression.
Giving up on trying to walk in Sora's footsteps, Alius had chosen his own path.
Sora shifted his attention to Kara as she spoke up. "Sa here. I've reached the limits for all three stats, and I've accumulated an infinite amount of life force during this training period. I also harvested the ti of tens of thousands of beasts."
Sora was surprised. "That's good news! Did it have the effect we were expecting?"
Kara nodded. "Hope was right. I can't show you my [Ti Palace], but it's started evolving—it's becoming a small village. 'She' has improved significantly in appearance, and my soul power increases steadily every ti I absorb harvested ti. Since I started absorbing ti, I've gained about four thousand soul levels. As for the four level 180 players I harvested, they only gave about ten soul levels each. It's a pitiful amount compared to the speed at which Alius refines [Soul Pearls]."
Sora turned to Alius, a hungry look in his eyes. "Tell you've made millions of [Soul Pearls] since you got here. Where's my share?"
Alius laughed at his greed and shook his head. "My [Infinite Soul Core] hasn't been able to form [Soul Pearls] since I entered this space. I don't think the process can be accelerated here."
Disappointed, Sora let it go. After catching up for a few more minutes, Kara took a deep breath and said, "Sora, I think it's ti."
Confused, he tilted his head. "Ti for what?"
She t his gaze. "I want to revive Sarsha."
Sora's expression shifted from confusion to realization. "Sarsha… That Dark Elf Colonel, right?"
Kara nodded. "Yes. I think we're leagues ahead of her now, and I'm confident she can't harm any of us."
"You're probably right," Sora agreed. "This is the perfect ti for it. I can even browse through her mories to see if there's anything interesting about Dark Elves."
Kara shot him a frosty glare, and he quickly added, "Kidding. Don't worry."
'That was close. Was she about to scold ?' he thought, sweat forming on his forehead.
Kara sighed. "If she's unwilling to cooperate, you can check her mories, but don't do anything weird."
Sora raised an eyebrow at the remark but refrained from asking what she ant.

He watched as Kara activated her [Life Force Mastery] skill, focusing on the [Soul Preservation] effect. Slowly, a small orb of life force and dense soul power materialized in front of her.
The orb pulsed with energy, glowing brighter with each passing mont. Sora and Alius watched intently as it began to change, gradually taking on a humanoid form. Kara's focus remained high, her [Life Force Mastery] skill controlling the process with precision.
The outline of the figure beca clearer, growing more defined as the orb continued to evolve. Dense layers of Life Force and Soul Power mixed, forming the details of a body. Slowly, the Dark Elf Colonel, Sarsha, began to materialize.
Her long black hair cascaded down her back, contrasting sharply with her light skin, faintly tinted with hints of purple. Her closed eyes, frad by thick lashes, gave her an air of serene beauty, even in her unconscious state.
It was only then that Sora and Alius realized sothing—they had never truly seen Sarsha before. The assassin gear she wore in the past had hidden most of her features, leaving only glimpses of her eyes and a portion of her hair visible.
Now, with her appearance fully revealed, it was clear she was beautiful. Her features were elegant and her fra perfectly proportioned.
Sora noticed her lack of clothing first, and before Kara could react, he quickly turned away, grabbing Alius by the shoulder and spinning him around as well.
"So… how's the weather in the [Ti Space] lately?" Sora asked, feigning interest.
Alius rolled his eyes. "Really? You couldn't find anything better to say? I was you in the past, I know that dark elf woman is your type..."
Sora who had his hand on Alius' shoulder clenched his fingers, and Alius' scread in pain.
Behind them, Kara laughed softly at the duo's antics. Waving her hand, she materialized a set of clothes and quickly dressed the unconscious Dark Elf.
"You can turn around now," she said, amusent still evident in her tone.
Sora and Alius cautiously turned back, their expressions neutral as if nothing had happened. Kara smirked but didn't comnt further.
Sarsha lay on the ground, her breathing steady and her body completely restored. Kara placed a hand on her chest, activating her [Life Force Mastery] skill to confirm her condition.
[Sarsha - Level 114]
"She's exactly the sa as she was before her death," Kara announced. "Her level hasn't changed, and all her power seems to have been restored."
Sora stepped closer, his [Mana Eyes] activating as he scanned Sarsha. The flow of mana through her body was normal. Using [Peerless Mind Forging], he controlled his ntal power, analyzing the state of her mind for any problems.
"She's in perfect condition," he confird.
Alius approached next, summoning his [Soul Dominion] skill. A faint glow enveloped Sarsha as he examined her Soul Power. After a mont, he nodded. "I understand now. All remnants of her soul were perfectly captured at the ti of her death. Nothing was scattered, and your Supre Skill seed to perfectly preserve all of it.."
"Now that I dabble in Soul Power, I feel that your Supre Skill is incredible, Kara..." Alius praised.
Kara knelt beside Sarsha, placing a hand on her forehead. "Wake up, girl. Your life is not over."
