Several hours later,
"Yawn",
Ray woke up after a long sleep. His body was energetic and he felt extrely light. As if he could use the wind to levitate himself as a feather. Furthermore, all of his previous exhaustion was gone causing Ray extre relief.
Ray stood up from his bed and took a look in the mirror. After looking in the mirror he realized that his appearance was not what he felt it should be. His hair was disheveled, his clothes had spots left due to excess sweat from training after the breakthrough.
Lastly, he slled. Even he could not bear it. Moreover, the sll was so bad that it was spread within the whole room. Due to this, the room slled of rotten eggs and spoiled food.
Ray could not take it any further. He hurriedly used his ability to form a barrier and covered the whole room with a barrier. Then, he focused only on the air within the room and enclosed the barrier while slowly condensing the air within.
Like this, the sll that remained within the air also condensed into the barrier and ford a highly compressed stink bomb made of air. Ray then simply stored the bomb within his inventory.
He thought of using the bomb later on as a distraction against creatures with a high sense of sll to disorient their senses using the bomb. However, after storing the bomb, a system notification appeared in his consciousness.
[Ding!],
-New skill created,
[Compressed Air Bomb:- Uses 5 mana points to augnt a barrier to compress air into an air bomb. Causes an area of effect explosion within a 10-ter radius].
p
He created a skill so easily? And such powerful skill at that? but how?. After all, Ray had never created a skill himself. He had either gotten one from the system by completing missions or from leveling up after killing different sorts of beasts.
So it was a first for him. However, as Ray thought about it, he realized that although it was the first ti he created a skill. It was plausible for him to do so. Not only was he stronger now, than before. He had also condensed a mana core while his system had also unlocked completely bringing out its full potential and features.
Furthermore, the skill was too good. Not only was the mana expenditure moderately low, but it was also an AOE skill that could instantly use air to damage opponents. This way Ray could use this skill in various ways.
Due to this, Ray's lips curved up and a smile ca upon his face that extended to his eyes.
However, Ray did not linger on it for too long and took a bath before conducting any more research about his system.
* * * * *
Ray ca out of the bathtub feeling extrely relaxed. Now that the horrendous sll is gone from his body after the bath his mind felt refreshed and free. He could finally think now.
After changing his clothes, Ray left his room to look for a restaurant as he felt extrely hungry at the mont. It felt as of he had been suddenly starved for weeks if not months.
He found it extrely strange and asked Aurora for a reason about the occurrence of such a strange phenonon, to this she replied,
"Oh yeah, That's completely normal for you to feel starved all of a sudden. The reason for you to feel starved is due to the expulsion of impurities from your body. After all, your body forcefully expels impurities causing your cells to consu more nutrients than usual to achieve a hyperactive state".
Listening to Aurora's explanation, Ray realized that even augntation of mana and usage of the system could not change human biology, and even now, different sciences and their laws ruled supre.
After all, every spell, ability, or any other supernatural action done by humans had so sort of explanation or theory behind it.
Such as, many people could use spells to fly,
However, that was also the product of using either flow of air to counter gravity or manipulation of mass or gravity to levitate and fly in the air.

Ray sat down at a fancy restaurant and ordered a full course al that had bread and soup as starters. While the main course contained a nicely seared dium-rare piece of stake along with a serving of mashed potatoes. While the dessert had a moderate serving of rice pudding.
Furthermore, the at was obtained from the beef of a magical cow that had an extrely soft physique, making the texture of at lt in one's mouth.
Hence, as Ray took the first bite, his mouth experienced a heavenly bombardnt of flavors right after the extrely succulent at lted after entering his mouth. Such a heavenly experience made Ray savor and enjoy his al.
However, that wasn't the greatest outco. The greatest outco was the reward Ray received after he devoured the piece of steak.
It ca in form of stat points as a system notification appeared in his consciousness,
[Consud at of Mutated Sky Cow],
[Gained Dexterity: 1 point],
Ray was delighted when he saw the notification. After all, if he could gain stat points by consuming the at of different beasts, he could simply act like a glutton and get stronger. However, he had so suspicions that it was only related to his system and not everyone had this cheat like the ability to gain stat points in such a way. Therefore, he asked Aurora for confirmation if this stat point he had gained was only special to him due to the system or if everyone gained it.
To this, Aurora replied in a slightly lazy voice,
"Yeah sorry for not telling you, you gained the ability to gain stat points after consuming the at of other beasts and creatures after the system fully unlocked".
Ray was left speechless, although not by the capability of his system but by Aurora's attitude.
He asked Aurora with a tinge of sarcasm,
"You could have told all of this information when you were telling about the changes brought to the system after fully unlocking it".
He then continued,
"You worry Aurora. What if you skimp on so important information soday that could save my life but not knowing it would lead to my death".
To this, Aurora seed as if she could not be bothered and she replied in an upbeat voice,
"Don't worry about that, I will personally accompany you to hell. After all, you are not worthy of heaven",
"Haha",
"This-….",
Ray was stunned and speechless by Aurora's attitude, she made fun of him while her attitude seed to be completely unrestrained. Ray found her attitude have a 180-degree shift lately. Making him wonder,
"What happened for her to change like that and co out of her completely introverted shell in such a short period".
However, Ray could only sigh and wish for Aurora to not skimp on important info. Furthermore, he was also very happy by the fact that Aurora had co out of her shell imposed on her when she slept in a confined space for millennia.
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Little did Ray know that the reason for Aurora coming out of her shell was no one but him. After all, Aurora's consciousness was connected to his. Allowing her to feel his emotions and thoughts.
Furthermore, as he had recently broken through and beco stronger, the connection between him and Aurora also strengthened. Therefore, allowing her to feel Ray's emotions which at the mont we're very upbeat as well.
Therefore, as the system link between Ray and Aurora strengthened, the insecurities and fear of isolation within Aurora also lessened, causing her to gain back her previous unrestrained personality.
