[1 day left.]
Sam spent the entire day moving from one rift to the next, clearing all the hardest [Expert]-rank rifts the Association had given him.
Twelve full rifts. Thousands of monsters.
Each rift would be considered brutal for the average awakener.
Swarms of corrupted beasts, cursed ruins, long-forgotten prisons, forests twisted by the [Forsaken] realm.
But nothing gave him what he needed. And once the last rift was cleared... He checked the panel again.
[Hatred Bar: 0%]
"...Tch."
He hadn't even gone home. He thought staying out, using every second of his time, might help him raise the bar.
Maybe a surprise trigger. Maybe something hidden. But it was all for nothing.
He didn't gain any level, nor power. And the [Hatred Bar] hadn't moved even a single percent.
Sam's shoulders dropped as he sighed, the irritation clear on his face.
"...Great. Waste of time."
