After seeing this, Skysher smiled. His face painted with excitement.
He finally passed through the obstacle he had been tested with since he came into that world.
He slowly watched as the world around him collapsed to its true form.
The towering dunes and stained blood pools of the demonic worms shifting to the unnatural blue cubes.
Each having a unique distinct rectangular shape, and repositioned to bring form to delicate design of futuristic world.
Skysher wondered in amazement, and finally, it all stopped.
There it was, laid out before him.
The majestic blue tower of the system, its height stretching to an unseen dark void above, and its base built on the small shifting cubes.
As Skysher marveled at the marvel of technology before him, the lowest tower level suddenly turned gold!
With no warning, a bright golden light broke out of its structure.
The bright light lingered on for a moment, blinding Skysher temporarily, before finally disappearing back like it came.
Skysher opened his eyes, trying to recapture it all.

'5 points for all of that? You've got to be kidding, and what the hell is this IP anyway?'
Skysher sighed, his mind lingering on the boosted stats he had gotten.
[Boss Loot]
>Wrym Ring!
A black box appeared in front of Skysher, but he was too focused on his mind to even notice it.
The black box opened, to reveal a shining red metal ring, too bright for Skysher not to notice.
Instantly, Skysher felt it. Looking up to see, the floating ring in front of him. He reached out to catch it.
Looking at it surprised.
"Huh? And what the hell is this?"
As soon as he finished talking, a new system window popped up.

Skysher was surprised, sniping a second look at the ring at hand. It looked too good to be true.
Skysher smirked.
"Maybe defeating the Boss was worth it after all," he snapped, throwing the ring in the air and catching it once more.
His happiness didn't last long, however, as his curiosity gripped him again.
His eyes were glued to the golden shining floor he was on, and the other levels of the Tower.
'If defeating one boss got me this, just think what I could get from the bosses there?'
Skysher's eyes gleamed at the other levels. His excitement was bursting out of his tin-headed brain.
Suddenly, excitement took a hike, curiosity jumping back. Skysher's head got flooded with questions, one after the other.
Which level had he become anyway? Was there even a threshold for climbing up the next level, or could he just do it, at this moment?
Skysher needed answers, and wouldn't sleep until he got them answered.
"Open status window."

>Potential unlocked; 0.1%
>Congrats, you are now 0.1% less useless! Yayyyyyy!
Skysher carefully treaded over the details, surprised by his strength and amazing boost in speed.
The lightning crack still sparked in his head!
But that wasn't what he was looking for, he quickly blitzed through the details.
His eyes finally landing on the subject he was looking for. His skills.
There it was, Frost Veil.
"So, it's a D-rank skill," he said, remembering back to when he had been fighting the Devil Worm.
The power boost he got from it, was the main reason why he had won, but how?
Skysher placed his hand on his chin.
'Could it be a suppression skill?' he asked himself.
"Show Skill Details," he said, looking at it.
[Skill Details]
Name; Frost Veil.
Rank; D-rank
Type; Suppression veil
Grade; Unique[Frost Kong's]
Effects: Suppresses the user 1 phase lower than his actual strength, as well as the perception of the user, 3 phases lower than the actual level.
"So that's what it is!"
Skysher bumped his fist into his palm. After reading the skill effects and his stats, he finally understood what it meant.
No wonder he got a boost while disabling it, it had been suppressing him the whole time.
Skysher smiled. He never thought he could acquire such a skill by absorbing the Frost Kong's core.
His journey had been a massive success.
[Ding]
The system rang, showcasing that it had finished its calculation.

>Congrats, you are now decent enough to be called a human being!
Skysher was surprised, his rank had not only gone up by 1 whole level, but his martial level rose to D-rank as well.
That meant that finally, he could practice D-rank Martial Arts.
Skysher smiled, however, his mood instantly changed as he remembered the academy!
"The academy! The mission!" he recalled, his mission given to him by the clerk.
It only had a 2-day period!
By now, it was well over 2 days, if not 5! And he hadn't even started yet.
He needed to get there, and he needed to do it fast!
