If you are confused about the power system of seimaosu , I recommend you read this breakdown. As the author I know the power system is a bit complex;
Mana-
Mana is the fundamental energy that fills the world and all beings in it.
Mana exists both externally in the environment and internally [mana level].
Internal mana regenerates naturally over time, but excessive usage leads to fatigue or collapse.

Mana Level (ML) and Mana Output (MO)-
All power begins with two things.
Mana Level (ML) is the amount of mana an individual can store within themselves.
If ML is low, there is simply not much mana to work with.
Mana Output (MO) is the amount of mana an individual can release at once.
MO determines how effective skills are—how strong, how wide, how destructive, or how refined they become.
Neither matters on its own.
A high ML with low MO means unused potential.
A high MO with low ML is unsustainable.

Mana Conversion and Energy Derivatives-
Mana itself is the base energy, but over time, the inhabitants of this world learned how to convert mana.
This process is known as mana conversion.
Through conversion, mana can take on different forms of energy, such as:
✓chi
✓aura
✓elemental energy
✓divine energy
✓spiritual energy
✓abyssal or demonic energy
These are not separate systems.
They are derivatives of mana, shaped by the individual, their nature, and their circumstances.

Skill System-
Skills are structured manifestations of mana shaped by will, affinity, and experience.

ML 50 – 199
god-like
ML 200 – 399
Transcendent
ML 400 – 599
Celestial
ML 600 – 999
Cosmic
ML 1000+

Skill Advancement-
Skills advance through;
Significant ML increase or they can be acquired through artifacts
Skills cannot skip grades.
Advanced skills consume more MO and mental focus.
∆∆∆\\∆∆∆
Affinity
Every individual possesses mana affinities, which define what skills they can effectively use.
Using skills outside one's affinity costs extra mana and causes instability.
∆∆∆∆∆∆
Innate Talents
Innate Talents are rare abilities embedded into an individual at birth.
Only a small fraction of beings possess talents.
Talents grow independently of ML.
∆∆∆∆∆\\\∆∆∆
Artifacts
Artifacts are rare objects formed from extreme mana concentration or ancient craftsmanship.

The Seven Sins
The Seven Sins are ancient Supreme Skills created by the First Demon Lord, Bal.
Each Sin evolves through usage and ML
