—----------------------------------------------------—

The stench of ozone and dissolving monster flesh filled the air.

Han Jin stood at the shattered window, as a silent, terrifying sentinel.

With each passing minute, another Void Scout would attempt to breach the classroom, only to be met by a swift, brutal end.

He wasn't just killing them; he was annihilating them with casual contempt.

His movements were fluid, precise, and utterly devoid of wasted effort.

He wasn't even using fancy techniques, just raw, terrifying strength and a touch of the Rusty Paperclip's subtle logic bending.

[BING! Void Scout slain! Experience Gained: 50. Level Up! Level Up! Level Up!]

[Current Level: 6]

[Reward: 30 'Stat Points'.]

"More stat points," Han Jin muttered, flexing his now significantly more muscular arm. "System, put it all in Agility.

I can kill them, but dodging their acidic blood is still annoying."

[Agility: 4 -> 34]

[System Note: User's physical form is now capable of extreme acceleration. Please be mindful of local gravitational pull when jumping.]

"My gravitational pull is just fine," Han Jin scoffed.

"It's the Earth's pathetic pull that needs adjusting."

Behind him, the students huddled, their fear slowly morphing into a dazed awe.

Fatty Wei had stopped hiding and was openly recording Han Jin with his phone, his commentary a series of reverent gasps.

"Bro... he just roundhouse kicked that one into orbit! And he didn't even drop his phone! Wait, he doesn't have a phone..."

Lin Xi, however, was in deep thought.

She was no longer clutching her wrist. Instead, her eyes were scanning Han Jin, measuring his every move.

When another Void Scout lunged, she watched as Han Jin casually stepped aside, the monster's momentum carrying it past him before he snapped its neck with a casual flick of his wrist.

"He's not just using the System," Lin Xi whispered, her voice barely audible. "He's manipulating it.

And that Paperclip... it's not just a physical item. It's a Conceptual Anchor."

[System Note: Lin Xi (Entity Designation: 'Andromeda Recorder 7'), you are speaking too loudly. User Han Jin's 'Perception' has been artificially enhanced. He can hear you.]

Lin Xi flinched, her eyes widening. "He can hear—?"

"Of course I can hear you, Recorder 7," Han Jin said, without even turning around. Another monster dissolved behind him. "And yes, this Paperclip is quite useful. Though I prefer to call it 'The Universal Debugger'."

The ground outside began to shake.

The purple sky intensified, swirling into a vortex above the school.

The remaining Void Scouts scattered, screeching in terror, fleeing from something far larger and more dangerous.

"Ah," Han Jin said, a flicker of genuine interest in his eyes. "Finally, a proper warm....up."

From the swirling vortex, a truly colossal creature descended.

It was a mass of obsidian-black chitin, with multiple glowing red eyes and four massive, scythe-like arms that crackled with dark energy.

It was easily the size of a small school bus.

[Monster Identified: Void Abomination - First Wave Alpha (Rank: D)]

[Danger Level: Catastrophic for Mortals. Immediate Retreat Advised!]

"Retreat?" Han Jin scoffed, a predatory gleam in his eyes.

"Little toy, in my era, this was considered a training dummy for newly ascended cultivators."

The Void Abomination roared, a sound that vibrated through Han Jin's very bones.

It raised one of its massive scythe-arms, and the air shimmered as it ripped a fissure in reality, aiming directly for the classroom.

"Oh, a spatial attack?" Han Jin mused. "How quaint. And sloppy."

He didn't activate a skill.

He didn't even use the paperclip.

He merely channeled a minuscule fraction of his suppressed cultivation, just enough to create a tiny ripple in the fabric of space.

The Abomination's spatial fissure, instead of ripping the classroom apart, suddenly folded in on itself, becoming a small, harmless portal that opened briefly to show a glimpse of a bustling, futuristic alien city before snapping shut.

The Void Abomination paused, its red eyes blinking in confusion.

It roared again, this time with frustration.

"System," Han Jin said, his voice flat. "I still have those 'Sovereign's Aura' skill points, correct?"

[System Note: Affirmative. The 'Sovereign's Aura' skill has been unlocked. Would User like to activate?]

"No," Han Jin replied. "But dump all remaining skill points into its 'Intimidation Factor'.

Max it out.

I want this thing to understand its place in the cosmic hierarchy."

[Sovereign's Aura (Intimidation Factor) MAXED!]

[Warning! Extreme pressure may cause physical distress to surrounding lower-ranked entities!]

Han Jin simply looked at the Void Abomination.

He didn't move.

He didn't speak.

He just looked at it.

And the Abomination froze.

Its multiple red eyes widened, not with rage, but with a sudden, primal terror.

It was as if it had just seen the very concept of its own insignificance, the overwhelming, crushing weight of a true cosmic apex predator.

Its chitin armor seemed to crack under the invisible pressure.

Its dark energy withered.

The creature whimpered.

It wasn't a roar of anger; it was a high-pitched whine of pure, existential dread.

Then, with a desperate, guttural cry, the Void Abomination turned tail.

It didn't fly away; it scrambled, burrowing back into the purple vortex in the sky, leaving a trail of black ichor and a fading scent of fear.

The purple sky began to dissipate.

The Dimensional Incursion Warning sirens sputtered and died.

The classroom door flickered back into existence.

[BING! Emergency Quest: Guard the Testing Room! COMPLETE!]

[Reward: 'Sovereign's Aura' Skill (Passive: MAXED!)]

[System Note: User's solution was... unexpected. The 'Intimidation Factor' was not intended for 'boss' entities. Internal logic error. Proceeding to a self-diagnostic reboot.]

The blue screen flickered, distorted, and vanished.

Han Jin turned to the stunned classroom. Mrs. Zhang was still hyperventilating, but now it was from sheer relief.

Fatty Wei had dropped his phone and was staring at Han Jin with the reverence of a zealot.

Lin Xi was simply... staring, her face devoid of all pretense of a human mask.

"Well," Han Jin said, dusting off his hands. "That was... inefficient.

Now, is the cafeteria open? I could really go for some fried rice."

AN:-

My man is just standing there and killing, superman can't even reach even a minimum of Han Jin's AURA.

... POWERSTONES AND COLLECTIONS.....

Han Jin shares his aura with you all, so hurry...
