Ats reviewed his 30 avaible stat points and thought of how to allocate them. Yet, the real highlight of his current stats wasn’t just those points—it was the staggering total stat points he had accumuted.
At level 49, his total stat points had reached an impressive 674. This was nothing short of extraordinary progress!
His rigorous training over the past few months had unlocked much of his tent potential, earning him bonus stat points at an accelerated pace. The focused aless nature of his training clearly paid off.
Was achieving this kind ress easy?
Not at all. This was still the early phase of his journey, and there was a long road ahead. But the boost from his bond with Manna and Lyrassa had given him a signifit edge, propelling his growth far beyond what would typically be expected.
Ats knew he was far from perfect—there were still tless skills to master, challeo face, and lessons to lear, he had built a solid foundation, orong enough to carry him through his major milestone: level 50 and his css adva.
It wouldn’t take much more. A few more battles, and he’d be there.
Ats had already refined his talents and deepened his affinity with multiple elements over the past three months. This groundwork would py a crucial role iermining the type and grade of the css he’d achieve.
There’s still time.
A few more weeks of preparation. His goal now was clear: to reduce the time it took to defeat the massive troll with the stone club. Instead of two grueling days, he that down to something far more effit.
As he turned, his gaze nded on his team. Their faces lit with excitement.
They returo Gacha Haven and immediately began tidying up and preparing for the usual evening session. As time went on, the team had grown closer, their iions being more natural and effortless.
Ats took another look at his Gacha summary for the Standard Banner.
[Standard Banner Summary:]
[Total tickets used: 180]
[Total Rank-A pulls: 39]
[Total Rank-S pulls: 2]
[ guaranteed Rank-A in 10 pulls]
[ guaranteed Rank-S in 20 pulls]
He hat the remaining standard tickets in his possession would guara least one Rank-S pull! Of course, he was hoping for more than just ohere was no shame in being a little greedy, after all.
Tonight, he po finish off the rest of his standard tickets.
Finally, these tickets will be gone food.
There were still standart characters and standard ons he hadn’t mao acquire yet, so this was a ce he couldn’t pass up.
However, one remained: so far, he hadn’t figured out a way to obtain more standard tickets, except for exging Are Shards to buy them.
But he wasn’t about to waste his shards on those. No, Are Shards were far too valuable—they were better spent on exclusive tickets, which offered far more worthwhile rewards.
Ats took a deep breath as he stood oage, now rebuilt to be sturdier and more spacious. The area was beautifully adorned with flowers and trees.
Ats grinned as he held up his 10 standard tickets. Every eye was on him, anticipation building. Finally, it was time.
With a fident toss, he threw the tickets into the air!
They spun rapidly, glowing as they transformed one by one.
Purple!
“Fire!!!!”
The first pull urple.
Brown, Brown, Purple!
“Fire!”
Another purple—this was already looking good!
Brown, Brown, Brown, Brown.
A sigh of disappoi rippled through the crowd, but two purples were still a solid result.
Then the ninth ticket began to ge color, taking its time. A suspenseful hush fell over the group. Slowly, the glow intensified—
RED!
“Finally!”
“Give me a good t!” Ats ughed, practically shouting iement.
“Yes!”
”Finally!”
“RED!”
The final ticket took even loo reveal its color, the dey stretg everyone’s patience.
“Oh, e on,” Ats muttered, his heart pounding.
Could it be...?
The glow deepened, and the crowd erupted as it turned—
RED!
“Finally!”
“Yes! Two purples and TWO reds!”
This was by far the best pull he’d ever had—two Rank-S rewards in a sibsp;
Ats paused for a moment, letting his euphoria settle. Two Rank-S pulls—it was going to be an incredible night.
Starting with the Rank-B items, he quickly anized and stored them ly into his iory. Then came the first Rank-A item.
He reached out, toug the glowing ticket as it floated before him. It shimmered, vibrating slightly before shooting forward in an intricate dispy.
Ats stepped back, watg as the light coalesced into something unique. When it returo its stationary position, he saw it clearly—a bracelet?
It was sleek and bck. Intrigued, Ats reached out and grabbed the item to i it more closely.
[You have received Rank-A Item: Mountain Leaper Bands]
[Boosts jump height and ndiance.]
“Boost jump?” he murmured, curious.
Without hesitatiorapped the bracelet ht hand.
“My Lord, what’s that item?” a few voices called out from the crowd.
Ats just smiled and crouched slightly, gauging how high he might be able to jump. Then, with a small leap—
“Whoa!”
He jumped several times higher than usual, his excitement growing with each leap.
Testing it further, he performed a series of jumps, gradually increasing his power with each attempt. He carefully gauged the height, being more fident with every motion.
Finally, feeling ready, he crouched deeper, eling his strength, and… unched himself into a powerful jump!
His body shot into the air, s rapidly upward, the ground disappearih him.
For a moment, panic set in as he realized just how high he was s. But then he remembered—the bracelet also reduced the impact of his ndings. Rexing, he allowed himself to take in the breathtaking view.
Suspended high above his isnd, Ats had a vantage point unlike anything he’d experienced before. From up here, he could see everything—his structures, the troops gathered in the tral area, others scattered about tending to various tasks. Some were eating alone, while a few had already fallen asleep beh the trees.
A smile spread across his face. This was the first time he’d seen his domain like this, and it filled him with a sense of pride and calm.
With gravity pulling him back down, Ats angled his body toward the stage, adjusting as best he could to he ter.
He hit the ptform with a solid thud, the impact crag the stage slightly under his weight.
Grinning sheepishly, he realized that Mira was definitely going to scold him for this. But when he looked out at his troops, he was met with enthusiastic appuse. Even Mira, instead of being upset, ping with a bright smile.
Ats couldn’t help but ugh.
The first Rank-A item was undeniably incredible. The Mountain Leaper Bands would be very useful in battle, granting him maneuverability. With the enhanced jump boost, he could easily reposition himself, gain superior vantage points, and evade enemy attacks with precision.
But the night was far from over. There was still another Rank-A pull to cim, two Rank-S pulls waiting in line, and even 10 more standard tickets to burn through.
