[+1000% Mental]

Sylas blinked.

For a moment, he felt a bit silly ignoring the notifications. What was this? And why couldn’t he feel it properly?

An additional 1000% to his Mental? What sort of Title was this?

As far as Sylas knew, the only time he had ever heard of “Paragon” was in certain ranking systems.

Classic, Mythic, Epic, Ascendant, Eternal, Titan…

Classic Dungeons were top 1000 in a District in terms of difficulty, while Titan Dungeons were top 100 in an entire galaxy.

But then beyond them were Primordial, Transcendent, and then Paragon Dungeons.

A Primordial Dungeon was the undisputed strongest Dungeon in a galaxy, a Transcendent Dungeon was a top 1000 Dungeon across an entire Sector, and then there was a Paragon Dungeon…

The undisputed strongest Dungeon in a Sect.

The trouble with this ranking system was that it was all relative. When it said “strongest,” it was all by Grade, and there were also various intricacies hidden within this nest-egg sort of system. They were still divided by F-Grade, E-Grade, and so on…

But this Title… was it really divided by Grade? Why didn’t it feel like it?

There was a sudden rush in Sylas’s body, and he felt like a bomb had gone off in his head.

It was only now Sylas realized why he hadn’t noticed this Title. Unlike his Professions or his Progeny Title, this one hadn’t taken root immediately.

Sylas braced himself for some sort of pain, but it didn’t come. It was almost like… it was external to him? Like he was being connected to some sort of higher presence, almost like he was in the UniForge again.

‘Is this why it’s a Contested Title?’

It didn’t even really feel like it was Sylas’s own. It was like he was carrying around something that had been with someone else for a decent period of time, and it could also be taken away at any moment.

That also explained something else. This was a reward not from the All-Seeing Eye, but instead from the current system. That was why it hadn’t quite taken root yet.

But the question was… was he going to be targeted for this Title?

Sylas didn’t need the little girl to answer this. He knew that the answer was almost certainly yes. In fact, he was probably already being targeted for it.
