Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 587

Chapter 587 131.1 - Alden Evergreen

I took a deep breath, letting the residual energy settle within me as the effects of the Sylvara's Essence finally calmed. I felt… different. Lighter, stronger. It was as if my body had been revitalized from the inside out, filled with a new vitality that made every muscle feel more responsive, every movement smoother. The entire process had been painful—far more than I had expected—but the end result was worth it. I could feel the difference, not just in strength but in every fiber of my being.

'This… is quite the transformation,' I thought, flexing my fingers experimentally. My senses were heightened, sharper. Mana flowed through me with a clarity and ease that hadn't been there before. It was almost effortless now, as if the barriers that had once held me back had been stripped away.

"Junior…" Maya's voice pulled me from my thoughts, and I glanced over at her. Her eyes were wide, still locked onto me with a mix of shock and something else I couldn't quite place.

"What is it?" I asked, my voice smooth and composed, though a part of me was curious about her reaction. Something had clearly caught her off guard.

Maya shook her head, then gestured toward the small mirror by the side of the room. "Take a look for yourself."

I stood up slowly, feeling the newfound strength in my legs, and walked over to the mirror. As I caught sight of my reflection, I understood why Maya had been staring.

My face—while still recognizably mine—had changed. It was subtle but undeniable. My features had sharpened and refined to an almost ethereal level, giving me a striking, almost otherworldly appearance. My skin seemed to glow faintly with an inner light, and my purple eyes… they were more intense now, shining with a depth I hadn't seen before.

'I see…..'

I thought as I stared at my reflection. My appearance had never been something I gave much thought to. My focus had always been on strength, honing my abilities, and perfecting my skills. Superficial things like looks were secondary at best.

Yet, here I was, staring at someone who seemed… different. Sharper.

In the game, there was a hidden stat called Charisma. It wasn't something you could actively level up like strength or dexterity, and it didn't show up in the usual status window. Most players didn't even know it existed, but it had an effect—a subtle one. Charisma influenced how characters interacted with the world around them, how people perceived them, how easily they could sway others or command attention without saying a word. It wasn't tied to magic or combat prowess, but it could be just as powerful.

And now, with Sylvara's Essence, it felt like that hidden attribute had been touched.

'Status.'

As I called the status window in my head, the panel appeared right before my eyes.
