The people of Earth all looked up when this creature formed of Runes appeared. The roar and cry they had heard only a single time for a brief instant before echoed in their ears over and over again.
They lost themselves, their eyes falling into a trance as they watched.
For many of them, they only felt a slight stir within their bodies, a silent shift that might help in the future or it might not. But ultimately, it would do very little in 99% of circumstances.
But in some…
Everything changed.
They didn't even notice it, but their bodies began to give off Wills of their own and they entered Will Shaping without even noticing what was happening.
Some even entered Will Forging instantly, lost in so much of a trance they couldn't have told the world what was happening to them even if they wanted.
And those people, that small collection of talents that could really feel what was happening…
Their Wills shifted again, not to an even higher level, but instead to a different form entirely…
Their Wills began to spontaneously produce Runes.
Every one of these select few instantly stepped into F-tier Spark Mastery, losing themselves in the sounds.
Sylas sensed every one of them as it happened.
Earth's population right now could be stated to only be a fraction of what it was in the past. Too many people had died to the Tutorial and the after-effects preceding it. Though the death tolls had fallen substantially after Sylas broke them free of the endless cycle that was the Summoning, it had only been less than two years since then and the environment wasn't exactly conducive to baby making.
Setting aside the fact that it was marginally more difficult to have children now than it had been in the past—even as mere F-tiers, there was a slight uptick of difficulty—there were just very few hubs left on Earth that made people feel stable enough to have children.
The only reason Sylas had had children so easily despite his talent and Race Grade was because of the Virtue Lust Seed. By this measure alone, it was certainly one of the most broken of the Virtue Seeds there were.
The idea that it could break past the limitations of bloodline, well…
Maybe Sylas could find out soon that there were some Races that would go pretty far to have someone that could so easily help to reproduce their bloodlines—especially in the Demi-God and even more so on the God Planes.
Of course, Sylas wouldn't become a breeding bull for anyone if he had the choice. But this and that were two different matters.
What was important was that Earth's population could now only be measured in the tens of millions. And yet, amongst that number, over 30,000 Spark Masters appeared.
These were people who had—for the most part—not once touched a Rune in their lives.
But there were others who existed to them adjacently…
