Chapter 78 Growth Through Agony
Steven’s face immediately turned red.
“Grandpa, seriously, no way. I still stay at the academy most of the time.”
Brian looked as though he could read every thought in Steven’s mind.
“You think I don’t understand what kind of brat you are?”
Steven laughed awkwardly. “I won’t. Seriously. Don’t worry.”
Brian replied indifferently, “Go rest for a while. You’re only causing trouble here.”

Steven scratched his head helplessly. He clearly entered the kitchen to help, so how did he somehow become the troublesome one?
Even so, he returned to his room.
Truthfully, he was completely exhausted. He forced himself to endure until now.
The instant he lay down on the bed, overwhelming exhaustion swept through him.
Using the Beast–Type Divine Sigil’s power almost emptied all his psychic strength and stamina.
But this also was not the right moment to perform “Beast Energy Conversion.”
Before he realized it, he already fell asleep.
He did not wake up again until dinner time.
The four of them ate together, drank a little wine, and treated it as a farewell gathering.
After entering the academy, they no longer returned home every single day.
That night, after everyone finished washing up, they each returned to their own rooms.
Bianca and Vanessa slept together in the same bed.
“Sweetheart,” Vanessa called softly.
“What is it, Mom?”
Vanessa stared toward the dark ceiling. The darkness concealed the complicated emotions in her eyes.
“Sweetheart, you choose Steven, and I support your choice. But the two of you are about to live in the same house, so there are things you must understand clearly. You’re both still young.”
The moment Bianca heard that, her face instantly became,burning hot in the darkness.
“Mom, what are you talking about…”
“That kind of thing won’t happen…”

“Alright. I believe you. I’m only reminding you. Even though you’re young, you’re adults now. Some things, you need to think about carefully yourselves.”
Bianca’s voice became extremely soft.
“Mom, I understand.”
She buried her face into the pillow.
In truth, she already thought about those things before.
But this was Steven.
She liked him…
Things like that would probably happen naturally one day, right?
She could not keep rejecting Steven forever.
Just imagining it made her feel embarrassed enough to die.
Steven probably was not in such a rush either… right?
She was still so thin….
Steven sat cross–legged on his bed.
Looking at the pile of beast crystals removed from the storage space converter, excitement burned brightly in his eyes.
There were one hundred twenty–six of them!
And one level 2 crystal.
That meant the total equaled one hundred thirty–six!
Sure enough, doing missions truly was the fastest way.
“Damn… how many levels do I gain tonight?”
He rubbed his hands together impatiently.
“But converting 136 at once probably takes forever. If someone interrupts me tomorrow morning, that’ll be annoying…
“Maybe I prepare 50 first…”
Steven nodded.
Yeah. There was no need to hurry.

Then he stored the remaining beast crystals away.
With a single thought, his consciousness instantly entered that illusory space.

Based on what he observed so far, once all four stats reached 100, he became an SSS–rank Beast–Type Divine Sigil level 10.
The stat foundation probably changed at that stage as well.
