But just as Kael was about to summon his status screen, Aiona suddenly floated closer toward him.
Her tiny face was filled with obvious anticipation.
"So?" she asked enthusiastically. "What do you think about the design?"
Kael blinked once.
Aiona gestured proudly toward the room around them.
"I did some research regarding human living spaces, and apparently pink appears very frequently in descriptions of comfort and happiness, so I decided to go with that theme."
She turned back toward him with sparkling eyes.
"What do you think?"
Kael slowly looked around the room again.
Pink walls. Pink lighting. Pink bed. Pink everything.
The entire place radiated overwhelming feminine energy so aggressively that he almost felt mentally attacked just standing there.
Then his gaze returned toward Aiona.
The tiny guide spirit was staring at him with bright hopeful eyes, looking almost exactly like a child waiting to be praised after proudly showing off something they worked hard on.
Kael stared at her for a few seconds.
Then he silently decided to keep his true thoughts to himself.
He gave a small shrug.
"It’s alright."
Immediately, Aiona beamed brightly.
"I knew you’d like it!"
Kael sighed internally but kept a calm expression outwardly.
Instead, he shifted the conversation elsewhere.
"I want to attempt the next trial in one go," he said. "But before that, I need some time to train and get used to my new strength."
Aiona quickly nodded.
"Okay then!"
After saying that, she floated back toward the miniature pink house sitting at the corner of the room before disappearing inside it.
The tiny door shut behind her.
Kael finally turned his attention back toward himself.
"Alright," he muttered quietly.
"Time to see how strong I’ve gotten."
He could already feel it.
The changes inside his body were massive.
Eighteen levels at once was absurd.
The pain had been hellish, but the amount of strength he gained from it was equally ridiculous.
Without hesitation, Kael summoned his status screen.
The familiar translucent blue interface appeared before him instantly.

Kael stared at the screen silently.
Then he slowly nodded to himself.
"Yeah..."
This was insane.
His level had jumped from eight all the way to twenty-six.
And his stats had practically doubled.
The increase in power was absurd.
But surprisingly, the thing that caught his attention the most was not the stats themselves.
It was another section entirely.
The skill tab that had appeared on his status screen.
Kael’s breathing paused slightly.
"...A skill tree?"
His eyes narrowed.
That should not have happened yet.
Normally, awakened individuals did not unlock their skill tree until far later. Around Level Fifty at the earliest from what he remembered.
But his had already awakened now.
Kael quickly focused on the information, and the moment he saw it his eyes widened slightly.
The skill tree had awakened at Level Twenty.
That was unbelievably early, and more importantly, incredibly beneficial.
Currently, he only had one available skill slot, but the next would unlock at Level Forty, then another at Level Sixty.
