Thousands upon thousands of small cubes were in front of Kyle. Every single cube was one cubic decimeter big, and they hovered in front of Manny as he smiled.
"This..." Kyle transmitted as he looked at the cubes with an uncomfortable expression.
"I thought you would be more excited," Manny transmitted with a small laugh.
"I am," Kyle transmitted, "it's just... this is a lot."
"It's not," Manny transmitted. "You have to keep in mind that we're all trying to accomplish the same goal. I have my job to do, and you have your job to do. You're supposed to be our muscle. That means we need to push your Battle-Strength to the highest level."
"You have a responsibility, but how can you live up to your responsibilities if you don't have the necessary resources? For you, getting one cube of every Spacetime Metal is practically impossible without joining Humanity. My position grants me the opportunity to get something that you can't. So, I did."
"Just take and make use of them," Manny transmitted with a smile.
Kyle looked at the cubes in front of him.
One cube of every Spacetime Metal.
He had everything he needed to comprehend the Level Five Law of Spacetime Metal.
Kyle felt it was difficult to accept Manny's gift, but he also knew that he had to. As Manny had said, Kyle had a responsibility, and refusing this gift just because it felt too valuable would equate to neglecting his responsibility.
"Thank you," Kyle transmitted as he put all of the cubes into his Soul Space. "I will not disappoint you."
"I'm sure you won't," Manny answered. "When you're done with the cubes, you should keep the majority of them. Don't sell or waste them. They are valuable sources of Space, Time, and Metal Energies. I'm sure we'll find a way to use them."
Kyle nodded. "I will keep them. If you ever need anything, just tell me. I'll do my best to help you with whatever you need me to do."
"We're working towards the same goal," Manny transmitted. "As long as you keep growing stronger, you'll be doing more than enough. Now, get going! We don't have any time to waste. I want you to shock all of Humanity with your Battle-Strength."
Kyle nodded with conviction. "I will. Just wait for me!"
The two of them said their goodbyes, and Kyle flew towards the closest Sect Branch.

On his way, he felt like an additional weight had appeared on his shoulders. Cognitively, he had known that the team was working towards the same goal, but when he had received Manny's valuable gift, he also realized it emotionally.
Every direct member of Humanity received one wish when they became Legendary Sages. These wishes could be almost anything. There was no way that Manny couldn't have used that wish to improve his own power tremendously.
Most members of Humanity used their wish to request access to a powerful set of Rites. These Rites would not only increase their current Battle-Strength but also their future Battle-Strength.
These powerful sets of Rites could be comprehended on several levels. The highest levels even reached the power of Level 5.5 Complex Laws. If someone trained one of these peak sets to the limit, they could essentially create four Level 5.5 Infused Laws and even a Level Six External Complex Law.
Sadly, it was difficult to train one of these sets to the highest level. If one managed to do it, one would be eligible to become an Ascendant.
A peak set of Rites was called as such because it fulfilled the criteria to become a Unique Spirit Lord. In order to become a Fulfilled Spirit Lord, one's Imposing Law needed to reach a quality of 50% or more, and to become a Unique Spirit Lord, the level of one's Imposing Law also had to reach 50%.
These sets were made with Imposing Laws that barely reached 50% quality, and by training them to perfection, it would be like one had created these Imposing Laws themselves. One would reach 50% in both aspects, giving one the ability to become a Unique Spirit Lord.
Manny could have exchanged for something like this. With all of his knowledge, he probably could have trained these Rites without damaging his foundation.
