My eyes rolled back into my head as I convulsed, mind going completely blank as my body was shredded apart from the inside out without end.
And then, a voice. The System.
[EXP Hold has collapsed.]
[Resuming Absorption...]
[EXP: 2149/2150]
[EXP: 2150/2150]
[Ascension Prerequisites have been met.]
[Initializing Breakthrough to Silver Rank…]
The chaos didn't stop. It multiplied.
My chest constricted even further, straining against something akin to an implosion as the strands of mana in my body tore loose.
But the half-liquid, half-gaseous mass trying to form in its place was shredded the instant it began to condense.
[Mana Condensation Failed.]
[Reattempting...]
The convulsions returned full force as the attempt resumed, my body trying to force the loose strands into a nucleus, but yet again, those waves of wild, uncontrollable mana piled on, imploding everything, bursting apart nearby organs, vaporizing capillaries, and shattering ribs.
