Aether stared at the shimmering blue light suspended in the air. It pulsed with a rhythmic hum, waiting for him to read the secrets it held. He took a deep breath, and the text finally snapped into focus.

*************************

As Aether continued to gaze at the information flickering within the Status Window, his eyes immediately locked onto the Awakened section. Beside the expected mentions of his Mana Core and Mana Heart, there it was: the Rune of Fate.

Seeing it confirmed on the screen made the reality of it sink in. He looked down at his chest, where the rune was still glowing faintly through his skin. He began to think about its origin, the light from the panel reflecting in his eyes as he realized just how much this single mark changed the trajectory of his life.

Next, his gaze shifted to the Talent section. As he read the description for Comprehension, he stood stunned. The system confirmed what he had suspected: because of his two previous lives, his intelligence had effectively doubled. His mind was no longer that of a standard sixteen-year-old; it was a vast library of experiences and logical processing power.

However, that sense of awe quickly turned into a strange, complicated expression when he reached the Attributes section.

"I am even below the average person," he sighed, his voice echoing slightly in the quiet room. It was a bitter pill to swallow. While a normal adult stood at a baseline of ten, his physical stats were lagging behind. But as he looked back at his Intelligence, a smirk returned to his face. "But because of my memories, my mind is double what it should be. I'll take that trade."

Finally, he let his eyes drop to the Abilities section. At first, his expression remained calm as he scanned the basic skills, but as he started reading the specific details under the Rune of Fate, his heart began to race.

His excitement flared. It wasn't just one simple power; the Rune of Fate offered a multitude of different abilities, most of them still waiting to be unlocked. He realized then that he wasn't just holding a tool for survival—he was holding the key to changing destiny itself.
