Reading through the notifications heʼd received with a look of expectation, Valyr soon nodded in satisfaction as he finally understood what Mystia and the itemʼs description meant in regards to stat distribution.

Considering how both his DEX and INT stat were leagues ahead compared to his other stats, it made sense that the elixir prioritized improving all of the other stats, taking on a similar logic once it began to tackle his hidden stats.

ʼThough the increase is not as substantial when I compare it to the True Rebirth Pill I consumed back then, the stat gains are around twice what I got from consuming the concoctions Faulus gave us back in the inheritance,ʼ thought the young man to himself. Closing his screen after that, he then looked at Mystia with a faint expression of betrayal. ”Remind me next time to not trust in your words again.”

In response, Mystia flashed a bitter smile back at him. ”I canʼt really do much about that. Almost every elixir and pill that has miraculous effects like the one you just consumed tend to come with pain during the absorption process.”

”Think of it as equivalent exchange to the great amount of stats youʼre getting,” continued Mystia as she retracted the iridescent energy sheʼd released earlier.

”Then again, if I didnʼt wrap you in a cocoon of Mystic Energy earlier, you would probably be unconscious right now.”

”...All the more reason for me to learn how to wield Mystic Energy, then,” said Valyr in response, briefly shuddering as he recalled the intense level of pain heʼd briefly experienced just earlier.

”Well, Iʼm glad that youʼre eager to learn more about Mystic Energy,” said Mystia with a smile, returning back to her chair.

”However, letʼs postpone that to sometime later. For now, since youʼve accepted my request of becoming the Mystic Planeʼs Guardian, I suppose itʼs right to tell you the information Iʼve been withholding from you earlier.”

Hearing those words, Valyr went through all of the conversations the two had so far before eventually recalling the one Mystia was talking about.

”So, whatʼs the reason?” asked Valyr as he nodded at her words. ”Why havenʼt you appointed a Legend or a Myth to take up the position of Guardian?”

As this question left his mouth once more, the young man soon came up with a follow-up question. ”Also, are Guardians normal for a plane to have?”

”Iʼll answer your latest question first.” Pondering over Valyrʼs questions for a bit, a pensive expression briefly appeared on Mystiaʼs face as she found the right words to say. ”You could say that Guardians are both rare and common to find at the same time.”

Noticing the slight confusion that appeared on Valyrʼs face from her words, Mystia hastily began to explain. ”What I mean by that is that Guardians are almost nowhere to be found in middle and upper planes.”

”In other words, those are planes that have their concepts and powers recognized by a considerable portion of the universe.”

”After all, the concepts and powers those planes embody are strong enough for other planes to begin thinking otherwise, with many of them not wanting to experience the repercussions of going against those planes.”

”A good example of the planes without Guardians would be the planes corresponding to the four foundational elements. After all, almost every person throughout the universe rely on its concept and power.”

”On the other hand, Guardians are almost necessary in small planes,” said Mystia, giving Valyr time to process everything sheʼd said so far.

”Of course, if youʼve been reading between the lines all the time, then you mustʼve come to the conclusion that the Mystic Plane is a small plane... which it is.”

”Wait... that doesnʼt make sense,” said Valyr in response, his brows slightly furrowed. ”Why would the Mystic Plane be small if Mystic Energy is incredibly versatile?”

As those words left his mouth, Valyr thought about the skill he gained that allowed him to transform Mystic Energy into any element, as well as the feat that Mystia had shown him earlier of reducing the side effects of the Constitution Refinement Elixir.

”Itʼs exactly because Mystic Energy is versatile that the Mystic Plane is small,” replied Mystia, a bitter smile appearing on her face.

”Because of how all-encompassing Mystic Energy is in terms of power, many other planes have eyed the plane to the point that the current plane is only a shell of its former self.”

”Or at least... thatʼs what the Overseer of the Mystic Plane told me after I became its Saintess.” Mystia let out a low sigh. ”In any case, it is true that the Mystic Plane is in danger of

disappearing entirely if neither I nor the Overseer did anything about it.”

”Which is why Iʼve decided to appoint you as the Guardian of the Mystic Plane.” As these words left her mouth, Mystia gave Valyr an apologetic smile.

”The reason why I chose you to become the Guardian is not because we wanted to catch our foes off guard, but because thatʼs the limit of what the Mystic Plane could handle at the

moment.”

”In other words, itʼs not that you donʼt want to have a Legend or a Myth as a Guardian, itʼs that you couldnʼt,” said Valyr, to which Mystia merely nodded in agreement.

”I see.” With Mystia now giving him all of the information he needed at the moment, a large image swiftly began to form in the young manʼs mind, allowing him to get a rough idea of the current situation regarding the Mystic Plane.

With that in mind, the young man decided to fully accept his new position as the Guardian of the Mystic Plane, giving Mystia a reassuring smile as he told her, ”Iʼll do my best not to betray the trust and expectations youʼve put on me.”

In response, Mystia smiled back as she inwardly sighed in relief, her smile the epitome of

sincerity.

”Since you say that, then itʼs only right that Iʼll make sure to help you out to the best of my abilities,” she promised him.

”I swear upon this as both your teacher and the Saintess of the Mystic Plane.”

”After all, with your abilities, Iʼm certain that itʼs only a matter of time until the Mystic Plane fully returns to its former glory.”
