Chapter 59 : Level 4
"Incredible!" Said Lilia, her tone filled with astonishment and a hint of shock as she gazed at Alex, who firmly stood at level 4, it's not that she didn't expect it, after all Alex already told her that he would push to reach level 4 in one go.
However, hearing about it and witnessing it wasn't the same thing. Even though she was prepared for it, it still greatly surprised her, as her husband had just achieved something that a genius would need years to accomplish in just a few hours.
'Even that is due to the fact that he needed to absorb monsters core one by one, if he could absorb them in one go perhaps he may have reached level 4 in just a few minutes' thought Lilia.
"Truly fascinating!" Exclaimed Scarlett with shining eyes next to Lilia while looking at a sort of screen that was relied on to her huge ECG.
"What are you talking about ?" Asked Lilia, having her interest piqued.
"It's like he doesn't have a limit. A normal person would have caved the moment they reached level 2 because they need to consolidate their foundation, but also because their internal organs—mostly the heart—can't keep absorbing mana. If that person persists and continues absorbing mana, they would die, or in extreme cases, explode," Scarlett glanced at Alex and continued.
"However, it's not the case for Dad. In his case, the moment he reaches a level, he doesn't need to consolidate his foundations because they are already perfect. So, he can just continue absorbing mana, and regarding the fact that one's body can't keep up if it absorbs too much mana, it's actually the opposite for him. The more mana he absorbs, the more his body craves it. It's comparable to a thirsty person who has finally found water and can't stop drinking, but, that person's thirst doesn't end, no matter how much they drink."
Scarlett stopped for a moment before saying, "I don't know how much this artifact has transformed his body, but it's like he currently doesn't have a limit, or—"
"Or that his limits are beyond level 4, at the very least," said Lilia, finishing Scarlett's sentence.
Scarlett nodded her head continuing, "Also there is the fact that with each level up our bodies release some impurities, but in dad's case not an once of impurities was released as-"
"As if his body doesn't have any impurities anymore" said Lilia, cutting off Scarlett again.
"Can you stop doing that ?" Said Scarlett with an annoyed tone as she understood that her mother was cutting her off on purpose.
"Doing what ?" Asked Lilia in an innocent tone while thinking inwardly' It's hilarious to mess with her'.
"I know that you are doing it on purpose, stop it!"
"I don't know what you are talking about" said Lilia while shaking her head, making Scarlett even more annoyed.
Meanwhile, as the girls were busy bantering, Alex was deep in thought as he carefully inspected his body to understand how much his strength had increased.
'I can't believe it, this much strength, it's intoxicating' thought Alex gleefully.
He could clearly feel it, he was so much more powerful than before that he couldn't help but wonder how he had spent his entire life in such a feeble state.
'Let's see how my stats improved'
'status'

'Hmm, each one of my stats increased by 50, and they are still uniform, well, besides my stamina and mana points, which are higher than the others, but that's understandable,' thought Alex.
After checking his status for a few more seconds, Alex dismissed it and finally turned to walk towards the girls.
"Okay, okay, that's enough, you two," said Alex when he was finally near them.
They glanced towards the approaching Alex, each prepared to say something, but then they froze.
'So handsome' thought both the mother and daughter as they looked at Alex.
Now that he was level 4, Alex had become even more handsome than he was back then, His long, silver hair seemed to have a sort of shining halo surrounding them, his beautiful gray eyes shined like two radiant stars. His nose became exquisitely sculpted, and his lips were so mesmerizing that when looking at him, one was compelled to kiss him.
His whole face gained a sort of sharpness that wasn't there before, making him become like a work of art, and like it wasn't enough, his flawless, unblemished skin exuded a soft radiance, and his sculpted, toned physique showcased perfectly defined abs and chiseled muscles. He appeared as if chiseled by the gods themselves, a living masterpiece of unparalleled beauty.
"What is it with you ?" Asked Alex as he looked at the pair of mother and daughter that were practically drooling at this point.
Upon seeing the blush on their faces, he grasped the situation and said in a smug, narcissistic tone, while using his hand to stroke his hair, "I see that the both of you have succumbed to my divine handsomeness."
