Chapter 131: New Skill Wrath of Thunder?
Aiden, after breaking the limit of his strength, agility, and stamina, felt like he could do anything. But seeing his big sis's sleeping face, he decided to continue with his other stats.

So he took out the 16 green stones and decided to continue with his vitality stats, which were the lowest of all. As he used the first stone, his vitality increased by 0.2, and after six more stones, his vitality finally reached 10.1, breaking the limit.
He felt a surge of energy inside his body, which was different from strength—it felt like he could recover even more quickly, giving him a pleasant surprise.
He felt the rate of this energy wouldn't be normal at all, so he looked at his stats, and after seeing 550 health instead of 110, his earlier speculation was confirmed. But he wasn't about to hurt himself to test it right now.
There were now only 9 green stones left for him to use, and he was relieved to know that his intelligence had already broken the limit, or else the stones wouldn't have been enough.
He continued with his defense stat, which was already close, using the stones one by one as the green light entered his body repeatedly, making his entire body tougher and more resilient than before.
Luckily, after using the last stone, his defense reached 10.1, and now he could feel that even if someone hit him with a baseball bat at full strength, he could take it without even flinching or getting much hurt.
Lastly, he focused on his mana stat, which was already at 9.5 and guaranteed to break the limit. He absorbed the stones one by one, a leisurely expression on his face, as the mana inside his body increased with each use.
'Damn, it only increased by 0.1 with every stone. This is such a scam.'
With the particles of blue light entering his body, his mana finally broke the limit. However, he didn't notice any major change as the amount of mana inside his body was only a little above the 10 mark.
But before he could think more, a large amount of blue mana, visible only to him, started to enter his body, merging with the existing mana and becoming five times more potent than before.
'Hmm, this is good. I now feel like I'll need very little mana to cast a spell like the one my big sis used on the dummy.'
He realized he could now freely use mana in battle, and this excited him. Now, he was just waiting for his big sis to wake up.
He looked at his watch on his left arm and, seeing how it had been almost 25 minutes, knew she would wake soon. He decided to check her stats to see if her mana had started to increase or not.
[Character Information]
[Name: Alicia Cross]
[Age: 18]

[Talent: Lightning Affinity (S+), Earth Affinity (AA+), Illusion Affinity (CCC+)]
[Potential: SS]
[Mana Cultivation: Mortal Realm]
[Bloodline: None]

(Stats Limit of Mortal Humans: 10)
Seeing how her mana was still zero, he decided to wait. However, his eyes drifted to her skill section, and his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets as his breathing became erratic.
'S–SSS skill? B–but how?' Realization dawned upon him as he continued his thoughts.
'Does that mean the skill she used earlier was an SSS skill she created in anger?'
A helpless laugh escaped his mouth.
'Why does it seem like my big sis is more of a chosen one than me? Without the system, I don't think I'd come close to her shadow.'
Seeing the unexpected surprise his big sis had given him, his anger toward her actions lessened quite a bit.
'If I got an SSS-rank skill every time I passed out, I'd sleep for a day.'
Still, one thing confused him. He'd seen the SSS rank for the first time but had expected more, like the bones turning to ashes, as it was the highest-ranking skill he'd ever seen.
The system, seeing that he still didn't understand the deadliness of the thunder, decided to enlighten the fool a little with a dominant voice inside his head.
'The only reason the zombie's entire body didn't turn to ashes is that she didn't have enough mana, so don't underestimate an SSS-rank skill.'
'Turning the body to ashes is only one of its perks. This spell can even destroy the soul of a person who gets hit by it. Hehehe, I think you know what happens when a soul gets destroyed.'
Aiden felt a chill run through his spine as he realized that someone whose soul was destroyed would never be able to reincarnate.
Knowing the actual power of the spell made him a little afraid, but since his big sis had the skill, he felt relieved. He couldn't even imagine what would happen if an enemy had it.
'But more importantly, I can copy this skill from her. Haha! I can't wait for tomorrow to copy another one of her talents and this skill.'
Five minutes passed, and Alicia's body started to wriggle slightly in his arms, indicating she was waking up. Aiden hid the excitement from his face, maintaining a stern expression.
Alicia opened her eyes to see her little brother looking at her sternly. She slowly started to remember what had happened earlier, and a docile look appeared on her face.
'Ahhhh! I messed up… I lost consciousness out of anger and used all my mana.'
'But the red lightning I created was deadlier than I imagined.'
She'd seen the zombie's body before falling unconscious, but that wasn't why she thought it deadly. After waking up, unknown information had appeared in her mind about a deadly skill.
Seeing the rank of her new skill on her green screen, she knew she had created something that could change the tides of battle. After learning about its soul-targeting capability, she knew she had to use it carefully.
'I'll use this skill on anyone who tries to hurt my brother.' For her, even erasing the soul of someone who only liked her brother seemed extreme.
For now, she focused on the more immediate concern: her brother was only looking at her without saying anything, so she spoke in a meek voice.
"I–I'm s–sorry, A–Aiden. I just g–got a little angry, and that happened."
Aiden, hearing her say that a little anger caused this, felt a chill and couldn't imagine what would happen if she got too angry. He had already decided not to go easy on her, but now he'd be even more strict.
"Big sis, do you know how worried you made me?"
Alicia only nodded her head, remembering the days when he was in a coma, which had been a nightmare for her. With a guilty face, she apologized again.
"I'm sorry. I'll never do that again."
Aiden understood what she meant, and seeing how guilty and sorry she looked, he thought he could forgive her this time.
"Of course! Don't ever do this again, do you understand?"
He got a meek nod in response.
"I'll forgive you this time, but there's no next time."
Alicia's expression was still one of suspicion, as she didn't think he would forgive her so easily without any punishment for something so big.
"Do you really forgive me? I can even offer you bo–"
Aiden stopped her, knowing where she was going, as they were talking freely, and the ladies around him could hear clearly.
Of those listening, most of them could tell she was going to offer her body, and they now had no doubts about their relationship's immorality.
'They've definitely done those things before.'
All of them had only fought since childhood, so they weren't immune to dirty talk, as even Ava and others showed a small blush for a few seconds.
Alicia genuinely wanted to give her as a punishment as she thought it was the best thing she could offer to her brother but seeing how her brother stopped her she chose to stop.
She could see an annoyed expression on his face and now she realized she had messed up and the next whispering words she heard afterward made her cry from her soul.
"Big sis I think I have gone easy on you so I have decided there is no sleeping together tonight."
Experience magic on m,v,l,e,mpy,r.
Realizing his words tears started to leak from her deep black eyes.
