When his thoughts returned to reality, it felt as if a simulator had just finished its calculations.
Everything that had just happened felt so unreal.
It was like: the past-life simulation is over, now it's time to allocate stat points.
'System, put everything into Magic!'
The thought flashed through his mind, and his focus returned.
April was a maddening month. Studying any form of knowledge carried a chance of incurring a knowledge Curse and corruption.
This was especially true of the leap year's blessing.
On the first of the month, studying anything resulted in a 100% chance of corruption, but there was also an extremely low probability of learning forbidden secrets, triggering a random Summoning, awakening an unknown Ritual, or directly casting a random spell of Magic or a Technique, all from mundane reading.
'This month is so damn cheap.'
