Upon arriving back at the Duchy of Easvil, the atmosphere was filled with a mixture of pride and anticipation. The gates swung open to reveal a bustling courtyard which was adorned with banners celebrating Julian’s achievements.
Servants were preparing for a grand reception to honor the young heir who had made a name for himself at the academy.
Regina walked beside Julian, her heart swelling with pride as she glanced at her son. She couldn’t help but recall the struggles he had faced and the sacrifices made to reach this point. Duke Alden ever the stern figure wore a rare smile, his eyes twinkling with approval. As they made their way through the courtyard, Julian was greeted by enthusiastic cheers from the townsfolk and the nobility who had gathered to pay their respects.
Familiar faces from his childhood waved their voices ringing out with encouragement and admiration.
“Julian, the future of Easvil!” some called while others shouted his name in recognition of his recent feats.
The family entered the grand hall where a lavish banquet awaited them. The long table was fixed with an array of dishes each more exquisite than the last prepared to celebrate Julian’s accomplishments.
Flowers adorned every corner and the air was thick with the scent of meats and delicacies. As the festivities began speeches were made, toasts were raised, and laughter echoed throughout the hall.
Julian caught glimpses of his parents exchanging proud glances knowing that their support would be crucial as he navigated the challenges ahead.
With every cheer and toast the weight of his family’s legacy pressed upon him but he also felt a fierce determination to rise to the occasion. As the night wore on Julian took a moment to step outside into the cool evening air. The stars twinkled above and he couldn’t shake the feeling that his journey was just beginning.
The thought of the royal capital loomed large in his mind intertwining with his ambitions and the responsibilities of being a noble. With a resolute heart he returned to the celebration ready to embrace the path that lay ahead.
Julian entered his room, the door closing softly behind him as he made his way to the center of the space. Taking a deep breath he focused on the familiar presence of the system in his mind.
“System are you there?” he asked, a hint of excitement in his voice.
“Yes, host. How can I assist you?” the system replied, its tone steady and ready for command.
Julian’s curiosity peaked and he quickly asked, “How many points do I have?”
“Host, you currently have 60,975 points,” the system informed him.
Julian’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm as he processed this information. “That’s great. But how many points do I need for a breakthrough?” he inquired, eager to understand his next step.
“Since you are in the mid Sacred Realm you will need 50,000 points for a breakthrough,” the system replied calmly.
Julian nodded, calculating his next move as he considered the possibility of advancing his power even further.
“Commence the breakthrough to the Supreme Realm,” Julian said.

“Yes,” Julian confirmed.
As Julian confirmed his decision, a warm energy enveloped him like a gentle embrace that washed over him in soothing waves. The fatigue that had clung to him vanished in an instant leaving him invigorated and alive.
He felt as if he were part of the universe itself, his very essence merging with the cosmic energies that surrounded him. All his concerns melted away and in their place a profound sense of detachment took hold.
It was a feeling of freedom as if he had transcended the struggles of life and risen above them. With this newfound clarity, Julian turned his attention inward to his sea of consciousness where the supreme realm mana began to wash over it like a refreshing tide.
He could feel the energy coursing through him expanding his mind and spirit at an unprecedented rate. The chaotic storms that had once roiled within him began to settle not merely calming but transforming entirely into peaceful waters.
He watched in awe as his sea of consciousness solidified and strengthened, landscapes were forming before his eyes. It was the qualitative sign of breaking through to higher realm. Before him, he could see the formation of undeveloped land, rich with potential yet untouched. It was empty, ripe for cultivation and growth where he could nurture his abilities and expand his power. (cultivation as in training not as agriculture)
As he observed this new world within himself, he felt a deep connection to it as if each expanse of land represented a him and his abilities. There were lands that was filled with black lightning that showcased his black doom, some were filled with dark clouds that stretched over a mile, some mirrored the chaotic energy of the rampaging domain.
The potential was limitless and he was filled with determination to cultivate this inner territory to shape it into a domain that reflected his strength and ambitions. Each moment spent in this transcendent state brought him closer to fully realizing the supreme realm and he embraced the challenge ahead with open arms.
The warmth enveloping him intensified and he could feel the mana solidifying and wrapping around him like a cocoon. Julian allowed the sensation to wash over him surrendering to the transformation as he took his first steps toward becoming a supreme mage.
He understood that this journey would require patience, effort, and unwavering resolve but in that moment, he felt invincible ready to carve his name into the annals of history.
The existence of the sea of consciousness was shrouded in mystery, it served as the very foundation of magic itself containing the natural laws that governed the universe.
This ethereal realm was where thoughts and energies converged and where the essence of one’s magical abilities took shape. The depths of this sea held untold secrets a deep abyss of potential waiting to be unlocked by those who dared to explore its vastness and complexity.
