Chapter 183: The Answer (2/2)
Having Little Dou by his side, Max knew how much influence the Lust System would be to his lifestyle if he made full use of it without any restraints.
However, along with it comes great risks and danger. Though Max had enough skills with his Time Stop and other deadly skills, he had to stop for a second and think, was it enough?
Being the most familiar with how overpowered his skill would be if he were to combine and connect one skill after another, Max still hasn’t tested whether it was enough for a stronger foe such as a Rank 2 or the unthinkable Rank 3.
Although Yu’er had repeatedly said Rank 3 Awakeneds were rarer than Rank 1’s and 2’s by a large margin, there was still the possibility.
But that wasn’t what Max had been thinking about. When Max gathered information about Rank 2 Awakeneds, he was surprised to find that a lot of them were almost revered for breaking past the barrier of Rank 1.
From this, Max could understand how difficult it was for others to reach the next rank as even the small stages between ranks were already hard enough.
What’s more, Max hasn’t tested his skills against a Rank 2. Yu’er used to tell him that a Rank 2 is much stronger than a Rank 1. It wasn’t just as simple as one having one skill and the other having two skills.
There was something more behind it, such as Yu’er adding that there was a slight suppression against lower ranks.
This suppression would weaken the effectiveness of the skills of lower ranks, which would mean that his skill would also similarly lose their expected effectiveness by an unknown margin.
Since it was like that, Max couldn’t do anything to change it. But he could prepare some skill which would not lose their effectiveness no matter what.
This was where the skills such as Magical Space would come into the picture. It was just a skill, having no risks surrounding it, without having any complicated uses, a space that Max could use to shield himself and his women, the ultimate protection.
However, even though one of the problems was fixed, there was still more. One of which was what Max was working on, self-strengthening.
As long as he grows stronger, the enemies he would have would get lesser and lesser, though they would also be a level stronger.
Another problem of Max, which was not hard to miss, was quite simple and could be easily overlooked, numbers.
Others say strength comes in numbers. It might not be entirely accurate, but there was still some truth behind that, and Max could already see them being a victim of it.
They don’t have a lot of allies. It could be said that they don’t have anyone other than their few numbers.
This world was full of hidden Awakeneds and secretive organizations.
One day just as he woke up, a question suddenly popped into his mind. What if Awakeneds after Awakeneds come after them like waves.
This could be solved by hiding in the Magical Space. But Max knew that they should keep relying on just hiding. They should at least have a way to deal with those situations.
And the answer Max had thought about was what he exactly planned to pull off on this very day.
Every Awakened would find the idea that Max had, impossible to execute. However, having the set of skills he currently has, Max doesn’t believe he couldn’t do it.
How was Max going to scare off others to not make an enemy out of them? The answer was simple, have a powerful backer that will be recognized by everyone.
