As Morse's consciousness gradually faded, the necklace around his neck emitted a soft, ethereal light, and the silhouette of a girl slowly rose from the pendant, radiating a bright glow.
Her voice, like a soft whisper, echoed in Morse's mind: "Why, brother? Why do you have to suffer like this?" Her sobs were filled with concern and sorrow. "I wish I could take away all your pain, heal every wound, and protect you from the burden you have willingly borne."
Her otherworldly eyes glistened with tears as she reached out an invisible hand to gently caress Morse's unconscious face. The green light on the necklace shone even brighter, as if responding to her emotions. Her sister touched his face tenderly, her touch cool yet full of deep affection.
“I’ve always been by your side, but you always face these trials alone,” she murmured, her voice as gentle as a soothing melody. “I hope I can help share your pain.”
In the afterglow of the magical infusion, Morse looked unusually vulnerable, while his sister continued to express her heartfelt emotions.
“I know you crave power, but what will be the price? Your pain resonates with mine, and I wish to alleviate it. Brother, you are not alone.”
The magic in the room responded to her emotions, and subtle ripples spread through the air.
The tears in her eyes transformed into shimmering healing energy, each drop containing the hope of easing Morse's burden.
The blood flowing from Morse's mouth, his twitching muscles, and the numerous wounds... all of this tore at her heart, and tears fell mercilessly.
Her bright, extraordinary eyes held a deep sadness, but when she gazed at Morse, she couldn't help but show a gentle smile.
With soft sobs, she whispered, "If my very essence could truly heal you and protect you from the cruelty of this path, I would give anything. But I am bound to this necklace, subject to the magical constraints that govern our existence."
She floated slowly around his body, finally stopping in front of him. Gently, she pressed her forehead against his, and lightly cupped his cheeks in her hands.
As Morse's sister gently pressed her forehead against his, a final tear slid from her ethereal eyes, a tear imbued with a powerful desire for healing. It slid down her translucent face and landed on Morse's forehead, and at that very moment, an extraordinary miracle occurred.
As tears touched Morse's skin, a bright pattern appeared on both of their foreheads at the same time.
A complex black crescent moon pattern shone on Morse's forehead, while the crescent moon on his sister's forehead shimmered with pure white light. These star symbols intertwined, forming a connection that transcended the magical barrier that separated them.
Morse's body, still bathed in the afterglow of the magic, reacted to this mesmerizing phenomenon; the pain began to subside, replaced by a soothing warmth. His twitching muscles relaxed, and his wounds glowed faintly, touched by the moon's healing essence.
The younger sister's eyes widened in surprise and awe, realizing that an unknown magic was at work, and the gentle smile on her face became even brighter, reflecting a glimmer of hope.
The magical light on their foreheads began to pulsate harmoniously, resonating with the essence of their tears and their growing connection. These star symbols were weaving a bond that transcended their physical separation.
As the light intensified, his sister leaned closer to him and whispered, "I will always be by your side, brother." Her voice was like a gentle breeze. "In your dreams, when you are alone, I will always be with you. May you find the strength you seek, and may the pain you endure lead you to a brighter future."
After saying these words, she closed her eyes, and the last tear slid down her ethereal cheek. Unlike before, this tear contained a profound calm and determination.
As the tears fell, the magical light on their foreheads reached its peak, and the entire room was enveloped in a soft glow.
In the end, only Morse was left alone.
......
"..."
Morse slowly regained consciousness. The feeling of soaking in the bathtub still lingered. The once vibrant magical water had now become gentle and comfortable.
"Well--!"
Blinking, Morse felt a little confused. A strange sense of freshness came from his body. The intense pain that had engulfed him had disappeared, replaced by a warm and comfortable feeling.
"what……"
He took a deep breath and tried hard to recall what had happened. Soon, everything became clear, and his mind began to function normally again.
As memories gradually surfaced, Morse looked down to check his condition.
Judging from his appearance alone, his once weak body is now much better.
His originally pale skin gradually regained some color, and although his complexion was still pale, he at least looked like a healthy person now.
Morse carefully tried to stand up, and the renewed strength surprised him. As he stood up from the bathtub, a new vitality surged through his body, as if telling the story of the process's outcome.
"Hmm, this... is a bit unexpected." He muttered to himself, testing the stability of his legs. The room felt different, and the walls were trembling slightly with the lingering effects of the magical energy.
The sudden changes in the room were illogical. He suddenly realized that his perception of the world around him had become different from before, and some things had fundamentally changed.
"oops……"
Morse took a step and nearly lost his balance; the surge of power was far more pronounced than expected.
"Um……"
His legs had become accustomed to a certain level of strength and found it difficult to adapt to this sudden increase in power.
He quickly got out of the bathtub and felt a blast of cold air hit him, causing him to shiver slightly and his senses to become more acute.
Is this the effect of starflower essence?
The Star Flower Essence is so expensive, and it's no wonder. Considering its effects, it will definitely become even more expensive in the future.
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable in the magic bath, Morse decided to take a quick shower to cleanse himself. As the water flowed down, he noticed changes in his body.
His muscles felt different, stronger than before, and the increased strength was obvious. He even involuntarily bent his arm slightly. These subtle changes were both mysterious and unsettling.
This definitely exceeded my expectations.
Even considering the effects of this method, I did not anticipate all of this. Although I had mentally estimated what kind of power I would gain, it now seems to have far exceeded my initial expectations.
Perhaps it's because of factors I'm unaware of that are at play?
Nothing happens without a reason; he probably guessed at some of the factors.
This might be related to my health.
Although it wasn't displayed on the status panel, Morse knew that something different was inside his body.
Even for Ethan, with his talent, there wouldn't be much improvement.
Morse wrapped himself in a towel, stepped out of the shower, sat on the bed, and looked at the panel in front of him.

When he carefully examined the changes in attributes, a feeling of surprise welled up in his heart; the overall improvement far exceeded his expectations.
Especially attributes like agility and mana, which have been enhanced more than expected.
But the most significant change is in physical attributes.
Morse is not a strength-based character, so it's not surprising that his strength is relatively low. However, his extremely poor physique is abnormal, and this is one of the reasons why he has been dragging the team down.
But now, the situation is different.
The cap for Constitution attribute talents has now been increased, as seen in the increase from 6 to 7.5.
But... something still feels off.
This is not just the effect of the star flower essence; there is an additional factor at work, a mysterious element related to the uniqueness of the body.
But that's not all; there are two more key changes.
The Weapon Master class has been upgraded to level 2, which means a deeper mastery of weapons and better training results.
Considering that the professions basically cover all weapons, but the growth rate is somewhat lacking, this is a welcome change.
But the biggest and most important change is not the Weapon Master class, but something else entirely.
Perception has been upgraded from "unique" to "epic," which is extremely rare in terms of traits. Unless it is a growth trait, it is almost impossible to advance to the next level.
Unless extremely unusual events occur, these characteristics generally do not change.

Trait: Perception and Insight
Tier: Epic
Description: Perceptual insight has evolved to an epic level, enhancing the ability to observe and understand the surrounding environment. Individuals with this trait exhibit exceptionally keen perception, noticing details, patterns, and hidden aspects that others overlook.
This evolutionary talent transcends mere observation, endowing users with a sophisticated understanding of gathered information. Individuals can interpret the complexities of magic with unparalleled precision, perceiving its subtle flows and resonances. Magic-related concepts, once shrouded in complexity, will unfold without reservation under the user's keen gaze.

As Morse looked at the panel and read the details, he realized that the reason for the enhanced perception of the world was actually related to the properties.
He knew this fact.
From now on, he can absorb all knowledge.
