Gazing at the new additions to his stats, Atticus was shocked beyond belief. 'I should start checking my stats more often!' Atticus thought in total annoyance.

Choosing to leave the extremely huge increase in his will for later, Atticus's head was racing fast, trying to understand what was happening.

Atticus was sure, 100% sure that these new additions weren't there when he had checked his status in the Life Weapon's realm. There was no way he could have made that kind of mistake; his intelligence stats would have been an absolute waste on him if he had done that.

So, the question that consumed him was, 'What changed?' Atticus pondered.

What he couldn't seem to understand was that even after realizing that he had awakened these elements, he still couldn't feel any connection to them.

After he had broken through to the Advanced rank, Atticus did feel his connection to the elements had increased, but it was for his four normal elements: water, fire, air, and earth.

He couldn't feel any of these new elements.

Even more perplexing was the presence of the space element among them. But seeing how low it was compared to the other two elements suddenly made everything click.

Why hadn't he seen anything when he had broken through the Advanced rank and checked his stats in the Life Weapon's realm? It was simple; they were there, but he couldn't see them because his bloodline had been locked inside the Life Weapon's realm.

Since he wasn't able to use his bloodline, the system hadn't been able to reflect the changes that had happened when he broke through. 'It probably immediately reflected as soon as I came out of the realm.'

From the way his space element was lower compared to the other elements, he was able to easily surmise that the unlocked progress depended on how long he was exposed to these elements.

It was evident because the only exposure he had to the space element was when he had been fighting Astrion back during the attack on the Raven camp.

It would also explain why it was so low. While the light and darkness elements had progressed significantly because of obvious reasons.

Which brings Atticus back to the most puzzling question: how was he able to use the space element? He had checked, and in the whole history of the Ravenstein family, none had been able to use any element apart from 8 elements, fire, water, air, earth, light, darkness, lightning and ice.

So how could he use the space element? This situation made it obvious that his primordial elemental bloodline was not so simple as he had thought.

All of these thoughts happened in less than 2 seconds in real-time, but considering who was currently standing before him, those two seconds might as well be a century.

Remembering that he wasn't the only one present, he turned his gaze away from the interface to Magnus, who was still looking at him.

Atticus decided to respond to his question, "It's true my bloodline grants me the ability to control all elements, but currently I can't seem to control any elements apart from the basic four," Atticus said, trying to be as truthful as possible without letting Magnus know he knew exactly what was going on.

From the way he reacted when Magnus mentioned the other elements, he had already showed that he had no idea about them. He didn't want Magnus to know about the system, so he had to feign ignorance a little.

Hearing this, Magnus's gaze seemed to go out of focus, his brain stimulating different scenarios at a speed Atticus couldn't hope to fathom. He came out of his daze, the speed so fast that Atticus's perception of time didn't moved.

"I see," he said. "There are multiple possibilities, but the most likely is that your bloodline limits the elements you can use depending on your current rank. And because you met certain requirements, these new elements were unlocked for you."

"Seeing as how the space element around you is less prominent compared to light and darkness, we can assume that your awakening of these elements depends entirely on how much you were exposed to them."

Atticus was flabbergasted. It didn't even take Magnus a second to figure it out! The only reason Atticus was able to understand what had happened was that he had the system.

Just as he was admiring Magnus's intelligence, Magnus spoke again, his words sending a wave of shock through him,

"You've awakened your perception, right?"

Atticus didn't even bother trying to deny it and nodded. 'If he had watched me train, then he probably knows everything about me.' Coming to this conclusion, Atticus calmed down considerably. Since the cat was out of the bag, he might as well see where this would all go.

"Good," Magnus nodded, and then he started walking to the middle of the training room, "Atticus," Magnus said, turning around to face him.

"Yes, grandfather," Atticus responded.

Magnus gazed directly into Atticus's eyes, "I want to take you as my disciple, do you accept?"

Atticus's expression didn't change at Magnus's question. He had already expected this. It was obvious given the circumstances.

Why else would Magnus call him here to ask about his powers? It was obviously a test to see if Atticus would answer truthfully. If Atticus had lied, he was sure that Magnus wouldn't have asked him to be his student.

Atticus's response was immediate as he bowed, "It would be an honor."
