"This is a technique I created, with this you can make shadow borns as well, there is no rank to this technique since it isn’t complete"
Tamasya spoke with a smile as she handed the rough parchnt on which she had written the technique.
The parchnt itself looked old, not because of decay, but because it had been rewritten, revised, and scratched over countless tis.
Dark ink layered upon older strokes, and several sections were clearly rewritten with sharper precision, as if she had refined certain ideas while leaving others deliberately unfinished.
It did not feel like a polished technique.
Instead, it felt like a living technique, sothing still evolving alongside its creator.
Will accepted it carefully, his fingers brushing against the surface as he scanned the writing instinctively. He did not try to understand it imdiately.
He could sense the complexity contained within those words, and he knew this was not sothing ant to be absorbed in a single glance.
He smiled sincerely and bowed to her.
"thanks a lot master, please take care of in the future"
There was no exaggeration in his tone and no hidden intent behind the words. He ant them in the most straightforward way possible.
"yes I will" she said with a warm smile
For a brief mont, the tension that had always surrounded Tamasya softened. The expression on her face was neither cold nor distant. It was calm, almost gentle, as if she was allowing herself to exist without armor for once.
They spent the next few hours talking.
The conversation did not revolve around grand plans or ancient wars.
Instead, it drifted naturally from topic to topic.
Tamasya spoke about fragnts of the past she deed harmless, and Will shared small anecdotes from his ti as a chocolate seller in the capital, his experiences and his strange circumstances.
There were monts of silence where neither felt the need to speak, and there were monts where laughter surfaced unexpectedly.
Eventually, Tamasya stood up.
"I am going to et an old friend of mine"
Her tone was casual, but Will could tell that the matter was not insignificant. He hesitated for a mont before voicing the concern that had been lingering in his mind for days.
"hmm, I am noticing that you aren’t hiding your presence particularly, aren’t you afraid that the gods who imprisoned you might notice"
Tamasya turned back toward him and smiled faintly.
"those gods are outsiders, they cannot simply pry their senses into the World, and so they cannot sense , even last ti it was the natives of this world who had betrayed , and held a ritual to summon those gods to obstruct my ascension"
Her voice remained steady as she spoke, but there was a sharp edge beneath the calm.
"now, I will eventually kill those people, but before that I need to gather allies, and that is why I am going where I am going so don’t worry"
As she finished speaking, her silhouette began to fade, dissolving into the surrounding shadows as naturally as smoke dispersing in air.
Will watched quietly.
He already knew how she was traveling. It was the sa path she had used to bring him to the floating island. The shadows themselves responded to her presence.
[Host let remind you a mark of destiny has been placed on Individual Tamasya, you will be inford if she is in danger, though you won’t be able to help much]
"ohh!! I completely forgot"
Will exhaled softly, rubbing the back of his head.
He understood what that ant. A mark of destiny was only placed on individuals whose destined death had been altered by his actions. Tamasya was the first being to carry such a mark, and that alone spoke volus about how much he had disrupted the flow of fate.
[why don’t you share her senses and see where she is going, also why not share her talents as well]
Will shook his head slowly.
"umm, I think I should wait we are not that close yet, if I try to look through her senses then she would know since mark of destiny is an equivalent relation not like the slave mark."
He paused briefly before continuing.
"and about sharing talents, I don’t have a particularly special talent that I could give her, The lawless adaptation can’t be shared since it is a supre talent."
He leaned back slightly, thinking more carefully.
"Regarding the talents of archery and spirit transformation I just received, I think those are a different path and don’t complint her powers, so when I get a good talent I will exchange it for one of hers if she allows"
[fine, now how about you get your ass in there and start training again]
Will groaned lightly.
"ugh wait a min at least let grab sothing to eat", I don’t like the bland rations inside the infinity space"
A few minutes later, Will disappeared from the floating island.
When he reappeared inside the Domain of Infinity, the environnt had reset itself again.
The silence here was absolute, broken only by the subtle hum of energy in the air.
"now show the effect of the talents I gained from Leila"
[understood]
The system panel materialized in front of him.

---------
Will read through the effects carefully, his expression gradually shifting from curiosity to satisfaction.
"Woah nice, it’s good that I have a bow talent as well, versatility is always welcod"
He was not exaggerating. Having a secondary combat path that did not interfere with his sword cultivation instead it opened up many possibilities.
Ranged combat, control-based encounters, and precision strikes were all areas where a sword alone could not always dominate.
[why don’t you try practicing a bow now]
Will nodded instinctively, then paused.
"well, I don’t have a bow, let check the shop, how much for a wooden practice bow ?"
[only a cheap price of 100sp]
Will stared blankly at the system interface for a mont before his expression darkened.
"fck off bitch I don’t have that much, give sothing for 2 SP"
The silence that followed was heavy.
The system did not respond imdiately, which only made Will more irritated as he crossed his arms and looked toward the endless sky of the domain.
