[World Channel]
"Holy shit! Did anyone else feel that? The ground... it felt like it was shaking!"
"I was outside doing a quest! I thought it was an earthquake!"
"Sothing must have exploded to the west, right?"
"I saw a golden flash! So bright!"
"Could it be Faustus causing trouble again?"
"Don’t bla everything on Faustus. He’s a human, not a god!"
"Are you sure he’s human?"
"Uh..."
Luminara, Archer Guild.
A streak of white light flashed, and Daniel’s figure appeared in the guild hall.
He rubbed his nose while glancing at the World Channel chat.
Though this was a form of indirect praise, seeing it all laid out like this still felt... odd.
"Back already?"
Shadow Song’s voice ca from ahead, lazy and unhurried. "How did the quest go... hmm?"
Her words abruptly stopped.
Those deep, piercing eyes fixed on Daniel, her pupils narrowing slightly.
"You carry the aura of the Angels... and that of the royal line, no less."
Daniel gave a wry smile. "It’s a long story."
He submitted the quest item—the shattered fragnt of the Mountain God’s Heart of Mountain—and briefly explained the Mountain God’s descent into madness.
Shadow Song took the fragnt and, after listening to Daniel’s brief explanation, paused for three seconds in silence. Then she lifted her head and looked at him as though he were a monster.
"The Mountain God is a level 75 Blackgold‑grade BOSS. How long did it take you to complete this quest?"
"About... an hour?"
Shadow Song twitched at the corner of her mouth.
In her expectations, a normal completion would require at least fifty level‑100 rcenaries working in perfect coordination. As for a solo run... she admitted that the world occasionally produced astonishing individuals—but she hadn’t expected there to be one among the adventurers.
She paused, her tone complicated. "You’ve done what many wouldn’t even dare to dream of doing alone."
Daniel smiled. "Just lucky, I guess."
"Lucky?"
Shadow Song took a deep breath, as if trying to calm herself. "You call this luck?"
She shook her head and gestured in the air.

Daniel’s eyes lit up as he eagerly clicked to view the new skill details.
[Voidstride (SSS‑Rank) — Exclusive Archer Class Skill]

Void Concealnt (Core Effect)

Skill Description: Legends say that the ancient Arrow God once evaded a lethal strike by slipping into a void seam, escaping certain death. The insight gained in that instant beca this supre-grade legacy skill: The void‑walker is impervious to all.
"By the way... there’s this too."
Shadow Song retrieved a delicate box from beneath the counter.
The box was silver-white, engraved with intricate Elven patterns, with seven gemstones of different colors set into the corners, each glowing faintly.
"This is your reward."
She pushed the box toward him. "A full set of Blackgold‑grade exclusive Archer equipnt — the Windchaser Set. Given your outstanding performance, it’s yours."
Daniel’s eyes brightened.
He opened the box. Seven pieces of the set were neatly arranged, each radiating a soft silver glow.
There was no doubt: the value of this series rivaled even epic-grade gear.
The collective bonus for equipping the full set far exceeded that of individual pieces.
Without hesitation, Daniel sold the Windchaser Set to the Doom Guild.
[Ding! Host successfully sold the Windchaser Set. Received 1 Copper Coin. Please choose: Quantity Boost / Quality Boost!]
"Quality boost!"
[Millionfold Boost in progress... Congratulations! Host received 1 Gold Coin and acquired the Supre-Grade Archer Set — Windstrider!]

Daniel took a deep breath.
A full Supre-Grade set!
The combined Agility bonus alone totaled 1,020 points—plus the core attribute bonuses and other effects...
Without hesitation, he equipped it.
A golden light burst from his body, then quickly faded.
At that mont, the system alerted him again:
[Ding! Detected massive overflow in your EXP pool. Auto-leveling in progress...]
Golden flashes erupted from Daniel, one after another, like fireworks.
[Level Up: 71 → 72 → 73 ...]
[Level Up: 98 → 99 → 100!]
The guild hall of the Archer Guild was bathed in dazzling golden light.
Every NPC turned in unison, jaws dropping wide open.
Shadow Song stood to the side, her normally cold expression finally breaking.
When Daniel completed his first Star Ascension Quest, he had instantly reached the level 70 cap. Now, with the cap lifted, he surged straight to the maximum level again!
Combined with his terrifying performance on the SSS quest... could he really be a hidden top-tier magical beast among humans?
