"Ah!!!!"
"How is this a surprise? It's obviously a shock!"
"Aston, how did you manage this!" Astonished cries echoed through the entire abandoned church, Hestia was completely shocked.
"Indeed, I guessed right." Facing the astonished Hestia, Aston understood that his assumption was accurate even without looking at the changes in his Status.
His attribute values were either maxed out or, like Bell, exceeded S, reaching double S, or even triple S; otherwise, Hestia wouldn't be so astonished.
"Alright, we can talk about it later. First, let me see the Status's imprint." Aston turned to the still shocked Hestia and urged her.
Hestia snapped out of it and began imprinting his Status.
"There."
"Aston, you actually gained two new magic spells and a skill again. You're a real monster!" Handing over the imprinted blessings paper to Aston, Hestia couldn't help but say.
The luck and potential of this family member of hers were too exaggerated.
He obtained magic items that others had lost in the dungeon and also gained two new skills.
Skills aside, Aston's magic exceeded three, not the advanced magic of the Nine Hell in the Loki Familia, but independent magic.
Moreover, the attribute value exceeded S, breaking the adventurer skills record in Orario's history and opening up a new ability level.
Regardless of magic or attribute values, Aston had already surpassed Orario's records.
He didn't pay much attention to this, taking the blessings paper and examining it.

"Not maxed out, but crossed the limits of S and entered a new level."
"Looking at this, my potential isn't worse than that guy Bell's, maybe even stronger." Looking at the data on the Status paper, Aston pondered, rubbing his chin.
After all, when Bell was at level 1, only one basic attribute reached the SSS level, and it was between 1300 and 1400. Meanwhile, all of his basic attributes were above 1400, with magic power even reaching 1700.
It could be said that he completely surpassed Bell.
Moreover, there was no mention of leveling up in the updated status data, indicating that this wasn't his limit.
This meant that his Status could still continue to improve.
Although his strength improvement relied on the Game Upgrade System, the effect of the falna could not be compared to the system's functionality.
But the falna also had differences from the leveling system.
For example, every time he leveled up, he could gain a development ability.
With each level up, the user of falna would undergo a significant transformation, showing a clear difference in strength compared to before leveling up.
The Sword Princess Ais showed a very obvious change in strength after leveling up from level 5 to 6, which was immediately recognized by the leader of the Hermes Familia, Asfi.
According to Aston's guess, the upgrade effect of the divine blessing could at least be compared to gaining three to four levels in the game leveling system.
His current level is eight, having increased by seven levels since level 1.
If his strength improvement were converted into data, it would roughly be from 1 to 4.5.
When he first obtained the Game Upgrade System, at level 1, Aston's data was one. After that, with each level up, Aston's physique would gain a 0.5 increase. After leveling up seven times, Aston's host body had reached 4.5.
In other words, if Aston's guess was correct, upgrading his divine blessing now would directly skyrocket his physical qualities to 6.5.
Of course, this is just Aston's estimate based on his current situation, and he's not sure if it's accurate.
Don't underestimate this, normal adventurers at level 1 usually only get a boost of 3 or 4 in physical attributes after reaching S values. Aston, on the other hand, doubled his, benefiting from being an adventurer who surpassed the S limit and entered a new realm.
This is also the reason why the protagonist Bell Cranel is different from others in the original story.
And the higher the values are at each level, the better the benefits and transformation after leveling up.
Currently, Aston hasn't met the conditions for leveling up, so there's room for further improvement.
According to Aston's speculation, assuming the limit of his divine blessing is 1999, comparing the changes in his body and the Status values, when his stats reaches 1999, his physique should be around five, maybe even 5.5. At that point, once the divine blessing upgrades, the enhancement he gets might be more than triple or quadruple, possibly reaching five times.
In other words, once his Status upgrades, his physique will be around eight times that of an average person.
And this is just from going from level 1 to level 2.
With each Status upgrade, the enhancement becomes stronger.
The enhancement from going from level 2 to level 3 is higher than the enhancement from going from level 1 to level 2.
"Hey, how did you do it, Aston?" Seeing Aston finish reading the blessings paper, Hestia finally couldn't contain her curiosity and asked what exactly happened today. His improvement was three times what it was yesterday.
And she knew that since the appearance of Status, the highest level for the stats value was only S. But Aston broke that record, reaching the unprecedented level of SSS. Additionally, he even had four magic spells.
These were all things Hestia was eager to know.
"I don't know how to explain it. It's like, during the fight, I suddenly understood, and the alchemy skill also just popped into my mind." Hearing Hestia's question, Aston thought for a moment, shook his head, and answered.
"Is that so? Well, your situation is indeed special." Hearing this answer, Hestia sighed slightly.
Then, her expression became serious again.
But before she could speak, Aston took the initiative to speak, saying what Hestia wanted to say.
"We absolutely can't reveal the situation with skills and magic, right?"
Hestia's face froze for a moment at Aston's sly move. The words that were about to come out suddenly disappeared. She glared at him, her eyes twitching, looking at him with a mix of frustration and amusement.
The next moment, Hestia directly pressed down on Aston, and started scratching at his sides, yelling loudly in a displeased manner.
"Darn you, Aston, you're too arrogant."
Caught off guard, he could only beg for mercy repeatedly.
