LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 29: Rewards
Mila
During the third challenge, mainly while meditating after everyone was dead, Mila raised her Law Egg of The Reaper, her Law Egg of the Healer, her Law Egg of Bonds, and her Law Egg of Severing all to middle grade. They joined her already middle grade Law Eggs of Calm and Rage, and her high grade Law Eggs of Obfuscation and Hologram.
Objectively, this was quite impressive, G ranks rarely having even a single Law Egg, let alone Law Eggs strong enough to qualify for a Heroic grade class, and this was mainly because the Attunement stat was ridiculously hard to raise.
Compared to Aalam, however, who had 36 high grade Law Eggs by the end of the challenge and was responsible for more of her stats than she was, Mila felt quite useless, and that feeling became even more apparent when she saw her points from the challenge compared to his.
Her points were good, more than Aalam had made up until that point.

Trial Points for Aalam Alvaro: + 95,248,811,993,997,312
It seemed his bacteria had spread during the 26 days after his initial target left the settlement and had then caused mass casualties and most likely a war, the higher rank deaths coming from another country invading.
That didn’t matter much, though. He had tens of quadrillions of trial points and there were a lot more messages.
All stats +8
1 Legendary qi cultivation technique coupon
1 Legendary mana cultivation technique coupon
1 Legendary psyforce cultivation technique coupon
They both got equivalent messages about the basic rewards of the trial. The +8 to all stats maximized all Mila’s stats other than Luck, while the same for Aalam boosted their free stats by 96, and Mila used part of those to maximize her Luck. The rest of the free stats, like all the extra free stats from Aalam raising his Laws to high grade Law Eggs, they sent over Mila’s bond to her artifact, the Twin Dragons of Lord Alvaro’s Favored, which she thankfully could do even though she wasn’t wearing it.
That was the best of the four rewards. The coupons would normally be excellent, allowing them to choose the best cultivation techniques available for their new monster forms during the final section of the tutorial, when they’d actually get to use their trial points. But, given the utterly ridiculous amount of trial points they already had, it didn’t much matter.
The next section, only in Aalam’s System feed, made that clear.
Congratulations!
You are the first in the history of System tutorials to ever gain over 8,772,199,356,238,612 Trial Points in one challenge
All stats +12
There were a lot of notifications about turning those and the previous stats into free stats due to his ability, but Mila ignored them and instead just moved onto the next section they both had.
You may choose one skill, one artifact, and one System boon from the following lists
She then looked through all three lists and wasn’t surprised to see they were exactly the same. Aalam had far surpassed whatever the highest achievement of the challenge was supposed to be and Mila had probably met the threshold.
She also wasn’t that surprised when a quest from Nana Xara popped up.
The Yin Yang Sage has offered you a quest as her apprentice.
Give Your Master What You Don’t Need (G-Epic)
Accomplish the following:
- Give your master a Yang Spirit (G-Legendary) skill orb
- Give your master a Yin Spirit (G-Legendary) skill orb
Rewards: None
Do you accept?
Yes/No
“Aalam, are you okay with giving Nana Xara the skill orbs we don’t need?” Mila sent over their bond, slightly smiling to herself.
“Sure.” And, as usual since the tutorial had started, Aalam’s response was pretty much instant.
“Okay.” Mila shared the quest with him. “You get Yang Spirit and I’ll get Yin Spirit.”
Then they both chose the skills and the quest completed, the black skill orb which appeared in Mila’s hand fading from existence as soon as it arrived.
It was possible to remove skills from a class with a System boon, and both skills had been of summoning type, so Mila was pretty sure Diana would be taking a specialized yin yang summoning path thanks to their help.
“What do you think about the artifact choices?” she sent to Aalam. “Both the artifacts we’ve prepared for taking out of the tutorial can’t be improved much.”
“There’s a Healer’s Token, so you should probably take that. The Healer and The Reaper are two sides of the same coin, so their tokens can be combined into one artifact and it should enable it to automatically rise in grade upon advancement to F rank.” Aalam sounded excited. “For me, I’m going to go with a Token of Soulbinding. Your connection to your artifact even when you’re not wearing it has proven useful so far.”
Aalam’s artifact had a small pocket dimension inside from the token he’d chosen in the last trial, so, if he was soulbound to it, he’d have access to the pocket dimension even when he wasn’t wearing it, and there would be some interesting possibilities with that in the future.
She also agreed with Aalam’s suggestion of her own choice, so she chose the Healer’s Token and it appeared in her hand, looking just like the Reaper’s Token, only green and having a stethoscope on it instead of a scythe.
Then she looked over the list of System boons more closely.
There were the boons she’d seen before—skill enhancement, skill removal, ability enhancement, and +3 to all stats—but she wasn’t going to choose any of them. There was also the boon Aalam had chosen last time, Temporary Max Mastery Skill, but that was useless to her as well, as were the boons for +6 to all stats and +12 to all stats.
She was more interested in the remaining two choices. One was Soulstructure Enhancement, which would increase the size of one of her soulstructures in a safe way with no lasting negative effects, while the other was Uniqueness Awakening, which would flood her soul with a type of energy which would awaken a second dormant uniqueness if she had one. For both her and Aalam, the last choice would probably be more useful, but she was scared her new uniqueness would be known by the System.
“Go with Uniqueness Awakening!” Nana Xara was holding Mila’s Twin Dragons of Lord Alvaro’s Favored back in the main trial space and, while she couldn’t use the artifact, she could speak to Mila through their bond as master and apprentice via Mila’s bond with the Twin Dragons. “The System won’t be able to see anything and that boon is pretty much never given. You only have access to it because you are Aalam’s servant and he did something absolutely ridiculous, enabling me to give you access to the boon as well with the last of my own boons in the trial.
“The energy cost isn’t something the System would normally ever use in a G rank trial, let alone one out in the hinterlands like this.”
Aalam had already selected that reward without talking to her, she was pretty sure, given he was no longer responding to any messages she sent him. So, given how powerful her first uniqueness already was and Nana Xara’s extreme excitement, Mila quickly chose it as well.
She felt a tingling sensation cover her entire body, the feeling pleasant and relaxing, and she passed out.
* * *
Mila awoke some indeterminate time later in Training Room 0003, Aalam waking up next to her, and then she checked and saw two identical System messages in her and Aalam’s feeds.
Congratulations!
You have awoken to a new uniqueness!
Growing slightly excited, she then checked her and Aalam’s statuses.

Now the question was what types of benefits Third Eye Princess granted. Also, why did Aalam’s uniquenesses always seem to have cooler and less complicated names?
