Leo woke up in an infirmary his body ached and he looked at Shade who stared straight into his eyes. “Agh!” Leo screamed and jumped up but when his feet hit the ground he just fell over again. A tendril of Energy pushed him up and into the bed. Leo opened his Screen.

Leo felt his power both increase and decrease to a non existent amount. Leo looked inside and grimaced his pathways were screwed up and all his skills had decreased in power because of his damaged pathways. Leo realized something. This was going to be expensive.
8 D-Grade Nexus Coins and a pill later Leo was up but even he knew this wasn’t without drawbacks. Pills leave Pill Toxins and there’s a reason strong people just give their soldiers mountains of pills to make them trash Hegemons. The pill Leo ate was called [Artisan Of The Pathways] a top tier pill that let people fix their pathways but left behind huge amounts of Pill Toxins.
What was also worth noting was that all his F-Grade skills became E-Grade on their own for some reason. Leo felt like it was partly because they were Void Based and was something the System made just for him and was therefore not important enough for the System to make so many skills for one person. Of course all this just felt like some lazy author wasn’t competent enough to have hindsight and decided to just give him a freebie.

It turns out he’s been on bed rest for quite a while. And what he heard after waking up astonished him. A random F-Grade Curse Cultivator had somehow been able to contact a deity surpassing the Cursed Monarch and was killing innocents left and right for power. Given his current growth if he keeps it up he will become a Peak Hegemon in 1 year. The man was named Ajax and was considered a maniac who is more evil than the Cursed Monarch.
He was a deranged lunatic who was to be put down if you see him and even the Curse Sect had bounties on his head. Overall an annoyance who was to be killed upon sight. Leo noted the name and he entered more battlefields.
A month later.
Leo was smiling happily as he opened his Status Screen.

Leo was finally Level 100 and he celebrated with Shade in a five star restaurant on one of the newly erected victory battlegrounds. The battleground they were just fighting in lost and millions died but spirits were high as a milestone was reached. After all nothing mattered what was wrong with the System? As long as he stayed powerful and was able to rise through ranks he would be able to change it.
