And everyone leveled up a lot at the end too!

It is always a pity I can\'t level up at all, but it is also always nice when I see everyone else leveling up too.

I can always just spend my EXP into something else for my own ways to grow stronger anyways.

"Phew, well, that was a nice warmup, wasn\'t it?"

My father giggled carefreely as he rested his huge sword on his shoulders, his transformation deactivating as he went back to his original self.

"Dad! What was that technique?! I\'ve never seen you use that before!" I said.

"Oh, that one?" He wondered. "Well, thanks to your mother always allowing me to cultivate using her Light Aura which she shares into my body, I\'ve finally managed to refine my Flames into Heavenly Flames, and decided to use them a bit."

Wait, didn\'t I just learned a new Skill that can also conjure Heavenly Flames?

I better not tell dad that I got it so easily or all his efforts will feel like nothing…

"H-Heavenly Flames? That sounds awesome…" I said in surprise.

"And they are as awesome as they sound." He smiled. "Even after the war, we\'ve not stopped growing stronger ourselves. After what we learned from some old monsters out there, we discovered Tier 10, which we always thought was the limit mortals could achieve, was only the beginning for some ancient heroes or warriors that surpassed us in the past."

"So Tier 10 is not the end?" Asked Aquarina in surprise.

"Yeah, we never told you?" Shade wondered. "Well, you were so young back then I doubt it would have mattered that much."

"Usually, there\'s a "lock" when you reach Tier 10." My mother said. "Some say it is a "Curse of the Gods" which stops mortals from reaching further than that… However, the trick to surpass it is harboring and cultivating "Divinity" of some sort. This is why your father has finally begun by refining his Aura Flame into a Heavenly Flame."

"Aura Flame?" There were even more concepts I didn\'t understand.

"It is a special Cultivation Method that our Mercenary Family, the Bravo Mercenaries, developed to overcome our human limits." My father smiled. "I never taught it to you because I knew you would sooner or later develop a Spiritual Heart, which is a much better alternative."

"I don\'t care! I want to know what that is!" I said, amazed.

"Hahaha, well, it is quite literally what it is." My father said, suddenly conjuring a white and gold flame from his hands and placing it above his abdomen. "You know how there is a Magic Circle, a Physique, and all of that, right? Auras are born through the conversion of Mana and Physique and can develop and evolve in all sorts of ways, ultimate transforming into a Domain. But what I\'m trying to say is that our family developed a way to compensate for our weakness by refining a small flame and fusing it into your Physiques and connecting it to the rest, that\'s the Aura Flame, which becomes the core of the growth of our Aura, Magic Circle, and Physique. Pretty much the same that the Spiritual Heart, but it feeds on battle, constant exercise, and fire-attribute materials to grow stronger."

"There are so many cultivation methods out there…" I was felt surprised, this world never ceases to amaze me. "Dad, have you broken through Tier 10 into Tier 11 then?"

"Not yet, I just developed the Heavenly Flame Aura." He said. "I\'ll have to continuously pour it into every inch of my own self while I fight strong monsters to absorb their Energy. Through the standard methods, it\'ll take a while to get there."

"Well, through standard methods, that is." My mother smiled. "We have quite a lot of money and resources, your father will be chugging elixirs I\'ll make for the next months so he can break through quickly. Humans aren\'t as long lived as us elves, so he can\'t just take his sweet time."

"Hahaha, come on, let\'s take it easy." My dad laughed.

"W-What about the rest? Mom, dad, have you done something too?" Aquarina asked excitedly.

"We\'re getting there!" Her mother said. "I need to refine my physique by absorbing Divine Metals, it\'ll take some time, but it should be possible. Orichalcum is what I\'m absorbing, it is slow as hell."

"Those with the Darkage Bloodline have secret cultivation techniques they can use to break through. Throughout all the history of our family, only three people have broken through Tier 10, and they were all famous assassins in history." Shade said. "I\'m using their techniques to channel Abyssal Embodiment into my Physique and Magic Circle, trying to refine it into something called "Divine Abyss Eye", which will manifest in my forehead… But it is not easy. You will get to do that, one day."

"Woow…" Aquarina was shocked, her parents were just as amazing.

"What about you, mom?" I asked my mother.

"Oh, me?" She giggled. "I\'ve been Tier 11 for a few years now."

"EH?!"

Everyone that wasn\'t aware reacted in surprise.

"Why is it so surprising?" She sighed. "I can harness and summon the Divine Light of the Gods, of course I\'ve already cultivated it into my body. My Spiritual Heart has already evolved into a Divine Spiritual Heart."

My mother was perhaps the strongest of the heroes right now, yet she was so relaxed and often didn\'t show off as much as my dad, so we couldn\'t quite tell!
