[Offset ALL Demerits]

A rush poured through Sylas. It was an interesting feeling, one that he had all but forgotten. It became obvious to him that this Demerit State was worse than what he had assumed.
It had festered and grown within his body, slowly raising the temperature as though he was a frog in boiling water. It wasn't until it was suddenly erased in a single go that he could truly feel the difference.
To his astonishment, this difference was not too dissimilar from being in a State of Expenditure.
But it wasn't really a direct impact on his strength like such a thing should be. Instead, it was more like Sylas was having his connection with the system strained and weakened.
Although it was a less obvious problem, as a result of it Sylas was suffering from a ubiquitous impact across all of his skills, from his Profession all the way to his Rune Mastery itself.
