62 Evolution

Otto once again looked around to find himself standing amongst walls, floors, and a ceiling all in a familiar shade of grey.

He unconsciously relaxed his tension.

This was the <Neutral Zone>.

There was no need to keep up his guard up here.

He closed his eyes and meditated serenely while he waited for the notifications to arrive.

To his surprise, he realized that he couldn't gather mana at all within this space.

His brows furrowed lightly.

He reached for memories of the past…only to find that he'd never attempted to cast a spell in the <Neutral Zone>.

Otto did just that.

But there was no response from his mana...

Before he had time to feel shock, three notifications arrived.

[All abilities are nullified in the <Neutral Zone>.]

[Would you like to use the Evolution Bead?]

[Would you like to select your Personal Trait?]

The questions hovered in the air on top of each other half a meter in front of him.

Otto didn't hesitate.

"Use the Evolution Bead."
