I swear, some of these tests are just trying to torture us. And why does Allen keep staring at me like I’m doing him some great disservice or something? It’s getting annoying and awkward.

Allen takes in a deep breath before letting it out again. Then he repeats that process once more and says, “While your capabilities may be theoretically impossible, don’t let that go to your head. It doesn’t mean you're immediately the strongest person even close to your level or anything like that. All it means is that your physical capabilities will rise at a slightly faster pace than everyone else on average. But there will still be people who – even at the same level or below you – can challenge you with ease as long as they focus on one stat or just happen to counter you.”

I nod my head, taking his advice to heart.

He nods back before pressing the okay button on the screen that appeared after I finished the last physical test, making the screen go back to the three main stats, but with Physical crossed out this time. Then he waves for me to do the rest myself as he goes to the edge of the room and sits in a chair while rubbing his temples.

Does he have a headache or something? I know my capabilities are quite good, but is it that big of a deal?

“Probably,” Tar says, his amusement clear in his voice. “Noble demons are known quite well for having a stronger talent in both magic and physical prowess over humans after all. So it makes sense that a half blood lycan would be stronger than most humans at the same level. But as he said, don’t let this get to your head. Humans are crafty, and magic is – as some would say – without bounds.”
