 Legendary!

 Goosebumps appeared all over his skin as Ren Suo looked at the appraisal.

 Finally, he had achieved a score above 90 points!

 Ren Suo had actually already expected that—to be frank, the Sacred Hand route which Ren Suo chose to take in “The Mage Under the World Tree” was the most challenging.

 Initially, Ren Suo chose that route only because he did not want to let his friend in the mystery realm in Xuan Nation die. However, he later discovered that by choosing the Sacred Hand route, he was able to fully make use of the advantage granted by his companions and the outsiders. In addition, he successfully made a name for Mage all around the Earth, so he also decided to continue the route he had chosen throughout the game.

 It was only at the final boss battle when the Sacred Hand route proved to be a real challenge. Had Ren Suo not possessed ‘Seeker', his entire game progress might well be wasted.

 [No Kills], [No Deaths], [Hand of Kindness], and [Legendary Mage of Healing] were obviously achievements that could only be achieved with the Sacred Hand route. Had there been casualties in the last checkpoint, Ren Suo would not have received those achievements.

 Moreover, Ren Suo could tell that even if he had only relied solely on his progress in the game and had not created a Seeker who was capable of massive destruction, he would certainly still be able to complete the mission—however, he would barely have passed.

 After playing three 3+ star games, Ren Suo could finally conclude the following two points:

 [It would be very challenging to clear high-leveled games without spending any merit points in-game];

 [In order to receive a high appraisal, it was insufficient to merely spend merit points in-game, and the player's accumulated experience outside of the game is a deciding factor].

 For example, had Ren Suo not possessed abilities like the Secret Records of Glorious Xuan and Combat Fighter, the Seeker would certainly not have been able to create a clone of herself to overpower the boss in the final checkpoint, and she would certainly not have had such incredible combat power.

 Ren Suo's ordinary technical handling skills, coupled with spending merit points, were sufficient to clear the first six checkpoints of the game easily.

 However, in order to receive an extremely high appraisal upon clearing the game, he had to rely on other attributes outside of the game: abilities, props, and even other game characters!

 Ren Suo took out his notebook and noted down his reflection on his recent gaming experience. He felt that the abilities and props he obtained from the game were not so much a benefit to him as the player, but rather a benefit to ‘Naisser Ren' as the player.

 After all, Ren Suo was merely sitting inside his house to play the games, while the game characters represented by the player ‘Naisser Ren' were the ones who appeared around the world and fought for various reasons.

 In other words, Ren Suo was actually serving ‘Naisser Ren': his abilities like the “Secret Records of Glorious Xuan” were actually not of much benefit to him, but when those abilities were equipped on Seeker, Mage, or the All-Devouring Spirit, they had significant effects.

 Indeed, the Mini Worlds game console comprised numerous small games.

 Similarly, the reality that Ren Suo lived in was also a game—but only that this ‘game' was a poor work with no organized system.

 As long as Ren Suo progressed in his Practice and his status in the Countermeasure System and the Researcher System rose, he would naturally receive the second chapter of the “Secret Records of Glorious Xuan”, tier 2 abilities, tier 3 abilities, and even more advanced abilities…

 Then, he would be able to equip those abilities on the game characters.

 With such a line of reasoning, Ren Suo's motivation to Practice rose ever so slightly!

 Looking back at the screen, Ren Suo hesitated no further and chose to upload his score!

 Otherwise, was he going to attempt clearing the game with 100 points? That would be a joke! Being able to attain a score of 92 points was already an ‘accident' as the equipping of external abilities on Seeker was bugged; if not for that, he would merely have gotten a passing score.

 The achievement [No Deaths] contributed a staggering 10 points!

 By now, Ren Suo could deduce that the appraisal for 60~69 points was ‘Barely Passed', that for 70~79 points was ‘Excellent', while that for 80~89 points was ‘Extraordinary'.

 Above 90 points, the appraisal was ‘Legendary'!

 As such, the achievement [No Deaths] served directly to elevate Ren Suo's appraisal score to the next level!

 [Your mission score has been uploaded. You have received 276 merit points, use them wisely.]

 [You have received 1* 3-star treasure chest. It can be found and activated in the savehouse inventory.]

 [Based on your game experience, you have received the specialized reward: Small Holy Grail of Purity.]

 [Based on your game experience, your game character ‘Mage' has received 8 special followers.]

 [Your score for “The Mage Under the World Tree” has been uploaded successfully. Thank you for playing. Mini worlds of endless fun await!]

 Ren Suo heaved a sigh of relief.

 The extent of influence of “The Mage Under the World Tree” was second only to “The All-Devouring Spirit”. However, unlike the small animals from the Heavenly Palace who ‘created trouble' around the world, the story between the male Mage and his large group of female mages would only take place in unknown secret realms.

 Ren Suo opened the [Equipment] page and found that, in addition to [Ability Slot], [Prop Slot], and [Backup Slot], the ‘Mage' character had another column [+].

 Clicking on the [+] symbol, a row of game characters appeared in a checklist: Ding Delan, Nimue, Red Hood, Lumpena, Merlin…

 In the future, Ren Suo would be able to bring along this list of beautiful female mages to fight if he was controlling Mage!

 —Although, those female mages were all part of the harem of a dead harem king.

 Indeed, according to what was described by Red Hood and the other mages about Merlin, he was likely also a harem king. That was because there was not any gossip about Merlin, but plenty surrounding Librom—after all, mages were humans! How could Merlin possibly hold back his inner desires if not for the fact that he was fighting alongside the people he loved?

 “Wait, hold on… That means that when Merlin eventually killed Librom himself and used Librom's skin to make a book of human skin, then wrote down Librom's life on the pages in the book, it was not only because of the Holy Grail's influence. Could the deeper reason actually be… that of envy and jealousy?”

 Such a thought sent chills down Ren Suo's spine. He recalled the scene where Merlin readily accepted his female identity.

 Could it be that that was actually Merlin's wish?

 At that juncture, a new message popped up in the game, on the left side of the screen:

 [You have a new message.]
