Affinity all

[Compatibility Found: 99.9%] [BONDING COMPLETE] [Welcome, Host.] [Initializing Tier 11 Artifact Protocols…] Max blinked. "Am I dreaming?" [You are now the host of the Elemental Convergence System.] [Tier 11 Artifact: Soulbound.] [Status: Hidden.] "What the hell is a system? What does that even mean?" Max whispered. Then, the screen shifted again. [Analyzing Host's Body…] [Mana Affinity: 100%] [Elemental Compatibility: All basic and advanced elements accessible.] [Initial Bond Complete.] [Abilities Locked Pending Synchronization.] Max stumbled back, knocking over a chair. "All elements? That's not possible." Everyone in the world was born with an affinity to one or two elements. A rare few had three. But all of them? Not even the legends from the Calamity Era had that. He reached for the glowing necklace, but it pulsed brighter in response, releasing a gentle warmth that settled into his chest. [Do not attempt removal. Artifact is bound to your soul.] Max sat down heavily on the bed, heart pounding. He thought back to the Awakening Ceremony—how everyone had laughed, how he had nothing. But now… Now he had something far more powerful. [System Directive #1: Survive.] [Directive #2: Grow Stronger.] [Directive #3: Unlock the Truth Behind the Calamity.] The screen faded momentarily. Then a new panel appeared: Status Window Name: Max Age: 16 Talent Rank: Green (Hidden: Ascending) Mana Core: Awakened Elemental Affinity: All System Level: 1 Combat Abilities: Locked Titles: Heir of the Tier 11 Artifact Max's hands trembled. "I'm not talentless… I'm just different," he muttered. "No one can know about this." [Wise decision.] [Initial training quests available.] He opened the first quest: [Beginner Quest: Ignite Your First Flame.] Objective: Channel Fire Mana Reward: Fire Affinity Skill + Basic Fire Manipulation** Penalty for Failure: None Max took a deep breath, holding his hand out. He concentrated. The system guided his flow of mana, whispering instructions into his mind. A tiny spark flickered in his palm. His eyes widened as the flame grew, curling gently around his fingers like a sleeping serpent. It didn't burn him. It felt… right. Max stared at the flame, awe and disbelief mingling in his expression. For the first time in his life, he wasn't powerless. For the first time… he had hope.
