His work, his struggles, his attempts…all of them were being acknowledged not just for what they had achieved but for the effort they represented.
Then something unprecedented happened!
A memory surfaced…not recent but ancient by his standards. He saw himself in those early days after Dungeons had descended onto his home world. Every morning, waking with the same purpose: accumulate enough resources and knowledge to buy a Fireball Skill Book.
Such a simple goal, such mundane effort, yet he had pursued it with dedication that transcended its humble nature.
Day after day, the same routine. The same commitment. The same effort invested toward a goal that, in retrospect, seemed almost laughably small.
The Principle of Perpetual Harvest reached back…impossibly, incomprehensibly, and touched that effort.
|Your efforts before touching mana have been recognized|
|They are worthy of harvest|
|Retroactive acknowledgment initiated|
|Complexity increased by 2,500,000,000|
