Principle of Level Evolution

Level increase does not grant stat points to distribute.

It expands the individual's natural physical and mental limits.

When a human evolves, their body and mind become capable of withstanding previously inaccessible strains. However, these capacities are not immediately available: they must be attained through training.

An individual can therefore possess a high level without fully utilizing their potential. Conversely, a lower-level human subjected to rigorous training can demonstrate superior real power in a specific domain.

Specialization of Training

Training is not uniform.

The development of the physical and the mind are two distinct paths.

An individual training primarily physically will see their strength, endurance, and reflexes progress, while their mental capacities will evolve little.

Conversely, an individual focused on intellectual or mental training will develop their mind, perception, and cognitive abilities, to the detriment of their body.

This principle applies directly to Professions.

Professions oriented toward physical combat prioritize body training, while Professions related to magic, mystical arts, or mental techniques prioritize mind training.

Difference in Progression by Level

With equivalent effort, a higher-level individual will progress more quickly because their biological and mental limits are superior.

For example, where a Level 10 human must push themselves to approach a 500 kg load, a Level 25 human will reach this threshold much faster, as this load lies far below their maximum potential.

Fundamental Principle

Level defines potential.

Training determines specialization.

Real power depends on the balance between the two.
