[POV: Lyra]
Today marks four years since I was reborn, and I am at Kyros rank – Initial Stage. Despite the help of the Genesis Physique, my mana core is growing, but it's still small. As my rank increases, so does the difficulty of advancing my core. If I want to defeat the AbyssWalker, I need to surpass all my peers and advance to the top rank.

I practiced many skills and managed to keep my true mana core hidden, thanks to a skill called 'Hidden,' which I acquired when I reached Zarith and unlocked the Genesis Physique. You might wonder how my parents didn't notice. The system helped conceal it from them, but it only granted me a limited time of one year. During that time, I advanced to the Zarith rank – Initial Stage and was on the verge of breaking through to the Middle Stage.

At that time, I overheard my parents talking and learned that Levi, the son of Orion and heir to the Darkfall clan, had awakened his mana core. This didn't happen in my previous life, so I thought I might be in an alternate universe. But then my system appeared and told me otherwise. When I asked, she explained that this wasn't an alternate timeline but the same one.

But I didn't care about him, not even a bit, because I was already far more powerful than him—or at least that's what I thought until today. When I arrived at the party with my family, I used my All-Seeing Eye to observe him, but something strange happened.

The system showed an error. The screen shook violently, flashing red, and at that moment, I saw Levi staring directly into my eyes as if he were looking straight into my soul. This had never happened before. In my previous life, he didn't even dare to meet my gaze.

[POV: Levi]

I sat at the table with my parents while they chatted with other guests who stopped by to talk. As they ate, I focused on my food. I love eating because it brings me a lot of pleasure—not that kind of pleasure, so don't get any weird ideas! I know some of you tend to jump to certain conclusions, but no, I'm not talking about that. The pleasure I'm talking about is the satisfaction of savoring delicious food and experiencing the flavors—it's all about enjoying the taste!

Alright, onto the next topic. As I was eating, I heard a voice as my mother and father introduced me to a family I didn't even know. I typically don't pay much attention to others, so meeting new people didn't pique my interest. I'm like a gigachad who only focuses on working out and training hard to become stronger. I don't care about love or any of that stuff, and if you want to call me gay, go ahead—I'm still a good gentleman at heart.

"Hi, how are you, Elena?"

"I'm good, Clara. How are you?"

"I'm good!"

"It's been four years since we last met, huh?"

"Yeah, I missed you." They hugged each other warmly.

Meanwhile, my father and the other uncle were exchanging glances, and I couldn't quite understand what was happening, but I was sure they were discussing something important. If you're curious, let me show you. As I thought this, the screen went dark and revealed the thoughts of Levi's father and the other man.

"How are you, bro?"

"I'm good. And you?"

"Good."

"Do you want to keep your promise to me or not?"

"I will keep my promise, but I want to see what he can do first so that I can consider giving my daughter to him."

"He's a genius, and you can trust him."

Now, let's switch back to my point of view. I had no idea what they were talking about because I can only narrate the story for you. I don't have the power to read other's minds.

Just as I was telling about myself to you guys I got a message from my system.

[Error]

[Error]

[Error.. Someone is prying on your info.]

I was looking around to find who that someone was and I gazed on a small girl who is similar to my age but shorter than me. She has white hair and red eyes like blood is looking at me shockingly and I activated my Identifying Eye to see her. I got a whole lot of info on her.

[Role]

[Main Character]

Lyra S. Ravencrest

Mana Core: Kyros - Initial(presently Hidden using a skill.)

Note: A reborn person who is grieving for revenge against the person who killed her and her entire family in the previous life. Got a chance to be reborn with the help of the system created by ■■■■.

-------------------------

The fuck, so the main lead is a girl and here I thought it would be a boy with a big harem that can support a country. All my worries are for nothing and if it is a boy who really creates that big harem I will cut his balls and feed it rats which are in skewers.

I could almost read her mind: Who is he really? Why can't my skill see through him? This cliché dialogue always comes up when a side character tries to use a skill on the MC, only to end up looking foolish. It made me want to laugh—though I kept it all inside. So, hold up; I'm not laughing out loud, just chuckling inwardly. So, let's take it easy with those comments!

After that, my parents introduced me to the family across the table, and I quickly realized they were from the Sphinx family.

The girl who had been spying on me was their daughter. She had awakened her mana core at just two and a half years old and was now ranked Zarith—initial. I knew all of this, but I kept it to myself. While I listened to their conversation, the girl approached me and said something that turned all my plans to ashes.

"Duel with me. I heard from my father that you're a genius."

Ah, for fuck's sake! Why does my plan never work out?

[Host, sorry for the delay, but you have a message from the author.]

Huh....
