The waiter came back with both their drinks, and Carla said \"Everyone sent to Dreamland is a Dreamer. This is our name, our identity. But Dreamers are further split in different categories based on their strength and the number of missions they accomplished.\"

Dorian asked \"Is this a hierarchy coming from the system or did the Dreamers create it?\" Carla replied \"The System. It is for several reasons, one being making sure the strongest wouldn't attack the weakest.\"

Dorian asked \"What about Eden then? We passed by several people far stronger than any Evolver.\" Carla nodded and said \"Eden is special. Every world with Dreamers originating from it have a world like Eden, and everyone is allowed there. The reason we can all see each other is first because the conflicts between people of the same world is rare, and there are limitations too.\"

Dorian drank from his tea, and asked \"Why create this world? And what are the limitations?\" Carla looked down on her coffee and said \"Not everyone's world is as safe as ours. There are some world who have been invaded or even destroyed, so people needed a new place to live in. As for the limitations, we can't harm each other, and the deals are limited.\"

Dorian frowned and asked \"How so?\" Carla said \"The strongest Dreamers are unimaginably powerful, and can get Purple items quite easily. Imagine one of those powerhouses has his child entering Dreamland, he will just give a Purple consumable to his child. That would break the balance.\"

Dorian said \"So they only allow deals between those of similar strength… So that's what the Evolver thing is about? I was about to kill them because they were Evolvers too. But if I evolve to the next realm, then I won't be able to do anything to them?\"

Carla nodded \"That's it. Of course, there are special circumstances. Always remember: the system isn't just a program, it is an intelligent being. Following some circumstances, it is possible for you to attack someone of a different realm. \"

Dorian asked \"Such as?\" Carla replied \"As you know there are big differences between the strength of people in the same realm, there exist even some people able to cross realms and fight those of a higher realm. Well, those realm crossing fighters are one such exception.\"

Dorian nodded \"Makes sense. By the way, how strong am I compared to other Evolvers? What is the limit of an Evolver?\"

Carla said with a fierce expression \"I'll tell you later, let me finish my explanation first.\" Dorian rolled his eyes and said \"No need to get agitated.\"

Carla growled but still said \"Another condition is personal relationships. First is the guild wars, if two groups of Dreamers fight each other, then every member can attack everyone else. Another is if one of your closed ones is attacked by someone much stronger. You killed those four guys easily for example, so you see how much stronger you can be compared to others in the same realm. If you have a feud with someone of a higher realm, then you can attack his son who is in your realm and kill him. If you do that, the stronger one will be allowed to kill you as soon as you try to kill his son.\"


She then said \"Back to you, you are strong, you near the limit of the Evolver realm. The realms are as follows: Evolver, Ascendant, Transcendent and I don't know the following ones. Every newbie is an Evolver.\"

Dorian finished his tea and asked \"How do I become an Ascendant? And is there any advantage?\" At the same time he ordered for another tea.

Carla said \"There are different requirements for Predators and Sheep. The thing in common, is the attribute point value. To become an Ascendant, at least one of your pure attributes must have reached 30. This is also the limit in term of pure attribute for an Evolver. Even if you eat consumables or level up skills, your attribute won't go past 30.\"

Dorian nodded, and in his mind he couldn't help but get excited. His vitality had already reached that limit, and his intelligence wasn't far away.

Carla continued \"But that's only one requirement. Another is to have unlocked at least one type of special energy.\" Dorian asked \"What's a special energy?\" Carla replied \"Don't worry, you will know when you get one. It will create a third bar below your HP and your MP.\"

Dorian remembered, hadn't his Life Essence created a new bar as well? So it was a special energy? He asked \"What about magic?\"

Carla replied \"Magic isn't a special energy, because it is something every living being in existence possess. A special energy is something accessible only to a certain kind of people.\"

That was the case for his Life Essence. Life Essence in general, was probably not a special energy because it could be used by anything as it was basically just internal energy. But Dorian's was special, because it wasn't the basic Life Essence, but Holy Fire Life Essence, something that can only be used by Holy Fire Angels.

That meant he already filled two requirements for becoming an Ascendant. He knew he had done really great in his first world, but he didn't know it was to this point. Being able to reach the next realm so quick was unbelievable.

Carla said \"Special Energies are rare, and usually they are given out as rewards during the fifth world. Of course, if you perform excellently before then you can get it earlier. Those two were the shared requirements for both types of Evolvers. Predators need also to have completed at least one Hunt.\"

Dorian said \"Hunt? Is it a mission where we are supposed to hunt some Sheep?\" Carla smiled seductively, like she always did, and crossed her legs, lightly brushing against Dorian's leg under the table, and said \"That's it. The system will send you on a Hunt when it deems you strong enough.\"

Dorian asked \"Have you participated in a Hunt before?\" Carla shook her head and said \"Not yet. I'm not in a guild, and I'm not strong so I haven't yet.\"

Dorian asked \"Do you know how it's like?\" Carla nodded and said \"Again, it depends on your strength, and whether you are on your own or not. The number and strength of the target will depend.\"

Dorian couldn't help but wonder, how did she know so much? Still, he didn't ask, and instead said \"Are those all the criteria for becoming an Ascendant?\"

Carla said \"Not really. This is what you need to take part in the Graduation Mission. This is another special mission in which you will have a special mission. If you succeed, you evolve. Otherwise, I don't know. I don't know much about this because you are only allowed to speak of it with those who have passed it, and I haven't.\"

Dorian asked \"You said earlier the limit for Evolvers is 30, but is there a limit with equipments on?\" Carla shook her head and said \"The limit is only on pure attribute. If you activate a skill that boost your attributes or just use equipment to bypass the limit, then you are still within the rules.\"

\"Does those rules still apply on Earth?\" Dorian asked. Carla replied \"Of course. They apply everywhere.\"

Dorian said \"You talked about guilds. What are those?\" Carla said \"Just like in games, Dreamers will form a group together to go on missions together and support each other.\"

Dorian asked \"What if a member is much more powerful than the others? Can an Ascendant do a mission with an Evolver?\"

Carla replied \"Yes they can, but the mission they will receive will be different. They will also receive rewards based on their strength and the number of worlds they went through.\"

Dorian asked \"When advancing to the next realm, is there any advantage in going faster?\"

Carla said \"It won't give you better results because you did it earlier, but the difficulty of your worlds do not depend on your strength, but on the number you went through. For example, let's say you found some way to become a Transcendent in your first world, your second world would be as difficult as anyone else' second world. And evolving will help you gain power, so doing fast mean you will be able to get better ratings in your worlds.\"
