These little children stood in anticipation for what was to come. Some of the adults around had come out to watch. They too were hoping that their kids would be lucky today.@@@@ Arthur was also full of anticipation. He thought to himself eagerly, "I hope my two years of work were worth it and Mother wasn't right about my generosity being a waste of time." He smiled to the children, "I hope I have met you well." Then he began distributing the bread to them. Mountain Karma +3 That was what he received from each kid when they accepted his loaf of bread. Even the fruits were appreciated, but they only produced 2 Karma. 3 Karma is the maximum he has ever received for giving someone bread. If he had given them meat, he could receive 5 or 6 Karma. Unfortunately, he stopped giving people meat after his mother stopped him from giving people their foodstuff. The other kitchen was also unwilling to give him meat. He could only accept bread or fruits for their surrender. He couldn't blame his mother for cutting him off. He doubts he would have been accommodating as a parent. In fact, he knows he wouldn't have tolerated it. At first, she had indulged him because she thought it a phase. But he had shown too much dedication in trying to empty their storehouse for the year that she indulged him. She had to put a stop to it, or he would truly empty it. She had called what he was doing a waste of time and resources. But he hopes she was wrong. Actually, he needs her to be wrong. He wasn't looking at his screen as he gave out the bread. He was smiling and asking the kids questions as he gave them the loaves of bread. He did so because it would reduce his karma if he didn't put in effort and show concern for the people he was helping. His concern and engagement with them go a long way in increasing their appreciation for what he was doing. After all, if they see and think that he cares for them, they will appreciate his gift more no matter how small it is. Or at least that's what he thinks. He is not sure, but he knows that there is no harm in showing sincerity. So he didn't know when he met the requirements for an upgrade. But he felt it immediately: Mountain Karma upgraded. His whole body felt light immediately the upgrade was completed, and the bread he had in his hand was crushed. All the way back, the coachman kept regretting being selected today. Meanwhile, Arthur used that opportunity to check his system. MOUNTAIN SITTING DAO State of Existence: First Mortal Coil (First Transformation) Life Span: 106 DIVINE ABILITIES 1. Mountain Karma: Level 2 (11/10,000,000) 2. ????: ------ ATTRIBUTES Power: 1 × 2 (Mountain Karma) Mind: 1. Mental Energy: 5 Body: 1. Life Energy: 5 Most of his information was the same. But the two changes are clear and impactful. Mountain Karma had upgraded to level two. Now it was increasing his power. Currently, as a first coil mortal, his power is based mostly on his body. His body is still at the first transformation, and he won't be able to complete it for some time as his body is still developing. Yet, Mountain Karma had doubled his power to 2. It had made him acquire the power of a teenager as a child. He said in understanding, "No wonder I can't control my strength. I am now stronger than I have the right to be. I am stronger than any child has the right to be." He gripped his tiny fist with excitement. "With this, I won't be mediocre."
