"Your Core shifting out of position actually helped you," she said, causing him to pause.
"It did?"
"Yes."
"It spread Core energy into your body, forcing a majority of them to integrate and form more Corer cells."
"That achieved higher integration, except the Corer cells are not directly connected to the Core, which at that time had been disconnected."
"If that had happened to an ordinary Core user, their body would have been unable to regulate the new Corer cells in the absence of the Core, and they would've died." She said, and his heart sank.
"But you, your body is surprisingly durable.
"More durable than anything I had ever seen, and it surprisingly held out long enough for me to rebalance the Core and reactivate it."
"Once that happened, it reestablished connections with the newly formed Core cells."
"Your Core integration was previously at 35%, but right now, it's at 55%, thanks to that accident," she said, and even Everlearn was left speechless.
"That's also the main reason why you can't fully feel your body yet."
"The connection is still being reestablished."
"It will take some time to completely regain all connections, probably three more days at most."
Everlearn nodded in understanding, unconsciously exhaling.
It wasn't that he was sick or injured, just that his Core was still trying to reestablish a complete link over his Corer cells.
It wasn't something even leveling up could fix, though he could guess that it might help the connection stabilize faster.
Still,
"Huuuuuu..."
Everlearn exhaled in relief.
The expedition had been a success.
Lady Erendel remained for a couple more minutes before she left the room, leaving Everlearn to himself.
After she was gone, it gave him the chance to slowly sort things out, starting from the system.

"My attribute points increased again."
He could remember the last time he reached level 10; his attribute points had increased to 20 with every level up.
And now, the same had happened again.
From 20 attribute points, it had moved up to 30 attribute points at Level 50.

║ Agility: 180 ║
║ Endurance: 180 ║
║ Intelligence: 180 ║
║ Charisma: 180 ║
║ Attribute Points: 260 ║
Since he had leveled up 20 times over the span of three months and gained 20 attribute points with every level, along with the 40 attribute points that he had saved up, only planning to use them once he gained enough level-up cards.
[A/N: Him saving up 40 attribute points happened back in Chapter 78 Clear Progress. You can recheck to confirm.]
His previous attributes from all 20 level-up cards had been 400, along with his previous 40 attribute points that were unallocated, making it 440.
He had distributed that uniformly amongst his stats, inputting 80 stats into all five stats, raising them from 100 to 180.
That equaled exactly 400, leaving him with 40 points.
That, added together with his newly gained 220 points, made his current attribute points a total of 260!
"How does Host wish to distribute attribute points?" The system asked Everlearn responded.
"Add 70 points to Strength, 70 to Agility, 40 to Endurance, 40 to Intelligence, and 40 to Charisma."

HOST HAS FULLY SURPASSED a Mecha W Corer, and is comparable to a Mecha V Corer's level of power!
════════════════════════════
The system said, and Everlearn exhaled.
He had grown stronger, far stronger.
His mates, the other Newcomers, were all at Mecha X Core, and even the second years were at Mecha W Corer.
He had surpassed every single one of them in power.
The only ones who could stand toe to toe with him right now were the third years or the very instructors themselves.
What was insane was, he had done all of this in just the span of three months!
'The growth rate is insane… but that is majorly due to the system's quests and attribute points,' he mused to himself.
Just like he guessed, leveling up helped his current situation as he felt some muscular control return to him.
One thing was further clearer to Everlearn now:
He was ready to face Mecha Eva and the Mechara Organization itself.
"I will drag them all down to the farthest depths of hell…"
"Soon…"
"Very soon…"
