Wealth

Nial spent several months in seclusion if one could call it that. 

He had been surrounded by hundreds of Dark Elves and Nightshadow Elves while exerting the mana breathing technique to progress faster. 

At the same time, Nial spent lots of time refining his body and trying to remove every single imperfection from his body.

Unfortunately, it would still require quite a while before the 10,000 Refinements of Imperfectia would be completed.

But that was fine because he was now at the Peak of the Prometheus rank and he could focus on his body refinement technique.

Producing Runic Armaments as a side gig was also quite helpful as it increased the combat prowess of his people and it earned him a huge fortune when sold for a hefty price outside the Orion Association.
