There were many who suffered in the recent chaos, but there were also those who benefited—the Awakeners.
If any group grew stronger the fastest due to the chaos, it was them.
However, a significant number also fell during the chaos due to their lack of initial strength.
After all, not every Awakener was as power and money -hungry as Michael, Mira, and Lilian that started hunting monsters early on.
These three, however, had grown considerably stronger thanks to the chaos.
There was no need to mention Michael—his growth was relentless, increasing by the moment.
As for Mira and Lilian, both had managed to advance to Rank 1 during the chaos.
However, their quest completion results were far less impressive than Michael's.
They had done the bare minimum to advance, which meant they reaped fewer benefits.
Even so, reaching Rank 1 made them significantly stronger compared to when they were still unranked.
