Chakra was an energy produced by the perfect fusion of the various energies controlled by the human body. It served as the source of power for performing ninjutsu, Genjutsu, taijutsu, or creating threads to bind opponents or cut through substances likewise formed from Chakra.

As a ninja, one had to learn to control and use this power.

Whether someone possessed Chakra was also the standard for judging whether they could become a ninja.

The purpose of the Chakra Extraction Technique was to teach people how to draw Chakra from the body's 130 trillion cells, extracting it one cell at a time.

After extracting Chakra, one could only use techniques through Hand Seals.

More than a week later.

After a week of study and practice, Veigar had become proficient at entering the cultivation state for the Chakra Extraction Technique.

Night quietly fell.

After dinner, Veigar, seated cross-legged on his bed, began cultivating once again.

Veigar's progress in cultivating the Chakra Extraction Technique had been fairly smooth. Compared to geniuses like Kakashi, he lacked talent, but he did not feel discouraged. Instead, he steadily improved himself little by little.

As Veigar cultivated, faint warmth began to rise from his body. This was a sign that he was about to successfully cultivate the Chakra Extraction Technique and extract Chakra.

Suddenly, Veigar's eyes widened. His pupils were bloodshot, his entire body trembled, and he seemed to be enduring immense pain. He wanted to cry out, but discovered that he had lost control of his body.

Forget opening his mouth to shout—even blinking was difficult.

"Thump, thump..."

A surge of heat rose from Veigar's forehead and rapidly poured into his heart. The clear sound of his pulse was exceptionally crisp and loud.

From slow to fast, his rapidly beating heart seemed as though it would burst out of his body.

In Veigar's vision, everything around him seemed frozen. Everything in the world became incomparably slow, while his heart beat faster and faster.

"What exactly is happening to my body?"

The moment the question arose in Veigar's mind—

"BOOM!!!"

A thunderous blast, as if the world itself were being split apart, rang out in Veigar's mind. A dark green icon, like a holographic projection, appeared before his eyes, then shattered into countless specks of light and merged into his body.

Though he had only caught a fleeting glimpse, Veigar still recognized the icon.

It was the passive skill of a hero known as Evil Little Mage from a competitive game in his previous life—Superior Evil Power.

Amid his shock, Veigar discovered that he had regained the ability to move.

"Did I just hallucinate?"

Veigar muttered, but everything he had just experienced told him that it had not been an illusion.

To figure out what had happened, Veigar began cultivating the Chakra Extraction Technique once more.

He also prepared himself to endure that pain again.

However, the situation Veigar feared did not occur. Instead, he extracted Chakra with remarkable ease.

At the same time, Veigar, whose eyes were tightly shut, saw an icon glowing dark green in the darkness.

After staring at it for a long time, Veigar deeply imprinted the entire icon in his mind. His vision blurred, and Veigar withdrew from his cultivation state, opening his eyes after keeping them shut for so long.

"Have I obtained the legendary cheat?"

"And one with unlimited growth potential at that?"

But whether that was true or not, Veigar could not investigate further for the moment. Mental and physical exhaustion had already overtaken him, sending him into a deep sleep.

Perhaps it was fate. The hero possessing this passive skill—Superior Evil Power—was named Veigar, and his name was Veigar as well.

Compared to other heroes, Evil Little MageVeigar, who possessed this passive skill—had limitless room for growth.

Because the effect of Superior Evil Power was that kills or assists would permanently increase his spell power.

As long as he was given enough time to grow, he would show everyone what true dark magic was.

And now.

The passive skill of Evil Little MageVeigar, from the game, had transferred onto Veigar himself. The surge of heat that had flowed from Veigar's forehead into his heart earlier was the result of Superior Evil Power entering his body from his soul.

As for what effects Superior Evil Power would have in reality, Veigar would have to explore and uncover that himself. After all, games and reality were still different.

The next day, Veigar woke from his deep sleep.

The sky outside was already bright. Fortunately, the Ninja Academy was on break today; otherwise, Veigar would inevitably have been punished for being late to school.

After washing up, Veigar headed toward the forest south of the village.

When he arrived at the riverbank, the first thing Veigar did was check the fishing traps he had set.

The six traps had yielded a bountiful harvest. Not only had he caught enough small fish and shrimp for two or three meals, he had also caught a large salmon weighing over three pounds.

Looking at the salmon in his hands, Veigar did not think about how to cook it. Instead, he wanted to test his cheat—Superior Evil Power.

At once, Veigar pinned down the fish's head with one hand and drew the short knife he carried with the other.

Perhaps sensing that its life was about to end at Veigar's hands, the salmon struggled continuously, but it could not break free from Veigar's hold no matter what it did.

Quick-eyed and swift-handed, Veigar gave the salmon a quick death, using his short knife to gut it.

As Veigar butchered it, the salmon gradually lost its vitality and died at his hands.

Veigar placed the prepared salmon on a large stone slab he had washed clean by the riverbank. At the exact moment the salmon completely lost its life force, changes appeared in Veigar's eyes. The icon of Superior Evil Power appeared in his pupils, while a strange force emerged around him, circling his body.

Veigar also saw wisps of profound black energy rapidly dissipating from the salmon. He could sense that the mysterious energy escaping from its body seemed to be calling to him.

Before he had time to think, Veigar reached his right hand toward the salmon. The black mysterious energy that had been dispersing flowed through his hand and directly entered his body.

"So comfortable."

The instant the black mysterious energy entered his body, Veigar felt a warm current rush into his heart. Then his entire body grew warm and comfortable.

He could not hold back a soft moan.

But the warmth came quickly and faded just as fast, as if it had lasted only an instant.

Coming back to his senses, Veigar rubbed the stomach that was growling with hunger.
