Chapter 140. Unique Ability: Late Bloomer—Possession
As the Chaos Eye unfolded, I shifted my gaze toward my sister. Information about the device cradling her and the incomplete immortality elixir flowed directly into my brain through my eyes.
Next, a familiar status window appeared—one I had glimpsed once before.
『Status Window

It was virtually identical to the status window from when I had previously wielded The Sun Eye at its peak—a display that seemed to hint at her ability currently undergoing awakening.
But what I sought was far more than this trivial information. As my arrogant magical power converged once more through my eyes, the Chaos Eye strengthened to its absolute limit and unfolded.
First, I needed to examine the status window. Previously, I had averted my gaze before fully comprehending it, ultimately failing to discover the true reason behind the obstruction. This time, I had to see it through—only then could I find another method, even without an elixir.
〚Awakening in progress…〛
〚Aw@#ening!@#$…〛
〚!@#$!@#$!…〛
The characters distorted and shattered. At this exact point before, I had been unable to endure further and averted my gaze, failing to examine the System properly and catching only a glimpse of some unidentifiable entity.
This time, I would see it through. I steeled myself against the throbbing headache and burning sensation in my eyes, scrutinizing the System as if dissecting it.
Finally, the truth revealed itself.
〚Awakening in progress…Unique Ability: Late Bloomer (大器晩成)—Possession (憑依)[Origin—EX]〛
This is insane. I gasped in shock and squeezed my eyes shut against the searing pain. What had I just witnessed?
After gripping my eyes for a while to dull the agony, I turned my gaze back to the System and, after confirming once more, finally understood.
“Origin-tier with EX rank?”
While difficult to compare directly with Divine Authority, there was little dispute that she was awakening to a high-grade ability equivalent to Divine Authority itself. No wonder she had been lying dormant all this time.
In essence, her genes had been concentrated entirely on this. Unlike me—a talentless wretch whose only awakened unique ability was the curse of Misfortune, a negative power—she was a genius and a mad monster.
That was my sister. Of course, assuming she awakened.
I pushed beyond my limits. Now that I had confirmed her unique ability, advancing to the next stage was not so difficult—I merely had to endure the pain.
I delved deeper into the System, tearing through it to uncover the answers I sought.
“Found it.”
〚Unique Ability: Late Bloomer (大器晩成)—Possession (憑依)

Description: A great vessel is forged only through vast stretches of time. Your soul shall be transmitted to an Alternate Dimension to endure the duration necessary for expanding the vessel of your spirit.
Ability
-Random Alternate Dimension Soul Transmission (Time Ratio 10,000:1)(Highest compatibility flesh possession)
-Upon death in the Alternate Dimension, return to the present world.
-Upon return, open〛
First came information about my unique ability. Reading that information, I let out a hollow laugh. The time ratio was absolutely ridiculous….
My sister had fallen into this deep sleep for exactly 8 years and nearly 6 months. Of course, based on current time.
Before regression, I had lived in this state for over 18 years….
That meant she had survived 18,000 years in the Alternate Dimension. What kind of monster was she? Or had she become a dragon?
How could anyone possibly survive that long?
Probably, even she wouldn’t have known her unique ability. Given the time ratio, the plan was likely for her to survive just a few months in the Alternate Dimension before returning with tremendous power.
But my sister was far too capable. She survived for over 8,500 years.
“This is absurd. Should I be happy about this…or sad…? Well, it’s certainly surprising.”
I closed my eyes for a moment, suppressing the pain, then pushed the Chaos Eye to its absolute limit once more.
In the end, I realized the only way for Shin Yu-ah to awaken through normal means was to die in that world. I wouldn’t force it any further.
Possession—a form of status abnormality in a sense, but certainly not a malicious one. That meant even using an Elixir couldn’t guarantee awakening.
‘No, not just the legendary-grade Elixir alone.’
Even using Elixir, the mythic-grade elixir, might be impossible. A sigh escaped me. But I didn’t give up.
‘I might obtain something new from the privilege.’
Upon reaching 30%, another privilege would be granted. Like the absurd reward of the Weapon Projection right from the 10% achievement, an equally ridiculous reward might be given.
What if that reward could awaken my sister?
I shifted my gaze beyond the System toward my sister, lying motionless as if dead.
I pierced through her mental landscape, diving deep within. Simultaneously, the massive, solid barrier that had once stopped me and rendered me unconscious blocked my path again.
-Move.
Before the Chaos Eye, now evolved into an authority far superior to before, the barrier was nothing more than an annoying obstruction.
Rather than passively accepting its attacks and restrictions as before, I cursed at the barrier, overwhelmingly tearing through part of it and confirming what lay beyond.
A new world entered my vision.
The Alternate Dimension. Among countless dimensions, a new one became visible.
But there were limits to what I could see. My sight was ultimately derived from someone else. I couldn’t exceed a certain distance from the original owner of that sight.
But it was enough. What I wanted to see wasn’t the new world, but its owner.
It was a mountain where verdant vegetation grew beautifully. A vast mountain range so expansive I couldn’t see its end. On the highest peak stood a pavilion, and within it sat a woman whose image entered my vision.
A woman with eyes I had seen once before—my sister.
The possessed body wasn’t much different from my sister sleeping in the hospital room. With the highest compatibility rate, even her appearance was similar.
But the personality and behavior dwelling within that appearance had changed drastically. Just by looking at her eyes, I could tell what kind of world she had lived in and how.
Eyes black as pitch darkness, sharp as a legendary blade, ferocious as a monster, arrogant as an emperor.
This time, those eyes also perceived my gaze. In a situation where an ordinary human would immediately draw their sword in caution, my cute and clever sister leisurely sipped her tea while meeting my eyes.
-So there exists one bold enough to spy on me so openly. Do you not value your life?
What kind of speech pattern is that? My sister possessed someone for 8,500 years and became strange!
The Chaos Eye transcended its limits. From that distant place, a System Message appeared showing the Chaos Eye’s level increase, and I could see far more.
Simultaneously, the System window of the body my sister possessed appeared.

A hollow laugh escaped me. With stats that could only be called monstrous, abilities cascaded down in endless succession.
At this level, calling her a Divine Seat would be entirely fitting. No, merely the fact that she could ascend meant she already possessed strength equal to or surpassing most Divine Seats.
She had raised two origin-grade stats to the SS+ limit, and the final stat—seemingly related to the soul—had grown to the SSS+ threshold. Well, with 8,500 years stretching before her, achieving such heights was certainly possible.
If I were granted similar time… I could reach that level too. Perhaps?
‘The Supreme Martial Realm.’
I had never heard of it before. The Murim I knew consisted of only three realms—Heavenly, Earthly, and Human. Yet judging by its name alone, it was no trivial world.
If anything, the three Murim I knew seemed insignificant in comparison. The absolute master of such a place, no less.
She succeeded. My younger sister. But of all things, a Demon—I sensed it from her tone, but she has fallen into darkness.
My small, adorable younger sister has been stained by shadow.
-That gaze is somewhat irritating.
A hand swept through empty air. Simultaneously, my vision inverted. The connection severed.
“This is insane.”
Impossible. I exhaled deeply and nodded. Only at this level could she truly be called a woman of the Shin Clan.
At the same time, I understood why my sister hadn’t returned during those 18,000 years. She cannot die. Already the world’s supreme absolute, how could she possibly perish?
Too powerful, she cannot even sever the possession. Yet despite everything, my sister—always cute and mischievous, but traumatized by the word “death” since childhood—could never take her own life.
Even if her body transformed and grew stronger, my sister, who had to accept our parents’ death at such a young age, would never do such a thing.
‘No, the real problem is… she doesn’t even consider the possibility of dying and returning.’
Her unique ability surely never revealed this. Memory manipulation must mean exactly that. Perhaps she believes it’s reincarnation rather than possession.
‘In a world without the Abyss or the System, she could never know.’
The methods available to me through the Abyss or System to reach that world are extremely rare and limited. Yet they do exist.
I opened my inventory and hurriedly searched for what I needed, eventually finding one item.
“Found it.”
〚Item: Dimensional Transfer Portal [Legend-A+]〛
Currently, only rare-grade items have been unlocked. To unlock legend-grade, I need to acquire at least 80% ownership. In other words, I must raise my authority level to at least 8.
A distant prospect, yet better than before.
No, it’s actually advantageous.
‘30% Achievement Reward.’
If it grants a desired skill just like last time!!!
‘A skill to traverse dimensions!’
I can trace the dimensional location through the Chaos Eye and verify it again, then cross dimensions to reach that place.
The problem is my younger sister refuses to die. Even for me, abandoning all that power and returning isn’t a decision I can make lightly.
But one thing is certain—I need to go there myself first.
“The only method is the 30% Privilege.”
I rose to my feet, brushing off my clothes. There was no time to waste any longer.
I set my feet in motion. My destination was the Tower of Ascension.
