Ruvian finished reading Griffer's Runeheart and found himself staring at the empty space where the sapphire page had been.
There was nothing worth noting about his Runeheart.
Nothing at all!
Even Ruvain himself was a little surprised that the loud, thick-headed guy possessed a magic affinity at all.
The rest of his graded-based attributes did nothing to improve his impression.
They were modest to the point of being forgettable, which only made Griffer's earlier bravado feel out of place.
Honestly, those attributes were exactly what one would expect from an average Class E scholar. And Ruvian understood why people clung to Runeheart stats.
They were easy to rely on, and gave the comforting illusion of certainty. Ruvian did not deny their usefulness.
But they were still just simple graded-based ones.
In actual situations, experience, awareness, and the ability to stay composed mattered just as much as raw strength or mana, sometimes far more.
