Max clenched his fists, his mind racing. He wasn't just anyone—he was an SSS-Rank class holder. The pinnacle of talent.
Sure, leveling up was expected to be harder for him. The higher the class tier, the more resources were required for even the smallest breakthroughs. That was normal.
But hitting a hard stop? That was unheard of.
His body shouldn't have reached a saturation state—'not yet.' It was like something was actively blocking his advancement, a hidden restriction he hadn't accounted for.
A saturation state—a dreaded bottleneck where an individual could no longer level up after reaching a certain threshold. It was a natural limitation, a hard cap imposed by their class restrictions.
But that wasn't Max's problem.
His class was SSS-Rank. The highest tier. A level of potential so vast it was considered limitless. Others might struggle with class-based restrictions, but for him? There shouldn't even be a saturation point.
And yet…
Here he was. Stuck.
