The Rank-Up to Beta went unhindered and without flaw, and a little over an hour after, Brenden and I entered the grav room, which had the HIGHEST density of beta particles one can get, exceeding that of even Instances.
The two of us sat there, being bombarded by three times Earth's normal gravity, covered in sweat, yet we both had big smiles plastered across our faces.
Sure, Ranking Up was a cause for celebration and excitement; however, that wasn't necessarily the reason both my brother and I were one step from cackling like children on Christmas morning as we tore into the presents; no, it was instead because our Timing was Absolutely perfect.
Not only had we begun the process of adapting Beta-Particles at the same moment, but we even finished our Rank-Ups simultaneously, something that, to my knowledge, had never been attempted before; I mean, why would anyone even bother? It's not like there were rewards on the line in the Origin Timeline.
