[They didn\'t hesitate since they could clearly feel the power gap between you and them. It felt as if they were facing one of the strongest avatar masters, like the Death Envoy or the Hellhound.]

[At least, if they were up against the Hellhound, they would know what killed them. In your case, they still hadn\'t seen your avatar and were smart enough to realize that its ability was to remain unseen.]

[That power alone might seem simple, but it was a horrifying match against most avatar masters since the bodies of avatar masters were weak. It was also worth noting that the power level between avatar masters wasn\'t always pronounced, as it mostly depended on the compatibility and incompatibility of their abilities.]

[For example, a certain avatar master might be stronger than one opponent but weaker against another. That\'s why rule-type avatars like the Death Envoy\'s were at the top of the rankings since they could fight against almost all avatar masters.]

[Furthermore, when an avatar master awakened their avatar, they could either become the strongest or the weakest right from the start. There wasn\'t a clear power disparity between avatar masters; it mostly depended on the abilities of their avatars.]

[In your case, your Invisible Providence avatar was very versatile and even considered a rule-type avatar. Your invisibility and identity distortion could only be countered by another rule-type avatar.]

[You hadn\'t tested the full extent of your avatar\'s invisibility properties, so you weren\'t certain if other avatar masters could see it. The ones you had encountered—Viktor, Sedrick, and Owen—didn\'t have rule-type avatars, and their avatars were mediocre, especially Owen\'s.]

[After Owen and Sedrick submitted to you and their gang became a subordinate of Sky High, Viktor immediately boasted, "Hahahaha! I told you the Phantom Reaper in my Sky High Gang was real! You two didn\'t listen, and now you\'ve been beaten by him! You should be glad you still have your uses, so my deputy spared your lives."]

[Sedrick and Owen ignored Viktor\'s mockery, knowing he was likely just your puppet leader. After all, they knew they could defeat Viktor themselves. It was impossible for a powerful avatar master like you to be the deputy of an average avatar master like Viktor, so they knew you were the one in charge.]

[You also ignored Viktor\'s boasting and said, "Boss, clean up the rest. Just send more money to my bank account and find more information about avatar masters. I\'m off to take a walk in the city."]

[After bidding farewell to Viktor, you left the base of the Sky High Gang and headed to the brighter side of the city.]

[The battle between avatar masters mostly occurred in the darker parts of the world. On the brighter side, the majority of people were unaware of the existence of avatar masters, as the government and authorities suppressed information about them.]

[After all, if gangsters could become avatar masters, so could members of the police and government. From what Viktor had informed you, avatar masters didn\'t technically need an avatar crystal to awaken their avatars.]

[The avatar crystal was just a trigger to awaken the dormant avatar within an unawakened avatar master. Even without the avatar crystal, sufficient stimuli could awaken the avatar, so not all avatar masters awakened through the use of the crystal.]

[The reason most people died after using the avatar crystal was that they didn\'t have any avatar to begin with. The only exception was those who had already truly awakened an avatar and didn\'t have any dormant avatar.]

[In your case, you didn\'t have any dormant avatar, but your soul adapted to the avatar crystal\'s power. This adaptation allowed your avatar to manifest, and the properties of the god-forsaken world influenced its creation, resulting in eldritch-like powers.]

[Without the avatar crystal, there would have been no hope for you in awakening an avatar.]

[Furthermore, an avatar is the manifestation of one\'s soul.]

[The Outer God\'s slave mark and the mental pollution had strengthened your avatar, while your desire to remain unnoticed by the Outer God resulted in the invisibility, presence concealment, and identity distortion abilities of your Invisible Providence avatar.]

[While digesting the information about avatars given to you by Viktor yesterday, you walked through the bustling city streets.]

[You muttered as you observed the city, "At least on the bright side, this city, or even this world, looks peaceful. Home wasn\'t this peaceful with all the skirmishes between the resistance and the lackeys of the Outer God."]

[Arriving at the cafe you had visited in the previous simulation, you ordered a cup of coffee this time, since you didn\'t get your wallet stolen and had money on hand.]

[It wasn\'t your intention to relax, but you didn\'t know what to do next. Unlike the cultivation novels you had read in your past life, which had training manuals and cultivation realms, avatars didn\'t have such things.]

[Theoretically, strengthening your soul should also strengthen the power of your avatar and vice versa. But the problem was, you didn\'t know how to strengthen your soul since even Viktor and most avatar masters didn\'t know.]

[For most avatar masters, their power was already decided upon awakening their avatar. In other words, if they were overpowered when they awakened, they would remain that way, and the same went if their avatar was weak.]

[From what you learned on the Avatar Master Site, there was an unusual and unconfirmed method to become stronger: continuously fighting other avatar masters and using the experiences from these battles to sublimate the soul and thereby strengthen the avatar.]

[However, most avatar masters were skeptical of this method since it required fights to the death, with the avatar master\'s life on the line. The idea was that the threat of death would sublimate the soul, allowing it to evolve into a stronger form.]

[Most avatar masters dared not attempt this, so it wasn\'t confirmed and was mostly considered a rumor.]

[Not knowing what to do next, you pondered on a whim, \'What if I stab the avatar crystal into my avatar? If stabbing it into my body awakens an avatar, then stabbing it into the avatar should make the avatar stronger?\']
