The improvements were apparent by themselves.
The first change coming from his race changing from human to now a True Royal Alpha Chimera.
‘ That's a mouthful...’ Markus thought offhandely, even as he willed for the race to expand in detail.
[—Race ~ True Royal Alpha Chimera – A first of its kind, artificial in nature but carrying the raw ancient power of an ancient cataclysm. The True Royal Alpha Chimera is the highest class of Chimeras, able to bring upon dominion to any race they assimilate to themselves.]
‘ Well, that's a whole bunch of not that much information...’ Markus thought with frown.
What he only obtained from that was that he held a higher form of reputation than what a normal alpha had, heck, he was even a True variant of said Alpha.
But what he wanted to see from the races description wasn't shown.
He wasn't shown the cheatlike capability to grow stronger through willpower alone, and that just threw a wrench to his plans but accepted it—having atleast expected as he was an artificial True Alpha.
So he decided to focus on the next thing of note, his bloodline had finally reached 100%.
He didn't know what that meant for now, but he was sure he would be finding out soon.
Then there were his enhanced stats.
Honestly, Markus thought that the boost would be larger than what he obtained.
Heck, the biggest boosts to his stats were given to stats he hadn't expected to even benefit from the serum.
Mana having gotten a 35 Stat boost that he didn't know where it came from.
Then there was the boost to his charisma, his least important stat.
Seeing the boost though he shuddered thinking of what it would be after claiming the [Fae Beauty] Trait.
Grumbling he then focused on his newest stat, Mind.
He was actually happy for this one, after all now he could finally use [Source Comprehension].
Well, that's what he hoped anyway.
He still wasn't sure how much Mind one needed to safely use that ability.
So with his status panel skimmed through, he went to the next one.

And immediately he saw change, unknown traits!
He quickly clicked on each and every one of them, finding his excitement bubbling up the more and more he read through the descriptions of his newest traits.
[—Royal Shifter[A] – You are a Royal Shifter, a state above even Alpha's. As a royal Shifter you hold more authority than normal Alphas, being able to induct Omega's, Betas and even willing Alphas into your Pack with a single bite which will heal in seconds into the shape of your royal insignia. You now also exude a royal temperament, those of your race will know of your status the moment they look at you through their Shifter Sight.]
That trait answered some of the questions he had over his new race change, it was good to know that he now had benefits from the ‘royal’ title besides it being flavour text.
Being able to add Betas, Omega's and even Alpha's into his pack was a good thing to him, especially since Alphas which he now was one grew stronger the more subordinates they had under them and the stronger they were—for example, Deucalion.
The next Trait though was mindblowing, something that would lessen the the time needed for him to get accustomed to his body by half.
[—Origins Of Power[SSS] - A Powerful Trait connected to ones aspects of powers/abilities. This Trait allows them to Instinctively understand the capabilities and limitations of any ability they have that they are actively focusing on, allowing them to bring out the potential of said ability even if said ability is not normally used in that certain manner.]
Staring at the description of the ability he immediately marvelled the this one traits utility.
This trait alone was worth a quarter of the pain that he had to suffer through.
With this ability he could uncover the more unused aspects of his abilities, heck he might even unearth new and unexpected ones two.
So immediately he focused on one ability that he hadn't used that much ever since he obtained it.
So with a mental tug he channeled the trait [Origin Of Power] towards [Hive Connect].
It only took 10 seconds before his newest trait showed it's utility and versatility.
Already he had uncovered a use for his ability that wasn't shown in his ability description.
‘ Why didn't I ever think of that?’ He wondered, marvelling at how useful the new information he obtained was.
Markus had just discovered that with the use of [Hive] connect, instead of connecting his brain to other clones and controlling them as if they were puppets—
He could instead, set his clones frozen except their minds and stack the extra processing power, comprehension and have an artificial mind partition in a way that was connected to one brain—the extra clones would be nothing but extra processing power for him if he wanted to utilise his brain to the highest degree.
‘ This would be useful for when I'm using [Trace Gloves] to absorb a ton of information or when I would finally use [Source Comprehension]’ Markus thought being hit by a sudden hint of enlightenment.
He was about to channel the capabilities of [Origins Of Power] towards [Split] next when he controlled himself, not falling to distractions.
He could experiment with his abilities later, when he knew of what his newest abilities even were—but that wasn't the time, because next on the list after the Traits tab was the Skills tab.
So with a small inhale he quickly opened up the gigantic list of skills he was studied in.
