While I couldn't practice my Sub-Technique for some reason, I strangely found that I could still train my meditation technique.
Through it, I discovered that the meditation was slowly modifying my body. My mana began flowing in and out of me naturally, like breathing oxygen, energizing me the same way a good night's sleep would.
I was both confused and ecstatic. This meant one technique was considered natural by the system, while the other was viewed as artificially made.
Because of that, my body didn't suffer any side effects from using the cursed Meditation Technique.
After several attempts, I discovered that absorbing the world's energy allowed me to stay awake for at least a week—though not indefinitely.
Each time I used cursed Meditation, the energizing effect would last for a shorter duration, and only proper sleep could reset its effectiveness.
