[Lumina's Skill Previews Leaked: Overpowered, But the Flaws Are Equally Devastating!]
"What the hell is this? The skills are already being leaked?"
Even though Lumina had told Asta that they should part ways and that she could handle the rest of the journey alone, she knew that Asta, given her perception of Lumina, would never allow such a thing.
In the end, Lumina said nothing more, letting Asta escort her to her room. Using the excuse of being too tired and wanting to rest, she managed to send Asta away.
Once Asta was gone, Lumina immediately indulged in her laziness, her entire being seemingly collapsing into indolence. She grabbed her phone, sprawled across the bed, and began endlessly scrolling through its contents.
Her feet swung rhythmically in the air, mirroring her mood.
This scene persisted for quite some time, until Lumina's scrolling came to an abrupt halt upon stumbling across a particular post.
"The flaws are that devastating? I don't remember anything like that..."
Intrigued, Lumina clicked on the post, eager to see if the poster was fabricating claims or if they had genuinely obtained firsthand access to her skill reviews...
[The Version 0 skill strength leaks for Lumina are roughly as follows. Just take a quick look—she's the strongest Abundance character, but she has plenty of flaws too. We'll need to see Versions 3 and 4 for the full picture. For now, just enjoy the spectacle.]

Lumina clicked on the post. The first thing she saw was a brief description and an image. After skimming the text, she opened the image to examine it.
The image contained no extraneous details, only a few simple lines of text:
[Lumina's strength is immense—currently the strongest Abundance character. Let's break down her strengths and weaknesses:]
[Strengths: Basic Attack provides AoE toughness reduction and AoE healing. Combat Skill fully heals the entire team, and she also grants a series of damage-boosting buffs and debuffs that weaken enemies. Her Ultimate Skill is ridiculously overpowered—combining defense reduction, damage amplification, healing, energy regeneration, control effects, resurrection, and more into a single, turn-long Domain Skill. (P.S. The Ultimate Skill should look spectacular, but I only have the beta version, so I can't see the visuals.)]
[Weaknesses: Without Eidelons, she has no debuff removal! Her Ultimate Skill consumes an absurd amount of energy—you might not be able to use it even after three or four actions! She lacks any Off-Field Healing!]
[Eidelon Two turns her into a Main DPS, while Six Eidelons unleash heaven-and-earth-shattering power. That's what I'm seeing now, but they'll definitely nerf her later, since her Eidelon boosts are ridiculously OP...]
[In summary: Although she has more advantages than disadvantages, each flaw is critical. Still, she firmly holds the top spot in Abundance. While her Eidelons might change, as long as her purification ability isn't weakened, pulling for Eidelon Two remains the best strategy.]
[By the way, Version 1.7 is a bit special. All characters might be featured alongside Lumina (rumored, not guaranteed).]
"Hiss... How are these guys getting their information so fast?" Lumina exclaimed, stunned by the nearly perfect accuracy of the leaks in the image.
Seriously? I just uploaded these materials yesterday! How did you guys leak everything today?
Is this mole really that good...?
Lumina sighed inwardly, grudgingly admiring the mole's information-gathering prowess.
Oh well, what's leaked is leaked. I don't really care anyway.
In fact, these leaks might even hype up the players! o(* ̄▽ ̄*)ブ
Just don't spoil the plot for me...
Lumina shook her head, dismissing the thought. With a gentle swipe across the screen, she scrolled down to the comments section below the post.
[Defense debuff, damage buff, healing, energy regeneration, crowd control, resurrection—Lumina's kit has it all! Verified: every character is just a support for Lumina (crying and laughing). The person who posted this must be an obsessed Lumina simp (laughing).]
[My desire wants me to believe this leak, but my brain tells me it's just a joke. Enjoy the show and don't take it seriously (smiling).]
[Holy crap! A support for every character? Harmony masquerading as Abundance? Have I arrived at Penacony ahead of schedule?!]
[Just the final fantasy of a dying Lumina simp.]
[Even if the leak is true, between Version 0 and the launch version, they'll nerf it into oblivion anyway (covering face with laughter).]
As Lumina had anticipated, the sheer audacity of the leaked information meant few people took it seriously.
Setting aside Lumina's absurdly overpowered kit, the idea of every character being a support for her was simply impossible...
Now that every character is a side banner for Lumina, who will be rerun in Version 2.0?
Anyone with half a brain would realize this is absolutely impossible.
"Don't believe me? Just wait, you'll be terrified!" Lumina snorted softly as she scrolled through the comments, but said nothing.
Her finger continued to swipe downward, searching for any "Little Cuties" who might actually believe the leaked information in the image.
As expected, where there are "smart people," there will always be "idiots." Lumina quickly found a comment from someone who bought into the leak:
[The claim that all characters will be rerunning in the gacha is absurd, so I won't comment on that... But I do think I can evaluate Lumina's strength to some extent...]
[According to the image, Lumina at Zero Eidelons is highly toxic. To counter this, you'd need to pull for her Eidelons—a tactic perfectly aligned with miHoYo's monetization logic. Plus, her Character Portrait has already been revealed, and skill leaks usually surface within a few days after the portrait is released. While there might be some discrepancies, the overall pattern holds true. Therefore, I believe Lumina's strength is guaranteed! Even if she's not quite as powerful as the image suggests, the difference shouldn't be significant!]
However, this comment sparked a fierce debate among the commenters.
[Reply to OP: You're saying a character on the Path of Abundance would possess traits of Harmony, Nihility, and Erudition? And that unlocking their Eidelons would transform them into an invincible, all-purpose Main DPS? Such a character might exist someday, but there's no way they'll be released in Version 1.7.]
[Reply to OP: Kid, wake up! This isn't Penacony. (laughing emoji)]
"I think I've come up with a rather amusing idea..." Watching the commenters tear into the OP, Lumina's eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if she'd had a brilliant inspiration.
Tapping lightly on her screen, she posted a single, concise message:
[I'm an insider. Lumina's skill leaks are 100% real. The gacha is fake—not only are all characters available, but all Light Cones are, too.]
[Reply to OP: Hello, I'm a doctor at the psychiatric hospital. Our evaluation indicates you have a mental illness. Please...]
[Reply to OP: Did you hit your head too hard?**]
"Hmm?" Lumina's comment had barely been posted when several replies flooded in. She merely snorted dismissively at them, offering no rebuttal.
The harsher they are now, the sweeter my satisfaction will be later...
In some distant corner of the future, when Lumina's comment proved true, she didn't gloat. Instead, beneath each comment that had refuted her, she simply replied with four words:
"I Told You So"
