The shadowy figure doesn't ahve any real definitive details. Can we be sure that's not Rou's hand there? It doesn't really look that withered to me, and the fact that the shadow looks the way it does may be attributed to the fact that it's an unknown person, and as such there's not really any details shown. That said, I don't actually think that's Rou's hand...just saying that it's probably not an impossibility.

Still, though...it's fairly unlikely that's actually the case, given the circumstances he sees that ability under. It's more likely that it's something related to his blessing, or maybe even his own reincarnation. It's hard to say for sure, unless the author specifies it.

Heck, I don't think he even describes what the Dryad's Blessing and the [BLANK] of Kin abilities actually do, he just mentions that they're something he's granted by the world.

The author's ability list doesn't extend to those sorts of abilities, sadly. I wish it did, though...since on top of those there's a bunch of unique/rare skills he (and others) get from the Psalm completions.

Some of them ARE included in the list, but basically because he's eaten sacred treasure(s) later in the story that give him these abilities. I'm not sure how effective they actually are...or if they allow him to get increased benefits under the same conditions as the innate abilities when they activate.
