[Eon's POV: ]
"So, as soon as you activated that card, I felt like everything around me had turned dark, but when I looked closely, that wasn't the case."
The skill had been activated for only a short while of twelve seconds and in that time, almost all the Mana in her body was consumed to maintain this 'buff'.
Something that was certainly concerning considering her Mana purity and the abundance of Mana she could naturally hold as a witch.
The ability from the card turned out to be more dangerous than what I had expected… which sparked the questions about the skill itself.
"You know how I see the true reality with my eyes, right? This boost or ability from the card increased what I can do to a greater degree from what I understand."
"What does that-"
"Shuuu. Just listen."
"Yes ma'am."
She was overly excited right and just wanted to say all that she wanted to say… well, there was something wrong with that, but we can do that while sitting down as well.
There wasn't any reason for her to stick to me like that. She was always pressing her entire body against mine.
"So, the ability from the skill perhaps enhanced my truth seeing eyes, and I was able to see the true nature of this reality… it's difficult to put into words but you can say I could see all the realms, the realm gates, the entire planet, the space, the stars and cosmic things… I even saw outer space!
Including all those coooooool creatures of outer space~!
I could see everything at once~!"
"…"
I was speechless.
"Hehe. It was almost like I had become some kind of a god that can see everything, lol. It was soooooooooo fun!"
"Wait wait Rein. Wait a minute and let me process this."
She was saying she saw everything there was all at once, so I can understand it as something close to (Omnivision), something like the divine skill of the divinities, the [[Gaze]].
That much was understandable to one point and believe as well since it was her one of a kind eyes we were talking about but… she saw realms? Even the outer space that not even the true gods are allowed to perceive?
"Are you sure it was outer space?"
"Hmm? Yes… pretty sure since we have seen it once already, no?
It was the same endless dark and pretty place with those cute-"
"Don't call them cute for now, Dear. Not right now at least."
"Hmmm?"
What the hell was that (Gaze of Silverhorn) thing…?
What kind of creature in this world is allowed to look at outer space and… why?!
Why the hell is an ability like that in a simple skill like this one?!
…or, wait. Was the card actually the reason she saw all that or were her eyes the ones that did it?
There wasn't any way to know what allowed her to see outer space and those horrible creatures of beyond, but if she says she saw it… this skill was certainly not something simple.
There was something about this skill, and the abilities these cards grant. Which, again, was strange.
"Haaa…"
I sat down on the ground and since she was glued to me already, she sat down as well.
"What's up? Why are you like this all of a sudden?"
She didn't understand the severity of the situation. But I wasn't expecting her to understand it on her own anyway.
This wasn't a matter just anyone could comprehend without the knowledge about the truths of reality and space as well as the divine [[( Laws )]].
As mortal beings, we weren't allowed to look at the things beyond this world.
Just to look at the other realms, one has to earn the qualification or have the permission of someone that had the qualifications already.
If someone breaks these laws and doesn't have the authority to back up their attempt, they are bound to receive punishment instantly…
That's how nature works. Elimination of law breaking elements that could become a threat to the entire world was inevitable.
Divine punishment was inevitable for those who do what they should not, and directly looking at the true nature of reality and past the world fabric of the universe, without the proper authority, as a mortal being… was exactly one of the things that would be grounds for that kind of punishment.
Or…
-Oooooooooooooooong!
"Phew…"
Under these circumstances where she had no intention of doing anything wrong, where she was only doing something out of curiosity, where I was the main cause behind her actions, nature thankfully did not punish her.
And instead, acknowledged her actions as something accidental… as well as amazing.
"Hmmm? Wait! Did I just get some kind of a title?!"
"You sure did." I hugged her tightly before saying anything further… this would have been much worse than I could have imagined at the start of this whole skill testing.
She was confused how there was a light around her and a special phenomenon that occurs when a title other than the common titles of masters or grandmasters are given at this moment, but thankfully, she was fine.
This was much, much, much better than some divine punishment where she would have had to suffer… perhaps… perhaps lose her life… but nothing like that was happening right now.
She would receive a unique title that would have some kind of unique effect only she could have, and that was much better than seeing her suffer, because of me.
This was good… yes, this was for the best.
"Oy! What's all this?! What did I even do?"
"Just shut up, you ignorant fool."
She didn't know the kind of trouble she could have been in if she was some kind of bad person who used my skill by force and to not just satisfy her curiosity, but to harm someone else.
She would have been in trouble if I had not forced use that ability card as well… but thankfully, everything turned out just, just fine.
She was alright even after seeing all those things, and I don't want anything more than that.
The title will make her stronger in one way or another anyway, so it was for the better as well.
"Haaaa…"
I sighed.
"Huuuu…"
Took a deep breath.
"Haaaaaa…"
Released it slowly. And, after taking a moment to thank nature, I looked at my Rein.
"Alright. Let's just talk about this after we go back."
"Hmm? What the hell? At least tell me why I got this title… <Accidental seer of first fabric>. It says I will be able to see more truths in the future, so I understand it was because I saw all those things but, was it important enough to give me a title?"
"You will need to know the nature of [Laws] before you can understand why you got this, dear. That's why let's talk about this later."
"But you always said you can't tell me about those Law things!"
"Shuuu… it's different now. So calm down, ok?"
She had a confused look right now as she did not understand what I was saying, or why I looked so relieved right now.
She did not know how bad this could have turned out to be, but that did not matter anymore.
"Haaaa… alright. Let's finish testing out the rest of the skills."
Overthinking over this one thing was useless.
The skill [Cascade or Ark] was unique, powerful, and dangerous. And since we still only know little about it, it was best to first know as much as possible before using it during combat.
"Haaaa…"
I got up with a relieved expression, but right when I got up, she grabbed my hand.
"Eon, I need an explanation, alright? We are only postponing this."
"Of course we are."
You have to know what you would have been up against if things had turned out any differently.
[[ "Celes." ]]
[[ Rest assured master~! There was no one here. Not even any creatures~! ]]
'Lucy?'
[[ *No master. The search shows no sign of life here. I searched for the other beings as well and the result was negative.* ]]
'Use truth and Scan just in case. I don't want anything knowing about this.'
[[ *Yes master…* ]]
If the fact that the representative of Atraxia had received a unique title gets out, in this ongoing conflicts all over the world, there would be many forces who could use this information in a threatening manner.
[[ *It's alright, master. There's nothing here that would be threatening.* ]]
There were all kinds of powers and creatures all over this world. Many that even I have no knowledge of.
'I couldn't take any chances here, especially after those cultist bastards appeared out of nowhere.'
With their presence known, we now knew there was a power out there that was enough to pose a threat to the entire humanity.
And, they were strong enough to have created smart, disposable puppets they could use anytime, in whatever way they wanted.
And, the ones under the true mastermind behind these puppets, the being they compared to the gods, were themselves no smaller threat then the strongest known powers of this world.
'I know I'm not ready to face against them all only my own. So…'
'[Light steps].'
I have to get stronger.
Much, much stronger than what I am right now.
'Only with strength powerful enough to withstand their attacks head on, will I have any chance to survive, and protect what's mine.'
It isn't going to be easy, we know that.
-Swish!
That's why, we have to start from this very moment.
'And by 'we', I mean all of us.'
-Swaaaaaaash…!
