Chapter 146: Testing Out The Discerning Quantum Eye
A few wild animals passed by as Azmond took a quick glance at them with his Quantum Discerning Eye active.
[Fox: Level 4 (Below Tier 0) [{Stats: Strength: 3, Defense: 4, Qi: 0}]]
[Bunny: Level 3 (Below Tier 0) [{Stats: Strength: 2, Defense: 1, Qi: 0}]]
[Bunny: Level 3 (Below Tier 0) [{Stats: Strength: 2, Defense: 2, Qi: 0}]]
A few pop-ups appeared in front of him as he glossed over them and extracted the most important details while leaving out the miscellaneous information.
The 'Quantum Discerning Eye' visualized almost every single thing there was to know about these animals; however, Azmond didn't feel like going through all that useless information. So he dialed it down to just the 'Level' and 'General Stats' for now.
Leaving out the sections that informed him of the 'eating habits', 'mating seasons', 'typical prey', and the such.
Nonetheless, what he did extract from the pop-ups was enough to let him smoothly scrutinize the existence's of those wild animals. He continued to scan all the intriguing things around him before focusing his skill on Boundless and Emu.
He wanted to see what his 'Quantum Discerning Eye' would tell him about his 'companions'.
[Boundless: Embodiment of the 'Boundless System', ????? Stats: ???? Personality: Quite the happy go lucky gal!]
"..."
The pop-up that appeared when he looked at Boundless was sort of to be expected
It would be more unusual if he could fully analyze the existence of the literal 'Embodiment' of the thing that gifted him the skill he was trying to use on her.
He lightly shrugged his shoulders before turning his ability in the direction of Emu, who sat atop Boundless's head like a lavishly decorated crown.
[Emu: {[Level: 78: (Pre Tier 1) {[Stats: Strength: 236, Defense: 287, Qi: 460]}, {[Development Phase: Adult]}, {[Main Abilities: Body Morph: Can morph into the shape of anything imaginable (stats of what it morphs into increase with every level or exterior amplification of 'Emu'), {[Unlimited Devour: Can devour and assimilate anything in existence}], Description: Existence-Bonded-Companion of the User of the 'Boundless System'.
Origin: ????, Background: ????, Potential: ???]
"..." Azmond was left bewildered by the vast assortment of information that flooded his vision when he gazed upon the pop-up.
"Is this for real?" He asked.
Bafflement was written all over his face as he scanned over the information presented to him one more time.
...
Reading it the second time didn't alleviate his amazement anymore than the first time he read it
"..." He let out a sigh full of lethargy.
'Why does Emu appear to be even more overpowered than I am?' He asked himself with a wry smile.
"And why does Emu have 'Background' and 'Origin' tabs that can't be assessed by my 'Quantum Discerning Eye'? Is the relevant information simply at such a high level that I can't view it?"
That was the most logical assumption given the equivocatable circumstances. However, just what sort of background and origin did Emu come from that he couldn't discern a single thing about it?
"..." He began to view the little black and gold slimea slime that was currently jiggling in sync with a different kind of 'slime'in a new light.
He never would've expected the existence he found and named on a whim to be such an unbelievably high-born being
"Well I guess it makes sense, given those grandiose ability descriptions and all." He reassured himself.
"Well, I got the gist of this new 'Quantum Discerning Eye' ability. So I can begin to-"
"Mhmm~?" A melodic, icy voice interjected itself into his thoughts.
He was interrupted suddenly and out of nowhere by a drowsy, mellow voice originating from a certain oversized bed!
Excitement quickly filled his heart before he turned his head faster than the speed of soundalmost snapping itand gazed in the direction of the source with untold amounts of happiness.
-Happiness that only grew exponentially when he confirmed his budding assumption!
"!!!"
A beautiful woman with long, messy black hair and dazzling emerald-like eyes awoke from her deep slumber. Her body was sitting up on the colossal bed as she lightly rubbed her eyes with a cute, sleepy face.
She tried to wake herself up a little more as her tight-fitted robes sensually clung to her well-endowed body.
A few moments pass before she begins to look around her periphery with deep anguish apparent in her tearstained eyes.
She looked left, and she looked directly in front of her. She looked in every direction besides the one where Azmond was...
Intense sorrow built up inside her heart after not seeing her Azmond no matter where she 'looked'.
That sorrow built up to such a degree that she began to cry...
*Drip* *Drip*
Crystalline, tears fell down those rosy cheeks of hers like a broken damn. Her mind immediately went to the worst places when she couldn't find the man she loved.
A man she immediately assumed had died
Those nightmares she had while in the midst of her 'Deep Cultivation Session's haunted her for days. And now...
Those nightmares became her reality.
"D-Did he leave me alone? A-Alone in this world" She spoke through sniffles.
'W-Why'
'W-Why did he leave me all alone I-I had no one in this world' She began to break down.
'No one cared whether I died or not'
Her entire life was filled with nothing except expectation for the things that the people around her expected her to do. No one truly loved her, not even her family...
They only wanted what she had to offer them.
"T-That was my life Before I met him"
Her voice cracked like broken glass; the feelings she was feeling were beyond what she could bear.
"A-And N-Now, H-He- He I-Is" She had already collapsed onto the bed with a face, like a little girl who just lost everything she loved...
"-He is gone" She wept with an agonized cry.
Tears gushed out of those Emerald Eyes of hers like never-ending rainfall. Her thoughts spiraled down a deep and endless pit of anguish. She put her wet hands up to her face before beginning to bawl like a woman who had lost her
Like a woman who had lost Her.. Her
Her whole world.
