Chapter 105 Satanification Volume 1

… Additionally, the Katana has tons of potential to develop as well due to the fact that it will be powered by this button-sized Origin Chi battery as its power source, right?" Cynthia explained, and then she added. "Hence, there is much potential for its growth in the near future."

Hearing her say that, his eyes glinted with full vigor and then he whispered to himself in an undertone. "Oh, then I should start focusing more on my katana and the Button-sized Origin Chi battery and begin more research on developing the resilience and toughness of my katana."

"You should do that…. It'll be even more productive if you use the Mechanical Laboratory of the Unholy Lair One Point 'O'." Cynthia suggested.

"Oh, I almost forgot about that. Among the three features provided to me from this Unholy Lair One Point 'O'. That's the only one I left to visit. So, tell me, dearest Cynthia. Could there be any mechanical developing machines that I am not familiar with? Yeah, I mean the most sophisticated one." Bobby questioned because he had already seen the advanced civilization in the two other features and they were light-years ahead of the current human civilization, so he thought the technologies inside the Mechanical Laboratory would be really mind-blowing.

"Yeah, I'll guess. But I'll not provide any more information regarding that than this because I don't like to spoil the fun of your surprise when you see them." Cynthia replied, cutting their current topic of discussion short.

Suddenly Bobby seemed to remember something, and he asked her in a low, and urgent voice. "Hey, what about the extra reward I'll get for defeating that level 15 puppet?"

"I was going to come to that…. Well, I almost forgot about the extra reward for you defeating the level 15 energy level puppet because of your questions about the grading of your katana and another twist in our discussion about the paradox of sending your thread of consciousness deep inside my consciousness. Then, here we go." Cynthia said in a mile-a-minute voice, and then she made a snapping sound of her fingers.

Plop!

Immediately after that, he heard the familiar dinging sound, but this time, it was sonorous to him and it appeared as a notification in his mind.

Ding! Ding!

[ Bonus Reward For Defeating level 15 Energy puppet! ]

[ A Skillbook on Volume 1 of Transformation Spell, Satanification! ]

[ Are you up to the challenge of ingraining all the information in your brain? ]

[ Yes Or No ]

"Hey, did you think I'm that dense to refuse this opportunity?" Bobby responded briskly, with no second-guessing. "Oh, yeah, fucking hell yes!"

Ding!

"Okay, Mr. Bob, this will be a rough ride, but hang on until the very end." Cynthia gave him a head's up first and then she yelled, "Start the transferring process!"

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The next moment, Bobby became utterly blank as his consciousness was forcefully sucked into his forehead. The next thing he knew, he was standing on the surface of a vast water reservoir, naked from head to toe.

"Wow, my friend, you're really in good health." Cynthia's voice reached to him, bringing all his attention to her. She saw him totally naked and was attracted to him. She coughed, calming herself, and then began explaining to him patiently. "Ahem, alright, listen carefully, just underneath this sea you are looking at right now, there is a gigantic statue that represents Satan in his true form. In order to learn the first volume of Satanification, you have to observe the head of Satan and try to remember it, and then after you are sure that you have remembered everything about the head, you have to design the head of Satan using your consciousness thread. Well, off you go and stop wasting much time here. And good luck!" "Oh, and one more thing, remember this: 'What we see is not always true, sometimes it's just a manifestation of data collected by our eyes to our brain; hence, what we see can be fabricated because it wasn't done by us, to begin with…. Everything is in the eyes!" Then she remained quiet once again.

First, Bobby observed his surroundings and, as far as he could see, into the endless blue sky and the vast endless sea. And after taking a deep breath, he jumped inside the water, diving gradually down at first and he saw nothing inside, not even a fish inside the water and then he sped up as he further dove into the sea.

After several minutes of diving deep inside the water in his vision, he saw a mountain with the shape of a humanoid, a rounded human-like head with a pair of curly horns protruding from its forehead.

After reaching there, he saw the giant stone statue at the bottom of the sea, and he stopped diving there.

"Hmm, what a gigantic statue?!" He mused and then he said to himself, "Alright, let's do this." He activated his Devil's Eye to observe the head, but he couldn't do much with it since the Devil's Eye belonged to Satan, so somehow it rendered the ocular skill useless. He then shook his head and thought, "Fine, then I will go around it while observing every nook and corner of this head."

After that, he swam moving his hands toward the head, and then began to observe every part of his face first, and saw that the face of the Satan's statue was just like the human face, nothing changed and the only difference was the pair of horns growing outward from its forehead.

He remembered every minute detail of the stone statue's face without a problem because he had a high level of memory. With just a few glances, he was able to recall everything about the face of the statue. So he began to move around the statue and continued observing the head and just as he reached the back of the head, he suddenly halted and asked himself dumbfounded, "What the hell?! Why can't I remember its face that I just saw a moment ago?" He kept pondering and tried to re-imagine the face of the head and failed to remember it. So he then moved toward the face and saw that this time the face and somehow he could feel that this face was the not face he saw a moment ago. This time, he stood there looking at the face for several minutes and began to move around the statue, and just after he reached the back of the head, once again he forget the face he had just seen and he exclaimed, "What the fuck?!" Then he swam quickly and stood in front of the face and he said after pondering for several minutes. "Huh, so it has different faces. No, something is missing here. I need to reconsider the riddle of this face."

Then he continued doing the same thing, as before circling around the statue while observing the head of the gigantic stone statue, and like before, he kept forgetting the face all the time and it also kept changing all the time.

He thought deeply and whispered, "No, it was not just the face I'm forgetting… I forget every part of its head that I observed. Then let me see what will happen if I moved around it in reverse."

This time, he moved around the stone statue while observing the head in a reverse direction than last time, and he finally figured out something. "Oh, I get it now. Those faces and the backs of this head do not appear to be from the same person. It's as if I saw the face, then saw the back of a different person, then I would no longer remember the face I saw, and that's how I figured out that if I saw the face, then saw the back of the same person, the memory of the face I saw before would be gone, and similarly when I saw the face, the memory of the back of the head in me was wiped away as the face belongs to a different person. What a fucking bizarre test I'm going through right now?" "So in order to picture a complete image of the head, I need to see all the parts of its head all at once in a single glance which is not possible at all as I can even use the X-ray vision now."

Amid his ruminations, he suddenly remembered Cynthia's last statement when he was just above the surface of the sea. And he repeated after her, "....remember this, 'What we see is not always true, sometimes it's just a manifestation of data collected by our eyes to our brain; hence, what we see can be fabricated because it wasn't done by us to begin with…. Everything is in the eyes!"

"Hahaha…. Now, I understand what she means at that time. Thank you, Cynthia," Bobby laughed happily as he finally figured out the way to finish this trial. "Everything is in the eyes! Obviously, if I want to see the entire head of this statue, I need to use my X-ray vision, but that doesn't work since the eyes of this statue somehow have the same ocular skill as mine, so it canceled my ocular skill. So, first I have to have an ocular battle with its eyes and beat it and…. Hahaha."

Cynthia, who was currently observing Bobby, curled his lips on hearing him say that. "He finally realizes what the riddle behind this riddle means.

Now, all he needs is a breakthrough in his ocular technique if he intends on beating the statue's eye ability."
