Nothing mattered more than freedom. Besides, the boy was so powerful that, precious as these luxury goods were to others, what did they mean to him?
"They really don't mean much. Although plenty of things here went out of production after the apocalypse and their prices skyrocketed, that's meaningless."
Andrew looked at the things around him, shook his head, and paid them no further attention. They meant nothing even to the boy, let alone Andrew.
Andrew closed his eyes again and sensed the mysterious energy inside his body—the energy stolen from the Mysterious Crystal. The boy had stolen quite a bit and hidden it inside his body without anyone noticing.
"This energy is pretty interesting. Not only can it create telekinetic ability users, it can also interfere with abilities. Good stuff. I have to get all of it and study it thoroughly."
Andrew was delighted by the discovery. Anything capable of interfering with abilities had to contain laws, and very important ones at that. Once he understood them thoroughly, his mastery of abilities would advance by leaps and bounds.
More importantly, if this interference power became one of Andrew's abilities, what ability user could stand against him? He would become the true King of Abilities.
"The key to understanding it thoroughly is that Mysterious Crystal."
After analyzing the energy inside his body, Andrew began sensing the Mysterious Crystal. Once he established a connection, he transferred his consciousness directly into it.
This was extremely dangerous. If the boy had tried it, the vast energy inside the Mysterious Crystal would have wiped him clean in an instant. He would have lost all self-awareness and memories, becoming nothing more than a mass of pure mental energy.
Andrew, however, had no need to worry about that. The Mysterious Crystal could not wipe him clean.
