Partings and Reunions / Everyone's Thoughts
Suika quickly dispelled the spell and then looked at Logos and Pith.
"This is the basic method of using my magic."
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'll demonstrate anything I can answer or do.
"Can your ability discriminate? Like controlling only the part you want to control?" Logos asked.
"Of course!" Suika said confidently.
"So the reason you can't get infected is because you can repel Originium dust and particles from your body?" Silence suddenly realized that this was why Suika claimed she wouldn't get infected even during the Catastrophe.
All she needs to do is use her ability to repel all forms of Originium from her body.
"Then can you extract the Originium from other people's bodies?"
Silence asked excitedly, as if struck by a sudden thought.
Suika shook her head
Unfortunately, I can't do that.
The reason is not that I cannot separate the Originium from the human body, but that the human body is a very complex tissue.
Almost every drop of blood in Infected's body contains Originium microparticles.
However, this spell cannot be precisely controlled, so when repelling Originium, these Originium particles leave the body via the shortest possible route...
Suika said that the three of them understood what she meant.
While the Suika can directly expel Originium particles from a person's body, the Originium in Infected penetrates deep into their body.
The rest of the brain is fine, but the damage that the Originium particles shooting straight out of the brain would cause is unimaginable.
After all, the purpose of treating illness is to save lives, but if we really do that, Oripathy will be gone, but the person will probably become an idiot.
So what's the point of doing this?
Chapter 475 Gathering and Separation
After hearing Suika's explanation, everyone's faces showed a hint of regret.
But at the same time, I'm also very fortunate.
Because if that were the case, Rhodes Island wouldn't be able to keep Suika, nor would it be able to protect her.
All the nobles of Terra would go mad to have her.
After all, as long as she is there, no matter how great the danger, she can be guaranteed not to become Infected. As long as she is controlled, anyone can easily establish an organization or a country, and countless people will be willing to risk their lives for it.
"Whether it's dense or sparse, when this ability is used outside of the body, it's not very precise in terms of movement trajectory."
Advanced usage methods can only be achieved through personal use.
"Advanced usage methods?" Silence looked at Suika.
"That's gigantification and mist transformation."
As Suika spoke, she grew larger and larger.
Amid Ifrit's exclamations of "Holy crap!", she quickly grew into a four-meter-tall little giant, easily reaching the top with a single hand.
"The limit for growth is probably around four or five hundred meters. I haven't actually tried it yet, but it can easily grow to about the size of High-Speed Battleship."
And it turns into mist...
As soon as Suika finished speaking, she disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only a clump of condensed mist.
"I can break myself down into extremely tiny shapes and move around in the form of mist."
After the mist transformed back into Suika's form under everyone's watchful eyes, she spread her arms and spoke.
After listening to Suika's explanation, the group fell silent.
Suika's efforts to develop her abilities put immense pressure on them.
Even the sorcerer LOGOS and the magic master PITH, who were skilled in various spells, could not find a direction for further in-depth research.
After listening with great interest, Silence had Suika use her abilities again in front of a large number of instruments.
After gathering enough intelligence, she saluted Suika.
"I have a feeling Suika your Originium Arts will bring some new research directions to medicine. This data is quite valuable, and I thank you for your generosity."
It's important to know that many people keep their Originium Arts secret, because knowing someone's Originium Arts expertise allows you to make targeted adjustments.
For the sake of their own lives, most people will not easily reveal their Originium Arts.
Suika's actions weren't just an exposure; she practically laid her Originium Arts out in broad daylight for everyone to witness.
If you harbor ill intentions towards her, you can only entertain such thoughts for a moment.
After all, even if the Witch King were alive, he could at most guarantee not to lose to Suika, but he wouldn't dare say he could defeat her.
Because, aside from anything else, Suika's ability is top-notch in terms of survival skills.
As long as she doesn't lose her temper, killing her is simply impossible.
"Let's go to the deck now!" Suika pointed to the nail plate after the test was over.
Unsure of what she was up to, the group went up to the deck.
At that moment, a cold wind blew, and winter rain seeped into the gaps in their clothes, causing them to shiver.
As expected, the deck was deserted.
"What are you going to do?" Logos looked at Suika with a gleam in his eyes.
Suika snapped her fingers and walked to the middle of the deck.
"This rain is still a bit cold, spread out!"
After saying that, she waved her hand, and the group instantly realized that no more rain was falling.
Looking up, I saw that the raindrops started to spread out to both sides after falling to a certain height, like a giant umbrella being raised in the sky over Rhodes Island.
After doing all this, Suika didn't blush or skip a beat; instead, she looked towards the entrance and exit.
Within a minute, operators began to arrive on the deck one after another.
About ten minutes later Suika snapped her fingers again and pointed to the crowd on the deck, saying...
"OK!"
"What is this?" Silence still didn't quite understand what Suika had done.
"Didn't you understand?" Suika smiled mysteriously and then said.
"They'll leave after I snap my fingers again."
After she finished speaking, she snapped her fingers again.
Silence and his group of four looked up at the deck. Soon, the operators on the deck seemed to remember something they needed to do and left. In less than ten minutes, the deck, which had been crowded just moments before, was once again empty except for the six of them.
Only then did Silence realize what was happening.
"How did you do that?"
"As I've said before, the ability to Density and Sparsity is conceptual; the density of a crowd is also a density."
I call the move that just caused the crowd to gather "The Ultimate Technique: The Must-Attend Meeting Technique".
The latter's name is quite simple—"Idle Dispersal."
Suika raised her finger and shook it to bring the others back to their senses.
"This is absolutely terrifying!"
As an expert, logos and PITH immediately came up with several uses.
However, before confirming, the three of them took out their phones and contacted their acquaintances, who were the same people who had appeared on the deck earlier.
Logos asked them in detail why they wanted to come up to the deck and why they wanted to go down.
The answer I received was "I don't know."
Just like a clear mind, although I didn't know why I went up there, the spectacular view in the sky made my decision to go up worthwhile.
The reason for leaving was that I suddenly realized I had a lot of things to do, and it wouldn't be good to stay there too long.
Logos might not believe it if one operator said it, but since everyone is saying the same thing, then this must have been caused by Suika's spell.
"There's no need to make such a fuss, just stop me from trying to get you to Drink Invitation first."
Seeing Logos's furrowed brows, Suika patted his slender waist.
Logos rolled his eyes speechlessly. Indeed, Suika had a lot of secrets, so one or two more wouldn't make a difference.
The interplay of Density and Sparsity —a seemingly ordinary ability—was developed by Suika to an almost rule-like degree.
Logos has to admit she might be a genius in this area.
At this moment, in Kal'tsit's office, she and the Doctor were sitting in front of a computer, where a monitor was playing back everything.
From the moment Suika and the others entered that training room, Kal'tsit felt even more pressure after watching the entire process via surveillance.
Although Suika's goodwill towards Rhodes Island is quite obvious, Old Cat never believes in love without a reason.
But she couldn't figure out why Suika was so friendly to Rhodes Island.
It was as if she herself were a member of Rhodes Island.
Just like when she looked at those operators, the expression on her face was never one of unfamiliarity, but rather, "Oh, so this is what you look like."
The head of the Personnel Department told him that he couldn't sense any malice towards Rhodes Island from his several interactions with Suika; on the contrary, it felt like coming home, which made the prisoner even more uneasy.
Chapter 476 Each Person's Thoughts
Sensing Kal'tsit's conflicted feelings, the Doctor pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, I think you should give Suika more trust."
Although I don't understand why you've always felt some distance from her... like...
Doctor initially wanted to say it was like talking to himself, but then he thought better of it.
"Since I woke up in Chernobog, I've heard about Suika from many operators."
In all these matters Suika never once wronged Rhodes Island.
On the contrary, many people on Rhodes Island survived because of her... and not just the medicine.
Today, he is showcasing his Originium Arts without reservation.
"For someone who has selflessly dedicated themselves to Rhodes Island, if you, as one of the leaders of Rhodes Island, show too much rejection, it will make everyone feel uncomfortable."
Kal'tsit wanted to say, you have no idea how terrifying that seemingly harmless little guy is.
The key thing is that she seems to know a lot of things... a lot of things that the people of Terra shouldn't know.
Kal'tsit became wary of Suika after that conversation following the previous meeting.
Although the other person said they didn't know, her tone was too certain.
As an old monster who has lived for so many years and is also the riddle teller of Terra, she can guess about 80-90% of people's mindsets, even if she can't say she has 100% certainty.
When she returned, she recalled what Suika had said at the time; she clearly had almost blurted something out, but she managed to swallow it back.
As Terra's first prisoner, Kal'tsit has many thoughts and concerns, and these are secrets she cannot tell anyone else.
The sudden appearance of a person, who also seemed to know those secrets, made Kal'tsit unconsciously tense.
"Perhaps I'm overthinking it. If you really think Suika is trustworthy, then I'll give you her file."
Kal'tsit rubbed her temples. Although she was asking Suika, she was actually testing the Doctor in front of her who claimed to have "amnesia."
However, it was clear from the other person's gaze that he admired Suika, but they were not "old acquaintances".
This temporarily put Kal'tsit at ease.
Moreover, according to Suika's own plan, she would stay on Rhodes Island until the end of the month at the latest, and it is already mid-January.
Once this period is over and she leaves, all I need to do is keep a close eye on the person in front of me.
Meanwhile, Suika and her group were discussing the practical application of her ability.
According to Logos and Pith, this capability is terrifying and difficult to replicate (the latter sentence is Pith's opinion).
Pith said that while she could manage to imitate Suika's previous abilities to some extent, she was completely baffled by this kind of application.
