Mana Restoration meant replenishing mana.

Here, it meant replenishing psionic energy.

Psionic energy could only recover slowly over time. A Psionic without psionic energy was like a gun without bullets, the Alt Conglomerate without Jonas, or an ornamental fish without water: they would all die sooner or later, though a Psionic was more likely to meet a sudden end.

What were you supposed to do if someone came knocking for a fight when your mana was depleted? Without allies nearby, you could probably only wait to die.

After the Dream Yushua had used to trap Zero was destroyed, she had exhausted all her psionic energy. For her own safety, she could only retreat to the Alt Conglomerate and slowly recover. There probably wasn't anywhere safer than the Alt Conglomerate in District 25.

Oh, perhaps there was.

Right beside Jonas, somewhere near the Alt Conglomerate.

"I wonder how my dear employee is doing. Even if her psionic energy can recover, it should still be recovering fairly slowly."

District 25 hadn't been peaceful lately. War with the Federation was looming, and Zero remained a threat, so naturally, he needed all his fighting forces in peak condition.

Reality wasn't a game. In a game, a character could still fight at full strength even with over half their mana bar empty; they just couldn't throw skills around recklessly. Here, however, the amount of psionic energy affected how efficiently and smoothly it could be used.

With insufficient psionic energy, it would inevitably be like a display suddenly dropping from a thousand frames to ten. Even if it only happened occasionally, that was enough to put a Psionic in a desperate situation.

He wanted his employees to feel how kind the Alt Conglomerate was, while also preparing for unforeseen trouble that could strike at any moment.
