Chapter 7 Gamblers Fallacy (2/2)
”Ok, let me try it out now” Alexthe EM Waves around hi that Alex felt was pain, as his mind became overloaded will tons of infor can only sense visible light As for the other EM Waves, he/she will only know that it exists through indirect observation
But Alex, who gained the ability to manipulate them, can sense them all at once!
Now, Alex knehy his brain must be remodeled for hi all of the EM Waves around hi for Alex
He could sense strea around hi ht beca all the colors in the visible light!
Add the infrequent strea out erratically, and Alex's brain found it hard to deal with all these new sources of information
”Hooooh…” Alex had no choice but to temporarily deactivate his Esper Ability first, as he realized he still need so all the EM Waves
”Hey Alex! Are you alright!” It seems like Alex's scream of pain was heard by Clint, as he iave a worried look to Alex as he rubbed the temples of his head wearily
”Don't worry about ave hi my environment with my Esper Ability, and you can say that my mind is still unable to keep up with all the new information that flowed to me”
”Can you tell me about your Esper Ability? Maybe I can help you out” Clint said gave a worried look to Alex ”Many of the neakened Espers die because their brains could not keep up with their abilities You were lucky that you were able to stop yourself, as if you continued on haphazardly using your Esper Ability, your brain ht be mush now”
”I'll take that advice in my mind” Alex said as he shook his head He then told Clint about his EM Manipulation, and the feeling that he had when he sensed all of the EM Waves around him
”Oh, that's an extremely versatile ability” Clint said as he cupped his chin
”EM Waves are everywhere, so you can say that nobody can hide froe And no o, you will be able to attack easily as you have an unlimited supply of EM Waves around you Your only problem is your defensive skills There is no way you can defend yourself perfectly with just EM Waves”
”That I agree with” Alex nodded, as he discovered that his analysis about his ability was pretty similar to the analysis that Clint ht now?” Clint asked Alex as he closed the door of the lab ”Oh, and if you do not knohat a Range is, Range is the area around an Esper where he can freely use his Esper Ability”
Clint then lit a cigarette as he continued talking ”So if an Esper with Pyrokinesis(Fire-Starting ability) has a Range of 1as that object ithin 1 meter around that Esper”
”Oh, let me try first” Alex closed his eyes as he reactivated his Esper Ability, but this tiht
It took Alex some tries do it, but in the end, he was able to successfully filter out all the other EM Waves except for the visible light
Alex then tried 'grabbing' the Visible Light nearest to hiht bea it away
Alex felt his connection with the light bea cut off when its distance froh!” Alex suddenly felt extreme pain inside his head, which forced him to deactivate his ability
”Ha, ha, ha, it seems like I still have to train more if I want to use my Esper Abilitywaves of pain inside his head
”Well, you are just neakened, so you still lack the enough Mental Power to completely sustain your Esper Ability” Clint said as he helped Alex up
”Your Range and the power of your Esper Ability all depends on your Mental Power The higher your Mental Power is, the larger your Range will be, and the more powerful your Esper Ability will be Oh, have you already found your Range?”
”It's 10 ood?”
”Hahaha! Its ood!” Clint said as he clapped Alex' back happily ”Most of the tiets when they awaken their Esper Ability is only around 1-2 meters Of course there are soe, is one of those exceptions!”
”Now that makes me excited…” Alex face lit up as he let out an excited save a hopeful look at Clint as he asked hie and poill increase as long as I increase my Mental Power?”
”Exactly” Clint replied quickly
”But how should I increase et injected with soet that idea? It ain't like that!” Clint said as he shook his head rapidly ”Listen Alex, there are only 2 ways to increase Mental Power”
Clint then raised his index finger as he said,
”The first one is by continually using your Esper Ability until you exhaust your Mental Power Your Mental Poill increasethis process for a long time, and your Mental Poill experience a slow, but steady increase”
”The second way is through some Mind Stones These stones contain Mental Power inside them, and they can be absorbed by an Esper to increase his/her Mental Power However, Mind Stones are extremely rare and expensive, so do not expect that you can use theet it” Alex nodded his head as he heard what Clint told him ”So, the first way is used by the poor Espers, while the second way is used by the rich Espers Aht?”
