46 Analysis (1/2)
A few hours after Nero finished bullshitting to the Captain, the Gas Giant initiated take-off.
Nero directly went back to his cabin to contemplate and analyse everything once more.
'Woohoo! We successfully achieved temporary safety, took a step towards gaining more information, dodged a fucking rocket that was the Queen without much hassle and unnecessary drama and the most important of all, changed our mindset to be better suitable in helping us reach our end goal.
'Speaking of which, I think we should tear the main quest down into sub-quests seeing as the main quest ending is quite far. The next sub-quest is to become a Demon! Unlike before when we were just Hunters and only needed to temper ourselves and practice a shit ton, advancing in the Slayer realm needs that and much more that we do not know of.
'When we became a Hunter, it took less than a month to advance only because we were not used to mana manipulation at all. Becoming Novice Hunter only took 3 weeks. After that, the effort to advance grew at an exponential rate, after all, these 5 middle stages in mana manipulation are only milestones of the level of mana one could control, not a complete qualitative step up like between Basic mana and Adept mana.
'Ever since we became a Slayer, there has been absolutely no growth. None! Practice and usage of Adept mana don't have the same effect as before, it feels like I'm missing a core fundamental point or concept that will let me smoothly continue once more on my journey.'
After looking through everything he knew about mana, Nero came to a conclusion.
'The Mainland is my key to unlock the chest that blocks me from continuing forward.'
'What the hell kind of analogy is that?' Nova, who had been silent entirely throughout Nero's state of contemplation suddenly spoke up.
'How would I know? All of this just comes to me somehow, only you would know what kind of memory these analogies originate from!' Nero rebuked with a reasonable argument.
The complexities of various vague concepts like space and time weren't fully understood by the current Nero. There were two main reasons behind this, the greatest of them all being the lack of their use and even the deficit brought from unloading this information onto his brain!
He didn't have enough useful accumulation of this world, most of his usual conceptual knowledge gained from Earth had become useless. The deficit brought from 'knowing' about something like time was that it would become another looming factor in the back of his mind that was basically useless in his current situation. It was an unnecessary additive in his thought process.
His mind was yet to develop completely, the mental exhaustion from all the thinking he did and the mana he manipulated was only kept at bay due to the mind tempering method the King had given him and Nova's suppression system.

'Too much thinking will lead to mental exhaustion! My user, please just chill, for now, we're out of harm's way and our future has endless potential, not even I can extrapolate and predict the future!'
Nova berated Nero in a light tone to shift his focus off the matters he could not deal with currently. Nero deeply sighed before getting off his bed, he had yet to properly acquaint himself with others and so he walked out with a new purpose.
