Obtaining 10x rewards! Reincarnated into a novel as a side-character! - Chapter 94

Mind space! A spy?
Chapter 94

Just like that, a few weeks passed as everyone settled back into their lives.

The phenomenon was roughly rounded up as well since no one was able to find the cause or reason for it.

The clan guardian was questioned by a group of worried elders, but she didn’t tell anything useful and only dropped vague sentences.

The head-judge, who had some clues that it was regarding Oliver, also investigated more, but in the end, after a few months of continuous investigation, he could not find anything.

He knew that Mistress Ophelia surely knew something as well, but he did not dare to tell the other elders about that.

He wouldn’t even know how he died the next day; Mistress Ophelia kept her private affairs private. No one was allowed to talk about her and any action she took unless provided permission by her personally.

He could only drink his frustrations and silently observe Oliver. He didn’t dare get too close to him either; the clan guardian was with him, and he didn’t want to offend her.

In one of the courtyards.

Oliver was sitting cross-legged, and in front of him were multiple empty vials that once contained various expensive potions.

From vitality-enhancing potions to espera-strengthening potions.

He had gulped down all of them.

He was getting used to handling the large amount of espera.

‘So this is Abyss energy…’

He thought in his head as his hand was suddenly coated in a dark blackish-red hue.

The energy was potent and pulsing with dread and power.

‘It is stronger than espera…’

On his other hand, a colorless energy flowed out. It was gentle and completely still.

It was his espera. He had already managed to completely stabilize it thanks to the enhanced talent he now had.

Not to mention, after his monthly allowance had increased twofold, he was able to spend his time in luxury as well.

He could buy any potion he wanted in the clan market without batting an eye or get any weapon he had wanted without worrying about the cost.

With the help of multiple potions, he was able to suppress his espera and coordinate his increased physical strength as well.

His body was also now full of energy.

He gazed at his now improved body analysis.

In the weeks he had been sorting out the unknown knowledge he had received when his body became an Abyss circuit.

He had managed to make two clusters in his mind, one that he had some idea about, and the other cluster carried the knowledge that was too complex for his current level to even comprehend.

It seemed that he had now become a creature of Abyss, thus gaining resistance against any sort of divinities.

He smiled. Although this meant that he might never be able to access divine energy, it was good because he had Abyss energy, something very difficult to obtain.

He closed his eyes, and the next moment he opened them, he was in a pitch-black space.

Everything here was pitch black.

It was his mind space.

Something he was able to access after he became a circuit of Abyss.

He gazed down at himself, and his entire body had turned white. In the whole dark space, he alone was the whitest thing.

His whole body had turned featureless, and he was like a being with nothing but a white-colored form. No face, nothing…

From head to toe, everything was featureless and pure white.

The space was quite large and wide. It was unknown where it ended, but he could sense it was limited.

From the knowledge he had acquired, he knew that as long as he grew stronger, it should expand likewise. The Abyss energy was low in quantity, but it was quite potent nonetheless.

His gaze wandered in the black space before landing on some weapons that were casually lying around.

With the advantage of having a mind space, he had canceled the need to have a storage ring as he could directly store his belongings in the mind space, which was countless times safer than any storage ring.

Of course, he still purchased a storage ring in order to let others know that he was not an abnormality and used the storage ring to get his items.

‘The clan is indeed generous when they recognize you.’

He thought as he gently touched the ring on his finger. These rings were very expensive, and even with his monthly allowance, he was hesitant to buy one.

But fortunately, the clan gifted him one a few days after that incident. He suspected that the head-judge was involved in him receiving this ring, considering how he was the sole witness to what happened in the chambers and had authority over other elders for such tasks.

No matter what, the ring was empty, and everything from the good quality weapons that he had purchased to potions was now all stored inside his mind space.

He came out of his mind space and got up.

He could finally feel the espera, an overflowing energy.

His water element had never been more active. He could feel its force and effect increase multiple times as well.

‘I can start to get creative with the element now…’

Earlier, it had been pretty much difficult for him to utilize the water element for anything other than a small water ball, but now things were no longer the same.

He stood up. At the moment, he was in the secret spot behind his courtyard surrounded by trees.

It was a hot day, and he was sweating buckets, so he packed things up and went back to the courtyard.

Upon reaching the courtyard, he was greeted by an unexpected voice that was not there before and he was not used to.

“Welcome back, young master.” A woman in a maid uniform bowed as she used a towel to quickly help him wipe the sweat.

He stopped her and did it on his own as he glanced at the woman.

This woman was a spy.
