Chapter 396: 396
In the underground clinic of Anita"s, the group continued to do some minor tests regarding the new organ . At the beginning, nothing was happening, but after a few more tests something started to manifest . The first one to manifest a special ability was Michel, she could manifest a construct of objects . It would seem that she could manifest anything that she has a basic understanding of, and the deeper her understanding of the object the stronger and better the object was . An example was she could manifest a closet with the exact same build and shape as the original since she knew the exact details of its construction and the materials used . Then if she manifested some money, the money would look fake, since Michel was unsure of the materials and process in which the object was created, simply put she had a shallow knowledge regarding the object in question .
Still, that wasn"t a problem, since the best thing about this ability was for combat . Michel was not only a seamstress but also a blacksmith . All the weapons she uses have been made by her from scratch . Michel was called the woman with a thousand weapons that"s because she does have a thousand weapons, but also because she can use all kinds of weapons . Michel might not be as good as Tanya with a spear, nor as good as Ryu with a sword, but she was still high up there in all those arts, she was a jack of all trades master of none type of fighter . She made up for this weakness by having all sorts of weapons and dealing with the situation flexibly . Now that she could manifest her weapons out of nowhere her fighting ability had risen by a whole lot .
The next to manifest her ability was Lilitth, the little girl"s abilities were quite different from Michel"s . Michel"s ability was a one type kind of ability, but Lilitth"s was more versatile . You could pretty much call her ability [magic] . Lilitth could summon flames, a blade of wind, a block of earth, control water, and even call forth a little bit of electricity . After a closer inspection, Anita noticed that Lilitth was actually controlling the atoms in the air . She was unable to do some things with atoms, but for some reason, she was able to use the four elements of wind, water, earth, and fire better than the other things . Lilitth herself couldn"t understand too much about the process of how her powers function, but for some reason, she felt like she could improve it further .
Niki also had a similar power that could bend the laws of the world which was also practically [magic], but her output didn"t show as any element known to man . Her power manifested like those energy beams in anime, it was as if she was drawing power into herself . Once the power gathered, she could either use it to physically enhance herself or release it as a powerful projectile . She could also do other things with it, but she couldn"t understand how to . She also feels like she could do the same thing as Lilitth, but she needed a better understanding of the elements to perform the same thing .
Actually Lilitth was also able to do the same thing as Niki but found it easier to use for a lack of a better term, the [elemntal spells] . It would seem that to be able to use these so-called spells, a person needed to have a basic understanding of how that element worked .
Hina also manifested a supernatural power and it was one type kind of ability like Michel"s . Hina was able to control and move earth, the soil, the very ground itself was made into a weapon . Unlike Lilitth"s control over earth, Hina"s ability was much more profound, and seem easier to use . Lilitth needed to understand the basic principles of gravity, the composition of the soil, and other such things to make a large rock appear . Hina, on the other hand, could do the same without any of the knowledge, and the rock was even bigger than what Lilitth created . Her power using earth was on a whole other league compared to Lilitth"s .
Rika also gained an ability and it was quite a fearsome ability to have in this modern age . Rika could control and create electricity . Coupled with her innate abilities, she just turned into someone even stronger than before . Still, Lilitth could do the same, but compared to Rika"s version Lilitth"s was just a tiny spark . Rika was unsure of how strong her electric base attacks would be, but she was sure that it would be very destructive .
The twin"s new organs hasn"t fully developed yet so they wouldn"t be able to manifest any powers . Finally, Anita"s ability was also a one kind type of ability . She gained the ability to [heal] just like an RPG priest, she was able to use a skill called [heal] . Anita also instinctively understood that if she uses hear [heal] ability numerous times, it would probably level up and grow into a stronger version of [heal] . It was a weird feeling, to gain a basic understanding of these abilities base on instinct alone . Anita knew that she would need to look into this even further if she wanted to gain a better understanding of these things .
For now, based on her current data, this is what Anita found out . The new organ had given them different forms of powers . Anita categorized the powers, with [Ability] and [Magic] . [Ability] were the distinct powers, a one of kind type of ability that seems to be special to each individual . Next was [Magic] like [Ability] these power also has numerous subcategories . [Elemental] and [Energy gathering], there might be more, but for now, these were the only ones Anite knew of . It also seems that each individual of the [Magic] category could do the same things, but each one seems to have a specific specialty .
It was also observed that the [Ability] users have a much higher destructive power, while the [Magic] user had a wider range of powers but much weaker compared to the [Ability] users . Also based on what Anita heard from how the others described the feeling they got from their powers, both [Ability] and [Magic] users had the chance to become much stronger, but the way to increase their strength seems to be different for each person .
All of these things stated in Anita"s research are names that were subject to change . Anita decided to use these terms since it was easier for other people to understand the terminologies used . There were still many mysteries regarding these abilities, and Anita knew she really shouldn"t come to any conclusions with how little her sample size was . She needed more people to conduct a proper experiment . After she was done writing her current findings, the group heard something happening upstairs .
The moment the group of ladies headed upstairs, they saw an unusual creature wreaking havoc in the living room . It was a rather weird looking pigman, that"s the only way they could describe what they saw . Anita who saw the creature immediately told everyone else, "Please don"t kill that creature, and capture him alive . That thing might prove to be valuable research material . "
After saying that the others looked at each other, trying to think who was the right person for the job . It was painfully obvious that Rika wasn"t able to handle that request since all her skills were meant to kill her opponents in one shot . The only one who has ever survived her attacks head-on was Lyner alone . She was sure that even that st.u.r.dy-looking monster won"t be able to last one move from her .
Lilitth, and Niki even with their new powerful abilities were also not up for the task . Not to mention Hina who was too scared to even look at the monster, as she started cowering behind her mother . So that left Michel and Anita to handle the situation, but as Anita was getting ready to move out and attack the pigman, Michel stopped her .
"You just gave birth and even had a C section, you shouldn"t move so much . I"ll handle this . . . It"s also a good time to test this new power of mine . " Michel then proceeded to summon a metal rod using her new powers, as she faced, the monster before her .
