Omni-Mastery

Chapter 124 - ‘Omni-viewing Eye’

Due to potential danger of being tracked by the assassin one again, I decided to first work on what I needed the most, Perception, after all, an assassin would lose half of his ability once he is seen.

As for how much I planned to invest, I actually planned to increase it till I managed to unlock the limit break ability with 20.01 as the limit, after all, double my current perception should be enough to deal with the shadow assassin.

I started increasing my Perception by units of 0.1….

[ Perception: 10.49…..12.19…..13.99…..14.29….15.09 ]

[ Perception stat requirement reached! ]

[ Mind Ability 'Sensory Perception' unlocked! ]

It felt like I had a grasp of the area not surpassing 5 meters from me, as if it were my own territory. A 'Sensory Area' to be exact.

However, I suddenly felt my mental energy gush out of my mind into my surroundings, and although it stopped once it reached 5 meters away as well, the sensation itself was different, it actually felt like I had countless eyes observing this area, completely incomparable to the clouded 'Sensory Perception'!

[ As you already unlocked 'Telekinesis', 'Sensory Perception' evolves into 'Mental Perception'! ]

[ Due to the influence of 'Mental Perception', 'Mental Map' (Special) evolves into 'Omni-viewing Eye' (Unique)! ]

Thump!

Slowly digesting the information inserted into my head, I knew that increasing Perception was truly a great idea, it wasn't that great if 'Sensory Perception' was all I got but 'Mental Perception' and 'Omni-viewing Eye' were close to cheats!

'Sensory Perception' was simply a danger sensing skill, just having this passive ability would allow one to know whenever a living being or an object entered within 5 meters of his location, it was quite simple, but it was easy to use, and also a good counter to the shadow assassin's ability.

On the contrary, 'Mental Perception' was anything but simple, it allowed one to have a complete view of the same sensory area of 'Sensory Perception', from every angle possible, it was simply more of a perfect counter to the shadow assassin's ability, but it was simply too complex to manage as the human brain had limited capacity to process, although it wasn't that harsh for me but having it on passively like 'Sensory Perception' would be mental exhausting.

At this point one would think that 'Sensory Perception' is better than 'Mental Perception', but the evolution of 'Mental Map' simply proved that wrong.

'Omni-viewing Eye' simply changed its previous function from being a static blackboard into a globe like television screen. With 'Mental Perception' acting as the video feed, and 'Omni-viewing Eye' acting as a filter and an organizer all the while relying mostly on my photographic memory, it simply erased the deficit of 'Mental Perception', and made the 'Sensory Area' a forbidden territory.

As a last check I casually held the throwing dagger which was lodged into my body yesterday and still had its presence concealed till the point, and the result was as expected.

It was as clear as it could be, not only did I discover that the concealment was removed within my 'Sensory Area', but I also found out that I my current location was pinned by the unknown assassin….
