Chapter 153 - The Human Limitations



Another bright day arrived and Lucius got ready for it. Quickly finishing his morning routine, he got down to his lab to check up on his resident beast, the bore shrew. The beast had been fed once more last night by Lucius just to make sure that it would not wander out.

For now, it seemed to be heeding his commands and when Lucius gave it the order to stay in the cage with hell energy, it had obeyed them. Even though it was awake when Lucius walked in, it stayed in its place and moved in circles inside the cage.

​​

"Hmm… this seems to be stable. Far more than I would have expected." Lucius said upon observing the beast.

He then extended a finger and released a small sliver of hell energy to feed the Bore Shrew along with the command to stay in the cage. Once that was done, Lucius left to eat breakfast.

He entered the dining hall and sat down at the table. Today Lita and Gabriel both were not here which was a bit unusual.

"Where is mother?" Lucius questioned Kiana, who was waiting at his side.

Kiana was like a shadow to Lucius now. She would always be accompanying him when she was not doing other things and would be there for Lucius if he ever called for her. The only times she would leave him alone was when Lucius specifically asked for it.

It was an arrangement Lucius was fine with and made him feel a sense of nostalgia. In his past life, he had his little digital assistant watch that he used to wear. And now he just had a life sized living version of it.

"Aunt Lita has gone to the monthly outing with the other noble ladies," Kiana said.

"Monthly Outing? They have something like that?" Lucius asked, feeling a bit strange.

"Yes, all of the noble ladies of the city meet up and visit different scenic spots in and around the city. They talk and gossip about things while having some snacks and plenty of wine." Kiana replied.

Hearing Kiana\'s words, Lucius didn\'t know what to think of it. But he reckoned that it was just another part of the nobilities customs that was more oriented towards the female nobles.

"I see. When will she be back?" Lucius questioned.

"Hmm, that depends on how long Aunt Lita can hold back. She says those noble ladies are quite tiresome, and she doesn\'t really like them. She only goes there as a customary response from the Inanis family.

She will stay with them till she can tolerate them and once she feels it is too exhausting, she will take her leave." Kiana answered, slight hints of pity obvious in her voice.

It was evident that the noble ladies were not really something that Lita particularly liked spending time with. Especially with the recent changes in the situation in the Inanis city and the overall Land of Etara, there was plenty of gossip and rumors to go around.

"Alright then," Lucius replied and got to eating. 

Once he was done with his breakfast, he went to study in the library. He would study till it was time for lunch or something else came up. This was his regular schedule and he preferred keeping it like this.

At least until he had learned a sufficient amount of things that were to learn about this world and how it worked. There were a lot more things he wanted to get started on, like the Artifacts, but he simply did not have the time for that as of now.

Lucius reckoned that till the Brewery was up and running, doing anything with artifacts would be a long shot. He had already finished reading the theoretical books that Master Kain had left him, but those were simply the very basics of the basics.

Lucius wanted to get more advanced books about the artifacts and how they were made, but he did not know if this would be the right time for it. He was already busy with multiple things and it would only get messy if he added more things to it.

\'Waiting will be the better option. Once I have some things up and running, I can add more. A steady pace is better than rushing it.\' Lucius thought to himself.

He closed the book he was reading and put it back on the shelf. The book was about the various noble families of the Land of Etara, and Lucius had tried to memorize as many of them as he could.

This was when he realized something he had missed out on for a while.

"My memory has certainly improved… and not just by little but by a lot." Lucius muttered to himself.

While his memory was not photographic, it was still far strong than it should have been. Lucius tried to think of what could be the reason behind it and could come up with a few.

The very first reason that he could think of was the unknown amount of years he had spent traveling across the many dimensions and worlds. He did not know what kind of long term effect it had on his soul, but he could remember everything that he saw and heard during that time quite vividly.

"Is it the influence of the Amulet of Barrom?" Lucius wondered.

Since he was in the soul form, when he was traveling through the worlds, Lucius understood that he was not restricted by the human body anymore. Lucius had studied the soul theory quite a bit in his past life and knew that a soul was often limited by the vessel it was in.

It was a double edged sword in a way. While the body protected the soul and kept it stable, the soul was also limited in its capability according to the vessel or the body that it resided in. For example, the normal capacity of an average human\'s brain was about 2.5 Petabytes.
