[ 'Mental Energy Recovery Potion_One shot' purchased - 50 SSP Consumed ]

Hurriedly grabbing the black conical flask-shaped bottle, I immediately removed the cork and gulped down its content, only then did I slightly calm down a bit…

A few seconds later, I could feel a cool and fresh breeze travel from my stomach into my head as the headache finally started to dissipate, my mind space now had a large oasis in the middle of it.

'Another bad experience to add to the list…'

A head-splitting headache couldn't be described as my most painful experience considering what I have gone through so far, but it was definitely a new type of torturous experience.

Taking a few more seconds to calm down, I stopped myself from using the low reserve I had of mental energy to check my situation as I opened my status panel and quickly thought of how much I should invest

The item named as 'Mental Energy Recovery Potion_One shot' by the system was by no means capable of completely solving my problem of overdrawn mental energy, after all, it could only recover about the amount of mental energy that I had when I first unlocked 'Telekinesis', however, it was at least good enough to be the first step.

Reclaiming a desert with just one oasis would be a very hard task, but it's still possible unlike reclaiming a desert without a single drop of water, especially, if you have a method to duplicate this water!

[ Wisdom +3! ]

[ Wisdom: 45.01 ]

The effects of adding just 3 points to wisdom would have normally just increased the quality and the amount a bit, but in this case, where my mental energy has barely gone back to a sixth of what it had, the effect was simply miraculous!

[ 'Mental Immunity' has leveled up! ]

[ 'Mental Immunity' has leveled up! ]

From the very beginning, I didn't exactly know the extent of the effects of the 'Mental Energy Recovery Potion_One shot', all I thought about was trying to cure the 'deficiency' that caused the state of my mind space, only then could I think of other steps and eventually choose a method just like I did.

Though very common in most games, the 'potion' selection of items had never appeared before me whether it was in the previous stages' system shops of within the domains, naturally, this made it one of the targets that I had in mind for purchasing since they could be life-saving items at the right times, and this whole incident has indeed stressed on that point.

…...

'That should be enough…'

After going into mental 'meditation' for half an hour to make use of the effects of point addition, I was able to recover over half of my regular amount of mental energy.

The pain in my head, the strange feeling of thrust that had been distracting me from thinking about anything deeply even after the headache disappeared, was finally gone.

Only now did I manage to look at the system log with clarity as well as scan my mind and heart to check the cause for all of this…

'This… It really worked…?'

[ You have acquired the elemental skill 'Unnamed'! ]

[ Special effect 'Forced Realization' has been triggered! ]

[ Initiation of 'Unnamed' commencing! Please choose the initiation target… ]

A quick mind scan quickly revealed what I have received from the 'Knowledge Processing Center' as the only new foreign piece, but…

'It wasn't a low stake gamble at all? Or is this special effect only…'

The so-called 'Forced Realization' seemed to be like a deadly honey trap, though a misunderstanding passerby would think it's luck's blessing, it was actually a two-edged blade.

The only reason I quickly chose to take the risk of using that many points for the sake of a fifty-fifty gamble was the fact that I could simply discard the result if it was less than desirable, but in this case…

'Wait… I chose to do that?'

As the second find that I got from my mind scan was revealed, I realized that there was actually no reason to worry that much, the only mishap that happened was actually just the severe consumption of mental energy, everything else…

'I subconsciously made the decisions…'

Though the system's 'Forced Realization' seemed to have a hand on how the whole thing took place, I was still the one who decided to go on with the initiation, after all…

'Brilliant!'

The 'Unnamed' merged technique was simply one of the most positive results I could ask for, the gamble was simply a complete success!

But it seemed that thanks to 'Forced Realization', the initial response of my subconscious mind was caught as an affirmation of proceeding, which in return started the carving process on one of my elemental conductors automatically and with full force, the only problem that caused my misfortune of a head-splitting headache was the complexity of merged flow channel…

'I guess that's the price to pay when one tries to get too close to perfection…'

The completed 'Unnamed' elemental technique was simply like an endless hole that burned mental energy that is both high in quality and amount, it was simply a 'defective' technique, however…

'It's quite suited for me.'

One of the only few reasons that a complete technique could be described as defective would be that it had a 'deficit' that made 'unlearnable', but the 'deficit' in this case was only capable of degrading me from a fast learner to normal learner.

Using normal 'Elemental Control' techniques to carve flow channels on all of my elemental cells and even practice their preliminary use wouldn't usually take a day from me as a person whose most advanced ability is his mentality, but that was no longer the case using this 'Unnamed' technique.

The value of the 'Forced Realization' that allowed me to carve one flow channel was obviously highlighted with the help of that comparison, only taking me two hours in the whole process, even when considering the overdrawn mental energy problem, its value didn't drop by much.

After all, now that the effect was gone, even I couldn't precisely tell how long it would take me to carve each flow channel. It seemed like I was given the chance to try 'normal' progress this time…
