Chapter 190: Please Don’t Have Such Dangerous Thoughts!!
Does Bronya have a type of magic that suits her?
Her superpower is mechanical manipulation, so she should probably develop her skills in that direction, right?
Thinking this, Miori Shiba finally spoke up.
"Bronya, I think you should learn some support-type magic," she said. "And mainly study knowledge related to machinery. After all, your ability centers around mechanical systems."
She began laying out her ideas.
Hearing this, Bronya also started seriously considering the matter.
Liliya, who was nearby, couldn't help but chime in.
"If it's about magic, I can offer some suggestions. Tell me more about your situation."
She was quite experienced in magic, but she'd need more detail about Bronya's condition.
Bronya didn't hesitate and explained her abilities clearly.
The three of them continued their discussion in the courtyard.
Meanwhile, inside his room, Takumi had begun preparations for his own enhancement.
He wasn't in a rush. Before strengthening himself, he needed to handle a few things.
Checking his current points, Takumi was quite satisfied.
The second strengthening was fully funded. The third would likely come soon—maybe after just one more mission.
Takumi summoned Neo.
Neo was now a pool of black liquid, already dissected by Takumi countless times.
He had a complete understanding of its structure.
Now, he was ready to extract its abilities.
Before strengthening himself, he would fuse Neo's power into his own body. Then, during enhancement, his abilities would skyrocket to terrifying levels.
Neo, being a Gourmet Cell demon, was essentially made of black liquid—those were Gourmet Cells.
Takumi used his DNA manipulation ability to fuse Neo's cells with his own, making some selective adjustments.
There were aspects he didn't need.
Also, he still had Neet Princess's severed finger. That woman had gifted him some blood and flesh, which he hadn't used yet.
Perfect time to incorporate it.
With these intentions, Takumi began the operation.
Picking and choosing useful DNA, he proceeded to modify his own body.
Unlike before, this time he didn't transform entirely. Instead, he directly altered his body's internal structure.
Once done, a wave of intense hunger hit him.
Without hesitation, he used some points for healing.
Now that he had plenty of points, he could afford such luxury.
After spending 1,000 points, the hunger vanished.
Feeling the changes inside him, Takumi nodded in satisfaction.
It was definitely worth it.
With everything ready, Takumi activated his second strengthening.
This time it cost 10,000 points.
Next time, it would take 100,000.
Once he used the points, a surge of power descended upon him.
His strength exploded.
Eyes gleaming, Takumi could feel the transformation beginning.
His Herrscher authority was evolving.
That surprised him.
He now grasped his powers with far more finesse.
The power of the Herrscher of Reason underwent a revolutionary change.
Even things he didn't understand—if he thought it should be possible, he could now create it.
"The Power of Self-Assertion?"
Realizing this, Takumi was amazed.
That must be it.
If he wished, he could now annihilate the entire Milky Way in a single thought.
He had officially reached galaxy-destroying level—or perhaps something even stronger.
After all, Takumi didn't need time. One thought was all it took.
Most people with that level of power still needed time to destroy a galaxy.
Feeling this incredible power, Takumi was extremely pleased.
He opened the chat and shared the news:
Takumi: [I'm invincible now!] [Strengthening complete. Totally worth the points~!]
People in the group chat quickly started responding.
Zhongli: [Already done? What level have you reached?]
He had enough points now and was considering enhancement himself.
He was curious how far Takumi had advanced.
Boros: [Details!!] [I'm super curious too.]
After one enhancement, Boros had become star-bursting level.
But Takumi was already strong, and now he had enhanced a second time.
Everyone wanted to know the outcome.
Takumi: [With one thought, I could destroy a whole galaxy.]
The chat exploded.
Fujiwara Chika: [Please don't even think such things!!]
Sagiri: [I don't want to vanish suddenly, Takumi-nii, please don't think dangerous thoughts!!]
Yuuki Asuna: [I'm still in your world, don't think dangerous thoughts!!]
Zhongli: [A bit outrageous, to be honest.]
Himeko: [I log in and this is the first thing I see?]
She couldn't help exclaiming.
This level of strength was terrifying.
Destroying a galaxy with a single thought?
Takumi could practically walk sideways across any world now.
Suoh Mikoto: [That's terrifying!!]
Ais: [Trembling!!]
Akeno: [Yikes!! Please don't think such dangerous things!!]
One by one, the group members reacted in shock.
They all pleaded: please, don't have such thoughts!
Destroying the Milky Way with a single thought? That's just too much!
Takumi: [Don't worry. I'm not that insane.] [Besides that, I've absorbed some of Neo's abilities.] [My imaginary space is now the size of a universe!!] [I also gained the ability to devour everything—any energy or substance can now nourish me.] [And some other powers too. Like Kaguya-hime's regeneration.]
He summarized his new capabilities in the chat.
Kaguya, who had been silently watching, immediately lost it at his last message.
Houraisan Kaguya: [Wait—have you turned into an immortal like me?] [You're not human anymore either?!]
