Dante sucked in a deep breath and calmed himself down after celebrating mentally for a bit. It was impossible for a young man like him to be indifferent before such a great benefit, and he didn't plan to be.
However, he did need a calm and cohesive mind to continue, so he regulated his scattered emotions and popped the next fruit in, this one being the Darkness one.
Since he was somewhat familiar with the process, Dante immediately got to work sorting out the threads before him, eventually spending about 30 minutes before he felt a huge change.
An explosion seemed to occur in the depths of his soul space, towards the void where the threads that were connected to the back of the main quantum gate led to.
All this time, Dante had been unable to see where the threads led to, like their endpoint was situations in another dimension. However, with this silent explosion, he could finally see what it connected to, and it was marvelous.
Amidst the boundless expanse of the void in his soul space, there existed an entity that was shaped like a tree but was unlike any one Dante had seen before.
Its form defied the ordinary, being akin to a celestial wonder of the universe. It was a tree made up solely of the threads that Dante had been sorting out up until now, extremely intricate and intertwined. They formed its very veins, which glowed with an ethereal radiance and even pulsed with each second, as if they were beacons of guidance in the darkness.
The tree itself was a harmonious blend of being very translucent, its visible bark and leaves glowing with vibrant purple hues, strongly possessing a sense of the otherworldly. It seemed to transcend the boundaries of the physical, existing as both a part of the universe, his soul space, and an entity beyond it.
Dante guessed that it was a higher-dimensional existence, probably the very one that saved him and granted him this power? All the threads he had connected to it, but they only formed a small part of it.
It was no wonder that trying to control or move those threads yielded so little progress. Even if he had 5 million Intelligence SDI, he still would not be able to use his mind to control this tree because the threads were too few.
It was more likely that even if he did have the mental force, he would just snap the threads and sever his connection to this tree. Dante also now understood why sorting out the threads yielded so much more progress than controlling them.
It was like a water hose. When the hose was tangled and bent, the water flow was constricted and slow, but if you separated them and straightened the hose out, the water flowed out smoothly.
Dante's Quantum Entanglement was a standalone ability, Dante realized because even if he snapped the threads, his superpower would still exist. However, its grade would quickly reduce, and his future would be limited.
This tree represented endless possibilities for his Quantum Entanglement, allowing him to access higher-dimensional abilities and simplify them into his superpower. This was why he always caused commotions when breaking through and also gained mind-boggling powers that many could agree were broken.
The universe struggled to balance out Dante's abilities most of the time, and even with that, Dante could find clever loopholes like using the virtual fruits to progress.
Dante could also tell that this was just a projection of the tree. His little lower-dimensional mind could obviously not fathom or process the actual nature of the tree, so this was a virtual replica made in a form that he could understand.
Dante hesitated but did not contact it. It was not that he wasn't curious, and it wasn't that he wasn't wary, but it was mostly because he doubted he could actually speak to it with his current ability.
It's more likely that his mind would explode on attempted contact, and unless he was like those reckless main characters who had cosmic luck to save them, that would be the end of the road for him.
Dante reined in his curiosity and rather dealt with a more pressing issue. He had received a wealth of feedback from the tree in terms of possible abilities he could acquire for the C Rank of Quantum Entanglement.
They numbered ten, and when Dante parsed through them, his breathing became heavy. First, he saw a brief history of his superpower up until this point.
[F Rank: Base Ability
Quantum Entanglement - This superpower allows the user to teleport between two different universes using a quantum tunnel, allowing him to appear at any spot in which he had initiated the teleportation from. Places where teleportation had been initiated were termed 'Quantum Markers'.]
[E Rank: Upgraded Base Ability
Quantum Teleportation - This upgraded ability took the F Rank base ability and added a new feature, which was the ability for the user to now travel between placed quantum markers instantly, regardless of distance or location in both universes or through both universes.
E Rank: New Sub-Ability
Quantum Transposition - This was a new sub ability that allowed the user to enter Quantum Worlds with their real body, able to go in and come out freely, even obtaining abilities and powers related to the quantum lifeforms within those worlds.]
[D Rank: Upgrade Base Ability
Quantum Placement - This upgraded ability took the F rank base ability and the E Rank upgraded base ability and added a new feature, which was the ability for the user to now consciously place quantum markers down at any spot within their mind's reach, allowing them to teleport there at will using Quantum Teleportation.
D Rank: New Sub-Ability
Quantum Depository - This new sub-ability opened up a special portable space that the user could store inanimate objects in for any length of time, the objects preserved in the exact form they were put in. They could then retrieve the items at will from any place, whether in either universe or even within quantum worlds.]
And then after that came the list of possible upgrades, split into those for
[Quantum Upgrades for the C Rank
C Rank Upgrade Paths:
1. Quantum Flux: In this upgrade, the user can manipulate the flow of time around quantum markers. They can slow down or speed up time, allowing for strategic planning, accelerated training, or even aging or de-aging objects and people.
2. Quantum Transportation: The user can now establish a stable connection between two quantum markers they place. This allows them to teleport back and forth between these two points at will with more than one person, creating a stable pathway for instantaneous travel. The user can set up multiple pairs of quantum markers, greatly expanding their mass teleportation network.
3. Quantum Banishment: The user can remotely trigger any quantum marker causing all targets be they living or non-living within a certain range to be unilaterally sucked into a quantum tunnel that leads into the void in between universes, guaranteeing instant death regardless of their power.
4. Quantum Fissure: The user's teleportation tunnels become unstable on impact, creating small, localized quantum fissures. These fissures can be triggered remotely, creating sudden and unpredictable disruptions in spacetime that can rupture living and non-living things. It is an insta-kill unless the target also had significant spatial ability.
5. Quantum Clone: This upgrade enables the user to split their consciousness between quantum markers, effectively allowing them to be in two places at once. This could be used for multitasking, reconnaissance, or coordinating complex actions simultaneously
in different locations. This creates a quantum clone at the target spot that possesses 10% of the main body's power.
C Rank New Sub-Abilities:
1. Quantum World: The user gains the ability to create a permanent Quantum World in which they own and control, with their own custom rules and laws within that may or may not be accessible in the real world. The Quantum World can be superimposed onto the real world for a short time, allowing the user to use the power system within externally for a short while.
2. Quantum Healing: The user can now heal any Quantum Poisoning on any person, allowing them to fully recover from the disease. The user can also heal the Reality Poisoning on quantum beings that enter the real world, effectively preventing both sides from perishing.
3. Quantum Bestowment: The user can bestow a pseudo-quantum body on any real being, allowing them to enter quantum worlds and access the power systems within permanently, but they are not immune to quantum poisoning. The same goes for quantum beings towards reality.
4. Quantum Replication: The user can create duplicates of any quantum item they have in their possession, and these items can be taken into reality. Depending on their quality, they can be merged with reality's laws, and their functions usable by all beings.
5. Quantum Imprint: The user can leave a temporary mark on objects or individuals they touch. These marks can serve various purposes, such as tracking, communication, or mobile quantum markers when activated through quantum teleportation.]
