What were they exactly? And in what form or substance do they exist as?
As Compass Carburettor began to think in such a line of thought, he noticed that the number of orbs being pulled towards the Essence Beast had reduced. This was despite there being the same number of orbs nearby as compared.
It wasn't a gradual decrease that might have resulted from the Essence Beast hitting its limit. No, this happened right after he made contact with Chenger's mind. Once he thought about that, a certain statement resounded in him.
A part of his Luck had been stolen by the Destiny Luck System.
He was unable to understand how this was possible. As what he didn't know was the fact that the Destiny Luck System had already devoured the Protagonist Luck System. Meaning, it was his natural counter.
That was why he suffered tangible damage from that exchange just now.
