Chereads / The hymn of vivshi / Chapter 39 - My body

Chapter 39 - My body

I woke up in a glass jar filled with some see through liquid that resembled water. But instead of drowning, I could breathe, I'm still the body-less head. I sort of recognized and remembered the room I was inside. Devina's room. The door opened and Devina stepped inside. She looked at me and told me everything was fixed.

I asked her how everything was fine after all the things I did.

She responded that everything is just fine.

"How?"

"What do you mean how?"

"How is everything fine? Don't they have like bad memories of me?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

Devina then started to explain that she had altered the memories of all the people in the vicinity. Instead of remembering me as the Aeon of Freedom going bonkers, they would instead remember me as someone who saved them from a monster.

"So you did this to everyone in the area?"

"Well, ye."

"Devina, I have another question, when will I be able to get my body back?"

"Well, I can reconstruct your body out of metal but that wouldn't be that ethical would it?"

"Sounds pretty cool."

"That you have balls of steel?"

"You can make those?"

"Well yes, but I can't really make sperm for you. Haven't done that before. I think that you wouldn't be able to have children."

"So how am I supposed to get back my body?"

"You have the Aeon on Rejuvenation with you, don't you? Where is the cat?"

I told her that Oslovi disappeared on a rainy day and we never saw it after.

"So you basically let it run away?"

"I mean, it is an Aeon and has the freedom to do whatever it wants."

Devina told me that, to reconstruct my body out of the natural original flesh and bone, the only way to do that is by the Aeon of Rejuvenation.

So what was the plan? I asked Devina how we were supposed to continue after this.

She pulled her shiny whiteboard out of her closet and started doodling on it. When she turned around to face me, she had written 5 things and marked them with each with a numerical value from 1-5.

1. Restore Vivshi's body with the Aeon of Rejuvenation

2. Go to the underground and continue with the plan

3. Cure Fiviana with the Aeon of Rejuvenation in the process

4. Cook more methamphetamine just in case

5. Find Zeströrer

"Devina… how are we supposed to find Oslovi without any clues tho?"

"Who said there are no clues?"

Devina's cheek lit up and the cap she was wearing flew off her head. The yellow flower of Dexterity blooms and roots itself into the floor. Devina put two fingers on her forehead and strained her face.

She seemed like she was trying to force something out of her body. She stopped and slammed her fists into the floor. Roots entrenched themselves into the floor but yellow liquid dripped from her arms into the roots. Colliding and merging to become a golden solid foundation. It seemed like she got stuck on the floor but then Devina opened her eyes and called out:

"Aeon Acclimte activate. Scour the world for hidden depths, overturn every stone, erode the clandestine. Ameliorate my thoughts."

She paused.

"Activate. Connaissance de l'inconnu."

The golden roots spread across the rooms and continued even further beyond. It rooted itself in the streets, in the air, I looked out the window and saw it had ingrained all its roots into all the possible places. It didn't stop, it just ceaselessly continued to grow longer and longer until it finally stopped after a few minutes.

Devina retracted all her roots and returned to normal.

"Uhh.. what did you just do?"

"I checked the world."

"What do you mean you checked the world?"

"Like I said."

Devina had spread her roots into every single atom on earth and it sent back information. She could just rule out any information that she deemed useless and throw it away. Even with a limitless mind like Devina, the atoms on Earth 1,3x10^50 are simply too much to keep. It would just overload your brain.

The human brain's capacity is roughly 10-100 terabytes. 100 terabytes is a terrifying number to imagine. After all 100 terabytes is 100 000 gigabytes. If you were to imagine that. It would be like 2.5 trillion pages of plain text.

Amplifing this, with "connaissance de l'inconnu" causes the brain to shift from a limited place of information to an infinite void. Shoving infinite information into a void without anything. The information of the atoms is classified in 0s and 1s. Each material and individual piece in this world contains a certain amount of 0s and 1s. These combinations of 0 and 1s can be detected with aeon acclimate of Dexterity. This means searching for anything in the universe is possible for the Aeon of Dexterity's acclimate. The reason Devina's brain doesn't overload in that moment of overflowing information is because her consciousness is transported to the void and there her being itself can view all the information that has been collected by the roots of Dexterity. While being in that void, it isn't her brain that is in there, it is her very soul or you could say consciousness. So it means that there isn't a limit on the information that goes through her. But when she has seen what she wants, she selects the certain information that is needed, and all the other data is deleted. The soul/consciousness is transported back into the current world and she gains the information.

"Okay Devina, you are seriously confusing me. But you know where Oslovi is right?"

"Pretty much yeah."

"Where is it then?"

"Animal food market."

"What?!?"

"It is being sold off to the public as a gourmet dish."

"It is still alive?"

"Yeppers, it is in a cage unconscious."

"I'm getting my cat back."

"No you are not, you bodyless talking head. Someone else is."
