Now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying anything else. Mia was a tough woman with a strong mentality, so she quickly recovered from her dazed state. However, her gaze towards Kaede Sato was still filled with envy and jealousy.
"You don't have to be so disappointed. Maybe the scientist who made this potion is still alive. You might still have a chance to get your hands on this potion in the future."
Seeing the look of envy on Mia's face, Kaori Sato knew that he was really lucky. In order to make Mia feel better, he forced a smile on his face and comforted her. "That's right," Mia said. "That's right, Mia.
Of course, although that was what Kaede Sato said, he knew that it was impossible.
Putting aside how difficult it was to make this potion, even if it was made, the failure rate of this potion was frighteningly high. It was very easy for people to mistake it as a failed product and repeat the same mistake.
In this world, other than Kaede Sato, who had a hack from the System, there was no one else who could know the effects of a potion without going through a lot of clinical trials.
"If you come across something like this again in the future, please tell me if you have extra. I'm willing to exchange it even if I have to go bankrupt," Mia said to Kaede Sato.
After hearing Kaede Sato's comforting words, Mia immediately felt much better. She solemnly said to Kaede Sato while secretly making up her mind to try her luck at Red Lotus Town's black market more often in the future.
If Kaede Sato knew what Mia was thinking at this moment, he would definitely regret the words he said to comfort Mia just now because his words could cause Mia to be in debt for the rest of her life.
After Kaede Sato decided to help her deal with Els, Mia's impression of Kaede Sato had improved a lot. Therefore, when she described the information about superpowers to Kaede Sato, she did not hide anything and told Kaede Sato everything she knew.
In fact, it was basically impossible to hide the information about superpowers.
This was because most superpowers had a tradition of guiding the younger generation. Of course, rather than saying it was a tradition, it was more like an obligation.
Since ancient times, superpowers were extremely rare among humans. As the strongest profession that once protected the survival of mankind, although superpowers had a high status, correspondingly, the dangers they faced were far greater than other professions.
Because of this, the population of superpowers was already sparse to begin with. Coupled with the continuous wave of sacrifices, many of the powerful superpowers' inheritances were thus severed.
Later, in order to protect humanity and prevent the passing down of the class of superhumans, some powerful superhumans with foresight began to let go of their former enmity and no longer cherished their knowledge, deciding to pass on everything they had learned to those who came after them.
Since those powerful ancestors who risked their lives for the survival of mankind were willing to do so, it was only natural that the successors who benefited from it would be no exception.
Although there was a small number of scum, this tradition was still passed down from generation to generation.
Therefore, even if Mia chose not to tell Kaede Sato now, as long as Kaede Sato found a few more famous superpowers in the future, there was a high chance that he would be able to learn about them.
Currently, Mia was only a beginner-level superpower user. However, because she had a good teacher like Na Zi, she had a solid foundation in the basics of superpowers such as meditation techniques and low-level superpower techniques.
After more than half an hour, Mia had basically told Kaede Sato all the basic knowledge about superpowers. She also gave Kaede Sato a book about superpowers written by Na Zi herself and some instruments that could measure a superpower user's Psychic Energy.
The book written by Na Zi was, of course, a copy and a diluted version. The knowledge it contained was only applicable to beginner-level superpowers.
However, even so, this superpower book was enough for Sato Kaede, a newbie with low talent in superpowers, to use for a long time.
If Kaede Sato did not have any special encounters, the book should be enough for him to use for the rest of his life.
As for the instruments that could measure a superpower user's Psychic Energy, they were blue crystal beads the size of marbles.
According to Mia, these blue crystal beads were called prayer beads. They were made from a special material that could contain Psychic Energy.
The method to measure a superpower user's Psychic Energy was very simple. All the superpower user had to do was to use telekinesis on the prayer beads, and the beads would automatically absorb the Psychic Energy released by the superpower user and light up.
Each prayer bead represented a standard unit of Psychic Energy. Based on the number of shining prayer beads, the user could accurately calculate the current Psychic Energy of a superpower user.
Since Kaede Sato had not undergone any systematic meditation training, using the prayer beads to measure his Psychic Energy could easily measure his current Psychic Energy.
After a series of simple tests, Mia was pleased with Kaede Sato's Psychic Energy. On the other hand, Kaede Sato's face was ashen. According to the test results, Kaede Sato was the weakest superpower user.
Yes, Kaede Sato's Psychic Energy was 10. He had just reached the threshold for a normal person to awaken as a superpower user.
After thousands of years of development, the profession system of superpower users had been perfected. Superpower users could be divided into five levels: Apprentice, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Master.
The difference between the levels of Espers was based on the Esper's Spirit Value. An Apprentice Esper's Spirit Value ranged from 10 to 100 points, while a Beginner Esper's Spirit Value ranged from 100 to 500 points.
An Intermediate's Psychic Energy ranged from 500 to 5,000 points, an Advanced's Psychic Energy ranged from 5,000 to 20,000 points, and a Master's Psychic Energy ranged from 20,000 points and above.
According to Mia, Kaede Sato's Psychic Energy growth was very slow. Even if he meditated without rest, it would take him at least a month to increase his Psychic Energy by 1 point.
In other words, if Kaede Sato did not have any fortuitous encounters in the future, he would remain a Beginner's Psychic Energy for the rest of his life. It was almost impossible for him to become an Intermediate's Psychic Energy.
Mia, on the other hand, had an innate Psychic Energy of 13 points. Although her Psychic Energy was only three points higher than Kaede Sato's, her meditation efficiency was at least seven to eight times higher than Kaede Sato's.
According to her, she was the one who had the potential to break through the first layer of Psychic Energy and become an Intermediate's Psychic Energy.
In the past, Mia had always been the one who was hurt. Now that it was her turn to hurt someone else, she felt very comfortable.
"It doesn't matter. I just need to learn telepathy. That's all I want …"
Kaede Sato's heart felt empty when he found out that his talent was so bad. He tried to comfort himself and make himself feel optimistic. However, he found it hard to do so today.
That was because Kaede Sato realized that even telepathy, a basic Psychic Ability, was not as easy as he thought. The prerequisite for this Psychic Ability was 50 points of Psychic Energy.
Kaede Sato's current Psychic Energy was only 10 points. If what Mia said was true, that he could only increase his Psychic Energy by 1 point after meditating for a month without eating or drinking, he would need at least 40 months to reach the prerequisite for practicing telepathy.
40 months. That was more than three years. However, this was under the condition that Kaede Sato did not eat or drink and meditated as if his life depended on it.
In other words, Kaede Sato would need at least five to six years to increase his Psychic Energy to 50 points.
When he thought about this, Kaede Sato could not be optimistic.
