"I guess I owe him a thank you. Might go find him back in the Otherworld after this…"
White mused before turning to the system.
"Can you explain to me what exactly this Orb is? What is this energy coursing through me?"
"I know lightning... I've fought Gustav and know what it means to be hit by lightning, but this... this doesn't give the same feeling as lightning at all."
[That's because it isn't.]
The system panel flashed.
[This is Aether Pulse.]
"Aether Pulse?"
[Think of neurons.]
[In ordinary lifeforms, which I'll call mortals, neurons are biological messengers.]
It said, continuing,
[There are these tiny pathways carrying thought, sensation, reaction, memory, and control through weak electrical impulses.]
[They determine how fast you perceive, how quickly you react, how sharply you process, and how precisely you command the body.]
[This is the Neuron Principle.]
It completed, and White nodded in understanding.
"Neurons. I understand that."
