Kiyo Jian activated multiple observation layers.
Physical.
Magical.
Causal.
Structural.
All targeted toward Ocean Counter.
The results returned.
But none matched each other.
Not failure.
Not error.
Just incomplete alignment.
Kiyo Jian whispered:
"…Every layer sees him differently."
He clenched his fist slightly.
"And none of them agree long enough to form a complete picture."
He looked at Ocean in the distance.
The boy was eating lunch.
Completely ordinary.
Kiyo Jian lowered his gaze.
"…It's like he is always slightly ahead of being observed."
