After almost dying and getting unexpected boon , Azaroth headed home to find James waiting for him . after taking a shower and a change of clothes , they head out to the capital.
The neighbourhood Azaroth lived in was just outside the barrier that surrounded the capital , tho cities official boundaries were known to be the barrier , the settlements always tend to extend a few kilometers beyond the barrier
on the records Azaroth's home or other building , shops and residencies outside the barriers didn't exist/ were illegaly constructed even tho they were purchased and were tax liable by the goverment .
The rates and prices were 10 times lower
ue to the buildings having no insurances and residents were expected to fend for themselves , the region was still stablised despite the lax law enforcement , after all
In a world where everyone awakens an innate without exception .
A petty gangster would be one bullshit innate away from getting obliterated out of existence , and for strong innate users could use tyranny because it gave goverment offiials justified excuse to 'recruit' them into their schemes
Azaroth and James passed through the main gates , the Process was faster thanks to James being part of the law enforcement
so he was recognised .
They walked until they reached a shop few blocks away from barrier
Shop was modest in size with hardware items stored in the glass panels for the outside view indicating that they sold multiple things , probably to make enough to their ends
James walked up to a middle aged dude in cashier outfit , asking for a standard soul reader
The cashier looked at Azaroth , nodded and pulled out a small transparent crystal , size of a pinky and gave it to Azaroth while James paid
After the purchase , they left the shop ,heading was a open public park area where they sat on a bench
James said , " press the crystal on your wrist Left or right your choice , between the two bones which i am currently forgetting the name of "
Azaroth did as James said
Small tentacle like wires emerged from the crystal and dug onto Azaroth's wrist before merging with it leaving a mark where the crystal was placed, the process was painless
"Now , press the mark while thinking about an reading medium , it could be anything from a paper to a tablet "
Azaroth focused and a book appeared in his right hand in which the crystal had embedded itself ,
"a Book , i expected a phone considering how much you use one , but then again it a random element is involved in manifestation
Now two things to take note of
1st - don't show your status to anyone else
And
2nd - flip to the next page if you need an rough explaination of something while thinking about that thing
And don't worry about the locked stuff , most of them don't become available until stage of enlightment "
Azaroth closed his eyes before opening them again
Then opened the book which didn't have any color or texture except black
"oh and outer appearance of the soul reader reflects your soul", James interrupted once again
Inside the book there was nothing written
until text began to appear
