Chapter 42: Limits!! Are there any?

......

'Hmm, now for the most important test...the target I will set this time will be vastly different than the last.'

He thought as he picked another card with a silver of expectation within his eyes, "It's time to test the limits of my Hatsu... If It has any in the first place."

Suddenly time seems to slow down as he concentrated a large amount of aura on his right hand creating a dark bubble around it, a bubble of pure destruction.

Then he narrowed his eyes as he used his control domain to stabilize the card in the air in front of him after he activated a perfect two meters amplification domain.

Then he attacked activating his Hatsu only when his punch was less than an inch from the card.

'-Violet Rose- M=0, T=5'

Purple lines appeared all around his arms as his punch went through the card, and with it, all the aura he concentrated on his hand disappeared as the card shined purple.

He didn't stop there as he used 'deadly snake' making his hands sharp.

He started slashing through the card continuously while using his domain control to control himself allowing him to be much faster surpassing the hyper-sonic level of speed.

To an outsider, it will look like a card hovering in the air that turned completely purple instantly as its radiance continued to grow until it became a shining beacon in the grassy lands.

Time seems to move normally again as he stopped and with it, the purple lines on his arms disappeared.

A wide smile slowly surfaced on his face, a smile that soon turned to a loud laugher, "HAHAHAHAH...HAHAHAHAHA....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...".

He brought his right hand to his face hiding most of it leaving solely his deep pitch black right eye reflecting the card that still hovered in front of him though what he wanted to hide is the devilish smile that can bring chills to anyone seeing it, a smile that gives an Illusion as if the whole world is under his control.

'It worked, my ability can target anything, even concepts, that's what I intended but seeing it work brought a whole new level of satisfaction to me.

So this confirms my plans being viable, my chances are possibly much higher than predicted.'

"Hehe I'm soo Cool...", "Oni-Chan is sooo cool!!" Suddenly Alluka who is running back shouted hearing his words of happiness and satisfaction.

"I know, right, shoulder ride?" Offered Yasuo as a casual smile returned to his pale face.

"Yup" as soon as she said that, she flew to his shoulder, "Let's visit a nearby city, we can have lunch there." Then he headed in a certain direction passing large distances with each step, or more like a jump enjoying the scenery along the way.

This test was vital to his plans because while he created his enhancement ability with a certain purpose in mind, he still didn't know if it will work as intended.

So he decided to test it on a large-scale target similar to the intended target, but how can he test it on such a thing?

The answer he found is Greed Island, It's the closest thing available and safe to research on he can find, he first tested whether he can target an individual card, then he saw if he can erase it.

The last test and the most important one is to see whether he can target Greed Island, that's right, the target he set is Greed Island.

According to a theory of his, Greed Island is similar to a Hatsu with most of the things in it being a part of it, the card being one of them.

So if he targets Greed Island through the card with his Hatsu, and considering his Hatsu spreads damage equally then he can erase Greed Island completely if he can deliver enough damage fulfilling the requirement.

That's why he set the multiplier to zero, he knows that if he can't deliver enough damage to fulfill the requirement, the damage will be returned to him so he decided to first see how much he can deal in five seconds.

But what he found the most interesting is that he isn't far off from being able to satisfy the requirement for the multiplier 4 and he can already fulfill the requirement for the multiplier 3.

Of course, something as big as Greed Island will need a much higher multiplier to erase it in one violet rose activation and even if he can fulfill the multiplier 4, it still won't be anywhere near enough to erase the whole Game.

He'll need to repeatedly fulfill the requirement for a long time unless he used the sub-ability of his enhancement ability.

This gave him the confirmation he needed to go ahead with his main plans, after all, the backup plans he planned aren't as effective and are too risky.

He can of course test the ability on other concepts such as time and space since they're basically everywhere but he found a hurdle here.

He needs a conduit to target concepts just like he used the card as a conduit to target the whole Island but time and space have none.

They're illusionary concepts so how can he target them if he so needed? Well, he happened to have an ability that will thoroughly break this hurdle.

His control domain, as long as he can clearly sense those concepts then he can target them ignoring that annoying requirement.

He of course knows he will be able to sense those concepts, he created his ability with this in mind.

The stronger he is, the stronger his sense will become and with his amplification domain, perhaps, sensing such concepts isn't so far off.

......

The badlands is A series of hills composed of eroded sedimentary rocks in dry terrain with minimal vegetation and inhabited by many monsters.

Yasuo and Alluka could be seen sitting on the top of a specific hill with Alluka eating an Ice cream and Yasuo just stroking his earring while contemplating a few things.

After Yasuo finished his test, he headed to the nearest city which is Rubicuta Another starting town in the game because of its short distance from the island's main entrance.

He and Alluka had lunch there using the money of the player he took everything from. Among the unrestricted cards he took is a detailed map of the Island. He memorized the map then headed there.

"Alluka, stay here for now, if you want anything just teleport to me" She nodded as he jumped down until he hovered 15 meters above the ground.

He then flew at that level with the two black daggers flying around him. Once his domain came in contact with anything, the daggers attack at a terrifying speed leaving only cards that flew to him taking place in the free slots of his binder.

The badlands is inhabited by a number of monsters, once you defeat them, you get a card that you can sell for money that can be used in Greed Island since normally jenny isn't useable here.

The money here is in the form of jenny cards and there are banks where you can leave money.

He has been in the badlands for about a week basically eliminating every monster he finds then he waits until the monsters respawn and do the same again then he sells them getting jenny cards he needs.

He targeted every monster's weakness from Cyclops to Melanin Lizards to wolf packs, of course, there are monsters that need specific actions to get their cards such as bubble horses that need to be grabbed.

There are also radio rats that one just needs to look at them for them to faint turning into cards though they can manipulate objects using Nen from far away making it hard for beginners to get them.

He continued collecting cards until he found something interesting, something that brought a smile to his face, Something that looks like a small black round fluffy puffball with a tail and skinny legs. fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖

This is a Hyper Puffball, a small monster of Greed Island, Its attacks are extremely weak but the creature has a durable body though its most notable ability is bouncing at a hypersonic speed making it almost impossible to catch if not for its bouncing trajectory having a pattern allowing players to anticipate its moves.

He hovered in the air allowing it to bounce around without using his control domain to control it, he could clearly feel its every movement with his domain as if it's moving slowly and he can keep up with it to a certain extent with his eyes.

Suddenly the Hyper Puffball froze in the air then flew to him, he touched making it turned into a card.

'Netero's attack speed should easily be above the hypersonic and so is mine, I'm pretty sure my general speed surpassed his and possibly my attacking speed as well considering he needs to do a praying motion before attacking.

However, he does have the range advantage if I don't consider my control domain as a factor, for now, I will take advantage of Greed Island to increase my brain Input capacity.'
