Rudy did not waste his time in 1989 and just enjoyed his life with Elena, Rebecca, and Jessica, but he also learned various ways to use his powers.
It wasn’t a new discovery of his power but a new invention based on his other abilities. Such as, he used his restoration power and fast-forward power to control the action of the objects.
He could touch a plant and make it a tree or touch a tree and make it a plan. Sure, he could do that before, but now he had learned to control it precisely and mastered it perfectly.
Not only that, but he could touch a living being and alter their age using his powers. But the best of all was his ability to stop something.
He could literally stop something from aging and prevent it from ever dying.
He also learned to use his sense and vision abilities more precisely. Back then, he had to scan the entire area when he wanted to look for something. But now, he could scan the things he wanted to.
It was similar to marking, but here it was vision marking where he marked the things he was looking for, and his vision abilities only searched for the specific thing. The same with his senses.
If he wanted to hear footsteps from only one direction and not all the other noises, he would cancel everything else except the footsteps sound of the specific direction.
If he wanted to hear the voices of specific frequencies, he could set his senses to that to capture them. Of course, all these new combinations of his abilities didn’t seem groundbreaking, but they were more useful than anyone could have imagined.
His most used powers were teleportation, flying, and his vision and sense abilities. And he had evolved them all in one way or another.
Rudy couldn’t teleport to the places he had never been before, but he created a new ability called molecular teleportation that allowed him to teleport to the places he could see ‘live’ with his eyes. f??????no?eƖ.co?
However, that process was extremely tedious and time-consuming. Thus, Rudy thought of a new idea that could erase that problem entirely.
It took so long to use molecular teleportation because Rudy had to break his body to the molecular level and then slowly send his cells to where he wanted. But the simple and the easiest solution to that was to combine that ability with another.
Rudy could shrink his body at will, so if he shrunk his body to the molecular level and teleported. And then enlarged his body. He could do molecular teleportation within a second. But Rudy hadn’t tested this new combination yet.
As for his flight ability, Rudy had already achieved top speed by turning his cells into the lightning matter and then traveling with the speed of lightning, but he had yet to achieve to travel with the speed of light.
Rudy wanted to do that, but the only place he could test was space. And he knew a little about space and time, in which some theories suggested that traveling at the speed of light or faster can cause time dilation.
Of course, that wasn’t his field of expertise, so his knowledge was limited. But he didn’t want to take any risk when he was in the 1989 timeline with Elena, Rebecca, and Jessica— who needed him more than anything.
His vision and senses abilities had infinite combinations, so there was no limit to how much they could evolve. Still, Rudy had found a few combinations that were useful on a daily basis.
Just like his ability to convert his memory or vision into data and feed them on television or any electronic device with a screen, he could do the same with his senses.
He could leave a fragment of his senses somewhere and later check the recording of his senses. But the ability required heavy processing and no interference.
Suppose he had left the fragment of his senses somewhere, and another ability was used near the area, the fragment would collapse and stop recording, but it would still save the recorded data up to that moment.
One night, Rudy returned to his house after his night session with Elena, he sensed traces of something strange that didn’t belong near the house. He inspected the house but didn’t find anything, so he followed the trails that led him to the forest behind his house.
The traces were very faint, and it could have been anyone.
Rudy’s guess was that some big insect, such as a spider or bee, or small animals like rats, squirrels, or even a rabbit, or a bird could have come to the house and left for the forest.
If Rudy knew what exactly he was looking for, he could trace it with his new vision ability combination, but now he had to scan the entire forest. Or perhaps, there was no need since he sensed something nearby.
RUSTLE~ RUSTLE~!
With a sharp rustling sound, a horned creature appeared from the bushes in front of Rudy.
“…!”
It stared at Rudy for a few seconds before rushing to him and hugging him.
“Li…lim?” Rudy muttered while looking at her.
“Daddy~ I finally found you!” she said.
?r???eb??vel.c??
“Wait… what are you doing here?” Rudy asked with a confused look on his face.
“You brought me here.”
Rudy crouched down in front of Lilim to match her height and looked into her eyes before smiling at him.
“Since how long have you been here?”
“I don’t know… but you asked me to hide…”
“I did?”
Lilim nodded, saying, “You said we are playing hide and seek.”
‘What’s going on? Why is Lilim here? And this place is the exact spot where Lilim had asked me to meet that other night. And most importantly, why is she calling me daddy?
I thought it was just a roleplay thing she was into. Wait, I think I know why she thinks I am her father. I remember she told me that her father was a human, and since I am a human… kind of, she thinks I am her father… right?’
