Steven looked at the book and said,"Why don't you open it?"
Jun hesitated,"Now? Right here?"
Frank answered firmly,"Yes, Now, And right here."
The room fell into a brief silence.Jun slowly lifted the book into his hands. On the cover, the MIMIC ABILITY symbol began to glow in dark red. As soon as he opened the pages, within a second the entire book caught fire.
The flames consumed it, but this fire was unlike any ordinary one. It burned… without heat. And in the very next moment, the book vanished. Not even ashes remained.
Jun's body suddenly began to glow with heat. His breathing grew heavy, his heartbeat raced, and his body temperature rose abnormally.Steven stepped forward,"Jun..."
But Frank raised his hand, signaling him to stop,"Wait."
For a few seconds, the air around Jun seemed to distort. Then, slowly, everything returned to normal. Jun opened his eyes.
In front of him, a translucent virtual card appeared in the air.
It read:-
Owner: Jun
Status: FFF
Points: 00900/10,000
Power Level: Beginner
Receiver: MIMIC ABILITY Successfully Received
As Jun thought about it, the card faded, and another projection appeared a virtual book interface. Clear and sharp. The characters written on it were perfectly readable to him.
Frank asked softly,"What happened, Jun? Did you successfully receive the book?"
Jun nodded,"Yes, uncle… I received it."
Steven let out a quiet breath.Frank spoke in a serious tone,"Listen carefully. In this world, the Mimic power is the most stable and powerful system."
"When you absorb alien energy and use it at 30–40% efficiency, if you dedicate time to practicing with this book, you can raise that efficiency from 30–40% all the way to 96%."
Jun listened silently. Frank added,"But remember one thing no one must ever know that you possess this ability."
The mood in the room grew heavy. There was a risk associated with this power because everyone in the world wanted such powers.
Jun nodded and then looked at Steven,"Mom… how is Dad?"
Steven's expression softened,"She's stable and still the same."
Jun exhaled lightly. Frank said calmly,"Don't worry. Go and get ready. I'll send you the coordinates shortly set them and teleport."
Jun nodded. The virtual interface slowly faded away. He looked at both of them one last time. Then, without a word, he left the lab.At home, Jun told everyone,"Prepare yourselves. We'll be departing soon."
