After stepping out of the Orange Panthers store, Leo resumed his practice with the [Sevenfold Revelation Codex], continuing what had become a daily ritual of quietly funneling mana behind his eyes and walking the length of Twin Fang City without pause.
And yet, like every day prior to this one, he saw nothing of note.
He uncovered no hidden secrets of the universe, perceived no swirling aura's of emotion, and failed to pick up even the faintest hint of the revelations that the codex promised to lay bare.
His mind, tempered by [Monarch's Indifference], remained steady as always, but even so, there was a limit to how much he could pretend that this wasn't getting under his skin.
Because no matter how much mana he circulated or how long he let it settle behind his optic nerves, no matter how many faces he studied, footsteps he tracked, or interactions he witnessed, the results remained the same.
As in the end, he saw nothing.
