Absolute Dweller

"I can leave the Absolute Dweller’s domain."

I had already suspected it when I first created the Avatar, but confirming it for myself like this was a different experience entirely.

‘I really can step outside.’

When I turned around, I could faintly sense the existence of a transparent barrier.

‘Faintly?’

It was only then that I realized something important.

‘The connection to my main body has weakened.’

Before stepping outside the domain, my consciousness had been fully shared with my main body.

Even though the Avatar was a separate form, I had still been receiving real-time visuals from my Absolute Dweller’s Eye.

There had been no need for spoken words—communication had been seamless. But now, I couldn’t feel the presence of my main body’s consciousness at all.

‘Inventory.’

Ding!

It was empty, but at least it was functioning properly.

‘Marketplace.’

Same result.

It looked slightly different from what the administrator—that is, my main body—would see, but it was identical to what an ordinary citizen would see.

It seemed that I was subject to the same buffs as regular citizens.@@novelbin@@

‘Then how does something like the Power of Trust apply?’

Even when looking at my own status window through my main body’s Absolute Dweller’s Eye, there had been no indicators for trust or loyalty.

‘Loyalty aside, I wouldn’t even be confident about a trust level of 100.’

Believing in oneself with absolute certainty wasn’t exactly easy.

And pledging undying loyalty to myself? That was nonsense.
