Clashing Values
The height of his current level of Intelligence had reached a ridiculous height. This was the first time Ves put his efforts into absorbing as much knowledge as possible, and his reading and comprehension speed astounded him. He browsed through the pages of his textbooks with such speed that he already flipped to the next page while he read the current one.
Before he ingested the Transcendence Pill, he was like a slow transport. After he took it, he turned into a blazing fast corvette.
"The difference is like night and day. There's no comparison!"
The boost in Intelligence hadn't made him any wiser, but it had certainly transformed his several cognitive functions that manifested fully when it came to learning new knowledge. His brains basically turned into an organic processor that could rapidly memorize, process and understand anything he came across.
Ves became increasingly proficient in Computer Science, to the point where he had long gone past the Incompetent tier.
