Research in molecular psychology suggests that intelligence has a heritability rate of approximately 50% to 80%.
This means that genes provide the “blueprint” or the foundational potential for an individual’s cognitive capacity.
Genes may set the stage, but it is the environment that determines whether the performance will take place.
Environmental factors are crucial, especially during childhood.
The Yamabuki Family understood this perfectly.
They provided both factors—superior genetics and a competitive environment—to their children.
As a result, Yuuta and Arisu grew into multi-talented geniuses.
They consistently earned perfect scores in their respective schools, capable of unraveling difficult problems that required high-level logic with a speed that intimidated even their own teachers.
However, it was that very genius that caused Yuuta to lose interest in many things and become lazy.
As everyone knows, playing a game using cheats is only fun in the beginning.
After a while, when there are no longer any meaningful obstacles, the game becomes bland and boring.
In the real world, Yuuta had entered that phase.
Without the motivation to pursue anything, life had lost its meaning to him.
Now, a passion he had once forgotten flared up in his heart once more.
Power!
Compared to trivial money, Yuuta thirsted for power!
His intense study session in the library was interrupted by the arrival of a maid.
“Yuuta-sama.
Motosuke-sama told me to give you this.” The maid said as she handed over a sealed envelope.
“Oh?
Has an hour passed already?
Time certainly flies when you’re focused.” Yuuta muttered, raising an eyebrow.
He immediately realized that it was the results of his medical examination from earlier.
“You may go.” Once the maid had moved away and he was alone amidst the silence of the bookshelves, Yuuta opened the envelope.
His eyes scanned quickly, skipping over the less important medical content, until he finally froze at the main result line.
“My Innate Talent is…
Decomposition Magic…?” Yuuta was stunned for a moment.
His body froze in his chair.
Unable to believe what he had just read, he rubbed his eyes several times, hoping it wasn’t just a misread due to fatigue.
However, the writing on the white paper remained unchanged.
“Decomposition Magic…!!!” An overwhelming joy welled up from his chest, almost making him want to scream at the top of his lungs, climb onto the table, and dance to celebrate.
(Is this the gods’ compensation for the lack of a cheat system that is the normal standard for a transmigrator?
Whatever!
Whatever the reason, this is the best news I’ve ever received!) Filled with euphoria, Yuuta quickly covered his wide-grinning mouth with the back of his hand.
He was well aware that his current expression might look terrifying and unsightly if anyone caught him looking like a villain.
(I thought the plot information I possess would be useless since this timeline is 37 years before the main story begins.
It seems that wasn’t true.
I can still utilize this future knowledge for the sake of my own power growth!) (Material Burst!
Here I come, baby!!!) Others in this era might not yet fully understand the terrifying potential of Decomposition Magic, but as a Transmigrator, Yuuta knew it very clearly.
Decomposition Magic was the Innate Talent of the future protagonist of this world, Shiba Tatsuya!
Also known as Dissolution or Disintegration, this magic is a “Devil’s Right.” By identifying the Eidos design or the magic sequence of any object, Yuuta now possessed the ability to decompose that target down to the molecular level—or even convert mass into pure energy.
(Yosh!
My goal is set now.
I will become a Strategic-Class Magician before I enroll in a Magic High School later!) Without a hint of hesitation, Yuuta set an ambitious goal that would shake the future world power structure.
◆━⊰✿✧✿⊱━◆ Yuuta shut himself in the library, truly greedy in absorbing every piece of knowledge before him.
He refused to waste even a single second; he even ordered the servants to bring dinner there and ate quickly between reading stacks of physics and other scientific literature.
His diligence was so intense that he even turned down an invitation to play from Maya and Miya, who had come looking for him.
Although his two cousins were cute little girls, Yuuta’s ambition for power was far greater than any desire to socialize.
It wasn’t until 9:50 PM that Yuuta finally left the library and stepped back into his room.
It wasn’t that Yuuta didn’t want to study longer, but unfortunately, he had to face the reality that his current body was merely that of a nine-year-old.
Overwhelming sleepiness began to attack his nervous system, forcing him to surrender to those biological limitations.
After cleaning himself with a warm bath, he immediately lay down on the soft mattress.
The design of his room followed a very plain traditional Japanese architecture, with tatami floors and minimalist shoji doors without much decoration.
However, Yuuta didn’t mind that in the slightest.
To him, a room was nothing more than a place to close his eyes and recover his energy.
However, just as he was about to fall asleep, a thought crossed his mind.
“Hm?
Something is wrong!” Yuuta jolted awake from his bed.
He took the medical results sheet he had read earlier and examined it once more with greater scrutiny.
He realized that in his previous euphoria, he had overlooked something very important regarding his comparison to the original protagonist.
“Ah!
I don’t have Regrowth!” “Haiz…
Whatever.
Although it’s a bit of a shame I don’t have Regrowth as an Innate Talent like Tatsuya, it’s not a big problem.” “Besides, the side effects of Regrowth are too severe.
Only an emotionless person like Tatsuya could endure the pain of repeated death experiences without so much as changing his facial expression.” In the future, Tatsuya was blessed with two Innate Talents simultaneously: Decomposition Magic and Regrowth.
Previously, Yuuta had assumed that since he had Decomposition Magic, he would automatically have the complete package.
It turned out he was dead wrong.
What is Regrowth?
Regrowth is an ability that works by copying the Eidos information of an object from the past—up to a time limit of 24 hours—and overwriting it onto the current Eidos of the object.
As a result, an object or body part that has been shattered to pieces will return to a whole condition in the blink of an eye, as if the damage or wound never occurred.
In short, it is an infinite revival coin in a game, or to use another reference, it is equivalent to the Uchiha Clan’s forbidden technique: Izanagi.
Without Regrowth, it meant Yuuta lacked the same “immortality” safety net, which meant he would have to be far more careful in every future battle.
“That’s not all, I’m missing the most important element to use Material Burst.
Elemental Sight…” Yuuta scratched his head with an expression of visible frustration.
It turned out that his dream of mastering Material Burst wouldn’t be as easy as he had imagined.
Possessing Decomposition Magic alone wasn’t enough; he needed the “eyes” to see targets at a much deeper level.
Elemental Sight is a very rare Perception-Type Magic.
This power allows its user to connect directly to the Information Dimension at the highest possible level.
“Theoretically, if a Magician increases their ability to perceive information to the extreme, they should be able to obtain Elemental Sight.
However, as far as the original story goes, only Tatsuya and Kudou Minoru were known to possess this ability purely…” Yuuta murmured softly, his voice nearly drowning in the silence of the room.
“Yawn…
Damn, I’m so sleepy…” Yuuta let out a wide yawn, his eyes already watering from unbearable exhaustion.
However, in the midst of his fading consciousness, a spark of optimism appeared.
“There’s no need to rush.
Since Minoru managed to master Elemental Sight, why can’t I?
After all, the test results earlier showed that my affinity for Perception-Type magic is just as high as other magic classifications.
The potential is there; I just need to find a way to awaken it.” Perhaps because too much energy had been drained from processing heavy information in the library earlier, Yuuta’s brain had truly reached its limit.
Pushing aside problems that still felt far in the future, he pulled up his blanket, lay back down on the soft mattress, and within seconds, he fell into a deep sleep.
