Chapter 611
“Why are you crying? I am fine, see?” Dio said as he saw Wanda crying on his chest. Dio almost couldn’t control himself when he saw how adorable Wanda was. “Hey, you are turning me on right now!” Dio said as he smirked at Wanda.
Wanda blushed and let Dio go before punching his chest lightly. They looked at Pietro as he was beside them all the time and noticed that Pietro was holding his mouth as if he was about to puke! But still, both Wanda and Pietro were still curious about what just happened.
“What just happened, Dio! Tell us about your new power! When I cut you down earlier, I didn’t feel anything at all. It was like I am cutting through the air!” Wanda said curiously, no longer blushing. Pietro, too, was eager to find out about Dio’s power as he thought that it was an extremely unusual power.
Dio sighed as he knew that he couldn’t lie to Wanda. He knew that there was no need for him to hide his ability. After all, [King Crimson] was notoriously hard to counter. Even if someone could counter [King Crimson]’s power, he still had another powerful Stand that would work just fine!
“I deleted the future when the blade cut my hand. Did you feel something was missing when you cut my hand earlier?” Dio asked Wanda. After hearing Dio’s answer, Wanda tried to remember the sensation when she swung the blade earlier and felt this eerie sensation.
“Deleting the future itself? How could you even do that?” Wanda said surprisedly.
“I recently awakened this ability, so I haven’t really grasped the extent of this ability just yet, and so, that is when I asked for your help to test it out. Thanks to you, I more or less figure out the limit and cost of this ability!” Dio said with a smile on his face. Wanda immediately nodded her head as she understood what Dio was saying, while Pietro was frowning after hearing Dio’s explanation.
It was safe to say that Dio’s ability was able to manipulate the time itself better than Pietro’s speed-based ability, meaning that he would never be able to catch up to Dio before he could develop move faster than time itself!
So, for the next hour, Wanda and Pietro cooperated with Dio to check the extent of Dio’s new ability. Dio stopped when his Hamon Energy almost reached rock bottom. He finally understood that [King Crimson] consumed even more Hamon Energy than [The World] itself before Dio evolved it as it had two abilities on top of the cost for summoning the Stand! Epitaph consumed 10.000 Hamon Energy per second, but it was only for seeing the future!
However, Time Erasure, which was the truly impactful one, had an absurd cost at 10.000 Hamon Energy per 0.1 Second of time erased. Although [The World]’s Time Stop consumed the same Hamon Energy, Time Erasure had to be activated after Epitaph was activated, meaning the cost was doubled! On top of that, [King Crimson]’s sustainability is at E, meaning it would consume 16 Hamon Energy per second once summoned!
(Sustainability: A – 1 Hamon Energy per second, B – 2 Hamon Energy per second, C – 4 Hamon Energy per second, D – 8 Hamon Energy per second, E – 16 Hamon Energy per second. The Hamon Energy cost would increase according to the action taken. This value is only the minimum cost for stand-by mode.)
Looking at this number, [The World] was far more efficient in terms of Hamon consumption. That was why Dio felt relieved that [The World] was the first powerful Stand that he got from the {Gacha}. He even thought that it was indeed his destiny to be given that Stand in the first place. After all, his name was Dio Brando!
But looking at King Crimson’s Hamon consumption, this was the first time Dio thought that having 5 million Hamon Energy wasn’t enough!
Then again, he didn’t have any plan on consuming a large amount of Hamon Beads that he got from the {Gacha}. He wanted to give most of them to Galaxy first as she had the Stand [Dimensional Wanderer] that was equivalent to the Space Gem!
He could go to wherever he wanted with Galaxy’s ability. Be it going to the other end of Earth, crossing the galaxies, visiting another dimension. With Galaxy, he could do it all!
Clearly, Galaxy’s ability was out of this world.
But as for the little snail, Dio didn’t feel the need to upgrade its stand power anymore.
After concluding the test and explaining his new power to Pietro and Wanda, Dio let them go while he immediately checked the surveillance data to watch it at a slower speed on the computer. He wanted to know what had actually happened during the period of his Time Erasure. Did the camera record it, or did it just disappear without any trace?
It was not known what happened to anyone else during the span of Time Erasure, so Dio was extremely curious about it. He wondered whether everyone else’s time resumed as it was supposed to or Time Erasure affected their daily life to some extent.
For example, would a person be still eating during the Time Erasure moment, or was their time stopped for a moment before it continued like normal? He needed to know all this as he wanted to know if it would disturb the natural balance of things.
Unless he knew for sure, there was always a chance that his ability would bring another disaster in the future!
