Harry had really no idea about the extent of shit that he had gotten himself into. His mishap had turned the whole mood of the tribe very somber. No one was making eye contact with him, and they were treating him as if he didn't exist. Suddenly, his good training results didn't matter, and he had become a social pariah. Even the children who brought him to the tribe this morning had started maintaining distance from him, on their parents' order.
Being the recluse of the tribe didn't matter to Harry that much. He was fine with it. What he found more displeasing was the privileges that were taken away from him. The bow that Joron gave him a week ago was taken away from him. It was really good bow, better than the mass-produced ones that hunters use. Not to mention, Karina had told him that his hunter training had been cancelled as well.
With that, his training with weapons had also come to an abrupt end. During the hunting training, Karina had covered the basics of Archery. But they had not even started with spear training.
And most importantly, Harry was not allowed to practice his archery or spear-throwing. For some reason, the people of the tribe were sure that nothing good would happen if he were to continue his training by himself. According to them, it would be an insult to the teaching of Lord Leh.
The only sane decision that the people of the tribe were able to come up with was about the next Lunar cycle. He would only be allowed to access the weapons when the new lunar cycle started. It is then that he would finally start his Atonement Hunt...
That night, after having dinner, Harry straightaway came to the top of the rock. There was a tent erected for him, where he would sleep alone for the days to come. But this turned into Harry's favour as he had a lot of experimenting to do.
Alright, let's see, He thought as he brought up the skeleton input data. In order to start working and analyzing part, he had termed the organ by his heart as Vita Heart. The name made sense as it was essentially pumping Vita through his body.
While he had termed the organ behind his belly button as Vita Core.
His data shows that Vita Hearts pumps Vita throughout his body, throughout the day. And from what he had computed by scanning most Vita wielders of his tribe, the amount of Vita he had in his body was almost half of what an adult possesses. It was very significant, as he had heard that the amount of Vitamins in one's body increases as one grows older. Which is why he could only imagine the extent of the growth of his Vita.
Jenny, He ordered mentally, and his AI came online. Start a computing process. Access the data of observed energy levels of Vita Wielders. Try to compute a new unit for the measurement of this new energy.

[Starting Computing Process….]
It took a few minutes for Jenny to work. But it was able to pull up some data soon…

Alright, He thought, let's start with the basics.
Harry wanted to understand how Vita works. What was the connection between the two sources of Vita in his body? And most importantly, he wanted to understand how Vita was entering his body.
He had heard the Vita was an energy that was in the air. And Vita Wielders absorb the energy through the air. So, he wanted to understand whether he was absorbing the energy through his lungs, or there was a particular organ in his body that was responsible for absorbing the Vita.
That night, he reviewed the data that he had collected so far. Compared the the input from the skeleton, from a few X-rays of his eyes and his body, Harry was able to come up with a basic understanding of the working of his body.
This new body was designed in such a way that it could absorb the Vita in the air from small pores in his skin. Although most of the pores in his body were clogged, only a few of the pores were open. And it is through these open pores was his body was absorbing Vita from the air.
A part of the system in his brain was active during the cleansing process. Because of which, it was able to record a glimpse of what happened in the process. According to the data, the pain that he felt was because his Vita Heart started pumping Vita through his body. That in process started pushing some bio-material through his specialized Vita Veins in his body.
Vita Veins were the specialized nerves whose job was only to supply Vita throughout the body. How they were clogged, he doesn't know that. But through his records, he was able to ascertain that the cleansing process is nothing but his body excreting out the clogging of Vita Veins through the tiny pores through which his body absorbs Vita.
This is why he felt as if his veins were about to burst when he woke up.
As far as his Vita containing organs were concerned, they both shared a nerve pathway through which they could both pump mana throughout his body. He could not find any sort of special function that these organs individually played. But he had some idea of how he could utilise these two organs in his body.
Space-ships also used to possess two sets of engines. One set is specifically designed for space travel. While one was designed for planetary travel, Harry figured that he might be able to utilise the same logic with two of his Vita organs as well.
The only thing that he needed to do now was to get a good grasp on his Vita, try to find the connection from which he could command Vita inside his body. He knew that it was possible, as he had seen people do it in the past. And from what he had seen, no one from the tribe was pumping Vita through their body at every passing hour, like he was doing. So he needed to get in control of his Vita as soon as he could.
And then there was the Lord Scripture part as well, another thing that has been bugging him for quite some time.
Everyone in this world possesses a blue colour screen. From what Harry had seen so far. But he was yet to get one for himself. He didn't know whether this was because he didn't belong to this world, or whether it was not his time yet. But he was afraid. If someone asked him about his Lord Scriptures one day, and he was not able to show anything. What he would do then was beyond him.
Also, he wanted to understand the principle behind the blue screen. What is its use, and why is it there in the first place…
