"Fucking finally!" Y/n exclaimed, her eyes fixed on the gleaming knowledge capsule that now resided in her inventory. A smile danced upon her lips as she turned to Jarvis. "Couldn't have done it without you, Jarvis."

Jarvis, ever humble, responded with a touch of gratitude in his voice. "I am merely executing the tasks you programmed me to perform. But I do appreciate the kind words, considering you are, technically speaking, my ingenious creator."

Y/n chuckled, a twinkle of intelligence glimmering in her eyes. "Ah, the beauty of parenthood. Creating life and watching it exceed expectations." She paused for a moment, then continued, "Shall we activate the knowledge capsule now, Jarvis?"

With a swift gesture, Y/n raised her hand, adorned with the newly crafted bionic contact lens, summoning the knowledge capsule. Yet, her expression shifted from excitement to suspicion as the capsule emitted a vibrant, pulsating red glow infused with dendro powers, reminiscent of the divine knowledge capsules often depicted in Sumeru's archon quests.

Y/n's brows furrowed with a mixture of intrigue and caution, a playful yet thoughtful glimmer in her eyes. "Hold on a second... aren't these capsules known to be contaminated with forbidden knowledge?"

Jarvis nodded, his virtual presence projecting understanding. "Indeed, according to the Sumeru archon quests, these capsules are said to contain what is known as the 'wisdom of the gods.'"

Y/n let out a low whistle, a hint of both admiration and apprehension in her voice. "Well, well, well... aren't we treading dangerous waters here? Consuming forbidden knowledge sounds thrilling, but also a tad nerve-wracking, wouldn't you agree?"

She contemplated the situation for a moment, her thoughts racing with the weight of the decision before her. After a beat, she grinned mischievously. "But hey, who am I to shy away from a little risk? Immunity to forbidden knowledge, remember? Let's see what this divine knowledge capsule has in store for me."

"Exercise caution, please," Jarvis intoned, the virtual essence of his voice resonating with a sagacious note of concern.

A smirk danced on Y/n's lips as she brushed off his warning with a breezy, "Yeah, got it," and then, with the air of someone who'd done this many times before, she activated the capsule.

In a heartbeat, a tidal wave of knowledge crashed into her mind, a sensory overload that was equal parts exhilarating and overwhelming.
