Currently, Indra is doing all his usual agenda. But he is also working on something new. It's an idea from his sister that she got after thinking hard for 3 days, a Gate detector.


Be it now or even in the next few years, mankind still can't detect the appearance of new Gates with any device. The discovery of new Gates always depends on people.


That's why sometimes there are unexpected outbreaks from undiscovered Gates, just like the case in Jin Ah's school where Orcs come out of a Gate hidden in the storage room.


So Dewi thinks that if Indra can make a device to detect Gates in an area, then there won't be any case of undiscovered Gates. Indra thinks it's a good idea because there are a lot of casualties caused by undiscovered Gates.


"Hmm, how should I make this?"


Indra already has a general concept of how the device will work. He plans to make it work like a radar, but he doesn't know how to create the spell from the runes for that.


"There's no doubt it will need to use magic crystals or monster cores as its energy source. But I'm sure it will need a lot of magic power to cover a large area. It will be a problem if we need to replace the magic crystals too often. Hmm...."


Indra is thinking about the energy cost problem. This isn't a weapon, after all, so he shouldn't focus on power, but efficiency. If it spends too much energy, then the cost will be high and no country will want to use it.


"Ah! I can just make it absorb mana from the surroundings."


Although Earth isn't rich in mana yet, the amount of mana in the atmosphere is still high enough for all awakeners to use. If not, then awakeners won't be able to recover their mana in less than a day.


The mana also starts to affect the environment on Earth anyway. Although the changes aren't visible yet, many things on Earth like soil, rocks, plants, and even animals start to absorb the mana that is released from Gates.


After getting that idea, Indra quickly works on his new research. If this succeeds, then he can reduce the number of accidents caused by undiscovered Gates, which will prevent more victims.


"It doesn't need to be able to detect the Gates' ranks. As long as it can detect the Gates, then it's enough. I also need to make sure it only detects Gates, not awakeners that also release mana from their bodies."


There are some other factors that he needs to be mindful of when creating this device. These factors make it more difficult for him, but he can't just ignore these things because they are important.


Indra works on this research using his clones too because he has many other things to do. His main body's job is still to awaken and upgrade the power of people with great potential all over the world.


Having more powerful Hunters is still much better than having more weapons for now. But people with S-Rank potential are not easy to find even if Jin Woo sends a lot of shadow soldiers all over the world, so Indra doesn't awaken people every day.
