"Knowledge won't be distorted or wrong. But if you really manage to create a skill during Brainstorm, the skill will take on a mischievous mutation that reflects your personality. That's the side effect. Can you accept that?"
"Will it change the skill's function or direction?"
"No. As long as your reasoning is sound, the essence and purpose of the skill will remain the same."
"How severe is the mutation?"
"Cinders used it once. She cursed me out for half a year."
After careful thought, Rita gave her answer. "I accept."
Mutation or not, if the skill worked, it was worth it. Even if it turned out unsatisfactory, the knowledge itself wouldn't vanish.
Brainstorm didn't directly grant a skill—it only accelerated her thinking. Whatever emerged in the end still depended on her own thought process. She could always revisit the knowledge, reorganize and refine it, maybe even develop another skill through further magical study.
