Sebastian woke up after a long refreshing night's sleep.
Of the different divisions of the anatomy departnt, the residential quarter was the only place that Miniman didn't take Sebastian to. This was because this was where all the anatomists slept.
Taking him here was akin to violating the privacy of the other anatomists. Miniman didn't even need to explain what it stood for, the residential quarter was also self-explanatory, it was simply the sleeping quarters of the anatomists.
After the tour, Sebastian had to find his way here himself.
On getting here, it did not take much ti for him to blend in with his colleagues. Of course, his colleagues ant the other junior anatomists.
According to their ranks in the departnt, the residential quarters were segnted to accommodate them all. Once Sebastian went in with his colleagues, a lot of other common knowledge about the departnt was explained to him.
He heaved a sigh of relief since he didn't see any weird personality that tried to make things hard for him or even oppose him from the onset.
All the junior anatomists were friendly. Of course, they had different personalities and habits but their love for dissection made them all friendly.
In such a harmonious environnt, Sebastian blended in easily.
Just before the green glow of the Green Mist Sea set to declare an end to the day, a group of clownfish tailors arrived before him. They took his asurent to Sebastian's shock, and this was for his work lab coat.
Now, this morning, on waking up, Sebastian was thrilled to find a huge blue lab coat hanging in a corner of his room. Every junior anatomist had a room exclusive for them.
Sebastian without hesitation swam closer to examine the lab coat. He looked carefully at it, examined its design, and saw that it was specially made to accommodate a shark physique.
The only problem was that it was far smaller than his body.
"Did these guys ss up my asurent?"
While he already thought of grumbling, this was when he noticed a small box hidden inside the lab coat. Of course, this was after he activated his ga electroreceptors to scan his surroundings.
He already knew that activating his electroreceptors rampantly subtly affected his targets unless he actively manipulated it to lower the electromagnetic waves that were emitted.
To not affect his colleagues, he refrained from activating this vital skill too much but at this mont there was no one around which was why he used it.
"A box, inside my lab coat? What is its use?"
[You have activated Inherited Magic Ability: Telekinesis.]
[You have activated skill: Telekinesis Pull.]
While he soliloquized, he already took hold of the box, and this ti he took hold of it with his ntal energy. After practicing with it for days, he succeeded in creating another skill for this inherited ability.
Sebastian already tried creating more sophisticated and deadly skills with this ability but it simply didn't work. After a lot of experints, he already discovered what was wrong.
Through the encounter with Carcarot Gorgoneon, his ntal energy increased exponentially, and was now able to power this ability extensively.
But telekinesis was more than just brutish ntal power. To really master this ability and turn it into another trump card of his, he needed to patiently train and master his control over his ntal energy.
This was just like how to be a good footballer; a football player needed to patiently train for years and master his control over the ball.
This was what Sebastian also needed to master. Once he mastered control of his ntal energy, telekinesis would co to him like a fish to water.
Once the telekinesis pull brought the box close enough, Sebastian opened it, exposing the contents that were inside it.
Inside the box was a black pill and a white note like a manual.
{Miniaturization Pill!}
{Effects: Once taken, this pill reduces your size by roughly 1/3rd. Duration of effect ranges from 1 month to 3 months.}
Seeing this, Sebastian quickly understood. Compared to the other anatomists in this departnt, he was like a giant. Though his colleagues never complained about it, they probably felt uncomfortable around him.
This pill was the easiest way for him to bypass this trouble of size.
Once Sebastian understood it, he took and swallowed the pill without hesitation. Instantly, his body shuddered as changes started. What he didn't expect was the excruciating pain that followed.
"Ummmm, shhhhh, sh*tttt, fckkkk!!!"
A few minutes later, the pain finally subsided, leaving an exhausted Sebastian with a look of resentnt on his face. He attacked, obliterating the box out of existence imdiately with a look of vengeance.
Before Sebastian could familiarize himself with his new body, his system lit up a notification that drew his attention.
[Warning! All base attributes have been reduced by 80%!]
"…"
"F*ck, give my youth back!"
Sebastian threw a tantrum for a few seconds before calming down. Well, this was why they said to scrutinize a product well before using it.
Sebastian felt awful after losing 80% of his overall strength for over a month to perhaps 3 months. This didn't put him down too much though, he already resolved to work in this anatomy departnt for the long term.
Anatomists weren't expected to be at the war front if war broke out, so at least, that was a layer of protection that he had.
With this, Sebastian finally donned his blue lab coat.
[Smart ta-Coat Detected!]
[Smart ta-Coat Equipped!]
"Smart ta-coat?"
Sebastian didn't finish his question before the lab coat revealed its specialty. The coat squird like it suddenly turned into the legendary Doctor Strange's coat, spooking Sebastian as it wrapped him up in the best possible fit for his body.
If Sebastian wanted during the process, he could have forcefully torn the coat away from his body but he didn't since his intuition didn't' warn him of danger.
After it finally cald down, Sebastian cautiously moved.
[You have activated skill: ga Electroreceptors.]
With just one sweep with this skill, Sebastian was left awed. Not only did he get to see his body which was now almost 3 tis smaller than before, but he also got to see it in a luxurious smart ta lab coat.
"Damn, this looks badass!"
After donning his new lab coat and admiring it for a few minutes, Sebastian was now almost set for work. All that remained was to fill his stomach with food.
Through the common knowledge that he got after engaging in conversations with his fellow junior colleagues, he already knew how to get his food.
At a corner of his room, at the wall of the sturdy wall ford by the flesh of the giant sea anemone was a red button that depicted a helpless swimming Blue Tang fish. These fellows were food in every ecosystem.
Sebastian swam closer and hit the red button with his snout.
Ding!
{Food is ready…, serving in 3…, 2…, 1.}
Whoosh!
A giant tray opened up through which the live prey was thrown into Sebastian's room for him. The fish and mutated beast prey were already injected with an immobilization tonic that suppressed them both physically and magically.
Their body was weak, their access to magic was cut off, they were the ideal prey to any predator who felt too lazy to hunt by himself.
Sebastian loved hunting himself, but he didn't hate free food either.
This spectacle revealed that despite the diplomat nature that this anemone domain embodied and showed to visitors, it was still a city of predators who feast on prey to grow and evolve.

Sebastian's hearty al showcased the prosperity of this high-grade rural settlent. "Hehe, this is next level power leveling".
"I love clown city!"
After filling his stomach with the at of the helpless prey, providing the energy for a day of non-stop work, Sebastian completed the finishing touches in his room before he got ready to leave.
This was when he rembered sothing, there was a clock in his room. On thinking of this, Sebastian's heart froze as he turned to look at it dreadfully.
Ding! Dong!
{9:05 am!}
"Holy Sh*t, I'm late!"
