Chapter 7 Quantaflux

In the great saga of the world, where stories are etched into the pages of time, there's one secret keeper who has changed the game: Quantaflux Crystal.

Imagine those ancient scrolls, whispering tales of ancient civilizations. Now fast-forward to today's digital vaults where data resides. The Quantaflux Crystal rewrites the story of how we store and process information.

Think of it this way: we're all used to phones and computers doing their thing. Storing photos, sending messages, crunching numbers. Hard drives and solid-state drives are like the trusty organizers that keep the files in order. Processors are the brainiacs, solving equations at lightning speed. But here's the rub: These devices have limits. The amount of stuff they can hold, the speed at which they can work, it's all like a ceiling they can't break through.

Now imagine the Quantaflux Crystal strolling onto the scene. In a world where gigabytes are like coins in your pocket, this crystal unfolds an entire library. It's like a magic trick, but it's real. And the speed? Normal devices are like sprinters in a race, going as fast as they can. But the crystal, it's like a superhero with super speed. It does calculations so fast, it's like a whirlwind of numbers.

So how does this mystical crystal do it? Well, it's all about the way it's built and the way it communicates with the universe. You see, instead of storing data like standard storages, the crystal goes full quantum. It weaves data into this intricate web of quantum states. These states are like secret codes, each carrying a different piece of the puzzle. It's like a dance of light and information, with the crystal's lattice providing the stage.

Imagine a hologram, not just for show, but for real. Each tiny piece of the crystal's structure is like a pixel, and together they paint this masterpiece of data. And it's not just a pretty picture. These patterns create harmony within the crystal, ensuring that the data stays put, untarnished by the hands of time.

Now, to dive into this data wonderland, the crystal does this quantum waltz. It's all about controlled motion and resonance within its structure. By tweaking the energy of its parts, you can hop through the hologram and grab the data you need. And don't forget the surface of the crystal-it's like a door to a world of other crystals. They're all connected by quantum magic and talk to each other like old friends, no matter how far apart they are.

In short, the Quantaflux is a naturally occurring crystal that theoretically opens the door to limitless data storage and processing speeds, reaching the astounding range of billions of gigahertz.

...

Wouldn't it be a dream come true if Quantaflux technology became mainstream? Ah, if only. The mere thought of having this revolutionary advancement in everyone's hands, a crystal-powered future, is enough to make hearts race. But here's the catch: Quantaflux isn't just a fancy gadget on the shelf; it's the heartbeat of something far more fascinating.

Imagine this: dungeons. Not those dusty old cellars, but the real thing - spatial distortions isolated from the rest of the world, teeming with deadly monsters. And guess what? Quantaflux is at the very heart of these mystical vaults. These dungeon cores, as they're called, are the powerhouses of the dungeons. They're like the engine rooms that keep the whole magical realm humming.

And here's where it gets juicy. Quantaflux is one of the main components of dungeon cores, the very essence that holds the entire dungeon together. Try to pull it out and it's like unraveling the threads of reality itself. To remove the core is to give the dungeon a one-way ticket to oblivion.

But wait, there's a twist to this story. Dungeons aren't just dangerous. They're businesses, moneymakers. Treasures galore, magical artifacts, creatures to tame - you name it, dungeons have it. Humans have struck gold (both literally and figuratively) in these places. Adventurers risk life and limb to venture into the depths in search of glory and riches.

In fact, the origin and presence of Quantaflux is classified information, lest unsettling ideas take root in the minds of the people. However, Elian found himself privy to this well-guarded knowledge due to his family's military status. Even so, should he decide to let the cat out of the bag, the consequences would be dire.

So while Quantaflux may seem like the key to a new age, the harsh reality is that dungeons are a gold mine. They're a thriving business where fortunes are made and dreams are fulfilled. Sacrificing a dungeon for a handful of Quantaflux sounds like a bad deal, even if the future of the world hangs in the balance.

Here was this revolutionary material, in front of a random 11-year-old boy living in a random kingdom. Elian still couldn't believe it. Earlier today, he had recognized it immediately because he had done extensive research on the material, as it was the only missing piece needed to complete a project close to his heart.

Memories drifted in - a casual conversation with his father about his need for Quantaflux, a memory now dim. Unbeknownst to Elian, his father had held onto that conversation. In an unexpected turn of events, his father managed to acquire the elusive substance. A single question echoed through Elian's mind: What price had his father paid to obtain it?

In fact, let alone a price, is there even a market for it?

Elian really wanted to know, but he was aware of his limitations. So he reluctantly pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind, like a bookmark in a book he wasn't quite ready to finish. It wasn't giving up; it was just admitting that some answers would take time and patience. The material would still be there tomorrow, and maybe he'd have a clearer path forward by then.With a determined exhale, Elian shifted his focus back to reality, knowing that one day the pieces of this baffling puzzle would fall into place.

For now, he had more pressing matters to attend to.

Notes

I don't major in physics. This chapter is based on my hour long study of quantums So for any offended physicist, I am sorry. You can correct me in comments.
