6 Ch 06 - Mindscape (2/2)

I understand that my mindscape will always be a work in progress and as time passes it will become more secure and complex to navigate for any intruder.

Working on my mindscape was mentally exhausting. The great progress was only possible because I already had a photographic memory so it saved me time in consolidating them. My data analysis ability helped me quickly sort out which memory will go in which place. Let's not forget my meditation skills.

I have just built an outside shell for my West Tower. There is nothing inside it.

For now, I have just focused on the East Tower. I have divided it into 4 levels internally.

On the ground floor is the Data Centre with direct but limited access to my subconscious mind.

On the first floor is the Muggle Library.

On the second floor is the Study Room.

On the third floor is the Star Labs.

The data centre is divided into 4 sections - Raw Data, Information, Knowledge Arena and Trash Zone.

Any and all memories of the day will first be stored in the Raw Data section. Like if I memorise a book with my photographic memory or my memory of eating food it will all be stored in the data section. Basically, everything that I remember but doesn't necessarily understand.

Once the raw data is analysed by my brain and I can make sense of the data or it's something of relevance in my mind then it is sent to the information section and if not then to the trash zone. Thanks to my gift of Kinetic Memory Body this is done subconsciously by the brain when I go to sleep.

Those who think that hoarding knowledge in your mind without any consequences are fools. I want to keep my mind fresh and in its pristine condition by doing its proper maintenance.

Any memory in the trash zone will fade away from my conscious mind with time. I made it so because though our minds have unlimited storage capacity there is a limit to the information our minds can handle without going crazy.

Add to it the burden of my photographic memory where I can recall each and every memory of my life whether useful or not. So I needed something like this. Thankfully with the help of occulumency, I could somehow achieve this. Must be the magic at work.

Memories in the information section which are the long-term memory can now be actively analysed further by making associations with my existing knowledge and deriving my personal understanding of the subjects or topics. This derived understanding is sorted in the Knowledge Arena for further transfer if needed.

In the Muggle Library, all of my understanding and knowledge of the subjects or topics will be stored on a bookshelf dedicated to that subject or topic. If any topic can be considered a discipline then it will have its own dedicated space on the bookshelf. For each discipline, a basic foundation book is available followed by a separate book on each topic in the discipline.

All disciplines have a master book having access to books for each topic under the discipline. The master book can be found in the study room on the second floor. The study walls are in light blue and off-white colours which helps in concentrating. The study room also holds all my life memories catalogued by the year. Each yearbook has 12 sections and a total of 365 chapters or 366 chapters if it's a leap year for each day's memories of important events. Profile Section is dedicated to holding the records of profiling assessments of all the individuals I interact with or will interact with in the future. For now, it's just my own profile.

ABILITIES:

### KINETIC MEMORY BODY {Innate Trait} (Almost a Biological Android - Result of Soul Fusion)

* [Photographic Memory]: Longer retention and recollection in great detail.

* [Data Analysis]: Precise mental calculations or simulations provided there is adequate knowledge to support such operation. Utilizes the Subconscious Part of the Brain.

* [Multi Tasking]: Multiple thought processes run in parallel. Current Limit: 4 Channels

* [Complete Conscious Control]: Due to the highly developed and robust nervous system provides an exponential learning curve for any form of physical activity

- [Enhanced Reflex]: Greater Control over Body allows reacting at an almost superhuman level.

- [Enhanced Senses]: Sight, Hearing, Smell, Taste, Touch and Spatial Perception

- [Super Mode]: High concentration mode allows for control beyond the norm of my body. The current limit is 5 seconds at a length. It can be utilized every day after a good 6 hours of sleep once. By digesting high calory food the cooldown can be reset but overall should have a gap of at least 90 minutes in between each activation to prevent muscle burnout.

On the top floor or the third floor is Star Labs. I named the floor as such taking inspiration from The Flash series and also because of the starry night sky of my mindscape. I hope that in the future all my mental data modelling simulations can be carried out in this place. Currently, it hosts a mental clock which not only tells me the exact date and time for all the timezones of the world it also works as a mental stopwatch and a mental alarm clock. I made them so that I can use them for the timings during my physical activities and keep track of time. All my memories of real life are timestamped using this clock.

My whole mindscape is constructed by a very flimsy layer of magic and looks almost like a hologram projection. The best comparison by analogy for my mindscape would be that of a museum holding items of great value but there is no security to stop anyone from trying to steal them when the owner is sleeping.

I will need to continue to strengthen my mindscape before it can survive any impact from a mind reader but on how to do it properly I will need to acquire the tomes on mind arts specifically on occulumancy.

My martial arts studies were also coming up fine. Now that I am free from school I will be focusing on the physical aspects of my body.

It's been a year since I joined the martial arts dojo. Till now due to time constraints, I focused only on wrestling and boxing. Now I can look forward to building up my combat skills repertoire.

With these thoughts, I drifted off to sleep.
