37 A Dangerous Value

Then he went back to the shore to keep those two wriggling fishes in his hands, back with his belongings, and then he sat down to open his SENSORY STATUS WINDOW.

"I think this is directly related to the improvement in my sense of 'SIGHT', I have to raise my sense of 'Sight' quickly after all it is still the sense with the least amount of improvement when compared to my other four senses" thought June while looking at his SENSORY STATUS WINDOW.

He noticed that although there was some increase, still it was not enough when compared to his other senses especially like "TOUCH" and "TASTE".

"I have something in mind but it will have to wait", June said to himself while looking up at the sky, which had started to become orange as the dusk was arriving.

June noticed that it was already evening, and once again went back into the water and in around next forty five minutes he had finally caught five more fishes.

The first three were the ones that were closest to him, whereas for the next four grey fishes, he had to bring them closer to him after focusing on one at a time.

After collecting a total of eight light grey colored fishes, he noticed that the sky was already getting darker.

Before preparing to take his leave from this river stream and going back to the Soma Village, there was one last thing that that June wanted to try, just out of his curiosity.

He went closer to the shore and dipped his hands in the pond and took some water out from it. Then he closed his eyes and activated his amplified sense of "TASTE" and he drank the water from the river stream that was in his hands and to his surprise a different number than what he had expected popped up in blue color within his 'TASTE INDICATOR'.

[ -0.5 ]

While looking at this number June subconsciously knitted his eyebrows, then in order to check for any mistakes, he took another handful of water from the different part of the pond and carefully checked it with his amplified sense of "SIGHT", but he found no problems with it.

After checking very carefully once more, June again drank the water in his hands, but without any noticeable change, once again the same blue colored number popped up in his 'TASTE INDICATOR'.

[ -0.51 ]

When we drink the water, under normal circumstances our body absorbs all of the one hundred percent of the water that goes through our digestive system passage, but at the same time our body also has to maintain the correct water levels within it, so it expels the excess amount of water as the waste product after getting filtered by our two kidneys through our urinary bladder.

In case we drink too much water, and our kidneys are unable to function properly, our body will not be able to expel that extra amount of water at the right time, which will lead to situations where our body will automatically start to swell, especially our brain, and the water level in our blood will also rise, leading to the major problems like swelling in brain, confusions, seizure, loss of balance, coma, or even worse.

So, in the end, very practically speaking our body does not digest any water by making it a part of itself, but instead our body circulates and maintains the water levels by absorbing some and expelling some, which is different in the case of the solid food, which is properly digested and permanently stored within our bodies.

Normally when we drink the fresh water, it is never one hundred percent pure, but instead there are always some kind of minerals, salts and other ions present in it which are, under normal circumstances, not at all harmful for our body.

That is why the water taken from the different areas and locations will always have a different taste, but the pure water is supposed to be tasteless.

Even if there are some kind of harmful minerals present in the water, still the reading in the 'TASTE INDICATOR' of the June's Quantum Dot would have shown a value that was not more than '-0.0001', but '-0.5' is comparatively a very, very dangerous value.
