Getting a Technology System in Modern Day (FISA)
By the second week of its release it had already reached a whopping 357 million downloads.This was an unprecedented rise of an app and it became a conversation starter, leading to more people hearing about it leading to more people downloading it.A positive feedback loop, a perpetual machine of success, a fusion reactor for relevance and a dark energy producer of conversation.DAMN!!!Anyway the number of users kept increasing more and more prompting media outlets to talk about it leading to a wave of free advertisement HAHAHAHA.But while all these were opening something sinister was happening behind-d their backs....Google HQ."What steps are you taking in breaking the program?" Asked Bob.Bob was responsible for breaking the security of the so called GAIA program, as orders from above wanted them to crack and learn how the AI works for them to implement it to their own AI."We are trying but it proves to be difficult because we haven't managed to find how the inception even wor

It was followed immediately with another one to give him more details before he makes his decision.[NOTE!!If you move forward with the merging, the Runic mana vessels will also merge with your blood vessels, this will lead to the change of the users body characteristic and your body will turn into Runic body]'What is the difference?' he asked in his head as he didn't know what the difference was, this was due to the knowledge about runes being too expensive for him to buy.But this time something different happenedDING!!!!![ 500,000,000sp spent to buy the relevant knowledge!!!]'And there goes my hard earned sp, i had to fucking release the program to the public to get them, but you just spent them without even consulting me, now i have to wait for the release of GAIA OS to earn more sp.'But before he could finish his complaining about the system spending nearly all the sp he gained from releasing BugZapper to the public, a massive info dump interrupted even his thinking and c

The moment he pressed yes, the heart stopped for a short period of time before it started beating again, but this time it was glowing.What followed next was the golden vessels started moving closer to blood vessels while glowing too.They didn't have too much trouble reaching them as when they were made they were made parallel to blood vessels, this in return made it so that the length of blood vessels and the mana vessels was equal, which made it easier for the merger to be done without trouble.When they merged the heart started beating faster than usual due to the volume it needed to push in one vessel being doubled at once but this was only for a short period of time because the runes on the heart started moving and changing their arrangements assimilating with the heart completely.Making the heart look like zebra stripes but in gold and red. Normally when you mix gold and red liquids, the result becomes orange-y brown, but due to the golden liquid being mana it overwhelms the r

"Upon review of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court order, which requires GAIA Technology to provide access to their proprietary technology known as BugZapper, and having heard the arguments of both parties, I hereby ORDER that:GAIA Technology shall comply with the FISA court order and provide access to BugZapper to authorized government personnel for the purposes of foreign intelligence gathering.GAIA Technology shall provide access to BugZapper within thirty (30) days of the issuance of this order.GAIA Technology shall take all necessary steps to protect the confidentiality of any proprietary information obtained by authorized government personnel.Failure to comply with this order may result in legal penalties and other serious consequences."TANG!!!

Getting a Technology System in Modern Day Going home and beginning his work
A week after he woke up.He returned from his final physical therapy session as he had acted long enough and he needed to return to work immediately and handle their current predicament.After taking a bath and changing his clothes, he packed his clothes in his bag then left the hospital room finding his mother waiting for him to take him home."You settled everything?" She asked to make sure they didn't forget anything."Yeah, even if I left something they will call us when they find it" He answered, making her nod agreeing to what he said."Okay let's hurry Henry is waiting for you at home" With that said they left to the elevator for the parking lot where their car was.…..When they arrived at the house and were entering the parking lot Aron discovered bodyguards around the house.'Looks like Sarah already did what I asked' He thought as he greeted them and entered the house."BROTHER!!" The moment he entered the house Henry shouted while running and jumped on him."Be careful you

"So that's almost everything that happened until now." After saying that Aron took a deep breath, as he felt tired after talking nonstop for more than 4 hours."Any questions?" He asked after taking a few more breaths.{Many, but I will ask them when they are needed?} Nova replied then added {Sir you need to finish something}."I know." He replied lazily then he said."Bring up the codes for BugZapper" the moment he said that, the screen immediately showed the three versions of BugZapper.The very first one he created from his crappy computer, the second one he created after buying the house and creating his home server and the third one which he made for the public release."Just leave the first one and remove the rest" He said and immediately only the first one remained."Downgrade it to the same level as the public version one" He said and the computer immediately opened a coding app and started writing code using the currently existing programming languages, downgrading it to be t
Getting a Technology System in Modern Day Beginning of the plan
"What took so long? I'm pretty sure they would have dived here with special forces if we delayed any longer" Sarah said immediately after they entered her office."I had to solve some problems" He answered while sitting down."Have you managed to solve them?""Yeah and here is the hard drive." He said as he removed a hard disk from his backpack and put it on the table."Are you alright with this?" She asked Aron wondering how come he didn't seem angered by this."I'm frustrated by this situation, but unfortunately, our current lack of strength prevents us from taking any action to prevent it. Companies such as Google and others spend over a billion dollars each year on lobbying efforts, while our own company hasn't even been in existence for that long."Aron said but then he added."That's why I'm looking for ways to make sure something like this never happened again""Mh…"Sarah nodded in agreement as she has also been looking for ways to do the same but other than lobbying there seem

Decisions
After gathering every last body from the wreckage and laying them in the hangar, Dreznor finally broke the silence.“Do you have any way we can cover them for burial?”{I can print them for you if you want,} Little Protagonist replied gently.“Please do so,” he said, his voice subdued as he turned back to kneel before the body of his son, small, still, and cold, with a gaping hole in his chest where the energy round had ended his young life. Dreznor lowered his head and placed a cloth over his son's face with shaking hands.“Rest in peace. I’ll join you after I’m done with all of them,” he whispered.He moved to his wife next, then to his mother, repeating the same words, the same gesture, each time slower than the last. Each time it felt harder to let go.Half an hour later, the 3D printer beeped softly, indicating that the burial cloths were ready. One by one, he wrapped the bodies in the printed covers, each fold done with reverence and care. The process was slow, painful, six hour
Watering the Seed
“I understand your reluctance, but my proposal doesn’t violate the restrictions placed on you,” Minister Youssef replied calmly, the confidence in his tone making it clear they had already considered such limitations. “Our side won’t receive any wormhole technology, we’ll simply provide mana stones for their operation. Your side would handle all technical aspects. We’d share the profits as business partners.”He leaned slightly forward. “Think of it as us being shareholders. You manage the operations; we invest and receive dividends. That way, we maintain full compliance, we never come into direct contact with the technology.”“If that’s the case,” the representative said after a pause, “and the wormhole use is restricted within our own territories, then yes, it might be possible. But I’ll still need to report this back home before anything can move forward.”His tone remained neutral, but the subtle shift in his expression was enough; he was already hopeful and leaning toward agreeme
Lacing it With Temptations
The fleets of the Astral Conclave civilizations, carrying the exchanged mana stones, departed a day after the trade was completed. This time, the process was far smoother than before, as the exchange had taken place inside the Trade Hub itself. Their representatives, along with their close entourages, remained behind, unsure when their negotiations with the Empire would conclude, but aware that the importance of the talks warranted their continued presence.While discussions around the VR network had stalled, pending approval from their respective governments. During this period, the empire requested individual meetings with each representative to discuss separate matters.Now that VR access was granted, those who accepted the invitation found themselves summoned to private virtual meeting rooms, far from the watchful eyes of other representatives. This allowed each nation to negotiate without the risk of backlash from the top ten civilizations, who might otherwise view one-on-one mee
Our Conditions
“Should we accept your requests, what are the conditions?” the Elara representative asked, breaking the heavy silence that had settled over the room. The air was thick with contemplation as each delegate weighed the enormous implications of the offer before them.They all knew this wasn’t the meeting where a decision would be made. The stakes were far too high. Instead, they were here to gather the full list of demands, terms, and potential benefits, enough to return to their respective governments and present a comprehensive proposal for final judgment.Masimbi gave a slight nod, then replied steadily, “There are only a few conditions, but each exists for good reason. They’re not just to protect our interests, but to ensure that the system cannot be corrupted or weaponized to the detriment of the entire network.”He raised one finger.“First, we require that the VR network be protected from hostile interference. This protection must be formally enshrined within Conclave law. Any indi
Resumption
The meeting that had initially been postponed for just one day ended up being delayed by an additional four days at the request of the representatives. They needed more time to inform their governments, allow them to fully digest the implications of the technology, and formulate a new approach before presenting their decisions.Though five days might have seemed excessive at first, the time passed in what felt like the blink of an eye. When they reconvened in the same meeting room, the atmosphere had shifted. Gone were the strategies and agendas of the original meeting, replaced now by entirely new plans shaped by the earth-shattering potential of what they had witnessed."Our government is inquiring about the possibility of purchasing the technology," Carvath said as soon as the floor was opened. "They’re ready to hear your terms in exchange for it."Over the course of nearly five days of rigorous analysis, the top fifteen civilizations formed a covert pact to collaborate in investig
Nyx's First Action
“Looks like this is what he was talking about,” the Trinarian prince murmured as he removed the VR device from his head. The thin, metallic trusses, designed to automatically and comfortably adjust to any head size or shape, felt strangely underwhelming in his hands, considering the sheer magnitude of what they were capable of.He stared at it, already dreading the thought of going back to a life without this technology. Now that he knew it existed, how could he? More importantly, he knew the government would feel the same once they learned the full extent of its capabilities.“Any updates on our request for a meeting with the emperor, or are they still delaying?” the prince asked, not bothering to look up.“We haven’t checked yet, sir,” his assistant replied. “We were awaiting your directive. With this new information, you may want to reconsider your approach, perhaps adjust what we’re willing to offer after consulting with the king and hearing his input.”The prince smirked slightly
I Need a Moment of Peace
One Hour Later“Then we will take an hour-long break for him to update you on his findings,” Masimbi announced, pausing the meeting just as Cravath logged out. Without hesitation, he and the other human representatives stood up and left the room, granting the others privacy to discuss without fear of prying eyes.The moment the doors closed behind them, Cravath wasted no time.Without a word, he pulled every representative into his mental network, no warning, no request for permission.Yet, not a single one resisted.They all understood the urgency. Whatever he had discovered was significant enough that he deemed it necessary to share immediately and without interference.Curiosity and unease filled the air as they waited for his findings.………….“The two hours I spent there told me everything I needed to know about it. And if anything, they’re underrepresenting what this technology can do,” Cravath said the moment everyone took a seat at the rudimentary round table he had constructed.
The Zelvora Scapegoat
“Would you like to test it?” Masimbia asked, his tone calm and measured. There was no point in further explanations, he knew their minds were already racing with doubt. Instead of arguing over the validity of the technology, he would let the results speak for themselves.Silence.None of them answered immediately. Their hesitation was obvious, their expressions guarded. Trust between them and the Empire was at its lowest, this was nothing more than a transactional relationship, devoid of any real goodwill.And with what they knew of the Zelvora’s capabilities, both in offense and defense, some from firsthand experience, how could they be sure this wasn’t a trap?What if, the moment they put on the devices, the Empire activated them?Trapping them in an illusion. Brainwashing them. Shattering their minds. Or, worst of all, extracting their memories, laying bare their governments’ secrets, their personal vulnerabilities, handing the Empire an undeniable edge.The risk was too great.
Dreznor II
For hours, Dreznor spoke, recounting every memory that surfaced. His voice wavered at times, thick with emotion, but he pressed on. He told Little Protagonist about his past, the life he once had, and the chains that had bound him ever since he was fifteen.His civilization had lost a brutal war against a neighboring power, and the terms of surrender had been merciless. Anyone who had played a role in the war—whether as a soldier, a medic, a logistics officer, or even a mere clerk in the government—was stripped of their freedom. Families of these individuals were not spared either. Some were forced into indentured servitude, while others, like Dreznor and his mother, were outright sold as slaves. His father, being a valiant General who had fought to the very end and perished on the battlefield, sealed their fate. Yet fortune intervened, as Dreznor and his mother found themselves purchased together by a single owner.For thirty years, Dreznor had known nothing but servitude. He had gro
