Chapter 15

Piles of documents hid Prof. Tenorio from the view of his desktop monitor. Nothing but papers about the financial investments, proposals, and newly acquired information about the “Dimension Pocket” of D-city collated in his office that he left to his assistant to manage. Nothing of importance remains in this room. The computer he uses barely contains anything of his. The best it can do for him is store files he knows would be snooped in by people irrelevant to the company.

Booted up on the screen is the newly inputted data Cristian and other members have placed in the company app, at least a notepad text with a list of the files and their date of upload. Select rooms for messaging, towards specific teams or groups, have been busy communicating with each other. Blinking red icons for new messages evidence this purely out of karmic spite for intentionally being inattentive towards them.

Especially the Finance and

    “Then I would like a request that the torso of the dead Primers we have been brought to the warehouse. It’s only part of what I thought it could be, but I want to see for myself if the Primer’s here in C-city has many similarities with those from A-city.” She replied. Any trace of hesitation never showed, only an intent. “Seeing the difference in size and structure for the Primer’s from A-city must mean something. The truth we already know they came from humans cannot erase the horror of their unknown. Their corpses can tell us more than what’s under our eyes.“You may not think me of anything after barely stressing myself unconscious, but I don’t condone criticizing someone just because they diminish themselves when they break down. But, I’ve given my time and thought into the Good Will. If you think I’m going to be a burden, you might as well get yourselves a new person to handle greater fascination for a cor

    He breathes every day in relief for being on their side, without any worry for his health or the rest of his other hobbies that can be considered suspicious despite how harmless it is. It’s not related to anything physical, but he does have an archive of “digital receipts” in case employees within his company, or others, would try to bother him or the people he considers his family.A few spam emails were blocked, thinking they were unimportant to what he might need. He singled out the files from the mainframe of the company app that are all direct uploads by the member of the Good Will so he can copy it despite its improperly loaded form.Never mind the possibility of questionable quality, just pondering over the information dump and necessary watching is much better to consider than missing the chance to keep a copy. Seconds as he started the download, he noticed a video file upload from Dr. Munar’s phone. It loaded on the database in th

    The three ate pizza in the remaining hours before lunch, the titular brunch. Fit for Prof. Tenorio’s confused stomach as his memory of the time he had breakfast felt ages ago, enough to make him feel hunger. Much of Eldric and Min-Ain’s conversation continued over regarding the bias between considering anti-hero-looking races in a Table Top Role Playing Game versus the stereotype ones. There is little to contribute to the topic for Prof. Tenorio besides tested bias because nothing beats personal preferences beyond objective taste.After pizza and a moment of calm discussions about the difference in console perks, Min-Ain introduced himself as simply as he could without looking awkward to the two senior members of the company. In turn, Prof. Tenorio and Eldric acquainted themselves with him like their conversations did not stop after the boy mentioned he preferred PC gaming.Their introductions were short and simple, which gave Min-Ain a bit of confidence in

    Once he heard this, Min-Ain could only wonder what power they are in ranks within the company enough to pull strings and edit a contract to favor him that much. So far, all he can choke is luck and sitting in front of two people who might be powerhouses, and it’s not bad.The time Prof. Tenorio ended his conversation with Reina, the person in the warehouse laboratory, he pre-reviewed Eldric on the contracts uptake. Chinks cleared, at least, for the demands Min-Ain wanted for his contract. They were simple ones, nothing much to be bothered, was the reassuring words Prof. Tenorio said as he flicked his fingers on the tablet’s surface.They sent their copies to both their assistants, where Prof. Tenorio and Eldric said they felt the chill in the air when they sent the contracts. Soon they were joking about their assistants, and that’s where Min-Sin got lost, listening to them describe their assistants with as much sense of how hard working they are and w

    Once the last man neared the doors of the room, the Primer moved from its place. Crooked movements, swift and sturdy in posture, alert the armed personnel that they all halt in cadence to aim their guns, pausing in anticipation. The people on the observation deck watched in silent excitement if the Primer would do anything. Only it stood from the coffin and sat beside it, like a willing dog staying in its place waiting for orders from an owner nobody knows where.Counting down to two minutes again, the guards held their breaths before Reina decided to signal them to retreat for the meantime. As if sure of it, Reina could tell the creature would stay in its place longer than any of them could hold patience.Instead, it looked around like it had eyes in awe of the visage they were taking in. From the movement of its tail to the wave of its head, they await any reaction that could note as unique or different from the records, enough to compare them. Minutes turned, and al

    Hi guys, Nate here.This month's hectic and as overwhelming. So, if you have the time, comment over the chapters newly posted.

    Chapter 16Sloshing, shifting red to orange, liquid in the lava lamp produces a special kind of eccentricity in the lab office. The ambiance in the darkroom becomes something like a neon steampunk-themed lightroom as it lost its purpose with the mixing glow beyond the dimness. On a table in the corner are several blood infusion chambers with needles that are all badly bent or ruined.They’re all A-grade equipment provided, insisted, by the **** company. None of them are disposable types. More, like the ones you’d see in a science fiction movie about monsters and patching bodies, all metallic and stainless.They are for several chemical transfusion tests, administered to the captive Primer aptly named Test Subject. A decision the staff made because their imagination and flair flew out the window. Much easier to remember, even after shortening it to TeSu.There was never a dull moment upon its arrival since yesterday,

    Following through with the other roster of human similarities in the body scan of TeSu that took quite a turn for awe or what others would say, “something expected, but at the same time, you feel surprised in the same way” sort of reaction.Sifting through the printed report and seeing all body parts have a staggering eighty percent commonality with the human body, preferably that of a female. Included in this document was an estimated favorability of what kind of female physique TeSu compares.The accuracy may not rate high enough to a standard Patraika assumed Reina considers as an acceptable score. But this proposed factor will remain in the long run for the program to pick through as she believes it will bear fruit if involved.Patraika included this note in the comparison report. Flawlessly managing to collect all this data before the end of yesterday was like a miracle she thought only to experience back in college. Even her disbelief at how lo

These Primers are not going to be eaten and smothered by power over time, however, they will co-exist in a community built by Memoria.Memoria who sat almost half a millennia awake under the ruins of F-city played another game of race between the lines with several other internet connection nodes that are knowingly joined into the old working cable lines of the dead city. Then when the race finishes, they rest for the while, thinking like a person, old and hesitant.They’ve long forgotten that they could easily browse these connections so that they could monitor the condition of the world and their old friends who now walks the human world with the grace that could only dignify those with experience.

    Hi, there Nate here :) I've enjoyed writing this story so far, but things have been complicated and I won't be able to write it anymore. There are some moments that I wish I could have fixed in the long run but it's gotten too much to hold in just one hand. After this chapter will be a short Epilog for a short mention of each relevant characters final activities before the future becomest truly a mystery. This story ran its course, pretty long if you ask me, and the development of some characters are slow but steady. There will be a new title coming after this for the coming month, it's tentative title is "Ocular to the Dying Sun." A saga of the Prime Magician and the realm of Slitark according to before their brightest star continues to deteriorate. Have fun reading, please do leave comments~

    Small-stature wobbled from their place in shock and confusion. They could hear voices, words they thought would not be possible to understand even if they have a sprinkle of memories of being able to say such things, such words. Vocabulary had almost slipped their still able memory of what they seem to perceive as their selves before this blind-like body.Their comrade underlings did not comprehend the creature in front of Small-stature, making them react in a scared way, almost darting to scurry in escape. Managing to hail them back into the premise of Small-stature’s vicinity was easy, what with One-arm herding them back to where they are.“My, forgive me. It seems like you are a newborn to this body.” Soft-spoken, as Small-stature calls them, listened to them say. “Let me soothe your worries, we are not here to relish harm upon our fellow. Rather, guide them.”Hearing and understanding what Soft-spoken said took about a few seconds of Small-stature’s comprehension, but their underl

    Two presences from the premise disappeared when the small-statured creature sensed the sensation of an optimal sound and light came from underneath the ground. There was a pause as they waited for the arrival of this, oh so, comforting resonance.Anticipation. Tension. Pause.There was a definite halt in their senses when another sensation overpowered their most awaited event, that was just been triggered moments ago. Because of this, they knew that there was something wrong. Something that would bring them great demise and abandonment, even if they know they could survive without this “thing.”Grasping this “thing” was an answered prayer they knew would be something that could help develop their comrades and these sweet-scented underlings of theirs. Telling them that they would grow and develop into better creatures that could well benefit each other. Without words, just sounds and resonance, deeds.Still, they could not help but waver in tenacity when they felt the loss of this “thi

    Waking up in another body is hellish beyond comparison. Imagine opening your eyes to blindness you didn't know existed, with the light coming from nowhere and everywhere. You don't see with your eyes, but you feel the world ten times stronger with nothing but your body who is sensitive to every kind of noise. Magic would have been more believable than realizing that your blindness is not caused by pain of any internal kind, but by your eyes absorbed inside your skull, sunken deep. Protected by a layer of skin thin but tough, while a substance within shakes and serves to stay it in place. Something moved within their skull, surreal but they could feel it moving with every shake and stir as if a jar of pickles with one pickle inside swimming in its vat of juice. Why am I comparing pickle to my situation? Calming themselves was easy, they “breathed” slow and steady, through a nose they could not feel or sense its presence on their face, but they know its there. Wildly adjusting their t

    Chapter 37Skies don’t rain beans or bacon, but Horaz, who’s gotten himself used to the way the Primer identity roams his mind, sees that this Primer sure knows how to mix the setting they stand in by displaying all food he’s been craving for. Nothing beats being human and wanting nothing but to satiate your day with all the good comfort food that lives in your head, at least the ones you’ve tasted before.He has been yearning to eat more than raw meat, which his tongue and throat burned from the bitter taste, not sweet or delectable, but bitter and tangy at the same time. The youth of sixteen years has not tasted flesh the same way it’s described with a raw steak, though he prefers well done, he probably would have had the chance to taste raw steak in the time his family would celebrate special occasions.But he prefers well-done steak, baked beans, and the occasional tacos on the weekends. Softshell because he needs to cater to his girlfriend’s taste for cleanliness, hence food with

    “Stand… down,” Akyl said slowly to the escorts. Her eyes watched the one arm that clung to the tail.She could tell that the tail, or the identity that controlled it, is strong today. There must be a correlation between their method of physical examination and their tail’s response to their body. Rather, she could sense that Horaz is just realizing that there was more to the process happening in his Primer body and just noticing it now.The other escorts, with guns that bore metal ammunition, followed through but the tranquilizer bearer did not ease his aim. The escort shook his head in rejection of her request and Akyl had to acknowledge this.Purce stood still, feeling her tension, more from fear, stiffen her body. The only part that could move was her eyes and she watched in anticipation if the doctor would do something first, or the Primer’s tail.Because, by now, she could see that the Primer is not just fighting the tail but struggling to keep its hold. The twitching stopped for

    The confines of Horaz’s room remained cold with the sprinkle of “nature’s touch,” meaning the occasional soil and other debris that could serve as “entertainment options.” Noticing the Primer consciousness be a creature of boredom was one the laboratory did not expect, and so did Horaz.Discovering this was not hard to conclude when the Primer tends to play and hunt the staff and escort that enters its domain whenever they feed or try to clean his “room.” At most, if they didn’t leave any kind of living creature to distract the Primer during its stay in the laboratory, the likeliness of it trying to destroy their place seemed likelier.Reina remembered the kind of creature the first Primer was, despite staying for only a few days in their presence. This alpha Primer did things in calculated actions as if, the creature itself wanted things to go their way so it could pretend to give them what they want.She concluded this according to how the staff then felt its actions were much devis

    Purce had to double take, knowing that the answer used, one thump of any body part meant “no.” Hastily, she signaled to Elbi that Horaz – the human consciousness, did not agree to the next procedure.Because of this, Moss suddenly wondered why the electrical current request they were aiming to control, and monitor stopped. She saw from her peripheral that Dr. Akyl left her post, the other touchscreen panel, and approached Elbi and Purce.Elbi was adjusting the program, already on its way to booting up enough electrical charges in the ideal percent, but an abrupt stop in this charging requires a reset for the application and machine. Because if it did not stop and proceed to use for its intended purpose, it would go haywire or overflow.The very machine of the gurney can only hold enough electrical charge, the extra energy that flows through the needles are nodes that cannot let one charge in it stay still. It must go through and ride the sails and winds or else it will burn. This is n
