“This is the kind of welcome my child self would be happy to receive,” Trust said as he eyed the crows, all perched on top of the railing and any surface they could stay on. The snobbish one, as he calls it, sat on his shoulder, prompting him to scratch its chin.
The siblings he asked for help during their trip outside of the rural in A-city, sat together with their sharp beaks pointed at him. The other two looked frazzled and old, perhaps the old pair in the group of five. He can only guess how far they flew for the rest of them to chase him and Betts here in C-city, but he was thankful for their perseverance even though he can influence the same kind of birds in this city, they still stuck to him like loyal familiars.
“Listen carefully,” he said to them as calmly as possible. Projecting his thoughts to the crow’s minds about the map of the city and all the “Dimension Pocket dots” location in the northern and northwestern part

Fields of grey to one side and an ever-long expanse of darkness over-arching above, covered the vision of Horaz as he groaned in pain, but no normal voice emit from his mouth, only growls and groans not of his own. He has been lying on the ground for several hours now since he woke up. Still, nothing but the feeling of constraint is felt throughout his body.The restriction binding his body at current did not include his tail, it moved in slight twitches, like spasming muscles but on the elongated appendage. That very lively part of his body wanted to move like it wanted to be free of him because he was being an unholy nuisance for not moving around. That’s just how it is, if a part of your body grew its own life, the least you could do is become accommodating of it, or control it because you know you’re the stronger one.Delusions and dreams don’t come hard in this state he’s in where Horaz deliberately sleeps through his consciousness and lets

Footsteps reverberated through Horaz senses as he struggled to push his still immovable body, but the hope he felt from Trust’s sudden presence gave him enough push to motivate himself. There is a thing as never giving up from the sign of a being that never let him down. At least there was a narrative like that that ran in his head. There was a second pause when he realized that the belief he had about Trust felt artificial yet comparably real because it seems like there is an ingrained program in his mind, due to being around him that short, that became a staple thought. That there is a true sense of belonging and camaraderie with the being named Trust, and that he should be given precedence.Any chance to convince himself otherwise, that this is not an original thought of Horazs own, goes out of to the gutter and flushed gone from his mind when he tries harder wanting to deny Trust’s imprinted authority in his head. Juggling this and trying to move his body bore

Chapter 25Blue screens from three monitor’s illuminated Cristian’s face as he slurped the last of the cup noodles he prepared before he started an hour and a half ago. The continuous humming of the personal computer he was using had not just shut into the seclusion of hardware disfunction, but it had overheated because of his attempt to compare two files. There was no harm to what he wanted to do, but the computer says otherwise as it ended with a frowning face on the blue screen.“What did I do wrong?” He asked himself as he reset the computer. Watching the blue turn black then a booting up sound from the speakers indicated the smooth restart prompt.While he waited for his computer to show the log-in screen, he looked at the room he and Min-Ain are sitting in, which is just the one spare hotel room under the penthouse. The astonishing thing about this is the readily prepared room equipped with three computers, each with three monitors to accompany.Prof. Tenorio told them to take t

Hi, Nate here :) Seems like the novels getting longer by the chapter and the end is not nigh but struggling afloat. That's why to all those who passed by to read or tried reading my story, thank you.*bow deeply* You may not comment or say anything untoward to the story, but I do appreciate and hope you enjoyed it. Following through this story has gone through some unexpected turns. From trying to justify the lack of romance to f*ck it and let the lack of common sense become THE mentality and psychology. The fact that I did a bit of shortcut for the characters to meet again is quite unoriginal and almost too slow burn, but it comes with the territory of world building. Either way, a hint that the coming arch would be about Horaz and most of the experiments. So, buckling up for some mild violence and gore needs to be fore warned. It's not as inhumane as one would think, but it is sometimes my hidden pleasure to draw out words just to say "its gross," "it hurts," and "i don't want t

“D-city is a far cry from C-city,” Min-Ain suddenly starts. He’s in a seat near the window that’s still shuttered with a post-modern-looking curtain. It is just a canvas blind that rolls up and down from a string on the side.Min-Ain continues while he looks through the menu, saying. “Compared to the quality of streets and buildings there, here is like a weird paradise made by expensive, or whatever, strong concrete. It’s cool when I first came here but found myself adapting fast since everything is just mentally…wow.”“I know what you mean,” Cristian says, “I live in D-city, I still do. I have a home there and here, but it’s more of a work-given home here in C-city. It’s a place not related here in **** company.”“Wait, you’re a D-city citizen too?” Min-Ain asked as he looks up from the menu. “I mean, you don’t look like a citizen from that place. Unless you live in those expensive high-rise buildings or condominiums? I mean, I won’t judge, I don’t envy those guys living in those hig

Moving lights distracted Akyl when she sat finishing her plate of sandwiches as she woke up from her daydreaming self. Sitting on the chair with an almost loose height adjuster made her inch her legs closer to the ground every time a random click of plastic and metal silently peeps under her buttocks. She may be heavy for the office equipment yet she never tries to adjust it back, or for most let her mind properly adjust back into the life she’s currently living.

Reina only raised her head a minute after Akyl sat down on one of the chairs in front of her table. The “good day” Akyl said to her was not the trigger for her to stop reading but the fact she’s already done sending responses in the meantime.Smiling in her small smirking sort-of manner, Reina reached under her desk to hand Akyl a box of mint sticks she keeps for her consumption. Not for her breaks, breath freshening, or any other reason, but to simply serve as a throwaway to any guest she has in her office. That’s the kind of simple hospitality she’s begun to show, as Reina observed most of her employees shift their mood when they’re offered a piece of candy before conversing.Keeping her façade even in the presence of someone who is internally aware of Reina’s folly won’t hurt her, but it does seem to get on most people’s nerves. The way Reina perceives Akyl’s expression during the time they were conversing about her role and work here in the labs.“So, how’s the team faring?” Asked

In Horaz’s burdened groggy confusion, he could only muster the energy to stand, even though he saw how ruined his torso was from being opened. There is no telling him what to feel or do because by default he cannot understand that he should be dead by now instead of looking like a fish and floundering for air above ground. Miraculous as he felt when he woke up despite the pinching feeling from his feet to his neck, the reality of his skin peeled back to reveal his internal self comes as a slow descent of “what’s going on” to a silent scream.Eyes bulging in seconds with a slurring mouth that fell open, Horaz clasped the metal table underneath his tilted body that follows the flow of his footing on a stopper at the end. His feet laid solid on the stopper, but straps held his legs firm over the table that’s why he could only push his arms forward. Doing so broke a part of his skin but it only tore apart due to the clamp and metal nail. It stuck loo
