Chapter 158: L&$na



Someone who is very keen would be able to sense the peculiar atmosphere in the room.

"Why have you been looking at me like that since you came back?" Silas asked, with a smile and a slightly raised eyebrow.

Of course, he knew that the reason why Luna is looking at him like that is because of what he said to her on the phone.

{You said you will explain everything to me when I get back. So, here I am.} Luna replied.

She was feeling slightly tense by how casual Silas was treating his situation.

The result from the Molecular Analyzer said that he has less than 200 years more to live but Luna wasn't sure of how accurate the time given was. She felt that it's likely possible that the situation would become worse in the future and the process would be accelerated. If that happens, she knew for sure that the 200 years would be more halved.

She wanted to know everything. She wants every piece of valuable information, even those that Silas would deem to be of no value, she wants them. The reason is because she wants everything that help her understand that situation better and make the best situation.

She felt that Silas doesn't want to tell her anything because he doesn't trust her, and this feeling waa further cemented by the restriction that Silas placed on her.

Yes, she's aware of the restriction that Silas placed on herz and she could understand his fear but she doesn't understand why.

From her understanding, she's an AGI that was created by him to assist him. Then how does he wants her to be of good assistance if he doesn't trust her?

Silas sighed and laid back on the bed. He thought of how to start explaining everything to Luna.

Actually, Luna was right. Silas initially had little trust in her. There are multiple reasons for this but the most important was that Silas was scared.

Yes, he was scared. They say that people of mostly scared it what they do not know or understand, and this was what happened to Silas.

No matter how he wants to say it or whatever way he wants to put it, the truth is that he was scared. He was scared of the unknown. He was scared of losing himself and becoming someone who he doesn't want to become.

Silas sighed again and sat down on the bed.

"Luna, systems, what do you know about them? How much do you know about them?" Silas asked curiously, as he looked at her intently.

He saw aa confused expression on her face and it later changed to disbelief.

{By systems, you mean the system in webnovels?} Luna asked curiously, and looked at him carefully.

She wants to make sure that she did hear wrong and she wasn't having an auditory hallucination, but Silas' response made her realize that she what she heard was correct.

"Yes, the same as the systems in webnovels."

Luna's first reaction was shock. As an highly intelligent AGI, what hasn't she seen or heard of, especially with her unrestricted and imperceivable access to every that's connected to the internet, but she was still shocked by what she heard.

Luna curiously looked at Silas briefly and she felt like something was trying to hack into the MAU. She felt that something was trying to bug her programming and take over her algorithm that was behind very advanced and unbreachable firewalls.

She resisted and the feeling disappeared the next moment.

She had always been curious about the entity that her master always talks to. She had always been curious about the entity in his head.

An entity that multiplies any amount spent by ten times. An entity that gives knowledge and techs thousands of years, hundreds of thousandsnof years beyond Earth can currently achieve. Techs and knowledge that would definitely be the triggaer for the already imminent cold war, if they are to be casually released to the public.

{So, it was a system? The entity in your head was a system?}

"Yes, it's a system," Silas replied with a smile.

{Was the one that gave you the knowledge that allowed you to create me?} She asked.

Due to how perceptive he has become after he maxed out his stats, Silas sense fear in Luna's voice and he couldn't help but smile.

"Yes, it was the one. Everything that I have at the moment. My strength, my superpower, my wealth, everything is from it," Silas replied.

Silas saw Luna open her mouth, wanting to say something but no words were forthcoming from her. He saw her close her mouth and looked at the floor.

Silas looked out the penthouse suite's window when he saw this, and a deafening silence descended in the room, but it was broken by Luna's voice that cut through the room.

{Is the system also the cause of you dying slowly? Is it the cause for the rapid death and rebirth of your cells?} Luna asked.

Silas turned his head and looked at Luna. He felt that there was something wrong as he could feel the coldness in her voice. Not just her voice, he felt that her temperament has changed completely.

He didn't know the reason for the abrupt change in her temperament but since he can't see anything wrong with her. Also, he quickly checked through her codes but there was nothing wrong with it. He decided to wave it aside because her coldness wasn't directed towards him.

"About that.... The system isn't responsible. It was caused by an impulsive decision of mine. I abruptly increased my strength but my body couldn't take and I nearly died. It was actually the system that saved me or I would had turned into mush that night on the island," Silas replied.

Luna's cold expression changed when she heard Silas' response, and she had a funny expression on her face.

She sighed and looked at Silas. She should had guessed as much considering her mater's specialty of always making decision without putting thoughts into it.

Her thoughts went to what Silas said. She didn't remember anything or any incident involving Silas on the island. Apart from the first time he went to get island for his meeting with Mr Andrés and the second time....

{Wait.... He did go to the island again but for what?} Luna thought to herself.

She went through her database and the past video recordings of the Gear but she couldn't find the reason for him going to the island.

Luna opened her mouth and was about to ask what happened on the island but she froze for a moment, and her head went blank, forgetting what she wanted to ask.

She closed her mouth and looked at Silas briefly, before looking down at the floor with her thoughts unknown.

"Luna, how long do you think it will take for the simulated research on the Evolution Capsule to be completed?" Silas asked.

{I can't say but a six months real world time should be should be enough for everything.} Luna replied.

"Six months should be almost 100 years in the simulated world right?"

{Yes.}

"Then, that should be enough," Silas nodded in agreement.

"Luna, I'm having an acquisition meeting with the owners of all the construction companies in the country, and it's to be held in the hotel. Help me set up the venue for the meeting."

He wants to start preparing for his tomorrow meeting with the construction companies owners thought

{Can I know the reason why you intend to acquire the construction companies from their original owners? I thought you don't like to manage anything? Why do you want this companies?} Luna asked curiously.

Since she's already familiar with Silas' character of not thinking before thinking things through before making decisions, she wants to make sure that it's not one of those spontaneous decisions of his.

"I have a plan of building construction machines with each having their own inbuilt Atomic Printer. The reason for this is because I want to use the machine to build the underground research facility. Considering just how long it's going to take them to finish the construction work on the bank building, it's definitely going to take ages for the underground research facility to be constructed.

If I build the machines, things are going to move fast. I would also need staffs for the job, and this is where the construction companies comes in. I don't want to go through the stress of creating another company and all that," Silas said and added;

"Also, I don't intend to manage the companies myself. I will buy them and merger them into one, creating a single company that would be managed by someone competent. The main reason why I'm buying the company is because I need their experienced workers."

Luna nodded when she heard what Silas said.

{I guess that's enough reason.} She said to herself, before standing up from the sofa.

{I will go and set up the venue.} She said to Silas and left the penthouse.

After Luna left, Silas laid down on the bed and closed his eye, immediately falling asleep for a his dose of relaxing VR gaming sesssion.

Time flew and it was already the morning of the meeting day.
