Chapter 629 Honeymoon in The Shadow Realm (7)

"Wait…that's a thing? Mana scanners? I didn't even know they existed…." Selene stated while looking up at Cynrik from his embrace.

"Well, with the level of technology in our country, it isn't too surprising, but as I said, I am only guessing about the function of these particular devices."

"Realistically, they can serve no other purpose in my eyes. It would be too strange for something smaller than my fist to be a power source, and I have already located the transfer nodes and connecting circuit breakers." As Cynrik spoke, his left eye continuously twitched in annoyance.

"From what I can tell, those little boxes, of which there are 12, two on the ceiling, floor, and each wall of the room, draw in particles in a thirty-second cycle."

"So, kind of like a vacuum cleaner or something to that extent?" Nodding in understanding, Selene added her input as a sign that she understood his explanation, even if it was a bit more long-winded.

"Un, and I can assure you they aren't cleaning the room or even drawing the particles in to supply power to the vast and intricate Runic Arrays covering every square inch of the vault."

"The reason I am so confident is the computer chips housed in each one of these boxes; however, without actually going inside the vault and breaking open one of the boxes, I can't be certain, so we will go with what you said, and infiltrate the house first, then make our move down to the basement level vault, which should be around 100 meters under the ground."

With that said, Cynrik didn't wait for a response from Selene and flew across the floor plan of the large Mansion toward one of the many entrance doors to the building.

When the couple arrived at what Cynrik deemed an appropriate entrance point, he sniffled and activated his stealth skill before drawing all the Mana that generally coats the outer body inside instead.

Selene did the same thing in his arms, as it was one of the first techniques he had taught her when she joined MyrkLys—although not difficult, drawing your Mana in acted in such a way that it would conceal your presence to the extreme, eliminating your chances of having a sensible Mana Signature.

Partner this concealing technique with their stealth skills; they would practically be invisible to any wandering eyes or machines attempting to monitor their advances.

Yet, even with this combo of stealth and concealment, Cynrik wasn't entirely confident about breaking into the vault unnoticed in an untraceable way. Thus he had formed a plan to ensure they got in and out of the Mansion without leaving so much as a single Mana particle behind.

Floating up toward the house's foundation, Cynrik extended his left arm toward the barrier between realms, adjusting Selene in his embrace, and opened a portal large enough for them to return to reality.

[[We are far enough away from Brance that he won't be able to spy on us, so using the Mind link is fine; try not to make any noise since there are recording devices everywhere.]] Touching down on a soft, plush, and overly expensive area rug, Cynrik released Selene and looked around the room cautiously.

[[Kay, ima go upstairs and see if the lady of the house has any expensive clothes I can swipe…steal…uh…borrow.]] Clasping her hands behind her back and shooting him a cute, teasing smile, Selene's eyes drifted toward a sizeable grand staircase; however, Cynrik quickly reached forward and grabbed her hand, halting the young lady's movement.

[[Unless you are a fat, middle-aged woman, there won't be anything that fits you. Follow me, and you'll understand.]] Cynrik said as he proceeded to drag Selene by the hand through the parlor and into a large sitting room where all the furniture had been flattened by the intense 8g of pressure.

[[Ew…is that…]] When they entered the sitting room, Selene sneered and smacked her lips in disgust because all around the flattened furniture were puddles of gory goop.

[[Yep, say hello to the bulk of the family that used to live here, and THAT… enormous bulky puddle was the so-called lady of the house.]] Pointing at the remains of a female skeleton surrounded by marginally more skin, fat, blood, and goo than the other puddles in the room, Cynrik smirked and continued speaking.

[[Judging by how much larger that puddle is when compared to the others, it's safe to say she was quite the large woman when alive. So yeah, raiding her closet will only net you a bunch of oversized gaudy clothing.]]

[[But hey, if you think you can fit in dresses the size of a refrigerator, more power to you.]]Shrugging his shoulders, Cynrik poked out his bottom lip with his tongue and fought the urge to laugh.

Standing beside her man, Selene looked away from the bloody mess of a scene back to Cynrik. Unbothered by his teasing, she was more amazed than confused that he could tell so much by looking at the bloody puddles.

However, when she remembered that he could practically rebuild scenarios in his head, she didn't find it too strange, and with a short nod, Selene crept closer and examined the nearest pile of goo in detail.

[[Oh…that's interesting, but not surprising…]] While Selene was lost in thought and admiring Cynrik's overpowered brain, his voice brought her out of the thought fog, and she watched him gingerly pad over to one of the farthest puddles, one significantly smaller than the one that was once the lady of the house.

Without any hesitation or signs of being grossed out, Cynrik bent down and swiped an object from the center of the puddle before giving it a few shakes to extricate any particulates, revealing a Watcet, undamaged and in apparent working order.

Unlike the one on his wrist, or even Selene's, the unbound device in Cynrik's hand was no longer in its small smartwatch form and instead was the size of a Pip-boy (Watch-like device from the Fallout Series.)

[[Since we never take ours off, I always knew they could handle a lot of g-forces, but I didn't think they could survive without a host's Mana; quite interesting if you ask me.]] He said with excitement in his otherwise emotionless voice.

[[Nerrrrrrrd!]] Hearing this, Selene couldn't help but curve her lips into a smirk and tease him, causing Cynrik to whip his head around and glare.

[[Listen here, woman, keep quoting Brance and see if I don't punish you by taking a vow of celibacy for the next six months.]] Cynrik snorted before holding up his right arm and attempting to hack into the unlinked Watcet.

[[WHAT!!!! There is no fucking way you can go that long, LET ALONE ME!]] Unlike Cynrik, who was perfectly calm when stating he wouldn't have sex for six months, Selene, although knowing he was only teasing, felt panic set in at his words.

[[Try me, babe; I can just throw myself into the never-ending backlog of projects and experiments I have; that will occupy me just fine.]] Looking up from the device in his hand, Cynrik shot her a look that practically screamed, "Fuck around and Find out," shutting Selene up instantly.
