Chapter 148
"I am going with the Blessing. I don't think I have enough talent to continue with the Spirit. I can awaken it. But, for improving it, I would need immense determination. I don't think I have such determination. What about you?" Tori shook her head and explained.
Hearing her question, Alena smirked and says "I'm planning to go with both."
"Huh! What? How can you accept both at the same time? It's supposed to be impossible." Hearing her words, Tori freaked out and yelled at her face.
"Not for long! Our Babbage family is the family of geniuses. We have finally invented the method to accept blessing while awakening the Will. We call it Trickster Trick." Alena made a proud expression and spoke.
"No, Blessing and Spirit can't coexist. This doesn't make sense. How can science defy gods and the rules? Science is supposed to work on the basis of rules. How can you break the rules with science?" Tori shook her head desperately as she moves behind.
"No dear! You are incorrect. We didn't change the rules. We defy the gods. Both are completely different terms. Why do you think people say that Human Potential is unlimited? They say that because that's the fact."
"We humans have unlimited potential. We just need to tap into it. And, that's where the science comes. We can revolutionize the earth with the power of science." Alena moved near her and chuckled while explaining her.
Listening to her, Tori remained silent for few minutes only to ask "Why are you telling me this?"
"Because I want your support." Alena made a serious expression and spoke.
"Support? You mean wealth?" Tori guessed the reason and asked.
"Correct but I want something more." Alena mysteriously explained and nods her head.
"More?" Tori expected that when she revealed her reason but still didn't understand her completely.
"If you want to be the wife of someone, don't you think he is a good choice?" Alena smiled and pointed her finger at Mike. Following her finger, Tori glanced at Mike and suddenly licked her lips "Yep, he is almost perfect."
"But, he has a Harem or he is creating a harem." Alena smiled at her words and spoke.
"Harem? Is that why he hit on you, Olive, and that half-breed girl yesterday?" Tori's lips twitched when she heard that.
"You could say that. In fact, he already has two girlfriends and two sex slaves." Alena chuckled at her question and nods her head.
"Okay, you are going a little overboard here. Sex slaves? Seriously? Why would anyone try to be his sex slave?" Tori instantly shook her head and asked.
Alena didn't answer her directly instead walked closer and whispered in her ear "If you take that thick rod inside, you will definitely understand why."
"Yo.. you had sex with him?" Hearing her words with a hot air blowing in her ears, Tori shuttered as she retreated few inches.
"Nope! But, he did stick his finger and made me cum in less than five minutes. Well, I can't say that for certain but why would anyone try to be his sex slave if it is not for sex?" Alena shook her head and explained herself with some doubts.
"Even if I do like him, why do you need this?" Tori asked after thinking for few minutes.
"Just give a thought about his talent and his achievement within a month, and tell me the difference between him and his master," Alena asked with a mysterious smile on her face.
"If we do not measure them based on strength, rather on achievement and talent. Then, I can say he will certainly surpass his master." Tori thought for a while before answering her. She had gathered some information about Mike on her own. Although it wasn't detailed as Alena's, she could still tell the difference.
"Not only surpass him but also surpass him by a huge margin. Now, let's go back to the topic of strength. Currently, Mag Beast Emperor is a Half-Saint and probably the strongest between other Half-Saint except for David Flora."
"If Mike is going to surpass him, then wouldn't he be overpowered? A few days ago, Mike was poisoned. Mad Beast Emperor went to the Dark Raven who was the culprit and smashed their headquarter. If it wasn't for the new half-Saint that emerged from the Dark Raven, then he might have slaughtered few emperors."
"And, nobody can do anything to him. In short, he can protect anyone he has the deep connection with." Alena explained as Tori's expression changed with each sentence. She never thought so much would've happened during these short days.
"You do not want the protection from Mad Beast Emperor rather you want to be protected by future Mike. But, why? Your family doesn't have any potential enemies, right?" Tori spoke as she understood some of it and asked everything that she doesn't understand.
"Didn't I say this earlier? Science defies gods. We support science that means we are defying gods. Although gods won't descend to earth, we would still have potential enemies from many holy churches where the most trustworthy followers of gods reside." Alena chuckled but her expression instantly changed into seriousness.
But just when Tori was about to say something, Alena took out another chip that covered both of them into a dark sphere. After two minutes, the dark sphere was removed. When both of them appeared in sight, Tori's eyes and mouth were wide open with disbelieve on her face.
"You saw the letter, right? We aren't evil. There are countless humans still living a hard life. A son wants to be a cultivator but their family can't support him. A father wants to feed his family twice a day but he can't find a job."
"In this technological era, if you don't possess a higher degree of knowledge, it's hard to get the job. So, they volunteer for our experiments. You don't expect us to create something that is god-defying without proper experiments, right?"
"Fifteen thousand people died during experiments! We do not pity them nor do we discourage them. Because they signed the contract willingly. They risked their lives for the betterment of their family. Your family is one of the richest families on earth, right?"
"But, do you know there are thousands of workers that work day and night on those mines, risking their lives to get those dark energy crystals for you? Everyone has a different fate. Some are born with riches while some are born in the roads."
"It depends upon your parents and your childhood to determine your future. Those families signed for their lives but they created a better future for their families. But, there are still people in the world who don't follow the normal routine. Didn't you say there were many arrogant leaders in the world? Just change the past tense into present tense!"
"Slowly, our family started lacking resources and security to continue these experiments because of these leaders supporting those churches. So, I need your help with resources." Then she turned her head at Mike and continued "And, his help for security."
"With your family wealth, my family knowledge, and his protection, we can change everything. You will gain the talent that you desire. He will gain the pleasure he desires. And, I just want my family safe from those people and the gods. Although I am not smart enough, I still want my family to pursue science which has been our legacy."
When Alena stopped speaking, Tori fell into deep thought. She couldn't decide whether to help Alena or not. But she knows what she desires.
Talent!
Even though she has enough talent, she is not the type of person that is satisfied. She wanted more talent but she is not the type of person with unbreakable determination. In fact, her determination is like Mike's. Except, she doesn't have the system as Mike does.
This is why she was considering Alena. Otherwise, she wouldn't have agreed because she still believes whatever Alena's family is doing is bad. Suddenly, a voice rang in her ears.
"Tori, stop seeing the world in black and white. The world is grey. Those who see the world in black and white are destined to fall. You can't be a saint. You can't be true evil. You have taken people's life. That should make you an evil person but you are not."
"Because that is the real world. That is the grey world. I need your help. You like Mike. As for falling in love, I believe you will slowly fall. We can be together. Your wealth and my brain can support each other. And, one day, Science will be the Ultimate Power of this world."
"It's not about creating AI or robots. Science is about understanding the depth of the natural phenomenon of the universe. His harem consists of Jenny Flora. She possesses both money and knowledge. If we do not work together, we will be buried in his harem."
"Tori, please help me and I will help you. Let's use what we have to create something extraordinary."
Alena stood up in a domineering manner and spread her hands for Tori to hold.
