Getting a Technology System in Modern Day

"It seems like the system is really putting way too much importance in runes" Aron said as he zoomed out a little trying to see the complete runic sentences written in his heart by the system.

He was having a hard time seeing the complete runes as the letters were the size of an atom.

[From just the functions that we know they can do, it seems like it puts way more importance that you imagined Sir] Nova replied to Aron's statement.

"What do you mean by that?" Aron asked.

Although he knew why she said that, he wanted to hear her reasoning for saying that.

[From the runic knowledge that I got from your brain, Runic practitioners usually need to wait some time for their magic energy to replenish in order for them to use runes again.

But for you it is different, you can use runes for as long as your brain can handle the activation process, this is because the runes in your heart replenishes any magical energy that you used immediately, helping you solve the problem of replenishing your magical energy or continue practicing to increase your magic capacity.

But that is not all, the runic lines responsible for the replenishment of your magical energy is taking less than one percent of the runes in your heart, meaning that more than 99 percent of the runes in your heart haven't become active and we don't know what they do until they are activated and we see what they do.

Despite all of these benefits all of this was done to you free of charge.

The system determined that if you had to buy the ability to use magic from its store, you would not have even bought it, due to its price being way too high for you to afford it within the century.

So it gave you the ability to use runes while not giving you any knowledge of how to use runes.

It means that although it is important for you to be able to use runes, it is not that urgent and the system wants you to learn it slowly as you discover more of their usefulness.]

Aron couldn't help but be impressed by her analyzing skills from the little information she had. Although he had thought about the reason why the system gave him the ability to use runes, he didn't think about it that deeply as he didn't see anything currently in need of him having runes other than protection.

"That is a very detailed explanation Nova, good job" Aron gave Nova a nod of approval, showing that he was really impressed by her explanation.

[Thank you Sir] Nova thanked Aron while making the simulation program remove her blushing to prevent Aron from seeing it.

"Now let's continue with my rune practice." Aron said and returned to his previous sitting place and sat crossed leg to continue his runic practice.

While Aron was practicing his runes Nova did nothing other than sitting quietly and watching Aron concentrate in his runic practice.

…..

2 days later in accelerated simulation universe time(ASUT).

"Sir, Henry is currently shaking your body calling you to have dinner" Nova immediately told Aron after he completed activating the light rune for the seventh time.

Aron was able to activate the rune in just 15 minutes this time around, thanks to his runic body. It was cutting down the activation time it takes to activate the rune by half of what it used to take him to cast the spell. This improvement was consistent every time he trained on the rune.

Initially, Aron had to spend sixteen hours to activate the spell, but his runic body cut it down to 8 hours by his next try.

It was followed by the time being reduced to 4 hours, then 2 hours, and eventually 1 hour. With more practice, he brought it down to half an hour and finally only 15 minutes on his last attempt.

"Okay " Aron stopped practicing his runes and got up, preparing himself to log out so that he can go and have dinner with his family.

"See you" Aron said as he passed through the Rashomon gate that Nova had summoned for him to enter and leave the universal simulation.

He needed to leave through the door and return to the normal virtual reality to be able to logout because the universal simulation was currently going through time acceleration so if he logged out within the simulation his consciousness would experience how having 5000 ping feels in real life.

[See you Sir] Nova answered Aron's goodbye as he went through the gate.

'Logout' Aron said in his mind to log out.

"Brother what is that?" Henry asked Aron after he took off his helmet.

"Oh this is a virtual reality helmet" Aron answered Henry's question as he stood from his makeshift bed holding the helmet then headed to the table to put it there.

"What is it for?" Henry asked another question wanting to know what it does.

"It is a simulation machine like in those games in movies" Aron explained it in a way for him to understand it easily.

"Can I try it?" Henry asked in excitement when he heard Aron's explanation.

"Yes but later, Now let's go and eat. Didn't you come to call for that?" Aron reminded Henry who was so excited from wanting to try the virtual gear that he forgot what he came for.

"Yes" Henry agreed to his words though slightly disappointed that he didn't get to try it.

With that they left the basement heading to the dining room for their dinner.

...

An hour later Aron returned to the basement by himself.

Henry seemed to have forgotten his excitement of wanting to try the headgear due to being told by his mother that, if he left his toys in random places without collecting them, she would confiscate all of his toys and not allow him to use them anymore.

[Welcome back Sir] Nova welcomed Aron the moment he entered the basement room.

"Thanks" Aron said as he put on the helmet and laid down on the makeshift bed and said 'Login'.

[Are you going to train on another spell or will you continue training on the light rune?]

"I will continue training on the light rune, because I want to see if there is a limit with the runic body's capability of decreasing the training time by half every time he repeatedly trains the same rune" Aron said while sitting down so that he can continue his practice.

[Okay] Nova said nothing after that and left Aron to continue his practice of the spell.

…..

3 days later in accelerated simulation universe time(ASUT)

Aron stretched his hand forward and said "Light"

The moment he finished saying those words, runic letters representing the function of light appeared in front of his hand and brightened a little before it stopped, then it was followed by runic words lighting up and releasing a soft golden light hovering in front of Aron.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ While it appeared to take a long time for the rune to activate, in reality, it only took a nanosecond from the moment Aron commanded the rune to activate and the actual activation of the rune.

Aron kept staring at the soft light caused by his runic activation feeling proud of himself.

"It took longer than expected," Aron said about the time it took him to perfect the use of the rune.

Although he managed to reduce the activation time of the runes to nanoseconds, he still had to practice on controlling the right amount of magical energy so that the rune didn't blind him.

[ Although your runic body gives you perfect control of the magical energy, you still needed to find the perfect amount magic for every rune to avoid wasting magical energy where it is not needed ]

"Yeah you are right about that, this is also one of the reasons I didn't practice it in the outside world" Aron agreed with Nova as he remembered the time when he activated the rune immediately but since he gave it too much magical energy and the rune came out brighter than the sun.

The problem was not its brightness but its proximity to his eyes, he had to ask Nova to reverse the damage done to his eyes using her powers within the simulation or else he would have been blinded forever within the simulation.

"Let me try using the rune in the real world first" Aron said to Nova and immediately went through the gate and logged out to try activating the runes in the real world.

Real world.

Aron went and locked the door leading to the basement, so that he wouldn't freak anyone who might accidentally see.

After he turned off the lights in the basement he said "activate" while envisioning the rune of light in his mind.

And just like 'magic', a soft glowing light lit up the room in a golden glow allowing him to see everything within the room.

[Wow] Nova's voice was heard through the speakers as she was viewing everything through the cameras within the room.

"What do you see?" Aron asked Nova, wanting to know what parts of the rune are seen in the real world.

[I saw nothing other than a soft golden light appearing out of nowhere lighting the room in golden glow]

"It seems my assumption was right. Normal people in the world won't be able to see the cause, they will only see the results coming from it"

[Yes sir, this will allow you flexibility in using runes anywhere]contemporary romance

"Mh…" Aron nodded his head agreeing to what Nova said.

[Sir, you need to start preparing for your meeting with Rina.] Nova immediately reminded him about the meeting he had with Rina.

"Thank, I'm really going to have to find a way to get used to the time acceleration or else I will be having troubles keeping up with time and appointments." Aron said that, as he had spent a total of five days within the simulation despite only one day having passed in the real world.

[Don't worry Sir, I will be reminding you if you forget anything] Nova said to Aron who was massaging his eyebrows.

"Thanks Nova" Aron said to Nova after he heard her saying that.

Aron then deactivated the rune in the basement then turned on the lights in the basement.

"I will go and prepare for the meeting" Aron said as he left the basement room going up stairs to eat breakfast and prepare for his meeting with Rina.
