Getting a Technology System in Modern Day

Chapter 68 Discovering Henry's Ability.



Meanwhile in Aron's house.

Henry who had returned from school started getting bored from playing with his toys.

So, he started thinking about things that he could do to alleviate his boredom. That's when he remembered that his brother had a virtual reality headgear.

"Let's go and see what it does" With enthusiasm he stood and started heading to the basement with fast steps as he couldn't wait to try it.

From what his brother told him It was the same as those in movies so he should be able to play games that are similar to the ones in movies.

After he finally entered the room he found the headgear on the table where his brother usually keeps it when he is not using it.

Without wasting even a second he put it on and remembering what the people from the movies said to start using it, he said "login".

After waiting for a few seconds nothing happened. So, he just removed the headgear and put it back on the same place he found it while being extremely disappointed.

'It is either I don't know how to use it or my brother was playing with me' Is what came to his mind. At the moment he was leaning toward the first assumption that he doesn't know how to use it.

This was caused by him trusting his brother after he kept every promise he gave to him.

Since his plan had failed and he had nothing else to do in the basement, he decided to go and play with his brother's PlayStation, as his was still being confiscated by her mother after he was caught playing games when he was supposed to be sleeping.

….

While all this was happening, Nova was just watching everything unfold through the cameras in the room without interfering.

After Henry entered the room she started monitoring his every action so that she could report to Aron if something bad happened.

When he put on the VR headgear she thought nothing would happen since Aron hasn't shown him how to activate it.

But all of her assumptions were thrown out of the window, when she heard Henry say "Login" which forced her to intervene and cancel the activation sequence to prevent Henry from hurting himself.

She had to intervene due to Henry still being in a standing position when he initiated the login sequence, which would have resulted in him being hurt by falling down due to the loss of consciousness.

But other than Henry's login into the virtual world being interfered with and canceled by her, everything before that had already been completed before she could intervene and cancel the login attempt.

This meant that Henry's brain was already mapped and everything about it being recorded and saved by the virtual reality program as per its protocols.

And since his brain didn't have a system to prevent it like Aron, nothing remained hidden from Nova who had access to all of the data collected by the VR headgear.

So, she started analyzing Henry's brain out of curiosity to see if there is anything special in him like his brother.

And there it was, Henry's eye nerves were glowing golden. The golden glow was similar to Aron's golden blood but Henry's was not blood; it was occurring only on his eye nerves and the location in the brain where the brain interpreted what his was seeing.

When she discovered this, she decided to find out what Henry sees as the result of his nerves glowing golden.

When she took the POV of Henry's eyes and started simulating different thing Infront of them, she discovered that henry had eyes that allowed him if he paid enough attention to see most of the things normal humans can't see, this included magical energy in the atmosphere.

The result of him paying enough attention is his irises turning golden allowing him to see unseen within his vicinity.

One of the occasions where Henry saw the unseen is when he saw his brother's room after he was shot.

It appeared to him that there was a golden liquid mixed with normal blood on the floor, But when he asked his mother about it, she said there was no such thing as she had helped clean the blood and saw nothing like that.

After reading through some of the memories Nova started looking for the trigger that caused this evolution.

And she found it. It was the day Aron entered a deep slumber which resulted in his body gaining golden blood and blood vessels that would later be merged for him to gain Runic body.

The trigger for the evolution was the high concentration of magical energy within a small space, causing his eyes to be overloaded with magical energy resulting in a forced evolution to avoid going blind.

But this doesn't mean that if you put someone in a room with high magical energy concentration that they will evolve. No, the chances are very small and that's one of the reasons Aron's system did not inform him about it.

This evolution was everything but normal, his body's reaction was way too excessive for it to be caused by just magical energy overload. Something else must have helped or interfered to push for this specific outcome.

She decided to inform Aron when he came back home, but she still continued with her investigation looking for what caused Henry's eyes to evolve.

...….

Later that day

Aron finally returned back home at night after he finished his tour of the museum and headed immediately for the basement after having dinner with his parents. Henry seemed to have been found sleeping while playing a game in his room resulting in him not being on the dinner table to eat with them.

[Welcome Sir] Nova welcomed him after he entered the basement.

"Thanks', anything new?" He asked after he thanked Nova while putting on his virtual helmet and laying down on his makeshift bed.

[Yes ] Nova immediately replied his question when she came face to face with him in virtual reality.

"What is it?"

[Henry seemed to have evolved]

"WHAT?, what do you mean by evolve?." he asked in panic, Showing that he was pretty scared by the news.

[Don't worry Sir, it's nothing dangerous.] Nova replied, trying to calm Aron down.

"Elaborate" Is the only word he said followed by him shutting up waiting for explanation.

[So here is what happened.....

Herny entered the baseme....

.....] Nova now started explaining everything to Aron while using both his memories and Henry's as a presentation materials to ensure that nothing is left out.

"Hhoooooh..... Thank god" Aron released a sigh of relief after Nova finished explaining everything and reassuring him.

"So, you're telling me that my brother can see magical energy and anything to do with magic?"

[Yes but that is not all, from my simulation of his abilities he can see more than just magic, he should be able to adjust the spectrum of light that his eyes collects allowing him to see even at night without difficulty.

But that is not all, he should be able to see supernatural entities and many more.

And if you become proficient in your runic abilities and turn him into a runic user they will evolve even more, I suspect that he will gain special body that has its focus on eyes or something similar to that. ]

"So you're telling me that my brother can see ghosts and other entities."

[Currently his brain can't handle the influx of information resulting on all the features being kept inactive by his subconsciousness to prevent him harming himself.

As for the ability to see magical energy, he can only keep it active for a few seconds at most before he runs out of mental energy to supply them.]

"Thank god. Just imagine him having to see ghosts and other supernatural things while he is still young, there is no amount of therapy that would fix that damage" Aron said while being relieved that his brother was not yet traumatized by his abilities.

"Keep an eye on him and continue to test the limit of his abilities."

[Yes Sir.]

"Now back to practicing runes." Aron said this as he started moving to the Rashomon gate in order to enter the accelerated universal simulation to continue his runic practice.

[What rune are you going to practice this time?] Nova asked Aron as she followed and tried to keep up her pace with his.

When Aron turned around and discovered that she was having hard time keeping up with him, he slowed his pace down, then answered her question.

"I need something to protect myself. So, this time I will be practicing a protection rune."

[Is it the shield rune?] Rina asked as she finally reached Aron and started walking shoulder to shoulder with him as they went through the gate.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Yes, Although I have bodyguards to protect me, I need something to ensure my safety even when I'm left alone."

After passing through the gate and entering the accelerated universal simulation, he immediately sat down crossed legged and started to concentrate in order to begin his runic practice.

And just like his first time training runes the runic lines in his synapses lit up and started guiding him to the right path.

After 8 hours of non-stop concentration he extended his hand to his front and said

"SHIELD"
