《A Beautiful Woman of Science and Other Absurdities》Chapter 49
Advertisement
Case Carswell, founder and leader of the secret society he named “The Order of One Justice,” sat in his “office” hidden somewhere beyond the borders of the UEN with his armed bodyguard never far from him. Case’s office was not really an office in the typical sense of the word with four walls, a window and a desk. No, in fact, his “office” looked like a courtroom with a raised bench for the judge, two long tables in front of the bench for the prosecution and defense attorneys, a jury box for twelve jurors and a gallery in the back for the public. It was not difficult to guess, then, that Case thought of himself as the judge, so he wore a black robe and occupied the bench as his “desk”. His bodyguard acted as bailiff and sat off to the side of the bench.
A “court clerk” arrived in Case’s courtroom with a disk in his hand. “Your honor, please have a look at the data that was collected by our hackers. I think you will be highly interested.” The clerk handed the disk over to Case who inserted it into a computer terminal sitting on his desk.
“Thank you,” said Case to the Clerk, “You may be dismissed.”
Case looked at the screen of his terminal while the data on the disk was displayed one page at a time. As he absorbed the data scrolling by, Case saw something that grabbed his attention and he leaned forward to get a closer look. An evil grin crept across his face as he realized the value of the data now in his possession. He slapped his hand on the table with a loud clap on wood.
“This is fantastic! These are all the log files and archives from the UEN’s laboratory Transportal. All the experiments run and data gathered are recorded here. All the secrets of Leandre Renard are here and more! Do you understand what this means, Dillon?”

Case was asking his bailiff, Dillon, who was busy cleaning his finger nails. “What does it mean, your honor?”
“It means the power of teleportation is ours!” gloated Case. “Quickly, we must get this data to our scientists so they reverse engineer these datasets. It’s only a matter of time before we will be able to achieve 99.999999999% teleportation accuracy and challenge the UEN’s monopoly on Transportals which only serve their interests.”
“Is that your final ruling, your honor?” Dillon wanted be sure.
“Yes, it is my final ruling,” confirmed Case.

Fateful
Edgar Vogel was a 30 year old underemployed veteran who dropped out of college. His life was comfortable but all ambition was lost. His plans, born of depression and anxiety, were to simply live out his life of mediocrity and enjoy what little he could. That all changed, all it takes is something small to change fate, in his case ice. Reborn into a primitive but fantastical world, full of magic and monsters, he may make something of himself. Oh and there's a massive war against werewolf hordes on the mainland. Edgar, now Jon, has a second chance at life. His previous life was reduced to fragments of technical knowledge that come to him in the form of visions. His new home, the Northern Isles, is far removed from the conflict of the mainland for now as he lives in the quiet frontier village of Terra. His new family believes that fate can be changed and destiny overruled but he has no idea. Whether that's true or not, being told by a crazy old lady that his fate starts with him sitting by a rock in the middle of a field seems wrong, but who knows? Maybe she's right but what's the bit about 'await the bite' supposed to mean? Jon soon learns and his life changes forever. What can a young boy who's gained wolven-blood do? Will he be a monster or will he find salvation? Jon was bitten. ********************************************************************************** Welcome to the Northern Isles. My first story posted on here! I already have the outline of the first couple of books planned out and will be posting a new chapter every Tuesday and Friday. The story will be dark at times but I intend to keep things fairly light when I can. I'm aiming for a world that isn't full of sunshine and rainbows but isn't as bleak as it could be. Focusing on friendship, camaraderie, sh*t talking, and adventure.
