《World tag#001》Chapter017

The roof of the structure gave off the same white light of the room's ceiling I was in before. Sure is was vastly more powerful, but the cold hue and the way it was uniform was the same.

When I was at maybe the same height of a five-storey building, and almost dead-center on the roof, I felt like passing through a membrane. At the same time of the the break through sensation, I regained my mobility and my landing speed slowed even more than before.

- So it seems in the end I will not have to try to mimic the safe landing technique I remember from videos...

The moment my feet touched the surface, quite cold actually, of the roof the light disappeared except for six circles. One was under myself and the other five were in front of me in a semi-circle formation.

From the five circle of light five square pillar-like thing grew out of them. The light was to strong to see all the details but it became much more weaker at the time the five "obelisk" stopped growing out of the roof. I call them obelisk because, with the much more acceptable light, I was able to see their surface was full of engraving that resembled a circuit board more than language.

When the light under the central, and taller, obelisk started flashing lightly a voice come out of it.

- Welcome to Imlaren traveler, we were waiting for you since our creation, and finally as predicted you have come... Why are you in dismay o' mighty traveler?

- It's called face-palming and I'm doing it because of this whole situation... Really?! Now you go all lore-master on me after three days like that?! And even the voice is different I have a strong feeling we chatted before, haven't we?

- You really continue to smash all of my expectations, from your data I assumed you would like a more "classic" approach now that your new life beginning.

- You really got smarter but not quite there are you? Like I said before you should have this approach from the start if you want me to listen to... Wait a minute... What's the "now" new life, bit about?

- You accepted all of this crossing that door, so this is your new life now. Congratulation?!

With my right eyelid twitching uncontrollably I sat down to fight the increasing desperation and rage, strange mix I know...

- What the @#%& you mean I accepted?! When do you piece of £$?*# asked me anything?! An you can take your congratulation and...

- To think you're so lively even now is comforting you know? But if you want to file questions about the selecting and activating criteria, I believe you will have no more luck than me contacting the Creators.

- Why you continue to casually drop bombshell like this when I'm already full on the verge of exploding?! Wait... Do you say this thing believing I will not listen and remember? You son of a microchip...

- Where that came from?

- Well seeing the pattern on the obelisk coupled to the synthetic-voice, it came naturally... Don't try to derail the conversation and answer me.

- To answer your question the system not only select a free matrix, after searching for pre-set parameters, but also test it's compatibility with #001, or Imlaren if you want to use the local name. To fail the test you needed only to resist the implanted compulsion and do nothing productive until the end of it.

- So you really messed with my mind... What about the Creators part?

- ... ... To put is simply I'm "only" #001 manager, I'm in charge of all the new matrixes but I've otherwise limited power. I lie dormant until activation and you're the first that the system selected since the beginning. So when I started the processing I tried to contact the Creators but no answer came.

- Let me guess, all te time when you "disappeared" you were trying to contact them?

- Yes exactly, I'm supposed to evolve with each external interaction, but having only you as a sample brought unexpected reaction. Like repeatedly trying to contact every single free moment.

- Welcome to the anxiety club... I'm inclined to consider us even if I really gave you an imprint of my reaction and emotion... So what I'm supposed to do now?
