《The Awakened World》Vol. 2, Ch. 28 : An Alternate Perspective: The Hyper Spider
Advertisement
I hang up after receiving the news of Alice's new magic type. I gaze over the now cleaned up lot of Faulken's Institute, a flat landscape that shows no sign of any past events, erased completely.
I head back to my penthouse where the rest of my family is. Thomas left already and abandoned me to deal with the cleanup crew. He avoided the responsibility by saying Nora and Aria needed something, but that's a complete lie.
I walk inside to see Nora and Thomas playing each other on some kart racing game. It's kind of funny to see their bodies sway.
"I got a call from Alice." I tell Thomas, he replies while keeping his eyes on the screen. "Lessons are still on tomorrow, or did she get radiation poisoning again?" I give a sigh. "Close. She figured out environmental meditation which somehow ended up with her unlocking Radiation Magic and getting Radiation Resistance to medium." This gets him to freeze up which leaves Nora to win. He ignores her victory dance and turns to me. "That's not good. Well, it's good and bad. We need to figure out a way to raise her resistance safely ‘cause that magic is powerful. And dangerous." He starts brooding. Nora has already exhausted herself, but she seems to be listening in. "Doesn't the sun do some kind of, uh, radish? She can just lay in the sun to become i-immune." She adorably tilts her head.
Thomas ruffles her hair and I sit down next to Nora with Thomas on the other side of her. Thomas speaks up saying, "Well, yes, but if she gets her Radiation Resistance acts as partial resistance to all types of radiation. Multiple types means multiple resistances which makes immunity harder. There's only one common type of sleep which means that a maximum resistance can evolve directly to immunity. But a maximum resistance to radiation is needed to gain a minimum radiation resistance of a specific type. So, the sun releases multiple types, but the one we need can't get to us, so she would end up with like Ultraviolet resistance. To get immunity would require maximum resistance to all." He keeps ranting, but I can tell by Nora's drool that he lost her long ago.

"Sweetie," I gently guide her head towards me, "It's like the ability to eat all pies, and then training to eat specific types of pie." My analogy gets through to her as she lights up. You see, this is why I work as a teacher in the school year. Oh. I should probably mention that to Alice sometime. Oh well. I'll just add it to the list of things I need to explain that she is obviously just brushing off.
Aria comes up behind us in her android body. "I'll put Nora to bed. You both have things you need to discuss." She takes Nora by the hand and leads her to the bathroom. "Okay. But, one thing. Aria, why are you wearing a maid uniform?" Thomas stares at the wall as he asks this. "Mmm, I think it suits me." She twirls a little. "I think it looks nice." I comment on the dress, and I do have to agree. It definitely suits her. "It's just seems strange that I agree so as well." Thomas keeps staring into space.
They both leave.
"Well, what now? Radiation seems to be getting everywhere we seem to go." I fill a mug with hot chocolate using portals. He gives a long sigh. "I'll continue with my lesson plans tomorrow on spells and the types. Uh, you should probably still do the patrol job for a while, stay out of the dungeon as we still need to clear the radioactive material." He shifts in his seat a little. "I…have an idea on where we can get large amounts of gamma radiation, but we'll need to portable med bay." I reply, "I think we'll need that no matter what. Even if she doesn't have basic healing magic yet, I don't think it can clear radiation until level ten, I think?"

"Yeah," he agrees, "Plus Aria and I are still working on our million other projects." I bundle myself in a blanket near the couch. "You both work yourselves too much." He gives a small chuckle. "Well, you piss off your boss too much." I chuckle as well.
We enjoy each other's company deep into the night. Though nothing sexual occurs.

The Shattered Universe Saga - Deus Vult Alpha from Omega
This is book one. Rick West, a wounded Marine with a very unique past is transported, with a significant portion of Earth's population, to a new universe. One that is shattered and yet to coalesce under a divine law. This is the story of a military man who begins the saga immature, rough, careless of other’s feelings. A young man whose focus is on getting laid, fighting, and winning at every turn, regardless of cost. He gets caught up in a strange occurrence, along with a billion others, and finds himself in an oddly familiar place where life is lived as a timed-event role-playing game. He discovers that within the shattered universe he is a Mystic Player, a Marshal, a figure of power, potential, and probability. If he wins, he may even able to wrestle unto himself the very throne of heaven. Rick starts to build his Pantheon with his most trusted companions, friends, family, and a harem of strong and talented women. He faces challenges within himself and others, and also must lead his faction into battle with men and monsters. As Rick and his companions progress through the adventure games within the pocket universe, he develops a greater understanding of his humanity and the qualities of what makes each of us uniquely valuable. He grows mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, without really noticing how he is leaving his old existence behind. Striving against him for truly ultimate power are a thousand others with the same potential, the same possibilities. All are aligned on the spectrum from the brightest of minds, the lightest of hearts, to the darkest of souls. All Mystic Players, be they Monster or Marshal, share one characteristic. They thrive in chaos. And a shattered universe is a universe in chaos. At the end of the Saga, will the winner be someone worthy of emulation and even, if it were appropriate, of worship as an exemplar of divinity. Will the title granted to the Final Victor be EXEMPLAR, or will the title be DESPOILER? That is the question.
