Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Without looking at her. "Yeah, I understand what you mean. And I sincerely appreciate your frankness. If you had done otherwise…. Then I will have a second thought about you."

>>You\'re something. 

\'What something?\'

>>Something else. I don\'t understand you at all.

\'Why would you understand me? I\'m dynamic. Don\'t you like it… Oh, I get… You want someone you can read like a book, right?\'

>>Speechless.

>>Why would I want someone that I could read like a book? But…. you\'re not just normal.

\'Sorry for your loss.\'

Hearing this, stupefied Amanda. Now, she knew, it was difficult to deals with Emma. He had a different train of thought, making it almost quite impossible to guess what he\'s thinking. Emma did not know what Amanda was thinking. Though if he knew, he would only laugh. Turning his head. "I guess we need to take it one step at a time." He smiled.

Amanda nodded subconsciously. She had nothing to say. After looking at Amanda\'s face for a few seconds, his face turned serious.

"We are growing every day and more people would join us. And many unforeseen circumstances would happen. But…" He paused, waiting for Amanda to understand his train of thought. Seeing that she is following. He continued. "Everyone in my company needs to sign a confidential contract."

Amanda to a deep breath. When did a date turn into this? She rested her back on the steel frame of the boat. "When will I sign mine?"

"Won\'t you ask what type of contract?" Emma puzzled.

"Since you said it, confidentiality contract. I have nothing to worry about. Unless you have something hidden, you don\'t want to tell me." She raised her brow.

Emma shook his head.

"So why would I care? Though the motion of contract took me by surprise at first. But I understand your point of view. So, I have nothing again it."

"Good. But this contract is not a normal contract"

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is….. it would have to be implanted into your brain." He looked straight into her eyes.

What!

Amanda\'s jaw dropped as her eyes widened. She looked at Emma for a few seconds before closing her mouth slowly. She took a deep breath. "Tell me you\'re kidding."

Emma smiled wryly. "Will I use such a thing as a joke?" He shook his head.

"Do you want to turn me into a fucking freaking robot or what?"

"Listen." He brought his phone from his pocket and show the contract to her." This is the contract. But the reason why I need it implanted into your brain is to prevent members from breaking the contract at my back."

Amanda skimmed through the contract without uttering a word. Emma waited patiently for her to digest the info. After a couple of seconds, Amanda inhaled deeply. "So, this a kind of prevention mechanism for betrayal right."

"Yep," he nodded.

"For me to continue working for you…. I need a chip in my brain… huh."

"Something like a chip, but not a chip. It kind of fluid substances."

"You are scared of betrayal, right?"

Emma nodded. "The higher you go. The easier for you to fall. And those that can fall you down, are someone close to you."

Amanda furrowed, opening her mouth to talk, but Emma interrupted her. "Don\'t get me wrong. It doesn\'t mean I don\'t trust you…. Not completely though… But you understand the way of the world, right. People may be kidnapped and force them using whatever method to spill the beans. But with this, it saves them and the company."

Amanda had nothing to say. She perfectly understood Emma. She and family were also a victim of betrayal. And this was a common occurrence in the current world while everybody tried and raised their guard against it, using whatever method they could use. So, Emma using a contract is not a bad idea. Besides, Emma was lenient in the contract.

"Is there anyone that already sign this contract?"

"Yes. As a matter of fact. They\'re two people."

Huh.

"Which two?"

"You know them when you\'re ready to sign the contract."

Amanda looked into Emma\'s eyes for a few seconds, with various emotions flickering through her eyes. Seeing this, Emma informed her. "You can think about it as long as you like. I\'m not in a rush to hear your response."

She shook her head. "I\'ve already made my decision. I just hope I won\'t regret it."

"You won\'t"

"I will have to trust you on that."

"You can relax. I never break someone\'s trust. So…" His eyes brightened. 

"What do you expect! Of course! I\'m signing the contract. I\'ve already started the journey with you, don\'t expect me to turn back because of some contract. You need way more than to scare me."

Hearing this, Emma breathes a sigh of relief, relaxing on the boat\'s metal frame. "Thank God." He murmured.

"What."

"I thought you won\'t agree, and you know…" Emma walked toward the table and pick a wine, gulping in one motion.

"You know what…!"

"That would have broken my heart."

…

Inside the sanctuary, Emma looked at the data on the screen with seriousness. The feed was the current progress of the Starlight Genesis development. Every part of Vulture had the activity of Starlight Genesis.

It had been two days since Amanda and Emma went out on a date. If it may be called a date per se. However, the bond between them deepens. Also, yesterday Amanda got the implant of the contract.

Meanwhile, while Starlight Genesis was preparing the other powerhouse, not sleeping. They are also preparing but no one knew what was going on. Nevertheless, the people of Vulture City could feel the tension in the air.

The activity of the various gangs lessen while numerous shady deals almost stopped. This change surprise people. It had never happened before where there won\'t be a major fight or death in vulture. This would be first.

However, for the past couple of days, the change was obvious. This change frightened the people. They knew this was the calm before the storm. How strong the storm would be, no one knows?

>> Ding*

[You have a new mission]

[Mission Objective: Create a solid military base.]

[Time: 2 months.]

[Penalty: Hidden]

[Reward: Hidden]

>>Host, put in more effort.

The sudden notification wakes Emma from his thought. He looked at the notification for a few seconds and sigh. \'Things are moving too fast… What is the system hiding from me?\' He relaxed on the chair. The pressure became heavier every passing day. At the same time, Lily could feel Emma\'s tensed muscle, but she could do nothing about it. 

>>Relax. Just try your best. Everything will work out fine.

\'I know.\'

[[Sir, every old member of Terra World had chosen their Classes.]]

"Good. Now, it\'s time to take over Vulture." He exhaled. "Is there anyone worth recruiting from Terra World or not?"

[[There are few.]] 

At once, the data on the screen change and displays images of various people with their info. Seeing this, he thought for a few seconds. "Monitor them for the time being. If they didn\'t have any shady deal. I will know what to do with them." 

[[Ok sir.]]

"How many knights do we have?"

[[5000… with military experience.]]

Hmm…

Emma pursed his lips, tilting his head to the left side gently. "What about the previous 5 men that I fought together with me?"

[[They\'re chosen as well.]]

Emma nodded. \'I need to work with the knight first before others. Besides, I can let Arce and Jimena handle the Med Classes.\'

"Begin the knight Test."

[[On it.]]

Immediately, every member of Terra World with Knight Class received a call from their Link and Terra World appeared on their phone. They already know that Terra World was without the app.

The moment you accept to be a member of Terra World. The user\'s device operating system will be automatically upgraded. They can only enter Terra World by saying their unique security number and scanning their eyes.

But with the advent of Terra World on their phone without login in. Then, there occurs a major announcement or mission. Anyway, back to the knight member of Terra World. Every one of them left what they were doing and check the announcement in earnest. It puzzled people at this abrupt change at every corner of Vulture.

"Sorry class, the lecture for today ends here." A woman rushed out of the class before her student could voice their complaint.

"Robin, come and guard here. I need to do something urgently."

"Dad, get going. I\'ll meet ya."

Discovering the announcement was a test and their ranks, the blood of the knight\'s pumps, forgetting whatever and wherever they were, focusing on the test.

They couldn\'t be blamed, though. Every one of them knew the benefit of Terra World. Since they became part of Terra World, their life had never been the same.

Half an hour pass in a jiffy and the test was over. While you could see some people holding their devices tightly in anticipation while others are moving back and forth, glancing at their phones frequently.

Everyone who saw them looks at them, thinking something was wrong with them. However, these people never care.. They were currently waiting for their result.
