Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology - Chapter 156

>>My request is not something you are concerned or worried about. When the time comes. I will need you to do something for me. Though it may be dangerous. With enough preparation, you wouldn’t lose your life. Besides, whatever I ask you to do will surely benefit you. what do you think?

Emma took a couple of seconds to think about this. Though he didn’t know what he was venturing into. He knew it would be bad. Surely, it may be dangerous. However, everyday life is full of danger. And he didn’t know where he would venture in the future. But one thing is for sure. It would be a walk in the park. So he was ready for the challenge.

‘I agree.’

>>Good let the challenge begin. Don’t come crying to me when you lose this challenge nor when you realize the difficulty of the mission that I’m going to give to you in the future.

‘Bring it on. This Grandpa is ready for anything.’ Emma slapped his chest twice and raised his neck, forming an angle ninety. “I live if you’re not tested. How would you know how strong you are? I, Emma, never for once waver from a challenge. Heaven can bear witness, nothing can move this mountain. However, the jealousy of people around me and the heaven itself saddens my heart.” He sighed, shaking his head slightly with a melancholy stare.

Seeing this, Lily wanted to slap some senses into this shameless brat. But she could only look as he performed his act of shamelessness. Though she was a narcissist, she began to accept that she couldn’t compare to Emma. His shamelessness has no bound. However, that didn’t stop her from pouring salt on Emma’s injury.

>>Tsk. Heaven and People jealous about your talent you say? Please don’t make me laugh with your shenanigans. If heaven is jealous of your talent. Then what about those heavenly beings? Forget about those freaks. Let’s talk about the person you know. Wata. Did you know how great he is? Hmm? Stinky brat. You have to conquer a mere backward city and begin to think that heaven is jealous of you. Seriously.

‘What! You think I’m making a mouth. huh. Because you are yet to see how talented and awesome I am, it doesn’t make me less talented. You just watch and see. I will make you reconsider your words for soiling my mighty name and begging me for mercy.

>>Really!. I can’t wait to see how you make me reconsider my words and make me apologize for soiling your magnificent name. Lily said in disdain

Emma didn’t bother to banter with Lily again. He concentrated on the book and studied seriously. However, the short conversation between them still echoed in his mind. After thinking about it for a couple of minutes, he vowed in his heart to make Lily beg him for mercy. But first, he needed to study the footstep of Wata and deduced some knowledge not recorded in the introduction to basic rune creation.

As time went on, Emma had to close his mouth and open it a couple of times whilst the continuous gasps escaped from it subconsciously. Now, he began to doubt his nonsense earlier. The next couple of chapters illustrates Wata’s high level of thinking process, dedication, and discovery. ‘How could such a man exist?’ he murmured.

It only took 10 years for Wata to find better resources after countless hours of research and study to create a new inscription from the old ones and develop a better rune pen. This wasn’t even enough, he began to spread the knowledge of rune while he began the campaign against his race invader.

With no teacher and little knowledge, he became a rank two runesmith while his people began to recover their lost city one after the others. Emma studies how Wata inferred new runes from old ones and how he created a rank one rune pen from scratch. Also, he developed a way to increase their mental space.

Emma’s breathing was slow, his eyes fixed on the book without blinking. He studied the hypothesis, diagram, and the conclusion of Wata and his jaw dropped for a couple of seconds. ‘How can someone reason in such a bizarre way.’ He cried in his heart.

After four hours, Emma had concluded reading the journal. The betrayal from his disciple while he also had to deal with his people’s scheming mind. He was on the run for a couple of years. But this doesn’t disrupt him from research. Emma had to give Wata. He is insane about knowledge and research. How can someone like that be sane? He doubted his sanity. And the last part of the journal didn’t mention whether Wata was dead or alive. However, it only mentions he was old and barely came to the open while living in the mountain.

Emma thought about it for another hour and sighed for the umpteenth time. “I have a long way to go. ” He looked at the book in his hand, his pupil dimmed for a slight second. But the expression disappeared instantly. He gripped the book tightly and his eyes shone like a raging sun. “No matter what Wata did. Wata is Wata. And I am who I am. My legacy will be unrivaled.” He shouted and his voice echoed in the quiet room. The peaceful breeze suddenly blew strongly, shaking the shelves slightly.

>>Stop making mouths and let’s see your result.

‘Just wait and see.’

Now, since he had read about rune creation and Wata journal. He had developed so many ways to create a rune pen and how he would apply the runes. But first, he needed to do something. He returned all the materials to their box. He paused and looked at the horizon. After a few seconds, that looks like forever. Emma picked his weapon and called Zeus.

“Zeus, get me those three.” His voice was flat with no emotion.

[[On it.]]

Shortly, three people rushed into the room, looking at Emma with confusion. However, Emma was already covering his head with the helmet, making those three not see his icy expression. Without further ado, Emma’s voice echoed in the room. But when the three heard the emotionless voice of the commander. They straightened their backs and looked at him with seriousness.

“I will give each of you a weapon, and this will be your weapon from this moment onward.” He opened a box and brought three swords. He gave it to the three while the three looked at him, confused. They looked at each other with the corner of their eyes but kept their mouths shut.

“I know each of you has sword training, so use it well.” He looked straight into the eyes of the three. “Do you have any questions?”

The three took a moment to process what just happened before Laka talked. “Sir, why did you give such a weapon?” he looked straight at the helmet, carrying the sword with both hands.

“Do you think it is meaningless for me to give you such a weapon? hmm?” Emma’s voice dropped by another octave, causing Laka to sweat inward.

“Sir, it’s not that it’s meaningless. However, in the presence of our rifle. This type of weapon has become redundant.” Jojo added.

“Do you think if we have a close combat weapon, our loss against the Kpriv will be that high?”

“We can’t say. But can this weapon be of any help than those weapons? Not that I am questioning your authority. But explosives are almost useless to those beasts. Whilst the weapons we use are not just common rifles. So….” Maya added not looking at Emma’s face.

“I get what you mean.” Emma raised his hand. “Because you don’t have the capability of a weapon doesn’t mean it has no uses. I created those rifles and explosives. You should know, I won’t give you anything less than that If I expect you to perform your duty efficiently. However, talk is meaningless. Follow me.” With that, Emma walked out of the room with a large step.

At the back of the gigantic 10-story building was a plane field. Murmurs and gossip reverberated from the field. At the center of the field was a young man in blue with a silver spear erected beside him. No one knew what was going on, but the presence of three people surrounding the commander gave them the idea of what was about to happen.

But why!?

No one knows.

“Are you ready?” Emma’s voice was not loud but it reverberated throughout the field. He looked from Maya to Laka then to Jojo. “If your weapon can touch the hem of my cloth. You won and I promise you something huge. However, if you don’t surrender to your loss. The fight continues. Do you understand!?”

“Yes.” The three choruses.

“Let begin”

Without further ado, Laka pounced on Emma fiercely. Since the commander will not use his strength and strange movement skills. Then this battle had already been won by them. Laka was already thinking of what to do with the command promise. The darkish sword hum slightly, generating a powerful force, going straight for Emma’s neck.

Seeing this, everyone was surprised by the Laka quick swordplay. No one had seen such an extreme fast sword in their lives. However, the people only think about it for a moment when their attention returns to their commander. Waiting for how their commander would retaliate to the dangerous sword attack. Meanwhile, Emma only stood straight with his spear. When the sword was a couple of inches from his neck.. Something happened.
