*[Setting up secure connection…]

*[Connecting to satellite…]

*[Connection confirmed…]

The drive that Davies had plugged into the holographic supercomputer had only one function. It set up a connection between whatever it was plugged into and one of Davies's satellites that held all of Davies's technological projects; both the ones already completed and the ones that he was still working on creating.

There was no way he was going to be stupid enough to leave any of his work anywhere on the planet of Leivandage, so he kept it hidden in space inside a heavily fortified satellite with the best stealth technology and added a specially created mana bomb that was filled with explosive volcanic mana as a last resort.

There were too many people after his technology after all, so he needed at least this many safety measures… or maybe it was a little bit of an overkill.

[Good Morning, Mr. Lake]

[How may I assist you?] A womanly voice came through hidden speakers in the room and a hologram of a blue-haired woman in a lab coat with glasses appeared in the room.

She was Davies's specially created lab assistant A.I. code-named, "Aida".

It was no exaggeration to say she was the most developed A.I. in the world of Leivandage as there were no other races that were as technologically inclined as the humans among all the races on Leivandage and among the humans, Davies was the greatest technological mind ever known.

Yet even for Davies, it took him over five years to create Aida.

One had to know that it took Davies less than a day to create the first power stone engine when he was just eight years old.

He built her with processing power that surpassed any known supercomputer by at least a thousand times and made her able to interact with humans at a level that one would never think that she was an A.I.

He was even able to successfully simulate and create emotions and added them to her program, but he never activated it, he didn't want any robot apocalypse occurring because of him, so till now she was still an unfinished product.

What he had in mind when he was creating her, was to also create a body for her and create the first perfectly functioning artificial human, but due to the unknown variable known as "what happens when you give a robot emotions," he paused her creation halfway and stopped with her just being his A.I. lab assistant.

Aida did anything and everything that Davies would ever need when he was working… except physical things as she didn't have a physical body.

"Pull up the last project that I was working on," Davies instructed as he stood looking at the holographic screen.

"Okay,"

"Opening project file, "Law of the Human Jungle"," Aida replied, and a file opened up on the holographic screen.

"Not this one, I guess it was not the last one," he interjected and then gave a new order,

"Uh open, project file "Words make up the world"," he said to Friday.

"Order confirmed,"

"Opening Project File, "Words make up the world"," Aida said and another file popped up on the holographic screen.

The project named "Words Make up the World," was one of Davies's most worked-on, and top-secret projects, he had been working on it for over eight years and he was finally almost done with it. It was the holy grail when it came to magical technologies and was going to help his future endeavors a lot when he completed it.

It was also one of the ideas he did not plan to sell for money due to how dangerous it was to him if he wasn't the one using it.

"Password required," Aida stated as she looked toward Davies.

"8 inches," Davies replied, stating his password.

"Password confirmed," Aida said, and the file opened up on the holographic screen.

"Come here Aida," he said and cracked his knuckles before making a huge wave of his hand over the holographic screen, causing a keyboard to appear on the surface of the holographic supercomputer.

Aida went over to stand beside him as he began working, his hands dancing back and forth over the keyboard, constantly switching between typing something and then controlling the holographic models while often asking Aida for the answers to some calculations.

***8 hours later***

*DING* came the sound of the elevator as it reached the first floor,

The doors slowly opened up and Davies walked out while rubbing his sore neck. He had been working for the past eight hours without a single break and now he was pretty tired and hungry.

Unfortunately, he still had to drive himself as Daniel was still out of commission. He paid no attention to any of the looks he was getting as he walked through the lobby.

It was to be expected after all, he had killed someone earlier in the day, and the word of it must have spread by now… but people would probably be finding it hard to believe that he had done so in "self-defense".

Yet he didn't care, this was why he had made sure to slip narcotics into "whatever his name was" suit and arranged to have more planted somewhere in his house.

It'd definitely be a shock to many people when news got out that a high-ranking official of Imperium Technologies had tons of narcotics hidden somewhere in his house.

It would also serve as a cover for the people that would end up dying tonight, as people would think that whoever was the "mastermind" of the organization that dealt the drugs was trying to take care of loose ends now that their "operation" had been "compromised" through Vincent going mad.

At the end of it all, Davies would end up without any suspicions and may even be thought of as a hero that had helped to crack down on a "devious organization" … at least this was what the general population would think, but the ones being targeted knew better and their fear of him would become even greater.

Though Davies didn't fancy being thought of as a hero, it was better than having to deal with annoying issues.
