65 It Always Him!!

|First Pov Theodore|

I left a clone working on the game with Sophie and Mary. While it did that I took the time to check out last nights rewards.

I had planned to get an armoured car but who would have thought that the system would provide me with something I assume to be better than your average Armoured vehicle.

I'm now in my garage staring at the Orchid purple Mazda. The interior was primarily black with orchid purple being a secondary colour that helped emphasise the beautiful curves and lines.

Looking at the car I then take out a syringe filled to the brim with silver Nanobots.

Just like with the Space-Ink it comes from a universe where the power struggle is based on Nanites. In that universe, nanites are a form of peoples addictions and desires.

They are born in a select few of humans from birth. Depending on what you desire they turn into it or help with achieving that desire.

Nanites take on many forms the most basic type is the partial body strengthening type. An example of this is a famous runner from that world had a leg injury which ruined his career but he persisted with his training until his nanites kicked in which then healed his leg and boosted it.

Then there are none liner types like this one, it can live outside the body and turn a run-down car into an armoured vehicle.

Nanites are not completely technology-based as they have some aspect of magic in them that enables them to create things from their small bodies.

I pull my sleeve up inject the nanites into my bloodstream. Instantly felt something rush through my body and multiply exponentially.

I then place my hand on the car and see the sliver nanites crawl out from my skin, and cover it as if it was desperately trying to consume it.

Visually nothing had changed about the car but the internal structure has been remodelled on a microscopic level. The shell, windows and even tires had been reinforced to take heavy artillery.

Not only had it been reinforced it was amphibious, meaning that it was suitable for land and water. It also had a stealth mode that made it invisible and soundless.

'Perfect now I can drive without care' I thought happily before having the nanites crawl back into my body.

'It's weird to think that just four weeks ago I was having troubles like every other single dad and now I'm trying to protect myself from professional killers. Well, I'm not completely safe its time to upgrade some useful skills to Legendary'

"Hmm. . . . so I can upgrade up to four skills. Okay first upgrade Veterans Awareness"

As per usual I was attacked by a sudden pain around my head before the skill settled down. Before the upgrade, I could sense any ill intention within 1000 meters. Now I can sense up to 3000 meters and be able to locate blind spots to use as cover or lose as an escape route.

I took a moment to breathe before upgrading Detective Eye. After another an aching headache I got an additional ability added to the skill that initially let me see a hologram of a crime scene after finding some correlating evidence which was based on what I knew.

Now have an encyclopedia in my head that is automatically accessed whenever I'm near a crime scene. I'm a know it all Sherlock Holmes. This is dose leave me with having to acquire other knowledge as to not cause any suspicion when asked outside of a crime scene.

I try to upgrade breath of tranquillity but the system replied.

[Please note that the following skill "Breath Of Tranquility" can not be upgraded through points and can only reach Legend level through your efforts]

"Why?"

[A slow acceptance of your blood has no shortcut]

I got lost in those words feeling an explicable chill run down my back.

I ask "What do you mean by my blood?"

[Information on Beast Blood ..... ????]

[Task: ???????????]

Dissatisfied with the answer I reply "Urgh I thought you were different from the other systems,"

[I have no records of you coming in contact with another System]

"Sigh I was comparing you those seen novels. You should know it since you are supposedly a Universal Search Engine"

[I am a search engine, not an encyclopaedia. I simply find what the host is looking for and put a price on it]

"So you're kinda like a merchant? Okay what other skill should I promote. . . . At the moment the skill I most use is Speed Drawing and is the main contributing factor that gave such a wide range of fans"

A burning temperature began to radiate from my hands as the sounds of crackling electricity rushed through them. A callus could be seen where I normally hold my pencil.

The Legend Level version was more than I had expected. Just like the other skills it brought forth some new skill.

For instances, I had reached the hyper-realistic stage though it can't be said to be the best of those famed artists it's still impressive. Then you add ambidexterity which is the ability to use both hands equally well.

It's a useful skill on its own but since I have Parallel Thinking I can have my hands do different drawings simultaneously without any problems.

"Now for the last upgrade, this is gonna hurt a lot more"

Over these four weeks of acquiring skills, I've begun to develop an instinct for how much pain I will feel from certain skills.

When I think about upgrading Parallel Thinking I feel an intense chill freeze me over. Since parallel Thinking is directly tied to the reason for me becoming Stage 2 power user its safe to assume that my clones may have problems.

I quickly have the clone that's programming with Sophie and Mary give an excuse for leaving before having it disappear.

I then get in the back seat of my car and recline back until it was a bed.

Taking a deep breath and said "System upgrade Parallel Thinking"

I directly feel my body go limp, my body temperature falls drastically while my vision start's to blur and twist before everything went black.

"Ah shit. . . . . "

|Third Pov Bethany|

Living in a luxury mansion sat beautifully in Hidden Valley Estate's is Bethany Jones the ex-wife of Theodore Hunt.

Bethany was living her dream yet it wasn't enough. In the living room surrounded by destroyed furniture and ornaments, Bethany was on her knees whining.

On the T.V was Theodore's interview on loop. Joining Bethany in her difficult time was her blond personal assistant Laney and her dark hared Agent Heather.

Picking up another vase she through it on the ground and she screamed "WHY IS IT ALWAYS HIM!? I'M THE ONE WITH A HIT SHOW! WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT ME!? HE'S FUCKING EVERYWHERE!!"

"Mam I've invited your Therapist, Dr Pamela, over to help" Said Laney sincerely

"I'm not looking for emotional help you dumb blond. Heather where did you find this dumbass" Said Bethan in contempt

"You've fired 3 assistants this is the last one. And you've already done an interview it's just that Mr Hunt has more titles and fans than you. What we need to is increase your range of fans" Said Heather lazily

"Okay what do you have in mind" Said Bethany

"You're going to release a single. This song will be the turning point of your career. The company has already got the marketing team to prioritise it. And a stylist will be coming over to give a unique look that fits your fiery personality" Said Heather

"Good," Said Bethany while wiping her tears away

"Should I cancels your appointment with Dr Pamela?" Said Laney nervously

"No its fine I've skipped the last 2 appointments anyways. Thank you, Laney, can you two give me some space " Said Bethany

Laney and Heather hastily leave the room.

Bethany then stared up at the T.V that had Theodore's charming smile on display and said "I gave up everything for this so why am I the loser. Why am I just Bethany and your The New Generation Of Soul Music? It should be me smiling. I should be happy so WHY!?"

With a desperate cry for answers, she throws herself onto the couch and continues her child-like tantrum into the pillows.

. . . . . .

|Third Pov Theodore|

Forty minutes after upgrading his Parallel Thinking skill Theodore could finally feel his body again as his the dark space around him started lighten up gradually.

Little by little, he began to see to regain his conciseness. With a sudden jolt, he opened his eyes and sat up straight.

While panting he slaps his limbs making sure he still had control over his body.

During Theodore's unconscious state his brain and skull had been improved greatly. He could now absorb information and retain it without much thought. He wasn't just smart he was gifted.

"Well I guess I'm an intellectual now," Said Theodore with a smug smile

He had expected some improvement to his brain but not to the extent would make him a genius. H

He got out of the car and did some stretches. Seeing his body in tip-top shape he created 3 clones.

"Here goes nothing" With a thought he made two more clones appear from his back.

Just like his first 3 clones, his conciseness was shared between all of them with his senses being simultaneously shared.

There's nothing else it's just the addition of two clones. It might not seem that the best part of the skill is the increased intellect but understand that the sudden addition of clones changes everything.

The world believes Theodore can only produce up to three clones. In the future, he can use this information as an alibi.

Hence why the new clones will never be seen by another living person. Their sole purpose is for protection.
