Chapter 134: Assessment Result

As the simulation continued, the scenarios also changed. From solo battles, I would suddenly be sent to a war which I don't know which side I am on. Team Battles where the allies were even conversing to me, however, they're all listening to my orders or the way around, they were ordering me to do something.

Rescue missions, ambushes and lastly Metagen battles.

There's even one scenario. A Mine Scramble. It recreated the scenario during the War for the Mines. The chaos during it was enough to even null a veteran's senses. With betrayals happening during the heat of the moment, one will find himself stabbed in the back.

However, that's only them, during every scenario, I'm calm and coolheaded. Judging the battlefield well, I managed to escape through the gaps and well, even if the side I was on didn't win, I didn't suffer a lot of damage.

One thing though, I finally got a taste of piloting a Metagen. Though I didn't get an ideal one, the program gave me the standard Metagen that was being used even to this date by Pilots who couldn't get their own Specialized Metagen.

The Primeval Knight. Though it's an imposing name for a Metagen, it's just named like that as something that will identify it as the League's standard Metagen. It only boasted a maximum of 50% output. It can only convert half of your original abilities. For example, I augmented an Air Bullet through the Metagen, if it has 2 Attack Power originally, you will only deal 1 damage to the enemy if it hits him, however, that was only if your enemy was also a Metagen.

When one is Piloting a Metagen, the most important variables prevalent in a battle involving it will be the Metagen and one's Brain Capacity.

Brain Capacity corresponds to one's Intelligence stat which is directly linked to one's ability to control one's own energy. That's why, if one has a higher ranked Brain Capacity, one's energy, ability and skills will be augmented by the Metagen more smoothly.

When Piloting a Metagen, the Strength and Endurance stats are not directly related to one's own body but to how sturdy the Metagen is built.

And how was a Metagen manufactured? Regenium and Meta Energy-powered engines, the higher the quality of the two, the better the Metagen.

Well, it also still depended on the Pilot on how he will cope in any situation. Even if the above-mentioned variables were of a higher grade, if the Pilot is an idiot, it will not produce the expected outcome. For example, Kazeyoshi.

In the case of Powergen, it enhances one's capability so all three stats are considered in it. The bonus protection is just a plus.

Back to the Primeval Knight which I piloted, the experience could be described as astonishing. With how high my Brain Capacity is, even with the 50% maximum output, the commands I could input through the Metagen's interface which was responsible for how a Metagen moves was phenomenal.

The generated Specialized Metagens by the program were cut down by me, well, not easily but that's that. I probably experienced what Nysia experienced before. Fighting the three hegemons without using a Specialized Metagen herself.

Though I passed all of the scenarios, I also started feeling the strain that I haven't felt before. Being someone constantly at the front line wasn't something I excel at. The program kept putting me in front at every start of a scenario.

I know it's intentional but I'm a back liner, you know?

Err... I guess it's one of the flaws of this almost perfect Virtual Simulation.

Around 10 hours after the simulation started, the endless plains that have changed multiple times to fit the scenario the program made shattered and turned back to white.

A huge screen then appeared in front of me which shows the result of my assessment.

--

Assessment: Superb!

Mythic Probability: Highest

Ideal Position: Support

--

… Nice, it says 'Support'. It really realized my worth, eh? Good job!

I could feel my eyebrows twitched by its own and my blood vessels on my temple appeared gratingly.

What is this indescribable irritation?

Though I liked that it accurately deduced my ideal position, it always feels like a slap in the face. Just like that time when 'The World' bestowed me the Support Character System as well as when Yuko told me that I am to be their Support and not a Hero like them.

In any case, with this, my capability assessment was finished.

"Congratulations, Daisuke!"

Lexie's voice that was overflowing with excitement rang out again a few seconds after that screen appeared. It's like she would jump at any moment because of it.

Ah. The result of my assessment was most possibly the reason.

"What made you so excited?"

"Of course, your Mythic Probability and the Assessment result. The Head will be pleased."

Ah. She's right. I could imagine Nysia acting cutely again.

Err… she won't, will she?

After that round of excited noises made by Lexie, she ejected me from the Virtual Space. I looked at the time and it's only an hour. 30 minutes before the Incarnation Duration is over. I can finally see those two scary Barbarian women again.

"I will report this to the Head. For the meantime, here's your Identity Plate. The three from earlier left a note to the receptionist. You can go to them first if you want or you can wait at one of our rooms."

Lexie handed me a card-sized Identity Plate after I finished dressing back.

Though she's still a bit embarrassed, she didn't turn around this time. She was looking at my body as if it's a special specimen that needed to be inspected and studied upon. If I was any other guy, I would surely be embarrassed.

I looked at the Identity Plate and inspected it. It's just a Black Card but coded in it was information about me and my affiliation.

"Thank you, I will be staying at one of your rooms first. I'll go to where they are later."

I put the Identity Plate inside the Necklace before answering her. Those three could wait and surely, Nysia will summon me up there later so it's better to wait here.

"Alright. Then follow me."

After saying that, Lexie led me to a floor where the Core Pilots stayed, the place was spacious and there were no other people who could be seen.

"This is just one of the floors allocated to a Core Pilot. On this floor, there are only four rooms and currently, no other Core Pilot was assigned here."

Lexie, who probably guessed what I was thinking, explained.

"This is the key to your room. You can use the computer inside the room to request for services, you will find it there."

She then handed me another card-sized key which I needed to swipe in order to open the door. Well, they're still not using biometrics but that's fine.

"Thank you. I might need an hour of rest so if I was summoned can you please wait?"

Though it might not even take a moment for the memories to be fused when the duration is over, it's still better to be safe. Also, it will be my time to try and make contact with this world's World's Will.

"Oh! Sure! No problem. You must be tired from doing the Assessment. Well then, welcome to the Primeval Aegis League, Daisuke."

Lexie continuously nodded before saluting to me again as part of her welcome, I copied it and saluted back to her.

"See you later!"

Lexie smiled first before turning around and excitedly rushed back to the elevator. Looks like she couldn't wait to let Nysia know about the result.

After seeing her off, I swiped the key card she gave me and opened the room. It's really wide and luxurious…

But yeah, I didn't need this much space. After laying down on the bed, I started thinking back to the 10 hours of assessment that happened.

Although it didn't really increase my strength, it gave me the necessary experience on what I should expect in this World of Meta.

The Darkgens, the Nam*kians err Alien Civilization as well as the power of the other Legend-rank Pilots and their Specialized Metagens.

I opted to rest my mind first and wait for the duration of the Incarnation to end.

Soon enough, the 30 minutes have passed.

[The duration of Support Incarnation has ended.]

[The memories of the Incarnation will now be transferred and merged to your memories]

[Transferring… Merging…]

[Memory Acquired.]

After that series of notifications, a whole day's worth of memories appeared in my mind.

In it, I was immediately met by the surprised faces of Avelin and Erin which immediately changed into a big grin as they both jumped towards me.
