Chapter 55 Moving the Relationship forward in bed

“Charlotte! Charlotte!” Brian ran towards the kitchen while shouting her name.

“What happened?” Charlotte turned around while holding the knife in her hand. She was chopping the vegetables.

Seeing the knife, Brian immediately kicked the brakes on his foot and said “Can you put that knife away first?”

Charlotte did as he said and the next moment, he held her hands and shouted with an excited expression on his face.

“Can you believe what just happened right now? Ely just calle4d you a family and she didn’t even take it back?”

“Wait, wait, what? What happened?” Charlotte didn’t know whether to be surprised or happy.

Brian slowly calmed down and explained everything. When she heard his entire speech, her eyes widened.

“Oh my god! She has accepted me.”

The next moment, she didn’t realize that she was holding and swinging Brian in the air. As for Brian, he didn’t know whether to be embarrassed about it or feel happy.

As for Charlotte, she didn’t care at first but as her happiness began to calm down, she realized that she was doing something that made Brian very silent. She immediately understood and put him back on the ground.

“Sorry!” Charlotte felt guilty but she couldn’t stop smiling.

Seeing her happiness, Brian couldn’t help but hold her hands. He looked into her eyes and said “One day, she will call you mother.”

Today, he felt like Ely was finally starting to love him like she loves her mother. As for Charlotte, she doesn’t hate her that much. At the start, she used to hate her a lot.

“Don’t stress out! We have a lot of time to slowly grow this relationship.” Charlotte got in front of him and placed her forehead on his.

Brian licked his lips and the next moment, he grabbed her lips with his. It was aggressive but also passionate. Their lips moved as their hands. She was placing her hands around his head while he was placing his hands around her waist.

Suddenly, Brian lifted her in his arms. The next moment, he took her straight to the bedroom. He asked Lily to completely turn off any electric device inside this room except the sound restricting device.

The beds were rocking and the sounds were high unfortunately, there was no one to spy.

After half an hour, Brian and Charlotte walked out of the room, a little messy especially Charlotte’s hair. Charlotte felt soreness in her legs. She could barely walk on.

She looked at Brian and asked, “Can we call for delivery?”

“Alright! I know a perfect place.” Brian nodded his head and made a call.

In just twenty minutes, the bell of his house rang. He asked Charlotte to take some rest while he went to open the door. For now, there was no one else in this mansion yet.

“Sir, your food has arrived.” The man wearing a delivery t-shirt handed Brian the food and a paper over it.

“Thank you for using Instant Dragon Restaurant!” The delivery man smiled and turned around. As soon as he turned around, his forehead got covered with sweat.

Zone C! He never expected to get any orders from Zone C. Normally, the restaurant he works operates in Zone B. Not to mention, the guest who ordered the food had the highest level of authority which surprised him a lot.

Because only shareholders could have such authority.

“Instant Dragon Restaurant? Wait, isn’t that the most profitable restaurant of this year, and the previous year?” Charlotte asked with surprise on her face. With her enhanced hearing, she could easily hear the voice of that delivery man.

Brian nodded his head while putting the food on the table and calling Ely up.

“When I was working at UMA, I kinda started ordering food from outside. Since I was ordering food daily, I realized that if I don’t eat healthy food, it would be devastating for my health.”

“So, I bought a fairly good restaurant and hired some of the best and trustworthy chefs that UMA had to run the restaurant. I renamed it ‘Instant Dragon Restaurant’.”

“Of course, only the manager and the head chefs know my identity and every time I order, it was them who make my food. Though during two years after I left UMA, I started cooking on my own.”

Charlotte rolled her eyes and said, “Can you not flex in front of me?”

Buy a restaurant just because you want healthy food? She couldn’t believe he was the man she fed for a year just to keep him alive.

Brian chuckled and wrapped his hand around his waist.

“I am not flexing. I just understood the value of healthy food when you cooked it for me. Thanks, Charlotte!”

Charlotte suddenly blushed and pushed him away.

“Ely can come any second!”

“Daddy, I learned something important today,” Ely announced while jumping between Brian and Charlotte.

“What did you learn, sweetie?” Brian asked while rubbing her head.

“Hehe! I learned a shortcut to create my A.I. Instead of focusing on one A.I., I should create dozens of them and scatter them around the internet. They can learn faster and when all the data is collected, I can synchronize them and produce the final result.” Ely proudly explained while picking up the spoon.

Brian’s smile vanished and he shook his head.

“Ely, you can’t use this method. When it is a single A.I., you can have a complete grasp over it. Like Lily for example; If she ever overrides the restriction over her functions, then I can easily put the greater restrictions on her and put her in my control.”

“But, if I make dozens of A.I. that are capable of doing what Lily can do then what are the chances of me controlling them? None! I have no chance at all because Lily isn’t just an A.I.”

“Do you know what would happen if I keep a bomb in front of a four-year-old child? It will blow up. If you create multiple A.I. to learn about the entire world, then one of them will turn out to be bad.”

“Do you know why? Because out of one billion humans, at least sixty percent of us have done one bad thing in our life. And, the bad thing we do is very small compared to the bad thing that A.I’s do.”

“Either you create multiple A.I. who isn’t capable of being someone like Lily or create a single A.I. with a self-learning function. If it falls under the control of a bad person, then it will be detrimental.”

Ely opened her mouth wide when she heard that. She didn’t consider this at all. She suddenly trembled when she thought about the consequences of Lily falling into the hands of a bad guy.

She turned her head at Brian and asked “Daddy, is that why you aren’t using A.I. or robots to reinforce humans? Are you afraid of these techs landing in the hands of a bad guy?”

Brian nodded his head “Yes and no! Although I am afraid of these techs falling into the hands of bad guys. The reason why I chose not to focus on technological development has a lot to do with Lucy Bathory.”

“Mother?” Ely wasn’t surprised by him calling her by her name.

Brian nodded his head. Charlotte also got curious as she listened attentively.

“In my life till now, New Gods, Celestial Killing Bomb, and Lily are three of my finest creations. All of them have the potential to change the world. But, do you know a funny thing about this?”

?(O)??? “Even if I use Celestial Killing Bomb, there is only twenty percent chance that her cells will alter and eighty percent chance that she will be able to resist the alteration process. And most importantly, even if Zero-Point Energy gets removed from her body, she can still tank any weapon we have created so far.”

“That’s why instead of focusing on weapons, I decided to focus on increasing the strength of humans through more magical way or in my terms ‘Fourth Dimensional Cultivation’.”

“Alright! That’s enough for tonight. Let’s eat and sleep!”

Ely and Charlotte nodded their heads and finished their meals. After finishing their food, Brian took them to the bed. He didn’t enter the game or had fun with the computer.

Rather, he slept together with his daughter and his girlfriend. The bed was quite big. Charlotte and he slept on the side while Ely slept on the middle.

……

Somewhere in the dark room,

A small figure wearing a red hoodie stood in front of the virtual projection and spoke.

“Lily, transfer the Celestial Killing Bomb internal structure into the Power Chamber, turn on the 4D Creation Mode, and start creating the Celestial Killing Bomb.”

[Yes, Miss Elenor. Would you like me to increase the output of the Power Chamber?]

“How much fuel do we have?”

[Miss, even if we use thirty percent of the remaining fuel, we can still use Space-Time Chair one time to go back.]

“Good! Also, save the internal imprint of the Celestial Killing Bomb and delete my avatar from New Gods.”

[Yes, Miss!]

Saying so, she took out a syringe and pierced her skin. When the liquid inside the syringe enters her body, she raises her head and asked.

“Lily, what’s the level of Zero-Point Energy in my body?”

A green light scans her body and Lily’s voice rang.

[Miss, the Anti-Zero Point Energy is erasing all of the Zero-Point Energy in your body. But your strength won’t return back to a normal]

“It’s okay. My only mission is to erase the Zero-Point Energy from existence.”

At this moment, two lines of tears fell down her beautiful red eyes. The screen’s blue light fell on her jade-like face covered with tears as she murmured.

“Isn’t that right, Daddy?”
