Welcome back to another ep-

Hey, your finally awake.

So, uh... 10 levels... I was like, level 50 right? Now I'm level 40... I should, like ... power level or something. Maybe I could buy a few XP pots?

Nevermind, I'll just gimmick my way through. I'll bring the whole crew this time... speaking of wich, I revived about a week in... so they might be a bit worried.

...

Walking from my claimed room I have in Mordova's house, upon a sofa sat Dice and Anise.

- " Hey guys, what did I miss? "

A- " Cobalt? You can come back from the dead? "

- " Yeah? "

A - " Well, saves costs from the fune-"

D - " Anise, please take this seriously. Due to his death, my earlier suspicions of there being someone capable of hurting Master is out there. "

- " Actually I basically just killed myself, I jumped right into a worms stomach so... yeah, should I of combated it the outcome would of been different. "

...

- " You can laugh you know, I don't mind. "

...

- " Anyhow, where is Syn? "

D - " Ahem... alright, I think syn is in the basement directing the body you left. I haven't seen her since. "

Her?

...

Your fucking with me, right system?

| Welcome back Cobalt, I can assure you that Syn hasn't become female... rather due to its lack of gender motifs Dice has referred to Syn as female. |

Whew.... that's good to know.

I headed down towards... wherever the basement was, actually... I don't know where it is but I'll find it eventually right? Until then...

\ Lock me Up /

Hell to it, this contract might be our only way out of this damned world... lock me up you damn soldiers? Try and fucking lock up a fucking computer program.

I arrived at... whatever this place is called, I'm supposed to test the technology and submit some data or whatever... if the project succeeds then my family will be able to finally escape from their fates, I don't care if I fail this... there safety is more important than mine!

I entered the indiscrete building, it was covered in a jumble of wires... and there are signs of the Spore being here, not very welcoming to say the least! I am of the opinion that this place might be a sham or whatever, last week I heard the clicking from the nearby ally... so I can't be threatened by this...

Mask on, gun loaded, knife available, whistle on my neck, my will and testament, alright... let's see if this is where I die.

( MC POV continued. )

In a metal hallway layer the entrance to the basement, such was available via a similar metal elevator... the walls where dusty and neared black in hue, it was very dim and damp, but not warm despite being near lots of weirdly modern machines. After entering the elevator, I pressed the button marked " Down " and as expected... headed downwards into whatever the basement may be.

Upon the door opening, I was met with a large vat of giant glass tubes... typical mad science lair if you get what I mean, I called out to Syn with the only response from what laid inside the various tubes... they were all a fair mimicry of me, for the most part at least... my colorable features were absent, most likely because I change them so often.

Of course, the clones weren't exactly... made well? They clearly shown signs of inbreeding or... some sort of birth defect, I can't exactly tell. Most likely something to with the process of making them. The species were shorter and encased in what seems to be either scales or small metal plates. Upon appraisal with my Battle eyes...

| Artificial species - unnamed |

| Level 000000 |

| Unique Properties: Hive Mind, Asexual reproduction, ' Fury of the Fallen '. |

| Desc. - After an attempt to recreate the life of Cobalt, ... the results were not as expected, creating a single celled organism that mimicks the human body... it can replicate when given either an high amount of food or absorbing another fully grown being, it doesn't require nourishment. |

> " Hello? "

> " Hel-lo?

> " Hello? "

> " Hello? "

Creepy...

- " Hey? What's up? "

> " Hello. "

- " Hello? Can you speak? "

> " Hello, can speak ".

- " Oh, your like an echo type thing... like that one myth. "

> " Echo, like that "

- " Do you have a name? "

> " You. "

Oh yeah, these guys are clones of me... so Syn probably called them Cobalt or something.

- " My name is Cobalt, I'm the original... did syn make you? "

> " Sy-n make I'm . "

- " I see, is he here right now? "

> " right now? "

- " Is he here or not? "

> " Not here, is he? "

> " Is he not ? "

> " Not, he is here. "

> " He is here "

- " Ah, thanks for the help. See ya? "

> " Help? "

- " Oh, you probably want out right? "

> " Right, want out. "

Alright, I'll open these guys up and check out Syn.
