DINNER, DESSERT, NIGHTCAP 5

Although its a hassle, I had to pretend that I'm on my way to eat dinner. I already made contact with my "online account", using my brand new phone, of one "Deth Jones": orphan, left with large amounts of insurance money from a rich faraway "uncle", "parents" passed away in a dungeon break accident, along with his "siblings".

This way no one would be suspicious, if I can pay, buy or trade using large amounts of OC (online credit), for the insurance that my "uncle" applied is the premium of premiums, being the wealthy tycoon that he is and since he's unmarried he named me, one of the "children" of my "father", as a "sole beneficiary".

The phone seems inconspicuous enough but I never lived for years as Omega Mane Crown, if not for my paranoid skill, I technically my android brain and body, created and installed a quantum algorithm firewall, that scrambles my location if someone were to---shall we say, peek on my location.

My outgoing calls, texts or messages are also encrypted and anyone would be hard-pressed to find me through those as well.

By the way, I chose "Deth" as a name because this body is called D.E.A.T.H. (dynamic enhanced assault technological humanoid) which is a play on the word "death".

*SIGH

A weapon for god knows what, but seems to be a failed experiment as it was discarded and the only thing its good at is its able to create programs, tough body and its mana battery.

I just need high class items to upgrade it with so that it can reach a 10 Circle Rank, which is fucking unbelievably great, not only do I have to level up my Magic Soul Cores but also to spruce things up, level up this android body as well.

Once I break the 5 Magic Soul Core and reach 6 Magic Soul Core, I don't know if this robot body will be able to handle a sudden surge of power...it doesn't affect it right now but once it breaks the 5 number....which according to my past experiments, it will definitely be something that it can't handle.

*KA-CHAK

*SHUUUUUUuuuuuuu

"Security Shield."

*CHACHACHACHACHACHACHACHACHACHAKKKKK

Reminds of that SUV (sports utility vehicle) of that superhero guy called The Black...his motif was that everything was black: weapons, battle suit, vehicles, etc.

His truck also has this technology of covering his whole vehicle in armor scales, same reason this one is for, to prevent anyone from stealing or jacking his tires.

Ahhh....good times....good times.

I entered the famous Adventurer restaurant, it was ran by all former Adventurers who retired and collaborated, because their abilities synergies with their chosen profession: a magic chef, alchemist, elemental warlock, muscle power and beast tamer.

The chef cooks, alchemist prepares the sauces, the warlock provides the flames, frost and cooking tools needed, the tanker provides the muscle to carry and move goods and the beast tamer scrounges for edible monsters, fruits, vegetables and other things needed to create wonderful magical food menus.

"Is that seat available over there, the one-seater near the window?"

"Ah. Yes, its available. Let me clean that a bit while you take a seat."

*NODS

I took my seat and although I couldn't feel it, my android heads up display is showing that the whole place was air conditioned. It was quite hot outside before I came in, a sweltering 60 degrees, even though its almost midnight.

After the waitress cast Clean magic on the table and made sure everything was okay, only then did she take my order.

"What're you having?"

I scanned the menu on the holographic screen, that came out of the middle of the table and gave my order.

"One Set Meal Number 9, a pitcher of Beansprout Rootbeer, a tall glass with full of ice and a 12 Banana Sundae Split and uh...could you please deliver the sundae when I'm about to finish eating---I will give an extra tip."

"All right: one set number 9, pitch of beansprout rootbeer, tall glass with ice to the brim and a 12 banana sundae split, would that be all?"

"Yep."

"All right give us 10 minutes for the order and extra tip to give the sundae when you finish dinner."

"You got it!"

"Kindly wait please."

I know that its too much but I know of a spell where you can convert the food you eat into literal "Soul Food". Its a magic that I found while I was gallivanting around Gaion, I found an ancient Spectre that begged for his life and asked for food, and in exchange it taught me this ultra-rare magic that no one has ever heard of before.

It was useless.

As I was among the living and enjoyed food for what it is, my "soul" doesn't need food....except now.

When the waitress exited to relay my food order, I secretly casted Detect Intent, who knows if there are assholes that have some hidden agenda, the Predicting Algorithm can only do so much---and killing intent or whatever can only be detected by someone with a flesh body.

An android can compensate with radar but it only applies to movement and the location of nearby opponents or allies...NOT intent.

After a while my order arrived...

"Mmmmmmmm!!!!!"

Holy fuck!

I didn't know that Soul Food spell was this fucking fantabulous! I always thought that that old gizzard was just exaggerating and whatnot when he casted the spell and ate in front of me...but this....this is the real deal!

I can literally smell, taste and savor the flavor of the food....aahhh....its been so long since I've "eaten". Literally I can "eat" the food using this magic spell, I don't know about the nourishment part but the satiety part is there, I'm literally fucking satisfied by eating and drinking this weird but super delicious Beansprout Rootbeer.

"Ahhh....its just a few simple dishes but to be overly satisfied like this...."

It just means that I have accumulated so much stress on my soul, that its looking something to satiate its "stress"...if I had an organic body instead of a non-organic...I may turn into a fatty but praise the moon for an unlikely fortunate event!

"Here's your 12 banana sundae!"

"Thanks, I'll pay now and add your extra tip. Also wrap a bottle of that Booqo Palm Liquor, to go as well."

"Woah! Here you are and thank you very much and come again!!"

While gobbling up the 12 banana dessert, oh why no one was paying attention to me eating food? Well to the NPCs (non player characters) nearby, it would be like I'm just eating normally but in reality, the food is turned into actual soul for my soul to "eat".

Anyway, I'm already strong using magic but the problem is this android body, its meant to be a weapon but because it failed some test or something, it was immediately discarded.

I guess I need to do "that"....

Ugh.

Its freaking hard but doable.

I began to fuse the slime skin that I developed in the past, to serve as a non-magical way to disguise myself, in order to procure rare ingredients, mix among the mortal populace or evade various trackers, assassins and whatnot.

As someone who has power, there are bound to be tons of jealous individuals who will do everything just to see you fall, from a high rank to the lowest rank that is not even worth mentioning.

By combining the slime skin flesh with my android non-organic body, I can simulate using magic from my 5 Magic Soul Cores, to create a hybrid of living humanoid of sorts, that is able to do martial arts.

Yes.

I've had my fair share of various murim type characters, fought, killed, massacred you name it but "Aura" is limited to the flesh...unlike magic that comes from beyond. Every being has this aura but a mage or wizard loses it once mana is introduced.

The reason I'm attempting to do it, is because through this body, I can separate the organic from the non-organic. I will recreate the special organ, that martial artists possess that enables them to produce Aura...the appendix.

Yes.

That so called organ, dubbed as the most useless organ in the human body, is actually the catalyst needed to create and ignite Aura in the body. Those who had them removed, will have a harder time as the need to "recreate" this organ before they can learn Aura Arts.

Its been a couple of hours and I've managed to recreate the muscles, tissues, veins and other organs needed to produce a body made for martial arts. The nano machines are adapting to my changes and is incorporating it into the current design of the android body....evolving it.

The nano bots are multiplying, to compensate to the increase of mass and weight, as well as the newly formed organs that it will need to monitor, now and in the future.

If only humans are able to do this with their own cells, the possibilities are endless and may make humans live for trillions of decades...but if its a good or bad thing will only remain the vast imagination of "what if".

The mana batteries have to be removed and swapping it with using Aura as the new power source will be tricky...I have done transplants and organ swaps, both magic and manually doing so...but still it makes me excited, scared and happy at the same time.

I don't know what would happen if this "body dies", will I return to the circle of reincarnation or do I disappear into the void? All these emotions are building up inside me, I know what to do but also don't know what to do.

Well here it goes.....

*SIPS

"Ahhh....that some good shit."

The Booqo Palm Liquor is tasty as hell, I've tried Dragon Blood Mead and Chaos Ambrosia, but this is about the top 20 in my book. I can tweak this but...do I have become a businessman again?

I mean I do love money and currently I'm not poor but its better lots of it, than less of it.

*TSK

I'll think of this again in the future...the important thing is that it was a success. Although the level of Aura is just level 1 but the point is I created a non-living entity to produce Aura exclusive for organics only!

The possibilities are fucking endless!

I just have to be careful and be weary of others who thinks the same as me...nothing is prohibited so long as its the pursuit of knowledge.

Fuck that.

I can only do that and others, they will die if they think otherwise....
