Resolve And Plans

"So, you're saying that you're useless except for being a glorified pendrive of technology from a far-advanced species who were destroyed because of said technology," Aniket said, pinching his temples.

[Yes, in a simpler form, that is exactly what I am saying.]

"What could go wrong with this? Oh wait, literally everything can go wrong here. From my platera of experience with anime, manga and cartoon, I could tell that one of the great civilizations is already looking for you and it probably has a king/king-like entity that has a stick the size of the universe up his ass." Aniket said, 'I don't want to deal with this. I don't have some great ambition like the other main character. All I ever want is to find a decent job that pays well, get a wife, have children, buy a house in the suburbs, and live there for the rest of my life.' Aniket thought.

[ Sir, with all due respect, I don't think you have a choice here. Either you develop enough earth to combat other civilizations, or your dream life will be destroyed.]

"You can read minds now?" Aniket said, "You have a customizable setting, right?"

[If you mean to customize if I can read your thoughts or not, you can restrict my authorization]

"Fine, I only authorize you to read my mind if I ever think of your name, and I also restrict all your actions. You have to have my permission before you do anything." Aniket said, 'I don't want her to read my mind. Just because it is bound to me doesn't mean I trust it yet. As for the other thing, it would be bad if she took over my body or altered it.' Aniket thought, careful to avoid using her name.

[Setting customized]

"Let's get out here first. I don't know how much money I've lost already," Aniket said. He got up from the bed and changed his clothes. He quickly left the room and asked the nurse at the front reception, "I am the patient from room ###, can you please give me the bill and tell me the name of my savior?" 

The nurse looked him up and down, a faint red happened to be on her cheeks. 'Although, I don't like to brag about it. I was born with extremely good looks, ' Aniket thought with a smile. The nurse quickly found herself busy with work as she typed on the computer. She then spoke up..

"Sir, your bill comes to 2,91,722 lakes, but it looks like your bill is already paid in full." 

"That doesn't sound right, I didn't pay for it. Was it the one who saved me?" Aniket asked 

"Yes, sir. As for the name of the miss who was saved, she hasn't told and just left after confirming that you are well," the nurse said. 'Well, this is the least surprising thing that happened to me today. Since she doesn't want to be exposed, I will not expose her. Let's just think of my situation here,' Aniket thought as he thanked the nurse and left the hospital. He took the bus home, and when he got in, he went into the bathroom.

After finishing all this, he was now dressed in a blue hoodie and lying in the bedroom, water from his hair dripping down onto his face as he stared at the ceiling. 'What do I do now? Aliens with super tech can come down onto earth and destroy it any day, and the reason and the one who can stop it is me, but that will require me to bring myself into a position of power. I don't even know where to start. Do I even need to do it? I can leave Earth, technically saving it. Uni, what do you think?' Aniket thought and asked Uni.

[ It is a very small probability, sir. They will be unlikely to ignore such a rare planet with a sign of bubbling civilization, Also, it has the rarest tangible resource in the entire universe, so they will be likely to take over this planet and exterminate the civilization to take over.]

"There goes that plan. Fine, the hard way seems to be the only way." Aniket said as he got onto the laptop and searched through industries to start a business in. Unlike others, I have plenty of choices to start my business since I can quit having all the total hard work of like a thousand civilizations. What do you think I should do, Uni?'

[ First off, it is 13,578 civilizations, each one ranking from level 1-4. As for your question, sir, I recommend looking into politics, the business environment, competition, and the general populace's view on it.]

"I get politics, business environment, and competition, but why the general populace?" Aniket asked 

[ I have found a pattern in a civilization that is around the same part as you. When a civilization reaches a level of near 0.5, they experience a sort of stagnation. The way to overcome this is if the genius or talents decide to take it into their own hands and shape the world. This is also the reason why most or nearly all civilizations that survive crossing this line have a geniocracy government.]

"Are you trying to make me rule the world like a tyrant or something?" Aniket asked 

[ No, the choice you want to make is completely your choice. I only exist to serve you, but I advise you to consider data.]

"Sigh. It is the people who choose Uni. People have a right to choose what they want, otherwise, they will rebel at one wrong move, causing the entire government to fall and return to square one," Aniket said 

[...]

"As for the business, I believe the AI industry is the way to go," Aniket said

[Why do you say so, sir?]

"It is the hottest field right now. Having a top AI company is becoming more and more of a national pride, thus giving the inventor, aka me, sort of a hero status. It is also a field that can revolutionize many other fields too, thus, it can break us into other fields," Aniket said. "Although I am not that intelligent, strategy is my cup of chai."
