Chapter 154. Explaining The Evolution
I then quickly looked at my watch as Deku started to get scared. “Kaminari! What’s wrong!” He came over to me to see my watch in panic. I looked at my watch and could start to feel the earring starting up. “What! I didn’t turn it on! The battery has been dead for years!” I scoffed at Melissa. “I am a human battery Melissa.” I joked as I looked at my watch, and what the Nanites were doing. I opened up the evolution page and groaned.
“Ugh… Of course.” I shook my head as Deku and Melissa were asking what was happening. I thought for a bit to let Melissa in on my secret, but I trusted her enough. “I should have known that if I have technology that touches my blood, that my Nanites would incorporate it.” I sighed again at how obvious that seems in retrospect. I looked back at the watch as both Deku and Melissa were still in shock.
I saw the watch was showing how the nanites were incorporating themselves to increase the amount that the earring cools me down. At first it would only cool to the arteries near my ear, like the basilar artery for my brain to remain cold, and maybe reach the extended carotid artery. However now the nanites would help increase blood flow already to help my blood go to extremities to hopefully increase the amount of heat I would lose like that. The only problem was even my extremities were heating themselves, so it didn’t work that well. It did help a bit, but not as much as what they were trying to pull off now.
“The nanites were figuring out what the earring was doing, and liked it. So now they are changing themselves to better use that technology throughout my body to keep me cool when I overheat.” I sighed while still reading what the watch was telling me. “Apparently, the earring works by cooling itself, and helps by cooling the wearer's blood vessels near the neck and head to keep the person cold. I don’t know exactly how that works, but now the nanites are trying to evolve themselves to do the same thing. Finding a way to cool themselves individually inside my bloodstream.”
I sighed while looking at the downside. “The only problem is that my body becomes a balancing act. If they can’t keep up with me, and they stop all of a sudden. I could overheat way faster, but if I run out of power while they are still cooling me…” I laughed a bit at the irony of what I was about to say. “I might develop hypothermia.” That last bit made me think of those SYFY movies with people in hypersleep, but I shook those thoughts away.
I looked at the stunned Melissa, and Deku who was thinking very seriously about my situation. I looked at the time, and sighed again. “Well, I have to get back to my hotel to change.” Melissa broke out of her stupor of all the info I just dumped on her with a saddened look in her eyes. I chuckled a bit at her and gave her a comforting smile.
“Melissa, I’m not mad. This was probably good for me. I’ve always had an issue with overheating, and now you’ve given me a fix for that.” Melissa seemed a bit more relieved as Deku looked at me as well. “Now I think we all have to get ready for the party. I already have a good idea of what the nanites are doing, and I don’t think we have anything to worry about.” They both nodded, but I could see the question in Melissa’s eyes of why I even have nanites. I gained a bit of a smile, it had been a long time since I just dangled an answer in someone's face.
“Now that everything important has been dealt with… Let’s all get ready. I’ll see you both at the opening at 6:30!” I started walking out the door as I saw Melissa’s face of disbelief. She looked between Deku and I multiple times, almost begging for an answer with her eyes. ‘As a science girl, I bet this is driving her extra nuts.’ I snickered a bit as I went out the door first.
I made it back to the hotel and knocked on the door. “Room service!” I yelled in a lower voice as a slight joke, as the door opened. “I’m sorry, but I-” When the door opened up I saw Nemuri standing in a voluptuous midnight blue dress. I just stared in awe of her dancing on the line of sexy and classy. She had a strapless gown that had a low cut top that was so low, it reached to her belly button. Her breasts almost seemed to be almost spilling out of her top. The dress formed around her body, leaving nothing to the imagination of her curves. The lower part of her dress had a long slit up the side. Revealing her left leg all the way up to her thigh.
Top Half
Bottom Half
I looked at her flawless skin, that was always hidden inside her hero costume. Despite having light fabric that showed a dominatrix, I had never seen the skin on her body. It was almost porcelain, in the way it seemed so soft, smooth, yet firm. ‘She does work out to be a hero. Wait, what am I thinking!?’ I had seen all of her curves with her hero costume, but for some reason seeing her looking more proper, yet still show off her bold attitude in public was something that I liked for some reason.
We both stared at each other in silence. I was just getting lost in her almost glowing blue eyes. I then noticed her hair had been done. It was not tied up, nor was it just tossed aside behind her like normal. It looked so smooth, like water would just bounce off of it. It had slight curls that sometimes would cover one of her eyes, giving her a sultry look. I was lost in all of her sexy and sultriness, but also how proper she looked as well. It struck a balance that made me confused.
Nemuri then seemed to break out of her stupor and drag me inside. I was still a bit in shock at how she looked. I never stopped gazing at her confusing beauty. She seemed to pick that up and started to blush while adjusting her glasses. That move only made her more appealing to me. The more that she wasn’t trying to shove sexual references, the more that I found her appealing. She was showcasing it right now, but it still seemed classy to me, while also showcasing her more teasing and perverse side.
She could be a bit sexual, and liked to tease for the reactions she got, but she also had a serious side to her. She always had that first part, but seeing both sides of her seemed to do something to me. I tried to talk to her, but I had trouble speaking the words. “Nemuri…” Was all I could say, before my brain failed me. I couldn’t think straight, everything about her was hard to compliment correctly. I felt like I would never truly find the correct words to describe her.
It was then that the other girls came into the room. I looked at all of them. I could hear my watch beeping at me. I then took a sharp breath and glanced at my watch. I sighed as I smiled at the girls. “Sorry, I forgot to breathe.”
