Chapter 228
[POV Momo]
Since we arrived in the kitchen I was thinking about my next project. The mind-blowing sex we had just before coming here also helped me clear my head. The next project I have been thinking about was something completely different from what I have worked in this world… back in the HP World when the magical people started to send out satellites, they came to me for help and I was their lead researcher and designer…
I still have those notes along with me and my next project was to design satellites. The satellites I have seen in this world, leave much to be desired… yes, I can understand that in this world the technology is quite lacking but that doesn't mean that I should cripple myself by using backward technology when I can make something myself.
Now, the problem was that I won't be having Fleur to help me on this project. Fleur was training Jean to learn about her Phoenix powers and I cant ask Eric, that guy is busy with the residential area. So, I had to work on this project on my own… I don't mind working on a project by myself but the progress was going to be rather slow.
So, when Natasha said that she was looking for work, I jumped in before Nemuri could get her claws in her. I know, it's too late for Natasha to escape from Nemuri's claws, after all, Natasha was living on this island and Nemuri would get to her eventually.
After breakfast was finished, I finally left the kitchen along with Natasha, on the way to my lab we exchanged some normal pleasantries. Honestly, I didn't know about her enough… only some stuff I had heard from Nemuri. It was clear that Nemuri wanted Natasha to join Reo's harem… I wanted to know her better before that happened… it was another reason I invited her to my project.
Now one thing I already knew was that Natasha was worthy of Reo or Nemuri wouldn't have wanted Natasha to join the harem. Even though it might not seem like it but Nemuri is the most zealous woman among us… if she thinks that something or someone is a threat to Reo… she won't hesitate to kill them before making them feel unimaginable pain.
We finally arrived in my lab, I shot the necessary charms to unlock my lab. Yes, I use magic to lock my lab, after all, it is the safest method, nobody knows magic except our group and they would never mess up my lab.
"So, how can I help?" Natasha's question brought me out of my thoughts.
"Tell me what do you know about satellites? I mean the ones made by man" I asked Natasha, who looked thoughtful for a few moments before starting to answer my question. Yes, I could definitely use her help… well, it was obvious that she didn't know about the technical aspects of satellites but if I hand her a camera to bolt into the chassis, she could easily do that.
"Natasha, welcome to lab… sorry I don't have anything to welcome you to your new job" I said with a smile on my face and created a paper. I wanted to write down my initial plans regarding the satellite. Hearing me, Natasha smiled but remained seated for now… she was looking around my lab and I didn't mind it. Currently, I didn't have anything volatile in my lab…
"So, we will be making satellites?" Natasha asked looking at the magic and technology compound chart I had on my table.
"Yes, we won't be making any normal satellite though… from everything going on around the world I got this idea. Meta-humans are naturally born from humans, right?" I asked Natasha, she nodded her head, clearly curious about where I was going with my direction of questioning. "So, even after Reo successfully brings all the meta-humans on this island, meta-humans would still be born outside this island… I want to make a satellite with the ability to identify those meta-humans as soon as they are born" I finally finished. Natasha was looking at me with wide eyes while gaping like a fish out of the water…
"…You plan to steal babies from their parents?" when Natasha finally gathered back her wits she asked me with a shocked look on her face. Well, I guess I should clear that up the misunderstanding…
"No, I have no plan of stealing babies from their parents. After all, the X-Gene doesn't appear on newborn kids… it takes some time to appear. So, the babies won't have a problem with their parents but when they grow up their powers might show up and we know about the hate… so the parents might throw out their kids on the streets… we should keep an eye on them and when that happens we will get to them" I explained my plan to Natasha, she nodded her head in understanding.
"I was currently using an algorithm to recognize the mutants… the algorithm is perfect but the current satellites can't use that algorithm… I had to integrate the algorithm into the surveillance software, only after that, I was able to make it work" I continued to explain… Natasha nodded her head in understanding. That's good… at least, she is able to understand the basic stuff. But before I could start working I needed to check something, I got up from my seat and went check the AI I had made.
Looks like the humans in this world are not stupid like the purebloods in the HP World. After, Reo had destroyed Nebraska City no incident of meta-human abuse was recorded… I am not naïve to think that there aren't any blind spots but my satellites will be able to rectify that…
[POV Reo]
"So, what's on our agenda today?" Nemuri asked me from behind. She followed me out of the kitchen after I finished my breakfast and walked out.
"Don't you remember that you were training Ororo in magic?" I asked Nemuri giving her a meaningful look. Nemuri gave me an annoyed look.
"I asked Rumi to train her… she is just learning the basics so magic and Rumi can help her now" Nemuri said in a dismissive tone… I had to agree with that logic.
"And don't think that I am stupid… I know that you will be going after that U-Men group and Sublime" Nemuri said while poking my shoulder, I completely surrender to her. I will be definitely going after them…
Suddenly my phone chimed and I saw that I have received a text from Fleur. 'Wait up, Jean wants to talk with you' that was all she wrote in the text. I texted her back about my current location… this is slightly worrying. I don't know if Charles is still alive or not. "I will be back in a sec, wait here" I told Nemuri and before she could say anything, I Flash Stepped inside my room and pulled out my laptop.
I immediately started to check about Charles, it took only a few seconds to get a match. Last night, a person named Charles Xavier was admitted to Hotellit Kohteessa in the mental trauma ward. It was clear with this record that Charles was helping the humans. After all, Hotellit Kohteessa is a military hospital in New York and normal citizens aren't admitted there…
I checked the camera feed of his ward and found that he was already awake but he wasn't looking good… there was a bandage wrapped around his head. Not, my fucking problem. He attacked me and he is paying the price now…
Now that I have gotten the information. I texted Fleur the location where I left Nemuri standing. I turned off the laptop and Flash Stepped beside Nemuri. "What was so important?" Nemuri asked me curiously.
"I needed some information for Jean, it's clear that she wants to deal with Charles Xavier" I answered Nemuri. After a few minutes, both Jean and Fleur arrived where we were.
"Can we deal with Charles today or do you have something to do? The Phoenix is getting rather impatient" Jean asked me with a serious look on her face. I could clearly see the determination in her eyes.
"Yes, we can deal with him. Last night when I was in Nebraska City, he attacked me mentally, I retaliated so he got quite injured. He is currently in a hospital" I said to Jean, I didn't want to hide this fact from the Phoenix that's why I came clean.
Jean looked thoughtful for a few moments, I think she was conversing with the Phoenix. After a few seconds, Jean's eyes focused back on me "The Phoenix is fine with it as long as he is alive" Jean spoke. I nodded my head telling her that he was definitely alive.
"So, where are we going? Mind if I join you guys too?" Fleur asked us in an excited tone. She must have been feeling cramped up… I know how excited she becomes when we go on a trip or something similar…
"Yeah, more the merrier" Nemuri said and placed her hand on Fleur's shoulder, and before Fleur could say anything both of them disappeared in a crack.
Jean was looking at me with an odd expression, I just shrugged and extended my hand towards me. Jean slightly blushed and meekly took my hand… odd! I didn't show any outward reaction when she took my hand, I just smiled and both of us disappeared with another crack…
