Chapter 170 - 170. Life of a Scientist in Azuria.

NOTICE: PERSPECTIVE SWITCH TO ISADORA

In a room filled with posters of inventions and pictures of Nytri and Isadora skiing and other stuff, Isadora is on her bed asleep. She's snuggled herself on her bed, then a knock comes from her door

*Knock knock knock* "Isa! Wake up you're gonna be late for work".

Isa wakes up yawning, "Its morning already" She yawns again walking to the bathroom to prepare. She walks to her closet and a screen like mirror appears before her, Isa folds her hair into a pony tail. She walks to her bed and takes the gold sheets off. She hangs it by the closet and uses another plain sheet to lay the bed.

She walks to the closet and cleans the gold sheet which very slowly turns white. Isa looks in the mirror and a list of clothes appear. She selects one and a slot opens on the closet with the clothes she chose there. She dresses up in a nice short and pants with a lab coat, she strikes a few poses before the mirror.

The door opens and a figure lean on the door post smiling, "Looks like you woke up on the right side of the bed."

Isa glances at the figure still posing, "What do you mean, Nyx?" Nyx is Isa's roommate, these 2 have gotten along pretty well even before they became Azurian. Nytri often called them gold and coal(cool) when they were together.

Nyx chuckles, "Normally, you wake up like this." She pretends to be Isa, "'Huuhh, it's morning already? 5 more minutes.' And when you do wake up," Nyx pretends to look exhausted, "'Urgh, someone turn the sun down.' And you cover yourself." Nyx chuckles, "For someone with the best affinity for light, you suck at being cheery."

Isa turns to Nyx, "Oh ha ha, look who's talking." Isa walks to the doorway, "You got the day off from the mines, whatch you gonna do?"

Nyx turns leaving the room to the left, "Hmmm, maybe join the Stylist for the day. The made badass costumes for grandma." She reaches the dining room and takes a seat before breakfast, it's toast bread with chocolate tea. Nyx takes a sip, "What about you? Heard you had a run in with mum…..is that why you slept so well?"

Isa shrugs, "Of course not," She sits down, "She molded my face into a metal bat! Isn't that too harsh as punishment?" Nyx raises a brow looking at Isa and Isa keeps talking, "Anyway, mum told me to stop working on the Physical Booster." She takes a bite, "Ist wold'fe beef gwaet (It would've been great)." She swallows, "It's a permanent physical stat booster, sure I use some irritant compounds but the result would've been awesome."

Nyx speaks sarcastically, "Yeah, it would've been the best." She takes a sip of the tea, "Like that time you made a live bomb in the bunker and mum had to cover it with her body way before she evolving."

Isa scratches her head, "Ok, maybe not my best idea. But the bomb did come in handy."

"Urgh," Nyx speaks, "Uncle though it was a fizzy candy and kept eating it after lunch."

Isa's eyes open wide, "So that's why my stock kept diminishing. Anyway, today I'm taking it slow."

Nyx gets up to the sink to wash her plate, "Define slow? Even on excursions you'd be tinkering on something that would blow up in our faces."

"Not everything blew up!" Isa speaks with embarrassment, "Maybe a joy ride on a bike. I noticed mum loves riding her bike around. See, that's one idea that didn't blow up."

Nyx squints her mouth, "I doubt mum is riding it for fun though. She's so conservative with her EP that it's frightening."

"Yeah, but she won't match Ivan." Isa walks to the sink and Nyx washes her dishes too, she grabs 2 juice boxes from the fridge and hands one to Nyx. "Our cousins, especially Ivan barely uses any EP. He'd use an EP jewel for his skills rather than his own, he said he wants to be ready when it's time to run."

Nyx sips the juice, "That makes sense, I can't count the number of times grandma considered our cousins as intruders. I wish the clan wouldn't be too focused on blood and accept them." She opens a screen and looks at it talking, "I get that the clan has good reasons. Uncle said our cousins have no scent on them so he feels like nothingness is watching him. That's also why we can't sense our cousins around us with detection."

Isa is surprised, "Uncle can sense 'Nothing'?"

Nyx nods, "Yeah, he says it's like a carved-out section of reality. It's pretty dangerous since it could be a portal or hole to some forsaken place like the Abyss in the Abyssal Realm." Nyx walks towards the door and exits, she reaches outside turns to Isa, "Anyway, have fun!" she scatters into darkness and appears in front of a big building with a huge scissor signboard.

Isa walks to the table and notices something missing, "Right, I left my keys at work. I'll have to get it before I can drive….." she looks up, "No one at work has opened their storage space too. Guess I'll take the bus." Isa walks out of the bus and sees an Azurian on a bicycle riding as exercise, "Hi Cuel!" she waves her hand. Cuel waves back with a, "Hi!" and continues.

Isa walks to a bus stop and takes the bus to R&D district main building, she gets down and heads to her office to get her keys. She glances over a blueprint of a metal dragon. She gets a couple new ideas. "Hmmm, how about I add a cockpit to the dragon to turn it into a mecha? But it will have intelligence to function as a golem, though I'll have to make its brain from actual materials and not rune crafts."

She looks at the brain of the dragon, "What if I built the brain in the form of a cube? No, that wouldn't be right the sides wouldn't be in sync. Then a sphere? I made its power generator spherical in shape so too much spheres. Hmmm, maybe if I made it liquid instead of solid. Yeah, I could install a shape shifting matrix so it doesn't stay rigid as a dragon but can actually change shapes. If its whole body can liquify then, all I have to is make the brains with liquid processors. Making it completely liquid is impossible, so I will make the components too tiny to be seen yet connect and make it viscous. So if it does change to liquid form, it would still retain a solid state yet act as liquid...Argh! No work today!"

Isa turns and leaves the office, she reluctantly locks her door and leaves the floor. Isa reaches the ground floor and notices it's almost noon, "Urgh, I did it again. How does mum ignore work like that?" She steps out of the elevator, "Right, she's got like tens of brains constantly working so there's some left to enjoy life. Maybe I'll try to make a skill orb for multiple minds or something."

"Yeah, that'll be better." A voice speaks from behind Isa.

Isa freaks out looking behind her, "Whaa! Oh it's Lucian."

Lucian folds his arms with a scowl, "It's starting to hurt how much you can ignore me like that."

Isa scratches her hair, "Sorry sorry, I'll keep an eye on my radar more often." Lucian sighs and walks way. Isa looks at Lucian's drooping back in thought, "Sorry little bro, but you blend too well with anything. Huh? Where did he go?" Isa looks around and can't find Lucian anymore. She grabs a snack before heading to the parking lot for a sleek sedan and drives off with it.

Isa drives to a stop on an open road with no one coming, she gets down from the car. She looks around to make sure no one is watching them she takes the keys and space warps before her. She enter it and it's a storage space but looks like a land space. There's flowing water, fresh air, trees and very precious flowers and huge blue dragon scales floating, the land stretches very far…..This is Nytri's storage space….Isa is poking around and Nytri doesn't know.

Isa moves to a hatch in the ground and uses the keys to open it, she takes a small cube from the hatch and returns to reality. She activates the hatch and a luxury tank appears before her, she puts the sedan in her storage space and goes for a joy ride in a tank firing at objects in the distance. She tested out the turrets, cannons, thermonuclear missiles, weight fission rounds and piercing rounds.....

 

 

[AU:INFO

- Isa's sheets turn gold only when she drools in her sleep. For some reason, whatever she spits on becomes has a chance of turning gold.

- In the ranking of Might, Nyx is ranked 9th and Isa is ranked 13th. It's the same ranking that Nytri is not in the top 30.

- The ranking is an estimated rank of strength, power and some other stuff. The Mist Azurians do not have good positions since they can't test their durability because they're Mist.

- Isadora is the only Azurian with a unique skill that allows her to access storage spaces of anyone she knows or have seen. No restrictions on it and she even took someone's crackers fr-ahem.

- Cuel: Title: Slaughter Variant.

- Nytri's storage space is like a mini world, strangely enough she calls it SANDBOX. And yes, Isa is 'borrowing' it without Nytri knowing. Nytri's storage space is not the only one being borrowed.
