Chapter 487: Full Immersion Chamber (2/2)

With the buzz of the Doors of Transcendence and the Levatus brought on Earth, the wheels of progress began rolling in.

Leaving the island for a moment to finally configure the Virtual Gaming device, I brought not only Yuko and Yumiko with me but also Hikari; the Heroine who was fond of anything sci fi-ish.

”Is this true, Daisuke?! Gaming Device? It's not just a simulation device anymore?” Hikari's glasses glinted with excitement as she circled around the… Full Immersion Chamber.

It was called like that because of its structure.

I was informed that the prototype was only a helmet and a CPU with Energy Storage attached.

But now… it's like a normal Absorption Room.

The only difference was that there's an upright bed inside.

Beside it was a thin pole where the Simulation Headgear was hanging. The Headgear was now reduced to something like a VR device that was existing on Earth even before I was exposed to the Otherworlds except, it was only a pair of glasses with some kind of sensors that would be pressed onto an individual's temple to initiate the activation sequence of the device.

”Right, it is… Don't be too excited. I'll let you be the alpha tester once I'm done configuring it.” I answered Hikari.

Although she's already aware that I wasn't the same Daisuke she interacted with before, her excitement over this Full Immersion Chamber overtook that.

In any case, looking at her girl being that excited, it was enough to influence me. I was also hoping for something like this before… so… my memories of this life are thoroughly influencing me now.

Besides, Yuko and Yumiko, who were not that hyped for this Full Immersion Chamber,  were also somewhat excited but not because of the Chamber but because they're seeing me naturally having fun.

”In our previous life, you're too upright and ice-cold serious. If not for Jayna and Avelin who could melt that seriousness of yours, Perhaps, I could only count in my hand the times where you were having fun naturally. Now, however… I like seeing you like this, Dai-kun.” Yuko said as she drew near and helped put on the Headgear to me.

”Yuko, is it fine for me to ask you about your memories with Daisuke? I want to hear it… Your past lives.” Yumiko also moved to help.

Well, I had this made to be easily worn so there's really no need for them to help me… but I couldn't just stop them so… I stood still, letting the two girls fix it the way they wanted to.

”Past life? Wha-- Right. You are a reincarnation, master.” On the side, Hikari suddenly blurted as she left her trance of being too excited over the device.

”Hikari. How many times did I tell you to quit calling me master? You're already calling me Daisuke, earlier.”

I only taught her for less than a week since the events at the World of Elements escalated quickly… but for her to continue calling me master…

”Heh. A master for a day is a master for a lifetime. Don't you know that phrase, master?” Hikari smirked and even made a gesture of kowtowing three times.

The girl was also reading those works, huh? Even if we're already somewhat like those immortals in the fictions who had longer lives… I guess they're still a classic. I see. Let's incorporate that as well.

”Alright. You win, disciple. Stand back for now, I'll go and start this.”

”Yes, master!”

Watching that exchange between us, Yuko and Yumiko were somewhat puzzled, nonetheless, they both left the Chamber like I said and closed it from the outside.

However, before I could activate the device, Yuko's voice entered my ears.

”Hikari, why don't you become Daisuke's Companion?”

That girl… She's at it again.

”Huh? No. I'm Master's disciple. Master and disciple can't be in a relationship.”

”Where did you hear that?”

”Here.”

After saying that, Hikari produced a computer tablet and passed it to Yuko.

”What's this?”

”Webnovel… Heh. Ask Daisu-- err, master. He's also reading that.”

”Hikari, being his companion doesn't mean you'll be his lover.”

Yumiko, why you too?

Ah, Forget it… I could still exploit the Companion feature of my system anyway. If she's okay with it then… she'd be a welcome addition because of her Ability, Skillaster

”Is that so? I'll think about it. But for now, I'm content being his disciple, I still have a lot to copy… err learn from him.”

Alright. That slip of the tongue gave her away… What she wanted were my skills.
