Chapter 256 V Correspondence

Aldrich nodded as his laptop finished booting up It was s were these days, probably trying to market to a sense of futurism to make up for such an uncertain present Or maybe it just looked cool, either way, it worked

The white coloring and industrial grey dot logo indicated it was eye-tech property, the leading corporation in consu a cool three thousand credits And most importantly, modified so that it did not have the liberal amounts of spyware and bloatware ja can access the sue?" said Valera She leaned forward like a curious child, her red and black eyes narrowed in scrutinizing intensity

"No, there's this virtual space called the Net that holds all that It's a place where everyone can upload inforation of it allthere," said Aldrich

"I do not follow," said Valera She hung her head in shame "I am sorry for the incompetence"

"Don't be sorry You'll pick up on it over time Here, let me explain it better terlanced over at Dia himself and Chrysa donuts, but Aldrich did not want to spill info about his and Valera's otherworldly natures

So he spoke telepathically 'You know the soul streaht?'

'Of course,' said Valera

'It's a massive spiritual shere practically every mortal soul flows in when their physical bodies die Because of that, it's packed with information, the memories and experiences and countless many across vast stretches of time

Spiritcallers can dip into the soul stream and fish out memories from any of the countless souls in there Atleast, until they're wiped clean and entered into reincarnation'

'Ah, I see, so this Net works on siht Except you don't have to die to add info to it It's completely in the realm of physical'

'But I cannot see the Net as a space?'

'It's coible It's called virtual space A little difficult to fully explain Once we have tiure things out when you spend time on it'

Valera nodded excitedly 'And I do not need any ritual to access it? No rant me access? Siht,' said Aldrich 'Not just one of these, but smaller handheld ones called phones as well Practically everyone goes in and out of the Net; it's part of their daily lives now'

'Humanity has always been fractured,' said Aldrich 'That's one downside of et to seeThey scrah, and all too often, they stuhout history'

'Perhaps you can change that, lint in her eye

'What do you rant them all immortality? All undeath? If you are to be their conqueror, then would it not be wondrous to have an undying kingdom? One that spans across an entire realm?

You may even reach out towards the stars, toward other realms like the ones the old Gods or demons hailed from You could have it all in your palht out of a villain tyrant's playbook Like some kind of immortal overlord,' said Aldrich

'But that is what you are, no?' said Valera 'A lich, immortal walker of death And in ti a future where Aldrich ruled everything 'Lord over all realht you considered retiring at one point,' said Aldrich 'Living a quiet life'? ??? a ???e?

Valera hugged Aldrich's ar it into her chest 'I can do that too, ht for your conquest as well, because I know deep in my heart of hearts that you are fit to rule over it all'
