“Don’t you know what would happen if the process of the artificial dungeon creation were to fall into the wrong hands?” Jill asked me as if the answer was obvious.
“No, I don’t know. Please enlighten me,” I know what Jill was hinting at but I did not believe that was even a risk worth considering.
“If wrong people learn to create artificial soul energy veins they can use it to create artificial dungeons anywhere at their wimp, do you know how dangerous that could be?” Jill explained what she thought would be a problem if the wrong people learned to create an artificial soul energy vein.
“Are you even hearing yourself? As a reputed researcher, you should know that was not of concern. You said it yourself a lot of pure and concentrated soul energy is required to achieve this. Who in their right mind would will to was good money just to terrorize people? If they plan to use that to terrorize the world with artificial soul energy veins then they better be loaded and not be afraid of going bankrupt right after,” I know an artificial soul energy vein creation method can be misused in a lot of ways but the method is so expensive, using it would be like trying to kill your enemy by choking with your bank balance that would be pretty stupid.
I bet even the royal families cannot afford such an expensive way to deal with their enemy. If not for the high promising returns on the silver milk powder, the southern royal family would never agree for Luna to conduct a dungeon relocation experiment.
“You are the stupid one. Do you think after a few years of research on it they will not manage to make the process of creating the artificial soul energy vein cheaper and more efficient?” Jill cussed as she did not like the tone the boy was talking to her in, as if she was a washed-up conspiracy nut.
“Wow, aren’t you being subtle about your feelings? No matter how cheaper and more efficient the artificial soul energy vein creation process gets it will still not be cheaper than killing your enemy by yourself or hiring assassins. Besides, don’t the demon worshipers do that already? Look how far they have gotten,” Unless pure and concentrated soul energy was being handed out for free artificial soul energy vein creation couldn’t become the next big thing to terrorize the world. If Jill cannot get that then, they say all geniuses have quirks that must be Jill’s.
Besides, demon worshipers have done that for centuries they have used rituals to summon the devil and demons to terrorize the world. Yes, they did a lot of harm but it was not the end of humanity, it was the demon worshippers who were on the brink of extinction.
All I am trying to say was making the creation process of artificial soul energy veins public was not as bad an idea as Jill made it sound.
“Y-you… I… you don’t know what you are talking about,” Jill was pissed but she knew I was right, you take history as an indication, introducing the artificial soul energy creation process to the world will bring a drastic change but it would not be enough to threaten the very existence of humanity.
In the end, she was overreacting as with drastic change comes a lot of loss which did not want to be known for. Before demon worshipers were suppressed they had managed to set the world on fire and it took humanity’s best and finest a while to put it off. The same was true for her discovery of the artificial soul energy vein creation process, it will bring choice but humanity was strong enough to withstand it.
“Get used to that feeling, because in my company you will be feeling like that a lot. I how you are capable of being friends with someone smarter than you,” I hate hitting people when they are down but Jill had called me stupid earlier I wouldn’t be me if I let it go.
“Friends? You took my virginity, licked every nook and corner of my body like it was leftover batter from a Christmas dinner and now you want to friendzone me. You are not getting off that easy,” Jill said with a scary smile on her face, it was hard to tell if she was talking for real or being sarcastic.
“We agreed that was casual,” I said as I started sweating through my shirt, with my physique it has been a while since I sweated like this.
I can not stop myself from thinking of Anna’s reaction when she learns about this. I know Anna and I were not in a relationship but I did string her along and did not mind using her status for my convenience. So I cannot help but feel guilty. Is this how women feel when a man makes a move on them after treating them to an expensive dinner, obligated?
Fuck, I knew cashing the Anna check would come to bite me with interest yet I went ahead and cashed it. There was medicine for regret, I could only brace myself and face what was coming.
“Hahaha, haha Oh my god, you should look at your face. It is so funny, ” Jill laughed at me as I dread imagining my future where she gets clingy in Anna’s presence and I have to say that future was not pretty.
“What is so funny? We did agree on that,” The only reason I went ahead and had a physical relationship with Jill was that she was hot, but also because we agreed that what happens in the dungeon stays in the dungeon.
“Yes, we did agree,” Jill said, but she continued to laugh at my face. I did not know what to make of it. I felt like she did not mean what she said.
