BXBX NOVEL Chapter 63 - Nanomites Tech.
The twins looked at each other not knowing what was going on in Emma\'s head. Their muscles tensed and their hearts raced. Fear hides at the corner of their eyes. \'Please let him be trustworthy and accept us…\' They prayed in their hearts.
\'I can\'t continue if our last hope rejects us…again… Is our fate really that bad…? Can\'t we find someone to help us…\' Jimena wept in her heart.
Emma\'s quietness made the twins begin to sweat. Arce clenched his fist, trying to stay strong while Jimena could barely hold to her tears. Every second, Emma remained quiet and became a pin in her heart. However, Emma was oblivious to what the twins were passing through.
>>I don\'t know why and who betrayed you. But, because of your betrayal that shouldn\'t make you into such a cruel person. I won\'t like it when you turn them into your puppet.
\'Are you stupid or what! Did I say I want to turn them into my puppet?\'
>>…Speechless.
\'I said I won\'t hesitate to turn a bad person into my puppet. But not them. They didn\'t do anything that affected me. What I worry about is safety measures so that betrayal will not happen. Besides, the bond that I\'m talking about will be a contract thing between us.\'
>>I—I don\'t know… Sorry for getting you wrong.
\'Forget. I know you\'re just worried about me not to walk in the path of no return.\'
Hmm. Hmm.
Emma cleared his throat. He looked at the twins and saw the fear in their eyes. He only sighed in his heart. "I felt your pain. But, I won\'t act because I pity or whatnot…"
The twins listen to Emma with rapt attention. They looked at Emma like their prey, holding each other\'s hands. Emma continued, ignoring their look.
"Whatever you\'re thinking. I\'m not going to do it. So, you can relax. You can stay but I\'m yet to accept you under me. I will have to think and put some things into consideration."
A smile crept onto the face of the twins. Under the table, they caressed each other\'s hands. They would accept anything as long Emma will not abuse or turn them to their enemy. Arce opened his mouth but Emma raised his hand.
"Don\'t thank me or whatever. Before we leave for Vulture city. I should have made up my mind by then. So, I will tell you my final decision." He declared.
The twins nodded, accepting the decision. They didn\'t expect Emma to accept them immediately because of their sad past. But, since Emma didn\'t try to torture or sell them to their enemy. That gave them hope.
Emma left the twins and went to the bedroom. He sat and took a deep breath. \'I have received so many notifications. It is time to check everything\'

>>Host, please keep up the good work
Seeing the notification, Emma had a wide smile on his face. He stared at the notification for a couple of seconds before he regained his wit. \'The system is really something...\'
….
"With this, I can push my plan forward by a large margin…" Emma murmured. \'I should try to buy some Nano mites. But can I get nano mites in Thango?\' He furrowed.
"I should learn one of the two technology"
\'Learn\'
>>Ding*
>>Would you like to learn Nanomites Fusion Contract Technology? Yes/No.
\'Yes\'
The usual occurrence happened and Emma had mentally prepared as the stream of data flowing into his brain. Though, his head became foggy. It was for a few seconds. After the aftermath of the new information. He took a deep breath to arrange the memory. With a single thought, all the info about the Nanomites Fusion Contract flushed to his mind.
After a couple of minutes of studying contract technology. Emma became aware of where he needed to work upon. With his high INT and WIS. It was quite easy for him to understand the terms and fundamental equations in the technology. Besides, with the introduction of Tri-Ionization Plasmatic Fusion Energy and with his comprehensive research. He now had in-depth knowledge of some of the system\'s technological terms.
\'Since, I\'m quite free. I should try to comprehend the contract technology and look out for the Nanomites.\'
>>Don\'t forget that you haven\'t used your lottery ticket…
\'I know. My hand Is quite full right now. Also, I\'m currently building my lady luck for a higher chance of choosing the best among the best…\'
>>What kind of lady luck are you talking about…? Lady luck my ass.
\'Thank God, you don\'t have an ass. Else it could probably destroy my luck.\'
>>…Speechless.
Emma left the bedroom and went to the main room. He saw the twins watching a live show on the TV. Seeing Emma, they raised their brow with an inquisitive gaze. However, Emma didn\'t look at them nor stop walking. He picked his laptop and went back to his room without uttering a word. The twins looked at each other.
"What is that…?" Jimena whispered.
Arce shrugged, turning his attention back to the live show. Inside the room, Emma had forgotten about the twins. He already started searching for a company that deals with Nanomites.
"I hope I can get Nanomites in Reaper City \'\' he murmured while his hand never stopped typing.
>>If you don\'t get the Nanomites in this City. You can probably get it in another City.
\'You don\'t understand. In Thango Continent, Reaper City is the most industrious City. Why do you think I spend so many hours traveling to this forsaken goddamn far city? When many cities are surrounding Vulture City? Simple. Because in terms of resources. No city can compare to Reaper City. This city is the major hub of Technological resources. So, if I can\'t find it here. Then, probably, I can\'t find it in Thango.\'
>>T—That really something.
\'Yeah. Those greedy bastards control everything tightly…\'
Emma\'s hands stopped abruptly on the keyboard. He squinted his brow. He looked at the piece of information on his laptop screen. \'The DarkKnight family are an ancient family with many rare resources in their collection. So, someone discovered Nanomites as part of their collections…\' He twisted his lips.
>>How true is this information…
\'That I don\'t know. This is just a rumor.\'
>>What are you going to do…? Are you going to buy it from them or what?
\'To buy it from them is quite impossible. This kind of family didn\'t lack money. What I can use against them is valuable resources in exchange for the Nanomites if they exist in their collections… Though.\'
>>But you have nothing valuable for exchange…
\'I know. That\'s where I\'m lost….\'
A slight sound echoed in the room. The sound was rhythmical like a music note. \'What should I do?\' The sound echoed louder. \'I can\'t let go of this.\'
>>Why don\'t you contact your new female friend…?
\'Who… Are you talking about Lola?\'
>>Yeah. She would probably have a way to get her hand on Nanomites.
\'I already have a plan for Lola. She is vital for my next plan of action. So, I must look for alternatives.\'
>>Then, what are you going to do…?
\'Then, that left me with only one choice\'
>>What!?
\'I need to steal it.\'
>>Are you for real…?
\'Do you think I\'m kidding right now?\'
>>So, you\'re going to turn into a thief.
\'We steal from one another every day. The façade of stealing from each other is what differs. Is the rich and powerful hegemon not stealing from us when they control all the resources of this world for themselves? Hmm? They flushed those that couldn\'t benefit them to Thango while all the valuable resources were being mined freely, returning nothing and doing nothing to Thango to help the people. While they use it to beautify their gold house. So, what are they doing if they\'re not stealing, hmm?\'
>>T—That….
\'Don\'t get me wrong. I don\'t fault what they\'re doing is wrong. I\'m not a hypocrite. Because I also have my share of stolen goods in my bag. Only a naïve person will think the world should be fair. Since, the creation of time. Nothing is fair. Likewise, the world we live in. The strong rule and dominate the weak.\'
>>….
\'The strong are meant to extort from the poor. And the strong rule and stole from the weak in many ways. Financially, physically, morally, people and health-wise, and more. Anyone that controls these things is a powerful individual. So, if I steal from the DarkKnight family. What I did is… I steal physically. Don\'t you agree
>>…I—I don\'t know what to say…. I\'m speechless…
>>I don\'t know if you have this insight into the way of the world.
Emma puffs his chest outward. \'I\'m not stupid as you think?\'
>>B—But how…?
\'Don\'t ask me how. What I need to do now is strategies on how to steal my Nanomites.\'
>>Your Nanomites…!?
\'Of Course… since it will be mine very soon. So, it\'s mine already. Don\'t you agree?\'
>>Stop asking stupid questions…
