Chapter 11 - The Institute's Schemes
An holographic image tore the air. Visible only to David due to the fact that it had been registered and coded with his gene prints. Making it quite impossible for others with different genetic make up or codes as him to view it’s contents.
“Uhn?” David was thoroughly intrigued since it was his first time with such technology.
Gazing at it’s contents, David saw a few series of options. Okay maybe not few, it was a lot than he was used to.
The options were all just placed randomly that David almost felt his brain buzz in exhaustion it was much different than that of the handphones on earth.
“Too messy, arrange all of the information according to each categories they belong to.” David hurriedly stated. He couldn’t help but wonder. They created an awesome tech like this but they couldn’t even place the information in a proper order. Dav frowned, obviously a bit confused.
“Confirmed. Please hold on David, this would only take a few seconds.”
His AI replied.
The AI in his imprint rapidly got to work as bits and pieces of information started gathering at different specific locations.
What surprised Dav though was the fact that they really looked physical almost as if he could feel them, even smell them.
“Interesting.” David thought with a smile on his face. With his command taking place, he finally got the system arranged as easily and as best as he could and after a few minutes of thorough adjustment, it looked more like the ones in handphones back on earth.
Now, I can’t keep calling it my personal AI now can i?
‘What name should I give her? Lizzy? Sounds common. How bout Eliza? ‘ Dav contemplated while the fingers of his left hand fingers kept moving as if he had something he kept twirling between each fingers.
‘Ha! I get it now, Hazel.’ David smiled proudly. it was the first time he came up with a good name.
“Since we would be together for the better part of the years, I have thought of a name for you.” David was still on the bench as he continued twirling his fingers.
“That is incorrect, I’m a property of the institution given to assist the new students to help cope with their situations, just for a certain period of time.” The AI’s robotic voice interrupted David before he could continue
David couldn’t help but frown upon hearing those words. He had assume that after graduation, the students would be allowed to take some certain things from the institute, but it seems like he was dead wrong about that.
“Process complete, please check.” the AI’s voice rang out once more, pulling Dav out from his speculations.
His Imprint shone a light blue light as the holographic images took to the air. The contents wasn’t as messy as it has been previously and with his tampering, it was close to perfect for his taste.
David tried tapping it, his hands felt like they touched something solid, he could really feel the smooth texture of the border lines
David gasped in amazement. The technology of this world had really advanced y several degrees. Although he wasn’t aware of the mechanism used, that didn’t stop him from admiring it.
Tapping open the library icon, A row of books instantly appeared before him, it was as if he was in a real library.
Not really a fan of books, David dropped it, returning to his homepage.
He saw ‘My status’ written on one part of the screen. That sparked Dav’s curiousity, he tapped on it.
[Name: David Syntex

An ‘oh’ sound escaped his lips. He was pleasantly surprised at the status. But was also disappointed at the comment left behind. It contains things he was already aware of. For example, It contains information about his talents grade which he already knew as three stars.
Likewise, it contained information about his height, weight, and race.
Sweeping his eyes through the status panel, Dav saw something different.
There was an additional Gyno points written there. Which indicates that he currently has 100 gyno points left in his account.
He had been wondering what the hell Gyno points was after the money grumbling AI tried extorting of them but he forgot about that after.
He clicked on the Gyno points and the description popped up. Which stated that it was the currency currently used in the institute and as long as one has enough gyno points, one could purchase literary anything from the institute.
Which earned a raised eyebrow from Dav. It made him quite skeptical about it but since the institute allowed that sentence in his status page, it might seem to be true.
Before he could do anything else, he heard a familiar voice call out to him from beside him.
“Hey, David!” Nihyuh ran towards Dav swiftly.
“Oh, hey.” Dav replied back casually. He was engrossed by the functions of his interface. And he also had the mind to stroll a bit around the institute, trying to check get used to the institute as fast as possible.
Since he had enough time on his hands, he wasn’t really in a hurry.
“Where have you been all this while? Searched for you through out the whole of yesterday but I couldn’t get a single glimpse of you.” Nihyuh was a bit angry.
He really had a good reason for searching for David. He had been looking for him since yesterday but to no avail.
But now he saw Dav, the guy obviously didn’t appreciate him coming to meet him.
“I was looking for you to inform you that the institute had started lectures since yesterday! We were decieved by them, I don’t really know why they would do something that devious but it is slightly obvious they want to keep some people out from attending the lectures.
The week long holidays is obviously a trap from the institute, I’ve contemplated for a very long while but I still couldn’t find out what they would gain from doing something like that. They would only lost potential students.
Not all the students knows about this information though. Only a selected few knows about the information and even I knew about it only because I mistakenly eavesdropped on someone’s conversation.” Nihyuh rambled on and on.
David stood there, listening to what Nihyuh had to say. Instantly, his heart lurched and he frowned. if what Nihyuh said was true, then there was something else going on.
He really hated being decieved by people.
David thought things through. And after a while, he immediately came up with some speculations.
Those who failed the exams and also couldn’t attend the class would be disqualified and then turned into labour workers for a few months as punishment.
The institute needed more labour workers, which was why they were willing to deceive people so that after a week holiday, the ones with slightly more mediocre talents wouldn’t be able to keep up, causing them to fail the courses, exiling them to a lifetime of workmanship.
As David thought if this, his eyes squinted immediately. It seems like the institute wasn’t a really peaceful place after all. Just the first week, and something like this is happening.
His second speculation was that the students would get an enormous amount of gains if they attend the institute for this week. Although he wasn’t really sure which is which, either of the two options one, nothing would stop him from attending the lectures.
David instantly felt a headache coming in.. ‘Things really won’t be easy here.’
