Chapter 630 Honeymoon in The Shadow Realm (8)
**AYO, AS I WAS FINISHING THIS CHAPTER, Joe_jo_3480 DROPPED A FUCKING SPACECRAFT ON OUR HEADS!!! HYPE IN THE CHAT!!**
[[Try me, babe; I can just throw myself into the never-ending backlog of projects and experiments I have; that will occupy me just fine.]] Looking up from the device in his hand, Cynrik shot her a look that practically screamed, "Fuck around and Find out," shutting Selene up instantly.
[[TSK, that's fucking annoying]] after a couple of minutes of hacking, Cynrik clicked his tongue and thought aloud.
[[What? Can't break into the software?]] Tilting her head to the side as she walked up alongside him, Selene chirped.
[[No, I got in, no problem, but there are no outgoing or incoming signals. The Divine Zone and abundant particles seem to have shut down all communication with the outside world.]]
[[When we left the Shadow Realm, I had already found it weird that I didn't have a signal or texts from Brance, but I paid that fact no attention; now I understand why.]] He said while opening his inventory and tossing the power down Watcet inside.
[[Hold on, does that mean we don't have to worry about the devices inside of the Vault sending out that signal you were talking about?]] Crossing her arms under her breasts, Selene watched as Cynrik went around to every one of the puddles around the room to retrieve, clean, and hack into all the unbound Watcets.
[[Yes and no, although we won't have to worry about them immediately sending our data to whatever uplink platform they use, it will still happen when the Divine Zone dissolves… whenever the hell that is.]]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[[So our objective stays the same as before I had this information, we need to locate the control room or security office, and deactivate all of the surveillance gear, then we have unrestrained access to the Vault, come on, there are still more people-puddles scattered around the house, and I have some ideas for the extra Watcets, especially since they are the most expensive and up-to-date versions on the market.]]
Waving his hand to direct Selene to follow him, Cynrik left the sitting room and, with his woman in tow, navigated the Mansion to where he could see more people-puddles.
While they explored the building and retrieved any Watcets they came across, neither missed the opportunity to steal anything of considerable value, from expensive-looking jewelry to large paintings.
Not even the multiple Holo-Tvs, tablets, and computers were spared and ended up in their inventories since Cynrik could easily wipe their drives and make them good as new.
Finally, after an hour of exploring and looting, Cynrik and Selene arrived before a large metal door on the third floor.
[[Hm…well, I can't say they don't have brains; this family used a similar protocol to the one I put on our condo…]] Cynrik mused as he brought up his arm and hacked into the large touch-tablet wall panel.
TSSSSSSSSTT
And with a loud, depressurized hiss, the metal door slid into the wall, revealing a sizable room filled with monitors and displays.
[[Holy shit, it looks like a spaceship command bridge in here,]] Selene stated in awe as she followed Cynrik into the room like a puppy.
[[Meh, I've seen better…still, it's a good thing outside communication is down because even with our stealth skills, our shadows still appear on camera if we get too complacent; anyway, it's going to take some time for me to break into the system, you are free to go rummage about and try to locate any swipeable gubbins.]]
Sitting at the sizeable captain-style command chair, Cynrik linked his Watcet to the console and began typing swiftly on the multiple keyboards.
[[Mmm, okay, I'll also see if there is anything for me to cook up, we can only eat field rations for so long, and I am dying for a good meal. With how wealthy this family was, I am sure there is a bunch of decent Creature meat we can munch on.]]
[[OH, we also found that wine cellar earlier, so we can bev it up a little with dinner or, err…I guess lunch since it's only 2 pm.]]
Leaning around the captain's chair, Selene gave Cynrik a peck on the cheek and ran out of the security office to begin her search.
Watching her leave and run around the Mansion on one of the security cameras, Cynrik smiled lightly and couldn't help but chuckle, seeing how hyper Selene was acting.
'Sigh, it's going to take me some time to get used to being so physically affectionate with her; it has been a long while since I had a connection so deep. Still, I don't hate it.'
Reaching up and touching his cheek, part of his attention was directed to the events of the last couple of days with Selene.
'Never thought I'd get married, let alone be okay with having kids. Heh, I, who was always so against being tied down, have ended up settling down in my second life; maybe I am getting soft.'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCynrik thought, but soon he felt a gentle smack on his forehead, and he looked up only to find a pouting Tobs had just kicked him in the head.
-It's called growing up and maturing, you moron. I know your Earth love life was a series of failed long-term relationships, followed by a never-ending string of short ones or one-night stands, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for you to grow as a person.-
-Still, the you of now has grown so much from when we first met, hell you were practically an emotionless robot slash killing machine back then who only cared about Brance.-
-I wouldn't call the changes massive, but you have become less…burn the world and less stabby… so I guess that can be considered an improvement.-
With a shrug of her shoulders and a flap of her tiny wings, Tobs landed atop Cynrik's head and sat down cross-legged.
'Oi, what do you mean I was "burn the world"…I get the stabby part, but what are you on about Tobs? Are you trying to say I used to be a pyromaniac who wanted to burn everything in sight?'
Rolling his eyes and looking back at the array of monitors, Cynrik's hands never stopped moving, a perk of his multiple attention channels.
-Pfft, it wasn't that long ago when your first thought was to scorch everything around, lest we forget about how you set an ENTIRE HOTEL filled with trapped children on fire as a distraction.-
'And I would do it again tomorrow if it meant getting out of there in one piece; that was a valid and useful plan, and you know that.'
-Valid and useful doesn't always morally align with the rest of your group Cynrik, especially Brance. Only Selene would go along with it because, like you, she doesn't give a shit about anyone other than the members of MyrkLys, but even they pale in comparison to you.-
'Heh, my little Yandere wifey. I can't wait to see her fuck up any whore who tries getting close to me…whew that will be a scene for the ages.'
