Synth humans.
The creation that emerged after the introduction of the new element Prisma found from the depths of uranus.
Tested and used by Helena Prisma herself.
Now powering the synth humans she herself created.
This synth humans are a step further than cloning which boasts mastery in gene modification able to insert mods as the creator desire.
The only difference is that Synth humans doesn't have blood in their veins but Prisma fluid which have 5x higher viscosity than water and none conductor of electricity.
"So your saying..."
The girl holds my chin and lift it allowing me to stare at her blue eyes directly.
"That a hero of some sorts are now possessing the body of my daughter and not only it can use all the modification I added to the body, but also use this thing called 'magic' as well?"
I gave her a slight nod without averting my gaze.
She bit her thumb while staring at the square like object she called 'Tabulet' earlier.
"Color me impressed. As much as I am curious about what happened to my daughter, the truth remains you are now inhabiting it's body. So I will just call you Alecia. As for my name, you can call me Helena or if you want mother or mom."
I smiled awkwardly at her suggestions when I noticed her smiling at me.
"Err... Helena... miss. Where am I?"
I asked her as I noticed that aside from the strange objects around me, the room is oddly bright white and cold in temperature. Well maybe because I am currently naked.
Speaking of body, I noticed that my skin is very smooth.
Although it's unfortunate that my chest feel smaller now. Maybe just fitting perfectly at my hands.
But my body remain slender and quite tall for a female.
Also the absence of body hair is quite amusing.
More importantly, I can feel the lack of spirits around this place is worrisome. Makes me think 'Am I still in the land?'
"You are currently inside my space station. Although it's just the two of us right now save for the other synth humans as the other 3 guys are currently on the mission of gathering data in planet k23 residing in Keter orbit."
Helena, or the girl pretty much naked, explained while doing check on my body as she lifts my hands above checking every part of it.
"So uh... I'm actually at lost. I just woke up and I know nothing of this place nor the things you just said..."
I asked albeit a little embarrassed.
One thing good or atleast what the others mention about my character is my curiosity and the drive to ask without hesitation so I am glad I can use it.
"Well yeah. Judging from your story..."
She finished tapping on the tablet and placed it beside me.
I took a glance and notice a drawing of a body which oddly resembles mine without color and it spins on the object with various numbers on it.
"Alright. As your creator, or atleast the body you currently inhabiting in... I will take care of you. So class time!"
She said walking towards the door.
She stopped and look back before saying.
"Follow me."
I stood and follow her.
The first step felt oddly weird.
I don't know why but this body feels like mine?
Not sure how to explain but I know right away that it feels... perfect.
"Umm... what about clothes?"
I asked as I reached her and walked beside following her pace.
"Oh..."
She stopped and looked at me.
"It's fine. Your body is good so don't hide it."
She shrugs and walk again.
(Great...)
I can only think of that myself as I follow her anyways.
Soon enough, we reached a room.
"Welcome to my office. Just sit anywhere and let me grab some stuff."
She told me and I simply sat on the empty table.
Yes. not on the chair beside it.
But on the table.
Because the chair is too short and the height of the table oddly felt normal to sit into it.
She returned with a cube like object and a rolled blue piece of paper now acting like a long stick.
"Alright Alecia! Lesson time!"
Placing the small box on the floor, she press on it and a floating image appears in the air.
There are various round things floating.
I notice they most of them move in a single direction or perhaps in a single path.
"What are those..."
I asked amazed on the beauty of this.
"They are celestial bodies or in simpler terms, planets.
We are inside the Himel orbit which is located 36 million light years away from our main planet which is named Earth.
My team is currently leading the way to visiting other planets as the year 40 hundreds, There are only 3 main powers known in space exploration.
First there is NASA which is the founding company or group opening the gates to space exploration.
The group are still going for 20 hundreds now since early 2000s.
Next is the Maximillian Future.
The group is the opposite of NASA.
NASA aim to discover the wonder of other planets or celestial bodies while Maximillian Future aim to create superior firepower to defend the main planet.
The group is created after the 'great visit' which cost humanity whooping 30% loss of population from death.
It was a massive invasion but thanks to Maximillian Future and the other group's collaboration, Earth lived to see another day.
As for the other group, as you guessed it. It was me or to be precise, the Prisma Space Exploration or PSE.
The goal of my group is to go to different planets, obtain data and possible resources, and see if tera forming is possible."
She said while using the folded blue papers as pointer while explaining the floating scenes unfolding in the air thanks to the mysterious box.
"Now, to explain further, I am making synth humans as a combat power to help us in exploring the unknown.
your body, or I should call it no.4 is supposedly my 4th creation planned to become the leader of the away unit coming in this station few months from now.
I armed that body with enhanced physical, mental processing capacity, endurance, and other skills beneficial for surviving the harsh climates.
Fortunately, you possesed that body.
Under normal circumstances, I can't let a synth human without self decision nor ability to formulate self made solutions to lead, which is why I am in the process of modifying that body until now.
You, who are a so called 'chosen one' and capable of weilding so called 'magic' can surely replace no.4.
However, I won't force you as you have something synth humans have."
She said before walking towards me.
Her finger touched my forehead.
"You have a will and ability to decide for yourself."
(Right... I...)
I look at her and notice her face shift from serious to a smile.
"That said, I consider you my creation. My daughter. So it would be great if you can just assist me here and stay with me. On the other hand, I would be grateful to you not only me but the entire humanity if you helped us with your power in facing the unknown."
She suddenly knelt infront of me, place the rolled paper beside her and lower her head enough to reach the floor.
"Please help us with your power Alecia."
She asked seriously making me panic.
"Please raise your head!"
I immediately help her back and let her sit.
"I swore before I die that next time, I will decide for my own and not simply obey what is obligated of me. Just like when the church informed me that I am the chosen one. However, your goal is for the sake of many. As the former hero of my last world, I stand with your vision. So please allow me to assist you in anyway I can."
I gave her my reply as I hold both her hands.
"Thank you... thank you..."
She keep repeating those words as I gently pull her into my embrace noticing her shed tear.
(I'm not sure why my response made her react like this. But somehow, I'm glad I made this decision.)
