Hector is in his room still making a call with his family, it's past 12 and they're happily chatting.
"So, big bro, any plans for tomorrow?" His sister asks. The next day is a Saturday so he has no class.
"None," Hector says, "Just going to work on my fourth-year project. Then I'll be done with university."
His sister looks at him with sparkly eyes, "Waaoow, can I have a look at your project when you finish?"
"Of course," Hector says, "I'll even send pictures of it for mum and dad to also see it."
"AWESOME!" his sister says.
Hector smiles, "I'm certain you'll love it." Light from the window falls on him, he looks out the window towards the university. "What is that?" he gets up looking at the light beam brighten the sky and reaching the clouds. He stares at it then it dawns on him, "That's the assembly hall!" He turns to his phone to see his sister with a worried face, "Sorry Bridget, I have to go."
"What?! Hector, what's goin-" Hector hangs up, he grabs a jacket and runs out of his room towards the assembly hall.
Hector enters campus running at full speed, "My project work is at the storage room. I hope it's alright." He hid his project work there so it wouldn't be sabotaged. He sees the entrance and runs towards the door. He opens it and enters the assembly hall while a shadow slips out behind him.
"What is this?" He sees a strange object lying on the floor, he observes how the sides of the cube are moving and the cube is floating. The cube starts to scan him and he takes a step back, "What's going on?!"
[Scanning complete. Target has been verified to be human. Commencing installation of SSTM DC cube in soul space.]
"What?" Hector is scared, he heard a voice coming from the cube. The cube then shoots towards his head, a strong headache hits him. "Arck!" his vision is covered by a blue screen then he falls losing consciousness.
.............
Outside the assembly hall by the statue before the entrance, Sivendy is standing there looking at the 'host'. Sivendy turns around to leave then stops, "I can't just leave him here, it's too cold for a human. He'll probably get sick or something." She walks into the assembly hall standing beside Hector.
Sivendy lifts his face then lights shoot from her eyes into Hectors eyes. "I'll take this chance to learn this universe's language and culture. It's also good to learn everything about the host." Memories start to appear in Sivendy's mind, she sees all Hector's memories. "Poor guy." Sivendy takes him up, "I'll get you home." She vanishes and appears in Hector's room, she lays him on his bed.
"Now, time for me to create my identity." Sivendy changes as she now looks like a normal human, she's a bit shorter than Hector and her fangs are small. "I need to make a family, get into his school and observe as close as possible." Sivendy vanishes from Hectors room and appears in the sky.
A plane flies over her head, Sivendy smiles. "Nice, this world isn't back in the times. But it might be a bit difficult to hide....Naaa." Sivendy's eyes glow, the place she is becomes invisible. No technology can detect her.
"For a cover family," Sivendy folds her arms, "I'll need individuals capable of blending in and working to afford my tuition. Having extra help will do since I can make a company and get the money."
Sivendy stretches her hand forward, "SUMMONING RUNES." Letters and symbols appear before her forming a giant circle, the circle increases to 2,3,4 then 5. Sivendy feels her energy drain, "Tch, energy density is 0. Living here is going to be tough."
A purple screen appears to her right, "I want people who can fake being a family and form a company. The Celestial spirit of wealth will fit perfectly for the company, I'll send him a message if he's willing to he-" *DING DING* Sivendy grins, "Looks like he's more eager than I thought. With him, he'll be able to build a company from dirt. He did sell a tree branch for 150 gold coins."
Sivendy scrolls down the screen, "There're very few capable of playing the part of family, I'll get the gearhead 2.0 automata as family and workers. Alright, this line up is good. TARGET SUPREME TIER CELESTIAL SPIRIT, SIKANI." The circles form a sphere as it increases to 9, "I don't know the celestial spirits of this universe, so….." The circles are now 10.
"As for the automata," Sivendy says scrolling through the screen and customizing them. "This'll do. TARGET 50 GEARHEAD 2.0 AUTOMATA." The circles increase to 11 as the sky brightens but no one besides her can see it.
Energy pours out of Sivendy, some goes to the runic circle before her while the rest being 90% spread. Sivendy has a sweat on her brow, "This is tiring, I've nearly exhausted 40% of my energy. ACTIVATE!" the runic circle before her shatters, the sky ruptures making a hole. Before Sivendy, 50 small runic platforms appear before her. Humanoid automata start to appear on it as their parts assemble.
In the sky above Sivendy, light is seen coming deep from the darkness inside. A figure slowly descends from the hole, the figure is over 40 meters in size, male and covered in gold. The figure has the aura of literal gold coins floating around him, the figure is humanoid in a business suit, very handsome with gold eyes.
Sivendy tilts her head looking at the figure. The figure releases immense aura and pressure causing a natural disaster class hurricane but Sivendy clears it. The figure bellows, "Sikani, the master of wealth has arrived!"
Sivendy chuckles clapping, "Nice suit by the way." She says, "How did they make it that big?"
Sikani smirks then he shrinks down to a height of 1.8 meters. "Wealth does all." Sikani says holding Sivendy's chin looking into her eyes. "I got your message. It was either this or going to battle with my Empress."
Sivendy raises a brow surprised saying, "There's another war in the Celestial realm?"
Sikani looks down on the earth, he shrinks his aura and energy to conserve it. "Yes," he said, "Your Master came to end the war but we got new enemies. Well, she got them. They came from far and wide to challenge your Master and my Empress turned it into a business battle, they pay her to fight your Master." He smiles.
SIvendy shakes her head waving her hands, "Wait wait wait," she said, "They're paying, to get beaten?!"
"That's the Celestial realm," Sikani said, he turns looking at the automata behind him. "No day passes without a war starting, but this is a good thing. At least now the casualties are 0." He turns to face Sivendy, "Your message said to build a company as a cover operation to support your cover family, right?"
"Yes." Sivendy said, "The host is in a rich kid school and I don't have any hypnosis skills. Even if I did, keeping it up for a long time is torture."
"Alright," Sikani said, "Who do I start with?"
Sivendy points at the automata, "I'll take 2 and leave the rest to you." The automata finally appear, 2 stand beside Sivendy and the rest stand before Sikani.
"Nice." Sikani said grinning.
"You're not going to do anything illegal, right?" Sivendy said, Sikani looks at Sivendy from the corner of his eyes. Sivendy smiles wryly, "Just asking."
Sikani sighs. "I'm not the spirit of corruption, he's imprisoned for...You're better off not knowing." He smiles, "Well, go get em, tiger." He flies off with the 48 automata following him.
"Now, time to work on my admission." Sivendy said, "Can I leave that to you, mum and dad?"
"Certainly, daughter." Automata 1 said. This looks male.
"While we're at it," Automata 2 said, "I'll work on accommodation and other necessities." This looks female.
"Thanks." Sivendy said. "I'm heading to the north and set the beacon." Sivendy flies off.
"Everything will be ready, when you return." The 2 automata say at the same time.
