[Affinities - Terrav, Faeun, Haendro, Aestro, Tarfa, Ichor, Animus, Chronos, Sol, Psychae]
'Only a fool would abstain from choosing Psychae'. Locking it in I set my eyes on the next problem. With the assumption that all of this was a prelude to a space-farer life, I had to make sure I was ready.
I locked in Haendro mostly for survival. Locked in Aestro as I had a lot of ideas I wanted to achieve with it. Finally was the affinity Sol. See I realized I lacked Mana and Astral which meant I couldn't even use these affinities if I wished. A problem made by me fashioning two organs for precisely this. Of course at the time I didn't think I would be getting an affinity but now.
"Man, am I glad".
I locked Sol in. Now many would wonder why I picked two elements when I lacked mana. It was simple. Back to basic physics, elements reacted with factors we knew as energy. Specifically heat energy. Now I wasn't using the two elements for more perfect uses. But simply for their perfect uses in survival and utility.
With Haendro, Aestro, Sol, and Psychae locked in, I looked over my choices and checked the cost.
[Haendro, Aestro, Sol and Psychae]
[Volerian Star Fughter]
[ETA -1]
-[Cost - Rare/Epic Boon x64gold]
-[Costs sustainable. Confirm Purchase]
"Yes. It worked". I whooped and hollered waving my arms victoriously in the air.
'Okay. Alright. Breathe' I paused. 'Well, I can't breathe'. I chuckled.
"Purchase". the words vanished and then I watched my body slide into view on the system screen.
[Body graftimg and reconstitution under way. Hold for 10 mins]
I looked my body over in the system box. It seemed perfect enough. Exhaling I looked up once more and balked in shock. The subway was now covered in weeds and grasses. Nature doing what it did best. Reclamation.
I sighed them looked up to the roof of the subway.
"Wonder what the stars and sky will be like". murmuring I looked back to my system and noticed a blue icon flashing to the side.
"Hmmh. Something I missed".
Tapping it I watched a box open and read the notification.
[Congratulations as the last Remaker to complete the remaking process you've earned a care package]
"The...the...the last?!!". I almost coughed in shock but I couldn't do that so I just stared in astonishment. How long did I take? Was all the delay worth it now? What if I died after resurfacing cause I had delayed for so long and now everyone else is so powerful I'm an ant?
Thoughts filled my head. Thoughts I had to push aside. It was harder to do but I had to focus. If I was already late then I had to finish whatever was left faster and try to catch up with the rest of humanity.
'Fortunately, I look human enough'. I eyed my body.
Tapping on the package it burst open and a notification appeared.
[Care package transferred to Personal inventory ]
Sitting back I began to think again. First, it seemed to me that the remakers had ungodly advantages. At least that was how it seemed at first. but remembering the systems quote about fairness didn't it mean the humans would have ways to grow faster? Was this a way to even the playing field?
Or worse. What if there was nothing fair and some idiot Remaker used his or her hax abilities to catch attention leading to some wild hunt or knowledge outing of the Remakers? I shook my head.
"System is there any way to know if an individual is a Remaker or not".
[The identity skill is capable of showing basic information about an individual at lower levels. With a lack of a suitable obfuscation item, this is more plausible]
"In other words find something like the big word you just used. Noted".Hopefully, it was something that could be gotten from the shops.
Shaking my head I looked to my timer and saw it at 3 minutes. A sense of antsiness filled my veins as I willed the dot to go faster. Heavens knew I had tried my best. Holding out for weeks while fabricating my body. Patience wasn't a virtue all people had.
Fortunately, the timer finally ended and the system sent words again.
[Body Grafting and reconstituting complete ]
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
[Please brace for soul transfer]
I barely managed to react to the fact that I was indeed a soul when my vision blurred. Funnily the system's words went with me even in the darkness I entered.

It was the last line I saw before the darkness slowly gave way to dim lighting as my eyes opened slowly. My head turned to the left first and then to the right. I forced my arm and then wiggled my body.
'I'm in something like water but thicker'. I thought. I realized I had nothing helping me breathe and I was slowly lacking oxygen. Before I could panic at the thought of dying right when I just woke a green light flashed next to my eyes and then there was a click. I listened as the liquid drained and I sank or more like just got lowered till I felt my feet touch the ground.
Weeks without having a solid body to call my own came into effect as I fell forward, my hands attempting to catch me. The doors hissed open simultaneously releasing steam and I fell through face-first.
[Welcome to Moon Base - Designation - Aw182948- Alpha]
"What. Who's that?" I groaned and rolled to my back ready for an altercation.
[I am Tier 6 Artificial Autonomous Intelligence Unit - Null]
"Okay. Who the f**k named you, Null!".
[There was no sexual intercourse in the making of this Unit as there is no name. The designation Null implied nameless]
"Oh. Your creators couldn't even name you" I was already picking myself up while wonderous at the liquid I was submerged in having already dried off.
[My creator did not]
"That was not nice". I murmured shocked at the idea one had made such a unit without offering it even the basest of names. I pushed myself to my feet feeling some strength enter my limbs.
[Indeed you are not nice]
I blinked.
"Wait. I am ...your... creator?"
[Affirmative].
"Really?".
[This Unit was made on September 19th, Earth date. 4:00 pm, Earth Time by the Individual - Designation - unknown. Race - Erizian]
I frowned. I was the only Erizian unless someone already got their hands on my schematics.
"I apologize Unit. I was not aware you were already functional. If possible may I name you now".
Yes, I was treating it like a living being. Yes, I was starved for company. Yeah, I didn't care.
[This Unit listens to all Directives as made of the Creator - Designation...]
"Alright. First, scrap that long name-calling talk. My name is..." I paused as I realized it had listed me as unknown because I had no name. The system really must have wanted us to have the chance to start afresh.
I stayed silent for a long moment before I decided. I wasn't human anymore, I wasn't on Earth. Even worse I was sure I now had abilities that made me different and more special. I had used my boons and brains to come out well off. I had to figure this all out well.
While humanity was down there fighting I would be up here safe and training myself. To become strong enough that no one would control my fate anymore.
"That none will end me with a mere push".
[Is that the Creator's Designation]
"No" I smiled. "Call me Medes. Medes Luminare". I made a slight nod of my head. "And you Unit, your designation is Adam. After all you are the first of your kind I know of on earth".
[This Unit appreciates. Designation updated to Adam]
[Hidden Quest]
[Name the A.I achieved]
[+ 10 Exp gained ]
I smirked at this.
"Adam. How much do you know??".
[The System brought me up to date with the ongoing. This Planet - Designation - Earth has begun what their inhabitants term the apocalypse or the System's Descent roughly 65 days prior ]
"Sixty-five!". That was over a month.
[Affirmative Medes. You completed your remaking in said Interval. This Unit applauds your choices too]
I smiled a bit and waited as Adam continued.
[While your priorities might not align with my calculated designs. This Unit suggests you begin consolidation of this base. Expansion when necessary and obtaining necessary materials for increasing our objectives]
"And what are our objectives?"
[From requests made of the system this unit calculates the Creator to have planned and sought long-term survival and growth. This unit applauds your forethought once more. This Unit suggests exploration and mapping of the moon in complete effect. This is to ascertain the number of useful materials and resources that can be acquired for refinement and production of necessities]
"What are these necessities?".
[The Creator managed to obtain the following when bargaining for the Moonbase]
[Nano processors]
[Tf Light refiners]
[Greater Mechanics Access ports]
[Greater Tier 6 A.I module]
[Tier 7 constructor Pad]
[For one lacking in the knowledge of the Greater Multiverse your hindsight in gaining enough benefits was truly magnificent]
[Nano processors and a Tier 7 constructor Pad work together in building desired tools and or machines]
[Tf Light refiners are useful for the refining of raw materials into the Nano goop and Tech that the previously stated machines use for their work]
[Greater Mechanics Access ports is truly the greatest catch as this gives you access to the schematics and designs of the Wider Multiverse. Yes Medes, you can gain knowledge of machines and future tech from this port and rebuild. Of course, a patent applies, and even then creating more than a set number is a no-no. Simply to stop outside parties from benefitting from the sale of company products]
"But if I can figure and reduce the parts not patented then..."
[Creator can be rightful owner]
"This ...access Ports."
[GMAPs]
"That. Any catch for the ports. With how important it seems I feel like gaining it was too easy now".
[To gain any schematics you need to unlock it with EPs - Elzohic Points]
"Is this the part where I finally ask about the too-similar names. Elz, Elzohic, Elzharan, Elzhorn".
[This Unit is too low leveled to answer this query and even if this unit was of a high level Creator Medes is too low Tier to receive answers]
"Meh. Would have been too easy anyway. So. What is the first thing you advise to do?"
[This Unit notes that Creator Medes is yet to get acquainted with himself]
[Compulsory Quest]
[Learning]
[Get to know about the facet of your body, your limits, capabilities, and abilities.]
[Rewards - +50 Exp]
[Compulsory Quest]
[Learning II]
[Observe and patrol your Moonbase. Know what is what. Find what ticks and what doesn't. Learn from your A.I -Adam.]
I rolled my eyes but decided to do as said. After all, thinking about it, I didn't even know what I looked like yet. Adam had taken my complete attention.
