014 - Making ready

John thought for a while before asking VAS, “VAS, can you perform a simulation? Commanding the body without setting that one a primary, and another simulation where I made it a primary unit?”

VAS was silent, but John detected a humming-like vibration near him, like a quiet machine working. Not long after, VAS replied, “If I have to place it in words, in the simulation with the primary unit, the body would at most be sluggish and easier to control. While without it, we would have to experiment on how to adequately manipulate this body, wasting time and energy in the process.”

“Have the SCENB, short for Soul's Core Essence Nanobot, set as the primary unit, and employ it to handle the body.” John spoke as he started writing on his personal screen.

VAS confirmed that right after, the SCENB, which was moving along the other nanobots, started to be centered among the other nanobots. While being centered, it moved to a central point of the body, ready to receive commands.

“Do you wish to give orders or control the body manually or via orders?” VAS asked after everything was in order. This surprised John, who inquired, “Like those VR games? When do you mention manual control?”

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

“Yes, just like that, since it has become easier to manipulate the body now.” VAS confirmed. John subconsciously thought about a virtual reality controller and headset. As if responding to his thought, a pair of controllers appeared in his hands and a headset on his head.

With this, John was first surprised, then excited, but as if something came to mind, he became alert. “VAS, how much energy does it require again?”

“None. After turning the SCENB into a primary, we gain access to control it without cost, and because we block mana from leaving the body, no mana or energy would leave the body and only circulate in the body, but the girl's body can still die from hunger and thirst, so the faster we find a power source, the better.” VAS informed John.

John nodded, and after writing on his screen a bit more, he showed VAS what he was writing.

1. Add a visual camera in the right eye for normal sight.

2. Add a sensory camera in the left eye for visual mana sensing.

3. Use nanobots in the wounded areas to salvage what they can from dead nanobots that came into contact with the wounds.

4. Either find a new power source or try to convert current mana into fuel for the body's thirst and hunger needs.
