“This is?”
Francis’s eyes widened when he heard the mechanical voice in his brain.
“Moomoo is that you?! Where the hell were you all these years?!”
[Abnormal and drastic changes were detected to the host body, thus AllRounderAssistantAICalculator pro++ codename “Moomoo” Was under recalibration and maintenance]
Francis found it hard to believe. He said in his brain, “Scan my mind and search for any supplementary systems please Moomoo”
[scanning]
[scanning]
[scanning]
[scanning]
After a few seconds, Moomoo’s lovable mechanical voice replied back,
[No supplementary systems found]
Aww man, I guess hoping for all those bootleg enhancements I made to be present was too much; high speed memory connection would be bangin tho-maps here are so fuckin bad
“Now scan my entire body, display any abnormalities and detectable underlying conditions”
Another mechanical sound.
[scan in progress] [
…
…
…
[two major abnormalities found:
head wound(hole) and heightened lust(HORNIJAIL4U)]
[underlying conditions:
Low blood pressure
bleeding
Diarrhea variant(inactive?)
hunger]
wait that’s it? Wheres the chip?
“moomoo, run hardware check on your housing and display its location?”
[error; housing not found]
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
“repeat last query; apply superuser credentials *twotimestwiceStan*”
[processing]
[Blue screen of Death]
[would you like to display general body diagnosis after scanning?]
ah? What? Sure?
Strength: below average
Agility: average
Vitality: below average
Status: Bleeding from back of the head, many injuries to the soft tissues]
A 3D hologram appeared before Francis’s eyes. It displayed Francis’s own body and showed its details.
Francis thought to himself,
where’s the hell is the housing? I know the Chip is a hunk of electronics. How did it suddenly just manifest out of nowhere?
Its fused to my soul innit? Fuckin hell; hope its not some leech that’ll eat my soul or something atleast
*indistinct snickering in the distance*
The AllRounderAssistantAICalculator pro++ was a state of the art micro computer that would fit into the users brain to continuously connect them to the wider network the world used without actually needing a computer………well at least the official version that was restricted to military and had yet to go through wider redundancy tests to determine lethality befor releasing to the populace, because, well;
chip in brainàchip does computationsàchip generates heatàchip roasts brain
see what I mean?
Also after the android uprising all virtual assistance was strictly barebones without self improving(evolving) code and maximizing raw computational power.
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
Its analyzing ability could only be used by following the Host’s commands. It gathered data samples and reached a deduction based on simulations.
Basically spreadsheets on steroids high on cocaine after doing spice and eating mushrooms grown in supercomputer coolant.
But, what do bootlegers love more than to give their customers full technical support eh?
Meanwhile, francis’s AllRounderAssistantAICalculator pro++ aka “Moomoo” came with all the bells and whistles,
Passive data recording from all of the five senses,
Smart data analysis, with predictive enhancements to notice and analyze behavioral patterns more efficiently with the cold heartless logic of the computer and without any bias which is always present in human analysis.
Basically, back home, frankie boy would be in the gulag for a few centuries atleast for partaking in the purchase of restricted hardware, but that don’t matter right now does it?
The corners of Francis’s mouth suddenly lifted to form a brilliant smile. He knew that in this Middle Ages period, having a crystallization of future technology would definitely make his future path extraordinary!
But… The status displayed used a normal human adult’s physiology as a standard. Theoretically, the average adult’s displayed stats would all be around 1. Although this Francis was only 13-14 years old, his stats were still too low.
“Hm? That’s not right. It’s possible that the bodies of the people in this world are generally weaker! Moomoo, scan the bodies of the people around me and display their stats!”
[Task established]
[compiling data]
[Name: Unknown. Gender: Male. Strength: 0.9, Agility: 1.1, Vitality: 0.8] [Name: Unknown. Gender: Male. Strength: 1.2 Agility: 0.8, Vitality: 1.0] [Name: Unknown. Gender: Female. Strength: 0.8, Agility: 1.2, Vitality: 0.7] **note: all data is collected through users senses thus not very accurate at all
[data compiled; result U R WIEK!! NEED PROTIIN!! EAT MIET!]
Sigh…”moomoo, please remove snark program 2.5.1 from directory”
[removing……]
[removing……]
[removing……]
[unable to remove; would you like suggestions on how to proceed?]
‘yes please’
[YE WANNA REMV ME EH YA SHIT HOW BOUT YE SUK THIS MASSIVE DIGITAL DONG EH THEN MAYBE ILL SKULLFUCK YA NEXT EH?!EH?!EH?!]
Francis scanned his surroundings. The people were all youths around his age. There was a seemingly very delicate and frail girl whose SUPPOSED stats were tons better than Francis’s, causing him to feel utter despair.
A red warning continued to flash in francis’s peripheral vision. When he finally addressed it he could do nothing but whistle in shock
“Average stats of 3.0!” Francis scanned the information several times to double check that Moomoo hadn’t made a mistake(spoiler; it hadnt)
[Name: Unknown, Gender: Male, Strength: 3.3, Agility: 2.5, Vitality: 3.2.
Excessively dangerous. Recommendation: stay the fuck away or yer fucked]
Francis understood well that a stat of 3.2(of the average human) meant the person’s fighting capabilities, viral resistance, and body recovery speed was all far greater than a normal person’s!
The various stats displayed being threefold greater than a typical person’s wasn’t as simple as just adding numbers together. What kind of concept was this?
A person with these kinds of stats could only be created by genetically modifying their biochemistry in a lab. This world is indeed not a simple backward one!
Francis thought to himself as he looked at the person possessing these terrifying stats once again.
It was a black-clothed person responsible for handing out food. He looked like he was middle-aged, and he had a scar on his face that stretched from his forehead to his lip. It pretty much split his entire face in half, and looked extremely fierce.
The freckled boy from before was completely frightened by this person.
“This is the academy’s servant responsible for receiving us. It’s said that he’s not a magus, yet he’s already so frightening. What would a real magus be like then?”
Francis discovered that a strong interest and curiosity about the profession of a magus had arisen inside him. He was itching to go to the academy now and investigate everything.
The line was really short, and it was soon Francis’s turn. After the black-clothed, scarred man gave Francis a piece of white bread and some juice, he wordlessly waved Francis away with an impatient expression on his face.
The black-clothed man remained expressionless as he watched Francis turn to leave.
“Ai! I didn’t think that Francis would really seem like a noble after bowing!” The two youths behind Francis couldn’t help but secretly whisper to each other.
“Hurry up and move forwards!” The scarred man shouted, suddenly blasting the two’s eardrums.
Francis ignored the discussion behind him as he surveyed the area, He then bitterly smiled, “Great! I’m really an unwelcome person!”
When he looked at George, George also hurriedly turned his head away. His hands made a secret gesture behind his back.
“Since you gave me the medicine, I won’t expose you!” Francis whispered and sighed, then found a relatively remote place. Without caring whether or not the ground was carpeted, he sat down and began to eat heartily.
The white bread was very bland but this was already considered a food that one can only get during celebrations! the production capabilities he was exposed to in this world until now were quite low. The white bread was an aristocrat’s food. Normal, minor nobles could only enjoy it during celebrations of major holidays.
To typical peasants, who only had hard, nutritionless black bread to eat, this was a supreme delicacy.
Francis thought as he ate.
When he thought of the black bread as hard as rocks from his memories, Francis sighed and ravenously wolfed down the bread and downed the juice in one gulp as well. Francis then wiped his mouth in satisfaction and returned to the carriage.
Based on the experience in his memory, noble youths would set up tents in camp and rest for the entire night before moving again. However, it was clear that nobody would invite Francis to join them. He didn’t have a tent himself, so he could only sleep on the cold and hard carriage!
there were 50 some apprentices, 25 beige robes, and 3 of the leaders in green robes.
When he thought of when he had tried to scan a green robe by getting near them, goosebumps rose allover his body.
Added on to that, Moomoo’s warnings of
[Discovered an unknown radiation source
unidentifiable disturbance from unknown force field, unable to scan!]
Francis’s eyes seemed to light up in flames. Why? Who knows.
“It’s best if I sleep earlier! I still need to hurry on with the journey tomorrow!”
Francis took off his jacket and laid it on the ground to make his sleeping more comfortable.
Since the journey was started, it had already been over 3 months. The main reason it was taking so much time was that they were stopping at evry population centre to look for kids with magical aptitude and finally after passing through a few dozen kingdoms, they were picking up speed as the population became sparser and sparser.
He closed his eyes and fell asleep. Dreaming of all the wonderful and exotic meals he would get to sample in the future.
