“The fuck? If you had a body, I would have punched you in the face just about now.” Roy was totally serious. He would have done it.
*Well technically speaking, I am you now. So you could punch me by punching yourself.* It seemed that Mike was enjoying himself.
“You know what, fuck you. How are you even speaking to me?” Roy decided to put this matter behind him and focus on the current matter.
*I am directly broadcasting to your auditory nerve. If you want to have a silent conversation with me, just speak without opening your mouth. I will hear it.* Now this was something. If people saw him talking to himself, they would label him as mentally ill.
*This feels weird.* Roy tried to talking as Mike instructed. It was not very hard to do. It was like thinking, except he was consciously doing it.
*You will get used to it, eventually. I have found several problems with your body.*
*Problems as in?* Mike’s words worried Roy greatly.
*Your spine alignment is wrong. Looks like a slip disc. It is also in bad shape. Your hamstrings are weak. Actually, every muscle in your body is weak. You have several benign tumors in several places in your body. You have an old injury on your left shoulder. You are missing three teeth and rest are in poor shape. Your gastric system is messed up. Your lungs are damaged. Seriously, how do you even manage your daily life with this much problem?* Roy was amazed. Mike listed off problems in his body like he was reading off ingredients from a shopping list.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
*Well nothing you described really hampered my daily life. I am just one of those millions of people who just go to office in the morning, and come back late. Boring office work. Sit in a chair all day and look at a monitor. I am actually surprised that my eyes are still fine, even after spending all these years looking at a monitor.* Roy shrugged. He was actually one of the healthier ones in his group.
*Your eyes are fine. I have to correct your spine, and destroy the tumors. After merging, the enhanced self-repair mechanism will take care of the shoulder injury, teeth problems and gastric system. Regarding your weak muscles, I will leave them to your discretion.* Some specific words in Mike’s rant drew Roy’s attention.
*Enhanced self-repair mechanism? You mean like healing factor? Like the wolverine from the comics?*
*Enhanced self-repair mechanism means you heal from injury at a very high rate. But please don't mix comics with real life. Like I said before, you can't create something out of nothing. The mechanism will draw energy from the fat reserve in your body. If you run out of fat, it will stop working.*
*Great. Never thought me being a bit fat will be a boon in disguise. Say, How strong my psychic abilities will be?* Roy was secretly happy. Now he had an excuse for eating more.
*They could be quite strong if you wish for it. But I will advise against having too strong psychic ability right off the bat. I can give you the ability, but I can't give you the control over it. On the matter of how to control them, I can help you with some. For the rest, you yourself have to learn to control them.*
*I am gonna call in sick for two week. Give me just enough ability just to test things out. We will increase the power output according to how I adjust. What ability can you give me?* Fuck office. Psychic abilities was the more important one.
*Lots. Telekinesis, telepathy, teleportation, clairvoyance, precognition, psychometry, prophecy, and many more. However, I would advise you to go for Telekinesis, inception, and precognition for now. They should provide all the edge you require on earth.*
“All right, let’s do it.”
