Chapter018

- Now we wait for your avatar's synchronization with the new environment, meanwhile we can finally do a q&a session.

- After three days... Just like that... Breathe in, breathe out... ...

- Well normally new matrix's avatars would have to listen to the lore introduction and should consult each obelisk for instruction. But I believe we exceeded normal parameters by far, so now you can simply ask.

- I'm starting to have a migraine, is this even possible with this body? Anyway how much time I have for asking questions?

- I think your headache is only psychological originated, you shouldn't have physical feedback until the end of the synchronization sequence. And you can ask for all the time you want.

- Care to explain this "feedback" thing?

- When, a few more minutes actually, the sequence will end, you will have again the full control and feedback of your avatar. Obviously complete of the upgrade you obtained until now.

- Obviously... Just so I can understand better, what will change from before, and I mean from my original body, from the time in the room and now?

- Your original body's stat and skill are unknown to me the system came in contact with your matrix only after you separated from it, I could only glimpse at the last instant of your original life but not enough data to extrapolate significant results.

- Wait a minute! You said I was going to get cremated... did you lie to me?

- From the relative time between the end of you original body, the system's search and the memories of your last will, I estimated the moment your original body would be  cremated.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

- Estimated, estimated... How sure you're of your calculation?

- From the data I have a 2.3 second of error.

- Sigh... I have no way to check in any way, so lest's say I believe you, what are the difference I should expect from the white room and now?

- I think that thanks to your intuition you will be able to pick the change immediately, but to answer your question in the testing room you were on a slight compulsion to "do something", your avatar grow-rate was doubled and no other basic biological function were activated.

- Such as?

- Hunger and thirst are the more prominent, the full list I'm not authorized to disclose. And I believe it would be fairly boring.

- Yeah, because you worry about my entertainment right?... Will I be free of compulsion now?

- Yes, like I said before, no external interference is permitted on the matrix after it pass the test...

While it was talking, I was assaulted by a feeling comparable to plunging, my whole body, in ice water after a day under the scorching sun. My skin felt first hot and than cold, no wonder I started shivering like a new-born lamb.

- The synchronization seems complete, I think in a few hour you will start to feel all the others change. What you feel now is the feedback from the avatar's settings to the new atmosphere, gravity ecc.
