Creating the Bladecore Humanoid ch was far, far more difficult than Everlearn ever expected.
And as for the most difficult part:
Everlearn sat quietly at the white glass table, his eyes locked on the microscope’s objective lenses, where a tiny glass slide held an equally tiny chip on the stage.
In both hands, he held a really tiny stick-like iron fragnt, and with his neck hunched over, he continued quietly poking at the tech chip for more than 8 hours before,
FLICCCCKKKERR
A brilliant flicker of light shone out from the chip, and all of his movent froze.
He watched, his body still, as the light continued to shine from the chip before it dimd.
The second it balanced back, Everlearn picked it up with the tal forks, placing it higher up while turning the microscope.
In his eyes, he could see tiny circuitry blue spots over lines of gold.
He studied it quietly for a while before he brought it away from beneath the stage
"Hey, help!" he suddenly called out a mont later.
WHIIIIIR
The sound of whirring echoed out from behind him.
It was a robot, less than 20 centiters tall, shaped like an egg with two fork-like arms and tires for legs.
"Help here, ready to help!"
A chanical voice echoed out from the tiny robot.
"Grab a handkerchief..."
"Order received. According to Help’s database, handkerchiefs possess basic qualities that Host must indicate to get optimal success."
It said, and Everlearn raised an eyebrow.
"Do you wish to get a soft or a hard handkerchief?" Help asked.
"Get a soft one," Everlearn replied.
"Used or unused?" Everlearn’s brow wavered in irritation.
"An unused one. Right now... go get it already."
"What exact color do you want? According to my database..."
"Fuck your database! Get a fucking handkerchief, any color."
"Curse word recognized. The host seems to be in an annoyed state of health. Perhaps, you may need a soda?"
He clapped his forehead in exasperation.
"I don’t need a soda. Help. I need a handkerchief..."
"Okay. Help will now go get a handkerchief..."
It said, and like a tiny cat, it quietly zood forward, bouncing into the table where a couple of handkerchiefs lay.
Its hand elongated, and it yanked one off quickly, returning to Everlearn.
"Here, Host. Help has now helped! Hurray!" it said, and Everlearn’s eyes twitched unconsciously as he looked at the handkerchief laid in his hands.
"Just what did I drink the day I made you?" he mused to himself before shaking that off.
He placed the chip in the handkerchief, gently wiping off the liquid on the surface.
With the liquid wiped off, what lay in Everlearn’s hands was now a tiny blue chip.
This was the AI assistance he planned to rge with BladeCore Humanoid.
And speaking of his BladeCore Humanoid ch
In the next mont, Everlearn rose to his feet.
Reaching the center of the room, he tapped his leg on the floor, and light imdiately blood into a glassy circle around him.
"Hey, system?" he called out, and in the next mont, an object appeared right before Everlearn.
It was a humanoid-shaped ch, standing five ters tall, more than twice Everlearn’s height.
Compared to standard chs, it was exceptionally slim, with a narrow fra that emphasized speed rather than brute strength.
The body was made of crystal-clear blue nano-panels.
The arms were smooth and solid, without digits or circular appendages, thick and strong like broadswords.
The head was a smooth helt with precise curves, with glowing blue lines running along the sides where ears would be.
Those weren’t ornantal esigns.
When Everlearn designed this, he had nothing but aerodynamics and efficiency in his head.
He wanted a form that minimizes air resistance and maximizes mobility, and this was the result.
The Bladecore humanoid, an Ironic na as it did not hold a blade, and its hands had no fingers capable of gripping one.
It remained unmoving, but Everlearn moved.
Raising his hands, he tapped once on the ch’s chest, and its nanosurface rippled, revealing a deeper interior filled with glowing circuit lines.
There was no single wiring within the ch.
At the center of the chest, there was a small gap, one that fit almost perfectly with the chip Everlearn held in his hand, and he gently brought it to that space, using slight strength to push it in deeper.
The mont the blue chip made contact with the circuitry, the lines started glowing.
The space covered itself, and Everlearn unconsciously took a step back away from the ch.
WHIIIIIIR
Silent whirring echoed, and neon lights traced the ch’s smooth surface.
FLICCKKERRR
An even brighter flicker of light appeared as the helt-shaped face of the ch glowed, a triangular light on its face which demarcated its eyes.
It blinked twice, darkening and flickering, before it focused directly on Everlearn.
Silence descended.
A chilling sense, but through it,
BAAADUUUMP!
BAAADUUUMP!
BAADUUUUMP!
The sound of the heart pounding loudly echoed throughout the room, and it ca from none other than Everlearn.
The silence stretched for about ten seconds before words finally echoed out.
"Hello, Everlearn Snowfall."
It was a crystal-clear, gentle voice that seed to be carried directly to Everlearn’s ear, leaving him numbed.
The pounding of his heart crazily increased, but he reined down his excitent as he ordered:
"Introduce yourself."
"Yes, Everlearn. I am Ever..." As it said this, the smooth hands rose beneath its chest as it delivered a princely bow.
"The Ultimate AI ant to be implanted into the first-ever ch made by Everlearn Snowfall, the Everlight ch!"
’It even knows the implanted na within the chip center mory.’ Everlearn observed.
"My sole function is to let you, Everlearn Snowfall, pilot the Everlight ch at full capacity, instantly activating all systems on command and performing external reconnaissance, sending feedback on every module’s status to you!"
"I now await your next order."
It said, and Everlearn remained lost for words, remaining standing until the system panel flashed:
║Congratulations on Creating Your First True ch! ║
Everlearn’s leg lost its strength from that notification, and he collapsed onto both knees, head drooping low.
"It worked. It finally worked."
