Emir smiled at the offer, flattered.
"Thanks, Kiera, but I prefer to work alone. Plus, I have my own agenda to pursue."
Kiera flinched but nodded in understanding. "Well, the offer stands if you ever change your mind, and if you ever need our help, just let us know."
"Sure thing, you can always count on me for some extra firepower. And who knows, we could even have a non-work-related date sometime in the future."
Kiera chuckled, "Maybe."
"But never forget, I'm a hunter that danger tends to follow, so watch out for the crossfire." He warned her.
"I'll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks again for your help today, Emir. It was great working with you."
"Likewise, Kiera. Take care and stay safe out there."
As Emir walked away, he couldn't help but feel a pang of loneliness.
This wasn't the first time that someone had extended an invitation to join their gang or team, only for him to refuse.
Going solo afforded him the freedom to chase his objectives without any hindrance or concessions, especially since his future mission demanded that he works alone.
But it also meant that he had no one to rely on, no one on the field that could watch his back.
It is a dangerous world out there, and sometimes it felt like all the odds were stacked against him.
...
Emir soon arrived at an inn and walked up to the front desk.
The innkeeper greeted him with a friendly smile.
"Hello, how can I help you?" He asked.
"I need a room for the night."
"Sure thing." He pulled out a key.
"We have a few options available. Do you have any preferences?"
"Just a quiet room," Emir said as he handed over his ID.
He quickly processed the payment and handed Emir the key.
"Your room is on the second floor, room 207. Enjoy your stay!"
He made his way up to the room and unlocked the door.
It was a simple but comfortable space with a bed, a small desk, and a window overlooking the street below.
He dropped his bag on the bed and sat down, taking a deep breath.
Emir reached into his bag and pulled out the case. He opened it, talking out the capsule.
[Lyra, can you scan it now?]
[Already started.]
Minutes went by, and she finally replied.
[Apparently, it contains old-world nanobots that could be commanded using your own neural network, you would just have to swallow that capsule, also, it's only usable for people who have done the mutation unlock.]
[It is capable of destroying and healing the interior of your body, slowly compressing your blood cells, tissues, and entire muscles to make you stronger each time you repeat the process.]
The neural network, which is composed of the electrical and chemical signals in the brain, has the ability to communicate with the nanobots within an individual's body.
However, the extent to which this communication can occur is limited and can be enhanced through the process of mutation unlocking.
So after Emir went through the mutation unlock, his neural network gained new capabilities, making it so that he can control the nanobots in his body with even more precision.
There are many functions that nanobots, in conjunction with the neural network, serve in this world, for example, people can purchase nanobot injections that allow them to gain new skills.
These skills range from combat skills like archery to more artistic skills like singing or playing a musical instrument.
The skill injection would allow them to understand and unlock the skill to a basic degree, meaning that they would automatically become a novice in that particular skill.
Emir quickly refocused and swallowed the capsule with no hesitation, with the thought of it being 16:07
detrimental to him never crossing his mind.
The reason why this is possible is due to the nanobots in the individual's body connecting with their neural network. The individual would understand the skill, and his body would slightly adapt to its use.
Due to the sheer amount of information needed to master a skill, those who are in the process of acquiring a new skill would only be able to learn the most fundamental aspects of it, in other words, they would automatically become a novice of that skill.
This is because both the brain and body are unable to handle the overwhelming surge of changes that come with acquiring a new skill.
Therefore, individuals with higher stats will have an easier time and be more efficient at learning and acquiring higher-ranked skills at a better skill level.
The incredibly high price isn't the only reason why skills aren't commonly used, the main reason is that the technology is monopolized by the UEF, so no matter how much money you may have, if you aren't deeply affiliated with the government, you would have no access to those skills.
It is feasible for someone with a skill to duplicate and sell it, but it must be done discreetly to avoid being caught by the UEF, as the punishment would be a fate worse than death.
However, there is another deterrent to this practice, which is the fact that when an individual's neural network transmits data from their nanobots to someone else, the quality of the transmitted information degrades significantly as it is not the primary source.
This is how the massive border between the elite and the rest remained till this day and will remain so in the future, it's also the reason why everyone dreams of attending the academy, as this is the only place someone could potentially buy them with no strings attached.
It sounded like something straight out of a fantasy novel, but It made sense.
'Anyways, is this how that man got so strong? This capsule certainly is incredible, I could get physically stronger without needing to enhance myself with cybernetics or even become a cyborg myself.'
'I won't even need to use a mech in the future, I could go against the strongest of opponents just with my body.' He added, smiling at that thought.
Emir quickly refocused and swallowed the capsule with no hesitation, with the thought of it being detrimental to him never crossing his mind.
He could feel a cold, metallic taste in his mouth as the capsule seemed to dissolve instantly, so he braced himself, waiting for the effects to kick in.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but then he started to feel a strange sensation in his chest.
It was like a tingling, pulsing feeling that spread throughout the entirety of his body.
Emir closed his eyes and focused on the sensation. He then instinctively tried to command the nanobots to start the process.
