Chapter 4: Your Personal Assistant, Analysia

As I try to quickly open the box to get the effect of the grace period so I can't get killed, I can't shake the feeling that something will go wrong.

Opening it, at that moment, I really wished that I got another gadget that is less dangerous than this.

"W-What is this? My eyes!"

I shouted to the reaction of the pure white light coming from inside the box with an intense and powerful aura that even makes my head feel immense pain that feels like something is squishing and stretching out my brain, causing me to remember everything that happens to me in the past from I first breathe my first breath to now, with such vivid details.

While the box is floating and still opening the contents that's inside, I dropped down to the ground, with my right hand holding my head just because of the pain that I felt all over my brain. "C-Can this stop? ...I can't...hold it anymore!".

With that sentence uttered by me, the pain mysteriously stops and the box finally follows gravity and falls to the ground. "It...It...stops?"

I said with a little bit of an untrustful voice as I was still recovering from the headache, "I didn't even think that it would be over that fast."

I quickly rushed over to the spot where the box fell and checked what's inside.

"Nothing...talk about a sham."

I sighed in disappointment as I thought that with all the things that I went through, and all I got is just a mere show, at first I thought of that box as a red herring but it becomes clear that it is not.

"𝘔𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘹 𝘪𝘵𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘫𝘶𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘵?", Think my brain, trying to cope with what just happen and coming out with some question that's beyond nonsense.

"𝘐𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘵𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘳'𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘰𝘹𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘰𝘹𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵", and "𝘐𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘹 𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐'𝘮 𝘢 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘯𝘦...𝘐 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘢 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥", with the last one being a little bit narcissisitic.

"𝘖𝘩 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭, 𝘐 𝘨𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘐 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘣𝘰𝘹", with that, I finally got a little bit calmer, but still have a little element of discontent in my heart, still sticking, but suddenly.

"I would really love you to refer to that box as a red herring though, Master", said a young girly voice that comes out of nowhere but with it, the voice .

"𝘔-𝘔𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳!?", I hastily open my eyes and sit on my bed, checking the surroundings. "What's that even all about? Did I just hallucinate it or something?"

I started to question my sanity of the thing that I just heard.

"Master, It's kinda rude to think that I'm a part of your hallucinations right?", said the voice with an annoyed tone that sounds to me more like a threatening kind of tone than the former.

"W-Where are you?!", I asked the voice that was calling me master a couple of seconds ago.

"In your mind of course?", She answered with a sassy voice, "That's why your head was hurting when you saw the lights, that was because I'm in the process of entering your mind".

"𝘞-𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥, 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘶-", I said those words in fear before getting cut.

"May I presume that you're scared about what you just opened, master? , You know that I can read every single of your feelings from here right?".

At this point, I feel that my privacy is getting taken by this strange entity and lamenting my decision of opening that box.

"It's not that bad right? Don't forget that you're my master, master"

Said the voice trying to alleviate my still chaotic emotions in my heart.

"𝘈𝘭𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵...𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯, 𝘐𝘻𝘶, 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘨𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘵, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭 𝘩𝘦𝘳", as I slowly take my breath like a person in a meditation center would after a stress day.

"You've calmed down already master?", said the voice with a soothing voice.

"Yes, let me process things a little bit", I reply to the entity with a much more relaxed voice than before.

"So...let me summarize this, you're a gadget that lives inside my mind, that now oversees all the things that's happening in my body and my feelings as well. And now you're forever stuck there until I die, correct?"

I asked the entity with a monotonic voice, hoping in my heart that it wouldn't be the cas-.

"Yes".

Ehm...With the wind from the Air Conditioner keeps blowing, covering the entire room with a much needed fresh cool air, and the ticking clocks that's in the corner that indicates the time which is currently 11 PM.

I'm sitting here, on my bed, with an awkward silence just because of a single word which is the word 'Yes' from an entity that sounds like a girl that will live permanently inside my mind...What a mess.

"Are you seriou-".

"Yes", the entity cuts.

"Are you actual-".

"Yes, my master", the entity cuts again, this time with a more formal voice tone.

"Look, so when I die, then you will too?" I asked.

"Yes, my very beautiful and kind, master. Don't you just understand this point? This very clear and straight point?", this time praising with a now irritated attitude.

At that time, even though the entity itself already said it to me that it will be in my mind until I'm dead, which will be proof to be an advantage for me later on. But at that time, I refused to see the potential of this and kept questioning her.

"Can you...just killed yourself or somethin-".

"Can you just get my point?" Reply the entity to me.

"Sorry, my brain just can't handle the concept of an entity hiding in my mind!...So, what can you do? Oh yeah, can I refer to you as Analysia, because you analyze my brain"

I asked and also gave her a name just because I don't want to refer to her as you.

"What can I do?" She replied with a little bit energetic voice

'`You heard me right?", With me putting my lowest expectation on this entity called 'Analysia' on what it could, I'm ready to accept everything that it gives to me

"Glad you asked, master, I can give you everything that you ever want! You can request everything that you want to know from me, as I contain every world's knowledge you know?"

As she said with a little bit of a prideful voice.

"Everything that I want to know?", I asked again with a doubtful voice as I didn't believe that a mere 'gadget' which all I know is a dead weapon, can give me all the knowledge in the world.

"I think we can pass over everything that's provided by the internet just because everyone can access that from the tips of their fingertips" She stop with a sigh before continuing her explanation.

"So how about something more explicit, you want to see every dust particle in the air or ground right?"

She asked, in which I quickly nodded.

"Then your wish will be served in front of you master, just snap your hands and you'll see everything you need"

She said as I snapped my finger and was shocked by how my request came true, with my eyes seeing all the hundreds of thousands of dust particles scattered around me.

With this, I feel like that my eyes are gonna popped out of their sockets by the amount of information that I acquired.

"If you want to turn it off, you just need to snap your fingers one more time, master" said Analysia, after knowing that my eyes are aching in pain.

I promptly snap my finger, and my eyes finally can relax after it sees something that should be invisible to it. With both of my eyes checking

"Now, do you believe me now, master?", after she said that, I tested her again with the temperature and the moisture of the room, the substance that's in the air to the details which is percentage to the five digits behind the comma.

And before I knew it, it's already 11:30 PM, and I can finally ensure two things:

1.My safety is ensure, and Analysia can't betray me by giving my important information of myself to my potential enemies, and

2.Analysia can evaluate everything, from the air, water and also inside my body, so if there's something abnormal about my environment, she can alert and give me instructions on how to deal with it.

After I've done asking Analysia everything to make sure that she's sure about what she's promising to me, I tucked myself back to my bed and tried to sleep, this time, with an entity like gadget inside my mind.

But after a couple of minutes, a question, or more like a couple of questions chain into one starting to pop up, and just because curiosity got the best of me, I asked:

"Analysia, I have a couple of questions".

"What is it,Master?", Reply with her calm voice.

"First is, can you scan other people and know their gadgets?". In which she replied with very detailed explanation:

"Of course I can, but only to a gadget that has the lower rarity than me, something that has the same or higher rarity will have its own protection that keeps me from accessing it".

"Ahh...Another question, does every gadget have their own name or the user will name them for it?", I asked again to continue the first question.

"Yes, but generally the higher rarity a gadget got, like let's say Epic gadget, the poetic the name sounds is", she answered my question again, still keeping the energy from the first question.

"Alright, last question, what's your gadget name and rarity", I asked her once again to acquire the last badge of information from her.

Like the other ones, she answered this so casually that I didn't even bat an eye, until it reached her name and her rarity.

"My official name is The Great Archives, while my rarity is Legendary".

"Sorry? Can you repeat that again?"

At first, I thought that my both ears heard the wrong rarity and I'm still hallucinating from the earlier effects, but after I heard it again, my mind assured me that I have got a Legendary rarity gadget and passed out from excitement, with the last thing I heard was a whisper from Analysia, which is:

"Good night, Master, I promised that I will keep you safe from tomorrow onwards", and at that moment, my consciousness fell into the abyss and I fell into a deep sleep.

***

As I opened both of my eyes, and with my vision slowly coming back to me, the first thing I heard was a loud curdling cry from Analysia that startled me into the core and warning me that something bad is happening.

With my heart thumping and I hold my breath, I try to understand Analysia, in which she reply to me with a harrowing voice:

"Master! Don't Breathe the air! You can get both of us killed if you breathe it!".
