Chapter 47 - Modes

"Your time as an overseer did have its effects didn't it?" Shawn asked him.

"Yes!" Blan replied.

"Alright then, you can go" Shawn waved the wolf away.

Blan nodded before a bright light dawned upon him and took him away.

"I still have to complete a whole bunch of tasks," Shawn said while looking at the amount of tasks he had to complete. "Over ten more." He groaned.

[Ding! Maximum energy taken]

[Reassigning sleeping state]

[Logging creator out of world]

Shawn's eyebrows arched as he shouted at the system.

"What are you doing?, Am I not supposed to finish to spend six hours resting?"

[3…2…1]

Everywhere became blank and Shawn's vision dimmed.

He didn't know how long it was till he opened his eyes and stared at the timer on the wooden stand close to his bed.

"5:00 on the dot?"

"Strange enough that I woke up on time and feel less stressed." He told himself before touching his forehead.

"What is happening?, what other secrets is the system not letting me know?" He thought.

He got himself up only to feel a slight pain at his back. "I feel sore all over" he complained.

"Well, I'll just have to manage for today" he proceeded to raise himself from his bed and walked to his bathroom.

"Good morning bro" Lucas appeared from outside his room.

"What are you doing up here?" He questioned.

"Ohh nothing much, I just wanted to ask if you could borrow me your laptop when we return home today" Lucas replied.

"Huhn, why should I?" Shanw said while rubbing his eyes.

"Its a project, I need to design something to print out and submit"

"And what is that?" Shawn was not ready to yield.

"An assignment by my teacher?" Lucas responded with a smile.

"Its a desktop game isn't it?" Shawn revealed.

Lucas but his lips, embarrassed that he had been caught. "Yes!" He cried.

"Sighh…" Shawn rubbed his forehead before saying.

"You'll pay for the data that you're gonna use"

"Big bro" Lucas looked at him with teary eyes.

Shawn grinned before he opened his mouth releasing a yawn and a fresh dose of morning breath that entered Lucas's nose.

"You're hateful!" Lucas immediately covered his nose and left.

"Alright you've suffered enough. I'll give you" he shouted.

"I'm evil" he told himself while laughing before entering his bathroom to brush.

Soon he was in the car properly dressed and watching his baby sister sitting at the back.

"Time to get going" Nick yelled before hitting the brakes.

The car zoomed off from the house to reach the school.

Shawn entered the class, dropped his bag and laid his back right at his chair, watching the interactive board in front before the sound of an alarm ringed in his ears.

"Time for hall meetings" He thought as he took his book and left the classroom.

He could still feel the sore pain at his back, but it was manageable unlike yesterday where he could hardly focus on anything.

"I can't wait for Friday" He yawned again.

Hall meeting involving all students finished and they all went back to their classrooms.

"Coding Class" Shawn said before taking his bag with him out of the classroom.

"Good morning" Harry greeted.

"Morning" Shawn replied as he rubbed his back while holding his bag with one arm.

"So how are you feeling today?, Did you finish all your assignments?" Harry asked.

"Yeah, I did" Shawn replied.

"Impressive!" Charles praised as he walked towards the two with a grey bag at his arm.

"Let's go, we have a coding class" He said as the trio began walking out of the corridor to the building not far.

The door was opened with a label at the top saying "Digital Lab"

Upon entering, their eyes were welcomed with many students sitting at the chairs staring at the desktops on the table.

Some like Shawn and Charles, brought their laptops out and placed it at the space the desktops left on the table.

"Psst!" A familiar voice called.

The trio turned their heads to see a blonde haired female with three seats around her gesturing towards them to come.

"Ahh, Stephanie kept seats as usual" Charles said with a smile as they walked to the seats and dropped their bags.

Shawn unzipped his bag and revealed an Hp laptop.

"You and your 10" Charles teased.

"Well, I can say the same for your 11" Shawn replied.

It wasn't long before a teacher's voice interrupted them.

"Alright class, launch the desktops, open your laptops. Today, we will be learning a bit of python" said the Teacher; Mr Johnson.

Shawn immediately opened his Spyder app and touched his head.

"Incoming headache" He told himself before the class started.

When the bell rang again, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"I'm pretty sure that I'm not back to optimum shape" he said to himself.

"And as for your assignment…"

"…"

Shawn just wanted to close his ears.

And so, classes continued till it was time for them to be over for the day.

"So what are we cooking today?" Lucas asked his brother as soon as they got of the cab.

Shawn was feeling tired and more exhausted said. "Any thing that can give me a bit of the energy I've drained today"

"Hmm, during these times its soup that you need to feel relax" Lucas diagnosed.

He continued "Since we have some vegetables, carrots and..."

"Carrot Soup!" Stacy who was being held by him finished his words.

"That's nice, just ensure that your brother doesn't drop before he touches it" Stephanie said before winking.

Shawn who overheard her rolled his eyes before bading her good night.

The three siblings soon reached their house and Shawn who had the keys in his bag unlocked it for the them to enter.

It wasn't long before they settled in and decided to sit at the side.

"Its still the afternoon, we'll cook in the evening. I'm going to get some sleep" Shawn said before heading upstairs.

"Don't you usually do your assignments before anything else?"

"Only two of them and I can always schedule the weekend for that" I said before I continued to walk till the top.

"Ohh and if there are potatoes, we're mashing them" I added before closing my room door.

"Was a bit better in the morning, now school just drained me dry" I grumbled before removing my shoe and jumping on my bed.

"The system better not send me to the game" he said as sleep immediately took over him.

But in life, not everything goes thr way you want it.

[Logging creator into the world]

[1]

The usual dark vision quickly changed into a tab with info.

"Of all the good times or the good things to do, why are you summoning me when I'm weak? Huhn?"

[Creator failed timer schedule]

"Well, couldn't you move it over to the weekend?"

["..."]

Shawn felt like bursting into tears.

"This is becoming an addition. I really need to sleep" he complained.

[Initiating on power saving mode]

"Is this what you did the last time?"

Shawn asked as the lighting to the room dimmed.

[No, that was range mode]

"Explain these two?" Shawn said while rubbing his forehead.

[Power saving mode involves reducing the energy sapped from Creator to an almost negligible state and range mode is for booting creator out when further energy taken could lead to stress]

"So, you sapped the energy I had gathered before logging me in and then booting me out?. And now, you've reduced the power you're draining from me?" Shawn instantly slapped his forehead.

"Anyways, I'm only going to do one task here and log me out when I'm done?"

He continued "So what can I do and what can I not do in power saving mode?"

[All intensive powers involving creation, summoning and projecting are unusable, real view mode of worlds unavailable only map]

"..."

Shanw just sighed and looked at the tasks that he still had to finish.

1 Earn at least 60,000 CP - 39,000/60,000.

"Let's pick the eighth quest" he said.

"Show me the map of the boundary between Ornio and Yorn"

The tab in front of him changed to show the north eastern continent with a very hot climate and the western horizontal arm of Yorn's cross world that had a few Islands.

"Okay, I will be making six laws concerning the boundary"

"First law will be the energy mixing law - Energies of both realms can intermix in a way that affects the individuals an inhabitants of those in the boundary.

Second law will be the energy conservation law...
