Cosmic Editor

It would be impossible for her to manage the company effectively if she wasn't introduced to the A.I and he planned to do that today though as of how he would do so, he didn't know.

"We're going home?" Fadila asked confused,

"Yes"

"Why?... Hope you didn't buy any other thing that isn't necessary?" She asked skeptically, knowing David, he could and has done many impulsive things in this life and she hoped that this wasn't one of them

"No, what could I possibly be buying at this point?" David answered

"Okay, then what is it?"

"Don't worry, it's not something dangerous or anything; it's just something important you have to see before we actually start this company," David said

"Is it about the underground floors on the mountain, because I already know of those ones"

"No and I was never hiding them, but this is much more important than that" David replied as he continued driving

Hearing him, she became somewhat worried. She didn't know why but she was worried, David was impulsive, and that was a known fact. The mountain may be a good deal, but it was a testament to his impulsiveness.

"Don't worry, everything is alright," David said as he placed his hand in hers to assure her that all was well.

From her expression alone, he could tell that she was already thinking of the worst possible scenarios. He couldn't blame her since even he too would react in the same manner.

However, before she becomes CEO, it was necessary to introduce her to Nous and so far, he couldn't think of any way to do that without revealing everything.

Fadila was smart and not only that, she was knowledgeable. Naturally he couldn't say he knew exactly how much she knew but she knew enough to know that an A.I as advanced as Nous was impossible with the current technology.

That fact alone made it impossible for him to just make up some lie and expect her to believe it. Any lie he made up would need to be supplemented with even more lies since the person it was being told to, knew much about the subject.

Ensuring that she was now calmer, David focused on the road and soon they were back home. Without further hesitation, David led her to the elevator.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they entered a large space as the lights began to slowly turn on, automatically.

It was the laboratory or at least the makeshift laboratory, he had created. Looking around, she saw the various rooms which were filled with various equipment and items.

Some of them were familiar with and the others she wasn't too familiar with, most didn't even look like what she would expect in a laboratory.

"David, is that a Quantum computer?" Fadila asked pointing towards the center of the entire space

At the location she was pointing at, a chandelier-like device could be seen hanging from the ceiling. Golden wired ran all through the device in a complex manner.

It's complex wiring and design would made those who knew nothing about it call it a mere decoration while those in the know, would immediately recognize it as the most powerful computer in the world... As of now.

However, for some people, it would look a bit more like something drawn out of some sci-fi movie or something gotten from Area 51 and given to us by aliens.

"Yes, it is" David replied as he stood and watched as she walked round the computer in awe.

"Wait... where did you get the money to build one of these?" Fadila asked

She knew that David was now rich, but no matter how rich he had become, she knew he would never be able to afford to build one of these, especially one of this size.

"How and when did you even build something like this?" She continued without waiting for his reply.

"That's the thing, I didn't spend any more on it and I didn't build it alone, I had help."

"What do you mean... Oh my god, David, don't tell me you're a front for some mysterious company?"

"What?... No"

"Why would you even think that?" David asked

"Then what's going on?" She asked

"Before I explain everything well, I would like to introduce you to my partner, Nous."

As soon as his words fell, the familiar green particles appeared and began gathering on the table before them.

Turning to Fadila to see her reaction, he saw her simply standing there and watching. There were no significant changes to her reaction, she just stood and watched.

Within seconds, the green particles had gathered, and Nous's body was fully formed.

[Good day Ma'am, my name is Nous, artificial intelligence created by the Editor, David Nnaji] Nous said as it gave a slight bow towards her

"David, what is this?" freewebnoveℓ.com

"It's exactly what it says it is"

"Since when did you dabble in artificial intelligence?" She asked, still wth a confused look on her face

"For that part, we need to go to the beginning"

"I have time, go on"

"Okay, you see, I am what they call an Editor, I don't yet know what it entails but I am able to edit reality once a month. My first Edit was creating Nous" David said, trying to explain as much as he could.

"What's that?"

[I may be able to explain that] Nous suddenly said

"Go on?"

[Master is an Editor, a being selected at random by the universe for the purpose of ensuring peace and efficiency of the Universe, they are a neutral entity and Master has been selected to be one] Nous explained

"Does that mean you're some sort of god or something?" Fadila asked

"Probably, I don't know... Anyway the things you need to know is that I can edit reality and Nous was born from such an Edit"

"When did all these start?"

"Early Last month" David replied

Looking at her face, David felt as though he was in trouble. He clearly didn't do anything but she has yet to react despite all that was happening.

"That means you have an edit remaining them, use it on me" she said as a smile formed on her face.

Looking at her smile, David immediately began to laugh. He had forgotten, she was as much a geek as he was. Like he has accepted the power quickly and easily, of course she too would do the same.

"What? Am I not deserving of one?" She asked

"No, no... Don't mind me, its just I expected a different reaction"

"Well that's your choice, now about my edit?"

"Actually no, I can't... The second edit has been used"

"So soon.. what did you use it on?"

"The mountain, allows me do this" David said the pointed at one of the equipment on the table

Following her s thoughts, the item immediately began to float into the air. David had applied the 'float' effect on it.

"Telekinesis?"

"No, I can give thimgs any effect or ability I want, I applied the 'float' effect on it so it floats" David explained as he applied the same effect on her

"Woah!" She said as she slowly began to float

"Remove it!!!" She screamed seeing that she had no control

To help ease her, David held her and slowly dragged her down before removing the effect. The space maybe underground but it's ceiling was ridiculously high.

"You're okay now"

"But if you've used your second edit then what about me, what do I get?"

"Immortality, Endless evolution... Nous even said I made you a god"

"What does that mean?"

"Ask Nous, It's the omniscient one in this relationship" David said pointing towards the green being that was still standing on the table

[It means exactly what it means, normally such uncontrolled evolution would be a bad thing but even when not in duty or editing, an Editor's wishes still shapes their surrounding and in your case, it's not so uncontrolled] Nous explained

"Damn, you're really powerful" Fadila said

"I know" David replied with a proud smile on his face and took a stance

"Wait, nothing comes for free, why was the Editor power given to you?" Fadila asked as the smile slowly disappeared

"About that, The Adminstrator said that the Earth will undergo an event, now as for the size or what the event entails, I don't know" David said expressing his frustration

Even if he had decided to stop worrying about the Event for now, it didn't mean that he had stopped thinking about it.

It still weighted greatly in his heart, the very fact that a being as powerful as an Editor was created for it meant that whatever it was would be catastrophic.

"If there is such a thing then why are you focused on getting rich?" Fadila asked

"It is simple, I don't know what type of event it will be... Gods exist so it could be related to it, humanity is already on its way to destruction so it may also be something that I could do something about and it maybe something I can't do anything about... I will do what I can but for now, the plan is to become the most powerful in the world" David ranted.
