Stellar Core Empire

by Lord of Admirals

Why didn't no one tell me that creating an Inter-Dimensional Empire takes years to make. I had to experiment and develop advance technology that seems Un-obtainable. I had to spent many years teaching and raising children to help me rule. I had to spend years of my life in creating an Empire, and now I have to deal with the universe trying to destroy it. Let's get this over with.

1. The Ship

Lord of Admirals, reporting.

This is the main story I've been writing, thou it is going to be slow from what I'm seeing. This story has more along the lines of Nanoha elements to it with major crossover references and Major amount of my OCs.

Chapter 1

Every once in a while I would ask myself, "Should I have gone through that hiking trip or just stay at home and played videogames in depression… alone?"

And my answer would be;

"Yes, without a doubt, I would go on that hiking trip."

If I didn't I wouldn't have found this bitchin large ship that can travel to other galaxies, universes, even Dimensions, and holds much technical advanced data that can boost mankind's advancement a millennia, not that I would give in to the people or the governments since I don't trust either. And I wouldn't be the person I am today!

First of all, my name is Corona Aster, or just simply Caster since it is an abbreviation of my name. Caster is also my online name and other abbreviated ones that were already taken on some other websites. I look like a young adult with a body that I am quite proud of, standing 5'3" with a figure of B33/W23/H34 and weight of 98lbs, long maroon red hair that reaches my upper thighs if I leave it alone with long spiky bangs, and I have deep maroon eyes that aren't my original colour, something about my body being augmented that made my eyes turned red.

Secondly, I am a certified Engineer. Before I found myself in Fólkvangr, which is the ship I discovered, I specialized in Mechanical, Electrical, Telecommunications, Control, and Computer Engineering. I am what they would call a Genius. Right now, I can just simply call myself an Engineer, yet I'm still learning. I like to learn. I'm more of hands on kind of learner, which is hell for me since School is more of 'Here's a book, read chapters this and this, and we'll have a test by the end of the week,' which does not suit me. That would explain why I'm good at operating heavy equipment and able to learn flying helicopters and planes so easily, thou I had to struggle with the theory.

Thirdly, the ship I discovered is something that can be considered the Apple of Eden or the Lost Ark, technically true when I think about it.

Technically, I didn't discover the ship, it kind of found me. It found me a few weeks after the incident at work when my idiot of a co-worker caused an accident that he pinned on me, which my supervisor took for face value. I was fired on the spot. Days later I got called back when an investigation revealed who really caused the accident and I was offered my job back, but I declined since I didn't want to go back to a workplace that blames someone without any evidence. I was out of the job, living off my savings account that can last me for a couple years, so I spent the next couple of months watching anime, sci-fi movies, TV shows and playing games. It was more like a vacation to me that mellowed me out my depression for the loss of job… I like to work.

I was on my computer until I got an e-mail stating that I am a descendant of a King, which I instantly replied BS and went back to watching hardcore porn. I was then interrupted when another e-mail was sent with a blueprint of a spaceship called Fólkvangr. Now, I was really impressed with the imagination of the person who designed this leviathan of a ship, so I decided to humor this e-mailer. After much e-mails and arguments, I somehow ended up on a hiking trip to the north, thankfully it was summer. I was provided the funds to take such hiking trip by the gracious e-mailer, not once did I think of this suspicious, but it did leave me curious. I usually don't go hiking, but I keep myself in shape by doing morning jogs and going to a gym that teaches CQC. The person who teaches at the gym is someone who use to be a marine instructor and I am one of the regulars. So I was fit enough to take the hiking trip, thou I was still complaining during the trip.

So, I went on the hiking trip, which is a challenge that took all of my will to not turn back. At the end of my trip, I found a cave that looked like it came from a sci-fi flick and a pillar that didn't look manmade. That is when I was abducted. I was blinded by some light, I felt my stomach turn, I wanted to throw up so badly, and my head hurt so much that I blacked out from the odd sensations my body went threw. When I woke up I was greeted by the sight of a very lit office and I was sleeping on a very comfortable chair that is in front of a desk. Then I was greeted by a holographic projection of a woman who went by the name of Freyja, an Artificial Intelligence that maintains the ship Fólkvangr and my assistant that I 'Have' to call her Mother and let's leave it at that. I was then explained of my long lineage from someone by the name of Felicia Ragnhildr, who is a Sankt Kaiser that ruled the Belkan Empire, before she died and gave the crown to her little sister. As to why her sister and not her daughter Krisnacht, it is because of the war and her love for her daughter to keep her oblivious of the war. Because of the war Felicia sent her daughter away to live a peaceful life, who turns out is my ancestor that lived on a backwater planet called Earth.

I took this in surprisingly well. At first, I thought I would be freaking out of the thought of being abducted, but considering how desensitized I've become I was mildly annoyed of being abducted. As for Freyja, she began showing me around and began an orientation of Fólkvangr. A side note, I hate orientations.

Fólkvangr is a Planetoid Factory Colony Warship that has been traveling in the Dimensional Sea, a space between Dimensions. It is a Dreadnaught of a ship that the inside of the ship has city like structures and earth-like environments the size of a planet with a wonderful liveable atmospheric atmosphere. Fólkvangr is a ship with a pyramid structure as its center that is 13,500km from bow to stern, 9000km from port to starboard with 5000km as its apex and 3000km from underside apex to base, with the back holding three large propulsion systems along with smaller engines, with two large fins on the pyramid side that stretches far beyond the bow and stern of the pyramid, that also holds a living environment that isn't as large as the central pyramid, giving open space for the engine and the front of the pyramid for its main weapon, the fins are 7500km from port to starboard or from the Central pyramids corner to open space, 4650 km in height, and 22,000km from stern to bow with the pyramid structure being a bit in the back.

The thing about Fólkvangr is that the technology is vastly superior to anything I have ever known, seen, or heard of, whether in reality or fantasy. The problem is I can't access it all.

The way Fólkvangr works is that I must be ready to use such technology or know how to use it. It's like being given blueprints to a gun, but I don't have the tools or equipment to make it, or like being given a gun and told to go fire a few rounds not caring that I'm shooting in the middle of a busy street, I need to know how to properly use it without going too overboard. I have to understand what it is, how I'm going to make it, how to properly use it, and then I am given information of such technology. So I can't just grab a piece of technology and have Fólkvangr reverse-engineer it for my use. No, if I want to reverse-engineer it, I have to do it myself, while Fólkvangr will provide the necessary equipment and material for me to properly build it. Once I have the knowledge and enough experience to use such technology, Fólkvangr will provide me with techniques to how to use and make said technology with greater efficiency.

Considering that I know so much and I have an understanding of Earth Technology, I know enough that I took Fólkvangr's Throne. God that procedure was annoying and painful as hell. I was introduced into an augmentation procedure that changed my body into a living weapon, something about getting me ready to be the ruler of Fólkvangr:

First of all, my bone structure has become indestructible that I can survive an 18m drop and walk away like nothing had happened. Second, my muscles have been strengthened and flexed that I can do things that would normally tear my muscles apart. Third, my immune system has become strong enough that the deadly diseases from Earth are nothing more than a common cold to me. Fourth, my perception has greatly increased that I can now pick things up that can't be normally seen and I can now see clearly in the dark. Fifth, my heart has been augmented to allow adrenaline to safely run through my body without the risk of a stroke or heart failure, and I was given a second heart can safely pump blood throughout my body so I can run at speeds of 80km with no risks. Sixth, I was given two more stomachs that my main stomach can safely digest all sorts of food like raw meat while the other two acquire as much nutrients and carbohydrates as possible and store it away for prolongs time. Seventh, my body now has the ability to regenerate, this allows my body to slow bleeding, clot wounds, heal major organs, heal open wounds, and replenish lost blood, at a slow rate of course. And lastly, I've been implanted with a Quantum Relic, which is something that is beyond my comprehension at this moment, but I did notice that I can think and understand things more clearly that my already busy mind can pick up.

Thou I can do without the side-effects:

The first side-effect is that I have an animalistic mentality, thankfully it isn't noticeable, it is more like a pack mentality like an ape or a wolf. The second side-effect is a combination of the first one is that I can smell pheromones. The third side-effect is that I have no control of how long I sleep. I am fully awake majority of my time, so I don't sleep. As to when I go for sleep, I would sleep to pass the time, but I would end up sleeping for years instead of a few hours. I had Freyja to wake me up to rectify this problem. Despite the side-effects, I can live with this.

All this augmentations has brought my body to what it currently is and I will say that I quite enjoy having a body that many would kill to have, thou I can do without the rehabilitation and Freyja's annoying attitude about keeping my body in shape. I had to relearn how to use my body and I spent many months relearning hot to walk and to control my strength, it was a real bitch to not break my cups and forks. Once I relearned how to walk, I began the training that all Knights go through with Freyja as my instructor. I'm still not sure why Freyja said Knights.

I thought my training instructor back at Earth was brutal, but Freyja is such a slave driver. Freyja's training felt like what Spartans have gone through to become deadly warriors. Despite having a stronger and improved body to survive Freyja's training, her training still resulted with me lying on the floor in pain or with me getting my ass kicked by Holoprojected targets, not the human looking kind but more along the bulls eye kind, and that's humiliating. I spent another couple of months learning a fighting stance called the Kaiser Arts, which is something that I took in stride since I have some knowledge in hand to hand combat.

Once Freyja deemed me fit enough, which is a high standard I may add, Freyja began instructing me on learning everything of what Earth can provide. I'm a lazy person in heart, despite my desire to have a fit body, so I just downloaded all of Earth technical data into my brain, which I shouldn't have done considering I gained one major headache that lasted me a few years. Luckily I downloaded relevant data like blueprints, thesis's, theories, and information, so it was well worth the pain.

The first thing I did with that data was build a crude Nuclear Fusion Reactor, which is something that I was proud of since it doesn't produce any nuclear waste while keeping the loss of heat minimum. Despite it being Nuclear, It was clean energy. The one I made was considerably large and dangerous that I began fine-tuning it to make it run safely. Once I made it run safely without the worry of it melting down, I began to make it smaller, but have the same energy output. This was a hard task on its own, so I decided to make a myth real to make my task easier.

I created Red Mercury, which would normally make nuclear bombs easier, but I changed its use to produce Energy instead.

This greatly helped making my Nuclear Fusion Reactors to the point that I recreated a new Fusion Reactor that is safe, depending on its use, and clean without the fallout. Then I accidently created a new Fusion Reactor that kind of made Cold Fusion unnecessary, thou I made a Cold Fusion Reactor just for the hell of it when I was bored, and this Reactor scares me. Then again, anything that is a reactor scares me, I don't want to be blown up into smithereens.

It's called a Star Corona Reactor, which I named after myself.

With the use of Red Mercury and the use of special metals to make the body of the Reactor, a combination of Selenium and Technetium, I managed to create a Star Fusion Reactor that produces 40 times ten to the power of 26 Watts of Power, which is what the Sun produces… I was unbelievably scared of this Reactor. I was lucky enough that it didn't blow up in my face and incinerate my existence right down to the matter. A blast that size can easily destroy Fólkvangr, which probably explains why the reactor was smoothly made considering that Freyja is the one who helps me with my calculations and metal creations. Thou the Star Corona Reactor is small compared to what is powering the Fólkvangr, which I believe produces unlimited amount of energy.

After I calmed down enough to stand before the Reactor, I began figuring out how to use the Reactor's energy, without it blowing up in my face, thou I was reassured that the Reactor I made is the strongest and safest Reactor available to me, no matter what other Reactor I make. Besides Anti-Matter or Dark Matter Reactors is way beyond my current understandings, at the moment. I couldn't syphon energy from the Core of the Reactor, but I only manage to get the scraps, which is entirely based around Radiant Energy. The Energy on the Corona is more than enough to power Earth for 100 000 years alone, but at a slow pace.

Syphoning Energy from this Reactor wasn't the main problem, or so I like to believe, but mainly on how to syphon it. Getting Plasma, or Electromagnetic Energy proved difficult, so I just went with Radiant Energy, which helped me gather small amounts and help me understand Electromagnetic Energy a bit, but not enough to syphon energy from it. With a number of solar panels that can handle and absorb the Reactor's Heat, I turned the Reactor into a miniature planet with the Reactor as the Core, the layers of Panels as the Mantle, and with the Plating and Wiring as the Crust. I made a miniature planet if you will. With the easy part out of the way, then came the hard part.

The Calculations that is needed to handle the Star Corona Reactor needs to be calculated at an astounding rate. A Supercomputer couldn't handle the calculations, which was a pain in the ass to make and Freyja wouldn't let my use Fólkvangr's computer systems. So I spent a few years learning Quantum Mechanics and Computer Software and Hardware, something that I have some understanding from my Computer Engineering, which I used to create a Quantum Supercomputer.

The first Quantum Supercomputer I created took me 30 years to learn and create. The size of it's hardware would be a 5 story building that is about 2.5 acres in size. Even then it wasn't strong enough to handle the calculations to handle a Star Corona Reactor. So I began making it smaller, after Freyja provided me with techniques and procedures of making a smaller Quantum Supercomputer, and I managed to make it the size of a train car. Once I got it to that size I began making more of them and began linking them all up to handle the calculations. After connecting and linking up 254 Quantum Supercomputers, I succeeded in syphoning Radiant Energy from a Star Corona Reactor.

Once I learned how to get energy out of the Star Corona Reactor I began the long process of making it smaller, more energy efficient and life lasting. The process of making a Fusion Reactor small is a difficult task on its own, even with the use of Red Mercury, which I stopped calling it Red Mercury and just refer it as Corona, I enjoy attention and approval. I had to start from scratch and started with Nuclear Fusion Reactors. Once I knew all about Nuclear Fusion Reactors I moved on to Cold Fusion, thankfully I knew how to make one. After I made a Cold Fusion Reactor that is the size of a small car, I moved on to the Star Corona Reactor.

The original Star Corona Reactor is 18m in radius if I ignore the Quantum Supercomputers, and I managed to make one 3m in radius. I had to sacrifice the power output to make it that size, but it was enough for me to be happy with my survival. The Fusion Reactors can be small enough that it is the size of a 1L bottle, thou the energy output is small for personal use or for a small bomb if someone knows what they're doing.

As for the Quantum Supercomputers, I spent agonizing years to make it the size of a foot that has the power of 25 of the train size ones that I simply called Micro-Quantum Computers.

Because of my tampering in Reactors and Quantum Mechanics, Freyja happily told me I now unlocked 22.6% of Fólkvangr's Database.

When I entered Fólkvangr I had no access to the Database until I accepted who I am, learned enough of Earth's technology, took up the throne, and then I acquired access to Fólkvangr's Database. With the Database available to me I learned of easier methods of creating Earth Technology, which allowed me to make Fusion Reactors easily. Even with Earth's level of technology, I only had 1.4% access, which only provided ways to improve Earth Technology, but when I created the Star Corona Reactor I unlocked 12.9% and after the Micro-Quantum Computers I now have 22.6% access.

I then started the long process of reading what Fólkvangr is providing me.

Sublight Drives is something I thought I would never encounter, along with Faster-Than-Light Engines, Inertia Dampeners, Shield Technology, Cloaking Technology, and Dimensional Travel. I thought I had to Reverse-Engineer or figure out how to make them is when Fólkvangr will provide me with this level of technology, but then Freyja pointed out that Fólkvangr has to see that I'm capable enough to utilize this technology. Considering that I safely handled a Reactor that could have easily vaporized me into atoms, the technology I've been provided would be fine in my hands.

Now, if I didn't know better, I would say that I'm being prepared to go to another Dimension considering that Fólkvangr can't leave the Dimensional Sea at its current state.

So I did what I'm expected to do, I made a ship, which didn't meet Freyja's expectations since it would collapse in the Dimensional Sea. I tried many designs, which were ok to me, but Freyja didn't like the Engines, Shields, the Hull or anything that I add on the Design, thou she liked my tri-pronged shaped ships with the center larger than the outside prongs, much like a fork. From what Freyja keeps telling me, the Design of the ship is alright, the problem is the Shielding, the Hull, and the Weapons, which I haven't spent most of my time on, but considering I have blueprints of Earth Weapons than I am ok… at the moment.

Since I can't leave Fólkvangr, which I may add Freyja is adamant about me not being ready to leave, so I moved on to creating a society.

It can be really lonely when my only companion is a motherly AI who is very overprotective of me.

My specialization lies within Mechanical Engineering, so Medical and Bio-Engineering was a challenge for me to learn.

33 years, 10 months, and 21 days I spent learning what I can in the medical field and I successfully created a Genetically Enhanced Human, who just so happen to have a small portion of my DNA, which she might be considered my clone. I decided to call them GE-Humans, which is an abbreviated term for Genetically Enhanced Human since they were my first creation. They are a downgraded version of myself, which makes them smarter and stronger than a regular human, and are loyal to me considering I created them and gave them their abilities, despite how downgraded my gifts are from my own. The things about GE-Humans or any of my clones, I only managed to create females. Creating a male from a female is difficult, I only manage to make a woman seem masculine and that is as far as I got. Thou they do look dashingly handsome I say.

Anyways, Brynhildr Valkyria is my first that is born in Fólkvangr, followed by million more.

The society I created is a Monarchic rule with me as the ruler and I made sure that I am a fair ruler while making them intelligent and smart enough to think for themselves. I had to create an academy called the Star Core Academy or SCA for short that acts like a University and a Military Installation, since I wanted a defense force to protect everyone. I spend majority of my time in the SCA since I end up teaching Physics, Science, Math, Mechanics and any classes I can teach, and I spend some time learning Military Tactics while participating in firefights with the others.

I enjoy their presence in Fólkvangr, even Freyja since she spends her time teaching in the Academy, and can be considered a blessing and a curse. I am no longer alone which is the blessing, and the work load of paperwork signing patents for experiments and constructions while maintaining their safety is the curse. Looking after a large number of people, approximately 1,400,000 in Fólkvangr, it can be difficult when I have to look after them. Because of their large numbers in Fólkvangr, I had to assign a number of them to start a farming plant for food production, a few learning the medical field, a number of Engineers, Technicians and Electricians, a number of Maids that handle the cooking, cleaning and hidden security, and large number for security.

Brynhildr Valkyria is the Head of Security in Fólkvangr and she takes her job seriously. She trained a large number of personnel that can be considered a Militia that is devoted for my safety and to the people of Fólkvangr. I constantly had a security detail following me 24/7 and I had to plead to Brynhildr to get rid of the security detail, which she relented and just made the Militia train, do patrols, and maintain the peace in Fólkvangr.

The entire population of Fólkvangr to date is 1,425,523 and I am their Ruler.

With the populations helping me with my researches to help me unlock Fólkvangr we currently have unlocked 42.9% of the Database available.

Because of the extra minds and trained Engineers to help me out with my ship's development, I finally have my ship.

It's called the Matriarch of Creation, I didn't name it. I was outvoted and I have a soft spot for my people. It's very hard for me to deny them anything.

The Matriarch of Creation, or just simply the Creation for short, is a Matriarch-class ship that is a straight tri-pronged ship that are connected near the back and is 1450m long, 680m wide, and 250m high. It is equipped with 2 Star Corona Reactors with one devoted to the engines and the other with the shields, along with four Cold Fusion Reactors for backup energy. It has an experimental Dimensional Drive and FTL Drive, 5 Sublight Engines, 15 Maneuverable Engines, and multiple Inertia Dampeners to protect the crew from the G-force and speed the ship is going. The Hull is made of an experimental Alloy that was made in Zero Gravity and went through much refining, fusing, and deoxidizing techniques that takes months to make, but the end result is what makes this metal worth the wait. This ZG Alloy is dense enough to withstand 4500/8132 degree Celsius/Fahrenheit and can withstand repeated fire from a Coilgun and it is electrically non-conductive, which means it can't be detected by radar. The Mother of Creation's hull is 3.8 meters thick of this ZG Alloy. The ship is protected by an experimental Energy Shield that gives it extra protection, thou it has a downside of not allowing the Creation to fire once the shields are up. The weapons on the ship are 160x Missile Tubes with 80x on each side prong of the ship that fires assorted amount of missiles, 320x CIWS, 42x Dual Railguns, 18x Energy Cannons with majority of the weapons on each side prong of the ship, and an experimental Accelerator Coilgun at the center prong. It takes 2000 people to operate this ship and can hold a crew of 24,000. The Matriarch of Creation is an Assault Carrier Scientific Explorer Stealth Ship that has a Stealth Generator for infiltration and secrecy. If the ship is spotted, it can fly away or fend the attackers off.

I had this ship built to explore other dimensions mainly to acquire other forms of technology so I can unlock the Fólkvangr Database. Why I want to unlock Fólkvangr's Database is simply because I want to know what the big deal about Sankt Kaisers and Al-Hazard. Throughout my research and development, I came across references about Sankt Kaisers, which roughly means Saint Kings, and I want to know what they are. All I know is that Sankt Kaisers are the ultimate bio-weapon that the Belkan Empire had created, not Fólkvangr since it was created in Al-Hazard, wherever that is. This is why I had the Matriarch of Creation built, to discover new forms of technology for me to unlock the Database to figure out what those two are.

But there is one problem… I'm not the one who will going on such explorations.

Brynhildr is the one person I blame for not letting me going on such Dimension Runs, and she was backed up by Freyja. Both provided excellent points since my expertise lies in Engineering, not Exploration or Naval Flight, which Brynhildr has been training the Militia in. I could have gone as the Head Scientist or Engineer, but again I was denied of such things. Brynhildr was the one who commanded the Matriarch of Creation while I am the one who runs Fólkvangr.

I am a key figure to the growing Empire and I need to be kept safe. I started to feel like a prisoner, and I got angry.

As they left Fólkvangr and went to a random Galaxy, I remained and went into a Depression, which then turned into raging anger.

I dropped all my research and stopped teaching at the Academy, and just focused on venting my hate in training. I began running military programs that I created to vent my frustration, which made Brynhildr's Militia training seem tame compared to mine. I took a couple of GE-Humans under my wing and trained them alongside me as I took command of them.

The training I put them in can be considered monstrous, even Freyja put in her input for the training. It started out as simply improving their physical shape, from stamina, endurance, strength, and flexibility. Once that is done, they went through a series of training: Specialized Weapons, Ordinance Training, Stealth, Espionage, Assassination, Intelligence Gathering, Counter-Terrorism Operations, Personnel and Special Equipment Recovery/Capture, Unconventional Warfare. Each member took up a secondary field of expertise from ordinance specialty, electronics, mechanic, technician, pilot, communications, anything that they can fall back on, which can also be used on the battlefield. In essence, I created my own Special Forces called the Special Terrestrial Advance Resolute Service, or just simply STARS.

Once I was satisfied with our training I had us put up against Brynhildr's Militia in the War Games.

Brynhildr's Militia were decimated in minutes. My forces were like the Special Forces while the Militia were the grunts in the military, and my STARS were outnumbered 50 to 1.

With my STARS ready, I went back into research making starfighters, which Freyja approved of when I and 'My' Engineers came up with a starfighter. The Starfighter is like an Earth's jetfighter, only that it has a large Wing Attachment that is attached at the centerfold that points forward past the cockpit and back away from the engine like a spear tip. At its currently state it can only be used as flight training. Once that was made I had my forces trained to fly them and added a flight course in the Star Core Academy.

I didn't stop there. Once the Starfighter was made, which I called the Valkyrie-class, I moved up to making weapons, armors, ships and energy-based weapons.

The weapons are entirely Earth base until I changed up the design that has inbuilt Decipher which changes the ammo to the users specified usage, which changed the use since the ammo no longer requires gunpowder. The ammo can be considered a compressed energy bullet that is fired from an inbuilt Fusion Reactor, which can have explosive results. This is entirely heat and energy base that made my weapons deadlier than Earth's weaponry since it melts and go through metal, and of course it has hazardous results when a human gets struck by this weapon. Thou the Decipher is my main achievement on Energy-based Weaponry, which is deadly enough as it is, but when it goes through the Decipher it can change the projectile entirely. Piercing shots that goes through armor instead of impacting against it and melting it, Incendiary Shots that sets enemy on fire, Electric Shots that stuns or kills the enemy pending of the energy output and number of shots the enemy are hit, and Explosive Shots that are more like rocket launchers. The weapon is deadly enough without the Decipher, but now it can be versatile. This weapon is powerful and all, but the downside is that it overheats quickly and melts the metal, so I had to use ZG Alloy which keeps the weapons from melting, but I'm still having trouble with the overheating and the weight. I had to make vents for these weapons to cool down the weapon, which helps with maintaining them.

As for military wear and armor, I haven't gone too deep in uniforms or armor and just went with the military BDUs with Kevlar Armor, but I did create Optic Camouflage, which I had equipped to all of my Special Forces.

When it came to ships, I went back to the Matriarch of Creation and couldn't think of anything to scrap the design, but I did change it up a bit to act as a Warship that can carry 50x Valkyrie-class starfighters, have more cooling systems for weapon cool downs, an engine to enter atmosphere and leave, much more heavily armed, and given many maneuver attachments for evasive maneuvers and quick turns. As for the Valkyrie, they carry a total of 24 missiles from 4 attachments grouped into 6, and an experimental Dual Railguns attached at the underside of the fuselage with a CIWS at the sides of the cockpit. I can think of ways to improve the Valkyrie at this moment, but I can work with the fact that it can only act as a defensive fighter that protects the ship from other fighters.

With my Special Forces at its current strength I knew perfectly well that Special Forces won't win me a war alone, so I annexed the Militia and created a Military Army that is my main ground forces. I trained my soldiers like a trained my Stars, thou I had to tone it down since I handpicked my Stars. The training for soldiers is less rigorous than Stars, but still builds up their bodies and skill, and like the Stars, the Soldiers need a secondary career to fall back on. Once I completed the foundation for my Marines, I constructed another Matriarch-class warship called the Matriarch of Deception.

While the Deception was being built, I created another Special Forces group called Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, or ODST.

I created the ODST with the intent to be my stealth operators that will gather Intel behind enemy lines and in enemy territory. The ODST can be considered a downgrade version of the STARS, but with much more emphasis in Stealth, Recon, Unconventional Warfare, and Personnel and Special Equipment Recovery/Capture, Counter-Terrorism Operations, and Special Weapons Training. As for Orbital Drop, they have been training to drop into areas that can be deemed hot, from flying helicopters to Orbital Pod Drops. In short, they are the ones who drop into combat, clear landing zones, pinpoint orbital strikes, gather battle intelligence, and acquire sensitive information. The ODST still acquire more training, once the Deception is built for it to do Experimental Drops.

After the Deception was built, the Matriarch of Creation returned… 20 years later. In my need to vent I didn't notice how many years have passed.

When Brynhildr returned I thought I would have just punched her in the face, but I ended up waiting with open arms. It would seem my anger had vented enough over the 20 years that I no longer have the need to lash out at her, thou I did take some sort of satisfaction when she heard that I annexed her Militia into my Military Army.

Brynhildr came back nearly empty handed. It would seem that the Galaxy she entered was still in its infancy stage, but she did come back with the data of fine-tuning the ship, which is enough for me to fine-tune the Deception. With Brynhildr and the Creation's return, I had to introduce them to the new Military I had setup, Brynhildr instantly entered and became a high ranking member. After she went through the ranks, she created a Naval Force with her as the Commanding Officer. She sometimes pisses me off with how quickly she gets a high enough position when it takes others years to get to where they are.

After a bit more years of training and experimenting, I returned to where everything began.

"In this damn office," I muttered to myself as I sat in the chair that I woke up on while wearing a black business suit with slacks. "Freyja," I called and a holoprojection of the AI appeared on the desk before me.

"How can I be of assistance, your highness?" Freyja asked of me who looks like a fine businesswoman wearing a black skirted business suit with narrow rimmed glasses and hair tied in a bun. She also emits this motherly aura about her and when she spoke she speaks gently and sternly as one. She can also be freighting when she wants to be.

"What is the purpose of this… office?" I asked Freyja who motioned to the walls that began sliding away showing strong glass that reveals the Dimensional Sea around me, which looks like ordinary space with gleaming light that looks… frozen in space.

"This office is the main office where the Sankt Kaiser resides. Here as acting ruler, you will set Fólkvangr's course in the Sea of Dimensions to the nearest World you would like to send your ship. Currently, Fólkvangr is on an evasive course to avoid other civilizations that can travel in Dimension Space," Freyja explained to me as a holo-keyboard appeared on the desk with many holo-screens showing relevant data, along with by current database availability which is currently 45.6%. "Here you can sent out orders like assign troops, ships, research developments," another holoscreen appeared showing the list of researchers my people are conducting while showing their percentage completion, which I assume is approximation. "You can say that this 'Office' is where you can spend your time in thought and organize your growing Empire."

"I see," I thought as I looked over the commands that are before me. "This is a lot harder than I thought it would be," I said to myself when I can't figure out which button did what.

"What is it you require, your highness?" Freyja asked me as I pointed out to how do I move Fólkvangr to where I want the ship to go. "I believe these are the commands," she motioned to a glowing red button that I took memory of and pressed it. After I pressed the key I felt a shiver go up my spine and into my head as more holoscreens appeared with key commands. "Some key commands utilize the Neural Link in the chair that scans your brain for high efficiency."

"That makes… sense?" I said as the screen shows complex courses with many red spots that soon learn are other ships in the Dimension Sea. "Are those other ships?" I pointed out with Freyja looking at the screens before shaking her head no.

"In a way, your highness, those are other ships that are in a lower level of dimensional plane," Freyja pointed out while I had this confused look upon me. "In other words, that area of space would be considered normal space in the Dimension Sea. Fólkvangr is traveling in a space that is in a higher level where time is moving differently. In our case, Fólkvangr is currently 1000 to 1 year, which means 1000 years in our plane is 1 year in the normal plane. The reason why they are red is because if Fólkvangr goes into the red zone then Fólkvangr will suffer considerable amount of damage that we'll be pulled down to their level of time."

I honestly have no idea what she meant, but I do know that Fólkvangr can't go into the red zone and I can only go to areas that are… wait a second. "What about the dimension that Brynhildr had gone to?" I asked Freyja who conjured up a holoprojection of a galaxy that was partially explored and looked at it oddly before she started analyzing it using Fólkvangr's inter-dimensional sensors.

"It would seem that its time flow is flowing normally. It would appear that going into a dimension in our time had pulled it along Fólkvangr's. In other words, it is in sync with Fólkvangr," Freyja reported who looked disturbed of this development.

"You don't say," I replied looked over the reports of Brynhildr's exploration and the recent scan of that galaxy.

The galaxy that Brynhildr had entered is young and little amount of intelligent life. There are a few starships flying about that uses Mass Base Weapons and small empires that are steadily growing into space faring, but I can see the use of this galaxy. I checked Brynhildr's report of a planet that is roughly 2.3x larger than Earth, a day is 32 hours, 2.5x heavier gravity, 15% further away from the star, and a full rotation around the star is 405 planet days. The planet itself is habitable that has a rich environment of fauna and resources with the planet roughly 63.5% water. The planet has three moons that are full of resources with one moon being a frozen moon, which would be a great amount of water resource. Being extra careful, Brynhildr sent scientists to do a survey of the planet and came back giving the go for this planet to be habitable with drinkable water and breathable air with little to no toxins.

"Say Freyja, what do think of building an Empire in this Galaxy?" I asked Freyja who looked over the flowing Galaxy and read the reports before giving it some thought.

"It's going to be rough, especially with that Empire that is currently at the Nuclear Tier stage," Freyja said while I groaned before bringing up some research list that is going on within Fólkvangr and came across the Time Dilation Research.

"This might work," I pointed out as I contact the research lab and a young woman with shoulder blade length brown hair, dull scarlet red eyes with black bags giving her a tired look, light skin, standing 5'4" with a lithe figure with C cups and wide hips that can be seen with her lap coat and slacks.

"Hmm, is someone calling? I'm a bit busy at the moment," replied the woman who is looking at the screen before she waved me off and cut communications.

"…"

"…"

"… Damn that woman," I cursed before recalling and got that damn woman's assistant.

"Yes, hello, how may I help you?" the assistant asked who look like a meek little librarian who is still a young looking teen.

"It's Corona," I replied earning a gasp from the assistant who began stuttering and apologizing, which just made me groan while shaking my head. "Listen, I just want to know is how the Time Dilation System Project coming along?" I asked before the assistant was shoved aside and that damn woman appeared before the screen looking bored as ever.

"The Project has just been completed ma'am. We just fixed some of the bugs in its system and just finished the trial runs," she replied while pulling out a cigarette and lit it up before taking a drag.

"Ah, ma'am, there's no smoking in the lab," the assistant said off screen before the woman sighed and flicked it away, which earned the sound of a woman crying with more sounds of crashing and falling that sounded expensive in the background.

"Anyways ma'am, what is it you want?" the scientist asked not really caring who she's talking to, but she knows that I'm someone in a high position.

"How much space does the Time Dilation Field Cover?" I asked the woman who gave me a bored look while thinking of an answer.

"Depending on the power source, area to cover, and system, why?" she asked me as I sent her the data on the planet.

"I want that planet covered," I told her as she looked it over.

"Let's see here… we can't put it on the ground, there's too much of interference for it to work and won't make a connection with the other systems… perhaps in space and on a satellite to form a better connection… 256 of them for this to work for a planet this size. The power source has to be large, a Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor will be enough, but depending for how long they'll be active… Cold Fusion Reactors will have to do. When do you want this done?" she finally asked.

"Depends, when do you think you'll have it completed?" I asked her who gave me shrug.

"If I use the Time Dilation in my lab I can have it done by next month, but as for transportation… neither the Creation nor Deception will be able to carry these satellites, even if they take them piece by piece," she answered while bringing out another cigarette while keeping it unlit, much to her assistant's relief.

"I'll have the Engineers draw out a ship design," I replied.

"No need, I already had one drawn up," she replied back making me inwardly curse at this woman.

Helena Louise, you have no idea of how much I despise you.

She is like me when it comes to intellect, only that she is better than me when it comes to Mechanics. It was her who created the Matriarch-class ships and it was her who drew up the Carrier ships that are called the Matron-class that is similar to the Matriarch. Unlike the Matriarch-class ships, the Matron's center folding is much larger which is where the troops, equipment, and supplies would be stored, but the side prongs have extra attachments to t each other to keep the ship intact. The Matrons has the same engines, power and systems, only now that it is 1560m long, 670m wide, and 430m high making them larger than the Matriarchs. The thing about the Matrons is that they can enter and exit a planet's atmosphere, which the Matriarch can't do before I created a Matriarch War-class ship. This is something that Helena has come up with and that just pisses me off. I hate being upstaged by someone else.

"I'll have the ship and satellites built within the month," Helena said while I begrudgedly nodded in acceptance.

"Get some sleep Helena, you look like you need it," I replied with a hint of worry. I may hate the woman, but I do care for her health.

"Mmh, I'll sleep when I'm dead," she said back before connection was cut off before I could reply back.

"… Hate you too, bitch."

1 Month Later

Hangar B6

I really shouldn't be surprised of Helena's work. The ship that didn't exist last month is now ready to fly and loaded up with a tenth of the satellites that she built. Despite the ship's size, the satellites she made are large, and I am not even sure if I can come up with such designs. I really shouldn't hate her for coming up with such designs, but at least I can be happy about the Star Corona Reactor.

"So, what do you need," I turned to my right to see Brynhildr wearing some grey fatigues with a white star emblem on her left shoulder.

Brynhildr Valkyria, a 6' lean woman with medium length black hair with D size breast and underneath those clothes are lean muscles and a figure that many GE-Humans strive to be, well the ones who have the warrior mindset, and maroon red eyes that is a trait amongst those born on Fólkvangr. I maybe a head shorter then Brynhildr, but when it comes to a fight I can sure as hell kick her ass now that I have adequate military training, thou I can sure use more of it.

"Do you need the Creation to protect it," Brynhildr asked in a carefree tone, which makes a lot of the soldiers ease up a bit in the woman's presence.

"No, that is what the Deception is for," I answered which got me a confused look from the woman. "The Deception will be protecting the Matron of Diligence while it deliver its cargo," I pulled out a datapad and handed it to her who looked it over. "Those are Dimensional and Galactic Coordinates. I want the Creation to infiltrate and gather any form of intelligence from medical treatment to scientific advancement or any form of information. Once you complete that I want you to find another suitable planet to colonize close to the designated coordinates. I'm sure the Creation's crew are up to date with their training and expertise, so this will test them, and you," I said to Brynhildr who gave me a smile before giving me a mock salute.

"I won't let you down," Brynhildr said before rushing to get the Creation's crew to head out for the mission.

"You do realize that galaxy will be in sync with the one we're going to, right?" Helena walked up to me with a lit cigarette and her assistant behind her.

"I figured as much, but the world I'm sending her to is war torn and highly advanced in medical and technical advancement such as cybernetics," I replied back before we began walking up to the Diligence.

"That's nice, to reverse-engineer some tech and improve upon them, but I do worry of what is out there in that Galaxy," Helena said offhandedly with a hint of worry. "The Galaxy Brynhildr first went into seems low in level of technology, but are great in numbers. Once the Time Dilation Satellites are in place I'll have to start construction on more Matriarch War-class ships while setting up defenses all over the planet… maybe I'll turn one of the moons into a Fortress Base."

"That would be best," I said in a rare occurrence of me agreeing with her. I may hate the woman, but I can use some of her advice and she has a good head on those shoulders of hers. "We'll worry about that Galaxy for later, but right now we'll have to worry about the one we're going into."

"Ah yes, the Galaxy where the Stellar Core Empire will begin its conquest," Helena said while I turned away to hide my face from her, I'm not blushing, I'm not! "It's no surprise really, if I was in your position I would have started my conquest sooner or later, but much later if I do say so," she said as we continued towards the Diligence and came across a ramp into the Matron-class ship. "Now, are you coming along or will someone else will be commanding the Deception?" Helena asked me while I shook my head.

"No. I have to stay behind and build a better Incubation System. Sarah Grenadier will be commanding the Deception," I answered Helena who nodded to me and looked over to the Deception before accepting of who is commanding the Deception. "I'm also having 10 Maiden-class ships to be built using the Time Dilation System."

"The Escort Ships?" Helena asked of the lightly armed starship that we had come up with.

"Yeah, they'll be ready by the time you return on your second run," I told Helena who accepted my answer as she entered the Diligence with a backhand wave while her assistant, Natalie Moon, bowed to me before following her boss. "She could have just said bye or something," I said before leaving the Hangar and headed back to Central.

Central Fólkvangr – Main Incubation Chambers

The Incubation Chambers, it is a lab that I had constructed when I created the GE-Humans. It first started with a single oval Incubation pod that turned into thousands that are growing First Generation GE-Humans. For Second Generation GE-Humans to born I created a procedure that two eggs can fuse to grow a fetus, which allows for two women to have a relation and start a family. The Second Generations have all the strengths of the First Generations and have a regular lifespan as the First Generation, until they come to the Incubation Chambers to have an Extended Lifespan. At this moment there are currently Four Generations of GE-Humans and no signs of defects, thou there are minor cases of oddities when it comes to personalities, like Helena. It is easy to recognize First Generations, they simply don't have a belly button since they were grown in an Incubation Pod.

"Your highness," I turned to see one of the head scientists who are in charge of the Incubation Chambers.

"Yuri, did you come up with a better system," I asked the head scientist who handed me a datapad showing me the results.

"We managed to reduce the time to grow a GE-Human from 22 years to 12 years," Yuri reported as she motioned deeper into the building and into a large room filled with Incubation pods filled with growing Humans. "We also have lowered the time needed in Extended Lifespan Procedure from 4 year to 2 years," Yuri reported as we walked through the chamber as a few GE-Humans are going through the ELP, short for Extended Lifespan Procedure.

"That's nice," I replied before heading to another chamber that is empty and ready. "How long till the other Chambers are finished in construction?" I asked motioning to the extra Incubation pods.

"Four months until they are complete and ready," Yuri answered me while I thought of using the Time Dilation to hasten the construction, but thought against it since it takes precious care handling the Incubation Pods, also the fact that the expert in Time Dilation is off ship. I turned to Yuri who looked a bit worried as she looked over her report. "I'm sorry to say that we are still having problems with the Augmentation Procedures. The procedure will still cause a great amount of pain to the individual and the success rate is now 18%."

"18% is better than 5% Yuri. We'll still have to hold off the Augmentations until we have better technology and medical procedures," I assured Yuri who sighed in relief before relaxing. "Is there anything else?" I asked the scientist who shook her head. "Then I'll be heading to the Academy," I said before parting with the scientist who bowed as we went our own ways.

The Star Core Academy is a large complex that can be considered a fortress of activity. From young children to adults are in the Academy going to learn or train. As I entered the Academy's Main building almost everyone cleared a path and bowed to me, which still makes me uneasy of being respected like this. I like attention, but not this kind of attention. Whenever I teach a class, after when I calmed down, the room I'm provided with is a large auditorium and the room is always packed. But I'm not here to teach anyone at this moment, I'm more interested in how my Special Forces are doing.

As I walked pass the bowing students and recruits, I entered a train that'll take me to another part of the Academy that is away from the main building. As to why there is another Academy in Fólkvangr is because the Academy I'm heading to is where the Military training happens like flying starfighters, operating weapon systems for a ship, regular infantry training, and such. I wouldn't say that my Special Forces is the greatest, but I do accept the fact that it can use some work, but I do need a working military force that'll act as my main force.

The train ride is long and boring, which is why I always bring reading material with me. It roughly takes 2 hours to get to one of the simulated environments in Central Fólkvangr. Central Fólkvangr is full of activity, but I'm not even using its full capacity, I roughly use 12.5% of what Central is providing. The Fins of Fólkvangr are the factories and production lines that build the weapons, materials, and starships. The Port side, which is the left, is not even in use. As for the Starboard side I'm only using 2% of the factories.

I haven't even fully used up Fólkvangr and I'm already building up my Empire, which is probably while I ordered for more Incubation Pods to be built.

A sudden chill brought my attention to the window and I couldn't help but sigh as I came across the Star Core Academy Training Grounds, which is currently training in cold climates. I'm not a huge fan of snow, but I tolerate it enough to not be bothered by it, more like annoyed. If there was one environment I despise, it would be dense humid forests and hot desert. I don't do so well in hot temperatures, but I like the beaches.

The train got closer to the Academy and the train entrance opened up as the train entered before closing, which is a way of keeping the cold air from entering the building. As the train entered the Academy I saw the overhead temperature readout and shuddered at the temperature outside; -48 degree Celsius/-54.4 degree Fahrenheit.

"This is a surprise," said a woman who's been waiting for me wearing the usual grey fatigues with a White Star on her shoulder, a height of 5'7" with a lean build, shoulder length brown hair, and crimson red eyes. This woman is a high ranking member of STARS. As to the White Star, it's an image of a black sun with a white star inside that is a small circle in the center with four arrow tips on the sides of the circle that is above below and side to side with four small rhombus diamond shapes between the four arrows and to finish it is a white background that would make it look good on a flag. I originally made this Star mainly for my STARS members, but I instead I made it as my growing Empire's main Emblem.

As to why a member of STARS is greeting me is because this woman before me is a recruiter and a trainer who searchers for candidates in the Core to be recruited into the STARS, thou she has very high expectations.

"Isn't it a bit too much?" I said as I pointed to the temperature of outside.

"Not really, it's usually colder outside. It's one of those days when it is that high, thou I can do without the recruits bitching and complaining about how cold it is outside. Damn its cold," the woman answered while shivering before we entered further into the Academy and entered the main hall where we sat down at one of the resting areas, which is packed considering there are many recruits warming up from the cold temperature. "So, your highness, what have you come for?" the woman asked loud enough for everyone in the hall to hear, which I cursed since I wanted to have this conversation in private.

"A planet is being Colonized," I said to the woman while gaining murmurs from all around me.

"Really, so soon," the woman said acting like she doesn't know what's happening while knowing full well that she knows what's going on.

"Yes, I'm having 10 Maiden-class ships being built and I need them assigned with operators with a full security detail," I ordered while the woman nodded and pulled out a datapad of the number of graduates.

"Maiden-class ships you say," she stated and looked over the list before nodding. "Yeah, I have enough graduates to operate 10 Maidens," she motioned to the group around who cheered at the thought of finally being put into service. "Is there anything else?" she asked while I held out a datapad for her to read, which got her to thoroughly look it over. "This is a tall demand, I don't think we can provide you with the numbers you need to raise an army of this size," she warned me as I couldn't help but grin.

"Oh you'll be able to produce the enough operators and soldiers in the given time, what may have taken you a decade to train a recruit to a well-rounded soldier will now be done with the Time Dilation System that just been recently completed," I motioned to the datapad that has rough explanation of the Time Dilation that has ratio of 1 to 180 with a cool down time of 5 days, which means that 1 day outside the TDS is 180 days inside. As to why the Time Dilation System requires a cool down time of 5 Days, it is because the system that runs it needs to be reset so it won't breakdown and go haywire from overuse. It is a safety measure.

What may have taken years to train well-rounded soldiers can now take about 20 weeks or 5 months to produce, to normal time that is.

"Hmm, yeah, this will greatly help with producing fully trained soldiers," the woman replied before nodding in agreement. "Alright, when will this Time crap be installed?" she asked with such aloofness that I just want to punch some sense back into her.

"It's still relatively new technology and the head scientist who is an expert with this technology is currently off ship at the moment, so it may or may not take a couple of months," I said while shrugging my shoulders not entirely sure how long Helena will take to place those satellites.

When I asked Helena of how long it'll take for her to place them, she replied back with 'who knows' before cutting off communications before I could reply back. I hate that woman so much.

"Alright, it just gives me more time to prepare the troops," the woman said as she stood up and gained a wicked grin that worried a lot of the women in the Main Hall. "Until then, I, Josephine Valentine, shall train the graduates into the ground until their hearts give out and their lungs burst!" she declared, much to the graduates' dismay.

"I look forward to it," I said before leaving the Main Hall and the cold ass environment. I may have not been outside, but I sure as hell can feel the damn cold.

Fólkvangr Main Office

Now that I think about it, I really am moving quite quickly with my goal of creating an Inter-Dimensional Empire that'll conquer everything. At this moment I'm creating the foundation of my Empire and growing a Military Force to properly protect it. As for the Technical discovery of the Time Dilation System, this System would help hasten development and production with my Empire.

The world where my Empire will begin is near the Core of the Galaxy and in the main cluster of stars. Brynhildr was lucky to exit the Dimensional Sea close the center of the galaxy otherwise it would have taken her years to get there if she exit the Dimensional Sea at the edge of the galaxy. I'm not an astronomer or an expert with stars and I do not know what happens in the center of the galaxy. The only thing I can think of is that the center of a galaxy is a bunch of continuous exploding stars, or something along the lines of a multitude of blackholes. So the planet where my Empire will begin will be fine… I hope.

I'm no fool; I know it takes years for the foundation of an Empire to grow and many more to create a steady system for the people to grow happily in. The society I created is based around Monarchical, and because of my DNA manipulation of making everyone born in Fólkvangr my daughters, practically anyone can be the leader. Then again, with the way I think and feel, which was passed down, only the strong and wise can be the Ruler. This does explain why Brynhildr had so much loyalty during the Matriarch of Creation's construction, it's because the others saw her as their leader and they saw her strength while I was in the back sitting on my ass doing nothing. Thou I rectified this problem when I started training myself while creating a proper military force that trumped over Brynhildr's Militia and when I defeated her in both arms and hand to hand combat. I don't have to worry about Helena since she is more of an intellectual type and she is only interested in science and technology, thou I may have to keep an eye on her.

This will only cause me more problems later on if this is how my Empire will run. If I get lazy in my rule or get too distracted in my research, I'll be dethroned. I'm not even sure if I can handle such an emotional encounter if such a thing happens to me. The Empire is going to be run by a Ruler that has the loyalty of the people, the strength and power to protect them, knowledge and wisdom to lead the people. So, I'm going to have to put aside the Engineer for now and be the leader I ought to be.

With that in mind, I'm going to have to figure out how to get stronger and experience with leading soon.

"Freyja," I called as I rested against the chair as the AI appeared on the desk waiting. "Do you have any advice with leading people?" I asked the AI who crossed her arms and started humming in thought.

"There is one method of acquiring more power that is suitable for a Ruler," Freyja said gaining my attention. "You can say that this will provide you with the means to acquire power to protect your people, knowledge to enhance your technological advancement, and open a large percentage of the Database," she explained before pointing to the side of the desk.

I followed where she is pointing and saw a drawler in the desk that I didn't see the first time. Opening the drawler and inside is a small box that looked like it can hold something the size of a watch. There weren't any other drawlers or any compartments in the desk, so I just took the box out and opened it.

"What is this?" I asked Freyja as I pulled out a pendent that has a deep violet orb that is the size of a marble attached to it.

Freyja smiled before her eyes widen when she saw me twirl the pendent around my finger back and forth. A habit when I have something small in my hands like when I have a pen or pencil in my hands that I play with by twirling it around my fingers. Freyja's face gained a worried expression as she tried to stop me from twirling the pendent before I just put it on the table, much to the AI's relief.

"Please don't twirl a highly advance piece of magical technology," Freyja said to me while I just looked at the AI oddly. "… What?"

"What do you mean… magical?" I asked hoping that this isn't some Sailor Moon crap, while Freyja sighed and motioned to my chest before I felt a sudden pull from inside me.

I gasped as I saw a bright violet array of crystals was pulled out of my body and I felt a sudden loss of energy.

"This here," she motioned to the glowing violet crystals, "is your Linker Core. An organ within the human body that produces Mana for the individual to produce Magic, but the technology of Earth couldn't detect such organ and had no knowledge of an organ in the human body," Freyja explained to me before I felt another sensation that I suddenly felt slow in the head and I watched as the red crystals formed into one jewel before Freyja pulled it out, leaving a glowing white aura in front of my chest. "And that is the original state of a Linker Core," she pointed to the white glowing aura before she motioned to the jewel that is floating before her. "This red jewel is known as a Quantum Relic, its main function is to help you process and increase your magical potential," she said before she sent it back into my Linker Core turning it into a complicated array of red crystals that went back into my body, which made me feel relief.

"This Quantum Relic, it's supposed to help me learn magic?" I asked Freyja who shook her head.

"No, but there is a way for you to learn how," she motioned to the marble on the table. "System Unlock, Command Code; Alpha Seven Nine Delta Omega Zero Two Five Nine Cypher Gamma Five Seven."

"Acknowledged, locating suitable master," the pendent said that sounded like a monotone female computer voice. The pendent glowed while giving off a soft humming sound in my hand and I felt something odd inside me. "Linker Core found, establishing connection," the pendent glowed violet before I felt that sensation inside me grew. "Connection confirmed. This device's name is Force Gungnir."

"Force what?" I asked while holding up the pendent at eyelevel.

"I am Force Gungnir, an intelligent type device for the use of magic. Current user is fully capable of utilizing magic with readings of A-rank potential."

I just looked at the pendent-device and then over to Freyja who is giving me this hopeful look. I honestly have no idea of how I am going to rationalize this. Throughout my long years of life; I am a realist, someone who has to see to believe, and I am currently stumped of what I have just seen. Like how this all began, I had to see it for myself. Even when I was going through the orientation when Freyja was showing me around Fólkvangr I didn't believe until I saw it. Now, like last time, I'm going to have to give this another try of humoring them.

"Alright, think you can teach me… magic?" I begrudgedly asked, even saying that word left an odd aftertaste in my mouth.

"Yes, my master."

"Perfect!" Freyja exclaimed happily as she produced my schedule and cleared many slots that were replaced with training and considering that I now have access to Time Dilation my training is now my personal hell. "Now that we have that out of the way, it is time to restart and up your training regiment," Freyja said with a motherly sweet smile that scared the living hell out of me.

This is going to be a long training from hell.

To be continued

There we go, took me a while to put this up. My laptop's wireless connection doesn't work, is operating on its last legs which is slow as hell and I don't have the funds to buy a knew one. So I am left with going to the basement connecting manually and risk getting attacked by spiders to put this up, thou I have to fine tune the rest on my pad to escape the spiders.

Spiders is no laughing matter.

Anyways, this is going to be a weekly or a bi-weekly update, no promises. I still have to look for a job to earn money for a new laptop, so things will be slow.

Until then, ending report.

Loa
