Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse-Chapter 117 Mr. Tree
After a nap, a couple more rounds, and a soak in the bath, Anya and I finally started our project. I practically had to drag her out of the bed after we were done.
I am sure that if I had let her have her way, Anya would have kept me in that swing for the rest of the day and possibly the next. Not that it was terrible, but I was itching to do something, and I wanted to see how Anya's powers worked.
"So, where are we supposed to put this crystal?" I asked, and Anya shrugged.
Anya looked around the room, but then looked back at me, pinching her chin with her thumb and the side of her index finger .
"Doesn't really matter. I just need to have access to it. As long as I can touch it, I can transfer memories into it, sort them, and put them all together. Once that is done, I can place them in crystals, but to use them isn't quite how you wanted," Anya explained, and I nodded.
I had taken time to look over her and the other girls' sheets while Anya had a second nap after our third round. The Crystals would project the memories into the person holding the crystal's mind, and more than one person could touch it at once.
"This is what I needed to do what I wanted. I can install clones at the theaters, and then they can hold the crystals and then create the scene on the central stage. We need to do much more to fine-tune this project, but this is exactly what I was hoping for! Not only can we create the movie theater, but we can also lend them out like Blockbuster!" I said with excitement.
"Blockbuster? What is that?" Anya asked, and I looked at her like she had spoken another language.
"You're joking, right? We are the same freaking age, Anya! Blockbuster was around when we were little kids, remember?" I asked, but she shook her head.
"Ugh! Well, before streaming tv services, there was a place that you could go and rent movies," I said, and Anya's face lit up.
"Oh! Like Redbox!" Anya said, and I facepalmed.
Redbox had been around for a hot minute and then was squashed when Netflix got more popular, yet she remembered that one! I wasn't sure if I should be impressed or cry.
"Sure, but the place had games with the systems you could rent and tons of overpriced snacks," I explained. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
"What happened to it? It sounds like a good place," Anya said, and I shrugged.
"Overpriced snacks, and the fact that half the people never returned the movies. In truth, it was Netflix, and having a store on every block paired with massive debt. Personally, I loved going there and renting game systems, but then I realized that it was much better to buy them, so I stopped, and they closed right after," I explained, and Anya nodded.
"I see, but your idea is good since we should be able to keep track of the crystals," Anya said, and I grinned.
"Have you lost anything yet?" I asked curiously, and Anya gave me a confused look.
"Lost? No, why?" Anya asked, and I grinned.
"You can't anymore. Mr. Tree is always watching; if you misplace something, you won't even notice it. Mr. Tree can read your intentions, and if you think you need something that should be near you, he will make sure it is within reach," I explained, and Anya's eyes grew large. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
"Really?! I hadn't even thought about it, but it is true that even books that I am thinking about reading end up in my library here without me even knowing. I had assumed that you had just put them here, but then I noticed that books were changing places. I just assumed that was something that you made happen," Anya said, but I shook my head.
"Nope, that is all, Mr. Tree. I guess that might not be correct. Mr. Tree is not one tree, but all the trees working together to help us grow. The trees know what the world was like before they came alive like they are now, so they approve of our never lifestyle. This is why they are all so willing to help us, so we can keep on the right path. We have been slowly destroying the world, so this change is welcome," I explained, and Anya nodded.
"That makes sense, and I am glad for all the help Mr. Tree gives us, even if it's more than one; I thank you all then... Did they just thank me?!" Anya exclaimed, looking all around her.
"They are just showing their appreciation for your kind words. The trees can't use words to talk. Instead, we have to feel the emotions that they send. They can also send me mental images, but they are for describing places, so I can keep tabs on everyone," I said, but Anya gave me a look, and I could tell what she was thinking. "No, I can't see like a video camera. Think of it more like someone describing the scene, and then my mind is the one that puts the image together."
"Oh! Well, that is very helpful!" Anya exclaimed, seeming relieved.
"What were you so worried about? Do you think that I would use it to peak on you? I just saw you naked three times, so I don't need to peak," I said, and Anya giggled.
"I know that you wouldn't, but if you can do it, then Melody can, right?" Anya asked, and I laughed.
"No, not unless I ask them to. Mr. Tree will help you all, but they are linked to me, just like you are all now. I also have control of all of your abilities in the way that I can stop them from working if something happens or goes wrong," I explained.
"Do you think that one of us will turn on you?" Anya asked, but I shook my head.
