Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Emma held his breath. Only his eyes were moving from one corner to another. He was even more scared than when he died. His clothes had been drench in a cold sweat. The perspiration that was coming from his body was like a person who was running a marathon race.

[What are you.... Can't you communicate? What type of life-form are you?]

Hearing another word, Emma was confused. 'life-form.

"What do you mean by life-form," Emma murmured subconsciously.

[So you can talk.]

"You heard me," Emma asked, shocked.

[Of course, I heard.]

"...Where are you, ... let me see you... before you eat me…." Emma gulped. He decided to know his fate. He wanted to see the unknown evil spirit before it devoured him.

[Who wants to eat you.]

Hmm!

Emma became puzzled. "Are you not here to devour my life?"

[Why would I do that? Besides, I can't even do that.]

Hmm!

"Really, then show yourself"

[I can't. I'm in your brain. So you can't see me.]

What!

Emma stood up abruptly. He started shivering. "You've started devouring my brain. Ah God. Why me." Tears dripped from Emma's eyes.

[What do you mean? Have I devoured your brain.]

[Can't you use your sense for once. If I had devoured your brain, you think you have the chance of talking. Are all of you this redundant and brainless fool.]

En!

Emma stopped all his actions. He couldn't believe he would be scolded by an unknown object and be called a brainless fool. He calmed himself down and rationalized his thinking.

"Ok, if you are not devouring my brain. Tell me everything about you and I would do likewise."

[I can't tell you everything about me for now. But I'm an advanced low-level mother Ai that was lost during a war. The part of the ship I was in, crashed into this world. And I somehow got attach to your brain.]

Emma received the info and sat on the bed. He tried to be calm and digest what it sent to his brain. His rationality told him that this was not possible.

"You're not from this world," Emma murmured. 'I also am not from this world'

[Yes, am from a faraway galaxy.]

Hmm!

"Galaxy?"

[Yes. there are many universes and galaxies in deep space. The space is endless.]

'So there are many things happening all around. Our insignificant world was too little to know about it. This life I won't make the same mistake again.'

"So you are an Ai from another galaxy and from a different universe. And due to war you somehow crashed in our world and got attached to my brain."

[Yes]

"Can someone remove you from my brain?"

[No, I'm now part of your brain.]

"As this happened before. An Ai that got attached into someone brain without someone implanting it there"

There was no response for few seconds.

[No.]

"Then how do you got attached to my fucking brain."

[I don't know. It had never happened before. I don't like it. I'm stuck on you. Useless life-form.]

"Who are you calling useless life-form? And besides, what do you mean by life-form."

[See. If you are not useless won't you know what it's called life-form.]

"I know what it's called Lifeform. But we are not life-forms. We are human beings." Emma was furious.

[I'm receiving many pulses from your brain. Don't get agitated over anything. When you failed to use your brain to the fullest isn't being useless.]

"What do you mean by we did not use our brain to the fullest?"

[None of you in this world uses their seventh brain. Besides the sixth brain was only been used on an average of 10 percent.]

"Really!"

[Why would I lie? When I entered your world, I had already scanned and download all the information in this world. No one uses their brain than what I said.]

"En! Though we did not use our full brains. We are still developed and advanced with a lot of techs and AIs."

[Frog at the bottom of the well.]

"What do you mean? Are you jealous of our advancement?"

[I know you are dumb. But I don't know you are this dumb. I entered your world without been noticed with all the security you've put in place. If am an enemy won't I destroy your world without you knowing? Besides, all your tech are all toys in my eyes.]

Emma: " "

[This is a backward universe. I can see nothing significant…..]

'If this a backward universe. What about my universe?]

"That enough," Emma yelled. He forgot he was in the middle of the night and not caring about the evil spirit.

[I'm just stating the fact. Why all this agitation?]

Emma took a deep breath and calm himself. 'Why am I getting agitated over nothing? Seriously, I need help.'

[Have answered all your question. Now answer mine. What are you?]

Emma raised his brow, puzzled. "I'm a human being."

[Dummy, I know you are a human being. But you're extremely different.]

"What do you mean?"

[You're just an empty vessel. Your brain is empty except for some basic instinctual needs. Nothing's there. You're not worth spending resources on. You should be killed to save valuable resources.]

Emma: " "

'This is not my actual body.' Emma thought. 'But I can't deny it. The live style of Emma was just like my own. So basically we're almost the same.'

Emma was quiet and shocked. The evaluation of his life was nothing but a waste of resources. He did deep thinking back on his life and the memory of the previous Emma. He had truly wasted his life achieving nothing. He played VR games when he was young and became addicted to them. He never went to his school. His parent tried their best to give the best viable future.

But he wouldn't listen, he loved to hang out with his friend and waste his life on VR games. He would steal his parent's money and use it to purchase skills in the VR game. Though he sucks at it, he still preferred it rather than study.

When he got older, he went to clubs and wasted his life on heavy alcohol. He lived a debauchery life. 'Why would I have to work when there are many AIs that could assist us...' Those are his naïve words

'Though I don't have AIs in my world. I live my virtually the same as him.'

Emma wept. His parent cried and suffered because of all the atrocities he committed. And now he would have died if not for the lady luck on his side. "I would have wasted my parent's effort on my life….." He sobbed.

After weeping for a few minutes. Emma rubbed off his eyes in the darkness. His eyes had regained some clarity and determination. Like someone that receives an epiphany. 'I won't be useless.'

"Since you're attached with me. There is a way for me to change my life. Right?"

[Yes.]

"Good!" Emma smile. 'I refuse to be useless again. This life, I'll reach the peak of this world. No, the universe.'

"Where do I start"
