Finding Purpose In The Multiverse: Meta Essence Quest Mode

New Life And Progress

Entry 136:

Linus Ozias POV:

You know, when I think of Leonardo da Vinci, I think of the essence of the Renaissance man. In fact, I think he was the guy who created it or helped to create it or simply the image of a multi-layered man who exuded intelligence and wisdom.

"May I ask why you are so quiet young man? Oh, my beauty has definitely ensnared you, has it not? It is understandable, but a main character should be bold young magus!" The woman says.

I have no words. On the one hand, this is Da Vinci, as my lie detector has not gone off, and as such, I am excited to meet him/her, but on the other, this entire conversation is happening.

I sigh and say, "It is an honor to meet you, Leonardo Da Vinci I am Linus Ozias, Master Candidate number 49, and I have come to commandeer some space to create a workshop for me to use." The woman, instead of saying anything, yawns as she responds.

"Too formal 2/10 never say again! One must have flare, Mr. Ozias as if one is too controlled, it may dull the piece but too chaotic, and it means nothing or says too much." In all honesty, it is actually good advice.

"I apologize then, Da Vinci Chan, but I must get to work post haste to restore the Director to physical form." The woman then places her finger on her cheek in a thinking motion as she nods.

"Yes, we should get right on that, as I do not want to have more work piled up for myself. That's having someone to share the load definitely helps, you know." Such is the nature of coworkers to help divvy up the work.

The inventor then says, while smiling and taking my measurements for some reason, "I do not envy your position, young man. While you may be in the center of the story along with that orange head friend of yours, the burden falls on both of you to save everything. All of history and the fact that you may never even be remembered for it, are you prepared to walk that path?"

I simply say, "One may never be prepared for the chaotic essence of life nor the hero's journey, but I will do what I must. Everyone here will do what they must, and in all honesty, that's all we can ask for at this moment."

The gender-bent Leonardo, after taking my measurements, is now looking over a strange device of hers as she continues, "I have an extra lab next door, but we do share an open door policy here, so no luck doors, young man, and while I may understand you wish to have a private space to relieve yourself we're on a serious mission young man." As she says that, she waves her finger like a scolding parent.

I want to shout out and say, "Woman, I have a harem! I do not need to even do that anymore." But now is not the time to discuss my relationship status.

The look on my face must have been entertaining as Da Vinci began to slightly chuckle as she handed me the passcode for the lab. She followed me to it, saying, "I have also heard an interesting rumor, Mr. Ozias, that you are in possession of a reality marble of all things."

I nod as I state, "It's been a work in progress, a culmination of all my work throughout my life, and I am going to need it. Luckily, I do not have to worry about the taboo nature of a reality marble as the world has already accepted it."

This information somehow forms stars in her eyes as she asks quickly, "How did you do it? How did you get the world, including Gaia and Alaya, to agree to it? You must tell me, young man!"

All I can say is, "It was simple: why would they disagree with something that they helped to create." My words are immediately written down on our Notepad as she then asks, "What about the container you used to hold the director's Soul as I do not see it on your person."
