Chapter 61: Women
Chapter 61: Women
In summary their whole ordeal was to ensure that the host doesn't die from otherwise fatal injuries. They wouldn't heal you however they wil ensure that you remain alive until help arrives.
However this wasn't their actual main aim. They were there to enhance the future mercenaries that would be working under him.
These people even after the explanation couldn't truly understand what was going on, he could tell in his current form. Accessing their minds was as easy as child's play.
Well most of them didn't understand what was happening so the plan was simply for Nous to inject them with he nanites which would enhance them not only physically but also mentally so that during their training, they could at least be taught.
After the first man, the others followed and each time, David had to descend to conduct the contract. He wasn't complaining about it though.
It was the first time he was actually feeling the true power of the Editor even if said power was halved because this wasn't his true self... this was simply a mental copy of him though his consciousness was still linked to it.
Almost an hour passed before they had all signed the contract, since they were all done. Nous took them to their accommodation.
The compound was incredibly large covering a total of about 100 hectares. This allowed for each of them to have access to a fairly large room.
Since she had settled the other party in, Nous finally turned her attention to the females. Their situation was a bit special.
Unlike the men who were here solely to join the Compound, these ones were simply here because David wanted to get them off the streets.
"Good day to you all, you all can call me Nous, I am the one in charge of this facility. Please if you can speak English, come forward" Nous announced
Obeying her, several women came forward as the Nous hologram stepped down from the platform to meet the women.
"Please can you help me give these to the others, it will help translate what I am saying" Nous said to the women as she pointed towards a small bag full of what looked like ear pods.
The women immediately did as she said as they all went about telling the others what they were told and giving them the ear pods.
Thirty minutes later, the device was shared amongst the women and Nous was finally back on stage. With the men, she couldn't care less if they understood what she was saying, if they didn't then they would learn during the training.
"Okay thank you all for coming, before that I would like to ask for those who came here with the intention to join our small army?" Nous asked.
Of course, she wouldn't be stupid enough to think that all of them came here for the purpose of shelter and just as she had thought, they were a few of them who had come to join the paramilitary.
"Okay then, I would like to tell you the truth about this line of work but you all seem to know so we'll skip that, you all can wait for me in that corner, I will address you all when I am done with them" Nous said as they all nodded and moved
Turning her attention back to the other women, Nous stood upright as she began.
"Good day to you all once again, I know you all are here for the shelter you were promised but as of now, that shelter is still currently under construction but before then, you will join the rest in training as you will be required to work to make your own money" Nous explained.
"Then where would we stay?" a lady asked while holding down her children to the best of her ability.
"You will be staying here for now and you will be joining them for training until your accommodations are complete".
"Which one be training again?... no be wetin una tell us be this oo" Another lady complained in pidgin but Nous chose to completely ignore it
Her complaint didn't really matter much to her, the company was doing them a favour and she was complaining. Nous didn't care about how the women's thoughts worked but she had work to do.
Stepping down from the platform, she approached the other group of women.
"First point, you all do understand that this is illegal... we may one day work with the
government but it is still illegal in this country and even if you are working for the government, if caught, they will deny you... that is the premises of this entire business, do you understand?"
"Madam, we have phones to browse and learn from" one of them said as Nous smiled
It seemed they were ready though like the men, they too didn't understand the true meaning
of joining such an organization. It was in the same manner that people joined the military in search of glory and honor but then they meet the difficulties involved.
"Since you all understand what you are getting into, I would also like to inform you all that you will receive no special treatment during the training, if the men get shot, you will get shot at as well" Nous said just to inform them.
"Ah, shot at during training, doesn't that part come after training"
"It does but I am simply stating a fact for now, anyway, you are to join the rest of the women, you go through that though to get your medical details so that we can treat you if treatment is required" Nous informed them before turning to leave to announce it to the other women.
"Una dey talk am as if, una fit cure cancer" one of the younger ones amongst them said jokingly as Nous simply smiled and continued on her way.
An hour passed by as Nous repeated the contract and the medicals with them while separating those that required some treatment. David himself was more than happy to reappear as the Editor after all, such level of omnipotence was intoxicating.
....
'Una' means You people or you guys
"Dey talk" simply translates to 'Say'
'Fit' here means 'can'
I know pidgin is weird but its worth learning
