Neurolink System in the Modern World

"Here's your drink, darling," Elaine approached me, handing me a can of coffee.

I had already erased all memories of the recent events from her mind.

Regarding Tia and her assistant, I was able to take control of them without any issues once the Moon Stone was removed.

I drank the coffee and then fixed my gaze on the box sitting on the desk. I decided to place the moonstone inside it, driven by my curiosity and the desire to learn more about this rock.

I won't give up easily; I know that there must be a way to get around this problem.

'For the time being, I needed to confirm whether this thing is indeed a moonstone. '

Unfortunately, her husband wouldn't return for two weeks. So, I decided to take it with me to the University of Seoul. I had heard from Elaine that there was a department there that specialized in studying stones, including meteorites.

"I'm heading out now. I want you to take care of everything here. Here's a wrap design sketch. I'd like a spacious office in this area by the window. For the funds, just consult Mrs. Tia; she'll provide you with the necessary money," I instructed as I put on my jacket.

"Are you leaving already?" Elaine asked with a disappointed expression. It seemed that she wasn't satisfied with our earlier intimate moment.

"Yeah, I still have a lot of things to do," I replied and walked away, no longer in the mood for such things. No one in their right mind would consider playing around after discovering their own fatal weakness.

I quickly got into my car and drove straight to the University of Seoul. The journey felt slower than usual, probably because I was growing increasingly anxious about this new discovery.

As I drove closer to the University , I saw the impressive view. The campus was spread out with well-kept lawns and modern buildings. .

There were big trees along the pathways, offering shade, and students were busy walking to their classes or chatting with each other.

My sports car naturally attracted attention from the people around. The university was bustling with ambitious students, all striving to make a mark in society someday, so spotting an expensive car piqued their interest. It wasn't so much jealousy as it was a spark of competitiveness, with many thinking they might achieve the same luxury in the future.

As soon as I parked, I noticed a group of women gossiping about my car. This had become a normal occurrence for me, so I simply gave them all a friendly smile. And like a domino effect, they began to smile back at me a hint of interest in their eyes. Among them were some beautiful women, but unfortunately, I didn't have time for them right now.

"Excuse me, can you point me to the Geology Department?" I asked a student. She had short black hair and was wearing eyeglasses. She reminded me of Ayumi, though she didn't strike me as particularly attractive and had a somewhat nerdy look.

"It's quite far from here, sir," she stuttered, clearly shy to talk to me.

"Do you know the way? Can you guide me?" I asked. The University of Korea was pretty vast, so having a guide would make it much faster to find the Geology Department.

Since she didn't respond immediately, I began to look around for someone else.

"I can show you," she finally answered, noticing my intention to leave.

"Thank you, lead the way," I replied with a smile.

With that, we started walking . A university was truly a world apart from high school campus. I was astounded by the vast array of buildings that greeted my eyes along the way.

Each of these structures appeared to be relatively new, boasting modern architecture and state-of-the-art facilities. The gleaming glass windows and sleek lines of the buildings reflected a commitment to cutting-edge design.

We continued walking until we reached a building marked as the "Geology Department." This structure had a more traditional and older design, but it was still quite big in size.

The outside of the building featured a mural that depicted geological formations and the history of the Earth, setting the tone for what one could expect to find inside.

"Thank you for showing me the way," I said, breaking the silence as I handed her 50,000 Korean won.

"No, it's alright," she shook her head.

"Just accept it," I commanded.

[Suggestion: Success ]

She accepted the money and proceeded on her way. I decided to pay her because I now had some extra funds from my sugar mommy, so I felt it was only fair to share my good fortune.

Inside the Building.

"You you want to meet with the head researcher? Do you have an appointment, sir?" the female clerk inquired.

"Yes, I do," I replied.

[Suggestion: Success]

"I will inform Dr. Hon," she replied with a smile as she reached for the phone.

"No need for that, just guide me to where he is," I commanded .

[Suggestion: Success]

"Alright, sir," she said, standing up and gesturing for me to follow her.

Along the way, I couldn't help but notice the wide variety of different stones on display, each with its unique characteristics and beauty.

They were all encased in glass, and I couldn't resist reading the information as I passed them. However, one stone caught my attention .

'Moon Stone!' I nearly blurted out, looking at a fist-sized stone inside a glass box.

'Seriously? What's so rare about this? I've seen two of these stones today alone!' I click my tongue in annoyance.

"Is this a real moonstone?" I inquired with the clerk.

"No, sir. This is just a replica. Moonstones are very sensitive; if they're not sealed in a vacuum space, they deteriorate pretty fast," she explained.

"They do?" I asked with a surprise tone. If that was the case, then why was the stone I had with me still in good condition? .

It hadn't shown any signs of deterioration, and considering it had been with Mrs. Tia all this time, I'm pretty sure it had been exposed to quite a lot.

"That's right, sir. Dr. Hon can explain more about "Moon Stone" to you," she added

"Okay," I nodded and went with her to the second floor. I had become more curious and wanted to learn more about the stone.

Whatever it was, I was certain that it was somehow connected to my powers.
