Chapter 66 - Coins!

"Haha cmon Mia don't talk about your husband like that" said Alex in a joking while Mia keeping with the jokes said "oh yeah why can you make fun of him" said Mia while Alex said with a smile "I'm practically his big brother it's only fair" said Alex while laughing at the end so did Mia unbeknownst to any of the party participants kirean was paying attention to it he saw everything ofcourse everyone didn't notice he is after all the forefather he has his method all in all he was happy with the outcome as the entire family of Mia had no opposition at all and were even happy especially when they found out that a good portion of the women were pregnant especially Mia she just got her family and now she was going to be a big sister afterall her brother and sister were far older than her she couldn't spoil them but that didn't mean they couldn't spoil her through out the entire party they would chat with Mia showing her pictures and pictures of themselves as kids which brought a smile to Mia, kirean seeing everything was pretty much satisfied afterall the ultimas even take Gaia as there own and she's a computer some even take her as kireans sister as she was made with kireans blood

As kirean was observing the party the announcement went out about the colony and 1,000 volunteers with a twist only couples without children could volunteer this didn't make the other unhappy as they raised their children here for generations they wouldn't want to live their foundations on Genesis were to solid to leave behind very soon the entire thing was filled with volunteers all that was left were to pick the 1,000 that were going to make the first ever Ultima colony, the next day Stephen woke up with a satisfied smile Mia was still sleeping next to him yesterday was like a dream to him, he and his wife both became ultimas and he finally got to drink that alcohol he always wanted to and it did not disappoint he also got to meet Alex's family his family was different from Mia's it was a military family all of Alex's descendants were in the military while Mia's were civilians as some may call it except a few like Mia's parents who were apart of the champion fleet they were ofcourse on leave as they had a child on the way they weren't fit for service, Stephen got out of his bed and decided to make his wife some breakfast as he came back to the room with a plate full of food he found her still at sleep so he sat next to her and said "baby wake up it's morning" feeling the touch on her face and hearing the voice Mia soon woke up and said "oh look at this you even made me breakfast being an Ultima truly changed you" said Mia in a joking tone while Stephen just smiled and said "yeah yeah we got work soon hurry up and eat"

"So how was it?" Asked Stephen looking at his wife who had a clean plate infront of her "it could be better" said mia with a shameless and satisfied look making Stephen just shake his head something's just never change no matter who you become and honestly he loved it "ok let's go to our office to do some paper work then we'll have to meet the avars again" said Stephen as he gave the plate to a robot who went to clean it as he headed upstairs followed by his wife the house they lived in was the biggest house in the space habitat it was build to stand as the center of administration, in an office you could see Stephen and Mia "so what currency should we use the star coins would be ideal but we have no way of making it we could produce the energy crystals and make them but then the economy will be tied to use with no independence they are too weak to forge the coins and they can't even fill it or they might die from over exhaustion" said Stephen holding his head it looked like he had a massive headache "sadly we had no previous currency on the ship to use for now or we can ask for subsidies from forefather like a billion asteroid coins would be enough to run the economy for a few hundreds of years enough to find a solution" said Mia as Stephen only sighed and said "that's the only thing we could do"

In a room kirean could be seen in front of Stephen and Mia at this moment as he heard of their problems he first frowned then relaxed he didn't foresee this problem he knew that they can't make a star coin lower than asteroid as the runes on their bodies won't go that low it's either they make the runes worst or find another way luckily he didn't have to think by himself as he called in amber and told her about the problem "forefather we can definitely try to artificially create the energy crystals with downgraded runes we can even fill them with the runes but the problem is we never thought we would encounter a problem where we had to downgrade to solve it and realistically speaking we can definitely do it in about a day but we need a category for the coins that will come out as the energy will be ridiculously low compared to asteroid coins" said amber a little conflicted as who would want to downgrade their own primordial runes that been with them since the dawn of their species kirean felt the same way but it was necessary "just name it after the species it was made for, for example the avars have avar coins every species we have will have their own coins" said kirean as he didn't want to put to much thought into this problem
