Chereads / Crux and Quantum Dimension / Chapter 11 - The Purpose

Chapter 11 - The Purpose

Maria Gale is Professor David Gale's wife and Elizabeth Gale's mother.

She is around 40 years old but looks like she's 30.

She is about 5.5 feet tall and weighs around 55 kg.

Her face looks very similar to Lizzie's, even her eyes are blue like Lizzie's.

She has thick eyebrows and her eyelashes are quite curly.

Her nose is also pointed like Lizzie's, but Mrs. Gale has slightly fuller cheeks than Lizzie's.

She also has wavy blonde hair and small diamond-like earrings in her ears.

"Hello, my name is Maria Gale. Since you are Lizzie's friends, you can call me Aunty Ria," said Lizzie's mother, smiling at Crux, Jun, and Yuki as they just met her.

"Okay, Aunty. Let me introduce myself, my name is Thiago Crux Rodriguez. Just call me Crux. Thank you for having us here," Crux said to Lizzie's mother.

"You're welcome, I'm also glad that you have accompanied Lizzie during her vacation. Lizzie always forces me to let her work at the restaurant during the holidays. Finally, she has friends to spend the holiday with at the villa," Lizzie's mother said, laughing.

"Hmm, if you're Crux, then you must be Jun, right?" Lizzie's mother asked, pointing to Jun.

"Ehh, yes Aunty. Let me introduce myself, my name is Jun Kyosuke. I usually called Jun," Jun introduced himself to Lizzie's mother.

"Ah, I hope you won't read my mind right away, hahaha," Lizzie's mother said, already knowing Jun's ability from Professor Gale.

"Hehehe, not at all, Aunty. Don't worry," Jun reassured Lizzie's mother.

"And you must be Yuki, right? I hope you can sleep with Lizzie," Lizzie's mother said, smiling at Yuki.

"Ah, yes, Aunty. My name is Yuki Hime. So far, I'm comfortable sleeping with Lizzie," Yuki reassured Lizzie's mother.

"I'm also comfortable sleeping with Yuki, Mom. I even slept very well last night," Lizzie reassured her mother.

"That's good then. I heard you want to go sightseeing using the skyscape, right?" Lizzie's mother asked.

"Yes, Aunty, that's correct. If it's okay, we would like to go around the city and see the surroundings. Because we are new here, we want to know what the city is like," Crux said to Lizzie's mother.

"Oh, sure, that's okay. Willy will accompany you later. So Aunty doesn't worry too much about all of you guys," Lizzie's mother said.

"Okay, thank you, Aunty," Crux thanked Lizzie's mother.

"Thank you, Mom, I love you," Lizzie said, hugging her mom.

"Yes, take care. Take care of yourselves," Lizzie's mother said, hugging Lizzie.

"Okay, Mom. We're going to skyscape, let's go guys." Lizzie said, inviting Crux, Yuki, and Jun as they walked out to the skyscape.

"We're going now, Aunty, Professor," Crux said, bidding farewell to Lizzie's parents.

"Please take care of Lizzie, if she does anything weird, just report it to Willy." said Professor.

"We will be just fine, don't worry, Professor." Jun reassured the Professor.

"We all can control our ability now, Professor." Yuki also reassured the Professor.

"Wow, your progress is quite fast, But, don't use that in public to avoid causing a disturbance.." said the Professor, impressed with their ability that quickly master their respective abilities while also warning them that their abilities could attract attention.

"Of course, Professor, except in emergency situations." Crux said.

"See you tonight, Professor." Jun said as he, Crux, and Yuki headed to skyscape.

But as they walked out the door, they meet Willy.

Willy was carrying the clothes they had left in the Professor's room yesterday.

"Willy, is that our clothes?" Jun asked Willy.

"Oh yes, the Professor forgot to take them from the luggage. So I delivered them." Willy said.

Jun looked into Willy's eyes and tried to read his mind.

But Jun didn't hear anything from Willy's mind.

"Thank you, Willy, you can put them on our bed." Crux said to Willy.

"Okay." Willy said and he's going to go in.

After that, they entered skyscape.

Inside skyscape, Lizzie was already there, using her helmet mode.

Seeing this, Crux remembered that he wanted to ask about how to contact people using the helmet mode.

"Lizzie, I want to ask something about the helmet mode." Crux said to Lizzie.

"Yes, what do you want to ask, Crux?" Lizzie asked Crux.

"How can we contact someone through this outfit?" Crux asked Lizzie.

"First, you have to activate your helmet. Then press the logo on the left side of the helmet to activate long-distance communication. After that, just say the full name of the person you want to contact to the AI." Lizzie explained how to contact someone to Crux.

"So we can contact anyone as long as we know their full name?" Crux asked Lizzie again.

"Yes, and as long as their name is registered in Tech Company." Lizzie said.

"So, are there people whose names are not registered in Tech Company?" Jun asked Lizzie.

"Of course, people under 19 are not registered in Tech Company because they are not mature enough to use outfits like we do." Lizzie replied.

"They only use regular identity outfits that can only change appearance and don't have AI in it." Lizzie continued to explain.

"Oh, I got it." Crux said as he tried to contact someone using his helmet.

Crux put on his helmet and tried to contact Mark.

He remembered Mark's full name was Jonathan Mark.

As he tried to reach Mark, he could also see Mark's position from his helmet's visor.

After successfully connecting with Mark, he was surprised to see Mark's face in the helmet's visor.

"Wow Mark, you're in my helmet's visor," Crux said to Mark through his helmet.

"Hey Crux, how are you? You're already used to your outfit, huh? Hahaha," Mark said, laughing.

"Hey Mark, I'm doing fine. I'm just trying out long-distance communication using this helmet. What are you up to, Mark?" Crux asked.

"Ah, I'm just cleaning my skyscape at home. You can see my position from the helmet, right Crux?" Mark said.

"Your location is in region G, which is quite far from my current position. Is that your home location?" Crux asked.

"Yes, Crux. Before I return to region S for school, I have to clean my skyscape to avoid any issues during the long journey to region S," Mark said.

"Ah, I have to go now, Crux. My parents are calling me. See you later," Mark continued, ending his long-distance communication with Crux.

After contacting Mark, Crux opened his helmet.

Yuki and Jun were curious about who Mark was contacting.

"Did you contact someone?" Yuki asked Crux.

"Yes, I still remember Mark's full name, so I tried to contact him," Crux replied to Yuki.

"He's in region G with his family at his home," Crux added, informing about Mark's situation.

Upon hearing this, Yuki thought of something that might satisfy her curiosity.

Yuki thought of contacting her mother using her full name, Erika Yuki.

She hoped her mother was already using an outfit like theirs so she could reach her.

Yuki immediately put on her helmet and pressed the S logo on the left side of her helmet.

Then she said her mother's full name, Erika Yuki.

However, there was no Erika Yuki in the Tech Company's database.

Yuki opened her helmet and became even more unsure if her search for her mother would end positively for her.

She thought that if her mother had come here before them, she must have already obtained an outfit or identity like they had.

"Did you contact Mark too, Yuki?" Crux asked Yuki.

"Ah, no. I just wanted to see how it looks like," Yuki said to Crux.

However, Jun could hear Yuki's thoughts as she glanced at him.

Jun understood why Yuki didn't tell the truth.

"Why is Big Will taking so long?" Lizzie asked, wondering why Willy hadn't returned to skyscape.

"Earlier, when we passed him, he said he wanted to bring our clothes that were left behind. I told him to put them on the bed," Crux explained what Willy was doing.

"I'll go check him what's taking him so long," Lizzie said, wanting to see what Willy was up to.

However, Willy was already seen leaving the villa and walking towards skyscape.

Seeing this, Lizzie decided not to go out and check on Willy.

"Ah, there's Big Will," Lizzie said, seeing Willy from the skyscape window.

When Willy arrived at skyscape, he sat near Lizzie.

Meanwhile, Crux, Yuki, and Jun were sitting across from them.

"What were you doing in the house, Big Will?" Lizzie asked Willy.

"I put something of theirs that was left in the professor's room yesterday, and then I went to the bathroom," Willy replied, revealing that he went to the bathroom after putting their clothes away.

"No wonder it took so long. Why didn't you say you needed to go to the bathroom, Big Will?" Lizzie said, looking a bit annoyed.

"I was in a hurry to use the bathroom. I didn't think to tell you about it before, Lizzie. I'm sorry," Willy apologized to Lizzie.

"Okay, let's go quickly," Lizzie said, sounding a bit grumpy.

"Where are we going?" Willy asked Lizzie.

"To S Hospital," Lizzie replied firmly.

"Alright. Are you feeling unwell, Lizzie?" Willy asked Lizzie.

"Yes, I'm not feeling well. I feel like I want to be angry all the time," Lizzie replied still sounding grumpy.

"I think that's because you waited for me too long," Willy replied innocently.

"Of course it's because of you, D!ck Will," Lizzie said, slightly annoyed.

Seeing Lizzie's annoyance, Crux tried to explain their reason for going to the hospital to Willy.

"We actually want to visit someone in the hospital, can you take us there?" Crux asked Willy.

"Alright, Crux. I'll set skyscape to go to S Hospital. It'll take about 30 minutes to get there," Willy said, quickly setting the control panel in the middle of skyscape to head to S Hospital.

They then headed to S Hospital.
