{Welcome To The Lobby.}
After the Pod\'s initial set-up was done, the messages disappeared and Silas found himself in the Pod\'s lobby.
Unlike the Gear home screen, the Pod\'s lobby, which is the home screen, wasn\'t blank. An unknown application was already installed into the Pod.
Under the unknown application\'s icon, a single word was written under it; Domain.
Silas was surprised and confused at the same time. He naturally understands what the word, Domain, means but what\'s the use of the application.
"I wonder if LUNAR is here? LUNAR?," Slaas asked himself and called out.
Immediately, Silas heard LUNAR\'s in his head.
{Sir, you called for me?,} LUNAR replied.
"Yeah, I did. Scan the device and give me more information on it."
{I have already scanned the device sir,} LUNAR replied.
"Ok, let me hear it."
{Unlike the Gear, the pod offers extra comfort and protection, and everything the Gear can do, the Pod can do it better.
Unlike the Gear, the Pod allows the AI to work to its optimum ability. Though the Pod does not offer the conscious mode like the Gear, it compliments it with full body\'s condition monitoring, enhanced neural interface connection that allows the user to replicate their physical condition into the digital world.
The Pod can also be used for training as it can help the user to quickly replicate what was learned in the virtual world into the real world.
The Pod also has a temporary life support system that can support the user in case of emergency and critical medical condition for 24 hours.
Just as you may have noticed, it\'s one account for both the Gear and the Pod.}
"Neat!" Silas exclaimed in pure shock. He thought that he had become numb to the shock after hearing what the Gear can do, but his shock level was refreshed after he heard about the Pod\'s abilities.
"LUNAR, what is this and what is it used for?," Silas finally asked about the identity of the app called Domain, and it\'s use.
{Domain.}
{It\'s a platform that can be used by the user for anything. Just by its name, Domain, you can use it for anything, with your thoughts, create anything in it. It\'s the perfect platform to train oneself, psychically in the digital world.
It\'s a platform that replicates your actual physical stats and abilities into the digital world.}
Hearing LUNAR\'s explanation, Silas was again shocked.
"A platform that can be controlled by my thoughts, and I can create whatever I want in it, or even construct it anyhow I want."
"It also has the ability to replicate my body\'s physical stats and my abilities?! Insane!"
Unable to hold in his curiosity, using his thoughts, Silas clicked on the Domain\'s app.
Immediately after the app was clicked, Silas found himself physically standing in an empty white room.
With a mixture of disbelief, shock and surprise, Silas pinched his hand and he felt a sharp pain on his hand.
"Hisss.. That hurts."
He knew that it wasn\'t actually his physical body that appeared but a replication of his physical body into the virtual world, but he felt the need to confirm as he couldn\'t believe the level of realism achieved by the Pod.
After he was finally brought out of his shock, Silas noticed his surroundings.
"Is this what the Domain looks like? Just a white room?," Silas asked himself in surprise.
"I remember LUNAR saying that it can be controlled by my thoughts. Let\'s try it out," Silas said and gave out a mental command.
Immediately, his surroundings changed and he found himself standing in his bedroom.
"Nice. It can really do that," Silas said in surprise, reacting to the change of scenery around him.
"Ok. Let\'s kick things up a notch," Silas said, and immediately, he found himself standing in the wilderness with a massive sandstorm rushing towards him.
"Cool but take away the sandstorm."
Immediately, the sandstorm cleared out and disappeared like it was never there.
Seeing this, Silas felt like he became a godly figure.
He took a couple of deep breaths to calm himself down and when he was done, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Hehe.. The breath of the world is about to change as I\'m about to raise a storm."
"LUNAR," Silas called out and a beautiful South Korean lady dressed in tight fitting trainers that could cause the mythical nose bleed appeared beside him, almost scaring him.
"LUNAR?," Silas asked in surprise and suspicion.
{Yes, master,} The lady replied.
Finally confirming that the lady that mysteriously appeared beside him is LUNAR, Silas finally calmed and let out a sigh of relief.
"Wait, why did you call me master and what\'s with this form of yours," Silas asked.
He has had LUNAR for more than a month now and never for once has he heard her call him master and the figure she took on was even more shocking.
{From your browser history and the information obtained after the Pod did the brain scan on you, I saw that this is your ideal lady type and figure.
Also, I noticed that young men like to have female servant and be called master by them.}
{Should I change the character and stop calling you master?}
"Ahem.. I didn\'t say that. Do as you wish," Silas replied with a gentle cough and looked away, with a shade of red on his face.
Silas could swear that he heard LUNAR and the System tsking.
Silas decided to change the topic and ask the question that actually made him call LUNAR.
"LUNAR, how does the Gear and Pod switch between AR and VR?"
{The devices does that automatically. It can switch between the two modes depending on the user\'s demand or the application being run at the moment.}
"That\'s convenient," Silas said and nodded.
"LUNAR, I want you to create the VR version of each top games in the market. Can you do that?" Silas asked with a raised brow.
{It will be done.}
"Yes," Silas said as he bumped his fist in the air, in happiness. His biggest fear was that LUNAR might not be able to create something like that, but it seems he was underestimating her a bit too much.
"There\'s nothing else to do here, let\'s log out." With that thought, Silas saw himself awake and the Pod opened.
Silas climbed out of the Pod and it closed automatically and made a beep.
Silas currently has no use for the Gear and Pod. Yes, he could use the Pod to enter the Domain and start training himself, but he wasn\'t too keen on it at the moment.
After coming out of the Pod, Silas accessed his body after coming out of the Pod but he found nothing wrong.
He didn\'t even feel like he did anything mentally tasking. Actually, he felt like he just woke up from sleep.
\'Ahh... What a nice feeling. Hahaha.... I\'m really going to be the first person on Earth to play an actual VR games. What a bliss.\'
