Chapter 55: Chapter 55 – Jenny and the Dreamer
By now, Nick had gotten pretty good at working with the Dreamer, and working with it no longer required special preparations.
While Nick was working with the Dreamer, Wyntor was telling Jenny everything relevant about Dark Dream, her future workplace.
From what Wyntor told her, their company was named Dark Dream due to their first Specter, the Dreamer.
When Nick had captured the Specter, he needed to brave the darkness and the Dreamer.
So, Wyntor had come up with the name Dark Dream.
When Jenny heard about how Nick had captured the Dreamer, her respect for him had grown even more.
Jenny had already respected Nick, but it was still difficult to feel true respect for someone who was still a teenager.
Naturally, Jenny also knew how impressive it was to fall under the Nightmare's influence so many times.
The more often it happened in a short timeframe, the more brutal the visions became.
Eight hours later, Nick walked out of the Containment Unit as he yawned a bit.
Even though he had just slept for eight hours, he felt very exhausted and tired.
The first thing Nick did after coming out of the Containment Unit was to check on the amount of Zephyx he had produced.
'Still seven grams. Except for that one change two weeks ago, nothing else changed. It's still seven grams,' Nick thought as he rubbed his chin in thought.
'With Jenny, I should be able to glean some more information.' nOVe/lb)In
Nick looked around and quickly found Jenny.
Right now, Pator was showing her a couple of things in the warehouse.
"Hey, Jenny," Nick shouted as he came closer.
Pator and Jenny turned to Nick.
"Good work today, Nick," Pator said with a friendly smile.
"Welcome back, sir," Jenny said with a bit of nervousness.
"Sir?" Nick repeated with a chuckle. "Just call me Nick."
Jenny seemed a bit unsure. "Sure thing... Nick," she said with a bit of discomfort.
Nick just nodded with a smile. "Jenny, do you have somewhere to be in the next eight hours?"
"No," Jenny answered.
Nick nodded. "Today is your first day, but if you feel up to it, you can work with the Dreamer right now."
Nick didn't care that Pator was present. By now, Pator was also under an NDA, and he had already heard a lot about Dark Dream's secrets.
Jenny looked with a bit of excitement at Nick. "This means I would also get my first payment, right?"
"Sure. That's not an issue," Nick said.
"Then, I would like to work with the Dreamer right now," Jenny said. "Although, I need to inform my partner at home first. She hasn't heard from me the entire day, and she will be very worried if I stay until deep into the night."
"Pator can do that," Nick said before turning to Pator. "Right?"
"Naturally," Pator said with a smile. "I'll deal with it after visiting Horua again."
"Thanks, Pator," Nick said. "If everything goes as planned, I can take over in about an hour or so."
"Sure thing, Nick," Pator said before turning to Jenny. "Where's your home?"
Jenny gave Pator instructions on what to say and where to go, and Pator quickly left the building.
The next moment, Nick smiled at Jenny. "Then, let's go."
Jenny nodded and followed after Nick.
Both of them looked to be calm, but in truth, both of them were quite nervous.
