Chapter 38:
The Quantum Reactor
"Good day everyone, and welcome to the CNA stories. This is fuji yuuki, bringing you a story now that you might want to hear. In this segment, we bring beth duntrio as our guest, the wife of the CEO and president of the storm inc. Which is a rising company in the philippines for both technology and research, and also training for all new mutants." Fuji said as beth waves her hand at the camera
"Good day as well miss fuji, and the world, if you are watching this." Beth said in her best formal attire
"Its now been 4 years since the big war between the earth allied forces and the council, how is everything holding up?" Fuji said
"Well, everythings been great so far, even though there may be some ups and downs sometimes. Like our international expansion for training new mutants, moon and mars expansions, and more!" Beth said
"I see. Wait, did you say mars expansion?" Fuji said
"Yes. It will be officially announced by tonight, though I thought I would steal the spotlight now." Beth said with a smile
"Haha.. for someone who just had 2 children, you still look yound and sexy." Fuji said
"Yeah, its been tough really. Being the main wife of the hero of earth, the wise sage of the octoguys, the image of time magazine last year, and the president of a company. There are even times that im glad my life turned out like this for the better." Beth said
"What do you mean? And do you mean about being the main wife thing?" Fuji said
"Yes. As his main wife, im also the leader of the elements, or the other wives. I wont say that its always been easy, but were a decent team altogether." Beth said
"Arent you frustrated or something? Being in a harem I mean." Fuji said
"I have been asked these questions about many times now, and my answer will always be the same. I wont lie that I have been frustrated sometimes, but im currently happy with my life right now, even though a bit busy sometimes. In the end, its all worth it." Beth said
"But isnt mr johnny storm a catholic, like all other citizens in the philippines?" Fuji said
"Yes, though not that much anymore, maybe ever since the event that has changed his life forever. And its true also that many of his devote countrymen hate him for that, but he doesnt mind at all, unless maybe something else will happen to any of his family members. He even said one time in a local interview last year, that whoever messes with my family will also have theirs suffer too. Socially, financially, and physically if possible." Beth said
"Whoa, now thats extreme dont you think?" Fuji said
"I also think so, but he also said that he has to do something like that just to have some people behave themselves, or else more harm will be done. And all of his family, including us, never want any of that to happen to us." Beth said
"Im sure that there wont be anyone like that--" fuji said before she was cut off
"This is off the record, but something already happened. As one family, john wanted all his children to go to the same school, and we agreed only to the school of our choosing. The result was a bit disappointing actually, cause some other children bullied our children, cause of what their parents all were saying to their children." Beth said
"And what happened then? Also, why are you telling all this now?" Fuji said
"As a result, john himself called a PTA meeting at that very school, and was so angry at all the parents that he actually struck lightning towards the sky which made a hole on the school gymnasium. Also, he put some logic to those parents that majority werent able to speak back at all! That is all after he calmed down that is. And I just figured that I would say this here for future references for all parents who are watching, and cause im still angry at those kind of parents." Beth said
"I see. So what did he really say that time?" Fuji said
"He said to control what you say to your children, specially when it comes to his family. What they say about religion is theirs to say, but when that will impact his family, then we have a major problem. As the intelligent species on our planet, we have thr capability to choose what we want to do or say. But as a part of nature, all humans are not excempted towards their animal instincts. Which means that he himself chose to have the harem, both as a part of natural instinct and as an intelligent species. Also, did you even hear in any scripture that to marry multiple women isnt allowed? Where some only forbids adultery, which he didnt do in the first place, which is also true. I mean, religion isnt even a part of nature! And that he wont say to change the education system of the country cause of that, but he will report the incident to the president himself, to the education department, and the police." Beth said
"Whoa, I definitely wont comment about his decision over the matter, but what happened to the children after that?" Fuji said
"We just had them transfer schools, very simple. But this time, to his alma matter." Beth said
"Also, why did he really choose to marry all 6 of you?" Fuji said
"Of course, it wasnt an easy decision. But even though hes like that, hes a bit indecisive. So he said one time, why do I have to be complex about this? When the answer is really easy! So he thought about the factors that will make his family happy: he already has the power, he already has the physique and health, and he already have the money to make a family for 6 wives. Thus, he married us all through civil marriage from each of our countries." Beth said
"And since john is a catholic, even maybe until now, so what kind of god does he worship now? And does the girls also worship this god?" Fuji said
"Actually, hes not that entirely of a catholic now, ever since he met and saw the energy beings. I asked him one time about it, and he said he doesnt worship gods, he respect them even though he treats the universe as god. And no, the girls and I dont worship any god either." Beth said
"What do you mean by the universe as god?" Fuji said
"Did you know that the universe is made up of atoms and energy? Though only a small percent of the universe is made out of atoms, thus this kind of energy is what john figures out to be god. I mean, the question has always been asked since ancient times right? If god made everything, then who or what made god? Sorry but not sorry, since we are not really religious people ourselves." Beth said with a smile
"Hmm.. Anyways, do you also manage the company in some way?" Fuji said
"Yes, in fact, each of the girls all manage a part of the company. Frey manages the data center, claire manages the research center, alex is in HR, aya manages the companys finances, silk manages the cadets and their training, while I manage thr overall operations of the company as johns right hand." Beth said
"Wow! And john does what exactly? While all of his wives are so busy with their assigned work." Fuji said
"He manages the overall operations of the company, both local and abroad. I mean, hes the CEO after all, so the final word goes to him for approval." Beth said
"I see. Does the company also take a stance in addressing climate change?" Fuji said
"Yes! In fact, we even developed a way or machine to recycle everything all at once, and the product of it would be another kind of metal which is mainly used in space construction. Which is also johns idea, as well as the energy recycler device, in which is a small device literally recycles energy. He even said one time: why does everyone go for complex solutions where there is the easy way?" Beth said
"And in regards to research and development, what kind of research does the company do?" Fuji said
"We research many stuff, from theoretical to practical. Like the further study of atoms, next gen weapons research, and more. Of course the engineering team also makes prototypes of many kinds of next gen tech, like the magnetic boots, the new helmet brain interface, and more!" Beth said
"Wow! So what does this helmet brain interface do?" Fuji said
"Its a helmet which reads your brains thought patterns to make a virtual platform for many interfaces. This helmet can be used in many fields, including virtual reality and communications, where you wont be needing any surgery to install the brain interface that the aliens use." Beth said
"So that the aliens can also use it perhaps?" Fuji said
"If they want to, yes. Although commercial manufacture for it would still be ways away, its mainly for military use for now, including all other engineering innovations. But if I have to say about a release date for commercial use of those helmets, it would be after 2 or 4 years later." Beth said as the staff signals for the time
"Whoa, cant wait for the official commercial release of that helmet. Anyways, thats all for this segment, and im very happy to have you for today mrs storm. Thank you very much." Fuji said as she stood to shake beths hand
"The pleasure is all mine miss fuji." Beth said
