SIMULATION
YES OR NO

Sandra returned to the room where she was doing simulated combat training. Sandra assures Tony that he's okay.

"OKAY. You need to focus. This physical exercise is deliberately done so that when you are in a robot simulation later, you feel like the robot is you. So you're more careful with any kind of attack than lethal weapons that might damage your robot's function. Youunderstand?" tony and Sandra nodded.

"Remember, your focus and reflexes must be fast, but you are also required not to be rash in making decisions. You've felt the sting, haven't you? So I guess you don't want to feel it anymore. Right?" tony asked pointing at him, and Sandra nodded to justify.

"I'll try. I believe I can pass this test" he replied steadily and Tony smiled proudly.

Tony ordered the simulation procedure to Eco. Sandra was again shot by 10 metal-shaped target boards with a bright red light from one part of the body.

"Climation begins. In a countdown. 5 ... 4 ... 3 ...."

"Okay, I can" Sandra said, shaking both hands for the shot with her eyes fixed on the target board.

"2 ... 1! Go!"

Tony's eyes widened. Sandra's movement was very agile this time. He was asked to avoid all the shots fired at him, as if he were being surrounded in enemy territory.

Sandra ran quickly, then slid on the floor by dropping herself. Sandra hid behind a box that protected her and did not move.

All of the robots' red beams aimed their shots at the box, but as it turned out, the clear box held back the light so that it did not penetrate and hit Sandra's body.

Five minutes Sandra was in that position and Tony looked serious watching her move.

THE TET!

"Simulation defense complete. Congratulations, Otka Oskova. You managed to survive" said Eco who surprised Sandra.

"Haha! Wow, you're great! Easy, isn't it?" tony said with laughter, praise and applause as he walked closer.

"Yes, I just got it. So ... I was just asked to stay? It is fitting that I am not given any weapons to fight. Shit, I was rash at the beginning," he replied, looking upset.

"That's why it's not easy being a user, but you're pretty good as a beginner. Well, since our time is cramped, we're back to learning how to shoot. This time, aim for the right, don't be dumb. The training should have been quite exciting for you" said Tony looks proud of his protege.

"okay!" sandra replied with a smile.

Sandra again grasped the laser rifle with a purple beam to aim and attack the target.

"In the countdown. 3 ... 2 ... 1. Go!"

The metal board moved back nimbly. Sandra sharpened her eyes and seemed focused with her shot.

This time, the blonde woman managed to press the trigger to shoot the laser beam.

SHU!

BIB! BIB! BIB!

One by one, the metal targets stopped moving once the purple laser hit and made a hole in his body.

Tony's smile grew because Sandra looked focused and could compensate for the weight of the weapon.

On the other side. User control room, District 9.

"Hem, the development is very rapid. Otka Oskova is great. He has potential" Vice President Lala said in awe from the soundless surveillance footage.

"Well, we have to get ready to get Vermendis Vemo into the Great Ruler. Truly, I will not release my supervision from him," said Commander Ego.

"I think Vemo can give us new knowledge" Commander Akira said.

"What knowledge?" timpal Ego with wrinkled forehead.

"Yes, you're right, Commander Akira. Hem, what if ... we let Vemo in without having to wait for Otka to finish training? We have to get that tattooed man to reveal all his hidden secrets. For the safety of the Great Ruler" said General Matteo.

Vice President Lala glanced at President Roman who that day participated in overseeing the training of all prospective users.

"We need to negotiate this first. Schedule, tomorrow we'll have a meeting on this. Let Otka and Tony train, don't push them away" the president said.

"Yes, sir," answered everyone in unison.

Eco who served in the room immediately did the scheduling and sent invitations to all officials who entered the list.

That day, Sandra practiced gun recognition with Tony until the night. And, the rehearsal ends at dinner.

"Tired?" tony looked at Sandra whose face and hair were already soaked in sweat.

"You can see the honesty of my face, Captain Tony," Sandra replied with a lethargic face.

Tony chuckles. The handsome man drove Sandra back to her room. Captain does not want to make his students more tired because tomorrow still have to do advanced training. Tony went back to his house.

The next day, invited officials gathered to discuss about passing Vermendis Vemo to the Great Ruler.

However, the results of the meeting turned out to be pro-cons. Many agreed with Matteo's proposal, but others opposed it.

For those who resisted, Vemo was considered unfit to stay and become a resident of the Great Ruler. Vemo is a criminal for manipulating barcodes.

"Therefore, before any other person or enemy country takes advantage of him, we must secure Vemo. He can be a valuable asset of the Great Ruler with close supervision" Matteo said.

"Are you sure you can control it?" ask Mayor Distik 1—Mayor Kyel—from the bench where he sat opposite Matteo.

"Yes, of course. Especially with Otka Oskova, Vemo will definitely comply. I've read reports about him, and his weakness is Otka. We use Otka to control Vemo. Simple," replied Matteo casually.

The officials again whispered to each other like trying to equalize opinions. President Roman, Ego, and Akira were seen silent not to comment, such as waiting and listening to the results of the meeting.

"If you wait for Otka to officially become a User, Vemo will instead be free in the Great Ruler. We can't control it, because it's equal to other citizens' rights, and that's even more dangerous. So, before Otka mentioned the man's name as one of the gifts because he volunteered for the A-level robot User, we first. We lock him in strict supervision and full control until Otka is declared official" Matteo said.

"Hows it? Vote done?" asked Vice President Lala and the men finally nodded.

An object shaped like a shell appeared on the table in front of the seated officials.

The combatants were half-opened and the officials' hands entered into a cave-like object made of iron. Lala looked at everyone who was now looking at her.

"Appoint as 'Yes' which means you agree that Vemo will enter the Great Ruler tomorrow. While the middle finger as 'No' which means Vemo remained in District 10 until eventually Otka asked his name as the person who will be brought into the Great Ruler. The difference is, tomorrow is a shortcut for Vemo by entering early without Otka having to ask. In essence, Vemo will still enter the Great Ruler, just wait for the time" Lala said and everyone nodded in understanding.

The officials were seen ready when the cave-like shell had been lit by white lights. Lala gave the code with a nod of the head.

It seems some officials have finished voting. They pulled a hand from the cave and it went back into the table.

"Eco, accumulate and announce the results of the vote," Pinta Lala.

"Vote results are calculated," said Eco who made everyone's face tense instantly. "Vote results from 100 officials present, accumulated, 80 people voted 'Yes', and 20 people voted 'No'. Conclusion, 'Yes' won."

Everyone who was seen voting for 'Yes' applauded, while the faces were disappointed in some of the officials who seemed to choose 'No' could not be covered.

"Alright, it's been set. Vermendis Vemo is under intense surveillance throughout the Great Ruler Department. In this case, I appointed the Ego Commander to bring Vemo into the Great Ruler," said President Roman pointing at the black man, and the Commander nodded readily.

Matteo's smile rose even though it was just a glance. I don't know what he planned, but it looks like the young General was so satisfied with the results of the vote that morning.
