The Artificially Genius Doctor
Preparation of the Crystal Activation Ritual

A feeling of intervening fear enveloped the laboratory. In the dim light, various tools and materials were displayed on a large table. Tanti let out a deep sigh, observing the colorful liquid inside the soft-shimmering glass bottles, creating a mystical aura around the table.

Tanto, with his hands trembling slightly, opened an old notebook they found with the AI machine. "We need to do everything exactly" he said, eyes round checking each instruction.

Tanti nodded, "I know. A small mistake can be fatal."

The AI machine, with its quiet and robotic sound, gives instructions through the speaker, "Put the crystal in the center of the table, surrounded by four essential liquids."

Tanto held the crystal with both hands, feeling its piercing coldness. Carefully, he placed it in the middle of the table. "This is the first step" he said slowly.

Tanti took out four bottles filled with liquid and began to arrange them around the crystal. Every movement carried out with precision, his eyes were fully concentrated.

After they finished, the two of them stepped back, staring at the crystal that was now surrounded by the glowing liquid.

Wait for a breath, "What's the next step?"

The AI machine replied, "Sing the mantra written on page 23 of the notebook."

Tanto opened the notebook on the page shown, then began to read it slowly. However, before he could sing it, he turned to Tanti. "You remember that lullaby you used to sing? It felt, his tone was suitable for this spell."

Tanti smiled faintly, recalling the memories of their childhood. "Yes, I remember. All right, let's try."

In a soft and flowing tone, the two began to sing the mantra with the melody of their childhood lullaby. The crystal in the center of the table started to glow brighter, and the surrounding liquid churned slowly.

When the spell is finished, there is silence. Tanti and Tanto looked at each other, hoping for a sign that the ritual was working.

After what felt like an hour, the AI machine finally spoke, "Ritual is not finished. There's one last step you have to do together."

The two of them took a deep breath, preparing themselves for whatever was to come next. Despite the uncertainty, they both know that each other is the greatest power they have to protect their families.

The AI machine, with its deep and melodious voice, began to compensate for Tanti as she recited the spell. His voice created a resonance that combined with Tanti's voice, giving rise to vibrations that propagated throughout the room. All the surfaces in the laboratory started flickering, as if reacting to the hypnotic harmony they created.

Tanto, standing beside the table, held the notebook tightly. "Hold, Tanti," he said in a soft but feisty voice. He knew that this ritual required the full concentration of his sister.

The crystal in the center of the table now shimmered with different colors. Each time Tanti uttered a word from the spell, the crystal colors alternated, creating a stunning light show.

The air around them began to move by itself, giving rise to a light breeze that twirled the pages of the notebook, although Tanto tried his hardest to hold it. The lights on their table began to flicker, and strange rustling sounds rang out from every corner of the room.

Tanti's eyes glittered with determination. Each of his incantations was spoken clearly and powerfully. However, his face began to pale, and a sweat splashed down his forehead.

"Wait, are you okay?" Tanto asked worriedly.

Without distracting her, Tanti nodded weakly. "I'm doing fine. We have to finish this."

Tanto felt a sense of worry stirring himself. "Can I help?" ask him on AI machines.

The AI machine replies, "Tanto, join Tanti. Put your hands together and continue the ritual together."

Without hesitation, Tanto approached his sister and fused his hands with Tanti. The moment their hands touched, a surge of energy appeared, and Tanti could feel a new power filling her body.

With a chimeing sound, they continued the spell. The crystal now glows brightly, creating a column of light that penetrates into the laboratory ceiling. The room rumbled with energy.

The moment the last word was spoken, the crystal stopped glowing. The light in the laboratory returned to normal, and the light wind that had previously been blowing had now subsided.

The two looked at each other, eyes sparkling with a mixture of relief and awe. "We did it" whispered Tanto, feeling his heart rate begin to calm down.

I smiled tired. "Yes, we do it together."

The two of them sat on the floor, taking a deep breath, realizing how important the ritual they had just performed was. And even though they have completed one challenge, both know that their adventure is still long.

Darkened.

The two brothers were shocked when the lights suddenly went out and only the soft light from the crystal illuminated the room. As if time paused for a moment, Tanti and Tanto stared at each other, figuring out what was happening.

Tanto felt his breath held. "Why are the lights off? What's wrong?"

Tanti shook her head, trying to gather her thoughts. "Eitherway. Everything went well before." His voice trembled, reflecting the worry he felt.

The AI machines, which had previously been their guides in a melodious and calm voice, were now silent a thousand languages. Darkness makes every sound of – like the sound of breath and the heartbeat of – sound so clear.

"We have to check the power source" Tanto said, trying to stay calm. "There may be a short circuit or other problems."

Tanti nodded, even though she felt unsure. "Come on. We have to hurry. Who knows there's a time limit for this ritual."

With careful steps, they moved towards the laboratory door, holding on to the table to find their way in the darkness. The sound of their footsteps echoed in the quiet room.

When Tanto reached the door and tried to open it, he felt an obstacle. "Lock... Why is this door locked?" he said with frustration.

Tanti approached, trying to help her brother. "No way! Who locked it?"

The two worked together, trying to open the door, but their efforts were in vain. They're trapped.

In desperation, Tanti grabs the crystal, hoping to get a clue or help. The crystal shimmered with a soft blue light, creating glare in their eyes. "There's something strange about this crystal" Tanti murmured.

Tanto approached his sister and examined the crystal. "It looks like this crystal is reacting to something. Maybe an AI machine?"

However, the AI engine remained silent. Without guidance, they feel lost. But Tanto, with his curiosity, approached the machine and began to inspect it.

"Sister, what are you doing?" ask Tanti with worry.

Tanto replied, "Try to revive her. There may be a backup resource."

After a few minutes of effort, a beep was heard and the AI engine was back on with a green light. "System is restarted," the voice of the AI engine announced.

The two brothers cheered happily. "What's going on?" ask Tanti.

The AI engine explained, "There was a disruption to the main power source. I've diverted it to a backup resource. However, the operating time is limited."

Tanti and Tanto exchanged a glance. "We must complete this ritual as soon as possible" Tanto said with determination.

With the help of AI machines, they continue the ritual. This time, with greater confidence, supported by technology and courage of their hearts. The darkness that had scared them now became a witness to their success in fighting against the odds.
