"We've got some system going on in the translation thing, got someone from otherworld linguistic pulled to our side," Eugene reported their progress as Zein took a seat on his now permanent swivel chair in the lab. It was the closest one to the glass window, where he could conveniently look at the shard.
Over time, Zein had experimented on communicating with the shard without direct touch. Expanding his consciousness to the pulsing crystal. So far, he managed to at least tell it to stop rejecting the researchers' presence. He tried sending simple thought like greetings through the glass window.
Just like now. The shard would send a different mana wave with every different response, and the researcher would capture it to be analyzed. So Zein's role as of right now was like a conversation mate with this shard.
