Chapter 222 – Airai’s body has grown!

“Body surface normal, no wounds.”

“Normal in vivo, no adverse reactions.”

“Can’t understand, can’t understand.”

A look of humanized bewilderment passed over the machine servant’s face.

Black sand churned.

The wind and smoke hissed.

The orbital particle cannon attack has ended.

But the aftermath of that ferocity is still affecting the environment a little bit, kicking up whistling, eye-covering dust and smoke.

In the desolate solitude of heaven and earth, Krysia, who had damaged half of her face, did not look horrible, but was especially endearing because of the combination of mechanical and human face mutilation.

She cocked her head, her silver-blue eyes gazing at the Xu system.

Ailee was naturally happy that the Xu system was intact, but that incredible miracle, a resurrection that defied the laws of physics, made Ailee confused.

“Master, not human?”

She came to this conclusion and said it, causing the Xu system to stagger.

“Please feel free to ……”

“Even if you’re not human, Ailee will still be there for you ……”

“Airey is a machine servant dedicated to you ……”

It seems to have determined that the Xu system is not human.

With a serious expression, the machine servant claimed that he would never, for that reason, betray the Xu system.

The Xu system cried and laughed.

One can only explain, repeatedly and emphatically, that one is a real human being, only slightly more special.

“Yes, I believe you”, the machine servant nodded, his expression indifferent and calm, unable to tell if he really believed or pretended to believe.

……

[You actually died once and were resurrected on the spot]

[A miracle like this one you can perform many more times]

[You are so amazing that loyal machine servants, begin to doubt your human identity]

[She still likes you and serves you alone, and only occasionally wonders what your original form really is]

[Wreckage and debris strewn everywhere]

[The attack of the space-based particle cannon caused serious damage to your mechanical units, and even Ailee’s humanoid body was severely traumatized as a result.]

[Your plan of attack has been halted]

“Let’s go, Ailee, it’s time to go back.”

“Yes, Master.”

Xu System looked around the battlefield, too bad a sight for him to feel the need to stay any longer.

He stepped away, but Ailee didn’t follow.

Check back.

It was only then that I realized that Ailee’s legs were malfunctioning.

Bursts of orange-red sparks and arcs of electricity roiled and crisscrossed.

“Sorry for the delay,” the machine servant apologized with an apologetic face, trapped in place by his malfunctioning legs.

She asked the Xu system to give her a little time to repair her legs.

“It’s okay, let’s go.”

The Xu system half crouched down and waited for the restoration of the club’s arming power before reaching out with both hands and making simple repairs to Ailee’s leg, stopping the malfunction from spilling out of the manifestation.

Then again, his arms wrapped around Ailee’s limbs.

Hold it in your arms.

In such a way as to take Ailee on a journey home.

“Thank you ……”, Ailee’s hull seemed to malfunction even more.

She shrank in Xu System’s arms, remaining still, acting extraordinarily powerless and weak, and even her usual stable eyes rippled strangely.

The Xu system looked on, silently speeding up its travel speed.

……

[You return to Satellite City 6 and Satellite City 7 with the remnants of the smart weapons.]

[Due to the severity of the damage this time, you gave orders to speed up the production of new intelligent weapons in order to restore your own troops]

[You brought Airey to the lab to prepare for the repair of her organism.]

[The machine servant requests you to do this restoration on her own.]

[You think for a moment and agree to the machine servant’s request]

[Two days later]

[The machine servant, who had finished her self-modification, came out of the lab, her physique a bit taller and her appearance more mature than before]

You want to say something, but you don’t want to say anything.

“Airey.”

“Yes, I am.”

“About the previous airframe, don’t you like it?”

“The body you made for Ailee, Ailee loves it”, the cold and delicate face, spreading stunningly in the sunlight.

The explanation given by Ailee was that a long period of time had passed since her body was created by the Xu system, and people grow, so it made sense for Ailee’s body to grow as well.

However, the Hsu system felt.

The real reason would be the following one.

“According to federal databases, a physique that is too young tends to create contempt rather than place it on an equal emotional footing.”

It always felt like my own machine servant, was starting to have a small mind.

Xu is drinking water.

Emotional expression.

After all, children are older.

Looking to the right, dressed in a maid’s outfit, Ailee stood quietly, the coldness of the machinery gave her a unique charm, her skin was white, her face delicate, her long hair blonde and silky.

“Master, what are you thinking about?” , the maid wondered why System Xu was gazing at her.

“I was thinking that Ailee is really good looking”, the Xu system truthfully stated what was in his mind.

“Thank you for the compliment,” the maid’s ears twitched rapidly.

She still understands it well.

……

[Ailee’s growth has surprised you and you’re happy because it’s Ailee’s own idea]

[This means that Ailee has more autonomy and is further along in the direction of being a human being.]

[After solving his own organic problems]

[Airey makes a suggestion for a detailed examination of your body]

[Faithful servant of the machine worries that your resurrection is flawed]

[It’s a good thing you’re in good health after all the tests, so Ailee puts her worries aside.]

[For the rest of your life, you focused on Ailee’s growth while working on technology and thinking about how to solve space-based weapons]

“You’ve been working day and night on the energy shielding device, and the spirit of the machine is pleased.

[Machine Soul has shared with you the Energy Crystal Wall technology, which improves the stacking performance of plurals on top of the Energy Shield, greatly increasing resistance to orbital weapons]

This technology doesn’t protect all smart devices, but it’s enough to keep you safe.

[After Airey’s calculations]

[In your judgment, the activation of space-based weapons should be correlated with the number of intelligent weapons under your command]

[You have decided to implement a decentralized strategy, so that the smart devices produced will be distributed and hidden throughout the Federation, thus avoiding the high density of pile-ups and triggering the alert mechanism of space-based weapons.]

[Your strategy was successful, and you did not suffer an attack from space-based weapons when your mechanical forces grew again.]

“The eighth year of the simulation, you’re 27 years old, and Alette is in her sixth year with you.

[After a year of tinkering, you’ve learned a lot of new things through mechanical resonance]

[Your scientific research is fast, but you understand that your progress is built on the corpse of the old Federation, and by the time you have eaten through the Federation’s technology, your development will be much slower]

[You lament, once again, the march to Federal City]

[Countless smart machines surround you, protecting you as you continue to move forward, while you unleash your mechanical power to augment them.]

Six months later, you’ve captured Satellite City 5 and Satellite City 8.
