"My desire…"

Urk looked down at his fundamentally altered body, whispering.

Hope.

That is also what Midgard put it into words.

I mean, it's on Setuna's side, supporting Setuna, protecting Setuna, helping Setuna. It's about getting in touch with Setsuna and sharing all sorts of emotions with Setsuna. It's just that, nothing more or less.

But wasn't that a hope that could be fulfilled even by the previous body?

That kind of question comes to mind.

"You may wonder if the same is true of a body like the number one body. Sure, there will be aspects to that, but let me promise you that the Wang body will necessarily bring wonderful days to you. You can do things that your body couldn't have done before."

"What I couldn't do with my previous body......?

"Speaking specifically, if there was anything like holding Lord Setsuna with all your might, in the case of the No. 1 body, Lord Setsuna would be crushed to death, but the No. 1 body, that's not possible. The sensory organs, nerve circuits, and somatic control mechanisms of the Wan body calculate the appropriate pressure for the embrace. If your emotions get high and you embrace Lord Setsuna with all your might, you won't accidentally die."

"Is that..."

Following Midgard's explanation, Urk was convinced, recalling his earlier senses. The feeling that surrounded Setuna's hand was not conceivable in the body of the number one or the body of the number one, but it was due to the flexibility of the body itself and the proper force for touching the human being calculated by the body. Just because your body is flexible doesn't mean you can't.

In previous bodies, I often suffered Setuna as a result of thoughtfully embracing Setuna. But those embraces weren't, after all, full of spiritual power. If I held him with all my might, Setuna would have been crushed to death, as Midgard mentioned.

The human flesh is fragile, and no matter how much you've worked out, you can't compare it to the body of a demonic crystal doll.

Thus Urk had to be cautious in his daily life, no, even in combat, in controlling his powers. Especially on the battlefield, you have to be extra cautious because it's something that is showing battle output. In the unlikely event that you ever embrace a human being, starting with Setuna, with that power, you could kill him.

If that happens, you won't be able to repent if you do.

This body that Midgard has newly prepared for Urk doesn't need to worry about that, it seems.

"That's... thank you very much."

"Setuna......"

"It means I don't care how much you hug me from now on, Urk"

"I didn't say that."

Urk tilted his little neck because Setuna said he was puzzled. Midgard says you can hug him. Urk himself intended to do so. Because Urk also wanted to hug Setuna, just as Miliu and Rem would.

Up to now, there's a big part of me that I've been reluctant to do.

Because I didn't want to do anything to hurt Setuna, just in case.

"Can't you?

"No... that's not what I meant"

"So, are you sure?

"Uh... well, think about the time and place,"

"I don't know, I'll take it as an affirmation"

"Ha... go on your own"

"Okay. I'll take it personally."

When I told him, Setuna gave him a somewhat troubled look, but I don't know what his intentions were. However, Urk had realized that he was heartily pleased, and admitted that the flurry of emotions ran through his entire body. I'm happy and happy and I don't accumulate.

Being equipped with emotions has not changed since before. But I'm sure it wasn't my fault that the emotions were getting stronger than ever. The new thinking mechanism than the old surgical transcription mechanism must be honest and articulate emotions.

At that time, Setsuna seemed to notice something.

"Is that...?

"Oh, have you finally noticed"

"... well, you know what?"

Seeing Setuna convince one, I doubt it.

"What is it?

"Well, what's wrong?"

I thought it was weird from the start.

"Weird? Am I?

"Yeah."

"Am I weird...?

To Urk, it's like I don't understand what he's saying, and I can't imagine. What makes it weird? Setsuna tells me with a smile.

"The look on your face."

"Emoticons..."

"It is. The Wan body is the final evolutionary form of the status quo that has been created as a design idea to bring it closer to man. The evolution has finally earned a change in expression."

"Emotional changes…"

"That's right, Urk. Your face is changing dramatically now."

That said, Midgard walked away from the side of the regulator. Looking behind him, Urk touches his own face. The sensation of the face transmitted from the fingertips was also decidedly different from the previous body, soft and tense. I guess that's also due to artificial skin, pseudomuscular, and divine sperm alloys, but I felt weird after doing so. It's like I'm no longer myself, that feeling.

But I guess that's something to be happy about.

The expression.

The expression on the face is said to be a mirror that reflects emotions.

Setuna, Pharia, and Miliu. Humans have it. Demon Crystal Doll Urk doesn't have it. Naturally. Faces that are just covered in robust armor can't be changed by emotions, etc.

But if it's the Wan body.

If it's not robust armor, but a face covered in armor of new materials that combines muscle and skin, and toughness and flexibility, then why not?

"Mr. Midgard, you're a genius."

When Setuna just leaked her exclamation, the overhead gods made a positive statement.

"Exactly, the use of the Demon King. Comrade Midgard humbles himself, but it is only with his talent that he has done so beautifully, whether it be a poor body or a wanton body."

"And with the seeping effort of Midgard's blood, I'm pretty sure our knowledge has borne fruit!

"Master Midgard was able to lend us much wisdom. It must be because Midgard was able to make knowledge that could not be handled by human beings."

"It's not much of a compliment."

With the praise of the gods, I suppose. Midgard came back here with a bitter smile. I have a big mirror in my hand.

And Midgard showed the mirror up in front of Urk.

I don't know.

What was reflected in that mirror, irrespective of its appearance, which was the upper body of Urk and was not similar to the familiar body of the No. 3, had to be surprised.

You're amazed at yourself in the mirror. That is, there is an expression and the face moves delicately according to the emotions. Eyes, eyelids, eyebrows, mouth, everything moves according to one's emotions, drawing a variety of expressions.

Seeing such a change in expression, Urk was just confused.

Is the change that Midgard has brought about something that will dramatically change even Urk's values? I come to think and be sure of that. Because until now, I have accepted that it is a doll and have considered it as a criterion. In many ways.

That changes.

I had a feeling about that.
