Haroon

'Duel Matters'

The race was only half a day after I woke up.

“Mmmm.”

Harun, who was driving the Mana Flow, opens his eyes as he hears the groaning of the battle. A blindingly intense glare flashes for a moment before returning to normal. Harun sees the lips of a dry duel open slightly, and goes to his side.

“Fight, are you awake? ”

“Who, who? ”

“I am Harun. ”

“You're the commander. Then why are you so blind? Ow! My face! What happened to my face? ”

The competing halves scream at the pain caused by the regeneration process.

Then Harun realized that he could see all things in a place where there was no light. But now I can't afford to think about it.

“Don't you remember? When the Volkaworm's bodily fluids were covered, one side of his face melted and he summoned a spirit to make a first aid action. Then I came here and applied the potion and fed it. Potions are the reason you feel pain on your face. ”

Pain doesn't go away with potions. I was well aware of the fight.

“Well, I see. ”

The fight seemed to finally understand how it happened. By the way, Harun took out a Luminescent Ore for him, confirming that he could see everything in the darkness without any light.

“Where is... here, commander?" ”

“In an emergency, I summoned the spirit of the earth and fled. I'm hurt, too. ”

He briefly explained that although he was a member of the alliance, he didn't have to talk about everything.

“Thank you, commander. Thanks to you, I was able to live. ”

The struggle that took place was a sincere thank you. Even though there must still be tremendous pain to regenerate facial tissues, it is an uncomfortable body.

Harun did not hold back. It was true that he cared quite a bit. I thought it was too much for users who didn't care if they died.

“We were both lucky. ”

Harun suddenly thought of the moment when Najjik sighed and was in a hurry. Users don't care much about dying. That is, of course, compared to NPCs. In fact, the higher the user, the 20% stat down, the more deeply concerned they are. But it's not enough to say hello.

“I heard that the estramorwn can resurrect after death. You don't have to be so polite. ”

You shake your head vigorously against Harun's words.

“No, I am a stranger, but unlike other estramorwn. If you die here, you die in real life. ”

What are you talking about? ’

Harun opened his eyes wide because he couldn't understand a word.

“What's the matter? ”

You answered Harun's question with a somewhat embarrassing face.

“Yes, it's a long story. The commander has a story he doesn't understand. ”

I was even more curious to say that.

“We have a lot of time, so let's talk slowly. I need to eat something first. ”

Thinking about it, I was hungry. I don't know how much time has passed, but I heard a commotion in my stomach because I didn't have anything to eat. Harun finds a simple point in the subspace. Grain Powder. I didn't need to summon Nia because I had a sack of water just in case. The grain powder was mixed with water and diluted. The proper meal was about to go to the ground.

“Thank you. Thank you very much. ”

I ate quite a lot of battles. His face became more comfortable as he sat comfortably down. Even though it's an advanced healing potion, he's still in a lot of pain. After I woke up, I continued to be arrogant.

I was curious about what was going on out there, but the fight was about to get better, so I needed to rest a little more. I was still in a lot of pain, and there were many areas to heal, and I took the medicine out of my backpack that I was fighting and took care of the wound quietly.

Harun stretched out the squad from his backpack and looked quite accustomed to wearing bandages without hesitation on the area melted by his body heat.

“I owe you one. ”

“We're allies. You don't have to say that. But you're good for a stranger. I heard from my crew that even the most skilled foreigners have only just entered Expert. ”

I said it like I heard it, but it's true. Super-rankers ranked in the top 50 by their skills have just become beginner Experts or Four-Circle Wizards. Of course, the existence of the Expert Intermediate Duel was inevitable. Even bugs were not exaggerated.

The duel, which made me hesitate for a moment, opened my mouth.

“Yes, I have a story. I was actually a beta tester. ”

“Beta tester?”

Beyond was known to have served immediately without beta testing. That's why Harun was surprised.

“Well…… let me put it this way…… I came here before any strangers in the world and tried things out. It was, for example, the initiative of a trust to see if strangers could adapt to the world. ”

“Ah!”

Harun understood and fought.

“About 500 people, myself, entered the world about a year early. Luckily, the gods haven't reset our abilities. In exchange for our efforts, we made a vow not to reveal who we were. ”

I never imagined there would be such people. That number is 500. The story meant that there were 500 more powerful people hiding without revealing their abilities than had been known.

It was an unbelievable story because it was the same user, but it didn't make sense otherwise because the fighting skills were Expert intermediate.

“How many levels are there? ”

“Do you even know the level? Haha! Of course you know that some of the members of the gale mercenaries are foreigners. I'm a level 138 prosecutor. By this point, it is equivalent to the Express Intermediate. I don't know, but the foreigners are probably at the highest level. ”

I felt proud of what I said in the duel.

We started the game a year ago, so maybe we should take that level for granted, but not when we think about the foreigners who came to Beyond. You can climb as fast as the Sword User rank, but since then, the level up speed has become extreme considering the balance with NPCs. If the required EXP per level has doubled before, it will increase five times before and after 80.

“Fantastic. What's the real job? ”

“I was a warrior or a soldier for a knight here. ”

As expected.

“So it's not now. ”

“Yes. He was critically injured and discharged while serving as a Special Forces member of the National Guard. After six months in the National Guard Hospital, he was forced to discharge from the military after being determined that he was unable to return to his unit. Since I couldn't use my lower half properly, I lived a monotonous and free life playing games at home after I got discharged. Then I became Beyond's beta tester because I was involved in a fundamental experiment in the development phase of a project that crossed over to this world, and I was recruited into the guild at the request of my long-lost friend Baltic. ”

It would be, if it weren't for the special forces training as a strong warrior with natural physical conditions and tremendous training, this level up would have been hard. Friends with Baltic, by the way. It was surprising that he was also a Special Forces soldier.

“Is it the USSA?

“Huff! Is that all you know? ”

The contest surprised Harun even more that he knew the USSA existed. Beyond the other games, he was familiar with the fact that NPCs had almost the same intelligence and abilities as him, but he was still so familiar with the world of strangers.

“I know enough. ”

Looking at Harun smiling, the duel overcomes his surprise and nods. I heard a lot about Harun from Baltic. It is said to have open thinking and outstanding abilities in all aspects to be considered an NPC.

“I see. I've heard from Baltran that the touch of the thundering mercenaries may extend to reality." ”

If you know that much, Baltic is not just anyone. What's his identity?

“So, did I mention that fairy tale rates are high, or is there something wrong with the capsule? ”

I quickly understood whether the question was to keep in mind that if you die in a game, you will die in reality.

“Huff! How did you do that? ”

I was surprised as if I were running against Harun's question.

While staring at Harun silently with surprised eyes, you nod helplessly.

“I was really impressed. because I really didn't think I'd have that much detail on the other side. ”

He never imagined that Harun was a stranger like himself. Even though it was so well known, Harun's skill was far beyond himself, so it was a mistake. He was well aware of the fact that he was among the top 500 beta testers. Harun's ability to surpass him gave him confidence that he was NPC.

“How did you end up in the Special Forces? ”

In fact, I was curious. By the looks of it, I was only in my early twenties. As far as he knows, Special Forces are almost forced to gain physical superiority at a young age.

But there was a really unexpected story.

“I was an orphan. ”

It is not uncommon to be an orphan. There were many orphans around. Among the human beings in the Ewa F district who have not found a particular job, it is unusual to have babies and leave them in hospitals. It's because I can't afford to raise a child in a yard where it's hard to live right now.

I don't know why they didn't take a policy such as forced infertility, contraception, or midlife, but most of the children Harun met when he was traveling the old streets were orphans like this.

Now I wonder if the barrier was going to grow population in case it broke, or if it was going to look for a competent person, but the cost that Union paid to raise orphans was unimaginable.

Harun was even more surprised because of the following words.

“Among them, it was a pseudophakic lens that could not be found at all. ”

This means that the contest has just become as old as he is. I was even more surprised when I saw the appearance as at least mid-twenties.

‘Well, I look pretty old myself. ’

Then I was really curious as to when he joined the Special Forces. The duel, when you saw Harun's curious eyes, speaks calmly.

“Haha! It's been a strange day. I'm a person who rarely tells anyone my own story or personal thoughts, and at this point today, I want to tell the commander everything that I haven't told Baltran. ”

The contest opened its mouth like that.

“Since I was a kid, I grew up fast and had an unusually active tendency. And that allowed me to move three dependents. They were a spoiled, annoying child that they couldn't afford. ”

Artificial lenses are usually similar in childhood. Most of them failed to adapt to the dependent family.

“So I grew up in a foster home, and by the time I was 10 years old, my potential had been developed. He scores highest on his test by being superior in fitness, adaptable and aggressive compared to the average person. And as a result, I ended up in a Special Forces training camp at a young age. ”

There were quite a number of children of that age at the Special Forces Training Hall. They were all tested and selected, all with remarkable physical abilities.

I liked a training center that always had to move rather than a competing dependent or foster home. He liked to move quietly rather than sitting in one position and learning something. Stamina training was easy for others to dislike. He demonstrated his skills in areas such as infiltration, infiltration and sniper, as well as shooting, defeating, and fighting.

At the age of 15, he eventually became a Special Forces soldier. At a young age, the Special Forces are a force that prioritizes abilities, so there were many soldiers with such young but remarkable physical abilities.

His main mission was outside the barrier, such as tracking trends in Org and Hark, and he has done an excellent job.

“One day, after a special assignment, I returned to the base and was assigned a special assignment to deal with two Harks who broke through a weakened barrier into the Union, and I was badly injured while doing that. ”

Harun doesn't have to bury the wounded, but he tells you everything he's up against.

“Three of the limbs were broken, and a large portion of the muscles were ruptured. Particularly from spinal nerve damage, the lower torso is paralyzed. It was literally a lightning storm in the dry sky for me. ”

It would be hard to live a normal life in that state for the rest of your life.

“After that injury, what Union did for me was a medal, a few pensions, and a small public apartment in District D. I spent most of my weekly salary in daycare. ”

I lived a blue life at such a young age. Is it really so hard for him to be a Special Forces soldier at such a young age when he's never been a man? I wouldn't have been motivated.

“I couldn't help but think of suicide when I couldn't move properly on my own. ”

“Phew.”

Harun sighs unnoticed because he doesn't seem to be talking about others.

“Still, I couldn't die because of my comforts and the warm encouragement of my friends that I couldn't die for nothing. Baltrang, who knows about disaster, is my friend. The Special Forces Training Hall motivator, unlike me, was a bit of a fighter, but a strategic tactician. He may not know what he's capable of, but he's become the Quantum Elder of Photography, the reality of the military. In fact, if you look into the lining, it's the life of Paris you never know when you'll die, but it's the same for me, right? The man who held it became a powerful force for me. ”

I was envious. If Harun himself had a friend, he wouldn't have been so desperate and desperate to have a hard time.

“I came from Neckwall to propose a beta tester, whether it was because he used his powers or because of his previous experience in experimentation. It was a kind of escape for me, having spent every single, helpless day for nothing. ”

Combat skills engraved on the body through practical experience that has demonstrated unrivalled abilities since the USSA era, and has been a top contender among beta testers. Through that process, I had a new sense of purpose in life, and decided to pioneer a new path in life through games.

That was the path of the dark gamer.

“But something happened after the beta test was completed. It was a few days before Beyond launched. With the help of Valtran, I received a precious gift the day I went to become an adult. It was an unknown box. ”

I felt something strange. It was like he was fighting his story.

“The identity of the box that I received as an adult gift from someone I don't remember was a capsule. It was also a very special capsule with a self. ”

“Who gave you this gift? ”

“I don't know. I rescued a few civilians on one of my missions. For research, there are often scientists out of the barrier who once rescued some of them from Hark's hands. He's one of them, and I don't even remember. Anyway, he was secretly working on this capsule as a side business, and he said he made the capsule. I couldn't forget my grace just before I died in an accident during my research, so I sent it as a gift. But the capsule was actually a supercapsule with a superego computer. ”

Damn it!

A thunderbolt struck my head. The process of receiving a capsule during the duel was so similar to that of something I had doubted.

“My capsule has been used ever since. Capsules with lightweight, high-end specifications include automatic nourishment, automatic fecal processing and optimum retention, as well as the ability to handle real-world tasks during the game. And even the best capsules increase the story rate up to 75 percent, up to 30 percent, which is the limit. It's a huge advantage that Bjorn has a fairy tale rate as high as he plays as an avatar built on his physical abilities in reality. ”

“But using these capsules, I came here to the Theon Empire and soon learned both the deadliest and best. Pros and cons were all attributed to one cause, and that was the high fairy tale rate. ”

It was the same with Harun.

“Near 60 percent fairy tale rates, I was delighted to see that the development of capabilities here was applied to the real world to some extent. because the muscles that were completely stiffened in the game and the nerves that were completely paralyzed began to recover. ”

It was the same as Harun. However, Harun did not know what his fairy tale rate was. I was not really interested.

“That's why I came here like crazy. But the fairy tale rate, which was so hopeful, was cursed behind it. Unlike the average foreigner playing at 15 to 20 percent of fairy tale rates, playing at fairy tale rates like mine was a very high probability that death here could lead to death in real life. I actually almost died trying to catch an ogre once. Usually capsules are forced to disconnect if the user's mental and physical condition is compromised, which he doesn't have. ”

I didn't know that. Haven't played a lot of virtual reality games, Harun has heard of them, but he doesn't know exactly.

“Usually when a user is completely unconscious in a game, other capsule users are forced to disconnect. to protect the user. But the capsule that I received as a gift didn't have that function. You can live in a fantasy world almost perfectly, but you face an impossible penalty for resurrection. ”

Hearing that, Harun's heart sank. Perhaps this problem was not only a competition, but also a common problem for Jisin. I had a problem with fairy tale rates that I had never considered seriously, but I heard that if I died in the game, I was very likely to die in reality.

I was sweating later. Even when I had died before, I felt terrible. It turned out that it was all because the fairy tale rate was high. Zombie was early in the game, so the fairy tale rate was 40%, but now more than 70% will probably die.

Harun thought that his latest fairy tale rate would be within 70% and outside. There has been little unnatural activity in the avatar's movements lately. Well, maybe it's a sense of being perfectly adapted to your avatar's condition. Harun had no idea that his fairy tale rate was nearly 100% when he was ambushed.

“Hmm, what an amazing capsule. By the way, to what degree does the capsule self-function? ”

“W-what about it? ”

The more I talked about the fight, the more I felt fed up with Harun. I couldn't figure out how much I knew. Even the same stranger couldn't understand this fact, but he felt like he knew something he didn't.

“I thought you said you had a superego computer built into you. ”

“Oh, I see. I was so surprised.”

Then the contest remembered what it said and looked surprised.

“Captain Harun is a great man to understand that. Yes, my capsule certainly has artificial intelligence as well as a sense of self. It's helping me a lot. In my current life, the Alps are my only friends and family. ”

The Alps are probably the names of the capsules he has.

“How do I usually start playing? Has the capsule changed or not? ”

“No, there's no such thing. What do you mean?”

Seeing the curious face of the duel, it doesn't seem the same type as the bell. It seemed like a high-functioning capsule with artificial intelligence.

‘Then why do I have a capsule like Bell? ’

Perhaps we should investigate these facts in secret through Henie, who is trying to create a friendly group of lenses. I thought that if I could dig a little deeper, I might be able to figure out a secret.

There's definitely something going on with the lenses. I don't know who's in charge, and I don't know what the purpose is. ’

When Harun heard about the fight, he remained silent for a moment. It was too shocking. I had a lot of thoughts in my head and got confused like a horse.

Seeing Harun like that, I kept my mouth shut for a long time.

“But, Captain, what are you going to do now? Can we get out of here? ”

You're probably worried about being stuck in a place like this, but getting out of here for Harun was really simple.

“We should get out.”

- Liffy, recall.

The summoned Liffy looks furious as Nia did when she tried to greet him.

- What's going on, man? Why have you changed? Are you awake?

- Haha, that's it. Listen to Nia for details and clear a path to the underground cancer.

- All right, buddy. Cancer's not far away, so it should be quick.

Rapidly, Lippi made a passageway that connects with cancer. I couldn't see it, but I could sense some of the movement of the fighting spirit.

‘Phew, that's amazing. What kind of spirit can make a passageway so easily and quickly? At least it's more than intermediate. ’

If you cast an Intermediate Spirit, it will not be pushed at all compared to you. No. Given the ability of a Spirit to use the power of a Spirit without special spells or formations, this is a higher path than you. Moreover, Valtran said that his cancer skills are surprisingly close and have excellent swordsmanship.

‘If it's this person, I'd like to join them. ’

I wanted to give up being a guild member of Baltrang for a while because of the Volkaworm. I felt comfortable being alone, but I didn't think it would be bad for someone like this. Moreover, he saved his own life. His gaze becomes hot as he looks at Harun walking ahead.

The underground armor couldn't tell where it was. I had to find a connection space that was an indicator of my judgment. I asked Liffy to find a large space. Fortunately, there was a connection between several underground armatures nearby.

“Hmm. This is the bottom hall. ”

The number of passageways or directions leading up to the hall was the lowest pavilion on the map the Dwarves had written. With a map, it shouldn't be difficult to get to the ground.

"Hold on, I'm going to find out exactly what your fears are. ’

Harun sharpened his teeth.

Supportive!

What is it? ’

It's been too long, so I almost missed it, but I definitely felt a vibration.

“Wait a minute.”

Harun seeks understanding from the duel, and pulls out a slash plugged into the inside of his body that meets his expectations. The notary was vibrating with a faint glow. It was a sign that there was a last notch left by the Dodgers not far away.

Harun was right that the dodgers would have headed this way. I'm just not sure why the signal came from underground, but Harun was only happy at the signal that there was a final seal deep underground.

“Hmm.”

The direction seemed to require a deeper descent to the northeast. That's where the dungeon is. I had to go to the ground to get revenge for the men who would worry about me, but I didn't know what to do for a moment since the sign of the screamer came.

“What's going on? ”

Harun asked me in a contest when he saw his face in trouble.

“Huh. I tried to get to the ground, but something came up. ”

As I spoke, I could clearly see where my heart was headed.

“Can I ask you a favor? ”

“Whatever it takes. You saved my life. I don't think I can do anything about it. ”

When I saw the face of the fight, I was full of sincerity. I was really thankful to him.

“Then do me a favor. ”

Harun asked you to tell the crew what to do.

“That's not even a job. But didn't the storm troopers enter the dungeon? ”

“I wouldn't go in there. If you did enter, please do not ask me to do anything. And this is a map of the underground corridor. Beware, there may be others besides the Vulcawam we captured. ”

Harun gave the map of the underground passageway to the duel. With Export-Intermediate capabilities, you can avoid a few dangers by memorizing the passageway clearly. Even though the Volkaworm moves quietly, it is compared to the giant fuselage. A lightly dressed Expert intermediate can escape the danger by using the passageway well without being overwhelmed.

“Very well. I will make sure this message is delivered alive." ”

He replied with a voice full of strength. Harun smiles bitterly as if he were becoming a gale mercenary.

Once the race is over, Harun decides to log out without moving at all. The rush to take care of it was to relax my mind because I decided to do it in the tournament. It's been a long time since I wanted to eat the food Azman cooks. I also wondered how Bell's research had progressed.

After logging out, Harun slowly moves down to the ground. The size of the capsule had to change at the moment the electromagnetic waves that followed the whole body disarmed, and the setting conditions, including gravity, were disarmed, but the bell was still doing what it was doing.

"Huh?"

I don't see Bell welcoming me all the time. I couldn't help but welcome him to the hologram, but there was no news. There was something else. The capsule should have returned to its original state upon logout, but not now. The capsules remained as large as they normally were when playing, with decorated electronic devices everywhere and electromagnetic waves connected to their entire body working normally.

What the hell is this? ’

I did not get used to capsules that felt like simple machines that had lost their selves. Harun tilts the Federation's head, feeling like he's lost something, like he's lost his warmth.

“Bell! Bell! ”

- Yes, Master, give the order.

Instead of revealing himself to his call, the voice from his brainwaves was too ignorant and mechanical.

“Belle? Belle, is that you? ”

- Yes, Master.

“What's wrong with you? ”

- Give the correct order. You want to explain the status?

Strange, indeed. Unlike the times when there was so much excitement and joy, it was a voice that could hardly feel the pitch.

“What's wrong with you? Why aren't you coming out? What the hell are you doing? ”

Harun lets out a howl to hide the anxiety that flows to his side, but his face frowns when the bell is not responding. Something was wrong.

“Where are you right now? ”

I wanted to see him bounce. I wanted to run and hug him and see him say "like." I wanted to give him a tight hug to his warm little body.

- It's hard to understand the Master's orders.

“Hard to understand? ”

- Yes, the Master is inside me.

The moment I heard that, Harun's eyes narrowed. Something really must have happened. The answer to his words now seemed to be something other than the adorable bell he had always seen.

“Once you've expanded the interior, turn it back to normal and let me out. ”

- Yes, Master.

He began to restore the capsule to its normal size without delay, as if he had received normal orders.

‘Dammit! I have to lie down again. ’

Seeing the capsule getting smaller and smaller, Harun quickly fell down to his place and felt anxious for a while as he saw the capsule cover opening, which had shrinked right in front of his face.

Profit!

Harun comes out as soon as the cover is bent with a soft drive sound. I pray Bell welcomes him. However, Harun vomited a slight malignancy when he looked around.

“Oops!”

The house was a mess. Small furniture fell down, bowls everywhere. That's why I forgot about Bell for a moment.

“Thief?”

Did he really have a thief? But this was an unpopular lake outside of Union. If it's a mutant, it's not a place for humans to break in.

Calming his surprise, Harun looked around and saw two little things coming out of the kitchen.

“Mamit?”

That's right, it was just Mammoth I saw in the old video. Although it is the size of a full-grown dog, Mamit is so gentle that it feeds thousands of predators. Mamit is a herbivore variety that is commonly seen outside the barrier.

“You bastards!”

Harun takes the mammoths and sends them out immediately. Although they were agitated, it was not that hard to catch them. In the process, Harun realized that his physical ability had once again evolved.

“That's amazing. ”

It became my mind not only to think but also to move at a rapid speed, but also to stop and explode. In case we made a leap, the ceiling reached for more than 3 meters, and when we touched it, the movements fell to the ground softly.

“My reality has awakened. ”

I was brought back to life by the magic of Thunderbolt, and now I have a new ability. The Avatar is not the only thing that has changed, but the physical body of reality.

Is that because fairy tale rates are high? Seems like you've gotten taller too. ’

I did. Not only did I get taller, but my body seemed to have changed to a well-balanced state. I don't know for sure, but when I looked at it with my own eyes, I could not compare my body to the body of the Avatar.

Harun suddenly turns his attention away from the base as he observes his new body for a while. You can hear the wind blowing outside and the ripples of the lake. The mammoths who let him go scratch at the door like they were about to come back inside.

“Oh! Belle, I know. ”

Mammoth distracts the base and her Awakened body for a moment. That's not what matters right now. I needed to know why the house turned into this, where Bell and Azman had to greet themselves.

Harun finds Azman in a loud voice, just in case.

- You wanted to see me, Master?

At that moment, Azman's voice was conveyed to the brain. It was a voice that felt as careless as the encapsulation bell did. But Harun was also glad to hear that voice. Harun, who was looking around, eventually couldn't find her.

“Azman, where are you? ”

- I'm always there.

“Where is it? ”

- Base level four.

“Show me your face right now. ”

- I can't show myself. I'm always there.

Harun has an unusual thought as the conversation continues that misfits. Not only did Azman not appear like Bell, but he also seemed to have lost his emotions.

Harun is reminded of something and rushes out of the base immediately. The door that opened and the mammoths came in meant they didn't come back from being out and about.

First, no one was seen in the fields or lakes that immediately caught my eye. I thought it was possible to go far away, but it was not possible for Azman to do so because Bell could not be far away from the main body capsule.

‘Then it must be nearby. ’

Harun looks around closely. After looking around for such a long time, the lid eventually opened, revealing a complex mechanical device on the roof, we were able to find charred bells and Azman.

“Oh no. Bell! Azman!”

Only Bell and Azman must have been. When the appearance was burnt to a crisp, it was possible that he died, but it was unclear that the two were Division types that were separated from the body.

Why is this happening all of a sudden? I think I was struck by lightning. Is it the fairy tale rate? ’

Harun trembles.

Likely His avatar must have drawn the lightning that was present in the atmosphere in order to achieve Thunderbolt magic. Only Bell and Azman, who were just outside, were burned by the lightning.

“Bell! Azman! ”

Harun's hand holding Bell's body, which he accepted into his family, trembled. Tears poured out without knowing it. It was a tear I had forgotten for a while.

“Belle, I killed you! ”

I felt like my heart was breaking. She sits there, holding the bell in her arms, mourning for so long.

“No! He can't be dead. ”

Harun comes into the base with Bell and Azman's burnt body in his mind. The body is still running, it's a biocomputer, but life is different from humans, so maybe it's not dead.

“Azman!”

- Yes, Master.

“You're alive, right? ”

- If you're referring to my sub-transformer, he's dead.

“What about you? ”

- I'm Maine, and I'm two days into my independence. The sub-transformer, which has been in operation so far, has stopped rapidly, so I, the main body, have become independent.

“So your sub-transformer was a person with a separate personality or intelligence? ”

- In a way. It was originally identical, but after confirming that the master was imprinted, it was evolving independently into a sub-transformer with artificial intelligence. Knowledge and experience were shared, but the transformer took them.

“Imprint?”

I don't know what you're talking about. Ah! Maybe it's the earliest memory of the existence of Gaia.

- We call Mother Gaia's initial command imprinting. Except for the master's perception, the imprint is unknown because all of the sub-transformers have taken it.

Fortunately, he is still perceived as a master on this computer. By the way, Bell and Azman will be fine to think that they are separate from the capsules or computers at the base.

Harun considers the existence of two troublesome people for a moment.

“Make sure they're both alive. ”

- Get him to the lab on the third floor. Would you like to conceal the development facility again?

“Improvement facilities? ”

- Yes, because of recent research, we needed more power, so we were going to add more power to our existing solar generators and start our hydrogen generators.

‘That's why you two were at the power plant on the top of the base. ’

“Is it safe?”

Solar power is available at any time, and hydrogen power has been successfully tested.

I didn't know I needed power for these two.

“Then let's start making progress. ”

- All right, let's get moving.

Whoo-hoo.

Heavy vibrations have erupted throughout the base. Hearing that, Harun hurries toward the third floor underground. It must have been made by Bell with the guidance of Azman, who oversees the entire base. There were facilities that appeared to be incubators, sterile workshops that were working on cells, and robots with microscopic devices.

As soon as I laid down the burnt bells and Azman in the place designated by Azman, a number of electronic devices began to operate. First, a detailed investigation was begun with many electronic machines moving around with electronic sound around them. Harun's heart was burning as he watched it.

"Stay alive, Belle! ’

Belle who desperately wanted to be Human. Thinking about Bell, who separated from the body and wanted to be a human being and be with her, tears flow again. When have I ever given her so much love? This was the first time I felt this way in my life. I feel sick and empty as if my whole body had fallen off.

The results of the test were long after. I heard a polite voice that felt nothing at all.

-There is no longer a biophenomenon in both division types.

My heart sank. However, I was expecting very little, so the disappointment could not be expressed in words.

“Well, is he dead? ”

- Yes, in life form, he died. Biocells are burned by powerful high-pressure currents, and bioneural circuits are damaged as well.

Despair. Two innocent people are dead because of you. I don't know if it's appropriate to be a Division type biocomputer separate from the main body, but Harun always treated them as human beings, so their grief was hard to pronounce.

- It's just a little weird.

“Strange phenomenon? ”

Stem biocells found in Bell's Division type are undamaged. Maybe it can hatch.

“What are you talking about? ”

-Street biocells with various information about growth are equivalent to living organisms where sperm and eggs have been fertilized and made into lenses. The Division Time of Bell was recently completed, and stem biocells with various genetic information, as well as information and instructions regarding growth and differentiation, have not been compromised and thus may be capable of culture and differentiation.

I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm pretty sure there's hope that Bell will show up in front of him again.

“What about Azman?”

-My sub-transformer is also a key part, the non-metallic material has not been damaged. Unlike Bell's Division Type, it seems to take quite a while to differentiate into prototypes.

“Fine! Then hurry! ”

- Yes, Master.

Thank goodness. It doesn't matter if it wasn't Belle he knew. It would be the same to him. I was so happy that my tears flowed without fail.

“What's the estimated time? ”

- Bell's about a month old, and my sub-transformer's about that big.

“Great. What do you need, then? ”

- Please come to my main body. We'll let you know what you need.

Harun goes down to the fourth floor of the basement. Many electronic devices were operating with light and sound as if welcoming him. I heard Azman's voice in his head.

I'm in charge of running this secret base, Azman. This whole room is my body. I aggregate the entire site through sub-computers and currently have an operating rate of about 32%.

“Greetings!”

I said hello and felt strange somehow. It was awkward because I knew that the sub-transformer, which was human, could control emotions, was Azman.

“Then ask for a house. Pay attention to their differentiation. ”

- Don't worry, Master.

Harun, who received a list of what he needed right away from Azman, hurriedly went to the ground to reconnect to Beyond.
