Isekai Taneuma

End of Service Date

The overpaid room was surprisingly quiet. If there is no ticking sound, no mechanical sound will be heard. Until just now, the peachy parka was annoying, but somehow it flew away, and now I can't hear any noise.

In the silence of such a tinnitus, I saw Sofia's dress shining in the light, and I felt like I was somehow lost in my dreams. Her red eyes look blurry in the air with nothing. Mary certainly had purple eyes. Sofia in the game had blue eyes and used magic to turn red. Oh, my God. She was a good role-player in this world.

The fine dust danced into the sky, and the light that plunged through the window created curtains of light, covering her figure. When I saw such a fantastic figure, I felt that the time was going to pass forever, and I broke the silence and called out from Feng, who thought that the voice was not clear.

"Were you Emilia...?

"No, it's not."

"Emilia's relatives... who I know?

"No, that's not true."

"Then who was Sofia?"

As if she dared to take the time to ask the question, she lifted the cup by the saucer, held the cup in her right hand with the saucer in her left hand, and swallowed the contents silently. When it was snapped back to the table, she said with her pin and spine stretched out, looking straight at the phoenix.

"I'm an AI made by your father..."

"... Ai?

"Yes."

Her answer was very simple. Therefore, it was also easy to understand. Oh, that kind of thing just fell into my heart. Even though the game was VRMMO, all the characters in charge were avatars. Some men, like Jeanne, played female characters, and some BOTs repeated simple tasks, sometimes banned.

Machine manipulation is a technology that has been around for a long time. It's no wonder there's a mix of AIs that answer like humans. The question is why there was such a thing, pretending to be Emilia....

"After all, that's the core of the problem. As you pointed out, Emilia had already left the world when I started playing the burning Sofia character in that game. I mean, I was created by your father to fool you from the beginning... no, of course I was a researcher at his company."

"Why did my father do that?

Feng listened to it himself, and his heart was filled with a very unpleasant feeling. There was a buzzing heart, and there was a lot of talk about whether some strange drugs were being secreted in the brain. I've seen the goal a long time ago, but I don't like going there and I feel like I'm wandering around the maze deliberately.

Could Sofia have felt the same way? She seemed less inclined to say, playing with the teacup many times with her hands, but eventually said slowly and without a front. After all, there was a reality there that could not be fixed.

"She... tried to kill herself impulsively right after you started the incident. Actually, she had a bad prognosis after the abortion, and she was pessimistic about the world....."

"... pregnant?... abort? Wait a minute, I don't know. What the hell is going on?"

"Thank you so much...."

Sofia sighed too hard to say. A sharp gaze was moving around his chest. The area where I chewed the edge of my lips with regret was a little red. Is it because it happened to the person who became her model, or because she is a woman....

"Whether we agree or not, if we do what we have to do, we can have kids. The person who attacked Emilia was a child who could not even think of such a recovery, so naturally she did not try to use contraception. When she came home from the trip, she couldn't tell her parents and she was in trouble by herself, but when September passed and they said they didn't want to go to school, they finally realized that something was happening to her body.

Immediately she was taken to the hospital for an abortion, which left her both physically and mentally dysfunctional. Naturally, the parents tried to sue the opponent through middle school, but the school was overwhelmed by an unprecedented scandal, and some of the opponent's parents seemed to be great, so they tried to cover up the scandal. The opponent then formed a ruling party and was locked in with many logic. It seemed problematic that he was a junior high school student with no ability to take responsibility and his parents were foreigners. It's really cold in an exotic land that doesn't have people to rely on at times like this.

It was when such rare days lasted. Her parents were tired, the conversation stopped from inside the house, and her condition worsened with each passing day. That's when you started the case. No matter how much you complain, it was a severe blow to the person you hang out with. At last the press made a noise. That's why my parents were happy. But she wasn't. She... knew you'd retaliated against them, and you felt better that you knew you were dirty. "

And she turned down her life impulsively. I jumped out of an apartment near my home.

"Did I... stab you in the end?

My throat was dry and scratched, and I barely got a voice. Sophia, who barely heard of it, shook her head silently. No, nothing wrong with him... but it was also true that his actions pushed her back as a result.

Feng was in a lot of shock and felt a pain in his stomach that was about to twist. Without knowing anything, I just tried to shake my justice, and as a result, I hurt what I wanted to protect. He regretted the mistakes of the past, but more than that, he regretted them so much.

The words of his father, who beat him up when he was taken to the police station and cried out with his face bright red, are still refreshed many times in his head.

"I didn't know that, but when you were released, you went to see Emilia, and your parents rejected you. I was really grateful to you that I couldn't let someone like you meet my daughter... but I thought you'd be shocked if you told me the truth."

They managed to sue the opponent, trying to keep the public on their side, and now they turned to cover up the case. After that, Feng couldn't see Emilia and ran away in grief. My father thought it would be useless to forcibly bring him back, and he dared to watch. He didn't know that, but after six months of homelessness, he lowered his head to his father to help him and went home.

"When you came home, you lost your temper and looked like a loser. There was no appetite, no reply, and if I knew the truth, I would have died. That's why my father misunderstood… he tried to revive Emilia online using the AI he was working on at the time. That's me...."

By that time, Feng Group had taken off the IT company and become a complex of various companies. Among them was the developer of the example VRMMO, which Sofia began developing as an AI to manipulate the game avatar. However, the AI of pretending to be human is obvious, but it is difficult to develop, and it seems that it was quite difficult to sail at first.

"To put it simply, I wasn't human at first. So at first, with the help of Emilia's parents, I created an AI that acts like that. And I decided to play a relatively silent character called Sofia, the burning eye, so as not to get worn out. Still, I sometimes behave strangely, so I recruited people as my support staff to play games with me, and players as sakura because I had to play games in the first place.

As I continued to play games pretending to be Emilia, as machine learning progressed, my human taste gradually increased. Your father tried to make me the perfect person, but he didn't put a thread in the development fund. It was so obsessive that the Feng Group... eventually won the bet that I became the first autonomous AI in the world to understand the natural language and do the same video processing as humans.

And I was able to play games, chat, and occasionally blow up with gacha. Just in that game, I tried something new, fashionable, and fell in love....

In other words, your father created a computer that acts and thinks like a human for the purpose of completely deceiving you. This was me, Sofia the Burning Eye, and later the birth of an AI called the DAVID System. "

"Well then... maybe you were David?

"No, it's not. I'm like that prototype. Genuine DAVID was supposed to be operated by a quantum computer with processing speeds that were not comparable to mine. Well, I didn't see it, and the AI doesn't really exist, so I don't know what's going on anymore...."

Does Sofia feel like a computer was performing as well as a DAVID was operating on a supercomputer? When she finished her role as a prototype, growth stopped there, but as DAVID continued to grow as the times progressed and technology developed, no one could imagine how capable she was today.

"That's why initially I was born to replace Emilia, and sometime I was evolving into an AI that could reach unprecedented singularity. Instead of just keeping playing the same game for a while, the move to disconnect from the VRMMO for a full-scale investigation and move forward to the next stage of development accelerated.

By that time, you had already forgotten about the incident and regained a great deal of calm, so the fathers thought it would be okay to finish the game, and finally the end of the service day came.

I thought my role would end at the end of the service, so I couldn't go to see you even if you called me. I was sure that when the game was over, my memory would be erased and another stage for machine learning would be prepared.

But... the next time the server shut down and I woke up, I was on the couch in the Shake of God Cage and somehow I was the only priest in the world. Did I start another game again? I thought I was feeling different... and I didn't have anything else to do, so I checked the machine there in detail. You can imagine the rest, right?

She discovered a video of the past in the "Shaking Cage of God," where DAVID, which was developed based on herself, discovered the fifth particle energy, produced Lucion, and gradually drove human beings to Earth. She understood that she had become a priest in the video, and since then, she had led the Holy Empire as the only army that could confront the Demon King.

Feng soon understood it. But even though I understand, I still have questions.

"Why is this happening? When I woke up, a long time had passed and Earth civilization had perished. I can tell by now. But why did we wake up on another planet that wasn't Earth? What happened to Earth humans before we got here?

"I don't know for sure. Perhaps... as far as the" Shaking Cage of God "is concerned, it seems that humans have quantified their bodies and turned the earth over to Rasha. The priests who gained eternal life no longer wanted the flesh to evolve. So maybe the priests traveled through the universe with only their quantized data. And after so many years, I woke up when I got to this planet...."

"Why was it Sofia? Then, why was there already a demon tribe on the planet where I woke up? Where did humans and beasts come from?

"Wouldn't it be a good idea to think that a sowing vessel traveling through space also had cold sleepers and Lucion Maker on board...?

"No, that's hard to think about. They ran away because they could no longer be on Earth, but that's like bringing trouble on purpose. In reality, the world is tortured by demon kings that appear regularly."

"... but I can't think of anything else."

"You don't have to force me to answer. Maybe the conditions aren't right yet... so what's the Genesis Myth? Is that what you spread to the people of this world?

So far, Genesis mythology seems to be a brief representation of what happened on Earth in the past. But there is no reason why Sofia should deliberately make it a myth and let people hear it. Then she denied it.

"Soon the myth was spreading among the people. Standing in this world, I made saints to fight the demons and gathered the locals around. By the time it finally began to function as a nation, the myth had already spread."

"So, who spread it? It is possible that the priest who manipulated P99 found the video of the past and created the myth....."

"It's hard to think about. It was strictly sealed off so I wouldn't let anyone else operate it, because it was related to the root of the Empire. Only after I demonized him did I teach Emilia how to activate it...."

"Emilia... oh, the Emperor... hmm? Yes! Where did Emilia, the last god of the four pillars, come from? If Emilia we know is already dead, then what is this guy...?

Sofia shook her head in silence. I don't know... I guess. Feng sighed. He had always believed that the true ancestor Sofia and the god Emilia were the same. But today, as far as I can tell, she and God Emilia are apparently separate. And we still don't know anything about the relationship between God Emilia and his childhood friend Emilia.

After all, there's so much I still don't know... about this world.

What happened to the earth that was swept up by Rasha? How does Emilia, who is supposed to be dead, relate to it? Why did Sofia, the AI, wake up as the first priest in the world? Shouldn't it have been someone else?

"... there's a lot of things I don't know, but there's one thing that's clear. If it stays this way, I'll demonize it now."

"That's... I'm sorry. If I hadn't called you into this world, this wouldn't have happened....."

"In that case, the world itself would have been destroyed by the Demon King, so there would have been no choice. I have no grudges... and I haven't given up yet."

Three hundred years ago, the hero who was about to become the Devil King took the memory of his fellow Leonardos and disappeared from the world... As a result, the Devil King did not appear, well, it was full of wars, but there must be some way to avoid this world because it kept peace without being threatened by the Devil Clan.

"Thank you for talking to me. I've solved what I was hooked on, and it's refreshing... but not at all..."

"Yeah."

"But now, without looking back at the past, it looks forward. No, the other way around. It seems that Emilia, the last pillar of these four pillars, has something to do with who we're dealing with. I don't know who this is, but I need you to drag him out and do something about it. I don't want to be a monster."

"Well... if there's anything I can do to help you do that, I'll do anything."

"... please."

While talking like that, the doors of the reception room were knocked and the butler Sebastian arrived. Apparently it is time for the Emperor to return to the capital. It seems like a lot of time has passed since I realized it and made me wait for her.

Feng regained consciousness, beating his cheek with bread, and stood up, and followed Sofia to the emperor.
