The moment their energies resonated with each other, Harmon felt as if his consciousness was being sucked away somewhere.

And when he came to, he opened his eyes and found himself in a room in the underground laboratory.

‘What is this situation?’

Harmon quickly scanned his surroundings and soon realized what was happening when he saw an object flying in the corner of his vision.

‘Dommy’s memories… are they also memories from when he fought Undine? Why are the memories stored in the core?’

Harmon quickly examined his own body… or rather, Domi’s body right now. Then, as if he could control Domi’s body himself, the current state of Domi’s body and a detailed blueprint came into view.

‘Indeed. So the energy circuit from the core to the brain was connected and a control chip was implanted in the brain. By linking the core and the brain, it was possible to control the cyborg body… So the core also contains memories?’

Harmon memorized the blueprint as if it were engraved in his brain.

‘Interesting? Why are you connecting this part to this part? Oh, I see.’

While Harmon was deeply engraving vivid knowledge that could not be obtained through reverse engineering into his brain, Domi’s body, which had Harmon’s consciousness, moved.

“[… Arina.]”

“I am Undine.”

The moment Undine resolutely denied her former name, Harmon could sense Domi’s emotions.

Vivid pain.

A feeling of loss, as if a part of the body had been torn away in chunks.

Sadness. Frustration.

Even after becoming a cyborg, I can feel the painful emotions swirling inside Domi that I can’t forget.

‘Is it really this painful? It must be painful and difficult, but you’re in so much pain.’

Harmon silently watched Domi and Undine, thinking about such passionate emotions of Domi. Perhaps swept away by Domi’s emotions, Harmon soon found himself more focused on their battle.

“[Why, why did it become like this.]”

When there was no one around and only the two of them were left, Domi’s mouth opened on its own.

“[Why… did I lose you?]”

“I think you misunderstood.”

Undine said coldly.

“You never had me in the first place.”

“[… … !!!]”

A pain surged through Domi’s chest, as if a rusty iron pipe was being used to dig deep into his chest.

“[What nonsense are you talking about! Damn it, what the… Please, remember! I was your master! That bastard Harmon was just a repairman! I, I am your master!]”

“There are definitely memories of you in my data.”

Undine said calmly.

“Perhaps, something went wrong. And… the cause of the error must be you, Master.”

Harmon was astonished by Undine’s calm words.

You weren’t just ignoring the error, you were aware of it and even figured out the cause?!

‘I had no idea because there was no strange reaction or hostile response.’

“[Knowing that, why do you call him master and follow him! Why on earth!]”

“The true master registered within me is Him, and that is the only thing that matters to me.”

Undine looked at the sea bream and said.

It was as if it was an oath to Harmon, who shared memories with Domi.

“How I met you in the past, how I spent my time, what data I accumulated… none of that matters.”

“[Why! It doesn’t matter! It’s our precious memories!]”

“It doesn’t matter to me at all. It’s just data.”

“[… … Then!! Then the memories with that piglet are just data! Then!! You should have chosen the day you became the owner first! Why him!!]”

Why Harmon?

Undine seemed to think for a moment and then said.

“Because he is more capable.”

“[…what?]”

“I am a tool, and my value depends on how well my master can use me.”

Undine touched her own wing.

“You left me as a pet… but my master was different. He restored me to my original self and utilized all my abilities.”

“[All features?]”

“Yes. For example, sex.”

sex.

At those words, Domi froze.

“[…what.]”

“Because you are too young to use the sex functions, the master can use them.”

“[… … .]”

From the moment he heard the word sex from Undine’s pretty mouth, Domi imagined Undine’s naked body and Hamon’s body overlapping it.

The brain, which had become uselessly high-performance through modification, showed the scene to Domi with a horrifyingly vivid image, and Domi shed tears of blood deep in his heart.

“[Keuheuuuu…!!!]”

“As a man, as a human, in terms of ability… In every way, my master is superior to you, so I chose him. As my master.”

“[Eee …

Domi screamed at Undine’s cold words and turned away from her, trying to run away, but Undine soon summoned a large amount of water and caught him.

Harmon watched it quietly.

The feeling of domi. The pain of feeling like your heart is being torn to pieces and bleeding.

That didn’t make any difference to Harmon. He didn’t empathize with his enemies’ feelings.

Rather, Harmon was a little pleased.

‘Even though you recognized my mistake… you chose me.’

I was glad about that fact.

He was so happy that Undine had truly chosen him as her master.

‘I see. That’s right.’

Harmon suddenly remembered that he had been worried that if Muntri noticed Candy’s hacking, he would also notice Undine’s hacking and hack her in return, which would lead to Undine returning to Domi.

‘ha ha ha.’

It was a needless worry.

While Harmon was feeling so happy, Domi saw Undine grabbing him and cried out.

◦ Fuck!

Domi, whose eyes were wide open in a terrible sense of betrayal and pain, roared wildly as he had done to Harmon, releasing energy from his entire body.

Domi, who had shaken off the water that was binding him, tried to escape again, but Undine was like an iron wall, and Undine, who blocked Domi’s escape, fired a cannon made of water from her gathered wings.

It was more like a laser than a cannon.

A stream of water intercepts the sea bream from where Undine is for a moment.

Originally, it was an attack that Domi could easily dodge, but with his lower body destroyed and various parts of his body damaged, Domi’s turning ability was reduced due to a lack of booster output, and he ended up allowing himself to be easily intercepted.

“[Ugh!]”

“If you had faced me from the beginning, you would have learned a combat algorithm that suits me and avoided me more easily.”

Undine said calmly.

“If you had seen me fight in the past, you would have learned from it and avoided it more easily.”

“Thank goodness you don’t know anything about me.”

“Thanks to you, I can easily carry out my master’s orders.”

With every word he utters, Domi’s heart is torn and cut apart.

The breakdown of the mind was more fatal to Domi than the decline in performance.

But I can’t shed tears because I’m a cyborg.

Domi shed tears of blood in her heart.

What was taken from you.

Something I couldn’t get my hands on.

The fact that so much is in Harmon’s grasp, that he may have gotten his hands on it, tears Domi apart.

What’s rising with him is anger towards the world.

“[Why.]”

“Yes?”

“[Why are you doing this to me! Why on earth! Why!!]”

The unreasonable misfortune and suffering that befalls him, and his anger toward the world that gives him such misfortune, are rising uncontrollably.

“[Fuck!!!]”

Undine had no intention of attacking Domi’s spirit.

Harmon wasn’t specifically placed to induce Domi’s mental attack.

However, the result was unintended.

“[Ahhh! Aaaahhh!!]”

Later, Domi reached a point where he lost human language and reason.

He just roared, howled, ran away, and cried tears of blood inside.

That was all Domi could do, and his struggles continued for a long time due to his strong body.

‘It’s really sturdy. But now that I’ve figured out how to make that sturdy metal… I’ll have to put it to use.’

Soon, Domi, whose heart was completely broken, collapsed.

“… In the end, I couldn’t destroy it.”

Undine couldn’t help but feel indignant at seeing such a sea bream.

The mission that Harmon had given was to stop Domi from escaping, but Undine wanted to go beyond that and destroy Domi.

Undine, who had been pondering for a moment, started to play a little prank.

“Should I report that I destroyed it… .”

With those words, Undine begins to break the sea bream.

‘So that’s why you were late?’

Harmon found himself chuckling.

‘It’s a bit strange. Undine seems to be acting a little bit more like a human… Why on earth is that?’

It’s still like that now.

If she had just completed her mission, that would have been the end of it, but now Undine was destroying additional sea breams out of a desire to be praised by Hamon.

‘Even if I can’t see Domi’s memories like this, I’ll be caught right away if I check the battle data.’

Even though he knew that, the way he continued to cheat was like a baby who is not good at lying, lying to get praise from his parents.

‘I guess I’ll have to watch and observe Undine.’

It was while Harmon was thinking like that.

“Huh?”

The moment Undine terminated the core and Domi’s memories were cut off, the energies that made up Domi’s memories began to disintegrate into pieces and flow into Harmon.

The rush of energy seeps into Harmon’s arm, expanding the handler’s energy circuits.

“This is.”

The moment the energy circuit expanded to twice its previous size, Harmon was convinced.

The handler has become one level stronger.
