Chapter Index

    “This is the Android you ordered.”

    “Android?”

    The manager of Paradise Club was handed the placebo ID card with a puzzled look on his face. At the same time, he moved his head back and forth, looking on both sides and behind me, as if trying to find the android.

    “I don’t remember ordering Android. No, rather, where is Android now… ”

    The manager, who was muttering like that, looked at the placebo ID card and his face hardened.

    “… Customer, no, you are an android?”

    “Yes, I am.”

    I nodded without smiling.

    When asked why I pretend to be an android while thinking negatively about androids, it’s not that I have nothing to say.

    First of all, I don’t have a bad opinion of Android itself. I have never experienced any damage from machines, and I think it would be nice to have at least one android that obeys its owner’s orders and takes care of all the annoying tasks.

    It’s just that I don’t like guys who don’t know the subject and try to compete with humans.

    And above all, the easiest way to get the things I wanted was to pretend to be an android.

    EMP weapons, hacking equipment, filming drones, etc. were all specialized and dangerous items for an ordinary person to encounter.

    However, if you can join the Awaken, a group of self-aware androids pretending to be androids, you can get access to such items with relative ease.

    The problem is that even if you go there, most of the objects will be visible in the process of colliding with humans…

    Anyway, once I get in, I will be able to manipulate the situation to my advantage.

    However, the manager looked skeptical even after seeing the placebo ID card.

    “Are you kidding me? Nothing was detected in the tester.”

    ‘Guidebook, what does this mean?’

    [Because Elysion is an android that has the same appearance as a human, the problem of confusing the two entities often occurred. To prevent this, all facilities in Elysion have mandatory Android checkers installed to detect Android.]

    ‘Oh, there was such a setting.’

    That was something I hadn’t looked into.

    “But it’s definitely written as Android, and you’re also sure it says it belongs to me, right? What’s going on… ”

    The manager scratched his head, took out a terminal that resembled a smartphone from his pocket, tapped it a few times, and then spoke.

    “That’s really strange. The tester is normal… ?”

    The effectiveness of the placebo ID card had already been proven through my use of it, but it seemed to be difficult to understand because it conflicted with the manager’s common sense.

    ‘Well, aside from the fact that you have to be of lower status than the person looking at the ID card, you can easily accept it if it doesn’t conflict with what you already knew.’

    Otherwise, wouldn’t it be possible to establish an identity like a monkey or an alien?

    Using my high-speed thinking, I came up with a suitable excuse and added another word to prevent the time from being wasted.

    “That’s because it’s a military model. It is clear that it cannot be used properly until it is detected by a simple private scanner.”

    “Military model… ? Open data communication for a moment. I’ll check it out.”

    ‘Write… It’s so tricky. If a free Android came rolling in, I’d just say thank you and take it.’

    I clicked my tongue inwardly at the manager’s probing questions.

    “Communication with the outside world is fundamentally blocked due to the risk of hacking. For military models, security is the most important.”

    “It’s for military use… It looks like a real human… ”

    “Although it is a body made entirely like a human, it is an old model. It is a model that cannot be connected to a communication network and focuses purely on hardware functions. Because of this, some models, including mine, were underutilized, so their development was discontinued and they were sold to the private sector.”

    “… I’m sure I’ll need some strength.”

    Now the manager seemed almost convinced. At this stage, understanding will be quicker if you show them directly that they are different from humans.

    Sereungㅡ

    I took out a sword from my inventory. It was a sword kept as a spare in the Tuseonhyuphaengrok. It would probably appear to the manager as equipment built into the body somewhere.

    “What, what is it?”

    The manager seemed to be taken aback by the sight of him suddenly pulling out a weapon, but he didn’t pay any attention and wrapped the Cheongungbulbyeokgong around his left arm. Then, a soft blue light began to come out through the skin.

    I calmly slashed the area with the sword I had drawn.

    Sze-

    The sword cut through the forearm with a small noise, but no wounds were left on the skin.

    I spoke calmly to the manager who had a surprised look on his face.

    “This is a spec that will not leave a scratch on most weapons. I understand that you purchased it for expenses, but it can be used for other purposes as well.”

    “For other purposes?”

    “It depends on the owner’s will.”

    “Oh… ”

    When I answered while looking around at the other sex androids on display around me, the manager looked me up and down with a small exclamation.

    ‘I think I’ve gotten over it all, but let’s try it here.’

    “If an order error occurred, we will return. then… ”

    “Oh, no! Now that I think about it, I think I ordered it! That’s right, I ordered it… ! Wow, I ordered this a long time ago and completely forgot about it, but it’s finally arrived. ha ha ha… ”

    As soon as I give him a slight signal, he gets startled and tries to dissuade me. He seemed very suspicious, and when he heard that he was giving it to him and then taking it away, he reacted violently.

    ‘Of course it is.’

    I smiled sinisterly to myself.

    If you could get such a high-performance Android (or not) for free, there was no way anyone could turn it down. It was clear that I wouldn’t even dare to buy it with a reasonable amount of money, and if a problem arises later and it is collected, I can just accuse myself of not knowing about it.

    “Hmm, first of all, let’s register at the business as written here. Model name… Minho-144th Army. You can just call me Minho. My name is Victor.”

    “Thank you very much. Victor.”

    “Here, attach this to your shoulder. It is an Android distinguishing mark.”

    Victor, the manager of Paradise Club, searched the desk in the lobby and handed me the badge he took out from there.

    The round badge on a green background had the shape of a power button commonly seen on electronic devices engraved in white.

    “These days, there are testers everywhere, so it’s an item that isn’t used very often, but since you don’t get caught by the tester, you should at least distinguish it like this. Now that it’s in my possession, it’s okay for unnecessary problems to arise. And quickly put that sword away! He’s strong anyway, so there’s no reason to put such a nasty thing out there and scare the customers. Don’t bring that up again in the future.”

    “Okay.”

    “Then, like I said, let’s start with security work.”

    ***

    “Hmm… i love it… Should I go home and get an Asian Android?”

    A small room with soft LED lighting. A young beauty with pale skin muttered on the disheveled bed sheets.

    Is it because of the sudden craze? Beads of sweat were forming on her plump chest as she lay lazily. I said while massaging that soft lump of flesh with my hand.

    “Because I’m a special case.”

    “Ugh… Can you tell me what model it is? That’s because I’m really curious.”

    She seems to be very satisfied, as she asks me questions. However, it was impossible to tell a fake model name that does not exist to someone who was very motivated to buy it. It is also a concept that was originally developed for military use.

    “Sorry. The manager said it was a trade secret… ”

    “Tch… There’s nothing I like about that manager, including his fashion sense.”

    In response to my answer, which appropriately used Victor as an excuse, the woman covered herself with a blanket and lay down as if she was sulking.

    It’s already been a week since I infiltrated Paradise Club as an android.

    ​​During that time, he stood guard without eating or sleeping, and showed incredible energy towards the female customers who came in from time to time, completely immersing himself in the role of an android.

    Of course, that was what other people saw, and in reality, he was sleeping while pretending to charge on the wireless charger for Android, and eating food using the inventory. The stamina is simply due to the enormous stamina ability.

    Sometimes, when Victor tried to treat me harshly or introduce me to a guest who didn’t meet my standards, he gave off a subtle, murderous vibe that made me feel intimidated.

    “I am the owner! If you’re a security android, you should only exert physical influence on intruders!”

    “Sorry. The self-defense program is activated automatically.”

    Victor, who was suddenly threatened by the android, cried, but it was not a very important fact.

    Thanks to this, I got a sense of how much lethal energy I had to exert to properly defeat someone.

    His daily routine of working as a security guard and then rolling around in bed with a female customer he liked continued for a while.

    And again, a few days later, I finally witnessed the original story begin.
