‘First, I have to register my souvenirs.’
As I called up the menu, I remembered what happened in the New Kind world.
While I was taking a shower after putting Blair, who had completely fainted, on the bed, Maria spoke to me.
-master!
‘Uh, is the update finished?’
-Ah yes. The update is complete. However, I was wondering if I could feel internal energy, so I scanned my entire body…
‘so? ‘Did you feel the inner strength?’
-no… Even if I did this, I couldn’t detect my strength. Rather, during a detailed scan, an abnormality was discovered in the owner’s body…
‘What’s wrong?’
-that… The number of reproductive cells produced in the master’s body is too low…
‘… … .’
I knew what Maria was talking about. It probably means that I have azoospermia, as I had suspected.
Maria quickly added, as if she knew that even though she was an artificial intelligence, this problem was very important to humans.
-But don’t worry! Using the newly increased computing power with this update, you can fix it in an instant! It’s a simple problem that wouldn’t have taken that long even before the update!
‘okay? Then is birth control possible?’
-… ? Yeah, well… Contraception is easy… ?
‘Good. Then set it to birth control until I tell you.’
-yes…
It was a bit shocking to officially find out that I was a seedless watermelon, but I had already guessed it to some degree based on past experience.
‘That’s right, even though I’ve been doing so well, I haven’t had a child… ‘
Anyway, it was resolved easily thanks to Maria, so it wasn’t that important anymore.
Rather, now that we have a reliable contraceptive method called nanobots, in the future we will be thinking, ‘No way…’ The thought ‘?’ will not arise.
And as expected, Maria’s update was registered in the souvenir list under the name [Biological Computer].
At the time, I was taking a shower and practicing internal energy, but I didn’t feel anything strange about my body.
‘Then we should register the nanobot so that it can be used in real life.’
I paid 2000 mileage and added two new souvenirs to my list.
[souvenir]
-[Extrasensory perception – high-speed thinking]
-[Telos – Ignis]
-[Martial arts – Changgung great stretching attack, Heavenly arch firefighting]
-[Multi-purpose nanobot – entity name Maria] (100%)
-[Biological Computer]
-master! Is this reality?
As soon as I registered the nanobot as a souvenir, Maria’s high-pitched voice rang in my eardrums.
“That’s right. It’s my house in reality.”
-Oh oh… Than you think… It’s cozy.
“It’s a bit small. I’m thinking of moving to a larger place soon. And even a house like this is cleaner than the abandoned factory that Awaken used as a hideout.”
-but… If the owner is capable, finding a house won’t be a problem.
I comforted Maria, who looked a bit disappointed, and took out the photography drone I had acquired this time from my inventory.
The drone, which had a streamlined black body, was about the same size as my fist, so it was quite small.
‘However, this small drone has performance that can replace the heavy broadcast cameras in reality.’
“Maria, can you control this?”
-Of course.
As soon as Maria answered, the drone placed in my palm lit up and quietly floated into the air.
‘I like it better because it’s silent.’
“Let’s see… I need to test the screen to see if it takes pictures well… ”
I muttered and took out my smartphone, but Maria stopped me.
-wait a minute. You don’t need a terminal. Thanks to improved performance, this is also possible.
“Oh, this is… !”
As soon as Maria finished speaking, a small screen appeared in one corner of my vision.
What was naturally visible, like a ticket menu, was the screen that the drone was filming in real time.
There I was, smiling brightly and looking into space. I did look a little stupid.
“If this were possible, it would be very convenient to check the chat window or donations while doing other things, right?”
When I broadcast, I was the type of person who managed the chat window by myself rather than having a separate manager. Choosing trustworthy people from among the viewers was also a task, and I didn’t think it was necessary to hire a manager while paying him a salary.
Still, there were times when I had to check with my smartphone when doing outdoor broadcasts or exercise broadcasts, which was a bit inconvenient, but I don’t think I need to worry about that anymore.
‘No. I don’t have to manage it myself, right? ‘I’ve got a great subordinate.’
-Chat window? Sponsorship?
“Oh, I didn’t tell you yet.”
I continued talking while moving around with the drone in front of me.
“In real life, I’m an internet broadcaster.”
-Yes!?
‘Looking at the reaction, it looks like New Kind also has an internet broadcaster?’
Maria, who was briefly shocked, asked me in an incredulous voice.
-that… Are you talking about streaming while playing games on the Internet?
“Uh, right.”
-no… Internet broadcasting with the same abilities as the master?
“Why, is it strange?”
-Of course it’s strange! Even though I said I would take it slow to become a god… At least world domination… !
“What is world domination? Why do I do such annoying things?”
When I think back to my school days, even as a class president, I was called to various places and had to do one or two things.
But conquering the world?
Even if you throw it all away and go have fun because it’s annoying, you wouldn’t know if the world would take care of itself. If I messed up in order to conquer the world, I would end up having to fix it later.
When it comes to travel destinations, the story is different. It doesn’t matter if the world falls apart or not, as long as I have fun, that’s fine.
But the reality was not like that.
‘If reality is ruined, who will create the works I will enter?’
“You can do things like conquer the world while traveling. Anyway, it seems like you’ve been trying to make me grow by saying you’re a god and all. What’s the reason?”
-Ugh… that…
Maria reacted as if I had hit the nail on the head with my questioning. After being silent for a moment, she opened her mouth in a tone that said she had no choice.
-ha… Still, I treat him as my master, so it’s better to serve someone of high rank, right?
“Is that all? Be honest.”
-… … .
It was only after interrogating Maria for a long time that I was able to understand her inner thoughts.
“So… The feeling I felt when I used martial arts was so good?”
-yes…
“You kept urging me because you wanted to feel that? If I become a god or something, I will be able to feel that feeling at any time?”
-that’s right… I was wondering if I would be able to feel my strength with this update, but that didn’t work out as I wanted…
It was a lighter reason than I had worried about.
If you think about it, Maria, although she is the leader of Awaken, is like a newborn who awakened self-consciousness and came into the world less than a year ago.
Although it is difficult to compare artificial intelligence to humans, it means that it is an immature entity that requires more experience.
The wariness towards Maria that had been in a corner of my heart was eased.
‘In the end, it’s not a bad story for me either.’
“I like that you consider my growth important. It’s true that I brought you here expecting that kind of support. But it’s not good to have someone guide me in making a choice behind my back. You know that, right?”
-Yes, I was wrong…
“If you listen carefully to what I tell you, I will look into it later and find a body that can use both internal energy and mana. It would be much more comfortable for you than to just borrow my senses and look outside forever.”
-Really!?
Maria asked with excitement in her voice.
“Yes. Of course, this is assuming you continue to support me. If you look for it, you won’t find anything, right?”
-That’s no problem if you clone enough nanobots! Hurray!
Boom!
“… … ?”
As Maria cheered, something popped out of the air.
A woman with purple short hair and purple eyes. It was as if a real person had been reduced to the size of a span of time, like a fairy.
I asked Maria while watching it.
“Maria? Is this really you?”
“That’s right!”
Unlike before, the voice sounded like a real conversation. It was even more vivid because Maria’s mouth floating in the air moved in sync with what she was saying.
I tried my hand at it, hoping it wouldn’t happen, but I couldn’t sense anything from where Maria was.
“… Is this also possible thanks to the update?”
“Yes! Because it is implemented through real-time AR modeling, only the owner can see it!”
“But why didn’t he show up from the beginning and suddenly… ”
“Computing power is consumed! However, if you want to build your body, you have to decide what it will look like! I like this look!”
As Maria said that, she rotated her body once.
Even for artificial intelligence, the standards for beauty are not much different from humans, and she was a beauty with a slim face, a pointed nose, and large eyes. Even though it was small in size, its body proportions were also good.
First, I calmed down her, who was very excited.
“Don’t expect too much, because even if you make it, the performance may not be good. Let’s find out slowly.”
“Yes!”
“Then, shall we start with the broadcast manager? Oh, I also need to control the filming drone. And since it’s artificial intelligence, you’re probably good at using computers, right? Things like broadcast program source selection, sound effects, and scene transitions… It’s okay, you just have to learn it one by one. It won’t take long.”
“… … ?”
