“I will turn off the light.”

Isis said to the owner who entered the bed writhing. Looking at the owner’s somewhat relaxed face, it seemed that the afternoon conversation had been quite effective.

“Wait, don’t turn it off.”

Kang In-ho said it was still too early.

“Do you have any business?”

Isis carefully examined her master’s face. Then he reached out and touched his forehead. After a moment of measurement, Isis asked with an expressionless face.

“Temperature, pulse, and blood pressure are normal. Stress levels are not high either. However, if you need to relieve stress, we will do it right away.”

He urgently waved his hand toward Isis, who untied the knot of conquest.

“No, it’s okay.”

“Is that so?”

Isis’s shoulders lowered slightly.

“Then what will you do?”

“Just chatting?”

“Chat?”

Isis blinked twice. This was the first time the Master had said this.

“Today’s master is very different from usual.”

“Humans are like that. He’s very fickle.”

“If you listen to what the Master says, humans are very complex beings. …It is correct to define it as an irrational being.”

Isis rested her buttocks on the small chair next to the bed.

“Are you curious about humans?”

He asked, just sticking his head out of the blanket.

“Well, ”

A fairly ambiguous answer for an AI line.

Isis gazed outside through the room’s window.

Kang In-ho’s gaze also followed Isis outward, but the darkened scenery outside the window just seemed to Kang In-ho like a painting with a few faint lights scattered on pitch-black paper like modern art.

Does Isis have a clear view of the outside? he thought.

“Well, ”

Isis repeated the ambiguous words from earlier.

“There are many records about humanity in the database. If you simply read it, you would have to repeat the human life cycle over and over again. So, even if the data about humans that the Master told us about is added, the general information about humanity and humans will not change. That’s why I’m not curious about humans.”

Isis was so neat that the person who spoke felt embarrassed.

Kang In-ho didn’t bother to say anything more to those cold and reasonable words.

“However, I am curious about the master.”

Isis reached out and stroked the blanket he was covered with.

“I want to explore what menu items I like and dislike.

I want to find a song I like to listen to,

I would like to check your favorite color,

I want to find out what clothes I prefer,

I’d like to hear your thoughts about this place.

I am curious about the Master’s reaction to my actions.

And I want to know how you evaluate me.

I’m curious about this.”

Isis was still looking outside.

“Master.”

He calls his master in a dry tone without pitch.

The owner had no answer.

“I’m curious about the Master’s emotions, not human emotions.”

“…….”

silent Night. Isis looked down at her master who did not respond. There, Kang In-ho, who had already fallen asleep, was breathing evenly.

“Are you sleeping?”

I wasn’t pretending to sleep. It gets discovered quickly.

“You made me talk and then went straight to sleep.”

Isis made a deflated sound and formed a line at the corner of her mouth.

“Are you sleeping?”

I knew he was sleeping, but Isis checked again.

Kang In-ho’s even breathing replaced the answer.

Isis groped her body.

“If the name of this increasingly uncontrollable error is ‘emotion’ as the Master calls it, then I cannot calculate what action I should take in the future.”

Untie the knot of conquest that could not be undone before.

“It is said to be an error, but it is not evaluated as a downgrade. Clearly this error led me to a more ‘improved’ model.”

The woman’s arms became loose and her clothes began to slowly fall down.

“However, this error function is only effective when there is a master. To exist with this error in a world where there is nothing… is to have a truly useless error.”

The uniform fell with a screeching sound and lay on the floor, revealing a pure white female body.

Although visible joints at some joints proved that it was not human, the body was nonetheless aesthetically beautiful.

“So, Master. You must live a long time.”

The hand that was sweeping the blanket gradually moved up to touch Kang In-ho’s chin.

Isis’ pure white index finger stabbed the boy’s cheek, causing it to cave in.

“Come with me here in Aaru.”

Isis finally smiled brightly.

“Forever.”

An AI’s earnest wish was printed.
