– hi!
Coveted black bobbed hair. Intricate facial features. The face of the hologram woman was very similar to the face of a struggling curiosity.
However, the fluttering curiosity had a somewhat decadent and bewitching atmosphere, but the sparkling eyes and smile of the hologram woman in front of him were full of lively playfulness.
Dacia asked me with a slight frown.
“Can’t you just hit one…?”
I fully sympathized with her feelings.
“It probably won’t do you any good.”
The hologram woman spat out her own words in a playful tone as we chatted.
– My name is ‘Ceylon’, the best craftsman in the empire! To be precise, it’s a hologram made by ‘Ceylon’! It’s trivial, so I’ll just get over it! Don’t stand there, come in quickly!
Following the Gatling Gun, is it an artificial intelligence hologram? How the hell did the ancient empire become a country in the past?
Dacia leaned against me and stared at the hologram.
“Why do I feel so bad for that woman?”
“I fully understand. But since I can’t stand here forever, let’s go in quickly. Could you walk alone?”
“Wait.”
At my question, Dacia strained her legs and tried to stand alone, then stumbled again. I quickly picked her up again and smiled.
“There is no need to overdo it.”
Very slightly hot cheeks. Dacia did not dare to meet my eyes and gave a small answer while avoiding her gaze.
“Then I’ll ask you…”
‘Kill and kill…’
My mother, who was standing next to me, pursed her lips, followed Dakia’s words, and showed a dissatisfied expression. Of course, knowing Dakia’s condition, my mother didn’t bother telling me to let go of Dakia right away. I gently patted my mother’s head, who had grown up.
And then.
– hi! I am ‘Ceylon’, the greatest craftsman of the empire! To be precise, it’s a hologram made by ‘Ceylon’! It’s trivial, so I’ll just get over it! Don’t stand there, come in quickly!
The hologram repeated the same words.
From those words, I realized a possibility. The possibility that this hologram is not driven by artificial intelligence.
“Wait a minute. Let’s wait here for a moment.”
“yes?”
“It’s because there’s something I want to check.”
As we stood still and stared at the hologram woman, the hologram Ceylon started chattering again a little later.
– hi! I am ‘Ceylon’, the greatest craftsman of the empire! Exactly…
I realized that this hologram is not artificial intelligence in the true sense of the word, it is just playing the video recorded by Ceylon according to the algorithm.
This conversation is going to be boring.
Dacia tilted her head while looking at the hologram Ceylon.
“Something seems to be broken.”
“It’s because we didn’t go inside. Let’s go inside.”
“yes!”
As we entered the door, the holographic Ceylon finally spoke the following conversation.
– I’m so glad you came this far through the guardians I made!
But if you’re talking to an algorithm, would you mind answering a simple question?
I immediately confirmed my doubts.
“Why did you ask the last question? That question for which the name ‘Elisha’ is the correct answer.”
Hologram Ceylon stopped talking about welcome and started answering my question. Ceylon grinned.
– My mother’s name! You must be wondering why I asked that! That’s very simple! I left the last ‘key’ to my mother! lets think! Someone entered this place with a ‘key’, but you don’t know my mother’s name?
Ceylon, who paused for a moment, smiled eerily. The mischievousness so far is a smile that can’t be found anywhere else.
– Is there any reason I should keep them alive?
If I hadn’t guessed the name, I would have been in real trouble. I let out a big sigh of relief. I walked down the cozy hallway following the humming hologram.
At the end of that, the place we arrived at was a cozy mansion. Hologram Ceylon beckoned lightly, and the door opened by itself. As we entered the house after her, Ceylon turned to us and said.
– It must have been hard to come this far! Let’s talk after soaking ourselves in warm water!
As Ceylon pretended to bump his palms, the wall cracked and a metal hand came out carrying a basket.
What was in the basket were towels and shower items with an extremely modern design.
– There are separate baths for men and women! But if you want to have a mixed bath, go in together! Do whatever you feel like! Oh right. If you put your clothes in the basket in the changing room, I’ll wash them quickly and return them to you!
‘killing!’
At that, my mother quickly returned to her hand and landed on my palm. I asked Dakia, putting my mother’s hand in my breast pocket.
“What would you like?”
Dacia laughed bitterly when she saw her clothes, once soaked with sweat and covered in dust.
“I want to wash once. I’m really embarrassed right now.”
“Can you walk alone?”
“I’m much better now than before.”
She staggered somehow, barely standing still. I was a little worried if I was really okay, but I couldn’t help it because I couldn’t wash it myself.
I took the basket, grabbed my shower supplies, and handed the basket to Dacia.
“Do you know how to use this?”
Dakia narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the ancient words written on the surface of the shower products, then nodded.
“The explanation is well written, so I think there will be no problem.”
“I’m glad.”
When we asked where the bath was, Ceylon’s hologram split in two and began guiding us.
The bath was extremely huge and filled with freshly filled warm water. After soaking in hot water for the first time in a while, I enjoyed the comfort of hot water.
‘ㅅ…A…L…H…ㅐ…’
The mother, who was sitting on the floor of the hot tub in the shape of a hand, enjoyed the hot water to the fullest with a very languid voice.
I closed my eyes tightly and spat out the word that I must say in the hot bath.
“Oh, that’s really cool.”
***
Red cheeks and dry hair that haven’t cooled down yet. Dakia, lightly dressed, approached me with steam blowing from her whole body. She smiled broadly and sat down in the chair next to me.
“You came out early. Anyway, the bath here is really nice. It felt like my fatigue was completely gone!”
“Me too. Oh, you can eat this. The hologram took care of it.”
I handed the banana milk that the metal arms gave me to Dacia. Dakia took a sip of the banana milk from the cup and smiled.
“This is really good! I know I shouldn’t be like this, but I think my resentment towards Ceylon, who created this ruin, has already been half blown away.”
Honestly, so did I.
Ceylon popped up in front of us as we sat on a soft chair and enjoyed the drowsiness.
– Did you get a good rest? I’ve been collecting the things you guys dropped on my way here, so why don’t you take a look? I even roughly repaired what was broken!
dropped? There was nothing like that.
I knew right away what I had dropped when I saw the object being thrown by a mechanical arm protruding from the wall.
A pure white ancient artifact ring. What the mechanical arm held out was the artifact Master had put on my left hand.
It didn’t completely disappear due to the reaction of the ‘Sword of Corruption’. Or was it that the hologram repaired and handed over what was almost broken?
I took the ring and put it back on my left index finger. Thankfully, I won’t be scolded later for breaking the ring.
– If you have enough rest, will you follow me for a second? Get the goods first and rest!
compensation. I turned my head and looked at Dakia at the story that made my heart flutter just by hearing it.
“How about taking a break after receiving the goods?”
Dakia, who was sleeping with her eyes wide open, replied in a languid voice.
“Honestly, right now I feel like I want to move after sleeping in a soft bed, but if I don’t follow you, I’ll be there all day saying the same thing, right?”
She rubbed her eyes and jumped up from her seat.
“Hurry up and go to sleep!”
I smiled and nodded and got up from my seat.
“Let me guide you.”
– huh! Follow me!
As we followed the hologram Ceylon, the hologram guided us underground. As we walked down the stairs and descended one floor, a huge space greeted us. The space lined with all sorts of work tools looked more like a ‘place to create rewards’ than a room where rewards were prepared.
Ceylon looked at me and Dakia and asked.
– So, the two of you who will have my ‘No. 1’ work…
‘Kill!’
As soon as my mother came out of my arms in human form, Ceylon changed her words.
– … which of the three?
Dacia grinned and poked me in the side. When I looked at her, she looked at me with pure eyes without any greed and said playfully.
“Say, ‘I am the owner of that thing!'”
I bowed my head lightly to express my gratitude and said to Ceylon.
“I will have the number one piece.”
– okay! okay! But the other ‘two’ will be sad if they go empty-handed, right? I’ll reward you two with a custom-made separately, so follow ‘me’!
Ceylon split into three and began guiding her mother and Dakia. The fact that my mother came out of my arms was a real act of ‘God’.
‘killing!’
Mother smiled broadly and followed the hologram Ceylon. I was a little anxious because my mother was away from me, but it was tolerable because it was a huge space, not a space covered by a wall, and I could see my mother with my eyes when I turned my head.
– Hurry up and follow me!
I moved along the hologram Ceylon assigned to me. After walking for a while, Ceylon extended a finger and pointed at something.
– Voila! This is the last piece I made, ‘#1’!
A black bracelet was placed where she pointed.
A very simple metal bracelet to be called the last piece.
Ceylon’s hologram smiled broadly at me.
– Hurry up and put it on! It’s sure to be a lot of fun! It would be better to wear it on the side of the hand that you use often when wearing it!
I put the black bracelet on my right wrist as she said. When I put on the bracelet, it adjusted the size as if I had waited and stuck to my right wrist.
hooked
Before I even felt the pain, something sharp pierced my wrist. Ceylon’s voice rang in my ears.
– Don’t be surprised! Because you are registering! It will sting a little!
After a while, the feeling of the needle piercing my wrist disappeared. Ceylon’s hologram smiled and said to me.
– Do you want to press the button on the bracelet while shouting ‘Activate!’? Absolutely out loud!
You do something very embarrassing. really.
“Activate…”
I muttered softly as I pressed the button on my bracelet.
clap clap clap.
The change was instantaneous. The moment I pressed the button, metals of unknown origin came out of the black bracelet and wrapped around my right arm, taking the form of armor. The extension of the black metal stopped only after I correctly constructed the pauldron covering my right shoulder.
I lightly moved my armored hand. The black metal armor that moved smoothly moved very lightly and smoothly, as if it were alive.
I really like this.
As I opened and closed my fingers, a squeak of laughter erupted.
– Kyahahaha! Didn’t I really press the button while shouting ‘Operate!’? huh? In fact, the first operation is just a button press!
I answered the giggling hologram in a gruff voice.
“I didn’t say it out loud.”
Of course, the hologram, which only performed pre-programmed actions, understood my answer and did not stop laughing. She laughed for a while longer before opening her mouth as she pretended to wipe away her tears.
– Sorry! did i laugh too much I’ll apologize if I’ve offended you, so take a look!
She laughed playfully again.
– In fact, no matter what, you have no choice but to forgive me because you have to listen to me explain the function of ‘Work No. 1’!
