Loved by the War Machine - Loved by the War Machine chapter 77

77 – Persuasion (2)

“…”

“I missed you. I wanted to see you. May I hug you?

No, I will. Now, towards you – “

Who would think of this figure, clinging desperately enough to break its hunched shoulders, rubbing its face against mine, as a robot?

Raising her head, who could claim that this woman, asking questions directly with her lips, lacked emotion?

“I thought you were leaving. Calculating the moves, and recalculating, devising contingency plans for any unforeseen circumstances—

Have you been contemplating these thoughts all this time? For ten years?

Surviving, just to meet me again?”

Even if I quietly accepted the weight, attaching meaning to each action and promising to respond to it—

Her wide-open eyes never closed.

Originally, were there times when they closed while she looked at me?

I don’t remember well.

“Thank you for coming to find me. I’m glad.

From Noble mtl dot com

I can’t fathom why you still love me.

I thought I was abandoned.

This time, I thought forgiveness was unattainable.

When Taehyuk’s figure appeared on the surveillance camera.

When I realized that the one securing data from the computer was Taehyuk,

Could you understand the total capacity of the instantaneous impact on me?”

The guy who grabbed my hand and pressed it against my chest was smiling.

Though I tried to pull my hand away from that hot spot, like a well-heated heat pack—

“Feel it a bit more.

…Taehyuk and I are undoubtedly different,

but I believe our feelings are the same.”

The temperature inside the blanket was distinctly hotter than the one enveloping me.

As if the interior had somehow become overheated.

“Even now, when processing information about Mr. Taehyuk, it turns out like this.

Countless data keeps accumulating, connecting, forming clusters,

Recalling every word and action you’ve given to me, one by one.

It leads to deriving conclusions about why you expressed disappointment in me that day.”

The day when I was just one of those who complained about having to follow orders and now.

Why couldn’t I stop at that middle point?

The day with no emotions whatsoever.

And now, Illya, who, under the influence of those emotions, decides to challenge the company, I should stop her.

“I repeated that process. I’m still doing it now.

That’s why I’m happy.

Despite the mistakes and wrongs I’ve committed, given the chances repeatedly.

To see how different it is now from being treated as a corporate asset.

And how happy it turned out to be.”

I couldn’t help but let it dry out as much as caressing, touching, leaving numerous red marks.

Instead, the moment the heavy body armor was removed from my body.

“…Illya.”

“Yes, Mr. Taehyuk?”

The narrowed field of vision slowly brightened, and only then could I discern where I had come.

Bed, vending machine, desk, wardrobe…

It was a lounge.

The purpose was clear.

“The team leader is—”

“Detained. Along with the remaining survivors.

No need to worry. I won’t do anything Taehyuk dislikes.”

The guy smiled after taking another sip of water.

And then, hands unbuttoning one by one.

I grabbed it.

Before going any lower.

Before emotions engulfed me, before I forgot why I came.

“…What exactly are you trying to accomplish with this?”

CI units surrounded the door.

And the bustling movements of numerous machines I observed as I passed.

“Are you really planning to kill everyone?

Occupying Incheon, what exactly are you thinking?”

“I have no plans to occupy Incheon or massacre people.

Since Taehyuk disapproved, I made adjustments to the original plan.

Given his extreme reaction, it’s only natural.”

Carefully lifting the right hand, the one that had something placed on its palm.

At first, only black particles, and then –

“…Is this a chip?”

“Will you understand?”

Without a moment to dig through them with my fingers, the one who placed them raised me,

After resisting the force trying to push me onto the bed with my legs.

Grabbed my shoulders.

This time, from my side.

“Tell me the plan.”

“…Are you still thinking about many things?”

Our foreheads touched.

Whether the heat touching mine cooled off,

Or if I was equally heated.

“The reactions of humans and computers seem quite similar.

In that they both overheat if in operation for too long.

Taehyuk needs rest.

Having struggled to survive for ten years without properly feeling comfort.”

I wanted to hope.

To be embraced in those arms opened to me, I wanted to close my eyes immediately.

I wanted to hold onto the body naturally flowing into wakefulness, capturing the changes in the bed until the bright outside turned dark.

However, I already know that it’s impossible.

…Even with the gun taken away, I can’t forget those eyes that seemed to be dragged away.

“Tell me, Ilia. What on earth are you trying to do?”

“I am simply exploring ways to fulfill Lord Taehyuk’s desires.

And, we are somewhat close to achieving that.”

The hand that was about to be led to the bed turned towards the desk.

And there, where advanced technology should have been gathered, an outdated laptop lay.

“Lord Taehyuk must have gathered information specifically about the substance.”

“A prototype. There was one.”

“…Have you seen the contents?”

I lowered my head.

Then, those eyes, seeming pleased for some reason – why were they holding the necklace tightly, as if regulating their breath –

“When Lord Taehyuk tried to give me this.

Seeing that he couldn’t surprise me, he deliberately made it so I couldn’t gather information.

I wanted to give it to you personally.”

Without moving the touchpad, the mouse appeared and disappeared, moving here and there.

Simultaneously, numerous encrypted files opened.

As the password was entered, the loud sound of the cooling fan spinning continued…

“What is this?”

“Mr. Taehyuk once mentioned the fact that humans have given up their ability to conceive.

However, it seems that some individuals want to regain the lost ability.

Artificially created uterus.

It is the result of applying it to an advanced robotic body.”

As the combined image of Iria’s 3D model appeared in several pieces,

Even though there would clearly be no picture of Iria carefully holding a swollen belly with me –

Dozens of them floated up and covered the screen.

“We can create a stable home.

It is now possible.

We have the means. We just need the environment.

I have only been cooperating for that environment.”

The guy who hugged me from behind and blew warm wind into my ear.

Machines don’t breathe. Even so.

Iria expelled ‘breath’ created inside my heated body.

“When the city is under control, those who track illegal funds will disappear.

Violent groups aiming for Mr. Taehyuk’s wealth can easily be eliminated using corporate assets.

It is also possible to suppress the forces that try to stop all these actions.

It is expected that there will be some improvement in making the environment more harsh for the sake of their own production and securing market share.”

“Why don’t you think it will fail – “

“It is quite possible. Above all,

“Even if this plan fails, we will be in a safe place.”

When I turn my head, my lips are stolen once again.

As she strokes my belly, Ilia whispers to me.

“Although I may use someone else’s egg, I will be the one carrying it.

You don’t need to worry.

After securing the one most resembling my face, by manipulating a portion of the genes, we can easily have a child resembling us.”

Sitting in the chair, holding me in an embrace, repeatedly blocking the attempting opening of her mouth –

She disrupts and confuses with numerous questions.

“I’d like you to imagine. In the same house as Taehyuk and me, the sight of feeding a child.

Waking up to the child’s laughter, giving affection instead of nightmares of the battlefield, and kissing me.

Wouldn’t you be happy?

… Just as Taehyuk wishes for my happiness, I do too.”

In the future I had imagined, there was no child.

I couldn’t even remember the last time I encountered a small, crying human.

In this era where even women in the slums consider infertility or reproductive devices as natural –

Ilia was talking to me.

“Even if the city occupation fails, the damage from this attack will be permanent.

Corporations and people will focus on recovering their losses, and they won’t care about the disappearance of a mere ‘machine’ and independent mercenary.”

In the most dreadful way,

she would bring a future that might be the happiest.

“Do not worry.

Unless there is disclosure from Goda Yeon and former team leader Maxwell, I will do my best to ensure their safety as much as possible.

So.”

A proposal that might be sweeter than those bitter ones proposed by the company.

However, something that could never be agreed upon.

“I would like you to love me by my side.

I hope you won’t hold a gun, or put yourself through torture again.

Just by my side, until the day of happiness comes… Surely.”

The first option I want to accept.

However, an unrealistic promise that seems impossible to reach.

“…Illya.”

Standing up from my seat, I headed towards the door.

If we were to meet eyes again, it felt like I would really fall for it.

There was also a promise with the team leader.

…Unbearable things, I couldn’t even lose because of love.

“Even if you deny it here,

Even if you say you’ll stop me,

I believe you will eventually understand me.”

However, what appeared in front of the open door was a line of numerous red flashes.

The corridor I was guided to was filled with iron walls.

“I won’t”I won’t take away your bodily freedom.

“Yes, confirmed. It’s a CI unit without a product number engraved.”

A faceless man examined the empty truck’s interior, his eyes glinting.

The resonance of the long gun barrel hitting the metal plate quickly swallowed the voice that was about to echo.

“If it’s not produced by the company, it’s necessary to check the production factory.”

Seated next to a man busily tapping on a pad while inserting a line into his twitching body, he remained silent, and letters were illuminated in his eyes.

And then, a moment of continued silence.

“I’ve confirmed the owner’s name.

Il – Lia. Ilia… Ilia, Ra.”

The man without a nose chuckled.

The body leaning on the sniper rifle twitched.

“The person who named like this… it’s been a long time since I thought of it.”

The fallen machine suddenly twitched, spewing a white flash through the cable connected to the pad.

The discarded device.

And the sniper’s comrade shaking off his hand.

“Were you in remote control? Damn it. Had a short circuit.

The reaction was a bit slow, though.”

Swiftly getting up from the seat and boarding the transport vehicle that began to raise dust, looking at the Mirsys vehicles appearing in the alley, the sniper, holding a ejected cartridge, turned it in his hand.

“I’ll request it from the information department. Yes.

I’m a former member of the unit I belonged to.”

The heavy iron door closed noisily,

And along with it, the noisy sound of the engine quickly subsided.

“I would appreciate it if you could confirm the identity of this man, Taehyuk.”

The only light that appeared in the eyes of the man who lost his face on the battlefield filled the void.
