Chapter 127
Rintaro's love with the scalpel
"Rintaro."
Fuyuki's voice deepened along with his gaze. It was the address that Mori Ougai had been hoping for, but in this situation, it only brought him murderous intent.
At the same time, the scalpel seemed to move.
Fuyuki's gaze swept over it instantly, without lingering, as if he hadn't seen it at all.
Mori Ougai remained silent. He smiled as he pierced the head of the humanoid data fluid beside him. No blood stained his hand, yet it still inexplicably carried a bloody scent.
He seemed to think that an ordinary young girl posed no threat to him, but his eyes grew increasingly wary.
Fuyuki stared at him, the power that had been dissipating within her body beginning to gather again; it seemed she had been resting for quite some time…
In a short while, with the help of her main body, the remaining power had become abundant. Even though she was still exhausted, she had regained the strength to fight and the ability to control her spiritual power.
but.
She was just one opportunity away.
Fuyuki sighed helplessly; they still hadn't found it.
The portal from the previous void to this rift space has appeared, but the portal from here to the correct space has not yet appeared.
Uncontrolled coincidences and predictions, they simply propelled these coincidences forward.
Fuyuki didn't want to get involved with this wicked man. Let him scheme all he wanted; no matter how much she did, she couldn't stop him from plotting.
Moreover, in the future of the main world that she obtained, this guy truly took his words as a slave of the organization to the extreme.
He was both mad and rational, devoted and sacrificial; everything came together in this contradictory construct.
He controls everything, he stops everything, and even uses himself as a bargaining chip.
Atsushi Nakajima...
He also wanted to take advantage of it.
He was a young man who initially came into the public eye as the subject of a bounty of 7 billion.
But the balance also reduced the competition among the three parties for him.
With only Mori Ōgai present, knowing the advantages of having this child, it became almost inevitable that he would want it.
Annoyed.
The more Dongshu thought about it, the more complicated it became, almost to the point of getting stuck in a rut.
"Oh, so Fuyuki is finally willing to call me that?" Mori Ougai wiped his eyes, his voice filled with emotion, "I've been waiting for this for so long."
The lovely little girl called him by an affectionate nickname.
Really—
Kawaii-ne~
A familiar smile curled at the corners of his lips, and Mori Ougai's eyes turned crazed.
The scalpel in his hand flickered and blurred for a moment before returning to its original state; the sharp blade meant to save lives was now being used in combat.
It relentlessly robs the data fluids of their fighting power, causing them to fall to the ground little by little.
It is the sword of justice.
Because it killed the enemy.
It was held tightly in its master's palm, the blade trembling, and the data within it was momentarily obscured by the blurring of the battle.
【Lintaro. 】
There was no movement outside Morio, except that Alice, who was one with him, suddenly moved closer to Fuyuki.
He glanced at it but didn't pay much attention. Alice was his superpower, and he wasn't worried about losing control.
【Lintaro. 】
Seemingly because there was no response, the voice calling him this time clearly carried a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Yes, I'm here." Mori Ōgai's voice was like a gentle breeze, so tender it was almost dripping with warmth.
His purple eyes were clear and beautiful, like amethyst, and when they were filled with emotion, they were even more captivating.
"Hmph, you didn't even respond to me right away." Having received a satisfactory answer, the androgynous voice became coquettish, muttering, "I was the one who protected you at the last moment, and... and protected those insignificant things too."
"I listen to you so much, I treat you so well, why don't you pay more attention to me..." It became angrier as it spoke, its body trembling more, shifting from Mori Ōgai's palm.
The blade, which should have easily sliced through a fatal spot, missed its target. Mori Ougai frowned instantly, but a smile played on his lips as he looked at the disobedient weapon.
"Good child, haven't I been using you all along? You are my sharpest weapon, and now..." He glanced meaningfully at Alice, who had angrily thrown herself into Fuyuki's arms, "Even Alice isn't as powerful as you."
Thinking that Alice had never entered a fighting state since he appeared, Scalpel paused for a moment.
But she persisted, whining: "Hmph, it's all your fault for making me so insecure. A lover shouldn't make their partner feel sad or anxious. Rintarō, you really should learn more."
"Yes, yes, I know. I will give you everything and become your slave, and you will give me anything I need." Mori Ougai replied perfunctorily, outwardly still appearing deeply affectionate.
Right, darling?
The voice grew excited: "Of course, as lovers, we should give to each other and be tolerant of each other. Rintarō, I love you so much, and you love me just as much, that's wonderful."
Very emotional.
On the other side, Fuyuki blinked.
She seemed to have heard something strange...?
Wow.
OoO
Her eyes widened and her mouth gaped open.
Uncle Sen and...that knife?
That's so exciting!
The world has finally gone mad.
Although I knew DataFlow was up to something, I didn't expect them to be involved in inhuman romance this time.
No wonder everyone reacted so strongly and strangely when I called him "Rin-taro"; it turns out the secret was hidden there.
Fuyuki shifted her gaze and refocused her attention on Alice. The girl, who had rushed into her arms along with Nakajima Atsushi, concealed her expression, but from her perspective, it wasn't hard to see the smugness on her face.
It's like finishing a satisfying crayon drawing, like a little cat, cute and cunning.
Fuyuki didn't know why she could hear the scalpel and Mori Ougai's voice communicating. She cleared her mind and eliminated all the negative emotions that had surged up before.
Then, happily and simply, I pasted on the lovely Alice.
...So, Alice's appearance is Mori's true inner self, right?
Why did I show that in front of her?
I want to tell her.
Or perhaps it was because they were so close that she could hear their conversation?
As her guesses and doubts grew, Dongshu blinked, still feeling that something was amiss.
The scalpel's tone suggests that it was never human to begin with, rather than using Mori Ōgai's weapon form to try and get closer to him.
Then, he saved Mori Ougai, and saved some insignificant things... Wow, that's a lot of information.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that it was this scalpel that brought Mori Ōgai and Alice here, a place it considered safe.
No.
Dongshu scanned the surrounding flow of data.
Although its combat effectiveness is not high, it is not safe to say that level.
This place was at least safe before; there wasn't always so much hostile data here.
Therefore, the data fluid who claims to be a lover brought Mori Ōgai here.
And those insignificant things.
It's highly likely that it's another member of the Port Mafia.
People, events, and things.
I just don't know if only people were left.
The amount of information is enormous.
Fuyuki quickly absorbed the intelligence that Mori Ougai had intentionally thrown out.
interesting.
She might be able to do something more useful next.
Intelligence is a truly crucial and valuable resource.
well.
Fuyuki patted Alice on the head, which earned her a disgruntled glare. Alice smiled innocently.
Alice is so cute that you wouldn't feel any pain even if you put her in your eyes.
It cannot be hated, cannot be discarded, can only be held in the palm of one's hand.
Such an adorable superpower.
How come there's such a powerful leader/master?
Mori Ougai looks great in black.
A computer-like brain is indeed well-suited to a cold, sharp blade as a lover.
This must be the answer that the data fluid analysis came up with after analyzing this person.
only.
A leader like him is not suited to be a lover.
Cunning and deceit are the true components of the deep affection he bestows upon his outward appearance.
Without a doubt.
Fuyuki looked at the man who had completely calmed the scalpel.
She even used a handkerchief, from who-knows-where, to carefully wipe away all traces from the clean scalpel.
Attentive, affectionate, compliant... she's incredibly charming.
Is this the lover persona that Mori Ōgai chose for this scalpel?
She learned it.
Fuyuki pushed Alice away and casually shoved Nakajima Atsushi into her arms.
The white scarf was left on her alone as she withdrew.
With a gentle and sweet smile: "Alice-chan, could you please take care of the adorable Atsushi-kun?"
Alice stomped her foot: "I know, really, is Fuyuki-chan going to become an annoying adult too?"
"How could that be?" Fuyuki asked, troubled. She twisted her slender wrist. "I'm sure I'll become an adult that kids love."
Otherwise, she would never have grown up.
“Like right now, Alice-chan really likes me, doesn’t she?” she said with great confidence.
Fuyuki leaned closer, patted the bewildered Nakajima Atsushi, pressed the only real child present down slightly, and then affectionately put his arm around Alice's shoulder.
"Alice, I like Alice very much too."
Her smile was bright, her tone sincere, and every word she spoke was filled with genuine emotion.
The friendship that the two little girls had built could not be easily broken by the statement that Alice had superpowers.
Fuyuki once enjoyed days of sharing sweets and having fun with the other person, even though those days were all part of Mori Ōgai's calculations.
but.
As expected, she still really enjoyed sharing her favorite sweets with Alice, the angel who always had someone.
Alice froze, her blue eyes fixed on the spot.
A familiar smile.
It was Fuyuki's smile.
—Alice-chan, let's play together next time too!
--Um!
They had made that promise countless times.
"...I like Fuyuki."
It wasn't Rintaro's scheme; Alice, whose entire program was pre-designed, genuinely liked her friend named "Fuyuki."
A pure and unforgettable friendship.
She hugged the child entrusted to her by her friend tightly, vowing, "I will definitely protect this guy. Fuyuki-chan, do whatever you want!"
Alice is so imposing!
Dongshu lowered his eyes, and the smile on his lips faded slightly.
【Aaaaaah—Alice, Alice, Alice, it's you too! Why do you like that guy? You should only like me!】
As expected.
The scalpel has gone mad.
【Rintaro, Rintaro! 】
It's so noisy.
"stable."
The blue tsukumogami was already ready, its beautiful blade instantly withdrawing from the confrontation with the data fluid.
His gaze was sharp, and he moved instantly at the command of the Saniwa wearing a white scarf.
"Let's do it."
[Author's Note]
Although they caused trouble, they didn't actually make Mori-san fall in love. [doge emoji with rose in hand]
Fuyuki: [Shoves Atsuto into Alice's arms] [Meaningfully] Alice-chan, this is our very important little brother (child), you must treat him well! [Sobbing]
Alice: [Tsundere but touched] Don't worry, Fuyuki-chan, I will definitely complete the mission!
... (not really)
