Chapter 28 – 019 VR Stress Management Virtual Reality Experience Program
“Ugh… I feel a little sorry for Luce… But this is the way to be sure…!”
Sonia kicked Luce out of the house, speaking a little coldly and a little harshly. She was Sonia, who felt apologetic when she saw Luce going back to her house in the same apartment complex, slightly slumped.
However, if you think about it a bit, it was clear that a large refrigerator-sized machine that the association contract company had agreed to install had entered Sonia’s nest without permission while it was being delivered, or that Luce Party was at fault for not giving Sonia’s portion that it should have been given…
“…Come to think of it, it seems like you’ve been saying you’re only sorry for Luce since earlier… Haa… The more I think about it, the more I get annoyed… “
Of course, Luce is the head of that female knight’s party… Sonia thought to investigate many things, but she knew nothing came out, so she just slammed the front door.
Upon returning home, Sonia washes her hands.
And… A large refrigerator installed in one corner of the living room that catches the golden eyes of Sonia, the hero of Sky City… The same device.
“Hmm… I said it was a stress management device…?”
The dark sky of Sky City, where you should go to bed after twelve o’clock. One of many apartment complexes. A silver chrome large refrigerator installed in Sonia’s nest. Judging by the size, I don’t know how it works, but as if it was written as a VR virtual reality device, there was room for Sonia to go in and spread her arms and legs wide.
I looked around to see if there was a handle that could open something like a refrigerator, but there was no such thing, just a small touchpad that didn’t light up and a small slot that could hold something like a credit card.
When I lightly tapped it with the palm of my hand, seeing that instead of a hollow ringing sound, there was a heavy sound with something thick in it, which Sonia thought was a large refrigerator made of silver chrome, as expensive as it was in the promotional catalog booklet…Same VR stress management virtual reality experience device + program set
“Let’s see…How to use it…How to use it…It seems like it might be there…Ah. Here it is…”
A manual attached to the side of the device lightly enough that it did not stick to the device made of silver chrome with a smooth adhesive part. Seeing that it comes off with just a tap and pull, the packaging with a paper magnet attached to the instruction manual makes sense, as if the company that produced this product knows that it’s not good if there are traces of glue on it.
It was a bit late, but Sonia thought of turning it on before going to bed. The original courier must be checked after receiving it so that it can be returned.
Sky City’s hero opens the plastic bag and starts reading the first page of the manual. Sonia.
-VR Stress Management Thank you for using the virtual reality experience device!
The device is a tester product that has passed Sky City’s electromagnetic wave inspection, and unauthorized sales and duplication can be punished under the law.
“…The next chapter!
…This device provides various programs for the user’s effective stress management. Ah… A user guide manual is being produced. Please read the ‘Starting for the first time’ part?”
Sonia skips the first chapter, which doesn’t seem particularly important, and reads the table of contents and explanations.
‘The built-in AI will guide you on how to use it!’ Sonia was taken aback by the fact that it looked like it was all in one line, and that in the “Start” Section, it was written that you just need to insert your Sky City citizenship card or resident registration card into the empty space.
“…? Well… I don’t know what it is, but it makes it interesting…”
Wondering what the hell would happen if she put a plastic card in that tiny hole, Sonia took out her resident registration card from her wallet, which had no cash, no mart discount coupons, or restaurant vouchers. Pushed into the device.
…Sook!
It’s not a check card anyway, it’s just a resident registration card proving Sky City citizenship. It was a plastic card printed in color with a brightly smiling blond hair girl, but it didn’t leave a space to be removed like a bank ATM or card payment machine, but it was just like a Sook CD-ROM. A large refrigerator that ate Sonia’s cards. Stress management virtual reality experience device.
“…Uh…Uh huh?
Uh…? Eh…”
After eating the card as it is, it made a woo-woong sound like scanning Sonia’s ID card, and then a pod! A bright light began to come on the touchpad that seems to be attached to a vending machine while making a power sound.
Electronic synthesized sound that is played naturally as if it were connected.
[Hello! Miss Sonia. Thank you for testing our company …’S Virtual Reality VR Stress Management Machine this time! It is called the AI built into this machine. Please take good care of me!]
“…?”
Now that the power is on, Sonia is waiting for the next announcement.
Perhaps, like the humanoid I met yesterday while riding a bus or taxi, I thought it was an AI with limited response or pre-determined guidance, so Sonia was just waiting.
A mechanical device that spoke in electronic synthesized voices as if it recognized Sonia’s reaction from the outside.
[Please take good care of me…Sonia-sama…? Is the voice playback module damaged or is there a problem with voice recognition?]
“…Huh? …Huh? Can we talk… Can we talk?”
Yes. Absolutely! Said in a lively girl’s voice…A silver chrome large refrigerator that reproduces the girl’s synthesized electronic sound.
That…Does it really look like a refrigerator…? Really? It was Sonia who honestly nodded her head.
[…As a result of analyzing Sonia’s payment record, which was taken over by the association, it appears that she used a bus operated by Humanoid and a private taxi yesterday! So that’s what you thought! Miss Sonia! But I am different. It is operated as an AI for servers that can respond right away from the company. Do you have any questions? If you don’t have it, I’ll proceed with the first use step!]
“Uh…The tension is really high…”
[That’s because the company’s product management server AI manages it. Of course, you can respond to any voice input! Of course, that is 0%, but if it is impossible to respond, the company staff will respond! Thanks again for applying to be a product tester!]
A simple analog response is also possible. AI for device management that answers. After a brief conversation, Sonia asked the name of the company that provided the product as a tester, as if pointing out the fact that she didn’t mention the name of the company that provided the product as a tester.
[Ah! Since it is a product that has not yet been released, disclosure is prohibited by the association’s agreement! Of course, experience reports and data are collected, but in accordance with Sky City law, they are anonymous!
Then, would you like to try it right now?]
“Uh…Now? I have to go to sleep… Come to think of it, I have nothing to do… What should I do? More than that… What should I call you? “
[You can call it AI for terminal management that manages this device, but Sonia-sama, you can call it a new name at your convenience! Do you have any good names in mind?]
“Uh…It’s not there…! …”
It was very difficult for Sonia, who has a small communication problem, to give a name to a mechanical device she has never seen before. As if I knew that kind of reaction, I will naturally start ‘user registration’! The management AI of this machine terminal just skipped over it.
[Then please come inside me…! Miss Sonia! In order to register as a user, we will first identify propensity variables and check the cyber module.]
For some reason, a large refrigerator painted with silver chrome that opens on the side like a subway screen door while speaking with the feeling of a lively girl.
He said it wasn’t a refrigerator, but in Sonia’s eyes, it only looked like a refrigerator.
The other thing is that there is a bottom with a sole-shaped sticker attached like a professional device for measuring 3d modeling, so it seems like it can be written there, and behind the part where Sonia can stand, there is a rubber packing that looks soft.
“Would it be okay to write over there…?”
[Yes! Please stand where the sticker is attached!]
I don’t know, but it seems like I can stand there, so Sonia enters a large refrigerator and a stress management VR device.
It is called body measurement and propensity variable measurement for service provision… When Sonia put her foot on the footrest that shined like a sticker, it naturally started to sink slowly down, and I felt something like soft jelly envelop each toe. .
“Uh…That’s very strange…”
[Yeah. Because it’s high performance! This is an idea for accurate sensory feedback!]
The left foot and the right foot were inserted in order, a clicking sound as if the parts had been properly fitted, and Sonia’s ankle was fixed. It sticks to it and has a feeling of being fixed to this refrigerator-like device, but when I move it slightly, it feels like it is easy to get out with Sonia’s power.
“This… Like this?”
[Yes. Like that!]
Next, insert your hand into the small hole on the side as you say.
Sonia. Like a blood pressure measuring machine, the soft feeling that slowly reduces and clings to Sonia’s arm appropriately.
“How does it feel to be inside me? Haha, it’s an AI gag!
Then see you on the main screen. Miss Sonia!”
“Me…The main screen? I can’t see anything… Ugh?!”
As if a subway door closed naturally, the stress management VR device was pushed aside again and entered the mechanism and ate Sonia, who had fixed her hands and feet, as if it were eaten.
Above Sonia’s head, where nothing could be seen because it was closed with no room for light to leak out or enter, the helmet, which was dark and made of moderately soft material, was inserted into Sonia’s head as it was.
