Chapter 199 – GOOD ENDING 006 Codename Sonia – Graduation Ceremony->Welcome Party
Now that the existence that can be called hero Sonia, the person Sonia who came for a week ago, has disappeared.
A question from the Black Panther thrown at the cyborg standing in front of him.
(Answer who it is… No more. No need to think, no reason to hesitate… No… ♥)
It’s a question that would have been confusing if I had asked it a week ago or a few hours ago, but it’s a question that Sonia doesn’t have to worry about or think about now.
However, even if the content of the answer is simple, you don’t even have to think about it, in terms of how to report the answer, of course you have to move in the way you respond to it as ‘the same affiliation’.
Whoa… And simulated the action again in my mind.
It was rated as perfect. Still, don’t be discouraged. With a thorough attitude befitting the proud moment of declaring one’s own identity…
(At this moment. I don’t need anything else…)
The mental preparation is over. All you have to do next is to practice the actions you have in mind.
Even so, it’s just an act that I’m accustomed to, so I move on my own without thinking about it, but…
…Fault!
First lightly step on the floor with your right foot, and then.
The gaze is lifted towards the one to whom it is due respect…
Then, salute by raising the hand next to the waist higher than the identification number on the lower abdomen, above the emblem on the chest, and higher than the identification number on the shoulder.
(I feel like an idiot… To be ashamed of such a wonderful act… And besides…)
05 Seeing her older sister saluting the Commander of Pinephrine, she is taken aback. Sonia recognizes herself as a ‘hateful memory’ as she recalls her frozen self.
Before you get distracted by other thoughts. Again. All that remains is to answer Pinephrine’s all-too-simple question to declare who she is. Only that one thing
On the proudly exposed chest, there is a proud proof that proves where you belong and who you are being managed by.
Don’t be ashamed Rather, the cause that made me ashamed of myself that I thought I was ashamed of. Above the lower slit, clearly printed turquoise identification number on the lower belly. [06]
“Yes! Pinephrine Commander!”
In her head, moving her shoulder at the right angle with the identification name she had succeeded in accepting as another name and part of herself. A cyborg of cyber life that declares itself as if it were engraved in the living brain and in the heart.
“Entity Identification Name, SNA06! Identification Number 06! Codename, Sonia! Officially affiliated with the Cyberlife Corp. Security Unit today!
In order to realize the ideals of the commander, we are ready to follow any order! Please take good care of me from now on!”
…Chuck!
It seems that there is no need to answer verbally anymore. Epinephrine returns a salute to a newly recruited subordinate.
The cyborg in front of him now is no longer Hero Sonia, the hero of Sky City brought to the Hero Association by nomination request… As he introduced himself, the individual identification name is SNA06. She is just a cyborg belonging to the security unit with the name Sonia.
…Chuck!
The sound that follows is a little late and reveals a hesitant movement.
In the conference room of the underground base built deep underground on the site of Sky City’s Cyberlife company’s headquarters, cyborgs salute the newly arrived cyborg, who has been thoroughly trained.
As if we made a promise to each other. The cyborgs move towards the cyborg who reported their identity to the commander, and at the same time show respect as the same cyborg to the extent that they mistakenly thought that they heard even the sound of moving and the sound of stepping on the floor only once.
The only one who wasn’t a cyborg, Dr. Black Panther, was worried about whether he should do it too, but he slowed down by a tempo. Its eyes were filled with respect, just like the other cyborgs.
…
Documents to be submitted to the Hero Association. ‘Former’ Sky City hero Sonia who checked the [Employment] Item in the checkbox for reasons for retirement.
As a battle-specific cyborg body of the proud cyberlife security unit… As a combatant of cyberlife, a new second person…Sonia begins her cyborg life.
‘Something stupid. Something like that There’s no way it could be, right?’
The performance of the cyborg body and the actual experience. As a person who is fascinated by the greatness of the whole body that he experienced with his own body… Now that he has given up on being human and accepted a new self.
A cyborg who has not left a single lingering attachment to his old body.
‘Machines…Machines…Yes. I’m a cyborg, but I’m a machine… Because I’ve become a machine’s body… I don’t have to worry about dying unless my brain, my only biological part, is destroyed…’
‘I can work for the ideals of Commander for the rest of my life. A quick road to peace in Sky City… Can there be anything more blissful…?’
Sky City’s hero. While saying goodbye to Sonia, Cyborg Sonia moves to discuss future matters.
Now that you have made a clear choice. She was Sonia, walking proudly down the aisle as if she would not look back.

It is a different world from Earth, where most of it has become a wasteland due to a great war by artificial intelligence, like a mineral digging craft game made up of only squares, to an extent that is incomparable to Earth.
This earth that people who come from such a fantasy world will face.
Monster Gate, whose principle has not yet been discovered.
Outside the boundaries of the city, there are still unknown old-time technologies that remain undiscovered.
Only dungeons, this ‘Earth’ where you can go on a true adventure into an unknown wasteland if you want, rather than being an ordinary adventurer who receives a request from an adventurer’s guild on rare occasions.
After the great war between high-performance artificial intelligence and mankind, it was not enough to be called a country, but it was a time when each of them made a city and lived together.
– Even if you do not have a base on the coast where food procurement and water procurement are easy
-But a place that doesn’t even have a mountain range or a mine with a lot of resources.
The difference in human resources, where private bunkers and wealthy families of the old era ran away, and tried to live somehow, although it was difficult, is also a factor that made Sky City today.
From a resource standpoint, Sky City is nothing but a wasteland full of dangerous old-era remnants.
Ironically, Sky City has become a terrain where neither the ‘commander’ guarding the shoreline nor the colony of genetically modified insects found deep underground can come out because of the large crab shell monsters protruding out.
Thanks to that, there was nothing but Sky City. Conversely, to Sky City, which has become relatively safer because there is nothing…
Compared to other cities, disasters caused by ‘people’ may be the same, but damage caused by other environmental factors is very small.
Of course, there are adventurers from other worlds who gather more during the Sky City era, which is aggressively implemented for adventurers who are useful in many ways, from clearing dungeons to maintaining public order…
Right now, it’s more like an adventurer than a story of a hero active in Sky City.
The story of a cat girl who is not an adventurer… But a little short of being an adventurer.
–
“It’s the first time I’ve heard of the expression “Definite drop…
A quiet residential area in Sky City. Side. A cat girl sitting in front of a 24-hour convenience store and looking up at ‘the tallest building’.
A gaze that begins to read news items to kill time with a hologram visible only to itself using an artificial eyeball classified as a cyber implant.
If you do not change the number of party members in the middle, or if you clear a certain number of dungeons by yourself, no matter how bad your Luck stats are, you will definitely drop a specific item… It seems that the rule of the world has been revealed.
Still, there are cases where people are rejected from joining a party due to their extremely low Luck stats.
It is common to hear about getting a job at a private security company that pays a full salary, or being hired by a wealthy family somewhere in Sky City.
Wearing a cyber implant that turns her gaze to the side when the appropriately scheduled time approaches. Cat girl.
(That’… Too. Cyborg… Technology… Maybe?)
A robot that functions as an employee and a fixture of a convenience store that I think is not too far from today’s information gathering place that I was asked to do and that I would do it myself. Humanoid.
Humanoid
Beings who voluntarily underwent mechanized procedures and are sold, rented, or rented for convenience, distinctly different from the users of cyborg bodies. People who became equipment robots called humanoids.
