The Bad Works of Comics

Closer to home...

On the other side, the black Grim Reaper monster rolled its eyes as if feeling bewildered by this.

But after that, something happened that surprised Asuna even more.

With a loud bang, Yui's right hand was the center of a ball of red lotus flames.

The flame spread in an instant, and then immediately condensed and entangled into a long and thin shape.Seeing gradually turned into a giant sword.The flame-colored blade emerged from the flames and continued to extend.

The giant sword that appeared in Yui's right hand was much longer than her height.

The light that seemed to be like a metal before the melting point fully illuminated the passage.As if being pierced by a flame from a sword, all the heavy winter clothes on Yui's body burned away in an instant, and the white dress that was draped over her body at first appeared.

Miraculously, the one-piece dress and long black hair were completely unaffected even though they were also involved in the flames.

This is?Data composition, GM authority!

Misaka understands that Yui, as an AI emotional system, has certain system permissions, and this permission is exactly what Misaka needs.

Looking at Yui, the GM data code suddenly appeared in an instant, and the application method that I thought of in my mind was being analyzed with all my strength.

C language parsing...

I saw that Yui spun her sword that was far higher than her height bang!

Not seeing the slightest hesitation, Yui dragged the trajectory of the flames to attack the black god of death.

It was clearly the boss monster who moved purely based on system calculations, but Asuna felt that she could see a clear look of fear in the bloodshot eyeballs.

Yui, whose whole body was wrapped in a whirlpool of flames, rushed into the air with a loud noise.The Grim Reaper seemed to be afraid of this girl who was much smaller than him, so he raised his scythe forward and assumed a defensive posture.Facing the god of death, Yui swung down the huge flaming sword from the front.

The fiercely erupting blade of the blade collided with the handle of the scythe that was raised horizontally.Both stopped for an instant.

Just thinking this way, Yui's flaming sword moved again.

The immeasurable heat energy seemed to burn and cut the metal, and the glowing blade ate into the handle of the sickle bit by bit.Yui's long hair, one-piece dress, and Death's robe all flew back with the momentum of being torn apart, and sometimes the huge sparks that flew out even dyed the maze bright orange.

Chapter 176 Chapter 130 Eight truths, is this the terminal?Yui's sadness...

Yui's flaming sword pressed down, and the death sickle broke into two halves with a loud bang.In the next instant, the giant sword that had turned into a pillar of flame unleashed all the energy it had accumulated so far, and chopped down the center of the boss's face.

Asuna couldn't help squinting her eyes because of the powerful momentum of the big fireball that appeared at that moment, and at the same time raised her arms to protect her face.

While Yui swung the sword down in a straight line, the fireball exploded, and the vortex of the red lotus engulfed the huge body of the god of death, and rushed into the depths of the passage.

Amidst a loud noise, Wei Wei heard the screams before she died.

When I opened my eyes, which were closed because the flames were too dazzling, the figure of the leader had disappeared.There are small remaining flames flickering everywhere in the passage, and there are also crackling sounds.

And in the middle, only Yui stood with his head bowed.The flaming sword inserted into the floor melted and disappeared as it appeared.

Everything is calm again.

This is the power of administrator privileges, so powerful.

Looking at the giant sword that disappeared in Yui's hand, the last work understood a piece of electronic signal on Yui's body just now, intercepted a piece of code, and performed complex calculations.

"Yuki..."

Asuna called the girl in white in disbelief.

The girl turned her head quietly, a smile appeared on her small lips, but her big, dark eyes were filled with tears.

Yui looked up at Asuna and the last work, and said calmly: "...Mom...I remember everything..."

Yui remained silent for quite a long time after talking about recovering her memory.

Although he watched Yui quietly in the last work, his mind was speeding up calculations and deciphering the GM authority of the system, so he didn't express anything for a while.

Because Misaka already knew everything that happened to Yui.

But Asuna on the side was very puzzled, looking at Yui's expression, she seemed very sad for some reason, and finally asked,

"Yuki-chan...do you remember...? About my past..."

Yui continued to lower her head for a while, then nodded vigorously.Still crying but smiling, moving her tiny lips.

"Yes...Misaka, Asuna...I'll explain it to you now."

The moment she heard this cautious tone, a bad feeling gripped Asuna's chest tightly.She was helplessly convinced that something was coming to an end.

In the empty space, Yui's words slowly began to flow out.

"This world called 'Sword Art Online' is controlled by a huge system. The name of the system is Cardinal, and it can control the balance of this world based on its own judgment. And Cardinal was originally based on the concept of not requiring human maintenance Designed. Use two main programs to correct each other's errors, and then use countless subroutines to make all adjustments in the world... The AI ​​of monsters and NPCs, the balance of props and currency, all are operated by the program group under the command of Cardinal ...however, there is one task that must be performed by humans

.Only humans can solve the trouble caused by the player's mental state... Therefore, a staff of dozens of people was originally prepared..."

"GM..." Asuna murmured softly, "Yui, so you are the game manager...? A staff member of ARGUS...?"

After remaining silent for a few seconds, Yui shook her head lightly and told the shocking truth.

"...The developers of Cardinal wanted to hand over the task of taking care of the players to the system, so they tried a certain program. Using the characteristics of NERvGear, they monitored the mental state of the players in detail, visited players with problems, and listened to them. Voice of the heart...mental condition management. Mental HealthCare-Counseling Program, MHCP trial No. [-], program code Yui. That's me."

The overly surprised Asuna gasped, unable to comprehend what she had just heard for a while.

"Program...? Is it AI...?"

Yui nodded with a sad smile, and she didn't expect that she was just a program code.

"In order not to make the player feel incongruous, I also gave me the emotion imitation function... It's all fake... Including the tears... Asuna-san, I'm sorry... I'm just an artificial emotional intelligence, why? Might make you pour out your feelings on me..."

Tears continued to flow from Yui's eyes, turning into particles of light and dissipating.

Asuna took a light step and leaned towards Yui.

Stretching out her hand, Yui shook her head slightly, as if saying that she was not qualified to accept Asuna's hug.

Asuna still couldn't believe this, so she forced the words out.

"But...but, didn't you lose your memory...? That happens to AI...?"

"...a few months ago...on the day when the official operation started..." Yui lowered her eyes and continued to explain.

"I don't know exactly what happened, but Cardinal gave me an order that was not scheduled. All interference with the player is prohibited... This makes me only continue to monitor the player without being allowed to contact Mental condition."

Asuna reflexively realized that the unexpected order came from SAO's only game manager.Kayaba Akihiko's operation.

Yui should not have any information about this character.A painful expression appeared on her young face and she continued: "The state can be said to be extremely bad... Almost all players are shrouded in negative emotions such as fear, despair, anger, etc. at any time, and sometimes they may fall into a state of madness People appeared. I kept looking at the hearts of these people, and I should have rushed to those players to listen to their voices and help solve the problem...but I couldn't take the initiative to contact the players...the paradoxical situation of having obligations but not being empowered , let me keep accumulating mistakes and start to gradually collapse..."

At the bottom of this quiet underground labyrinth, only Yui's tiny voice, like a silver thread vibrating, floated.Asuna and The Last Work could only listen to her narration in silence.

"One day, I was monitoring as usual, and suddenly noticed that two players had mental values ​​different from others. That brainwave was a frequency I had never received before. Happy...safe...but not just So... I was curious about what kind of relationship this was, so I continued to observe those two people. When I watched their conversations and actions, I also had an incredible desire in my heart. It was not the process of work... but I I wanted to go to those two people...I wanted to talk to them directly...Because I wanted to get closer, I materialized every day in the system management device closest to the player's house where the two lived, and wandered around. I was at that time Maybe it's almost broken..."

"Does that mean the forest on the second floor of No.20...?" Yui nodded slowly.

"Yes, Misaka, Asuna...I've always wanted...to meet the two of you...When I saw you in the forest...I was really happy...It's strange, but it shouldn't be There is such a thing... I'm just a program..."

Yui, whose tears kept falling, closed her mouth.And Asuna, who was shocked by some kind of indescribable disgust, clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest.

"Yui...you are a real AI, right? You have real intelligence..."

"That's right, Yui, you are no longer just a program operated by the system, so you can express your wishes. Misaka affirms this. Because Yui, you have your own meaning of existence. For Misaka, You are my daughter!"

At this time, the last work, which has been silent all the time, can't help but speak to the girl Yui in front of him while facing the complexly sorted data.

Regarding Asuna and the last work's attitude, Yui tilted her head slightly and replied, "I...don't know...I don't know what's wrong with me..."

Asuna then asked in a gentle tone, "So, what is Yui's wish?"

"I...I..." Yui desperately stretched out her slender hands to the two of them, "I want to be with you forever...Mom...!"

Asuna didn't wipe away the overflowing tears, but ran to Yui's side and hugged that small body tightly.

"We will be together forever, Yui." Asuna couldn't help but hug Yui together.

"Ah... Yui is our child. Come home, we will live together forever..."

However, Yui who was in Asuna's arms shook her head lightly.

"Huh?...what is...too late...?"

Asuna asked in a bewildered voice, "What's going on...it's too late..."

"I can restore my memory... because of touching that stone..."

Yui looked towards the center of the room, and her little finger pointed to the black cube sitting there.

"Just now when Mama Asuna told me to hide in this safe area, I accidentally touched that stone, and I learned that it was not a simple decorative object... but was set up to allow the GM to connect to the system in an emergency management device."

Yui's words seemed to hide some kind of order, and several beams of light suddenly appeared on the black stone.Then with a bang, a bluish-white virtual keyboard appeared on the surface.

Appeared, this is, the cipher key for GM authority?.

Looking at the virtual keyboard that suddenly appeared beside Yui, the last work couldn't help but get excited.

During the analysis of electromagnetic fluctuations, Misaka activated his hacking ability and tried his best to crack [-]%, [-]%...

Hurry up, hurry up... Misaka has to get the GM access code key quickly, or Yui will... time is running out...

"The boss monster just now should be regarded as a bodyguard deployed to prevent players from approaching here. I used this control device to connect to the system, and called the object elimination device to destroy the monster. At this time, through the error correction function of Cardinal, I repaired the damage. The language function... This also means that Cardinal began to notice me who had been put on hold before. Now the core system is checking my program, and it should soon come to the conclusion of a foreign object and eliminate me. Already... no How long has it been..."

"How...how could this be..."

"Is there no way? Like getting out of here..."

Yui just kept silent, looking at Asuna and the last work with a smile, tears slid down Yui's fair cheeks again.

"Mom, thank you. We say goodbye here."

"No! I don't want this!"

Asuna screamed desperately.

"It's just the beginning! From now on, we will happily... live together happily..."

"Damn it! Misaka doesn't want Yui to say such sad things..."

Can't help but feel anxious about the last work.

Only about 80.00% of the passwords for the administrator’s permissions have been cracked, and there is currently no way to control the permissions of the data subsystem in the maze area.

"In the darkness...in the endless pain...only the existence of my mothers keeps me connected..." Yui looked directly at Asuna and the last work, and a faint light began to surround her body.

"Yui, don't go!"

Asuna held Yui's hand, and Yui's tiny fingers gently grasped Asuna's finger.

"As long as you are around moms, everyone can smile... I am really happy. I hope that from now on, you can also... replace me... help everyone... bring joy to everyone..."

Yui's black hair and one-piece dress began to disappear from one end into dreamy light particles like morning dew.Her smile gradually became transparent, and her weight gradually became lighter.

"No! I don't want to! I can't laugh without Yui!"

Surrounded by the overflowing light, Yui smiled, stretched out a hand that was about to disappear, and caressed Asuna's cheek. "Mom, have a smile..." Asuna's whisper echoed in Asuna's mind, more dazzling bits of light flew out.

"Wait a minute, Misaka don't want...don't... Yui..."

The Last Work rushed forward to hug Yui who was about to disperse.

Regarding the current situation, the last work is extremely anxious. This is the code program that the GM system is forcibly deleting Yui.

Even if Misaka will be able to control the GM management authority by then, it will be too late, because Yui will be deleted.

What should I do?

What should Misaka do?

Could it be that everything Misaka did before was in vain?

Looking at Asuna's sad tears and Yui's reluctant eyes, it was as if a wall was tightly blocked in her heart, and she couldn't breathe.

When the little light disappeared, there was nothing in the arms of Asuna and Last Work.

"Woooooooo..."

Asuna, who could no longer control herself, cried out.Kneeling weakly on the stone floor, he burst into tears like a child.The teardrops bounced off the ground one by one, mixed with Yui's remaining fragments of light, and then disappeared.

Damn~ Misaka, I’m not reconciled~
