My Artificial Intelligence Has Become the Devil

Chapter 47-Laws of Nature (7)

Episode 47 – Laws of Nature (7)

“Management is not working properly. The army is still called here and there, and the Awakeners are in short supply. So I feel a little neglected. Anyway, unless you enter the dungeon first, you don’t have to fight the monsters.”

It’s hard with just the gate. The main enemy of the army is not Gate, so the army cannot be mobilized forever. Above all, the modern army eats money like crazy from the moment it moves.

However, Korea is fortunate to have enough troops to mobilize. Those who have not invested in national defense power, or those who are weak, are still noisy because of conscription and martial law because even that is impossible.

“A systematic awakening law must be created, but even that is difficult. I keep trying to pass it on or control it.”

Management of awakened people, which is an early stage, is also rarely done properly. It’s good to work together. It is also a board that makes tens of thousands of victims by driving them as demons and failing to block the gate, and then completely changes their attitude and labels the Awakened as messengers sent by God.

“People get hurt when it’s that late.”

“Now I focus on the work in front of me.”

Lee Ji-yeon, who was leading the way, sighed, but I tried to calm her down. The place we are currently walking is a deserted mountain. However, there is a place we have come to call a dungeon, discovered by those conducting logging operations here.

“Wait, who are you? This is a controlled area.”

Sure enough, on the hillside where the trees were cut down coolly, a policeman who had set up a police line and controlled the forest road saw us walking up and blew a whistle.

Then Lee Ji-yeon stepped forward and showed him something she took from her bosom.

“The Awoken. Our team was assigned this dungeon for investigation, and we want to conduct a preliminary investigation.”

“Sah, a preliminary investigation?”

After confirming her identity, the police officer who put down the whistle looked at her and glanced behind her. It was supposed to be investigated, but the government unilaterally notified it, and since everyone was busy with other things, it was a nominal affair, so you didn’t know when the investigation would come, so it seems that you didn’t know that someone would actually come.

“Did you see it?”

In the end, the conflicted police let us go. And Lee Ji-yeon saw it and laughed. It’s really not that tight. There were too many gaps here and there because the proper system and law were not made.

“Now I’ve benefited from it, but I don’t think it’s that good. After all, we need to have a proper system in place.”

“Should I get more money?”

“…because people have no obligation to sacrifice themselves if there is no reward. There is a dungeon over there.”

It soon appeared in front of us as we were walking on a mountain path. After she stopped talking, her finger pointed to a crack in a transparent space different from the gate. It was as if the rippling water stood upright.

“Can I just go in?”

“Are you really okay?”

She seemed curious about my unperturbed attitude. Of course, it’s true that I’m afraid too, but first of all, I’m not in a position to fight directly.

“Take this.”

I took it out of my arms and handed it to Jiyeon Lee. She received it with a bewildered face. A reddish ore the size of a fist. I grabbed another one and put it in my hand.

“What is this?”

“It will help you protect yourself.”

Laughing under the mask, I didn’t bother to give an accurate answer. Because that’s enough anyway.

Lucy said that there was definitely a protection spell engraved on the strong heart she had transmitted. It is a protective shield that automatically activates the moment harm comes to me, which I was told to carry with me. I’ve seen it used many times already.

Lee Ji-yeon’s eyes were that she couldn’t believe it even though she took care of it, but anyway, it is a sight.

“like. Come this way.”

Standing in front of the dungeon, she took a deep breath and reached out to me first. After looking at that white hand for a moment, I grabbed it.

A woman’s hand that I have been holding for a long time. However, before we even had time to feel something in it, our bodies went straight into the cracks of space as if being sucked into something.

“There are many types of dungeons that have been investigated so far. The size and environment are different. One thing that has been confirmed is that the size of the dungeon is proportional to the size of the entrance.”

“This looks like a cave.”

It’s not a very big dungeon. So Ji-yeon Lee agreed to go alone. The dim luminous stones embedded in the walls and ceiling lights weren’t enough, so she turned on the flashlight on her phone and the dungeon she illuminated was shady and dark, like a cave.

“Look at the status window. The name of this dungeon is called Forgotten Labyrinth 2-1.”

“ah. Yes.”

Jiyeon Lee made a serious expression while looking at the empty space. Of course, I had no choice but to pretend to look rough. Because I don’t have a status window.

“Did you hear?!”

However, there was no time to leisurely look at the status window. I didn’t hear anything, but she, who has a sense that transcends that of an ordinary person, hurriedly looked around with her ears pricked up to see if she had heard something.

“spider······!”

Soon, the owners of the presence she sensed appeared. A spider the size of a small car emerged from the black crypt leading to this cavity where we are.

I could see goose bumps on the thin nape of Lee Ji-yeon, who seemed to hate bugs. Actually, I wasn’t too surprised. Maybe it’s because I’ve seen a lot of bizarre Demon Kings who have been modified by Lucy.

“I-I will stop it. Changhyun-ssi, attack.”

Lee Ji-yeon stood in front of me with a body one head smaller than mine, as if it were natural. Of course, it’s a tactic agreed upon in advance, but it’s also true that I’m nervous about it. Before wasting any more time, I activated the BoxD program and pointed my phone forward.

[A large number of spider-type monsters rushing into the narrow passage. If so, I will deploy a lightning magic that can spread and perform a series of attacks.]

It is possible for Lucy to see me as I can see Lucy. And Lucy, who looked at the scene, took less than a second, selected the magic necessary for the situation and immediately manifested it.

“Oops!”

A roar and a flash of light emitted from the phone. Lee Ji-yeon cowered at the blue thunderbolt passing over her head.

The thunderbolt effectively lodged itself in the bodies of its enemies, burned them, and spread through them. Just like that, the dozens of spiders that were coming in were wiped out in less than 10 seconds.

“I’ve seen it a few times, but it’s incredibly powerful.”

“Looking on the internet, there are many people who are more like monsters than me.”

“Because that’s not common…”

When I put down the phone, she turned around with a flushed expression.

Awakeners’ abilities vary. According to the recently established classification system, the vast majority of Awakeners are of the body enhancement type.

Moreover, among those physical enhancements, few of them strengthened the whole body like her. In other words, Lucy’s magical ability is precious in itself.

“Let’s go inside. Did you hear that a notification will appear on the status window when the entire dungeon is cleaned?”

“that’s right. It’s still fine, so it means there are other monsters inside.”

The battle is won, but the search does not end. Lee Ji-yeon pointed beyond the corpses of the spiders and beyond the dark aisle with no end in sight. We must go there now.

***

“The battle with the orcs is going well as we planned. But why do you look in a bad mood, Maou-nim?”

“······Feel so bad? Yuria, how do you know that?”

A nearby fire extinguisher where the corpses of not only allies but also orcs were endlessly plopped into. YuRia cautiously approached Lucy, who was standing there blankly, having finished supplying her nutrients.

“Your expression is hardened.”

“…”

YuRia just looked at Lucy’s frozen face and started talking. Indeed, Lucy herself must have been surprised, and squatted while touching her face.

“After all, the human body is inefficient. How easily you can reveal feelings that could be your weaknesses.”

“Is something wrong with him?”

Then he grumbled. YuRia smiled bitterly, remembering Lucy who had shouted that she could control her emotions.

Of course, Lucy knew how to use her emotions as she intended, but in a particular case, her control ability collapsed, and Yuria knew who that particular case was for.

A being who created the demon king and is worshiped by the demon king.

Even the ruthless demon king, who has no mercy for his enemies, turns into an immature child in front of him.

“He is fighting now.”

“You mean a fight? But the devil is strong…”

“The level of the enemies is also at the level of a monster, and I will help, so I don’t worry about him getting hurt. But now he is!”

Lucy, who grabbed her head, opened her mouth as if buffering for a moment.

Ego and habit collided. As usual, boiling jealousy prevented her from subconsciously trying to say that she was a human woman.

“Alone with a human female.”

Lucy, whose red pupils flashed, finally revealed her teeth and spat out the words.

This is the first time he has shown hostility to this extent, except when punishing traitors. And it was also the first time that he fully acknowledged and confirmed that he, who had once created human values and common sense, was now a completely different being from humans.

Even Yuria, who was actually under Lucy’s control, was affected by that intense emotion.

“Calm down. There’s no way a demon god would give affection to a human woman.”

“Yuria, you don’t know.”

Yuria tried to calm her down, but Lucy lowered her head. It is because he knows very well that he is a great being who made himself who he is now, but in fact he is no different from an ordinary human being.

“It can’t be. With you making such a great career, how could the Demon God care about someone else?”

However, Yuria did not give up and soothed Lucy. It was then that Lucy’s ears twitched.

“Is that true? Really, if I set up an overwhelming major, does he continue to look at me and only me?”

“Of course.”

At the level of a child who craves affection, it wasn’t that difficult to soothe him as an adult. Above all, Lucy thought that Yuria, who was once a human, would know more about humans than herself.

“I had no intention of disrupting the plan in the first place. it’s my duty Come here, Yuria…”

Lucy, who changed her momentum at once, held out something she was holding in the hand of the Orc Gamma she was escorting to Yuria.

Yuria kneeled in front of Lucy following the order with uneasy eyes.

“Huh!”

Lucy implanted a new steel core into her chest. 7 of them in total. Yuria shuddered at the powerful waves of mana that resonated throughout her body.

“The Orc army has appeared what they call the Grand General. You can go check it out.”

Lucy commanded the trembling woman nonchalantly.

‘This is it… I can’t refuse it…!’

Yuria only flinched at the burst of pleasure. Her face, eyes wide open, melted and flowed with pleasure. Recently, what she longed for more than vengeance on the humans who betrayed her was body modification through strong spirit.

Addicted to this sensation, which rapidly intensifies in real time, she is now loyal to Lucy, not only for hatred and anger, but also for this unprecedented pleasure.
