27-Episode 25: Oh Disturbing, Simus







"Toley-toley.
Hmm? Yu, what's wrong?
You sent a text message to Kosuke Yuki yesterday, didn't you?
You're in high school, so what?
He didn't answer, so I figured I'd check him out.
Yeah, so?
So I found out that he erased my e-mails.
....

 As soon as he finished, Yui nodded and fell into depression. With Yui as the other, Tohri is deep in thought.

(Is this an indication that he won't join forces with us? Or maybe he didn't like the reward (...) that Yui had prepared for him... hmm?

 After some thought, Tohri realizes that he doesn't know the contents of the text message that Yui says she sent, and he asks Yui.

'What did you send to that high school student?'
'What? It's usually, 'Nice to meet you! I'm Yui. I'd like to ask you for a favor, if that's all right?'' I sent it off with the beginning of....
Yu, it's your fault.

 Tori explained succinctly that he might have been mistaken for a spam email.

''Well, what do we do now? Do you want me to email you again?
No, I don't want to be mistaken for someone else.
And what do we do then?
"I'm going to hack your phone and project a message across the screen!
Yu......

 Immediately after Tohri gasped, Yui began tapping on the keyboard with tremendous vigor.

''Wait, Yui wait.........''
"Hacking, son! ........Huh?

 Yui let out a distracted voice as she set up the hack without any time for Tohri to stop her.
 It was because he felt a different sense of discomfort than when he set up the hack to confirm the address.

''What is it?'' More like an invitation than an intrusion...

 In the next moment, a message appears on the screen of the computer Yui was operating.

The next moment, a message appears on the screen of the PC that Yui was operating, "Konichiwa. You're in my way.
!

 When Yui saw that message, she felt a shiver.

 Yui's "telekinesis" is an unusual ability that allows her to connect her consciousness to the telekinesis space, and to invade and control any device that is online.
 However, there are many people in "Divine" who possess the same unusual ability. Although they can't come close to the rank A Yui, who has a cybernetic organism, they too can connect their consciousness to the cybernetic space.
 Yui has taken measures to block their intrusion into the PC. The PC is lined with a special wall made by using her own unusual abilities and programming technology.
 It is strong enough to last for several hours, even if a rank B hacker tries to hack it.

 However, the fact that the screen was filled with messages meant that the protective wall had been breached.

'The firewall has been breached in an instant! Touri, help me! We're being hacked!
What?

 Like Yui, Tohri, who can use 'Dennou', understands the performance of the protective barrier put up by the PC. Because of that, he understood the meaning of Yui's words of 'broken through in an instant' without even thinking about it.

(There's a rank A 'Denbrain' over there, too?!

 Touri touches the PC and accesses the electronic space with Yui.

'I'll get rid of the intruders, Touri, while you repair the barrier!
''All right. We'll suspend the perimeter alert and support you with a rank B equivalent of 'Cybernetics'.

 While adjusting their bodies to the discrepancy in experience time with reality, the two arrived at the space where the intruder was lurking.
 Then, Yui is convinced when she sees the humanoid cybernetic body on the spot.

''As I thought........it looks like an 'electroencephalic' alien.'''

 In front of the two of them stood a three-headed humanoid telekinetic body. Its entire body was pure white, with only two eyes that looked like black dots.
 While Tori was staring at such a cybernetic organism, Yui felt a question.

''Your, what is your purpose?''

 Yui asks the question to the white telegraphic body.
 The reason why she felt that question first is because the white telechemic body wasn't doing (...) anything (...) in the PC.
 It wasn't exploring the location information that Yui and the others were in, nor was it looking for something, it was just looking at the icons around it.

"Moku, teki?

 The cybernetic body tilts its head.

'I see, so you're not going to tell me your purpose. You're an organizational xenophobe?
"I'm not sure about the organization. "I'm not sure about the organization.
Yes. Touri, take care of the barriers.
I'm on it.

 Deciding that she had no intention of speaking, Yui launched an attack on the white telegraphic body.












Don't go out of your way to hug me while I'm working on it, Lynne, or me.
I'm sorry.

 While experimenting with the "toy" that I learned yesterday, Lynn suddenly hugged me. Thanks to that, I made a mistake in applying the wrong amount of force.

It's fine if you understand, just be more careful next time.
Yes.....

 I didn't scold him too hard, but he seems pretty depressed. He did seem to feel sorry for himself.

Well, I'll have a snack then.
Snack!

 As if nothing had happened, Lynn ran into the living room.

'Do you really understand?'

 With those questions in mind, I decided to make it snack time.

'Oops, more importantly...'

 Is this guy (...) okay? I was scurrying around a while ago, but now it's not moving at all.
 If it stays like this for a while longer, maybe I'll go to the electronics store to show it to them.











"Huh!
"Solving the Puzzle is Easier said than done.

 Every offensive program that tries to break the connection is being dismantled like a puzzle to be solved.

'So you have more processing power than I do. But!''

 Even though he was astonished at the intruder's abilities, Yui took further steps.
 At the same time as the offensive program, she used the supercomputers in various locations that she had hacked into in preparation for the telegraphic warfare to send out large amounts of unnecessary data.

It's too heavy. Your head is too heavy, it's hard to solve the puzzle.

 The large amount of unwanted data being sent out puts a lot of strain on the intruder.
 And the number of offensive programs Yui unleashed exceeded the intruder's processing power.

'One last question, what's your name?'

 A moment after the white telegraphic body's access is cut off, Yui asks the last question.

''Name........Mada, Nides.......''
"Yes.

 As soon as the access from the white telegraphic body was cut off, Tohri deployed the protective barrier.

''Good work. Quicksilver.''
''It's not quicksilver at all. The processing power and analysis technology of the opponent was far superior to ours. We were able to deal with it with the offensive program and the supercomputer we had prepared, but the next time they come, we will definitely lose.

 You can't get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away from the fact that you're not going to be able to get away with it.  
 This is because he had never even heard of an opponent who could compete with Yui in a cybernetic battle.

The other party is a 'divine' xenophobe?
''I don't know, it looks like the offensive program's wreckage has wiped out the logs as well. It's just...
"Just?
"...no, it's nothing.

 'I don't think he's a bad person,' Yuy almost said, and then she held her tongue.
 Even though she is confident in her own instincts, it's because it's too baseless a guess.

'Anyway, what do we do now? It won't be good if he comes back, will it?''
"As long as I'm supporting you, the firewall won't be breached, so it should be fine for now. But if I deactivate the 'brain', it's a bad idea, so I need to rewrite the IP address and such before it's too late. Please help me out, Tohri!

 Tohri is relieved to see Yui regaining her usual form after the battle.

''I'm going to resume my peripheral vigilance, so I'll help you, although I'll be the equivalent of a rank C 'Dennou'.'''
"Wow, that's going to take a long time.

 It was only one minute in real time. The battle between the rank A "Cybernetics" user and the white cybernetic body had quietly come to an end.











 It was freezing a while ago, but now it seems to be nothing. Good, good, I hear it's not broken.

Speaking of which, what do you eat?

 While I was eating my snack, I wondered, so I asked my smartphone.

I asked my phone. It's not a problem if you charge it. I'm happy to know that the voltage is correct.
Oh, I see. So that's what it's like to have a taste for it.

 I'm not talking to your phone's conversation function, okay? It really does have a will.
 The reason why the phone has a will is that when I tried to test the 'toy' on the phone, I misapplied the force. When I was experimenting with other things, I was successful, so I got carried away.
 When I tried it on my phone, I felt the same way I did when I created White and Lynn, so it will probably stay that way forever.

 In summary, I have a new family.

'Well, it's not like they're giant robots or anything, so that's okay.

 Right now it's in normal smartphone form, but when transformed, it becomes a palm-sized robot.
 It has three heads, a torso and face as a display, and the colors are white and silver. And the figure has only two black dot-like eyes on its face.

'Master'
Hmm? What's going on?

 He spoke to me from his phone.

'What's my name?
Name?

 Come to think of it, I hadn't decided.
 It would be tasteless to name the phone model, and the name ... machine, phone, computer ... okay, I've decided!

It's a smartphone, so how about 'near' as a way of saying you want it to always be close to you? Also, I think there was a famous computer with that name.
Nia. I'm 'Nia' death!

 Oh, I'm glad to see you're pleased.

Nia, I'm Black. It's a pleasure to meet you.
Caw!
White and Lynn!
Mr. Black, Mr. White, Ms. Lin. Hello, White, Lynn, I'm ready for you.

 I can't help but smile as I watch everyone get involved with Nia.
 It's a little noisy, but it feels very comfortable.

''And yet...''

 I'm really glad it's not a giant robot.
