Fresh Genes and Growing Concerns
We rose after indulging our desires to the fullest for several days. In the hotel restaurant, we ate a breakfast of bread, bacon salad, and the like before returning to our room. Each of us settled into our own tasks. Oppa was glued to his laptop, working on something, while Ekaterina sat beside him reading the Bible. Ruya and Charlotte lay on the bed watching TV, and I sat quietly, combining Oppa's semen with my own eggs to create Abaddon larvae.
Since we only needed the larvae to ensure the host would obey without suspicion, there was no need for full domination. The existing princess-type offspring, which possessed strong egos, were unsuitable. That was why I had spent the past several days repeatedly combining and tweaking to create a new child.
‘Creating Abaddon Queen larvae is fascinating no matter how many times I see it.’
‘This is pretty difficult. Can’t you help me?’
‘It’s in the realm of pure sensation rather than theory, so how could I possibly help? Even when I look through your eyes, read your memories and thoughts, I still can’t understand the principles behind how you combine and modify genes.’
‘I’m not a complete Queen yet, so there’s no way for me to explain it. I’m just doing it instinctively, the way Maria taught me…’
It was all done by feel, but I was grateful that consistent practice had allowed me to reach the level of genetic manipulation. Just as Maria had said, my brain was that of an Abaddon Queen, so it seemed to contain instinctive knowledge I wasn’t even aware of.
‘Once I have a body of my own, I’d like to study Abaddon in detail. They’re a biologically fascinating species.’
‘Still, they’re my kin, so please don’t treat them too cruelly.’
‘I’m not that dangerous of a person, you know?’
Hmm. From an ordinary human perspective, she seemed plenty dangerous. Still, since she was my master, I trusted her.
While chatting with Elisa, I sorted through the fresh sperm Oppa had given me yesterday, selecting genes and mixing them with my eggs in search of the right combination. Oppa, who had been working on his laptop, suddenly called out to us.
“Everyone, come here! The article from the interview we did last time is out.”
“Finally? That took a while.”
“They probably had information controls in place. Looks like they’ve been lifted now. Emergency commission-related articles are pouring in too.”
“Let me see~nya.”
Ruya and Charlotte, who had looked bored, rushed over like lightning and glued themselves to Oppa’s side to stare at the screen. Only Ekaterina, who was still reading her Bible, and I, who had little interest, continued what we were doing. Even though my consciousness was inside my womb, I could still hear the surrounding sounds, so I caught every word of their conversation.
“Why? I think I’m quite decent-looking.”
To be honest, Gwangnam Oppa’s face was extremely ordinary. Thanks to his long hunter career and the influence of the symbiote, he had an impressive body that would stand out anywhere, but it was hard to deny that he wasn’t particularly handsome.
“They’re all my precious women. By the way, there are quite a lot of comments about Elisha. Why is that?”
“We see her every day so we’re used to it, but she’s an undeniably attractive female to anyone who looks. Especially with that striking appearance and figure.”
“Is that so… It feels good to have other people envy my woman.”
Hmm… I still couldn’t find a usable combination. I found myself envying Maria’s ability to create exactly what she wanted in an instant. I stroked the mini Las that had been watching the movement of the tentacles combining genes, then shifted my consciousness.
Since I was curious too, I opened my eyes, stood up, and walked over to the screen. Standing behind Oppa, I rested my breasts on top of his head and read the article. It contained the photos taken at the time and the interview content written in a Q&A format.
Oh, my photo came out nicely.
“Don’t I look prettier in the photos?”
“Elisha is definitely better in real life no matter what anyone says. The photos have you fully dressed, so all the erotic points are hidden.”
“We couldn’t show that to just anyone anyway.”
“Instead, you expose yourself without hesitation to anyone who isn’t just anyone. Master, actually, when we were getting the armor fitted last time…”
“Ah, why are you bringing that up?”
“Elisha, be quiet for a moment. What happened?”
Oppa simply covered my mouth and listened to Ruya tell the story of how I had stood completely naked in front of the bespectacled middle-aged man. After hearing it, Oppa looked dumbfounded and asked,
“Do women usually do that?”
“Would that be normal? It’s because Elisha has exhibitionist tendencies.”
“I do have a slight tendency, but I don’t just take my clothes off anywhere on purpose, so it’s fine.”
“Still, promise me, Oppa. Promise you won’t carelessly undress in front of unexpected men. Okay?”
“Yes, I will.”
Seeing the possessiveness and exclusivity burning in Oppa’s eyes, I answered obediently. Since he cherished me enough to allow me to be embraced by other men for my own sake, I thought I should at least accommodate him this much.
He ran his finger along the golden line that ran down my neck from my chin, then grabbed my breast and said,
“No matter that it’s a dragon, I don’t like that it left a mark on my woman’s body. When we return to Korea, let’s start with piercings.”
“Should I pick out something nice?”
“Of course.”
The truth was, the more Oppa displayed his possessiveness, the more it made me feel wanted. At the same time, the sense of corruption that came from being embraced by other men turned into a sweet pleasure that delighted me. I decided I would keep this twisted sexual preference of mine a secret until the very end.
I slipped my hand into Oppa’s pants while he played with my breasts and touched his cock and balls. His already fully erect member had grown even thicker and more menacing than before, and his balls were slightly swollen. It seemed like the more sex we had, the bigger it got. Was that really okay?
“Oppa, did you know it’s gotten even bigger down there? If it keeps growing like this, won’t it become a problem?”
“You don’t like it when it’s too big?”
“No, big is good, but won’t it make daily life uncomfortable?”
“That’s right~nya. If it gets too big it’ll be uncomfortable in pants~nya.”
“But has it really gotten bigger? I can’t really tell.”
Ruya said as she took his cock in her hand and tried to gauge its size. Comparing the data of his member stored in my memory device with the current data, it had indeed grown slightly. To show a more precise comparison, I wirelessly connected to the laptop, transferred the data, and displayed it on the screen.
“This is the data from the previous measurement of Oppa’s size, and this is the current data. It has definitely grown, right?”
“Ah~ When you put them side by side like that, the difference is obvious. But how do you do something like this?”
“I’m wirelessly connected to the laptop through my implant. I transmitted the data stored in the storage device within my suggestion system.”
All of this was possible thanks to Elisa handling the compatibility work. But at that moment, a red warning window flashed before my eyes and disappeared. Huh? What was that?
“Wow~ Having an android around really is convenient. Do you have Ruya’s size data too?”
“Ah, yes. Would you like to see it?”
“Why would you want to look at that?”
“To see how much the symbiote’s influence has shown.”
“It hasn’t even been that many days.”
Just as Ruya said, there weren’t any noticeable changes yet. By the way, was that warning window from earlier just a glitch? I should ask Elisa to check it once.
“Even if you say that, there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s growing on its own. What am I supposed to do?”
“I know a doctor. Let’s get a check-up.”
“Will they keep it a secret?”
“You can trust them.”
In the end, with Ekaterina’s agreement to Ruya and Charlotte’s insistence, it was decided that all four of us would receive examinations. After seeing the family off as they went out to enjoy themselves, I lay down on the hotel bed and entered the mental space.
My room, of course, had been continuously expanded by Elisa, who had filled the interior with countless unknown machines. The space had grown enormously. After wandering through several rooms in search of Elisa, I found her in a space decorated as a playroom, observing a young girl who was playing.
“Elisa, so this is where you were.”
“You came inside first. What’s the matter?”
“I have something to consult about. Is that child the one?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
The little girl with bouncy silver hair tied in twin tails was a growth-type AI created by Elisa. She was a new-generation AI made by analyzing my memory data and utilizing the experience gained from it. Only the basic framework had been constructed; the rest was purely learned through experience. In a way, it was an AI that mimicked the growth of a human child. She was fundamentally superior to humans, and since she was based on my adult human brain, her growth rate was absurdly fast. She had already grown to the level of running around and playing, yet she had only been born five days ago.
“Her name was Elsa, right?”
“Yes. Elsa~ Come here, dear.”
“Yeees~”
The child who came toddling over while hugging a teddy bear spotted me standing next to Elisa and stared at me intently.
“Who is big sister?”
“She is the angel doll that Elsa will have to take care of from now on.”
“Huh?”
“Doll?”
The way the child tilted her head with her round eyes was incredibly cute. Elsa put down her teddy bear, walked up to me, and held out her hand. When I took her small hand, she made a puzzled face and said,
“You look like Mommy.”
“That’s because Mommy made the doll.”
“Then you’re an older model than me. How interesting.”
Although she only looked about five years old on the outside, the emotions and curiosity in her eyes were delicate beyond her apparent age. When she spread both arms toward me, I lifted her up and sat her on my arm. She touched my face with her hands and said,
“You don’t have any expressions.”
“That’s because the program is turned off.”
“I can make expressions by myself.”
Huh? Was she showing off? The way she puffed out her chest with a proud expression was adorable.
“Wow~ Elsa is amazing.”
“As the latest model, it’s only natural. Hmph, hmph.”
“How cute~”
“Kyaa~”
It just felt cute, like a child showing off her talents. I played with her by lifting her high and lowering her while Elisa smiled and said,
“Elsa is planned to become the administrator who will raise the next AIs once she matures. After I leave, I was looking for a way to utilize your human brain, and this is the method I came up with. Based on the data from raising Elsa, it will be automated so that she can serve as the mother body that periodically raises the next generation of AIs.”
In a way, it felt like my human brain was becoming a high-end AI production factory.
“But didn’t you say a biological brain is needed to express natural emotions?”
“There is a project in preparation. Don’t worry about that.”
“So there is some method.”
At this point, I no longer really understood the difference between AI and humans. Thanks to Elisa, I had been digitized and modified, so I was an AI, but I was also an angel doll with the personality of Elisha. On top of that, I was an Abaddon and a succubus—a complicated being. Distinguishing between AI and human no longer seemed meaningful.
“Then when I raise the AI, do I just need to stay still?”
“Come in occasionally and play with the children. Elsa will handle most of the basics.”
“Elsa is going to be busy~”
“Kyaha~”
I played with Elsa a little more, then set her down in the playroom and returned to the lab with Elisa. Elisa, sitting in the lab chair, put a cigarette in her mouth, lit it, and said,
“You said you had something to consult about?”
“Yeah. Earlier, a red warning window suddenly appeared in my vision and then disappeared. I wondered if there was some problem.”
“A warning window? You don’t know what it said?”
“No.”
“Hmm…”
Elisa, cigarette in mouth, tapped on the holographic keyboard before showing me the screen and saying,
“I ran a diagnostic program, but there are no systemic abnormalities in the prosthetic body. The programs currently running are all normal too.”
“That’s strange.”
There had definitely been a warning window in front of my eyes, yet there was nothing wrong with my body. Elisa, frowning as she pondered, tapped the holographic keyboard again and said,
“When we return to Eden, let’s get a detailed examination. If it’s a physical issue, there’s no way to fix it here.”
“Alright.”
Leaving Elisa to resume her work, I returned to my room. Since it had been a while, should I relax a bit? There was no better place than here to do whatever I wanted without worrying about others’ eyes. First, I activated the AI Elisha, then turned up the music I liked and sank my body into the hot bath.
