Saint Descent

After learning from Doctor Roman that the next Singularity leaned more toward technology than magic, Duanmu Huai immediately thought of Rumiere. At the Inquisition, Ann was in charge of magic, while Rumiere handled science; both were top talents in their respective fields.

Unlike Ann, however, Rumiere was not a Soul Card, so Duanmu Huai had no way to summon her directly. This was somewhat troublesome. The reason he had called Rumiere over this time was precisely to solve that problem.

"I want you to create a terminal that can contact me anytime, anywhere. Let's call it BB Boy."

"..."

How should he put it? Upon hearing Duanmu Huai's request, Rumiere's expression was as if she had been asked to create a kind of multicolored black. She was utterly speechless.

"You mean you're going to a New World and need my assistance?"

"That's right. Can you use your abilities remotely?"

"I'm sorry, but my abilities can only be used within my own range."

"What a hassle..."

Duanmu Huai had considered having a Soul Card hold onto Rumiere, then teleporting her over together with the Soul Card. But he had tried that idea before and ultimately failed. Summoned Soul Cards were not allowed to carry other living beings, though mechanical objects were fine.

In that case...

"However, I can try transferring my soul into a terminal. It might work."

"That works too?"

Hearing Rumiere's answer, Duanmu Huai was slightly taken aback.

"Of course, Inquisitor Mr. In fact, even Eclair and I as we are now do not possess purely human bodies. We are mixed with nanotechnology, so strictly speaking, we are half-human, half-machine creations. Even if this body were destroyed, we could awaken again by using another body... Of course, Eclair cannot accept that, so she always loses her previous memories. Please
