678. Liquid Metal (Seeking Subscriptions)

"Excellent!"

James paced back and forth excitedly. "Man and machine as one—that is the core of my philosophy, and only geniuses with super-sensory talent can achieve it...

"Very good. Go back today and get used to the changes brought by your Knight body. Starting tomorrow, I will officially begin developing your super-sensory talent and teaching you
