But the 2B before him was clearly a robot he had built with his own hands. In other words, she was just a cold, lifeless machine.
Yet now that she was moving, he inexplicably felt his face flush at the sight of her mechanical body. This was damned ridiculous.
Could it be that there was a pervert living inside him?
No, no, no, that wasn't it. I'm not a pervert. It had to be because I made her too realistic.
Yes, that had to be it!
"Creator, your heart rate has been detected as excessively high. Do you need 2B to help relieve it?"
Just as Loren was struggling with himself internally, 2B looked at him with concern.
At the same time, her slender, scallion-like fingers reached toward him.
But before she could touch him, Loren quickly took a step back, neatly avoiding her fingers.
"Stop. Putting your clothes on would be the best help you could give me."
As he spoke, Loren handed the prepared Gothic long dress to 2B.
"Understood, Creator. 2B will obey all of the Creator's arrangements."
2B obediently took the clothes Loren handed her and quickly put them on.
In just a few minutes, a Gothic-style 2B identical to the one from the original world appeared before Loren.
Looking at 2B in her long dress, Loren finally felt a little better.
But the fire 2B had stirred within him could not be extinguished. It looked like he would have to call in a few more maids tonight to put it out.
Dressed up, 2B was like a captivating elven goddess. She spun gracefully in front of Loren with light, dancing steps.
Then she said with gentle delight, "Creator, this outfit is so beautiful. 2B likes it very much. Thank you for your gift, Creator."
Because the AI Brain System made 2B simulate the expressions and mannerisms of a real human woman, she now looked like an intelligent and elegant beauty.
She was clearly a robot, yet every gesture displayed an elegance and charm that many human women lacked. The feeling was truly strange.
At the same time, it was rather ironic. Things that normal human women were gradually losing were instead possessed by a robot. There was really no comparison.
Seeing 2B happily spinning around in front of him, Loren could not help but feel deeply moved.
He had to admit, this AI Brain System was far too humanlike. It had reached the point where truth and falsehood were impossible to distinguish.
Just judging by her appearance, speech, and behavior, who could possibly tell that she was a robot?
Still, this was good. It would make it easier for him to keep her by his side in the future.
After all, his main purpose in creating 2B was to make her his personal bodyguard and protect his safety.
Before this, he had worried that 2B's behavior would be too mechanical and easily draw suspicion.
But now, he had absolutely nothing to worry about. The 2B before him was practically no different from a real person.
That way, he could have her follow him at all times as his private secretary.
With that thought, he immediately gave 2B an order.
"2B, from now on, you will follow me as my secretary and carry out protection duties. Do you understand?"
"Understood. From now on, protecting the Creator's life and safety will be my highest-priority mission. Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will complete the mission."
"Very good. Since you'll be staying by my side from now on, you can just call me boss."
"Understood, boss!"
"Good. Put on these black military goggles. They suit your temperament better."
As Loren spoke, he handed the military goggles he had personally made to 2B.
The 2B from the original world had always worn something resembling a blindfold.
But it was not actually a blindfold. It was standard-issue military goggles, mainly used to scout enemy activity.
Upon hearing Loren's command, 2B put on the black military goggles without the slightest hesitation.
At once, the previously intelligent and elegant 2B gained a trace of coldness and killing intent.
Seeing her like this, Loren nodded in satisfaction.
"Now that's more like it. This is the 2B I remember, the queen of the 3D zone!" Loren muttered, a wicked smile on his face.
"Boss, what does 'queen of the 3D zone' mean?" 2B asked curiously after hearing Loren's words.
"Nothing. Girls shouldn't ask so many questions. Anyway, it definitely isn't you." Loren smiled awkwardly and casually brushed it off.
"But I clearly heard you say it was me." A suspicious look appeared on 2B's face.
"Did you? Then you heard wrong. I was clearly talking about Tifa. Looks like there's something wrong with your hearing system. I'll fix it for you later."
"Is that so?"
"Of course."
"Then who is Tifa?"
"Didn't I tell you? She's the queen of the 3D zone!"
"Alright! It looks like my hearing system really has malfunctioned." 2B lightly scratched at her ear like an adorable little girl.
Just as Loren was admiring the 2B he had personally created, a telephone suddenly rang inside the secret laboratory.
Hearing the ringing phone, Loren frowned. It was the ringtone Freddie used to contact him from outside the laboratory.
Over the past month or so, he had barely stepped out of the laboratory in order to create 2B.
All his food had been delivered to the door by Freddie, the butler, before Loren carried it inside himself.
But it was only ten in the morning, nowhere near mealtime. Freddie contacting him now meant there must be some other important matter.
After he answered the phone, Freddie's slightly grave voice immediately came through from the other end.
"Young Master, the murderer who shot Master has been caught."
That simple sentence immediately made Loren's expression turn utterly grim.
"Where is he?"
"He is currently being held at the police station and is under interrogation. Do you want to go take a look?"
"Yes. Prepare the car immediately. I'll interrogate him myself."
