The surgery went smoothly.
There weren't many parents who could watch their child get cut open, but Maya was one of the exceptionally calm ones.
Lier thought it had something to do with his mom's work as a caregiver, though it was more likely related to her childhood experiences.
To carry out the surgery, Lier had specially written a program similar to a Behavior Shard, preprogramming a large number of fixed procedures.
With several cameras providing visual guidance, the program ran fairly well. It cut open Lier's chest with pinpoint accuracy, avoiding every blood vessel and nerve it needed to avoid-
Using prepared supports to hold the incision and muscles apart, Lier pulled out the Second Heart in one swift motion.
It was a precision-made artificial device.
The blood loss made Lier a little dizzy-this kind of dizziness couldn't be canceled out by the system.
