"Eh..." Ling looked up at T-X behind her, her blue eyes filled with bewilderment and helplessness. She tried to move, but T-X held her firmly in place.
Ling, 0m. Neutral Good, perceptive, lively. Emotion: slightly panicked▼. Threat level 0 Fu Hua, 19m. Lawful Good, resolute and unyielding, calm (latent tendency toward indifference▲). Emotion: anger▼ (trying to calm down). Threat level 7
In T-X's evaluation system, threat level and danger level were not the same. Threat level was assessed based on many factors. Allies or enemies who posed no threat to the mission would have a threat level of 0, no matter how powerful they were. An enemy guaranteed to prevent the mission's success would have a threat level of 10, no matter how weak they were. Danger level, meanwhile, was the standard for judging the gap in combat strength between friend and foe—the greater the gap, the higher the level.
Fu Hua clenched her fists, her stern and hateful gaze seeming like a blade cutting across T-X's body.
Kevin, 15m. Neutral Good (latent extremist tendency▲), resolute and unyielding, aloof. Emotion: anger. Threat level 5
Kevin frowned. "Between her corpse and returning empty-handed, which do you think I'd choose?"
"This is not a dilemma that permits a choice." T-X spoke in a mechanical, rigid tone, its even pace hammering against everyone's heart.
"This is an order."
"Death. That is what the Main Control Unit calls the button for the Twelfth Law-Ruler's awakening."
T-X swept its gaze over the group.
Sakura, 18m. Neutral Good, resolute and unyielding, sentimental. Emotion: extreme anger▲, despair. Threat level 4
Sakura was glaring fiercely at T-X, the veins on her sword-gripping right hand standing out as though they might bleed.
