章節 5747: Exchange of Favors

Ves sympathized with Sigrund.

It may sound strange for him to harbor any sympathy towards a hybrid alien AI that had killed trillions of people, but they were not so different from each other.

Just as Sigrund had developed an inescapable relationship with the fleeters, Ves also fell into the grip of the mechers.

Once Ves became sufficiently prominent and valuable enough, the Red Association forcibly took him into their fold by 'awarding' him the status of an honorary member.

Although the mechers played nice and dressed this occasion up as a dream come true for many mechers, Ves had pierced through the illusion and knew quite well that the Association had claimed their ownership over him. There was no way that he would ever enjoy true freedom while the mechers exercised authority over him and his work.
