章節 10: I'm an Android

After all that pondering, Finnia figured out that to give out the best assistance that she could to Enryl and Grandma Anne she needs to reveal to them that she's not actually a human. At this time period of the Year 2111, even though the village is in the rural area and the lifestyle is kinda backward, people aren't actually ignorant of the major technological advancements.

And also, she thought that there's no point in hiding it anymore from the two of them. Although there's a high chance that she's the only supreme quality (Quality are divided into Normal, Medium, High, Supreme, Celestial) android that exists in this time period. This means that she is very human-like in the way she talks, behaves and emotes. Her physical characteristics are almost indistinguishable from a real one having real skin, organs and blood.

The only difference is that she got cores. Her main core is located inside the pineal gland in the brain. And twelve secondary cores are located in the same location as the twelve Principal Meridians found in the human body. Each secondary core is backups of the main core. If the main core is being threatened, it can teleport and switch places with any of the secondary cores due to the special spatial mechanism built-in.

In a rare case that the main core failed to switch, one of the secondary cores can become the main core. And due to the nature of Silka to absorb the unknown energy, it can create a replacement secondary core if given with enough time (how fast is directly proportional to how much Silka energy is available). In other words, she won't cease to exist as long as there is at least one core survives.

It's a good and sunny morning. The three of them are having their breakfast while casually chatting.

"Grandma Anne and Enryl, I have something important to tell you.", Finnia said in a serious tone.

Both of them looked towards her. Curiosity can be seen from Enryl's face while Grandma Anne just smiled knowingly.

"But please promise first not to tell anyone", Finnia needs to make sure that only the two of them know. Without strength, they will be in danger if someone with bad intentions learned that they have connections with a supreme quality android.

Both of them looked at each other then turned back to Finnia and nodded, "We promise".

Finnia set up an invisible shield for the three of them. Nobody can detect it except for her. It will block any sound / vibration / visual / energy to the outside world. Anyone who looked at them from the outside will only see a visual loop where they are chatting casually with each other. With this, it will assure that nobody can eavesdrop their conversation.

At around the same time, somewhere within a kilometer from the farm, a guy with a red hair quietly frowned.

"It's nothing special but I'm actually not a human. I'm a robot. An android." Finnia confided.

Enryl's eye widened as if he had heard something incredible. Grandma Anne just smiled and Finnia noticed this immediately.

"Grandma Anne, when did you figured it out?" she was curious. As a supreme quality android, she is confident that nobody in this time period can figure it out. It's fascinating that Grandma Anne actually was able to? It's impressive.

"I have already had a hunch when you first arrived on the farm and after we've seen how impossibly fast you learn, that confirmed my guess," Grandma replied.

Upon hearing their conversation, Enryl's ears reddened.

"Grandma! How come you were able to figure it out that easily?" he is saddened that he didn't realize it too. He sulked looking at the floor not wanting to look at her grandma.

"Haha, don't be sad now my little boy. Once you are at the same age as your grandma, you will likely do as well." Grandma Anne silently winked to Finnia while patting Enryl to comfort him.

Enryl is still sulking but he lightened up a bit.

"Young Finnia, may we know the reason why you confided such an important matter to us?" Grandma curiously asked. For her, there's really need for the young girl to confide to them. She can just quietly go and leave them whenever she wants and nobody will really know.

"With regards to that, this might be impossible to believe, but somehow I now consider this farm as a home and both of you as a family", her cute young face started to blush a little bit of red.

"We're lucky to meet you young Finnia. You're such a treasure." Grandma Anne smiled warmly. She was genuinely touched.

Enryl nodded in agreement. He was no longer sulking and happiness can be seen creeping upon his face.

"In line with that, my intention for all of this is to help you both as a token of my gratitude. We all know that I can't stay here forever and so, it would be nice if I can leave in the assurance that both of you will be safe and can protect yourself even if I'm gone."

"With that, I would like to ask for your permissions to reconfigure your body using my nanites so to bring out its full potential. You will gain a healthier and stronger body. It can even extend your lifespan."
