Capítulo 908: Chapter 328: Do Intelligent chanisms Dream of Magic Sheep? (Part 4)
Completely retracting her hostility, after much hesitation, she cautiously asked:
“I have heard before that the previous Saintess of the Kingdom was an extre human supremacist, showing no rcy to both magic creatures and demons… Humans, with your current display of power, you should have chosen to destroy , so why haven’t you?”

♛: “Do you want a fight?”
Seemingly hearing such a request for the first ti, the Hero froze for a mont, then raised his fist.
“No, I do not want to.” A wisp of steam rose from the neck of the chanical Empress, the prosthetic body in overload thought imdiately responded, and swiftly retreated two steps while dissipating heat.
“I have no intention of being your enemy…”
“Hmm, nobody wants to fight.” Accompanied by the sound of pages flipping, the Hero’s tone softened, lowering his fist.
“Humans, demons, and even magic creatures, as long as spirits can connect with each other, they are equal beings. I won’t deny your will to lead your kin to independence.
“Although you indeed troubled my friends, you’re not a goblin, so I won’t actively attack you—provided that you also do not harm others.”
The erald eyes within the black mist were clear and transparent, as if moonlight shimring on a lake, with no concealnt whatsoever.
The eye of the chanical Empress flickered, seemingly surprised to receive such a reply.
A mont passed before she softly responded, “…I understand.”
“That’s good.” Seeing mutual consensus achieved, the Hero nodded happily, then ignored the chanical Empress, and walked lightly past her.
“Ambassador’s Mansion, ah, is it over there?”
Watching the silhouette of the girl leaving while muttering to herself, the chanical Empress stood silently in place, speechless for a long ti.
Until the Hero’s figure completely disappeared from sight, she let out a barely audible sigh.
“Equal beings… huh.”
[Erosion Level of the chanical Empress (＜78 success)]

She raised her hand, gazing at the prosthetic body gleaming with a cold silver light under the moonlight.
Waking up from the production line, she was aware of her own mission, this inorganic body carrying powerful computing and combat capabilities… In that girl’s eyes, could it also be considered life?
For the independence of her kin, for the freedom of the intelligent chanisms, she had raised the flag against humans without hesitation, even secretly plotting to massacre this city…
To her, humans have always been enemies, oppressors, plunderers—and her awakening was ant to resist the tyranny of humans.
But now, the Saintess says, they are equal.
Is it possible, just like the Fourteenth Princess said, that intelligent chanisms and humans can actually coexist?
The eyes of the chanical Empress flickered with an obscure light, until after a long ti, the surrounding human clamor gradually reached her, she suddenly returned to her senses, and the thruster at her back released a bright blue-white pulse, the silver body shooting skyward like a teor breaking through the void, disappearing into the night.

Although tonight’s turmoil in the Alien Machinery City ca to an end, the ripples stirred by this storm have just begun to unveil the prologue.
With the gradual repair of the magic power circuit, the corridors of a large hospital in the city brightly lit up again, the dical staff at ease with the lights shining once more.
Even though nobody knew why the magic power surge that just swept across the entire city miraculously did not affect the supply to the wards, only plunging the corridors and so public areas into darkness, it was only when the surroundings returned to light that the dical staff truly relaxed.
Unlike the private clinics of prosthetic doctors, this is one of the few regular large hospitals in the Alien Machinery City. The hospital houses many patients who cannot currently be treated through prosthetic technology.
Despite the highest peak of arcane engineering in Alien Machinery City can create beings nearly entirely prosthetic like the First Princess, it does not an they can heal everything.
Curses, magic power disorder, addiction syndro, dark magic erosion… In this world where Arcane Surge still rampant, many injuries and diseases cannot be repaired by changing prosthetic bodies, and may even backfire on the prosthetics, causing more serious damage.
Unlike the Healer Association of the Kingdom which can transfer patients with difficult and complicated diseases to the Holy City, the healers of Alien Machinery City can only barely maintain the lives of such patients, hoping for new technology to erge one day.
However, today they received a surprise.
“She’s awake!”
“Oh my… Is this a miracle?”
“That voice earlier said she was the Saintess, could it be…”
“Hey, don’t spout nonsense, she was the one who stole the Alien Machinery core.”
“But still…”
Chaotic footsteps echoed through the corridor, many healers rushed towards the intensive care ward, observing the patient within through transparent glass.
Lying on the hospital bed is a girl who fell into a coma due to an accidental incident more than two years ago and beca a vegetative state.
Not yet fully grown, she did not accept the implantation of brainwave prosthetics, thus unable to awaken her consciousness through prosthetic channels.
Regarding her coma, the spirit mages in the Alien Machinery City were helpless and could only suggest her soul might have dispersed into the void.
Although her family never gave up, willing to bear the high cost of long-term intensive care, everyone knew her chances of waking up were slim to none.
But today, after the magic power supply restored, the healer who went to check the ward surprisingly found—the girl’s eyes were open.
Hearing whispers from outside the ward, the girl on the bed’s black pupils slightly trembled as she underwent doctor’s examination.
‘Who am I…’
Human words drifted into her ears, the keywords gradually clarifying the coordinates of her consciousness.
‘This magic power… Saintess… Yes, Saintess!’
Though long since past, yet still sowhat familiar magic power.
It was this magic power she had longed for, and also the one that plunged her to this state, awakening her from an endless nightmare.
—Indeed, she would never forget!
Saintess! Hero! The aspiration of the Nightmare Clan, also the girl who cast her into the abyss of death!
‘I am… Nightmare Sage!’
Amidst the joy of healers announcing the patient’s recovery, the girl’s eyes surged with black light like the night sea.

The fierce Saintess easily seized the Alien Machinery core, thoroughly shocking both alien machinery and intelligent chanism sides. Unable to take the core away, she chose to entrust this treasure to the Fourteenth Princess and used powerful magic to guard it heavily.
However, she was unaware that due to her appearance, the nightmare once entangled with her had awakened, observing from the shadows…
