18 White

As soon as the television is turned on, a small white speck appears on the screen, which quickly grows into a fluffy white cat. 

The cat's eyes were the same blue as James's. The cat looks at Ella in the eyes as if it was a genuine person. It tilts its head. A sound emanated from the television as its mouth began to move.

[Hello, Luna nya!I am White, a unique AI!]

White knows the face of Ella Lumino, even her nickname. Someone must have input her in the database. Unknown to those databases and stuff, Ella was startled by White.

When Shadow hears a familiar voice, he opens his eyes to see where it is coming from. He saw the white cat which he had seen every time he went to the head office of Fable.

"What is an AI?" she inquired, unsure of the term's meaning, seeing Shadow is also looking at the white cat.

Ella is not the type of child who spends all day on the Internet, preferring instead to read books from the library. She has never come across the word AI in any of the books she has read.

"It's White from the headquarter, an artificial intelligence, it's just like a real human with its own brain, and Eve invented it." Shadow clarified the situation.

'Eve? Is it responsible for practically everything that people use?' She was perplexed because most of the things in her old house also have the word Eve on them. Ella has heard that Eve invented most of the things that are utilized with electricity or mana.

White is an online artificial intelligence that can do a variety of jobs. Shadow was relieved to see White since part of his plan involves creating a new identity for them, and White is the best of the best when it comes to doing so. 

He also requires clothing for Ella and Ian. And, of course, there's also food which is important for the baby. Both of them don't know how to take care of a baby.

'Milk right?' Shadow thought about what to feed Ian. Ella was gazing at the white cat on screen with her eyes sparkling. The white cat was also staring at Ella.

"White created three fake identities for people inside this house" Shadow commanded.

White's head turns to look for the voice.

[Shadow! It's been seven months since I last saw you!]

The white cat recognizes him just like a person. White's face started to turn serious after saying it.

[Command accepted.]

White talks to him back in a robotic voice and his blue eyes on the screen start to change, it looks like there are many blue things floating in White's eyes really fast. Some places from the wall started to open up, camera-like objects popped out of those places.

"Ah! Stop, stop! White eliminate the command!" realizing his own mistake he cancels the work that White has been doing. 

White eyes change back to normal blue eyes after hearing it. All the things that popped out from the walls also went back to normal.

[Is there something wrong?] White asked, wanting to know why Shadow canceled the command while licking its paw. Ella watches the interaction between Shadow and White. 

Shadow gaze set on her which surprised her, he looked at her and told White.

"We need to shop first."
