Empress??!!

Lyte's eyes almost fell out of their place, he couldn't believe it, how was this possible, he pointed his trembling hand with a shaky voice "E-E-Empress of Death?!!!" he exclaimed.

In front of Lyte stood a graceful stunningly beautiful figure, she was dressed in black-red robes, the beautiful face made one think it was perfectly carved, her body was curvy and her breasts were full but no part of her seemed out of proportion, such figure gave one that her temperament was very gentle, and now she was standing in front of Lyte who lays on the bed, and from her mouth came the shocking sweet voice of Ayza's.

Lyte knew this figure because it was one of his favorite characters from his favorite novel, and one he fantasized about a lot in the past, of course, this figure was one he built alongside the 'A.I' Ayza of that time, it was the work of imagination and technology and the body they built at that time didn't have a face instead it was just a blurry appearance... as Lyte thought to this point he looked shocked 'Did it mean that this is Ayza's actual face?'.

"Do you like it? I chose it because it was your favorite character! Am I pretty? How does my face look? it's my real face!" Ayza's sweet voice asked Lyte repeatedly as she jumped around and checked herself in the tall bedroom mirror, the graceful look disappeared, and what replaced it was a lively naive girl jumping around with a 'boing' 'boing' on her chest which Lyte's eyes were fixed on for a second, '*Cough*, *Cough*! focus Lyte! Focus!' he slapped his cheeks making sure he wasn't dreaming and got up.

"Ayza! How did this happen?" he voiced his doubts as soon as he calmed down, he went closer to Ayza who turned away from the mirror to face him, he extended his strong hands that kept trembling to her face wanting to touch her, his heartbeat was beating so fast it could be heard...

...But his hand went through the body of Ayza, and he felt huge disappointment, to which Ayza who was observing him noticed, "Why are you looking down like that? Do you know how much extra trouble I went through to make this body?" she said dissatisfied in her sweet voice, her beautiful face showed a sad and crying look making Lyte's heart shake he quickly comforted her.

"No no, you look great Ayza! I am not disappointed I just hoped I could touch you and hug you!" he searched for a good response but he couldn't make anything so he just went along his heart if it was another girl she would blush and maybe even scold him about the last part of his words but too bad our naive girl didn't think much of it and only found it natural, she nodded "I wanted to hug you too! *sob* *sob* but I can't make a real flesh body yet, the energy was too low, and it's difficult to build a real human body, but in the future- in the future, I'll make a real body for sure and then we can hug!" she responded sobbingly making Lyte's face heated up and his heart kept beating faster seeing the beauty tearing up and making such a promise, his heart melted.

"Don't cry! I promise we'll make you a body for sure! we haven't even started our journey and you've already gained a body!" Lyte quickly assured and comforted her, 'but wait...' he suddenly remembered Ayza saying something about energy then remembered the shaking of the world that just happened he asked urgently "Ayza! what energy did you use? and why did the world shake?" he panicked, because that was the energy for this supposed 'Journey' they didn't start yet!

"Uhh, The world shook because when I tried to make a body and because I remembered you said something about the Energy being enough for the journey once, so using my newly acquired abilities, I recycled some unneeded objects and structures and converted them into energy to build my body (＾v＾)" she explained it proudly winking at Lyte with a smug smile on her face, making it sound insignificant, but Lyte's mind was racing with thoughts he was so panicked that he couldn't utter a word.

"Hahaha, why are you so shocked? I am just that good and powerful after gaining my new abilities (❛ᴗ❛๑ )!" Ayza laughed thinking her new godlike abilities were so great that Lyte was speechless at their power, it seemed this beautiful girl had great abilities, from scanning, mapping, and analysis but her way of thinking was nothing like her power, she was too naive.

Yet Lyte's mind was thinking 'Oh sh*t! I'm f*cked aren't I? maybe she deleted the Library, or maybe she deleted the Laboratory, or maybe...' he tried to compose himself and asked his voice hoarse and trembling "Ayza which structures did you 'recycle?" he looked at her face seeing her hesitation he said in his mind 'Don't worry I won't hit you ("^_^), just tell me!'

"Let me show you, it was this place, I think it was called {Disposal Area}, it had some weird bones and other objects which looked useless so I just removed it <(^,^)>!" Ayza with that proud smile explained to Lyte as she transmitted memories to his mind, after examining them, he found that the place was not that important, it probably had the failed experiments of the master from all those bones and strange objects he didn't want to come in contact with, so he sighed in relief and almost collapsed from the stress of waiting for an answer.

"Thankfully you didn't remove anything useful like the Library!" he responded as his voice returned to normal to which Ayza showed her first expression of disdain on her face saying 'Are you stupid?', making Lyte not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Alright tell me what happened to you? what changed?" he asked with a serious look on his face this time.

Ayza's face finally showed some grace that suited her figure, she responded "My soul was strengthened 3 times the normal human soul to name it to soul power, every other ability I possessed in the past was upgraded to have better speed, accuracy! also, my storage increased and became linked to the Library, my [Artificial Scene Creation] has linked to the Experimental Land which had a simulation function you didn't know about, and my [Body Scan] has improved to accurately scan and detect in micrometer level same with my [Environment Mapping Scanner]--" Ayza kept ranting and ranting that Lyte couldn't keep up and quickly interrupted her "Stop! Stop! this is too confusing just make the usual old screen status we used back then!" he waved his hand and gave Ayza a better solution, a light bulb lit up above her head from hearing the idea(well the light bulb was her imagination).

[Status Screen:

- Name: Ayza.

- Age: 17.

- Race: Artificial Human.

- Occupation: Lyte's assistant and companion.

- S.P(Soul Power): 3

- Abilities:

* [Environment Mapping Scanner]: This allows for micrometer level scanning of the surrounding space in a range of 5 meters(no range limit inside the Pearl World), nothing above the microlevel can escape the scan.

* [Body Scan]: This allows for micrometer level scanning detail of the Host's body and soul, it can also be used on his companions(has better accuracy inside the Pearl World), nothing above the microlevel can escape the scanning, can be used on a specific target through physical contact for a detailed scan or a vague scan through users' eye with a search and comparison of information from {Library Of Known Truths}.

* [Artificial Scene Creation]: This allows the user to make a simulated environment inside his sea of consciousness range 50 meters(Inside the {Lair's Experimental Land} the environment can be simulated in real-time in a range of 5 meters), allows for micrometer level of detail.

* [Deep Analysis (New)]: Allows for a deep analysis on the certain topic provided by the user, it uses 100x normal processing speed(1000x times the normal speed when inside {Research Laboratory Of Unknown Truths} using the lab's equipment).

* [Derive (New)]: Allows the user to derive a blueprint about certain objects provided enough research material can only be used once per blueprint(x10 efficiency using both {Research Laboratory Of Unknown Truths} & {Lair's Experimental Land}).
