Odd Encounter

I watched as Gawain activated its Self-Destruct Protocol. I also realized that it really was quite similar to my own version—at least, in that respect.

'Once it detonates, all the information it has will be uploaded to whatever server the Jared of this world has prepared for it. In any case, everything that happened here will be exposed to him.'

Did I really want that to happen?

'Well… perhaps…' I stared at the Automaton in front of me, watching as its Magic Circuits began to overheat and fry.

In a second or two, it would explode, swallowing me and the entire building we were within in its powerful eruption.

'I'm disguised anyway. It's not like my identity will be deciphered. Besides…' A smile formed on my face as I looked at the battered thing. '... I'm curious to see how this world's version of me would respond to this.'
