Thomas wanted to slap himself right on the spot.
But looking at the expression of the young girl in front of him, he couldn't muster the words to back out.
With the young girl's concerned company, he entered the body modification clinic with the air of a condemned man.
But, surprisingly, half an hour later when he left the clinic, he felt quite good!
He didn't go for an extreme modification right at the beginning. Instead, he simply had his arms replaced with mechanical ones.
— Initially, he had planned to go for the least drastic transformation, just replacing one arm capable of holding the heavy mobile ball.
But the process of replacing his arm with a mechanical one was not scary at all.
He laid down on the bed, his arm was fixed in place, the doctor drew the curtain to block his view, and then, he felt a prick on his shoulder, and lost sensation in half his body.
Just three minutes later, the doctor pulled back the curtain, announcing that the transformation was done.
