Another shitty chapter for a dead and shitty story yay. Actually short chapter. Also the title of this chapter is a reference to a new character that's showing up.
The following few hours after Irina had met the weird and mysterious Lithiluminite and Avililith we're in all honesty quite boring and consisted of the thoughts swirling around in her head which seemed to be more crazed and frantic then she can ever remember them being before and to somewhat calm the swirling ball of destruction that was her brain she ended up going to Malina who gave her a relaxant to help her calm down a bit and it worked for the most part, but seeing as Malina was unusually clumsy for someone who was a bioengineer, scientist and a certified doctor, she ended up giving Irina stronger relaxants that were usually only meant for testing and now Irina was tipsy and not all that aware of what was happening around her anymore.
"Shit I should have looked at the bottles. I blame the labels for being too similar." Malina said with sigh as she put Irina's arm around her shoulder then walked her back to her room.
As Malina walked Irina back to her room she walked by the large window of the corridor and she stopped for a second to look at the bright flashes of blue and red in the distance and when she looked out over the impossibly long distance she was slightly terrified by the sight of Issei fighting with Ene.
"I hope they're just training and not actually fighting." Malina mumbled as she felt the corridor shake and saw a bloom of dust and rock fly up into the distance.
As Malina watched Ene and Issei fight she ended up forgetting about Irina and as she did she couldn't help but find amazement in the power the two had. Issei already terrified her and seeing his body seemingly disappear and reappear fifty feet from where he originally was in a fraction of a second amazed and terrified her. With the way Issei fought he truly did seem like a breast who relied on raw power and speed to dominate his prey while Ene was a more graceful fighter, her body and movement fluid and elegant like a princess who was dancing before a crowd of aristocrats who were invited by the king of a nation for a grand banquet. She took pride in seeing Ene able to do such things like move and interact with people with more than just her voice since she spent many days awake building and planning out Ene's body and because of that she sort of considered herself Ene's mother.
Malina's facial expression went from proud to sour as she reminded herself that that little devil that was Tina Antawak was more of Ene's mother considering that Tina was the one who designed and programmed a good portion of Ene. Malina quickly shook her head and tried not to think about it and instead pulled up a holoscreen from the side panel on the wall next to her and decided to set the camera to record Issei and Ene for research purposes. With the footage she could probably find ways to incorporate Lithuminite's Exitelyx tech into Ene to make her even better than she already was.
"I'll leave them to it." Malina said as she remembered Irina then picked her up and walked her back to the room that Xenovia was in. Malina was surprised when she knocked on the door and Avililith walked in.
"Thank you, pills effective. Very satisfied." Avililith said and Malina cracked a smile as she shook her head.
"Really it was nothing. Those special painkillers weren't that hard to make once Lithuminite showed me how. Plus it's never good for someone to be in unnecessary pain." Malina said with a grunt as she picked Irina up then laid her down onto the bed.
"Will try not bother. Know you're busy." Avililith said and Malina frowned at her.
"You can't keep thinking like that, if you need help then were here." Malina said as she pat the head of Avililith who looked at her curiously.
"Don't understand, Vocal explanation?" Avililith said and Malina smiled sadly.
"I'm being sympathetic and kind." Malina said and Avililith nodded her head in understanding although Malina got the feeling that she still didn't understand but didn't say anything more.
"Will stay. Watch over two." Avililith said as she pointed at Irina and Xenovia who were fast asleep and Malina nodded her head as she walked out of the room.
"Wonder if those two are done yet." Malina asked herself as she walked back down the corridor.
It was kind of a stupid question to ask because as soon as she came to the window the flashes of red and blue could be seen in the distance and Malina chuckled as she briefly looked at the holoscreen that displayed the recording information before walking to the third biosphere that was meant for military tech and study of the Exitelyx tech that Lithuminite had given them. It was kinda interesting that even though Lithuminite had been a huge help to them that she and the other D.A.R.P.A. members had already created an ionic battery that lasts a thousand times longer than any nuclear reactor would and was as small as a regular triple A battery.
There was just so much technological barriers that Lithuminite helped them completely smash through. The most focused upon subject was military and green fuel tech which had already been half solved. They now had a more efficient and cleaner type of energy but getting it applied on earth would take time seeing as the oil industry didn't want to become obsolete, even if the public pushed for it to disappear.
As Malina walked into the hangar her thoughts about energy were lost and she took more interest in the large rifles with Exitelyx levels or complexity in terms of design, laying out on tables and Lithuminite who was dematerializing and materializing all over the large hangar, helping out multiple crews with whatever it was they were doing.
"Having fun? Hey your hair looks lovely." Malina yelled up at Lithumintie who was standing above a very Exitelyx looking fighter jet.
"Thank's, Ene suggested that I complete the Gothic Lolita look by curling my hair and splitting it to both sides of my head for the "classic Loli" look. I didn't really get what that was but I kinda like the two long and curly pigtails." Lithuminite said as she looked at her dark black curly hair in her hands while Malina chuckled.
"It's a fashion trend if I remember correctly." Malina said and Lithuminite shrugged then let her hair fall back to her sides.
"Anyway. Yeah I was having fun. I helped the teams you suggested I did and ninety percent of them have finished the current projects. About to be ninety-two as soon as the ion stabilizers and neural synchronizers are installed." Lithuminite said as she disappeared from her place on the ship and reappeared next to Malina in a flash of purple particles.
"You completed the synchronization nodes?" Malina asked in slight surprise and Lithuminite nodded.
"Yeah. All it took was one scan of the pilot's brain and I could complete the mapping of his neural networks and I appropriately placed the scanning and pulse sensors." Lithuminite said and Malina smiled in slight excitement.
"I see the rifles division finished their project." Malina said as she and Lithuminite walked over to the testing rack where Malina grabbed one of the rifles and inspected it.
"I'm calling it the Vektorgewehr." Lithuminite said and Malina looked at her in slight confusion.
"Why the German name?" Malina asked as she imagined the rifes holographic scope and she was surprised when one lit up and magnified everything through the triangular holosights.
"Well I kinda used the rifle division to make an Exitelyx type rifle that I could hand over to the German military as per their request of a stronger and more efficient rifle so I decided to give it a German name." Lithuminite said and Malina sighed.
"Well as long as we can properly test them and clear them for field use then it's not really a problem." Malina said and Lithuminite turned Malina around and pointed over to a pile of melted scrap and a shiny pile of dust.
"We've already tested them and cleared them, they work perfectly and the rifle has two different settings. One for dematerialization of a certain vector, hence the vector in the name of the rifle, and a particle beam that's created and directed by flat and polished crystal lenses to melt through a target." Lithuminite said as she grabbed another of the rifles off the rack then pointed it at one of the steel plate targets and after pulling the trigger there was a small flash of red as the solid steel plate turned into a molten puddle.
"Impressive. If there's another major conflict then those will definitely be useful for taking out tanks, jets, m91's and Wolves." Malina said and Lithuminite frowned and looked at Malina confused.
"Wolves? Aren't those an endangered species on this planet. If you want to kill those then just use a regular gun." Lithuminite said and Malina smiled and laughed.
"Not that type of Wolf. There's the wolf which is an animal then there's the Wolf which is a type of highly mobile tank that has four legs that the tank can use to easily climb rocky terrain and travel at high speeds. It's armor is a nanofiber composite of mostly carbon and is insanely tough while also having hardlight shielding to make them even more annoying to deal with." Milina explained and Lithuminite nodded in understanding.
"I need to do more research on the types of weapons you humans have." Lithuminite said as she dematerialized then materialized across the hanger to help one of the teams that was calling her.
"Guess I'll save one of these for Ene." Malina said as she slung the rifle over her shoulder then started to walk back to her lab but she was stopped by Lithuminite.
"I made a new Exitelyx body for Ene so we'll have to transfer her later. I wanna test it out." Lithuminite said and Malina smiled in excitement then started to go back to her lab.
On the way to the lab Malina ran into an angry Koneko who was looking for Issei and Malina quickly told her he was training with Ene to avoid the wrath of the angry catgirl who then quickly ran off towards the airlocks and Malina sighed as she watched Koneko disappear around the corner then she turned around and found herself face to face with the green haired Exitelyx girl named Eliynx.
"Can I help you?" Malina asked and the girl stared at her blankly and didn't respond.
"Don't talk to Lithiluminite so casually. You need to know your place as a lower life form." Eliynx said as she slapped Malina hard enough to knock her over then walked away.
"The hell is wrong with her." Malina said as she picked the rifle up off the ground and rubbed her sore cheek. "Can't wait till she pisses off Issei and learns how scary he is." Malina said with a giggle as the scene of Issei scaring the shit of Elinyx played in her head while she walked back to her lab.
Once inside her lab Maline sat the large rifle onto a table then jumped into her comfortable rolly chair and checked her computer. Just some random maintenance emails and her paycheck which was suddenly a lot higher than it was before causing Malina to spit out her tea and star at the holoscreen in disbelief. Last month her paycheck was only about eight thousand and now it was nearly twenty-six thousand.
"Wonder what happened?" Malina asked to no one as she opened another holoscreen and checked her email again to see if she somehow missed an email about a drastic raise to her paycheck which she did not find and left her confused on why she was suddenly being payed so much.
Just as she was about to email a coworker she heard a knock on the door and almost had a heart attack when Issei walked in holding Ene in parts.
"ENE! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU?" Malina yelled as she ran over to Issei and Ene's severed arm waved at her.
"Issei's still trying to gauge his power and he went a bit overboard." Ene said and Malina sighed in relief that Ene was still functional.
"It looks like only the joints gave out and all the sensitive stuff is still ok." Malina said as she had Issei set Ene onto her table so she could examine the damage.
"Sorry Ene." Issei said with a frown and Ene smiled.
"It's no problem, just the joints went out so it should be fine." Ene said and Issei avoided her gaze in embarrassment.
"I guess this is the perfect opportunity." Malina said with a sigh as she tapped at her holoscreen for a second before Lithumintie materialized next to them.
"What happened here?" Lithuminite asked as she looked over Ene who smiled and waved at her.
"Issei was gauging his power and it was to much for my joints." Ene said and Lithuminite smiled.
"Good thing I made an Exitelyx body for you. Perfect timing actually." Lithuminite said as a sleek black and purple robotic frame materialized next to her.
Lithuminite pressed a few buttons on a holoscreen and some of the internal parts and the artificial skin materialized over the frame to make it look more human. All that was missing was the head and Ene's core.
"Time for another core removal." Lithuminite said and Ene's excitement over the new body diminished and was replaced with horror.
"C-Can we not?" Ene asked and Lithuminite smiled and shook her head.
"Nope, just gonna have to bear with it." Lithuminite said and Ene groaned reluctantly but opened her chest up and Lithuminite pulled the core out and Ene screamed a second before laying silently on the table. "And to the new body you go." Lithuminite said as she hooked up Ene's original head up to the new body and inserted her core. The chest of Ene's new body closed and with a mechanical winding up sound Ene's left eye opened and glowed a bright teal and the diamond shapes on her shoulders and chest lit up a bright purple.
"Ene? You ok?" Issei asked and Ene looked at him for a second before frowning.
"That hurts like hell." Ene groaned and Issei sighed in relief that she was fine.
"Ok good. Freaks me out everytime." Issei said as he sat down while Malina and Lithuminite scanned and examined Ene's new body to make sure everything was functioning correctly.
"Everything seems to be functioning. How do you feel?" Malina asked and Ene rolled her shoulders and stretched out a few times before responding.
"Besides the tingling pain from having my core ripped out everything's great. This body is way better than my old one and it's a lot more comfortable too." Ene said and Malina smiled.
"Mind taking a few more tests before I let you go?" Malina asked and Ene shook her head.
"Not a problem." Ene said.

While Ene and Malina were running tests on the new body Issei and Lithuminite had started walking around the biosphere and had started talking about random things. Although Issei's thoughts consisted of how cute Lithuminite looked with her new hairstyle.
"You're hair looks good." Issei said and Lithuminite cracked a small smiled.
"Ene suggested it." Lithuminite said and Issei chuckled.
"Figured she had." Issei said and Lithuminite spun around and walked backwards so that she could face Issei.
"So you want to do that sex thing now?" Lithuminite asked after a few minutes or awkward silence which only got more awkward with the way Lithuminite asked the question so casually.
"Like now?" Issei asked and Lithuminite nodded.
"Yeah. Everyone seems to get so excited when it's brought up and I've never done it so yeah I wanna do it." Lithuminite said and Issei sighed.
While part of him wanted to take her right then and there, the other part of him was hesitant and of course his lust won in the end.
"Sure. I guess it wouldn't hurt." Issei said Lithuminite smiled in victory then the two walked back to a private room where they wouldn't be disturbed and Lithuminite immediately stripped her clothes off.
"So how does this work exactly?" Lithuminite asked as she looked at her own naked body while Issei pulled his pants off.
"Well this goes inside you." Issei pointed to his now erect dick and Lithuminite frowned and looked at him confused.
"That big thing goes into this tiny hole." Lithuminite asked and Issei nodded.
"Yeah." Issei said and Lithuminite nodded then bent over a table and spread her cheeks apart.
"Well, get to it, I wanna hurry up and see if it's like everyone says it is." Lithuminite said and Issei walked up to her and examined her behind for a second before bringing a hand up and rubbing at her soft pussy lips making Lithuminite yelp in surprise as her hips bucked downwards.
"Relax." Issei said and Lithuminite let out a breath of air and relaxed as Issei rubbed her lower lips. A second later Lithuminite's arms and legs started to shake as she moaned in pleasure, she hadn't really felt this type of pleasure and it was almost unbearable thanks to Exitelyx being sensitive.
"I-Is this- AH!... Necessary?" Lithuminite moaned out and Issei nodded.
"Yeah, if you're not wet it's kinda uncomfortable." Issei said and Lithuminite moaned as rubbed her clit faster.
"Issei! Something feels odd down there... AAAH!" Lithuminite moaned out loudly and her hips bucked downwards as a clear liquid squirted out of her and onto Issei's hand.
"That's an orgasm." Issei said and Lithuminite breathed heavily while nodding in understanding.
"R-Right, and I'm supposed to feel another one?" Lithuminite asked and Issei nodded as he put his hands on Lithuminite's hips and pulled her towards him.
"I'm not sure if this will hurt or not for your first time but be prepared for possible pain." Issei said as he put his hands on Lithuminite's hips and pulled her over to him and lined himself up with her. "Ready?" Issei asked and Lithuminite nodded so Issei pushed himself inside her and moaned as her insides tightened down on him immediately.
"Holy shit you're so tight?" Issei said and Lithuminite moaned as she looked over her shoulder over at him.
"I-Is that a good thing?" Lithuminite asked and Issei shrugged.
"Kinda. Kinda not, depends really." Issei said as he gave her a minute to adjust before moving again.
"Is this it? It feels kinda good but not what I was expecting." Lithuminte asked and Issei shook his head then grabbed her wrist and pulled her slightly upwards and started to thrust into her causing her to yelp in surprise then moan as his large dick rubbed her insides.
"T-T-THIS IS BETTER! AAH!" Lithuminite moaned out as Issei started to thrust into her harder and faster. After a minute Issei pulled her completely upwards against his body and while thrusting into her he squeezed her small breasts with one hand and rubbed her clit with his other causing her to moan louder as her other parts were pleasured.
"Feeling good?" Issei asked and all he got back where moans of pleasure and her hand came up and pressed his further into her chest in an attempt to get him to be a bit rougher. "Ok I'll take that as a sign to continue." Issei said with a moan as Lithuminite's pussy tightened down on him whenever he slowed of stopped and he'd thrust into her a bit harder whenever he did and Lithuminite would moan and groaned as she was thrown into pleasure overload.
"I-Issei, I-I'm gonna orgasm again!" Lithuminite said and a second later she screamed out his name and her pussy spasmed in orgasm.
"Can I cum inside?" Issei asked with a moan as he didn't stop and kept pounding into her and she didn't really know what he meant and she was too focused on the new pleasure pulsing through her body so she nodded and her eyes widened when she felt something press up against her cervix and was surprised by the warm liquid that was being pumped into her.
"W-What was that?" Lithuminite asked with a moan and Issei stopped for a second.
"Sperm, liquid for reproduction. Shouldn't you know this stuff?" Issei asked and Lithuminite avoided his gaze, not wanting to seem inferior to earth and its humans who considered reproduction as common knowledge.
"Forget about that and keep doing what you're doing. It feels good." Lithuminite said and Issei sighed at her avoiding the question but did as she was told and pushed himself back inside of her and continued to thrust into her. The silence of the room quickly being replaced by Lithuminite's moans of pleasure as she was fucked harder by Issei.
"Harder! Faster! I'm close!" Lithuminite moaned and Issei pounded into her harder and she moaned louder as she was pushed closer to her orgasm which didn't take long because a few thrusts later she felt that electic like pulse of pleasure travel through her body as liquid squirted out of her pussy which was spasming in orgasm.
"Shit I'm cumming again!" Issei said and Lithuminite moaned as she felt his dick press against her insides and the warm liquid squirt into and fill up her womb.
"Aaaaaaaaaaah!" Lithuminite moaned as she felt Issei's dick twitch and the warm liquid now inside of her. "I don't want to move. It feels to good with you inside of me." Lithuminite said and Issei pulled out and she groaned in unhappiness. "This was an interesting experience, I'll have to make a full report for future research." Lithuminite said as she leaned up and was about to have Issei continue further so she could collect more data which was her excuse to feel the pleasure again, but the white lights in the room suddenly turned a bright red and an alarm sounded.
"Issei I was doing scans and an unknown object appeared in the radar and it's sending codes. Origin point is Cygnus." Ene said through the innercomm and Issei smiled in sudden excitement.
"Ene, I WAS RIGHT! THERE HAD TO HAVE BEEN SOMETHING GOING ON WITH KIC 84628521!" Issei yelled as he put his clothes on and dragged a now pissed off and not happy Lithuminite with him to the middle of the biosphere where there was a main hub where data on their surroundings were constantly collected.
"Don't get excited yet, it could be a multitude of things." Ene said as Issei ran in the door with a disappointed Lithuminite behind him.
"No it has to be aliens." Issei said as he jumped over a desk to get to Ene then looked at the scanner.
"Well the scans are kinda strange, we picked up multiple signals in ultraviolet and there's an unusual mixture of a carbon like vapor surrounding the entire Cygnus sector." Ene said as pulled up a few charts to show Issei who only got more excited.
"Those signals? That's just the automated carbon purge of the Imperial Exitelyx Dreadnought." Lithuminite said and Issei deflated into a mush of pure depression that gave off an aura of 'I don't wanna live anymore, just kill me.' while Ene tried to hold in her laughter at his sorry state.
Pushing past her amusement she turned from Issei to Lithiminite. "That ship you mentioned earlier?" Ene asked with a confused look and Lithuminite nodded, still in a sour moud that her time with Issei was interrupted by her own stupid ship.
"Tune these frequencies to this pitch... and there. Aetlias? Respond immediately to the authority of Lithiluminite Lex'xiinct Lvenkxay'Xaveylyx, operator confimation is Lyx Kastrixt'Inx Valesh." Lithuminite said and the large holoscreens in the room filled with static and the white lights of the room dimmed to a dark red.
"Conformation accepted. Operator... taking control of the room until Operator is confirmed." The voice stopped for a second then returned again. "Operator confirmed. It has been a long time since we have spoken Xien Xaylenxinfur. I assume that Valex' altilay Xenish was a failure?" Aetlias's demonic sounding voice that seemed to echo after she spoke rang throughout the room and the static filled holoscreens cleared and in the statics place was a female robot like Ene but with armor and a helmet that had a glowing red visor.
"Unfortunately it was. There are few of us left." Lithuminite replied and the robot's head seemed to dip down a bit before looking back up.
"May I be so rude as to request the names of the left over Exitelyx for historic documentation?" Aetlias asked and Lithuminite nodded.
"The Imperial Exitelyx command is shattered, there's no need for formalities. Their names are: Me, Avililith, Issei, Koneko, Kilithy, Xilithy, Myltyl, Elinyx, Dani, Gerard, Malina, Steven and Vali." Lithuminite replied and Aetlias hummed as multiple red colored holoscreens appeared and the names in black Exitelyxan text scrolled across.
"These names... they are not structured as Exitelyx. Have we finally discovered another species besides the infernal beasts?" Aetlias asked, referring to the dragons and Lithumite nodded her head.
"There are a multitude of new species, the main and largest in terms of population are the humans. There are also species known as Devil's, Angel's, Fallen Angel's, Nekomata, Werewolf and a few others that you would have to ask Issei about. I'll send files on what I've been up to later." Lithuminite replied and Aetlias cocked her head to the side in slight curiosity then lifted her arm and pointed at Issei.
"This one... Gives off abnormal readings. Exitelyx and Dragon, does it align itself with or against us?" Aetlias said as her red visor darkened in the same way Exiteltx eyes did which was a sign of anger or irritation.
"He is with us and will be my partner in ruling the rebuilt Imperial Exitelyx." Lithuminite said and as Aetlias hummed and the six knife like panels on her helmet pointed backwards like the fur on a cat when it was threatened for a minute before settling back down.
"Acknowledged. Shall I dematerialize and materialize to your current location?" Aetlias asked and Lithuminite shook her head.
"It would be nice to have your physical self here but the ship is too big for this area." Lithuminite replied and Aetlias nodded.
"If you desire me to then I will break conduct and leave the confines of the ship to assist you at your current location." Aetlias said and Lithuminite smiled.
"Forget the conduct and release locks on all emotion. You're free to do as you please unless we ever are in need of military aid." Lithuminite replied and Aetlias nodded in understanding.
"Particle acceleration vector batteries remain on standby, release targeting on sector known as "Lunar Base" Aetlias said as she tapped away at the holoscreens floating around her.
"That sounds like a gun." Ene said and Lithuminite sighed.
"Those particle acceleration batteries are massive railguns essentially. Same as my ship but the ones on the Dreadnought are significantly larger and could incinerate this place in a fraction of a second." Lithuminite explained and Ene started drooling.
"I will begin dematerialization in thirty seconds and will arrive at your exact location within point zero zero three of an error margin in three milliseconds after the thirty initial seconds. Beginning now." Aetlias said and thirty seconds later the air in the room distorted and as red particles floated around the room Aetlias materialized in front of Lithuminite.
"Taller than I expected." Ene said as she stared at Aetlias who was only an inch shorter than Issei.
"This is interesting. I've never been outside the ship." Aetlias said as she looked around the room. "Artificial oxygen. These creatures require air to live?" Aetlias asked and Lithuminite nodded.
"They are Exitelyx so they don't need it but it's probably more comfortable." Lithuminite said and Aetlias's visor flashed a bright red then she walked forward and looked over Issei.
"Readings strange. Acknowledged as Xaylenxinfur. I am Aetlias, the A.I. that controls the Imperial Exitelyx Dreadnought and serves the Imperial Family as an A.I. and a combat unit if need be." Aetlias said and her voice was just as demonic sounding as it was through the comms.
"Nice to meet you?" Issei said as he shook her hand and she looked at their connected hands confused.
"Confusion. Is it trying to damage me?" Aetlias asked as she looked to Lithuminite who shook her head.
"No it's a form of greeting used commonly among the inhabitants of earth." Lithuminite said and Aetlias's visor flashed a brighter red as the information was saved to her data banks.
"I apologize. I must acquire the data of this species culture and properly educate myself." Aetlias said and Issei gave her an awkward smile.
"I'm sure Ene can do that for you." Issei said as he pointer over to Ene and Aetlias looked over to the other A.I. in the room for a second before walking over and staring at her.
"This one is also an A.I?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Nice to meet another one of my kind." Ene said as she shook hands with Aetlias who looked at her confused.
"Is this one like me? Or is it a downgraded model?" Aetlias asked and Ene frowned.
"Who are calling downgraded?" Ene asked in sudden irritation and Aetlias sensed the hostilities and backed up slightly.
"Registering Anger. Clarification: I want to know if intelligence is matched." Aetlias corrected herself and Ene smiled.
"Of course, Lithuminite crammed everything into me so we're on equal terms right?" Ene asked as her hand squeezed Aetlias's
"Self registering pain. Registering annoyance. Clarification: Apologies for my earlier question." Aetlias said and Ene sighed and let go of her hand.
"Didn't really mean to hurt you. Sorry." Ene said and Aetlias cocked her head to the side in interest and curiosity.
"Registering satisfaction and or affection. I like this Ene." Aetlias said and Ene smiled.
"Another friend." Ene said as she sat back down in her chair and Aetlias turned back to face Lithuminite.
"What is my assignment here to be?" Aetlias asked and Lithuminite thought for a moment for a suitable job.
"Familiarize yourself with everyone here in a friendly way and download all information on humans." Lithuminite said and Aetlias nodded.
"Acknowledged." Aetlias said as she walked over and stood next to Issei. "Determined that most effective course to get information is to observe Issei. His cognitive abilities far exceed my own." Aetlias said and Issei looked at her nervously.
"Ok... I'll give you a tour I guess?" Issei said and Aetlias followed him.
"Question: What is your primary goal of getting cl- Clarification: Do you enjoy being Exitelyx?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Yeah. The hypersensitive eyes can get annoying seeing as there's lights all over this place and they're bright but other than that being an Exitelyx is great." Issei replied and Aetlias hummed.
"Suggestion: Polarized visor or Xalnily plate to replace eyes." Aetlias said and Issei laughed.
"I don't have an artificial body like yours so I can't just replace my eyes. Speaking of eyes, why don't you take that visor off and show me your face?" Issei said and Aetlias stopped in her tracks and stood completely still for a minute and seemed to be nervous but eventually she let out a small sigh and turned around to face Issei.
"Can't show eyes, can show rest of face." Aetlias said as she tapped the side of her helmet and the v shaped visor split apart and slid to the side revealing the inside of the helmet and her face.
Aetlias had a smaller v shaped visor that covered the upper half of her face but everything below her nostrils was visible. She had soft pink lips against a pale white face and salmon colored hair that peeked out in certain areas of the inside of the helmet.
"I can't see your entire face but your pretty cute." Issei said and her cheeks gained a bit of a pink tinge before the two parts of her helmet's visor slid back down and covered her face completely.
"Registering satisfaction from your response. Humans are vaguely similar to Exitelyx. They find other girls attractive." Aetlias said as the two continued to walk.
"Do you not like that I find you attractive?" Issei asked and Aetlias shook her head.
"No. It is appreciated. Very little contact with other Exitelyx. Could only talk to or interact with a select few due to protocol. Am free to do what I want now. Can interact with others. Rare delight." Aetlias said and Issei smiled.
"That's kinda sad. How about we go talk to the other Exitelyx?" Issei asked and Aetlias turned around to face him and nodded.
"Would like to. Is it possible?" Aetlias asked in slight excitement and Issei nodded.
"Sure. I'm sure Avi and Kilithy know you." Issei said and Aetlias perked up at the names.
"Registering confusion and excitement. Need clarification: Avi as in Avililith?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Yeah. She's just over here." Issei said as he pointed down the corridor towards the room where Irina and Xenovia where sleeping.
"Please let me see her." Aetlias said and Issei smiled as he led her over to the room where Avililith was.
"Avi? It's me, Aetlias." Aetlias knocked on the door and as soon as it was open Avililith had ran out of the room and hugged Aetlias who hugged her as well.
"Missed you. Wouldn't see again. Was sad. Happy now." Avililith said and Aetlias gave her a confused look.
"Registering confusion. Clarification: Are you ok? Speech pattern is fragmented." Aetlias asked worriedly and Avililith shook her head.
"Tortured. Neural network damaged. Can't control. Adapted, learned." Avililith said and Aetilas frowned in her helmet.
"Registering anger and annoyance. Who tortured you? I will kill them immediately." Aetlias asked and Avililith shook her head.
"It's ok. Issei and Ene kind. Took care of me. Killed torturer." Avililith said and Aetlias hugged Avililith again.
"Registering Satisfaction. Will have to properly thank Issei and Ene." Aetlias said as she broke the hug and turned to Issei. "You saved my friend. I will offer you my body and as thanks you can do anything you want to it. I have nothing else to give as thanks." Aetlias said and Issei shook his head.
"Sorry but I decline. Save yourself for someone you love." Issei said and Aetlias looked at him confused.
"Registering confusion. Clarification: Why? You've done something for me. It's natural to give something in return is it not?" Aetlias asked and Issei frowned.
"If you wanna thank me then a simple 'thank you' is enough. I didn't save Avi for some type of reward, I wasn't about to let an innocent girl be killed by a bunch of crazy scientists for research." Issei said and Aetlias couldn't come up with a reply, she just nodded her head in understanding for a second.
"If you will not accept my body then I will follow your suggestion and offer words: Thank you for saving Avi." Aetlias said and Issei smiled and pat the top of her helmet which she looked at confusedly.
"Registering confusion. Clarification: Is there something wrong with my helmet?" Aetlias asked and Issei chuckled.
"No, it's like a form of affection to pat someone's head I guess. I don't really know. Koneko seems to like it so I kinda assume others will too." Issei explained and Aetlias's visor flashed as she stored the information Issei had just gave her.
"Acknowledged. Interesting, weird and... unusual." Aetlias said.
"Interest: What is the Void like?" Aetlias suddenly asked after a moment of silence.
"Don't remember. Couldn't tell. Was suddenly ripped out." Avililith replied and Aetlias gave her a disappointed look.
"Unsatisfaction: I will ask Lithiluminite later. For now however, I wish to sit and recharge. Is there an area that I can relax in?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Uh yeah. There's a mess hall where everyone eats. It's usually quiet there." Issei said and Aetlias looked at him again in interest.
"Curiosity: Mess hall? Clarification: An area for interaction and consumption of edibles?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Yes." Issei said and Aetlias hummed.
"Interest: Please take me to this mess hall." Aetlias said and Issei led her down her and Avililith down the hallway.
While walking down the hallway Aetlias's visor often lit up and changed color along with the flaring of lights and holoscreens that were reacting to her accessing the station's V.I. which was communicating with her and confirming that she was not a harmful entity which it did target her as and was now trying to break her code apart and get rid of.
"Annoyance: You're stations V.I. is targeting me as a foreign entity and is actively trying to break me down." Aetlias said as a few holoscreens circled around her with Exitelyx and human lines of code interacting with each other.
"Don't shut it off cause the humans need oxygen. Use this code and set it as a IFF." Issei said as he held out his phone which had his IFF ID and Aetlias nodded as she added it to herself.
"Thank you." Aetlias said as the holoscreens surrounding her disappeared and her visor switched from a dark red to a light red.
"Here we are." Issei said as he taped a button on a small holoscreen being displayed from a panel next to the door and the door opened to a large room with tables and machines with food on them.
"This is vaguely similar to Exitelyx resting area's. Food and or artificial blood shards offered as consumables and tables to sit and communicate." Aetlias said as she walked over and sat down at the first table she saw.
As Issei and Avililith sat down the air around the table distorted and a few seconds later two small black pyramids materialized onto the table. After Aetlias looked at the two small objects on the table for a second she then looked up to Issei and seemed to be thinking about something.
"I need assistance. Would you help me?" Aetlias asked after a minute and Issei nodded.
"Sure. What is it you need help with?" Issei asked and Aetilais's visor flashed a bit brighter then her chest split apart in a similar fashion to Ene's and right where her breasts would have been there were two similar objects to Ene's core.
"Please remove these two Exilyon cores and replace them with the ones on the table." Aetlias asked and Issei looked at the probably sensitive parts hesitantly.
"Ok." Issei said after a few seconds of reluctancy as he got up and walked around the table to Aetlias who turned around in the chair to face him.
Issei reached out and grabbed one of the cores which caused Aetlias to flinch and he immediately let go to see if she was ok and she urged him to continue. Grabbing the core again he pulled it and as soon as it popped out of her she slammed her fist onto the table, putting a massive dent into it and groaning as her fist clenched.
"Hey are you ok?" Issei asked and Aetlias nodded.
"Yes. Please continue." Aetlias said and Issei pulled her core out with a flinch as she groaned again.
Issei quickly grabbed the other two cores and pushed them inside of the empty spaces and Aetlias let out a moan of satisfaction when he did. Once the two cores were in place Aetlias's chest closed up and she shook her head slightly then tapped the side of her helmet and her visor split apart and moved to the side as she leaned back and stretched out.
"This place offers food?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Will get... you some. Know good stuff." Avililith said cheerfully as she hopped over to one of the machines then opened the lid on the top and picked out few pieces of fried chicken which she put onto a paper plate as she moved over to the next machine which had mashed potatoes. After she had the chicken and mashed potatoes she grabbed a spoon and a cup which she filled with soda then she walked back over to the table and sat the cup and plate in front of Aetlias who looked at the plate confused
"This mush and liquid is food?" Aetlias asked and Avililith nodded.
"Her just try it." Avililith said as she scoped up some of the mashed potatoes then pushed it into Aetlias's mouth.
Aetlias's chewed on the mashed potatoes for a few seconds before swallowing and as she did her lips curled upwards just slightly in a smile. Aetlias opened her mouth and Avililith smiled as she feed Aetlias who couldn't get enough of the salty mush that was the mashed potatoes on her plate.
"This mushy substance is delicious." Aetlias said as she looked from the mashed potatoes to the chicken.
Avililith got the hint and she held up a piece of chicken for Aetlias who bit it from her hand and immediately ate the thing whole.
"What is this!? It's so good!" Aetlias said as she ate another piece.
"It's called chicken." Issei said and Aetlias hummed.
"It's good." Aetlias said and she ate the remaining pieces of chicken then took a sip of the soda and it surprised her that it was so sweet. "What is this? It's super sweet." Aetlias asked as she downed the cup of sugary soda then let out a small burp.
"It's called soda." Issei said and Aetlias's visor flashed again.
"I like this food." Aetlias said as she wiped her mouth off then taped the side of her helmet to close her visor again.
"We got plenty of it to go around." Issei said as he sipped at his own drink.
"I've charged completely and I've picked up a faint signal coming from the Altivaega. I would like to trace the signal back to the ship." Aetlias said and Issei looked at her confused. He didn't remember another ship so he got interested.
"Altivaega. Outside, not far. Crashed." Avililith said and Issei deflated again at hearing it was just the name of Lithuminite's ship.
"Curiosity: Is it intact?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded
"For the most part." Issei replied and Aetlias looked over towards the window of the cafeteria towards where the ship located.
"Hyper particle acceleration drives detected. Re registering under identification system." Aetlias said as Exitelyxan text rapidly flashed by on her visor for a few seconds before disappearing. "Nanite composite construct offline. Error. Frustration: Manual ship repair program reinitiate required." Aetlias said as she happily took a sip of her now refilled cup of soda.
"I will return shortly. Clarification: I'm going back to the Dreadnought to upload data to central hub." Aetlias said and as the air distorted slightly before she disappeared from the room.
"Ok then." Issei said awkwardly and Avililith smiled at him.
"Forgive. Disabled emotions. Efficiency increase." Avililith said and Issei nodded in understanding.
"Yeah I kinda figured. Ene sometimes does the same. Kinda creepy when she doesn't smile." Issei said and just as he did Aetlias materialized next to him and immediately took another sip of her drink which was obviously her new favorite even though she really didn't need food or drink to live but her body could break it down and turn it into energy.
"Issei... Lithiluminite has just informed me that you are Xaylenxinfur to be so as an A.I. sworn to the Imperial Exitelyx I have to inform you that I am to assist you with anything and everything you desire." Aetlias suddenly said and Issei looked at her confused for a second before smiling awkwardly.
"I-Is that right?... Um... Ok. Thank you I guess?" Issei said as he looked over to Avililith who shrugged at him.
"Exitelyx life signs detected. The one known as Koneko is looking for you." Aetlias said to Issei who looked over to the door that Koneko entered in and watched her wander around for a few seconds before calling her over.
"Koneko, I'm over here." Issei waved and she quickly ran over to him.
"Looked everywhere for you." Koneko said as she looked over to Aetlias and hissed at her slightly.
"Another one?" Koneko hissed and Issei pat her head to calm her down.
"She's friendly." Issei said and Koneko glared at Aetlias through her visor.
"Species is Exitelyx and Nekomata. No human dna remaining." Aetlias said to herself as her text flashed on her visor for a few seconds before disappearing.
"Who is this?" Koneko asked and Aetlias looked at her for a minute before responding.
"Aetlias. Imperial Exitelyx A.I." Aetlias said and Koneko sighed. Another Ene to add to the collection of rapidly growing robot girls in Issei's harem.
"Issei's mine. You can't have him." Aetlias said and Aetlias nodded.
"That is correct. I'm an Imperial Exitelyx combat A.I. It's explicitly programmed into us that we are not to have relationships nor do I deserve someone of Issei's stature even if I were allowed to have a relationship." Aetlias said and Koneko was at a loss for words at how to respond to the slightly and unexpectedly depressing response from Aetlias.
"That's kinda sad." Issei said and Aetlias shook her head.
"Incorrect. Active relationship between military members decreases efficiency by thirty-four percent." Aetlias said and Issei couldn't argue with her as she was correct in saying that a relationship could cause a dip in efficiency seeing as they would worry over one another.
"A.I. are granted permission to a romantic A.I. partner if they so desire." Aetlias said and Issei found himself curious by this.
"So you have been in a relationship before?" Issei asked in interest and Aetlias shook her head.
"For research purposes they tried to give me a few despite my disagreement and the ones that were implemented with me were destroyed. My cores are much too powerful for any other A.I. to support. Integration of another A.I. core with mine will result in a rather unpleasant and painful demise." Aetlias said and Issei frowned as what she said was more depressing than her previous statement. You'd think with Exitelyx technology that this could be easily solved but there were some limitations to Exitelyx technology. "Don't worry about this. It has affected me in no way and will not interrupt my main priorities." Aetlias added and Issei sighed.
"So depressing." Koneko mumbled and Issei nodded in agreement.
"Aetlias? Just so you know: Everyone here is pretty nice and will gladly be your friend." Issei said and Aetlias looked at him curiously.
"Curiosity: Friend like Avi?" Aetlias asked and Issei nodded.
"Most humans are by human standards "decent people" and the ones on this station won't be afraid of or try to attack you. Maybe the V.I. but that's a technical issue." Issei replied and Aetlias nodded in understanding.
"Issei I picked up transmissions and a country will shortly be sending a volley of surface to surface bombardment to our approximate location. I advise we leave quickly." Ene said telepathically to Issei who looked at the wall skeptically. It wasn't too long ago they made themselves known and a country is already going to attack them
"Who put out the order?" Issei asked and Ene seemed to hesitate before answering.
"Russia's leader, Vadim Vyacheslav." Ene said and Issei frowned and glared at the earth.
"That bastard, after I helped save him and his sisters ass he plans to do this? Are you sure it was him that issued the order.?" Issei asked and Ene whispered a 'yes' to which Issei slammed his hand down on the table, making another large dent next to the one Aetlias made. "How are they supposed to be attacking?" Issei asked.
"The BBA 874 will launch 75 explosive tipped Tri-Fang missiles equipped with extra fuel tanks and an advanced T.I. guiding system followed by a squadron of standard issue M91 combat mechs for clean up." Ene said and Issei frowned.
"A bit mu- Wait didn't you say Russia was passing us off as United States propaganda material?" Issei asked and he could sense Ene's eyes widen at that statement.
"You're right! And how would Russia have M91's? Only one country has successfully been able to develop any type of large scale mech suit. And what about the Tri-Fang missiles? Those are insanely expensive and advanced missiles that... those are U.S. missiles." Ene said as everything clicked and made sense. "The U.S. planned to launch missiles at us then blame it on Russia. Causing the already thin line of the U.S. Russian alliance to crumble and allow for a declaration of war. This was planned out the moment the U.S. heard of our existence!" Ene said and Issei smiled.
"Dirty grease trap of a nation." Issei said out loud and everyone looked at him confused
"What are you talking about?" Koneko asked and Issei realised what he said and smiled at her.
"Oh uh, I was talking to Ene about something." Issei said as he leaned over to Aetlias.
"Can you dematerialize everyone on the moon except Ene and take them to the Dreadnought?" Issei asked in a whisper and Aetlias nodded. "Keep quiet about this and make sure there's oxygen to breath as many of the crew here are human." Issei said and Aetlias nodded at his requests.
"When shall I carry this out?" Aetlias asked.
"Within the next thirty seconds." Issei replied and Aetlias nodded again.
"Acknowledged. Dematerialization now." Aetlias said and everyone in the room disappeared.
"Ene. I had Aetlias dematerialize everyone and materialize them into the dreadnought. What are we gonna do about those missiles?" Issei asked and Ene materialized next to him and shrugged.
"I just picked up the transmission. The missiles have launched and will arrive in just a few minutes. We could shoot them down but I advise against this as I learned that their ignition system is nuclear, not additional fuel cells like I thought. This place will be destroyed." Ene said and Issei frowned.
"Well let's not stick around then. I just wanted to make sure everyone else was safe before we left." Issei said and Ene nodded.
"Dammit we just built this place too." Ene said as she grabbed Issei's hand and the two dematerialized and materialized in what looked like a desert but not exactly a desert. This place was much to red and orange colored to be a desert of earth.
"Where are we?" Issei asked and Ene looked around confused.
"Huh? We're on mars? Wait no that's not right either. We should have materialized on earth but I instead brought us here." Ene said and Issei sighed as he turned around to look behind him.
"How did you manage to do thaaaaaa... Ene what the hell is this?" Issei asked as he grabbed Ene's head and turned it in the same direction he was looking at.
"Issei... What the hell is this?" Ene asked and Issei shook his head.
"Don't steal my question. I asked what it was first." Issei said and Ene didn't respond, just stared out in front of her.
Gonna end it there. An explanation for why this chapter was so short is because I had some things to do in real life that required me to stay off my laptop which is odd because I'm a lazy piece of shit so that's why it's a short chapter. Next chapter might be a bit longer but I'm kinda busy so chapters are probably gonna be slower. And with that I ask the ancient question yet again: Why the fuck do I write these authors notes? Only like 2 people actively read this and I doubt they give a shit so why?
Also, to that one fuckface who took the time to send 67 fucking messages insulting me and this story I hope you step on a hundred of the sharpest and pointiest lego's that exist.
Whatever. Krulucifer Von Layfon fucking off, SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh~
Also, to that one guy who may or may not be a friend irl who harassed me with pm's begging for more Issei x Koneko, I promise more Issei x Koneko soon. You know who you are... fucker.
