Heavy Industry, My Mecha Has a Heart

The night a meteorite struck me, a drop of silver liquid burrowed into my palm.

The next day, I flipped an entire alley with a thought.

Later, the government came looking for me. They said I was the only awakened person in the history of the Anomalous Affairs Bureau who had voluntarily cooperated with registration.

Later still, I met her.

She was smarter than AI, deadlier than a weapon, more perfect than a human. But she had no body heat, no heartbeat, no soul, or so the people who made her claimed.

Yet when she took a high-energy particle cannon blast meant for me, a drop of something slid from the corner of her eye. The System log identified it as an “unknown error.”

The entire universe believes humanity is prey.

Until the silver war goddess rises from the urban village.

The rise of a great nation is an epic forged in blood and iron, and you are the ultimate romance on a cosmic scale.
