1.
The infinite game I designed began to hunt me.
I brought out an NPC while escaping from death.
He is like a sophisticated AI with a huge knowledge base, but unfortunately his emotional value is zero.
It will short-circuit in rainy days and crash when exposed to water.
But when I was in danger, he said in a straight tone:
"Protocol conflict. Core command: protect you, highest priority."
I looked at the garbled words flowing in his eyes and suddenly realized
——This bug is probably the greatest design mistake in my life.

Later I discovered that I was the only one who could take him between the two worlds.
He followed me home and learned to use a microwave and water the green plants.
Also late at night, he would press the muzzle of the gun to my temple and say in a cold voice:
"Player Wen Li, please explain——"
"Why are you all in my database?"
A warning pops up in his system every day: [Abnormal loading of emotion module]
And I know it well:
The abnormal thing is not him, but me who is writing his heartbeat.
3.
Until the truth behind this game crisis emerges.
They say he is the lock that holds the two worlds together.
When he returns to his position, the game ends and he is trapped in the void forever.
If you stay, reality will collapse and all things will be buried with it.
All voices screamed: Sacrifice him! This is the only solution!
But I pressed the third button in front of him.
"Listen."
I wiped the rain marks off his face.
"My specialty is not saving the world, but changing the rules."
"I'm going to rewrite this fucking ending for you."

Now, my god is kneeling at my knees, his mechanical heart beating against my palm.
"Command confirmation." He raised his head and showed his first human smile.
"Do you want to permanently bind administrator rights?"
I leaned forward and planted a kiss on his lips.
"The agreement takes effect."
"Congratulations on completing the level, my creation."
"Welcome to our reality."
