She Is an Artificial Weapon, My Mechanical Angel

In the ruins of hell, I found a weapon abandoned by the gods.

Silver hair, blue eyes, codename SA-07: a perfect killing machine who smiles at the sight of a piece of candy.

She is the only pure white thing in my filthy life, a treasure this black crow, who lives only through pain, foolishly dreams of keeping for himself.

I want to keep her far from all filth and madness, but fate has laid an even deeper snare for me.

My childhood friend, bearing a brand, tears open the painful truth. The princess of Moon City forges a cage in the name of love. A cybernetic ghost screams in the depths of the data abyss...

And many, many more await us on the road of destiny...

They all want to "save" me, yet drag me into an even deeper mire.

Meanwhile, my mechanical angel is transforming into a queen who no longer needs me.

To draw near is to taint her; to protect her is to lose her.

Before this broken body burns out, can I steal for her a sliver of moonlight untouched by corruption?
