Chapter 5 - Mon

***

why? Why did I dream of that past incident again? Even though it was five years ago, how those memories are still imprinted in my brain.

"Ryu! Wake up! Breakfast is ready!"

"Yes, I'm coming."

Yes, here I am now. Not just a human with his madness for cyborgs who later became a cyborg, but I coincidentally became a God.

In the book, I read, the title God used to belong to 7 scientists who were the originators of Cyborgs. They madly changed their physical appearance into full cyborgs with technology that they never shared with the public, certainly not shared with any company. And that's what made their existence suddenly disappear, now they are just a myth that is commonly heard.

"Here, your breakfast."

"Thank you, Yuna."

The scientists who get the title of God have their uniqueness, this uniqueness is called Unique Skill. Generally derived from the basic elements that exist in this world, starting from the Fire God, Water God, Crystal God, Wind God, Ice God, and Electro God. But there is only one who has a very strange Unique Skill, and his name is Steel God, from what I can catch he can control anything that smells of iron. In one history he is told as the strongest of all the other Gods, he can easily control other cyborgs. But how can I become Electro God, if they disappeared 100 years ago?

"Ryu... Ryu!"

Yuna's scream woke me up from my daydream.

"Ryu... are you okay?"

"Yes, I am okay."

"Are you still thinking about that Electro God thing?"

"Yes."

"Indeed, this is very strange. Even though all of your cyborg parts are nothing strange, and all come from your research results. But how can that be?"

"Wait a minute!"

I coincidentally realized something.

"Eh? What's wrong Ryu?"

"There it is!"

"What's wrong with you?!"

"If this God awakening factor is a cyborg body part, then the only cyborg part that I don't know the origin of is this heart!"

Right, if that's what I think it is. So the heart I'm currently using is the heart of the previous Electro God, moreover, during the first operation, I didn't know whose heart this was.

"That can't be it..."

"Isn't it? Ah! I want to examine my heart!"

Damn, my disgusting habit is out again.

"Stop!"

Suddenly I realized, Yuna slapped my face, and when I saw my right hand was holding a kitchen knife and pointing it right in front of my heart.

"Do you want to kill yourself?"

"Uh... I'm sorry."

I simply let go of the knife, Yuna looked worriedly at me.

"I'm sorry."

Gently she began to hug me, and slowly stroked my back.

"You can research whatever you want, but at least... take care of yourself. I don't want to lose..."

"Yuna?"

"No! Forget my last sentence!"

Wow, she was shy, she returned to her seat and started eating her breakfast in a hurry. She's cute.

"Yuna."

"What?!"

"Hehehe."

"Why are you laughing!"

"No, I just thought you were quite cute too huh."

"Huh?!"

At that time she got up from her seat and started chasing me, she chased me all over the room. In the end, I gave in and stopped, at that moment she jumped up and hugged me.

"Caught you!"

"No... I was caught, someone help me."

I scoffed a bit.

"Ryu! Stop playing!"

"Hehehe."

***

"Yuna..."

"What?!"

"Are you still mad?"

"Up to you."

Right now, I'm being punished by her. She made me a chair at the dining table, she casually ate his breakfast. Even though I haven't finished eating yet, she's just enjoying herself at my house.

"I'm done, you're free."

"Thank you, mam!"

"Hey!"

"Yes?"

She brought her face closer to my chest. Her body is much shorter than mine, like it or not only my chest that he can reach with his head.

"Sorry."

"It doesn't matter."

"Sorry if I was selfish."

"It's okay, how many years do you think we've been together?"

8 AM

We casually walked through the city of Electron, today we are off. Boss suddenly asked all the members to take a day off, who knows what that idiot was thinking?

"Let's hurry! You'll be late!"

Late middle schoolers, look like my friends from school. Oh yes, now how are they?

"Watch out!"

When we woke up we saw one of the children crossing the road without paying attention to the red light, quickly came a truck that had lost control.

"OMG! Watch out!"

I quickly ran towards her, swiftly hugged the girl, and held the truck with my cyborg's arm. Unexpectedly, the front of the truck was destroyed and left a little splash of electrons around it. This is... unexpected.

"Are you okay?"

"This brother..."

"You!"

Whether it's a coincidence or not, the girl I'm helping is the same girl who helped me during the rain yesterday.

"Ryu!"

"Agnes!"

Agnes? Oh, so that's this girl's name.

"Ryu, are you okay?"

"Agnes, are you all right?"

"Yes, I am okay."

At that time we answered simultaneously, our eyes met and immediately we laughed.

"Ha ha ha!"

What a strange girl.

"Thank you, next time I will repay you for your kindness."

"There's no need, it's precisely this time that I repay your kindness yesterday. I'm sorry for yesterday, and please keep it a secret, ok?"

"Oh! Aye Cybrog big brother!"

Thank goodness she understood what I meant, because if my identity as a killer was spread among the common people then I would definitely be arrested, and that girl would be constantly harassed by journalists and the police.

"Who was that?"

"Oh, she's just a nice girl worried about my cyborg hand getting caught in the rain."

"Hem, very rare humans like now."

"Yeah, humans seem to be pretty rare already."

Humans in this era were like robots, most of them were just selfish people. Not caring about other people, even if they are too heavy to stretch out their hands. That is why it is so rare to find poor people because they all starve to death.

"Ryu, what's wrong?"

"No, let's go."

There are only a few good people in this world, at least for me. They are my brother, Lucifer, Yuna, and that girl. Apart from them, I consider all humans to be the same, even though I am not much different from them. At least I don't want to let go of these gentle hands, it's enough that I have lost the people I care about. Even if that girl is in danger, I will quickly come to save her. Although, I am... a killer.

"Let's see..."

Right now we are shopping at the supermarket near our house, we have to buy lots of monthly needs.

"That's all. Ryu, are you sure you don't want to buy some machine maintenance?"

"No, there's no need. I don't believe in mass production."

"Hehehe, you mad scientist."

"And you are both the mad scientist's assistant and friend."

"Ouch! You! You bastard!"

She started hitting me again, but it didn't hurt at all. Seriously, what did she do while going abroad, even though she was gone for a year buts he was very weak. Well, it's okay. I'll take care of it.

"Everyone down!"

Suddenly there was a continuous gunshot, what happened?

"This is an armed robbery!"

"This is strange, this area has very little crime because it's under AlphaOne's surveillance, but how... Wait!"

I was so shocked that I realized something if this area is safe because AlphaOne is here, then the only criminal in this area is… AlphaOne himself.

"Quickly grab everything we need, then finish off everyone in here. It doesn't matter if they're humans or cyborgs, kill all of them."

It was Mon, I knew there must be something wrong if the members were suddenly told to take a day off.

"Hey! You guys are there right?!"

Shit! Did he even notice me?!

"Ryu! Yuna! Get out of here!"

We were caught!

"If you don't come out, I'll kill this kid!"

"Help me!"

He took a hostage! What's wrong with him today? He's acting like he's not his usual self!

"One..."

"No! Mama!"

"Two..."

"Mama!!!"

" three…"

"Okay, I'm out! Now, what do you want?!"

"Hehehe, how stupid you are."

Quickly he shot me, the bullet until... through my body.

"Ryu!"

"What... what is this... Mon!"

"I'm not Mon, from now on I'm a God."

"What?!"
