"Freedom is a gift from heaven, and every individual of the same species has the right to enjoy it as soon as he is in enjoyment of his reason."—Denis Diderot, French philosopher from Earth.
Did one's own will stem from memories, from knowledge, or from the soul itself? This was a question that nobody would be able to answer.
From a certain standpoint, the Sky Tower Spirit had made a huge mistake. Since he was an artificial intelligence, the first reaction he had after obtaining freedom was to break off the proverbial shackle on his neck. In order to achieve this, he was even willing to attempt to slaughter his original master.
However, he didn't consider what another artificial soul would do first upon receiving true freedom.
Indeed, while S1 bent the rules and activated the effects of that training facility to create five completely independent spiritual creatures, S1 foolishly gave these spiritual creatures their own will.
