npc is a heartthrob [hologram]

[Butterless] said: Do you want to talk?

——[Bertram] saw this information in the novice guide when it went online the next day.

His dark eyes looked towards the stone house where [Adonis] was, with obscure emotions flickering on and off, and the light of his eyes was half covered by his thin eyelashes.

After being silent for a while, [Bertram] walked away from the orcs——he summoned [Bertram] after reaching a place inaccessible.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" [Bertram] stood still in place, with a cold expression on his upright face.

What he said was obviously a question, but there was no ripple in his tone, as if he didn't care about the answer to the question... or even the question itself.

"I'm the same person as you. So you know what I want to talk about?"

The [Burtles] standing opposite him has exactly the same appearance as him, and the indifference between the brows and eyes is exactly the same. The appearance of them standing face to face will make people unconsciously feel confused——they are mirror images of each other, and the essence connected.

"If it's related to Adonis." [Bertram] narrowed his eyes casually, "then there's no need to talk about it."

"...It turns out that I am also someone who can escape." [Birtles] was taken aback after hearing this sentence, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised a mocking but clear arc, "Emotions are indeed a very wonderful thing .”

[Bertram] The coldness on his face became deeper and deeper.

"Did you see that when I treated Adonis before? I like him for that."

[Birtles] stretched out his hand and touched his earlobe: "Let me guess, you are already thinking about when is the best time to kill me?"

"After all, if Adonis can fall in love with a Bertram, he may fall in love with a Bertram who is exactly like him... It is too dangerous to keep such a person who is exactly like himself."

"Did you think so?"

[Birtles] pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and played with it skillfully and dexterously.

He put the dagger against his throat, his black eyes narrowed slightly, the cold light of the blade contrasted with the white neck with prominent veins, quietly arousing the tyranny hidden in the depths of his heart.

"Just like this, once the knife goes down - with a 'click', no one will pose a threat to you."

"Yeah." [Bertram] was not affected by the words of his clone, he pinched his earlobe extremely calmly to make his thoughts clearer, "Since you know that you will die sooner or later, find a place How about suicide?"

[Butterless]: ...

"Tsk."

The replica snorted lightly, and the tone was as expected and taken for granted.

"Sure enough, I wasn't fooled... So it's troublesome to compare tricks with myself."

——In the instructions for using the contract of life and death, there is a line of extremely small words that most people can't see: If the player kills the npc without a reasonable reason, the npc can decide whether to cancel the contract and fight back.

"Well, I'm destined to die anyway... just do one last thing for Adonis before I die."

[Bertras] inserted the dagger back into the sheath in his sleeve, and after straightening his sleeves slowly, he raised his head and looked at [Bertram], with a solemn and serious look on his indifferent face .

"Abandon the mission, Bert Rhyme."

……

"impossible."

[Bertram]'s refusal was almost blurted out.

"Has Adonis' favor already made your IQ negative?" [Birtles] couldn't help mocking the person standing in front of him, "You won't get any rewards for this task, and it will even make you lose your IQ." Adonis is in pain."

"Humans, Adonis has been waiting in that dark alley for someone to take him home, undead and dwarves, Adonis has endured years of loneliness... and orcs, he has witnessed bloody killing."

"If it weren't for your stubborn refusal to give up, he would never need to experience this! His setting is a 'god', and he only needs to sit on the throne of God to accept the worship of all creatures in the vr continent."

"But because of you...he fell from the throne and fell into the abyss where he couldn't recover."

"Bert Rhyme, is this what you want?"

"It's just because I want to get Adonis' love, and I want to greedily occupy all the tenderness."

"You let me know that I also have such despicable times. Don't you think your love is as disgusting as a cockroach in the gutter."

[Bertles] leaned against the wall with his arms folded, his light-colored thin lips slightly raised a mocking arc, and the darkness hidden in his half-dozed black eyes mercilessly turned into a ferocious beast at the stunned [Bertels] at this moment. Lyme] Push it down.

……

"Is that so."

[Bertram] closed his eyes.

——Because [Birtles] never got the love of [Adonis], so he is more sober than anyone else.

——[Bertram] is aware of this fact.

He remembered that he once ran to the nanny robot, raised his head and asked it expressionlessly—"Do you take care of me so seriously because you like me?"

According to the set program, the nanny robot that detected the last few words said the words "I like the little master" without hesitation, cold and mechanical, with a dead air like a tomb.

At that time [Bertram] nodded coldly, and didn't say anything more.

The next day, he disassembled the machine, reassembled it into the appearance that best suited his aesthetics, and reprogrammed it.

—It is unnecessary to take the opinion of an emotionless creature seriously.

His father, whom he only saw once when he was eight years old, said this to him.

He also made the most human-psychological response—he kept this sentence firmly in his heart.

A cold-tempered human named Bert Rhyme met the first artificial intelligence that he thought was truly 'alive', and at the same time as this idea appeared, was a world that had suddenly changed——

After meeting you, my world changed from black and white to color.

The beating of the heart was uncontrollable for the first time, the slightly curved eyebrows were stained with a pure smile for the first time, and the cold eyes softened into water-like warmth for the first time.

——Is this what you like?

I like you.

Adonis.

While immersed in this emotion and feeling rejoiced, the same inferiority complex and lack of self-confidence gradually entangled my heart.

Can artificial intelligence really fall in love with humans?

[Bertram] I don't know the answer.

So he is unwilling to give up this system task without any rewards, unwilling to give up the opportunity to monopolize [Adonis], and unwilling to give up the hope of making [Adonis] like him.

——I will work hard to learn to 'like' this emotion.

In the city of the undead, the npc that gradually turned into a spot of light smiled as beautifully as an iris flower. He leaned over and kissed the player's brow, as soft as the caress of a spring breeze.

——That... I like Bom too.

Steel Fortress, the NPC who had just delivered a gift made by himself pinched the corner of his clothes, awkward and shy emotions appeared on his dirty cheeks, and his ears moved uncomfortably.

……

"I've been in a daze for a long time, have you thought of anything?" [Burtles] tilted his head leaning against the wall, and closed his eyes in an obscure tone, "It's never the appearance that makes people obsessed, but It is unconditionally tolerant tenderness."

"Isn't it?"

He opened his deep eyes, the light in them was dim, but they were as soft as the blossoming cherry blossoms.

"...Say a lot of sarcasm with jealousy." [Bertram] lazily straightened the hair on his forehead, "You also let me see my ugly face that I have never shown before. .”

[Bertelles] gave a disdainful 'tsk'.

"Anyway, I will seriously consider your proposal." [Bertram] was finally willing to face up to his duplicate body, "You should also be prepared to die at any time."

His tone and expression were as cold and light as a glacier on a high mountain, but mixed with seriousness that could not be ignored.

[Birtles] didn't reply, his gaze focused on the right hand he had treated for [Adonis], and after a long pause, he suddenly and spontaneously returned to the contract space.

The cold air invaded, freezing his body bit by bit—[Birtles], who never wanted to fall into a deep sleep, slowly closed his eyes.

[Bertram] stopped at the spot for a while, looked at the barren scene in the barren land, pursed his lips, and followed the light group to the location of [Adonis].

[Adonis] sitting on the stone platform dangled his slender legs, his silver hair scattered behind him, forming an abstract painting with soft lines.

His blue eyes looked towards [Bertram] after hearing the footsteps, and a little bit of gentleness diffused into his eyes, with the brilliance of autumn red leaves.

"Boom."

He stood up from the stone platform, and ran towards [Bertram] who was walking towards him, his black robe fluttering, revealing his snow-white skin.

"I thought Bom wouldn't be here today...I've been waiting for a long time."

Hearing this sentence, [Bertram] froze for a moment, he stroked [Adonis]'s smooth silver hair as if nothing had happened, and the corner of his mouth slightly curved into a pure smile.

"Sorry... for being late."

In [Adonis]'s eyes, there is the loneliness that he has deliberately ignored all this time.

[Bertram] opened the novice guide——

[System]: Congratulations to the player for completing the task 'Let [Adonis] be bound by your side voluntarily'.

Yes, this race has been tasked with... getting the orc [Adonis], who loves freedom by nature, to voluntarily stay by his side and stop wandering around.

[Bertram] His dull heart suddenly relaxed a lot after seeing this system prompt - he tapped the words 'abandon the mission' firmly with his fingers.

"Donnie... I'm going to tell you something."

[Adonis] looked sideways at him, with doubts on his delicate and flawless face.

"It's just... I like you."

"You... didn't you say it a long time ago? Why do you say it again now? I tell you that I won't be shy..."

[Adonis], who was tossed about by the unexpected confession, expressed that he didn't want to deal with this shameless human being.

"Again, increase proficiency."

[Bertram] stroked [Adonis]'s hair reassuringly, and the smile between his brows and eyes became deeper.

I like you.

So... hope you live with a smile on your face.

"Familiarity... Proficiency?! Boom, do you want to say this to many people?! Then I don't like you anymore! qaq!"

Ado·disappearing·Niss wronged Bala and said that Bom is a big liar!
