“Sir Knight, what are you doing?”

“This guy is definitely a problem.”

As Duanmu Huai spoke, he pulled out his Mechanical Sword and plunged it directly next to the man’s neck, forcing his chin up.

“Who… who are you? What are you trying to do?!”

“Speak up, did you create the killer puppet? What are you trying to do?”

Duanmu Huai couldn’t be bothered to outwit him. If he were playing his former character with maxed-out charm, he could slowly resolve things through conversation and persuasion. But now, Duanmu Huai’s charm clearly lacked the ability to “persuade”, and only had “intimidation”. So he could only use it this way — while his former character did have the “intimidation” option, Duanmu Huai seldom used it.

Although “intimidation” could get an answer too, the cost was a decrease in goodwill. Duanmu Huai had always tried to avoid such situations in the past, but now… he couldn’t care less about such trivial matters.

“What? What killer doll? I don’t know! I know nothing, let me go!”

The man struggled desperately, but Duanmu Huai remained unmoved, keeping the blade of his sword against his neck.

“It’s a white-haired puppet that looks exactly like this girl. She’s been roaming around the city killing people lately. You can’t be saying you have nothing to do with this.”

“I… I don’t know.”

“Buzz—————!!!”

The chainsaw began to whirl madly. Duanmu Huai locked his icy gaze on the man, speaking in a cold voice.

“That’s fine, keep denying, I’ll slowly cut off your arms, then your legs, then open up your body, and finally turn you into your favorite puppet… how does that sound?”

“Gulp… gulp… ”

Hearing Duanmu Huai’s threat, the man’s face was pale as death, his body trembling uncontrollably, even gasping heavily. Duanmu Huai, unfazed, moved the Mechanical Sword, aiming at his shoulder.

“I know! I’ll tell you everything, alright?!”

Finally, at this moment, the man couldn’t resist Duanmu Huai’s threats any longer and chose to surrender.

“Then, tell us, what exactly is going on?”

“Alright… I’ll start talking….”

Soon, the man divulged the whole story to everyone present.

Unexpectedly, this man named Liam was not only a Puppeteer Master, but he was even the apprentice of the Puppeteer Master who had created Ogis!

Upon hearing the news that his master had used the Magic Puppet to destroy a nation, Liam rushed back in wake of the nation’s turmoil, he secretly left with the notes and materials left by his master. After reviewing those materials, Liam was also drawn to the “puppet with a heart” described therein. Therefore, he walked down the same path as his master—attempting to create a puppet with a heart.

“I believe that the essence of a puppet is not a toy created to mimic the human form, but a friend to comfort the human soul. If successful, it should bring some comfort to people…. ”

With this idea in mind, Liam, following the records in the notebook, ultimately created Gavi.

However, Gavi was completely different from the “puppet with a heart” Liam had hoped for. As Duanmu Huai and others had previously observed. Her mind was extremely unstable, in a state of madness. A puppet with a mental illness like this could not possibly be a good friend to humans, nor could it provide any spiritual comfort. Hence, Liam considered this experiment a failure.

“She was successful, so why did Gavi fail?! I followed every step, how could there be such a difference?!”

As he spoke, Liam glared at Ogis, his eyes aflame with a burning fervor. Sensing his gaze, Ogis took a small step backward. Witnessing this, excitement surged within Liam.

“Just like that! That’s the puppet I aspire to create! Why! Why! Why is this?!”

“Even if you say that…”

Faced with Liam’s question, Duanmu Huai furrowed his brows. He had a vague sense of what was bothering Liam. When the Puppeteer Master entrusted Ogis to him, it was with the hope he would take her to travel and experience the world. Initially, Ogis was no different from a robot. Only after many interactions led by Duanmu Huai did she gradually begin to express emotions.

In other words, the Puppeteer Master essentially created a self-learning AI personality for Ogis, which could evolve into having a richer array of emotional expressions and ideas by absorbing data from experiences.

This is a standard AI learning logic process.

But Liam somehow misunderstood and wanted to immediately infuse the puppet with a “heart” and “emotions”.

“Enough, let’s not get sidetracked. Why did she kill?”

Duanmu Huai decisively interrupted Liam’s self-reflection, not wanting this interrogation to turn into a seminar on puppet technology.

“Uh… It’s not that complicated. Since she’s a failed creation, she’s only fit to be used as my weapon. That’s all the worth she has left. That’s why I granted her the attack puppet, and especially enhanced her killing abilities…”

“And then you let her go kill people in the city? Why would you do such a thing?!”

Hearing this, Lorena clenched her fists in rage, glowering at Liam and demanding answers. Liam panicked at her questions, yelling in response.

“No! That wasn’t my command! I’ve given her to someone else! She has nothing to do with me anymore!!”

“Who? To whom did you give her?”

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai hurriedly questioned, and Liam hesitated for a moment. As he registered Duanmu Huai’s intense gaze, he quickly responded.

“Iver! It was him! He granted me special powers, the ability to create puppets according to my whims! That’s why I didn’t need that failure anymore! I could now freely create any puppet I needed. I’m the best Puppeteer Master in the world…Ahhh!!!”

Before Liam could finish, a sudden violent whorl of air erupted from the warehouse behind and instantly tore Liam and the warehouse to shreds. Duanmu Huai hastily dropped Liam’s head and stepped back, while Ogis stepped forward, her right hand outstretched. Instantly, long thin strings tightened in front of her, forming a shield that blocked the raging whirlwind.

A spark appeared and disappeared in the air. Everyone looked up and saw a white-haired puppet standing atop the ruins of the warehouse, looking down at them coldly.

“I never thought that father would betray master…it’s really disappointing. But you’re of no use now. Master always said that useless chess pieces must be eliminated.”

“Are you Gavi?”

Gazing at the white-haired puppet before him, Duanmu Huai put on his helmet and asked in a low voice. However…

“Don’t you dare say my name!!”

With an enraged roar, the white-haired puppet lunged forward in the next instant. Her massive puppet charged straight towards Duanmu Huai, but was blocked by the Guardian Puppet that Ogis summoned.

“Tsk!!”

Seeing this, the white-haired puppet—Gavi, clicked her tongue and leaped away, sprinting in the opposite direction.

“We need to chase her!!”

At this moment, Duanmu Huai hurriedly issued the command.

Finally having found her, he absolutely couldn’t let her escape not this time!!
