Chapter 445  Forbidden Love: The Decision to Become Human

A couple of minutes later;

An eerie silence filled in the room. Mark didn't know what to speak either. An android and a human loving each other? Perhaps, only in movies, he saw such weird things.

And then, Lin Xue knows the truth and breaks off their relationship?

For a moment, he felt like a side character and Allen was the main character of the story. It was quite cinematic.

But then again, this is reality. Such a taboo relationship isn't acceptable here. And that is why Allen wanted to become a human.

It wasn't as if he doesn't understand Allen's sincerity. He even confirmed with the system that it can create a physical body for Allen and transfer his core into the body.

The new body will not have any soul and will die when the core is destroyed. However, doing this would not only disconnect Allen and Mark but the latter even had to sacrifice the lamp of wishes as the cooldown timer will be ten years before using it again.

As a part of his explanation, he even promised to make a new body for Alina as long as they can gather the required materials.

But, it is a tough decision for Mark. On one hand, he wants to help out Allen's love. And on another hand, he doesn't want to take unnecessary risks.

As Mark was thinking about what decision he should take, Allen then further said,

"Big Bro, in my current situation, I'm not strong enough to guard you and neither could I help you in innovations as it would waste my skills. After turning into a human, I plan to turn into a weapon research specialist.

The knowledge I receive from the system so far will be enough for me to help you in setting up a research facility. In the meantime, we can study the physical body I left behind for our Project Android to create a perfect body for Alina. Until then, Alina can stay in the Cerberos (robotic version of Cerberus). Let me assist you in Project-C."

Mark thought for a bit. If it was someone else, perhaps, Mark would have thought about the pros and cons. However, Allen is someone special to him.

As he earlier mentioned, the heart has the power to control the logic of the brain when such special people are involved. Mark wanted to see Allen happier.

Taking a deep breath, Mark spoke softly, his voice filled with a mix of concern and determination. "Allen, I understand you. But, before taking the decision, I need to talk with Lin Xue. I want to see if she truly loves you as you described or if it is just your delusion."

Allen replied, "It might be a bit tough as she was emotionally unstable at the moment. However, I can share with you the recorded data of our last meeting."

"Okay, do it." Mark went on to watch the recording. Allen was quite uncomfortable while sharing the memory of that night, but if he wants the approval of his big bro, there was no way out of it.

Upon watching the whole clip, Mark could only let out a deep sigh and nodded slowly, "I see that she acted quite emotional for someone known to be cold and elusive. And she also seems to be deeply broken by your truth. Alright, I support your love. I will turn you into a human, Allen."

Allen's face glowed brightly in happiness and he kowtowed right away, expressing his thankfulness, "I'm grateful to have an owner like you, Big Bro. It is out of my calculations to see such a day."

Mark sighed again as he commented, "Ai… I didn't expect to see such a day either."

Sometime later;

"System, Open the blueprint section."

A series of blueprints appeared on the holographic screen. He needs to spend 800,000 credits to complete the side quest and acquire the Lamp of Wishes and the Staff of Blessing at the same time.

Hence, he decided to upgrade his store instead of spending it all on purchasing skills or items.

The current one stands at 25000 gold coins, somewhere in the middle. However, he had to spend a lot. So, he didn't look at anything else on the way and just scrolled and scrolled to the right until he entered the high-end section.

The blueprint goes all the way to a billion gold coins. Hence, he didn't go too far and just looked around the 4-10 million range.

In the end, he chose the one with a price of about 6.5 million gold coins, i.e. 1.3 million credits.

*Ding! Upgrade the interior of the store, right now?"

"How long it will take for the upgrade?" Mark asked. The last time he upgraded the store, it took 3 hours.

*Ding! The renovation will take 715 hours, i.e. 29 days and 19 hours.

"That long? Don't you think you are taking too much time?" Mark was slightly taken aback by the completion time. If such a building will take more than a month time, what if he chose the most expensive interior? Will it take years?

However, the system is always known to counter its host. Without any surprise, the system replied to him.

*Ding! In your past life terms and calculating the price of gold during the time of the host's death, right now, the host put an order to build a 5 billion dollar palace with state-of-the-art facilities and still expecting it to be done in 24 hours or something?

Mark could feel like the system appears to be angry or annoyed. He ended the argument right away, "Fair enough. But, we won't proceed with the replacement right now. Put it on hold and drag the blueprint right to the front. I don't want to waste too much time with scrolling again."

*Ding! Affirmed

Mark closed the window without proceeding with the purchase as he intended to sleep there for the night.

Allen was connected with Mark and he knew how his master will proceed with the purchase as well as the upgrade in the morning.

He couldn't help but become excited. And he wanted to tell this good news to Lin Xue.

Perhaps, Mark's latest briefing about love had an effect on him. Allen couldn't just stop smiling as he imagined the girl.

As midnight arrived, he left the store and made his way to the Lin Mansion.
