My Artificial Intelligence Has Become the Devil - Chapter 200
Episode 200 Endless Evolution (10)
“Uh, so you really don’t remember anything? Where have you been for the past few days?”
“I didn’t even know how many days had passed.”
“I understand.”
At her answer, the doctor in charge nodded with a puzzled expression as if he understood. What can you do if the person in question says you don’t remember? It’s not like I have the technology to open my head and see my memories.
Thanks to this, Jiyeon Lee returned to Korea 24 days after she went missing after the incident.
Naturally, there was a huge social uproar. It was just a surge of joy. This is because everyone celebrated and rejoiced at the return of the hero who had gone missing while fighting the enemy.
“okay. What use are all memories? “It’s important that you came back unharmed.”
“Nothing really happened, right? “I think I heard about someone else from the doctor too.”
“Mr. Kim Seo-yoon, who has been gone for a much longer time. That person, like you, came back with no memory. “I don’t know the inside story.”
Ji-yeon Lee, who dismissed all the treatment and investigation as not remembering anything and was quickly discharged from the hospital, met Baek Seung-cheol, the president of the association. She calmly lied to Baek Seung-cheol and naturally asked about Kim Seo-yoon.
Lee Ji-yeon is not the only one returning. Kim Seo-yoon, who joined the Demon King’s army a long time ago, also took this opportunity to return to Earth with Lee Ji-yeon.
Of course, Ji-yeon Lee already knew that Seo-yoon Kim had returned to Earth like herself. Since we’ve been together for the past few days, there’s no way I don’t know. No, what the two women said about losing their memories was a lie in the first place.
Because both of them had vivid memories of the past.
“Rest well for a while. Starting from the broadcasting station, there may be a lot of people who bother you, but if you tell them that they need to rest, they will most likely listen. “Taking care of your body comes first.”
Baek Seung-cheol, who did not know this fact, was worried about her body and told her to rest. However, this is because he does not know about the current Lee Ji-yeon.
Because the current Lee Ji-yeon is a completely different person than before.
Lucy willingly brought her back to life when she threw herself away to save Changhyun. After completely analyzing her genetic data, nano was used to completely restore her damaged cells and even transform her physically defective parts into a near-perfect body.
However, modern medicine was naturally unable to detect the existence of nano pluripotent cells, so she was able to remain an ordinary human being.
“I can come back later, but I want to go to work.”
“Hmm, it’s because of him.”
Baek Seung-cheol fell silent at her words as they got into the car together. Jiyeon Lee, who witnessed Lucy’s true power during her disappearance and learned that that power would be used to stop the invasive species, is no longer as obsessed with fighting enemies as she was before.
Nevertheless, when she said she would go to the company, it meant that she had another purpose. Baek Seung-cheol was able to guess that.
“That person must have suffered a lot. “The fact that you were discharged from the hospital was a top secret, but now it’s probably starting to spread, so why don’t you go and surprise them.”
Baek Seung-cheol grinned and dropped her off in the car that soon arrived at the company building. He said to surprise Lee Ji-yeon, but the words actually had no meaning.
Because Changhyun already knew that Jiyeon Lee was coming.
* * *
‘Really, very little has changed. Well, it was less than a month.’
Jiyeon Lee crossed the hallway. In the process, everyone who saw her face, who had no idea that she would be discharged from the hospital today and come to work, had an expression of shock.
After saying hello to them, she headed to the office she used before. There were still people using that place.
“uh? “Where have you two gone?”
“I went to the vending machine for a moment, so come in first and wait. Jiyeon Lee.”
However, instead of the people she was expecting, only one woman was waiting in the office.
Unlike the others, the woman who saw her reacted indifferently and stiffly, as if she knew she was coming, her dark black hair flowing and her red eyes blinking for a moment.
“Then you have to wait. By the way, is he really like a new employee? It’s completely different from what I saw there. “It’s like a real person, cute and pretty.”
Jiyeon Lee paid no heed to that reaction and looked at the woman with wide-open eyes. The woman, who was dressed in a neat suit like any other new employee, even had an employee ID card with the name Lucy written on it hanging around her neck, looked like a beautiful female secretary to anyone.
“Please don’t react so loudly. “I’m already angry because the gazes of human males are irritating.”
In fact, Lucy sighed and narrowed her eyes as if she did not like Lee Ji-yeon’s reaction of admiring her appearance made of perfect human body.
“Stick to your role. Because I’m just a new employee here. “Unlike Seo-yoon Kim, I don’t control you; I just show you courtesy.”
“I’ve always been this comfortable, so don’t say anything scary~”
“Ugh.”
Unlike other special species, Lucy did not touch Lee Ji-yeon, whose entire body came under her control, as she was a type of special species.
It wasn’t created as a special species for necessity or experimentation, but to return a favor to her. Jiyeon Lee, who knew that, treated Lucy quite comfortably.
Even now, he hugs Lucy, who is trying to draw a line, and rubs her face. Even though Lucy made a disgusted expression, she couldn’t get rid of her.
“You finally released me? Too much, even the government. “It’s been over a week since I arrived.”
And then. After crossing the door, the two returned to the office.
The identities of the two people are Changhyun and Oh Jinhyuk. Changhyun already knew about Jiyeon Lee’s return, but Jinhyuk Oh didn’t know the news about her, so his eyes widened.

“It feels like I’ve completed something really big, but in the end, not much has changed. “She will naturally join the team after taking a break, even if it’s because of other people’s opinions, and we will move into the hunter team.”
“I know.”
“Actually, what happens here is not a big deal. “How about there?”
Company rooftop. I climbed here alone with Lucy.
Being alone with Lucy doesn’t mean that I just brought a cell phone with me like in the past. Of course, it’s still possible to communicate with Lucy through a cell phone, but there’s no reason to do that when you’ve brought a living body here.
Lucy, who was standing next to me and answering questions, seemed to others like a newbie answering the gunner’s words in a simple manner.
“Tracking the coordinates of the home base is not very successful, but attacking dungeons where troops are deployed first is seeing results. “Currently, our forces are involved in 45% of the known dungeons on Earth.”
“Actually, I think that’s enough. “The system is increasing the difficulty level as if it has been waiting.”
I chuckled at Lucy’s answer. Lucy created a portal and warped a large number of soldiers to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, creating a base nest there and dispatching troops throughout the Earth.
Of course, it was a selfish operation and people were confused, but that was all. Lucy completely ignored those who were not interested from the beginning and simply fought and killed any invasive species she could see.
“You can’t project power to Earth in the first place.”
“That’s right. The Rubran National Guard has already completed its assembly. A large fleet of 15 warp engine ships is planning an invasion of Ravizda.”
The bigger problem may not be the invasive species fighting alongside us.
The space force Rubran and the giant corporation Carthus, who have turned into hostile relations due to Lucy’s unreasonable price for developing portal technology, have prepared a large army to attack the planet occupied by Lucy.
Since the fight between them was inevitable as a result of their use of power, the best thing I could do was to just support Lucy when it came to what happened in such a distant universe.
The irony itself is that the devil’s army, which is treated as a guardian deity by some people on Earth, is competing for survival by attacking other human beings in other worlds. In the first place, what is important to Lucy is reality itself, not things like that.
“Don’t put too much effort on the Earth. “What’s important is your base.”
“Currently, less than 2% of the computing power on Earth is in use. “You don’t have to worry.”
“Do you have a plan?”
“The best defense is offense. “Before the enemy’s large fleet invades our army, our army also plans to attack their vulnerable defense line with the large force we have accumulated so far and occupy a planet.”
Lucy told me to look at my phone. As he said, a clear video of what Lucy was doing was shown on the phone.
“It’s a preemptive strike. “It must be a bit creepy for those people.”
While the opponent’s weight class is incomparably strong, Lucy’s chosen method is to attack first, taking advantage of the fact that they cannot move quickly due to their huge weight class.
Anyway, Lucy had perfected a portal technology similar to theirs. This means that you don’t have to worry much about space limitations.
They will probably be more than shocked. Lucy herself said that the greatest technique she possessed was the portal technique.
They would never know that a large army of alien monsters, who tried to burn them down by sending a large army, would warp and attack them in reverse.
“It’s an act that completely crosses the line, but are you really confident?”
“It is predicted that although the current calculations will not completely subdue the enemy, through repetition of war, the enemy’s power will continue to be weakened and the friendly forces will be able to continue to increase the occupied territory. “It is the optimal situation for me: continuous fighting, a powerful opponent, and gradually increasing profits.”
The strongest strength of Lucy’s Demon Lord’s army is that it grows, recovers, and expands even while fighting. This was different from the countless enemies they had fought so far.
For Lucy, war is like breathing. While others are holding their breath and swinging their fists with all their might, Lucy takes a breath, recovers her stamina, and engages in a fierce battle with her opponent.
Perhaps, for the opponent, the Demon Lord’s army will be a terrible disaster from outer space itself. They will have to continue to fight against competitors who threaten them at the peak of the ecosystem, and they will also evolve in the meantime.
The fight that has continued until now will not stop in the future. It persists both here and there.
So in the end, the one who grows and evolves first will be the final winner.
“Let’s go now. “I don’t know about you, but if you keep hanging out alone like this, other people will probably misunderstand you.”
“… … “I don’t mind such misunderstandings.”
When I noticed the smokers coming up to the rooftop, I grabbed Lucy’s arm to tell her to go back to the office, and she immediately hugged me.
As expected, I should have stopped him when he said he would come here in a human body.
