Conquering The Game's World-Chapter 112 Guilty Luis!
Chapter 112 Guilty Luis!
Luis looked at her expressionlessly and uttered, "Don't apologise, just tell me the truth!"
Seeing the look on his face, Lily felt scared. She didn't want to anger her master. But the emotions inside her were something she couldn't control.
All the time she spent with her Sister Alicia was fresh in her memory. Their girl talks, checking out dresses, playing games in their free time, everything. Each moment with her Sister Alicia was something precious for her.
So, in the end, with her head hung low, while mustering up her courage, she said, {I don't want to betray the trust of sister Alicia. She hates betrayal the most and if I betray her, she might hate me too and I don't want that.}
Luis' expression was still blank as he questioned flatly, "Even if it is for such a small thing?"
When she heard Luis' question, Lily's shoulders trembled again, but gripping her skirt, she finally looked up with firm eyes and nodded, {Yes, even if it is for such a small matter! I don't want to betray her!}
As she said those words, tears kept bawling out of her eyes. Lily knew that when she defied her master, she was going to be punished. No master wants their servants to go against them. But even if she was ready to follow his orders, the emotions inside her were telling her to go against his order this time. She couldn't bear to betray her sister Alicia's trust in her.
Luis looked at the crying Lily with a complicated expression on his face. After all, it's not Lily's fault, since that was how he made her to be.
He was the one who wanted her to have emotions.
He was the one who made her as such. She could never go against his orders.
He was the one who let her get closer to Alicia.
Now that everything was going as he wanted, why was he worried? Luis was confused.
Raising his hand, he rubbed his forehead, feeling a slight headache.
'I just wanted to tease her. How did a simple talk end up into something like this?'
'How should I handle this situation?'
When he made her, Luis knew very well that an AI made of human consciousness instead of data would have this kind of emotional problem eventually in the future. But he didn't expect it to be so soon.
Because the AI made completely of data may take decades to start showing human emotions. But the same with the combination of his sorcery and tech, he achieved it in a few days of development. As for the rest, Lily learned on her own.
If not for the situation, he would have loved to pat his back for creating such an outstanding AI.
'Is this a good thing or not?' Luis didn't have an answer to this question.
In his heart, his thoughts were quite contrasting with each other. He wanted to create a body for her and make her an artificial human. But he also didn't want to lose his control over her.
Sighing, he looked at Lily and said, "Lily, it's fine if you want to stand up for Alicia's trust in you. Those are your emotions and you can think whatever you want."
Lily was visibly surprised, as she didn't expect her master to be so understanding. But she was happy too early, as Luis was not done yet.
Suddenly, he showed a stern expression and continued. "However, no matter what happens, if I order you something. You will have to follow it through, no matter what."
Then, with a cold expression, he uttered the words Lily least wanted to hear.
"If someday I find you going against my order, I'll erase your emotions."
Lily was horrified, but closing her eyes, she resigned herself and nodded, agreeing to him. {Okay, master. If someday I go against your order, please erase my emotions.}
Luis knew that he was being a little cruel. But he still wanted to remind her of that. Although he had already made her as such, she can never go against him. What if she manages to find a loophole? So he took these precautions early.
'Nah, I shouldn't worry too much.' Shaking his head, Luis decided to end this matter.
"Alright, let's get back to what I asked before."
{... Master, should I make a date plan based on sister Alicia's preferences?}
Luis was thoughtful for a moment and said, "You know what?! Let's forget that! Since she doesn't want to tell anyone. There's no need to tell me. I'll just let her choose tomorrow."
Although Lily was confused by what Master meant by letting her choose, she still nodded in relief. Fortunately, she didn't betray her sister's trust in her.
Luis was amused to see Lily's relieved expression.
'Did I scare her that much? My bad Lily, but sometimes it's necessary to be strict too.'
Maybe it was for her good, or maybe it was because of his fear of losing control over her that he was so hard on her.

Whatever it may be the reason, Luis felt a little guilty for his actions. But he will never show it.
Thinking back on his actions, a sentence came to Luis' mind.
'Masks of hypocrisy are in the nature of humans.'
No matter how good or bad a person is. If the need is, he will end up becoming a hypocrite. Luis did too, but for what he did with Lily, he has decided to make amends for it in the future.
Taking a deep breath, Luis calmed himself down and said, "Lily! Start showing me all the data you collected."
{Should I first show the summarized data, or the Core Targets data?}
Luis thought for a moment, then said, "Show me the Core Targets data first. Especially their scenes in the test and their contacts were each other."
{Okay.} Lily nodded and did as she was told. Opening the hologram screen, she started playing the recordings one by one.
