Cybernetic Revision to Keep Moving Forward

Yesterday's moment brought a fiery spark of delight within Maduruma's augmented heart as he darted the one eye at above alongside a distorting whistle. A whistle similar to a bird before it morphed into a high-pitch mangling chuckle.

A flashing moment of him not only decapitated Chemistra's precious human legs, but she fully embraced the augmentation of herself. Even though that moment faded away from the deepest memory, Maduruma still extended his laughter.

"Oh yes, that was one wonderful piece of memory." Maduruma murmured, "I'm eager to see you again, Misaki or Chemistra."

The Machine Herald slowly hoisted the augmented above his sparkling-one eye with succumbing to the agitation motion. Then, he declared an affirmative crushing hand for declaring the unbound delirium on the yearning of seeing Chemistra once again.

"It will be very exciting to see your new-improved form. Maduruma mumbled with an enlightened joy, "And if you still resist embracing the real evolution.

"Well, then I have to educate you until that thought and realization emerge," Maduruma added as he retrieved the crushing fist back from seeing the above view.

Instead, he allowed the delighted one eye on capturing the glimpse of the project hauled on the above by six holographic strings strapped around all the limbs. A forged project of a black, eight feet tall endoskeleton of a tiger for the model.

Hundreds of floating-purplish opal-shaped robots with size as a tennis ball and one golden triangular-shaped eye latched on the middle parts, surrounded the endoskeleton. Refining the skeleton was initiated by the robots as they torched any scrappy or rusty metal part with kindle-fire coming out from the thin-nail needle-shaped hand on their head parts.

The drumming noise of the torch touching the metal became a soothing melody through Maduruma's augmented hearing as he closed one eye for a couple of seconds. With each forging-torch released the noisy beat, the more he was influenced by the pleasing atmosphere with releasing a high-pitch distorted whistle.

"I also created an improvement too for myself." Maduruma spoke happily, "So, the match would be fair."

Afterward, Maduruma opened the delighted eye and hovered away from his next project. The project indeed gave a spark of satisfaction towards The Machine Herald, but there was another thing that might have hooked his interest.

"Anyway, let's pick which places are suitable for another meeting with Chemistra," Maduruma murmured excitedly.

His one eye darted at the enlarged-bluish screen floating on the edge-front of his sight, luring Mauduruma closer. Three pictures were trapped in the rectangular frame and displayed an intriguing place tidily for the next fight as The Machine Herald swiftly raised the delicate eye.

The first picture was picked by the locking eye of Maduruma and it presented a grimy rectangular house with thickened black dust covering the entire wall and even the rooftop. A house that was picked for resting place was in the middle of the abandoned beach, influencing The Machine Herald to raise a disgruntled sight.

"The first location is not quite suitable for a big fight." Maduruma complemented with a bitter tone and hurled a shrugging hand, "I'm aware it's located in an isolated island and even far away from Neo Tokyo, but the size is not qualified enough."

"Although the beach can be the battleground too, I am still thinking there is a better place to fight than this," Maduruma added with his one eye slowly steered onto the second picture. Bitter disappointment

The second picture in the middle now became a pinned target for Maduruma's intrigued one eye. The picture presented a gloomy lab with several broken things such as tanks that had the entire upper-glassy surface shattered, chemical tubes scattered all over the floor, and a fallen rectangular table split into two.

Gleeful laughter was released by The Machine Herald especially on observing further the picture. He rubbed his chin to dig more thoughts on the decision and hovered closer onto the sparkling screen.

"I do like choosing the second choice because the place is very large even for a lab." Maduruma mumbled, "Especially this place was used to be Dr.Akarui or Tendou secret hideout.

Maduruma chuckled and shook his head, "A hideout that he used to create me and the same place where I started to rebel against him. The look of disappointment, despair and even regret is still trapped within my deepest memory."

"Tendou, Tendou, you should never think of me as a failure and throw me away like trash." Maduruma confessed with a bitter tone, "Insignificant Foolish Human."

"Let's throw the past thoughts aside for now and conclude this place." Maduruma added, "Tendou's secret hideout is the right choice for declaring the meeting in there. However, let's move to the last picture."

The Machine Herald rotated the intrigued eyes towards the last picture that was placed on the right. Ketsueki Valley was the last picture on the right and influenced Maduruma to sharpen the observant stare, collecting a piece of rapid information on determining his absolute decision

"Ketuseki Valley, a nice place for people to have a duel of death. Also, a place of Sparror and The Distrunian fight, based on the last observation of my beloved minion." Maduruma foretold joyfully, "A valley that had one of the most intriguing histories in Rising Sun.

Maduruma chortled, "One of the famous stories is that the ground was made by the blood of The Oni and The Mighty Samurai."

"Therefore, it's a suitable place for us to settle matters and hopefully it'll not repeat history." Maduruma added and hoisted his hand, trying to reach the sky on heating the excitement, "Instead, you….Chemistra will be my enforcer for moving forward the dream of the real evolution"

With Maduruma scanning all the three pictures of unique places that had the potential to be a battlefield between him and The Chemist, he slowly hovered away from the bluish screen. The Machine Herald surveyed all the three intriguing pictures at once and rubbed his chin, attempting to pick the perfect choice that could satisfy his augmented mind.

A high-pitched, yet distorted humming and whistling drummed across the base as Maduruma remained trying to finalize the decision. The whistling noise became louder when he halted the rubbing before pinching the augmented chin.

Afterward, Maduruma put down the rubbing hand and his one eye sharpened the delightful stare on the bluish screen. An excited gasp was blown out by The Machine Herald as the decision of finding a suitable place for him and Chemistra was finally declared.

"As much I wanted to choose the Ketsueki Valley, but the abandoned lab of Mr.Akarui is more suitable for my choice," Maduruma exclaimed happily with his finger and chose the second picture.

The decision of the suitable arena had been fully confirmed, satisfying Maduruma's thoughts. The second picture itself embarked the frame and vastly stretched out its picture until it became dominated the entire screen, greeted The Machine Herald in a warm welcome with him closing the dazzling-one eye.

"Not only does the Mr.Akarui hideout give me a wonderful reminder of my augmentation, but it also will be my new base if I could defeat or even convinced Chemistra," Maduruma uttered with an enthusiastic tone.

Around hours had passed and the afternoon began to shine the warming orange light throughout the sky. Inside the somber-like secret base, Misaki leaned her tiring back onto the holographic chair and closed her eyes as she presumed the resting time.

Fatigue atmosphere bloomed throughout Misaki's entire face especially when there was a wrinkle mark and her face became pale. Sweats dampened on the forehead alongside a high-pitch snoring noise echoed within the room.

However, the slumbering time for Misaki's ended shortly when the ear-piercing alarm noise screamed widely. She quickly opened her eyes with her releasing an out loud yawning noise before stretching her head to gain a piece of relaxation.

Misaki rubbed her eyes continuously as she wiped away the slumbering feeling. Then, she put it down her hands with the fresh-awakened mood blooming through her entire face and gave a brief sigh of relief.

"It's been a busy day, especially preparing a lot of coding equipment and even a new weapon for my cybernation," Misaki murmured.

Misaki chuckled, "I didn't get a good sleep due to finishing the coding. Hell, even when Southern Shield left, I'm still busy finishing it."

"Many, many, weapons and equipment that will be better than the previous suit," Misaki exclaimed with a gentle smirk.

Afterward, Misaki pinned her sight onto the gleaming screen that became the main source of the alarm. An enlarged-green rectangular billboard with the cotton-white placed on the middle of the billboard words foretold, "100%" popped out the middle of the screen.

At first, Misaki closed her eyes in a brief time for recollecting the energy on facing the occurring reality. She nodded her head before commanding her leg to raise a firm standing position.

"It's time for me to declare the next way to move forward." Misaki uttered with a bitter tone, "Mama, I hope you're fine in there."

Misaki sighed reluctantly, "I know you will have the same opinion as Papa regarding this."

"Luckily, Ayari kind of supported me on this and wished me the best." Misaki murmured gladfully, "It gave me relief."

Misaki locked towards the capsule across her blowing out a scattering smoke from below and the neon-blue light soared through the front part. Moreover, the front part of the capsule slid a gleaming inside that spread gleaming-bluish light towards her entire body.

The light not only encouraged Misaki to take a few approaching steps in the capsule's direction, but it also allowed her to unbutton the shirt. Smooth-white skin of her stomach appeared as she kept unbuttoning and walked closer towards the opened capsule.

Then, all the buttons of her shirt were opened and revealed a glimpse of her total-naked upper body. Misaki tossed aside her shirt away, presenting the clear picture of the silk-white back of her skin.

She even stripped down her long pants to let the prosthetic metal leg witness the outside view. Misaki even kicked away the plant as it allowed her to gain fluid steps that rapidly moved towards the alluring-opened door of the capsule especially with the gleaming light flashed on her face.

The approaching steps were stopped when Misaki's sight received a direct glimpse of the opened capsule. The gleaming light lured her to put her metal foot into the inside as the startup for the augmentation.

Constant-heavy breathing was exhaled by Misaki after her left foot touched the shivering-cold surface, but it didn't break down the conviction. A conviction for her to continue especially when she landed another metal foot into the cold inside.

Misaki turned around her body and swiftly leaned her back towards the gleaming, yet cold capsule wall. She decided to close her eyes once again even though her entire limbs shivered by enduring the constant frozen air within the capsule inside blowing on the surroundings, fully declaring her own path to the next level.
