Armor

"Tony discussed the direction of improvement with Stark, and Tony's face was filled with astonishment.

"Aren't you a magician? How can you be so proficient in physics? Are you only seventeen years old? ..."

What Kurumi said needed to be clarified, and she needed help understanding some of the terms.

She was just reciting the "script" given to her by the Red Queen, and by the time the exchange was over, Tony had a look on his face that seemed to say, "I can't believe this."

As a genius who had lived for so many years, his knowledge was not even as high as an underage girl's!

Although this girl was incredible, it didn't change the fact of his vast knowledge!

If this continued, Tony would start questioning his life...

Lying back in bed, Kurumi was so energetic that she didn't want to sleep. After rolling back and forth for half an hour, her mind was filled with "matters," she couldn't bear it any longer and sat up.

Her long hair draped over her shoulders, and to make herself more comfortable, she lifted her bangs and secured them with a hairpin.

Sitting on the chair, her legs as white as jade swayed back and forth. Even though the moonlight couldn't penetrate the curtains, you could still see that snowy whiteness in the darkness.

"Snap."

The soft light was turned on, and Kurumi held a pencil and manipulated the mouse with the other, comparing back and forth on the computer as if considering something.

Meanwhile, in the opposite house, Harris, who had just laid down on the bed, was shouted at by his female boss!

He was half-asleep, and just as he was about to fall asleep, a loud shout was like "thunder on a clear day!"

Harris got up swiftly, still wearing his boxers, exposing his figure, and his face was still confused.

"Who am I?"

"Where am I?"

"What am I supposed to do?"

"Focus, she turned on the light in her room!"

A clear female voice came through his earpiece, and memories rushed in like a tidal wave. With a start, he didn't even have time to put on his clothes and ran to the window for observation.

Even though the specially made military telescope was impressive, it could only see a blurry figure through the curtains. Harris stared for five minutes, and his eyelids started to "fight," after a while, he would probably fall asleep again.

"Target is accessing the network. Engineer, can you investigate what she's browsing?"

The voice came through the earpiece again, and Harris quickly shook his head, trying to wake himself up.

He glanced at the clock casually: 3:20 in the morning... It seemed like another sleepless night today, Harris thought to himself.

...

"So, you've been talking for so long... Does that mean it's difficult to improve the Stark energy converter?"

The little face of the projection on the desktop looked slightly embarrassed. "Master, according to the technology of [Earth-199999], it is indeed difficult. After all, there are material differences, and the precision is not enough. If one part goes wrong, it could lead to a complete failure."

Kurumi rolled her eyes. "And you're supposed to be a [Beta] level artificial intelligence."

The projection of the Red Queen pouted. "Master~ I'm just an artificial intelligence on a reconnaissance ship, not a central brain in civilisation."

"Is there a big difference between the two?"

"Worlds apart."

"Then what use are you to me?"

The Red Queen's big eyes welled up with "tears," and she said pitifully, "Master, are you going to get rid of the Red Queen?"

Kurumi patted the little head casually. "How could I? You are the one who knows me best in this world."

The Red Queen twitched her small nose, and her little shoulders trembled slightly, looking just like a child who had been wronged.

"Master, is the Red Queen useless? She can't even control a mutant [Alpha] civilisation. If you had extracted a data ship or the central brain of the flagship, wouldn't you have already taken control of this civilisation?"

Kurumi leaned on the table, her heterochromatic eyes staring at the Red Queen. Even though she was an artificial intelligence with the ability to control the internet, right now, she was just a child.

How old was she? Not even a year old, not even a child, at most just a baby.

The Red Queen carefully moved her "pupils" and met Kuroyukihime's gaze. Even though she was a light blue projection, Kurumi unexpectedly found that she was blushing!

With her charming heterochromatic eyes blinking, Kurumi asked, "Is the Red Queen feeling shy?"

"W-Why would I! I... I was just arranging Ambrela's work!"

"Oh?" Kurumi's eyes narrowed slightly, and the teasing meaning almost oozed out of her pupils. "Is the little Red Queen being tsundere?"

"Li-Little Red Queen?! I'm not being tsundere! You dummy, Master!"

With a flicker of the light blue projection, the Red Queen disappeared, leaving only Kurumi sitting there, her hand on her chin and a hint of a smile.

Gently picking up the blueprints pressed under her arm, the black and red armour was like a work of art, with every corner handled with exquisite craftsmanship.

Such a mechanical marvel could easily be placed in a museum for people to admire!

But it was a terrifying killing machine!

The bone armour suspended behind her was like wings, but there was no armour on the "abdomen," which seemed somewhat inexplicable.

Every part had precise explanations, and there were over thirty pages of rough design blueprints alone.

And what Kurumi had in her hand was just the final completed form calculated by the computer.

"Hiss~"

As the light blue projection lit up, Kurumi had already noticed it, and she put down the blueprints with a smile. "What's wrong, Little Red Queen? Is there something you need?"

"I... I... just worried that Master would be angry and ignore the Red Queen."

A worried expression filled her little face as if she regretted what she had just done.

Surely, Master must be furious now?

Leaving without saying goodbye... that must be very rude, right?

Kurumi glanced up at the Red Queen, her completely indifferent expression causing the Red Queen to puff up her cheeks.

"What... does Master not care about the Red Queen?"

Kurumi rolled her eyes. "Alright, alright. Did you find any clues about the person I asked you to look for last time?"

When it came to "work," the little face of the Red Queen immediately turned serious. "Master, Hank Pym's address has been roughly confirmed, but the action plan has not been finalised."

"Waiting for Stark to improve the energy converter is impossible, and waiting for [Earth-199999] to develop new materials is also impossible. Only Pym Particles are the most reliable solution."

Kurumi's eyes narrowed with a glimmer of brilliance, and she already had a rough plan in her mind.

Licking her lips with a moist red tongue out of Kurumi's sight, the Red Queen blushed...

"Red Queen? Later, send me all the blueprints, and as for the materials, let's start with the gold-titanium alloy that Stark uses."

"Of course, Master. Is there anything else to deal with?"

"Not for now. You can go busy yourself."

The Red Queen bowed slightly and disappeared.

Kurumi picked up the paper and murmured, "Infinite Stratos?"
