Alec wanted to ditch the three Main Characters and go find Ye Sha, but he decided not to in the end.
He didn't know what or where the other System was right now, but he trusted that he hadn't been deleted.
…If he really had been deleted, just watch. Alec was going to wage war.
Ye Sha had already broke off his contract with the Mainframe, which meant that the Mainframe would no longer have any control over the System.
He was somewhat of a freelance System now, and by connecting with Alec, that managed to stop the System's degradation.
Theoretically speaking, Ye Sha should be safe from the process of deletion by the Mainframe.
But his unstable mood continue to grow and fluctuate strangely the more days passed.
It didn't help that he could feel the subtle eyes from whatever town they were passing through.
Those that were from the females whenever he went into a town, or hostile eyes from males, as well as what he thought was the watch of that Meister from before.
While it didn't feel hostile, Alec didn't like the feeling of eyes on his body. He hated the feeling of being watched by those unknown to him.
Suddenly, his brow twitched.
This feeling…
Alec resisted the urge to scowl. Instead, he made sure to maintain his smile.
However, his sudden increase in bad mood was seen through by the rest of his group. They gave him a look, but he suddenly didn't feel like explaining anything to them.
She was back…

Ye Sha sat up, feeling disorientated.
He had changed his body to look exactly as it did previously, which for some reason, they didn't do in the first place. For what reason, he didn't know.
Honestly, he'd seen the body they put him in, and if it hadn't been for the information that had been telling him otherwise, he'd have thought that they had just randomly stuck him in a random person's body.
…Well, now that he thought that to himself, he would never get that thought out of his mind.
What if it *was* someone else's body, and he just modified it to his looks?
It made him feel strange and unsettled when he thought about himself with a different appearance, so it wasn't like he'd leave it be either. It felt like he wasn't himself and instead hijacked someone else's body, which in this case was really quite apt.
While trying not to let them in on what he was thinking, he checked everything he could.
He was relieved when he noted that this body had indeed been… uninhabited (?) before he moved his consciousness in.
This body had been made from scratch, from inside out, and it functioned exactly like a normal human body.
It could use magic, and it even had a Magitype and Societype, which stunned him.
When he was slapped in the face with blatant information like this, how could he say otherwise?
Just what sort of black technology was this that a proper human body had been made from scratch?
He originally thought that this body was more like a golem.
While it would have functioned and looked like a normal human body, he thought that he would have been regulated to the level of a civilian with little or no magic.
Imagine his shock when he realized otherwise.
It made his hair stand on his arms stand up straight when he thought about the level of technology needed to obtain such a thing.
He felt a little chill.
He was beginning to think that he'd fallen in with an extremely dangerous group.
He didn't know anything about their motives, nor did he know what they wanted from him specifically.
There were so many unknowns that Ye Sha had to act cautiously every time he took a single action.
Ye Sha hadn't met the triplets or anyone else in the past week, so he made sure to engross himself in the study of his new body.
He was able to move exactly how he remembered he was able to do. It only took roughly about a day to get used to having a body again, but Ye Sha had never been a combat-type.
Even in his original world, before he became a System, there had been no need for any combat roles, and as such, there had been no need for Ye Sha to brush up on anything related to combat at all.
Even in his free time as a System, as well as the time that he spent down here on Incantix waiting for Alec, he had never specifically needed to learn combat for himself.
Reading up on it, yes. Seeing it, yes. But doing it himself? Blasphemy!
However, it seemed like he didn't have a choice now. He felt a little bitter about that. But he bore with it, knowing that just a little bit more practice could determine life and death.
He was on Incantix (or at least, he seemed to be), and he just knew that Alec was going to drag him into many combat situations.
He couldn't just sit back and chill like he had previously while he was lounging around in Alec's mindscape.
It was a struggle.
Whether he did it by his screens or with his body, there was no way that he was going to get away with whatever he was doing right now. Not with their technology.
Ye Sha was honestly trying, but it would be better to seem upfront and honest than try and hide anything.
For now, at least.
The door hissed, and Ye Sha tensed, stopping his exercise.
The door whooshed open, admitting the triplets with their previous dramatic entrance.
It still looked just as dramatic the second time around, and Ye Sha briefly wanted to try that himself.
"You can, you know?" the girl in front said robotically.
"Can what?" Ye Sha asked warily.
"You can do the dramatic entrance if you just agree to join us."
Instantly, Ye Sha's caution shot up. "What do you mean? You want me to work for you?"
"Of course," the three echoed. "Why else would we have brought you here?"
This was the second time they were meeting, but Ye Sha still got chills. Not the good kind, either.
But there was a little glint in their eyes that he couldn't place. He didn't know whether or not they were just fucking with him, but it didn't feel good.
More importantly, they just directly revealed that they could read his mind! That wasn't good, was it?
It meant that they had a lot more power than he originally thought.
"Yes, we can," they echoed yet again, and Ye Sha tried to repress the unsettled feelings.
How? How could they just… read his mind? That made no sense!
"But it does."
Ye Sha glared at them. "No, it doesn't."
"It does."
"It doesn't!"
"It does. Everything makes perfect sense. Our master in infallible."
"Who is your master?"
"We cannot say," they echoed.
Ye Sha ruffled his hair in frustration. "It makes no sense! No matter how much advanced your technology is, you can't just read a living, breathing person's mind!"
"Can't we? Systems can read data. Why can't we read minds?"
Ye Sha fell silent at that. That was true… but, there was something niggling at him, and he was inclined to believe his gut instinct rather than just listen to them.
The four beings in the room fell silent.
The System didn't know what to say to them, while the triplets showed no visible emotion.
"What does your master want with me?"
The girl in front turned her head as she stared into Ye Sha's eyes. "If you are amendable, master would like to meet you."
Ye Sha just grew warier. They spoke like he had a choice, but…
"There is always a choice."
That just made it creepier, damn it!
"We are not creepy."
Ye Sha placed a hand on his face. "Let's just go."
"Gladly," the three echoed.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
