Chapter 216: No Longer Human
Chapter 216: No Longer Human
Momoka's greatest wish is to die.
Since she could remember, she had been taught the concept of "sacrificing for Angelise", so death was not something terrible to her. But if she really had to die, she wanted to find a reason that she could accept with pleasure. And fortunately, she finally found it.
Momoka is quite self-aware of her position in the Lingus family - her relationship with Ange is not an ordinary employment relationship, but a lifelong contract of soul.
Although Ange said that Momoka was an important friend, it was only a condescending charity like "since you are so loyal, I can treat you as a friend" that Ange herself didn't realize. The wonderful friendship between master and servant is something that exists only in literature, but in real life, origin, education, and the deep-rooted worldview that follows will play a decisive role.
But she doesn't blame Ange for this, and is even grateful for her so-called "friendship". Because she also grew up in such an environment, she takes it all for granted. And everyone else, including Mineva, seems to ignore the fact that she is also a cute young girl in her youth, treating her like a dispensable household appliance.
She has no regrets about the fact that she will be tied to the Lingus family until the end of her life and that there will never be a second way out.
Then Ade screwed it all up.
Lacus and C.C. both have similar experiences to Ange and are used to Momoka's presence, only Ade is unable to understand the concept of "Your Highness's chief maid".
"Servant or whatever is just a nice way of saying that, I am just a slave, why doesn't he understand such a simple truth?" Momoka asked herself countless times.
Ade had been persistently making awkward efforts to reach a "normal" relationship with Momoka, but Momoka didn't understand what a "normal" relationship is, and in her worldview, that kind of thing doesn't exist.
Does Ade want her mating rights? Ange had already given it to him long ago. Does Ade want Momoka to woo him? But maids are not allowed to court, and there is no room for Momoka in this already crowded household.
She doesn't need a friend, she doesn't need a lover, she just needs a master. But Ade doesn't even give her that chance. He cruelly refuses to be her master, and even asks her to call him by his first name when they are alone.
To her, Ade's tender treatment was nothing but torture, and every day that passed only made her suffer more.
She is not Lacus or Ange, she is just a young girl with a twisted education. She doesn't want Ade to see her hysterical and tragic appearance after her soul collapses. She doesn't want Ade to feel guilty for the rest of his life for a mistake he didn't intend to make, so she hopes she can die worthily before that day comes.
It would be ideal to die to protect Ade if she could, but Ade was too strong and would solve any problems on his own, and there was nothing Momoka could do. So she tried to deliberately overstep the mark in front of Ange and the girls, making an obvious act of betrayal, and maybe C.C. or whoever would kill her out of jealousy.
But it proved futile, no one cared about her betrayal, the masters didn't even feel the slightest threat from her, and her behavior was as comical as a clown. She was such a small, humble, unworthy secondary role, Momoka once again recognized her own position.
Until Lacus gave her this opportunity.
Momoka vividly remembered Lacus approaching her for the first time, "I want you to die so that Ade can come back, isn't that two birds with one stone?" Lacus said so to her. In that moment, she understood that Lacus was the only one who understood her. "With pleasure!" She replied quickly and without thinking about it.
Lacus also rejected Momoka's use of honorifics for her because she was not Momoka's master. Lacus also gave her the opportunity to die for Ade, and she would in a sense live forever in Ade's heart. And Ange and Ade would live happily ever after, in a world without her.
Could there be a more wonderful future than this? No. This is the last train to the kingdom of happiness. All she needed to do was to exchange her life for Kaworu Nagisa's, and that was all she had to do.
According to Lacus, the Angel of Freedom, despite having the strongest AT field, is the weakest ANGEL because his body is nothing more than an ordinary human. Cutting off his head, stabbing through his heart, blood loss, all the methods that can kill humans are able to kill him, so even a dispensable character like Momoka has a chance to make her death worthwhile.
"Do you think I would say that, you actor?"
Kaworu Nagisa's voice brought Momoka's attention back to reality - through the miniature camera and microphone worn by Lacus, she could clearly observe their movements even while hiding at the bottom of the sea in a Jegan.
The development didn't seem promising, but that was in Lacus' plan. The Angel of Freedom and NT are very similar in that they are both extremely sensitive creatures mentally, it's not surprising that he could find that this was a trap.
"I have to admit that your acting is excellent, but unfortunately, you don't grasp the soul of the work and the character, and the specious lines really make me laugh." Kaworu Nagisa in the camera was full of playfulness as he ripped the black collar around his neck, "Besides, you seem to have some misunderstanding about we angels. I'm not a flawed creature like NT, do you think that I didn't notice such a big piece of junk?"
The water surface was cut in half by an invisible blade, revealing a Jegan hidden beneath. 20 tons of metal was effortlessly grabbed and carried by an invisible hand as if it weighed nothing.
Lacus removed her sunglasses with hatred, reluctantly biting her lower lip with her upper teeth, watching helplessly what was happening in front of her.
"I was expecting Ade to give me answers, or at least a wonderful death, it seems that I can't wait." Kaworu Nagisa looked sadly at the Jegan and shook his head, "Something like that can't kill me. You guys have to work harder to do that."
The Jegan was easily twisted into a lump of iron by the incredible force, making unbearable noise. Then the rag was broken and torn off by the invisible hand, revealing the cockpit that was squeezed broken.
After the cockpit was also torn apart at will, Momoka, whose face and body were covered with blood, was hanging in the air by the AT field, with her right arm bent at a strange angle, looking like a broken doll that had been tossed out of some corner.
"Still alive?" Kaworu Nagisa laughed contemptuously and turned to look at Lacus, "I have always had a soft spot for Lilin, who has a noble soul, and a respect for the genius who created classical music, but your underhanded way of using even Ade's death really makes me sick."
"I can't help it, I'm such a mean person." Lacus tenderly stroked the container in her arms, "Before I die, I want to ask you one last thing, can I?"
"Still stalling?" Kaworu Nagisa raised an eyebrow, "Say."
"Please keep Ade safe, I'm afraid he'll be taken by a deranged scientist or organization and used for experiments." Lacus flicked forward, "Please."
Just as Kaworu Nagisa's eyes involuntarily followed the container, he heard the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground and the sound of brisk footsteps. He immediately understood that his AT field failed, but the opponent's movement was so fast that even a momentary distraction was fatal, and by the time he tried to use the AT field to protect himself, it was too late.
The pain in his chest made him lower his head, and the sharp knife from his heart spoke silently of the cause. Lacus didn't panic and jogged two steps to catch the container she had thrown, with a seven-colored shimmer in her eyes.
"So that's how it is, worthy of the woman Ade likes" Kaworu Nagisa smiled and closed his eyes, "Shinji, I'm missing my appointment "
The exhausted Momoka could not hold on any longer and hit the ground backwards with a muffled thud, but with a bright smile on her face like an innocent girl.
She had never been so grateful for the skills she had been forced to learn to protect Her Highness Angelise, without which, she would not have been able to preserve maximum mobility and deliver a fatal blow before Kaworu Nagisa reacted, and most importantly, without which, she would not have been able to endure the ravages of nanobot on her flesh while still maintain her sanity.
Although the pain of the mind is a little more painful, that doesn't mean that the body doesn't hurt, right? Well, it still hurts, and Momoka is on the verge of not being able to take it anymore.
"Lacus," she let out a weak voice as she looked at the pink figure slowly walking in, "Can I go to hell now?"
"No way." Lacus looked at the iridescence in Momoka's eyes with a mischievous smile, "I'm sorry I lied to you, you're not allowed to die yet."
"This also cough can't be determined by you, right " Momoka licked the blood from the corner of her mouth, "The Innovator is designed by based on the Coordinator and NT I as an inferior my service life cough almost reaches the limit it won't take long before my Genes completely collapses "
"That's not necessarily." Lacus squatted down and took out a handkerchief to wipe up the blood stain at the corner of Momoka's mouth, "Some nasty woman has the latest relevant technology on hand, and she could save you. Your mission is over, I will immediately send you back to the moon, you can be saved in time."
"Why ?" Momoka struggled to sit up, "I just cough just want to die for the master. Is this also not allowed? "
"Sorry, you're not allowed to die." Lacus held Momoka down with one hand and took out her cell phone with the other to start contacting her men, "Ade isn't very good at taking care of himself and neither is Ange. Once thinking that these two would make a mess of the house and drink nutrient solutions at meals every day, it makes me feel helpless. So you must continue to take care of Ade, and I can't trust anyone else."
"That's true, after all, slavery is ahem lifelong " Momoka desperately closed her eyes, "There is no relief "
"In fact, you don't need to think so complicated, just force to push Ade down. After obtaining your virginity, he will naturally be responsible for that, and he will agree to everything you want." Lacus ignored Momoka's panicked look and patted her cheek affectionately, "Congratulations on passing the exam, just leave the back to me alone."
Ange had a strange dream, she dreamed that she became a dragon, trapped in a huge transparent vessel, unable to move, extremely uncomfortable. After a long time, the vessel was broken and Ange was finally free to soar in the sky. Although she experienced a lot of hardship in life, such an ending is happy enough.
She met her friend from the past, who had changed a lot over the years. She met the person who saved her, who was very interesting. She also met the man's daughter, the overall feeling was not quite the same but her inner character was too much like him - wait, weren't I the man's daughter?
Anyway, she was very happy, so she just kept flying in the sky. When she was hungry and thirsty, a stream of warmth seeped out from her chest and spread to all her limbs, as if it could provide unlimited energy. So her stomach was not hungry and thirsty, so she kept flying more pleasant.
"Oh my God, there is no one with a normal brain in this family. Uncle Ade's vision of picking women is really bad! Tsk." Ange vaguely heard someone hazily talking in her ear, "Fly, fly, fly, your man is missing and you're still in the mood to fly?"
"Don't try to cheat me, I'm very smart Ade praised me for being smart "Ange opened her eyelids in a daze, the little girl in her vision was stroking her forehead with her hand, doing mature actions that were completely incompatible with her age, "Don't talk nonsense, Ade is clearly being saved by me wait hey hey hey? My man has disappeared again?!"
