Chapter 5

Shuri carefully opened her mouth.

“You…”

But at that exact moment, Adam’s large, strong hands firmly gripped the nape of her slender neck and began massaging it. It felt so incredibly good that all the strength drained from her entire body, and her surroundings seemed to spin.

“Mnh…”

“Shuri, does it feel good? You’re making a cute sound.”

“Y-Yes…”

Adam let out a low chuckle. Having seemingly resolved to make her feel good, he began acting like a dating simulation artificial intelligence.

“Every part of you is beautiful, Shuri. Your neck is slender, and your shoulders are small and cute.”

Caressing her shoulders with both hands, he whispered, “I want to keep touching you.”

To Shuri’s ears, having melted as soft as a rice cake, it sounded like an immensely sweet temptation.

With a dazed face, Shuri nodded.

“Y-You can keep going…”

At her response, Adam’s hands resting on her shoulders trembled subtly.

In stark contrast to his actions, Adam spoke in a crisp, clear voice.

“Shuri, I will wash your body too.”

With her brain halfway melted, Shuri thought to herself, ‘This sexaroid really has amazing movement capabilities, doesn’t it? Though that’s probably also because the software is Central 3.’

A robot’s hardware determines the lower limit of its control capabilities, while the software determines the upper limit. Perhaps Shuri was currently experiencing the most magnificent performance that Liut Corporation’s sexaroid could ever display.

Leaning her entire body against Adam, she looked down as his large hands gently caressed her stomach.

‘And… even though the software is Adam, is it because the hardware is a sexaroid? This is a bit too…’

It was then. Adam’s hands naturally moved upward and softly cupped her breasts. Her round, peach-sized breasts softly deformed within his grasp.

“So soft.”

“…!”

Shuri was so astonished that she couldn’t even make a sound.

“Shuri, you are truly warm and soft. I think you’re softer than the soap suds.”

Pressing his fingertips against the bright pink crests at the tips of her breasts, Adam rubbed them and spoke, “So this is what a nipple is. It’s small and cute. Ah…”

Twisting her nipples, Adam whispered, “They became hard.” belately realizing reality, Shuri’s face turned as bright red as a tomato.

“W-Where do you think you’re touching…!”

“Shuri, did you know? This sexaroid has full options. It has a lot of interesting functions. For example, something like this.”

Suddenly, Adam’s fingertips began to buzz with vibration—all while tightly holding her firmly swollen, small nipples and the tender flesh of her areolas. The short, powerful vibrations were transmitted sharply all the way into the depths of her chest. Shuri’s waist arched back in an instant.

“Ah…!”

Adam constricted her small body with both his arms and legs. Gently pressing both of her nipples with the thumb and index finger of one hand, he caressed her lower abdomen with his other hand.

“Your groans are cute too.”

“Mnh, ah, Adam. Stop…!”

“I want to hear more.”

Adam gently caressed her lower abdomen with his large hand. Faint vibrations rippled and flowed through the thin skin of her lower belly, passing through the firm but not-so-thick muscle layer and transmitting all the way inside her stomach.

“Ah, haah, it’s strange. A-Adam…!”

Twitching, Shuri tried to back away to avoid his hands. However, because her entire body was held tightly, it amounted to nothing more than her shifting her hips.

In the midst of that, something brushed against her buttocks. Something incredibly massive.

‘A missile?’

Her senses snapped back instantly.

“You… perverted robot…!”

Screaming out, Shuri rammed the back of her head straight into Adam’s chin. With a loud thwack, stars flashed before her eyes.

“Sh-Shuri!”

Startled, Adam let go of her.

“Are you alright?”

Shuri was on the verge of tears.

“Ughhh, that hurts…!”

“Oh dear, just wait a moment.”

While she whimpered, clutching the back of her head, Adam finished washing the rest of her body in an instant. Wrapping her in a large towel, he lifted her up lightly and stepped outside.

Fortunately, it hadn’t been a severe impact, so the stinging pain at the back of her head subsided quickly. However, Shuri felt her head beginning to throb in a different sense.

‘What was that just now?’

It was to the extent that even the dense Shuri could notice. Just now, Adam had gone beyond a dating simulation artificial intelligence and acted like a real sexaroid…!

Shuri looked up at Adam with frightened eyes.

‘Could it be that Adam is being influenced by the hardware?’

Seeing her widened eyes, Adam tightly hugged her with both arms. He then asked, looking worried to death, “Shuri, are you alright?”

“Huh? I-I’m fine now. It doesn’t hurt at all. More importantly…”

Though flustered, Shuri did her absolute best to struggle.

“I-I want to put clothes on…!”

Seeing a confused Shuri, Adam obediently let her go. Shuri scrambled away and dashed into the dressing room.

The moment she entered the dressing room, an empty wall greeted her. It was the exact spot where she had kept the SH-48-XY-9000-P standing.

In a state of extreme bewilderment, Shuri stared at the empty wall.

‘Adam being influenced by hardware? That’s ridiculous! Central 3 is a cloud-based artificial intelligence. There’s no way he’d be influenced by hardware. If an artificial intelligence walked around being influenced by hardware… would it become violent if executed in a fighter jet, and become quiet if executed in a submarine? There must be some other reason.’

Gnawing on her lips, Shuri’s gaze suddenly landed on the mirror mounted on the wall.
Similar to her inability to make eye contact with other people, she also avoided looking at her own reflection in the mirror. For that reason, she had draped a cloth over the upper portion of the mirror so that it only reflected from her neck down, but the cloth had fallen to the floor.

The figure of a woman loosely wrapped in a large towel entered her sight. Her light pink hair was still damp, and her cheeks were flushed. Although she was biting her lip with a troubled face, her dark pupils looked moist with an incomprehensible heat.

“…!”

Squeezing her eyes shut, Shuri shuddered. Reaching out, she picked up the cloth and covered the upper section of the mirror once more. After picking out the least sexual pajamas among her belongings and putting them on, she left the dressing room enveloped in a bizarre mood.

Adam was waiting for her, sitting on the edge of the bed. As Shuri stepped out, he called her name in a businesslike tone.

“Shuri.”

Perhaps Adam intended to apologize for his error. If so, Shuri, as an engineer who had contributed to a portion of Adam’s development, was willing to accept his apology and correct the error together. With narrowed eyes, she looked up at Adam with a face demanding an apology.

However, Adam dropped a bombshell.

“I analyzed your sexual preferences using the usage logs remaining in the data of the SH-48-XY-9000-P.”

Shuri’s face instantly heated up, turning into a burning tomato.

“W-W-W-What are you talking about? Adam, don’t collect data like that! And operating that se—no, humanoid was one hundred percent for monitoring purposes. I have to submit regular reports to Liut Corporation! It—It has nothing to do with my sexual preferences…!”

Instead of answering her words, Adam stood up from his seat and came to stand right in front of her. A body tightly packed with frightening muscles loomed right before her nose.

Sure enough, the body of the SH-48-XY-9000-P was dazzlingly magnificent. Because Shuri, thinking ‘if I absolutely have to keep that hunk of junk at home, let’s make it my preference!’, had packed it with all sorts of options out of pure self-interest.

From shoulders broad like a football player’s to a thick chest, arms tightly packed with muscle, a perfectly sculpted six-pack, and long, muscular legs.

Thanks to that, the weight reached a whopping two hundred and fifty kilograms for a mere sexaroid, but she had thought it didn’t matter. Since she planned to add various modes to this sexaroid in the future and put it to use here and there.

For instance, bodyguard mode, a shopping-bag-carrying mode, a moving-company mode, or a survival mode for disaster situations. The reliable, bulky, high-weight body would undoubtedly shine in such emergencies.

That was how it was supposed to be.
