Chapter 100:
Spice of life [Remake]
Mimi trembled as she struggled to comprehend everything that had just unfolded.
"Ah, and she said not to destroy the place too much. Well, guess the sprinkler system in this place is good. Now Mimi, ready to die?" Mille sneered as all the other cyborgs swarmed Mimi.
Mimi clutched her knife and vanished before reappearing and slicing through the horde of cyborgs.
"So you really do have the streghth to slice through us, well that won't save you- Oh?"
Mille retreated and gazed at her now severed arm. The other cyborgs immidiately stopped their assault and returned to Mille's side. Mimi meanwhile shot all of them a tearful glare.
"I'll free you, Mille," Mimi stated.
"Free? You think I was brainwashed like Vivi and forced to do Crimgulag's bidding against my will? No, I chose to join I.L.U. and sell you all out. You only lived because Vivi took you away after freezing you instead of handing you over to us," Mille sneered.
One of the cyborgs then attached the severed arm of one of their fallen comrades to Mille. Once Mille confirmed it was working, she and the cyborgs began their assault on Mimi anew. It went similarly to before, however after a certain amount of time, Mimi found herself unable to cut through the cyborgs.
"How!?" Mimi cried as her knife shattered to bits.
"Adapdability. We can evolve and adapt on the fly. That's just how the nanomachines that comprise our bodies work. Oh, and now that I've sent all this data to Master Laqutte, poor Rika won't be able to so much as scrath M45-4RU. I bet her knife will shatter on impact like yours!" Mille laughed.
"Ri-chan!? What do you mean!?"
"Well, since you're gonna die I'll tell you, Ri-chan's been captured and is currently imprisoned in the pit of Tartarus while our newest member, M45-4RU hunts her down. We were also ordered to kill her two closest friends, you and Waki so that she'll fall into even more despair once she comes back."
Mimi stood and trembled as she digested the information. Mille, meanwhile charged at breakneck speed and stabbed Mimi in the stomach with her blade arm. Blood trickled out of Mimi's mouth as she reached for her pocket and pulled out a flask.
"My, having a last drink, or is that milk? Well it won't heal you up fast- ...!?"
Mille glared in frustration as her arm became stuck in Mimi's stomach. Then to her surprise, the arm snapped off as Mimi backflipped away. Mimi then yanked the blade arm out of her stomach and took another sip from her flask. Mille's eyes widended in shock as Mimi's wound healed almost immidiately.
"Impossible! Milk can't heal you that quickly- ...!?"
Mille was cut off midsentence as she found herself beheaded once more. "This again? Well, you were pretty ditzy and could never understand tough concepts or even basic ones... HUH!?" Mille screamed in shock as all the remaining cyborgs, along with her headless body were sliced to bits in an instant.
"You told me something long ago; there was once a creature called a hydra that would survive even if it's head was cut off. When I asked Hylda about the beast, she explained the myth. She also said that in order to kill a Hydra, you destroy its body along with all its heads. It can't regrow heads if there's nothing to grow it from," Mimi coldly stated as she stabbed the blade arm into Waki's burnt corpse. Immidiately, the corpse transformed into a cyborg.
"Good going," the real Waki muttered as she laid on the ground.
After destroying the fake Waki in an instant, Mimi immidiately charged at Mille's head and sliced it to bits.
Suddenly, the remains of all the cyborgs including Mille and CH1-M3R4 were destroyed by dark black flames.
"Looks like you didn't need any help," Nero smirked as he entered.
"Nero!? ...!? Y- You're the real deal," Mimi trembled as Nero grabbed the blade arm from her and destroyed it with his flames.
"Yeah, though seems I'm going to have to destroy the Roboborg union," Nero glared as one of the bloodveins on his eyes crackled like lightning and grew a shade redder.
He then vanished as Mimi trembled in shock for a few moments.
"Oi, gonna save me? I'm already overcooked," Waki groaned.
"AH! I'm sorry!" Mimi cried as she picked up Waki and began running out with her.
