Skyler turned toward 505, his eyes kind, though his next words were anything but.
"Now, be a good boy. Take the power of their systems and override them so they will obey you. Then, sever their link to the main system, just as you severed yours."
505 nearly fainted upon hearing him, but despite the shock, it couldn't help but ask.
("H-Host, how do you know that a system can absorb the power of other systems to grow stronger? Although systems can grow stronger alongside their host... the second method is taboo! No one is allowed to even speak of it! So, how did you know? QAQ")
Skyler blinked, his mind going blank for a second at the question. Then, he frowned.
"Right… how do I know? I just have this feeling someone told me. But who?"
He attempted to speak with the figures in his subconscious, thinking they had placed the thought in his mind, but all he received was silence. In the end, he just shrugged.
