After Minister Clown took off his mask, the scarred face that was revealed made Gao Gong narrow his eyes.
Aramaki!
A young Aramaki, his hair not yet the Mediterranean style.
More like the Aramaki in 'memory'.
"You said Aramaki is the fortress's avatar, then who are you?"
"I'm Aramaki's avatar, to be precise, I'm the part of him that embodies humanity, the part that resists the fortress."
"Then why do you rebel against the fortress?" Gao Gong asked.
"Do humans need a reason to pursue freedom?"
"Trying to achieve freedom under the calculations of the Planet Host is not a simple task, how did you manage it?"
"The Deep Net helped me," seeing Gao Gong's peculiar look, he added, "It was the Deep Net in the form of the Planet Host, not in its Destruction Form state."
"Oh."
Seeing that Gao Gong had no particular expression, 'Aramaki' dropped another bombshell:
"Don't you want to know what the fortress dispatched me for, to infiltrate under the Deep Net's command?"
