"This is where it is. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

In front of me, there was a crying little boy.

The name is ...... Yagami Taiichi ......

- So who am?

The shadow-like existence floating in front of the boy gradually changed from transparent to solid.

"You are me."

Yagami Taichi stopped crying, and his face was filled with the smile of a successful conspiracy.

"More precisely, you are my courage."

Stretching widely, Yatagami wiped the tears from her face.

"It took a lot of effort to separate you from me."

"Separation?" The shadow muttered the same word Taiyi had just said.

"It's certainly impossible to say in the real world. It's not like in Dragon Ball, where the god's own evil thoughts are separated from his body and become the Great Demon King of Vic. But this is the world of data, and because it is data, it is possible to manipulate emotions. ”

The shadow can understand Taiyi's words, because as Taiyi said at the beginning, the shadow is Taiyi himself, and the shadow can read Taiyi's memory, so Shadow knows what Taiyi is making an analogy.

"So you just ......"

"yes, by changing your own fear level to find the string of data that makes up the concept of fear. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly, though. ”

"Why?" Shadow asked.

"It's fun."

"Aren't you an adult for this kind of reason? Do adults decide to act in this way? ”

"Isn't it okay for adults to do things according to their own preferences? It seems a little different from what I imagined, and your way of thinking is still a little different from mine. After all, it's not exactly me. ”

It's too little bit of a shadow on the forehead.

"Think about what you become."

- I'm ......

Created out of thin air, this kind of thing is something that only God can do. And Taiyi's ability is not yet up to that level, he can only manipulate the data around him.

Even if you succeed in separating the string of data from your own program, you must find something that already exists to rely on in order for it to exist in the world as an independent entity.

Taiyi chose to rely on the terminal of data operation, that is, the digital machine in his hand.

The shadow is the entity that the digital machine becomes after being forced by the Taiyi to impose its own data.

Although it was a digital machine, he was not a digital machine. He is the courage of the One, a fearless individual.

At this time, Taiyi made another move. A series of machine codes in his hand entered the shadow's body through a finger tapped on the shadow's forehead.

"You are me, so in this time, you can live in the digital world instead of me."

Is the input data? Probably not. Entering the shadow body is Taiyi's own consciousness.

"Wait for me in the real world." With that, the man opened a dark hole from behind him.

The hole engulfed the man, but left the shadow in place.

Shadow, no, should be called the One by now.

It took Taiyi a while to understand the current situation, and the person disappeared, and he was swallowed by the black hole for some reason. Where is that person now, he doesn't know.

But he knew that the man had created him because he had anticipated this situation.

One as a replica of the One (henceforth it will be called the One).

"I didn't expect to encounter such a strange thing." After receiving the consciousness transmitted by that person, Taiyi has become the only Taiyi in the digital world.

"It's almost like a dream to enter the digital world, but it's more like a dream."

Although he knew that he was a clone, he had no sense of disobedience.

Memories of reality, memories of travel, memories of companions, and memories of past lives.

Because it's all data, because it's all moved into this body by that person, these are basically his own memories.

He was wearing the same outfit he wore when he went to summer camp.

"To put it simply, now I'm a digital machine. And if it's courage......"

Taiichi found himself wearing the badge in the Evolution Key on his chest, radiating light and heat like a fire. But it doesn't feel "hot" at all, but rather warm.

"Is that what it's all about separating courage? Because there is no fixed explanation for the concept of courage itself, look for its negative data. What a whimsical guy. ”

Anyway, it's a pretty good feeling.

Thinking back to what had happened, Taiichi remembered that his purpose was to find the mechanical tyrannosaurmon and then rescue the sender with the badge.

It's just that at the moment, it seems that he is not in that passage. He was now in a strange place where there was no concept of up, down, left, right, gravity, color and light.

He remembered that after the person was trapped by the maze program that he couldn't get out of, he activated the power of "delete" and destroyed the entire area.

"Really." Taiyi thought in pieces, and then swiped forward with his hand.

A crack appeared in front of him.

The molecular beast stared blankly at the human who suddenly appeared in front of him.

Without the slightest warning, without any movement. It just appeared in the control room so suddenly.

"Sure enough, it's a molecular beast." The man muttered to himself, then walked over to the Molecular Beast.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Taichi Yagami. First meeting. ”

"Are you...... The chosen child who was trapped in the maze procedure by me. How is it possible, it is supposed to be an unsolvable dark spiral labyrinth, how can you possibly escape from there? ”

"Sure enough, it's your hands and feet. How's that, want to know? If you want to know, come to me. ”

"If you don't say it, I'm not very interested." The molecular beast shook its head in refusal.

Actually, the method used by Taiyi is not troublesome. Since humans are just a program in this digital world, he uses his characteristics as a digital terminal to directly package this program and send it to the molecular beast's mailbox as an email.

In the digital world, it corresponds to "a." The location of this email address is the control room where the molecular beast is sealed.

The act of sending an email into the mailbox corresponds to the concept of "transmission" in the digital world.

Because the "brave" component of Taiyi's personality is now set to the maximum, and he is affected by this, so he doesn't care about success or failure at all. I thought of a possibility and tried it. If it was the Taiyi before, I was afraid that I would stay away from this kind of thing that I didn't know what the result would be.

"Molecular beast, do you want me to let you out?" Taiyi asked.

"What do you want to do?" The molecular beast also saw that this guy in front of him was different from the other chosen children, and it was probably not easy to fool the past.

"How about being my ally?" Taiyi said with a smile.

"Who is going to be your subordinate...... Wait, you say allies? The Molecular Beast didn't react for a moment.

"Or a partner or something, how?"

"If you let me out, I'll think about it. Let's go and open the wrench over there, there are two combination locks in it, left-hand ......"

"It doesn't need to be that much trouble." Taiichi walked up to the inverted tetrahedron and touched one of the sides of the tetrahedron with his fingers.

Delete the command to initiate.

Strings of data that are so small that they are indistinguishable appear at the fingertips, and all the "1s" in the string become "0s" at a very fast speed.

The seal of astonishing strength turned into a pile of fragments like broken glass scattered to the ground a second after Taiyi's finger left.

"What kind of power is this......"

The Molecular Beast was speechless in shock, it was beyond his comprehension.

Taiyi didn't bother to answer the molecular beast's doubts, he touched the small tetrahedron inside the big seal again, and then, the second seal was also broken.

The Molecular Beast has been freed.

"The strength of my ally is okay, right?" Taiyi's hands hung casually at his sides, looking at the molecular beast with a smile.

The Molecular Beast was shocked.

He remained speechless, if it had the idea of getting away with it just now, but now it was completely frightened by the ability that Taiyi had shown.

This is not a power that Digimon can have, or rather, this is not a power that should exist in this world.

"Are you really human?" The molecular beast asked.

"Probably, it's not counted anymore." Taiyi answered him indifferently.
