The night on this unfamiliar planet in the Andromeda galaxy was strangely beautiful. The diamond-made mountains shimmered in the moonlight, and a gentle fragrance drifted from the blue-colored trees. Inside our small cottage, Sona was sleeping peacefully. I stood on the balcony, lost in that beauty. It felt as if the cursed history of the Moreno lineage, the laboratory in Quebec, the ice of the Himalayas, and the catastrophic war inside the sun—all of it had been nothing but a nightmare that had faded away in this new dawn.Lucas stood beside me. He had now fully transformed into a human. His mechanical body, his wings—everything was now history. Only the mark of those golden wings remained on his back, reminding us of the past. Holding my hand, he smiled and said, “You know, Sophia, if I am ever born again, let me be captured once more by the magic in your eyes. This peaceful life is our true throne.”I rested my head on his shoulder. A strange calmness surrounded me. But that calm

The once peaceful shore had turned into a mechanical graveyard. The thousands of machine soldiers who looked exactly like Lucas—who had been kneeling before us—suddenly had their blue chest chips turn a blazing red.This wasn’t a simple malfunction.My father’s deadly Moreno Virus had taken away even our last hope.As the windows of our hut shattered into pieces, my father’s sinister laughter echoed through the black smoke.“Sophia… this empire built on Moreno blood will never be yours! Look at your so-called protector—those mechanical monsters are now coming to drink your blood!”A chill ran down my spine.Our four-year-old son, Sona, clutched my clothes tightly. His golden eyes were wide with fear. Lucas stepped forward with his diamond-like body, roaring in defiance—but something was wrong.His own limbs were no longer obeying him.He dropped to his knees, trembling in pain.“Sophia… run!” he gritted out, his voice breaking into mechanical distortion.“The virus… it has hacked my b

That morning by the sea was supposed to be peaceful, but the silver crown lying on the sand stole away every bit of calm from my life. The image of thousands of “Sona”-like figures from the hologram kept flashing before my eyes. I looked at my four-year-old child, dipping her feet into the salty water and drawing a strange pattern on the sand. It wasn’t random scribbles—it was a cosmic map, marking the location of a dark planet millions of light-years away from Earth.“Sona! What are you drawing?” My voice trembled with fear.Sona looked back at me. Her innocent golden eyes froze for a moment, as if processing data within. Then she smiled sweetly.“Mom, this is the map of our old home… where many friends like me live.”My heart skipped a beat. Had the lab-created clone Sophia succeeded? Was our Sona truly just a prototype?Lucas came and stood beside me. Though now human, the mechanical sensors within him hadn’t completely faded. He looked at the pattern on the sand and grew serious

When Andromeda’s silvery clouds engulfed the entire shore, it felt as if Earth’s gravity vanished in an instant. Before my eyes, Lucas—my companion in a life-and-death struggle—had turned into a tiny glass doll, barely an inch tall, lying helplessly on the sand. And my mother—whom I had found again after twenty long years—stood frozen in a strange guilt, staring at Arian.Arian—my stepbrother—his veins pulsing with blue lightning, looked at me with a sinister, enchanting smile.“Sister, your emotional world is so outdated. You’re still trapped in stories of love and sacrifice, while the universe now runs purely on energy. I’ve come to erase this old chapter forever.”With a mere gesture of his hand, my child—my precious four-year-old—was pulled toward him by an invisible force. My son screamed for me, but Arian’s electric aura imprisoned him.“The ‘void’ energy inside this child will now serve as fuel for my blade,” Arian said calmly.I charged at him with my silver sword, but Arian s

That enchanting afternoon by the sea turned toxic in an instant, swallowed by a venomous mist. When the digital genie emerging from that ancient clay lamp in Sona’s hand revealed my true identity with a hellish declaration, a freezing current ran down my spine. I—Sophia Moreno—not a human? A humanoid created by Arian? Were my twenty years of memories, my love for Lucas, my motherhood for Sona—nothing but mathematical code and data processing?“Lies! All lies!” I screamed, snatching the lamp from Sona and throwing it away. But the mechanical genie laughed, its voice tearing through the air. “Memories are no proof, Sophia! Touch the back of your neck—don’t you feel a subtle metallic mark? That is your serial number—Prototype-01!”Trembling, I reached behind my neck and felt something hard and cold beneath my skin. Lucas—now a mystical entity of water—looked at me with sorrowful eyes. His watery hand touched my cheek, but today, there was no warmth.“Did you know all along, Lucas?” I as
