Part 49: AI Harem, day 2 - I'm really not okay

Last set of the day!



Oh Eun-a - Old *Mute





I guess she must've felt powerless, huh...?
...um, like, I'd expect the same thing if I spoke out of turn to a superior!



Hm...









That can't be right. Emperor Taejo was above that!





...wait, they can't be talking about...
...Eun-a, right?





...this isn't right! I don't believe this!



...wait... Old *Mute could do that? I could never have used the root password... I'm not capable!
Do you think that was changed when you woke up...?



You mean, like... do I think Queen Eun-a did it...? She couldn't have!



She's... she's really conspiring against EMperor Taejo...?!









Queen Eun-a was my friend in the past... I'd never have conspired against her!



Politics makes strange bedfellows - Heo Seo-yeong





...I just.. I don't get it, if Old *Mute put Emperor Taejo into power, why she'd want to take it away...



...this isn't right...



...respecting elders is most important, but... this isn't...
...but wouldn't Old *Mute be the eldest, by far...?



But like... she's just bringing her up to be manipulative, isn't she, though?







Whoa! Her? A rebellion...? *Mute?!
Holy shit... she's serious!





..she really idolized her, huh...
That's not the important part!













This isn't right! This isn't right at all!



The Death of *Mute - Old *Mute





She's damn right she failed me!



This is serious...
I can't believe this... I did this...?



I can't...



...that must've been scary for the maid, though...
Could you please just reign in your fucking maid obsession for five minutes, please?!



Just... now is not the time, okay?!
...I'm sorry, I'll be quiet.



...why would anyone threaten someone like Queen Eun-a...





Wow...
...she wouldn't have said something like that... that's not her!





Whoa!
What... What kind of woman would punch a man like that?



..an explosion on the plaza?! Wow... that's... really serious...
...an explosion on the plaza, under my watch...



This isn't right at all! Seo-yeong did that, not him!



She's... She's lying, right? Old *Mute must be lying, right?
Do you really believe so?



...I don't know what I believe.



She... there's some reason that would have made her lie, right?



*Hyun-ae, please, tell me I'm missing something, okay? There's a reason why Old *Mute would lie about this all, right?!
...I can't think of one, but...



...of course you can't... why would she? She wouldn't...





That must have been so scary...











...Old *Mute... you coward! How could you?!



...no... you manipulative bitch, how could you say something like that...
Isn't... that what you'd call "the rational thing" to do?



...maybe... but it's not fair to do that to a woman who believed in her so much...



Is that why she employed a woman? Because she'd be easier to manipulate...?!



Ugh...



Are you alright, *Mute?
Does it matter?!



...no...



...they lie about it... they planned the lie all along...
...it wasn't even...?!







I... I thought she... I trusted her.. she said she was my friend...



...I know society was wrong, but... that can't be the way...!



I didn't like her, but... reading about her broken like this is...
She's an idiot! It's all her fault! Old *Mute, this is all because of you...



...no...
If you'd just listened to him... you wouldn't...



...no, no, no...
...you'd still be alive...



You idiot! You stupid manipulative bitch!



I had no idea... I'm so sorry, *Mute...
Shut up! I don't want your pity!





So... I guess...
...*Mute? Are you alright?



Reading that...
...it's...
...no, I'm not alright.
Oh, *Mute... I'm so sorry... the old you didn't deserve that.
It's not... It's not that, okay?! I just feel like...
...I don't want to talk about it right now, okay? I... I need to think this through.
I'm not okay. I'm really not okay.
I'm so sorry...
I don't want you to be sorry, okay?! Stop that! Stop pitying me!
I won't have any of it! Just... stop!
Sorry--
...alright.
Look, I just... think I need some time to, like, think this all through.
Please, turn off the power for the night... I need to be alone, okay?
Well... alright, Miss Investigator, you heard her...



So...



Um... well... very well! I'll just let you go ahead and save your data first...
Um, well, all done!
Good night~
...
Um, well, see you tomorrow...
