Inside Setsuka's apartment, hours after she defeated Vacuum Woman
"So I've decided to let you live. But I would like you to know the one rule that I want you to follow if you want to live." Setsuka told Vacuum Woman as she emitted a menacing aura.
And Vacuum Woman, who was currently wearing one of Setsuka's t-shirts as a dress of sorts, rapidly nodded her head.
Sanju was also present, as she silently sat in the corner of the room while looking at Vacuum Woman with narrowed eyes.
"All that I ask of you is to have to stop killing humans and also stop harming civilians. I get that you might want to destroy humans and all that, but if you wish for me to let you live then I have to make sure that you don't go about making a scene with the humans as much as possible. You do anything bad to humans then I will personally eliminate you. As long as you're able to do that, then you're free to do whatever you want and we'll have no problems with each other understood?" Setsuka said with a firm voice.
"Yes ma'am." Vacuum Woman meekly agreed to Setsuka's words, remembering how she had effortlessly defeated a monster that was decently strong (at least in her eyes, though she was sure she could defeat it effortlessly) with a single punch while they were making their way towards Setsuka's home.
"Great! Then welcome to your new home!" Setsuka shouted with an excited voice as she then proceeded to hug the pink monster.
"but please don't call me ma'am. That make me sound like an old woman." Setsuka begged the pink monster that she was hugging with a pout on her face, to which the pink monster nodded.
"Are you sure that we should simply let her live with such a light threat Setsuka?"Sanju said while she gave Vacuum Woman the stink eye.
"Ah, don't worry about it. I beat up this huge monster on the way home, and she's been acting quiet ever since. I think that she gets the message. Isn't that right my cute little hug pillow?" Setsuka alleviated the concerns in a casual manner while she rubbed her cheeks with the cheeks of her .
"Yes Setsuka." Vacuum Woman responded to Setsuka's question with a monotonous voice.
"Oh, that's good then. I'm going to get myself some snacks for now." the slime monster said as she pouted before she left the living room/dining room of the tiny apartment.
'Maybe I should cuddle with Sanju later on.' Setsuka thought to herself, deciding to cheer up the slime monster who had been living with her for all these years.
'I guess I'm going to be stuck with the two of them for the foreseeable future.' Vacuum Woman thought to herself, having accepted her fate.
The Ghost Town of City Z, 1408th day since Setsuka's training regiment began
At the door that led to Setsuka's apartment, the cyborg that Vacuum Woman was about to defeat was standing in front of the door with a blank expression on her face.
The female cyborg was currently wearing a black bodysuit with parts of the bodysuit being covered in orange lines. She also had a pair of orange-tinted goggles on the top of her forehead.
'I may have left a bad first impression on my saviour, but that does not mean that I have to give up my efforts of getting close to her. I am glad that she offered to become my friend before she dropped me of to father's lab. I can always learn from her during her battles if we end up becoming friends.' the young female cyborg thought to herself as she cleared her throat so that she could make her presence known.
"Lady Setsuka!" the young cyborg announced herself with a serious tone in her voice.
But not long after this, the door began to open and Setsuka peaked her head out the door that she had opened.
Setsuka was wearing her hero costume, seeing as she was about to go out of town in order to do some hero work.
"Oh, so you actually accepted my offer of friendship huh? I figured that you wouldn't actually come to me after I rejected your offer to become my disciple. But just to clear things between us, are you looking to become my disciple like last time?" Setsuka asked the cyborg standing in front of her while she raised an eyebrow at her.
"No Lady Setsuka, I only wish to get to know my saviour personally. You have made it clear that you do not want to have a disciple so I will not ask you to take me under your tutelage." the black-haired cyborg stated as she looked at Setsuka with a stoic expression on her face.
"Hmm…Alright then, I think you can come in. And please don't call me Lady Setsuka. I did tell you to call me Setsuka remember?" the bald woman said as she opened the door so that her unexpected guest could enter her apartment.
"Understood!" the female cyborg said as she entered Setsuka's house.
"Make yourself comfortable while I get some snacks. Oh, I should ask you first. You can eat meals right?" Setsuka asked her guest.
"I am capable of eating organic meals because I am not fully mechanized." the female cyborg assured her host as she sat at on the matted floor of the living room/dining room of Setsuka's apartment.
"Good to know." was all Setsuka said before she made her way to her kitchen in order to get some snacks that she kept.
"So, I think you should introduce yourself to me. How about it?" Setsuka asked the youg cyborg sitting in front of her.
"My name is Ginka, my lady." the femal cyborg introduced herself to Setsuka.
"That's a nice name you got there. And I see that you are back in one piece. Are you always repaired in just a couple of days?" Setsuka asked Ginka, somewhat curious as to how quickly she had been repaired.
"Yes Setsuka. Most of my organic body has been replaced with mechanical parts, so replacing my body parts is only a matter of whether the body parts are available. Also, I would like to thank you for your consideration about my body parts when the flying monster tore them apart from me." Ginka answered Setsuka's question about the state of her body.
"Eh, don't worry about it. A hero's gotta do at least this much right?" Setsuka waved of Ginka's thanks.
"Alright then. But do you have any body parts attached to you Setsuka?" Ginka suddenly asked her host.
"I'm not a cyborg." Setsuka blandly gave her response to Ginka's question.
"Then what about the shiny skin-like armor on the top of your head?" Ginka asked Setsuka.
"That's just my head, dude." the bald woman asked with a sweatdrop appearing on the back of her head.
"Strange. It is too soon for you to be bald at such a young age." Ginka said to herself as she looked at her host's head while making a thinking pose.
"So I'm bald. You got a problem with that?" Setsuka yelled at Ginka as she made an angry face.
"No Setsu-"
"Man, today's training sure was very exhausting!" Sanju's voice could be heard from the door of the apartment, having incidentally interrupted Ginka from responding to Setsuka's outburst.
"Are you expecting guests?" Ginka asked as she made her way towards the
"Oh no. She's my adorable roommate." Setsuka answered the young cyborg's question.
"Hey Setsuka! You won't believe-" Sanju was about to say before she saw Ginka sitting in front of Setsuka.
"Who are you?" Sanju asked the young cyborg who was sitting in front of Setsuka as she frowned at Ginka.
"Oh, this is Ginka. We met a few days ago and she wishes to be my friend." Setsuka introduced the young cyborg to her slimy roommate.
"Sure, but did you really have to invite her over on such short notice?" Sanju asked Setsuka as she went over to the bald woman's side before hugging her waist while resting her head on Setsuka's shoulder.
"Why? I don't think it would be a big deal Sanju." Setsuka told the slime monster sitting right next to her.
"I assure you that I only wish to be friends with Setsuka." Ginka stated from where she sat.
'I think I'll let it go for now. But don't think that you're in the clear just yet you cyborg.' Sanju thought to herself as she eyed the young cyborg sitting in front of her with her narrowed eyes.
"If you say so. Anyways, what were you two talking about?" Sanju asked Setsuka as she continued to affectionately hug her bald roommate.
"Well, we were just getting to know each other." Setsuka said.
"That is correct." Ginka confirmed Setsuka's statement in a blunt manner.
"Cool, cool. But I'm curious, what type of cyborg are you? Yo look very much like a human." Sanju questioned Ginka, as she had never seen a cyborg that could pass for a human.
"I am a cyborg with a highly advanced skin-like armor that was colored to take the appearance of human skin and most of my body has been replaced with nanobots that allow me to take on many forms." Ginka answered the slime monster's questions.
"Nanobots?" Setsuka said with a confused expression on her face.
"That is correct. I am a cyborg like no other because of the technology that makes up a majority of my body parts." Ginka told the two residents of the apartment as her voice had the tiniest hint of a smug tone to it.
"Anyways…What's your backstory?" Sanju inquired of the female cyborg.
'Come on Sanju! Why did you ask for her backstory?' Setsuka screamed in her mind, as she suddenly began to dread the fact that she now had to hear Ginka's backstory.
"Very well. I shall share my story with you two." Ginka replied as she prepared to tell her hosts her life story.
'I get the feeling that we're going to be here for a while.' Setsuka thought to herself as she wryly smiled at Ginka.
Meanwhile, within an unknown location
Deep within a strange forest, there was a light brown building with eight floors erected next to one the mountains located in the area. And within one of the dimly rooms of said building, a man in glasses that looked to be in his thirties was wearing a black collared shirt, a blue tie and black trousers who was currently sitting in front of a computer screen looking over the images of a naked bald woman effortlessly defeating one of his creations.
"Mosquito Girl was defeated? And in a single hit you say? Well, she was merely a prototype after all." the bespectacled man stated aloud as he continued to observe the defeat of his prototype creation from different angles.
"Why is she naked?" the well dressed man asked to the one making the report to him.
"Unknown." another voice in the room answered the man.
"Well, whatever. She'll make an excellent specimen. We shall study her physiology-by force if necessary. Send a messenger and invite him here to our House of Evolution." the man in glasses said while smirking slightly thinking of the possibilities that studying the bald woman would bring for his research.
A few minutes after Ginka had entered Setsuka's apartment
Outside in a part of the abandoned streets of City Z, five monsters could be seen waiting around one of the buildings that stood right next to the apartment of their target.
"I'm tired of waiting for the creator's orders! Can't we just go and capture our target already?!" a humanoid lion with a bulky build that was significantly taller than the average human complained. He was wearing a pair of large bracelets, a chain with the image of a lion, red shorts and a black sleeveless shirt that clung to his chest.
"Please be patient Beast King. You will get your chance to subdue the target." another figure who was standing next to the humanoid lion replied.
He was a large gorilla whose entire body was covered in metal armor that had a silver shine to it.
"Raaah! I know that! I just wish that we could just barge in there and capture the human so that we can get this over with." Beast King shouted out his frustration as they continued to wait for the order to subdue their target.
"But come on Armored Gorilla! Aren't you excited to test your skills against a target that the master hyped up the way he did after hearing the briefing that he gave us!" a monster stated his agreement with the words of the Beast King.
He was a green monster with an average build with a part of his head being covered by a spherical glass container through which his brain became visible for all to see and sharp teeth with two of them coming out like tusks from the sides of his face. He also had a pair of bladed hands attached to the parts of his body where his arms should have been, along with a few spikes on his back and feet that looked similar to the talons of a bird.
"We must still wait for the master's command. It would be bad for us if the master were to find out that we disobeyed him." Armored Gorilla reminded his fellow brethren, not bothering to answer the bug-like mutant's question.
"Excuse me, Beast King sir, what are we supposed to do about the young woman that entered the target's home?" a humanoid frog monster that looked like a mix between a frog and a human asked the stronger looking monsters.
He was wearing a pair of white shorts that covered his knees and a black sash-like clothing around his waist along with a pair of sandals over his webbed feet. The monster was also wielding a sheathed blade on the left side of his hip and he had a tattoo on the left side of his arm.
"Why would you ask something so dumb? Of course we're going to kill the stupid human!" Beast King admonished his fellow monster.
"We have been ordered to eliminate anyone who would get in our way. Is that understood, Frog Man?" Armored Gorilla confirmed the order that their creator had given them.
"Yes Armored Gorilla." the frog mutant said with a bit of a shaky voice as he backed away from the larger mutants.
"Beast King, Kamakyuri, I would recommend that we talk about other stuff until we have received our orders." the cybernetic gorilla suggested to his fellow mutants.
"Huh, fine. I guess I can wait for a few more minutes." Beast King begrudgingly accepted as he sat down on the floor near the shade of a tree that was located nearby.
And with that, the five mutants were waiting for the order to subdue their target, the mutants began to converse with each other about a variety of topics ranging from the missions that they had been given to their daily routines.
And as the mutants continued to converse with each other, Armored Gorilla's head suddenly opened up before a small satellite came out from within his head.
"The doctor has given us the command to move." Armored Gorilla briefly relayed his creator's message to his fellow mutants.
"Finally! Time for some action! I'll be waiting for you to lure her out form me Kamakyuri!" Beast King shouted out once the order was given, while he began to look for a placehide himself for the time being.
"Of course! I plan to do it in style!" Kamakyuri declared as he began to climb the walls of the building that he was standing next to, since he planned to break the ceiling of their target's residence.
The rest of the gathered monsters silently prepared themselves to the best of their abilities, in order to capture their target as quickly as possible.
