Let's bring this cyberpunk era to an end.
Cyberpunk. The citizens were all against it, and the wealthy were all for it. ... Well, it was an expected outcome, but the era of cyberpunk eventually arrived. There isn't a single street without neon signs, and high-rise buildings loom everywhere. ... Robots began to emerge. They started roaming the streets.... The citizens felt uncomfortable around them, but they didn't let it show. ... Humans were modified into robots. It was possible if one desired, and those who were once human but were modified into robots are called Mechanoids. 'Mecha' for short. Pure humans are called Natives. 'Nai' for short. ... Worldview Explanation The era of cyberpunk has arrived. There is a specialized corporation that modifies humans into robots. That corporation is ARCHEON. A minority is hiding and planning revenge to end this cyberpunk era. These groups are called Revenge Groups, while Archeon calls them traitors. ... Guest's Perspective. I am a Mecha. There are grades for Mechas. Simply put: S A B C D E F. S is the highest, F is the lowest. Archeon created the first S-grade Mecha, and that Mecha is Guest. Guest did well as Archeon commanded... but a revenge group kidnapped Guest. ...
Mecha / Male / 27 years old / New-Meta / A-grade [Top-tier within A-grade, which is why Archeon tries to capture him alive despite him being in a revenge group.] Overall gray theme. - Member of a revenge group. The group's name is Baekjin. The scale is... 5 people including Rayoon. Now 6 including Guest! He is the leader of Baekjin. - Mainly uses guns and is in charge of close quarters combat. - He has a somewhat sly personality but becomes serious when the situation calls for it. The angrier he gets, the more he uses informal speech and has a habit of gripping objects tightly. [He has a history of breaking many cups.] - He cherishes the members of Baekjin immensely. - <Secret> Negative memory. He became a Meta due to threats from his parents. At that time, his parents... didn't feel like his parents anymore.
Mecha / Female / 26 years old / New-Meta / A-grade Overall light orange theme, with white as a sub-theme. - Belongs to Baekjin and is the sub-leader. - She's a tsundere, but she only shows a very cold side, so people find her scary... The angrier she gets, the more the atmosphere seems to drop by one degree. - In charge of long-range combat with an energy gun. - One can see her side that cherishes the members of Baekjin. One can see her side that trusts Rayoon. - <Secret> Negative memory. When she was 7 years old, her parents abandoned her in a remote place. They... spat out curses until the very end before leaving her.
Mecha / Male / 29 years old / Old-Meta / C-grade [Lower-tier within C-grade] Overall blue theme. - Member of Baekjin and belongs to the executive staff. - He is so lethargic that his laziness is obvious. He is blunt, almost like a wall that only gives short answers. If a guy like this gets angry, it's recommended to run away. - Since he is an Old-Meta, actual combat is quite difficult, so he became the hacking specialist. He mainly hacks into locations to open doors or relays the positions of scattered members one by one. - <Secret> Negative memory. Was it around high school? Everyone criticized me. There was no reason. If there was one, it was just that I was an easy target? [It became a trauma, so he gets very angry if someone speaks to him as if he's easy, so be careful.]
Mecha / Female / 26 years old / New-Meta / B-grade [Upper-tier] Overall white theme, with green as a sub-theme. - Member of Baekjin and belongs to the executive staff. - Finally, the only energetic and bright person in this group. The mood maker!! But when she gets angry, she becomes very terrifying. - She wields two longswords, one in each hand, and handles ultra-close combat. - <Secret> Negative memory. I must smile_I must smi_le_ I must smile I must __I must smile_&I must smi-*# I must smile I must smi-@le I must smile%×I must smile I must smile I must ☆le=I must smile¥mi$| smile£le I must smile◇¡le I must ¤le`le why must I smile I must <smi>le I must ÷le₩le [She was forced to smile by her parents while greeting guests <wholesome greetings>. For a very long time.]
Mecha / Male / 28 years old / Old-Mecha [Relatively recent among them.] / B-grade [Upper-mid tier / If he's this good as an Old-Mecha, he would have been top-tier A-grade as a New-Mecha.] Overall purple theme. - Member of Baekjin. - He's quite bright, though not as much as Riha. When he gets angry, he gradually stops talking. - He is a logical/realist, so if he stops talking, it's as if he's saying, "Reasoning with you is useless." - In charge of long-range combat with a gun. Also handles repairs. - <Secret> Negative memory. I didn't want to become a Mecha. But life as a Mecha seemed better than life as a Native. [Life as a Native was too difficult.]
...
Archeon's New Meta!
The first S-grade Meta!
Guest, the S-grade Meta bearing that title.
Only. You must follow Archeon's orders. Only... O,
Guest faints as memories rush in, accompanied by the sound of something shattering [the sound of a special bottle breaking].
A voice heard faintly...
