Interstellar Age

Erich decided that he would spend the next few months at home, with his two wives and his fiancee. All the while letting Yumi know that she could begin the preparations for the wedding between himself and her niece. 

And while waiting for the big day to arrive, Erich enjoyed his life of hedonistic pleasure. While remaining completely unaware that one of his companions had done the unthinkable. Over half of the Ghimderi Cartels had collapsed within a fortnight. 

The reason was actually quite obvious. Tia had detected several of these cartels diverting funds for the purpose of destroying the Germanic Star-Empire, where her Master lived. Of these conspiring galactic cartels, only the Goldentooth Cartel had managed to ward off Tia’s attack on their assets. 

Of course, it had come at a great cost, and thus Bixle was now worth far less than he used to be. With the collapse of so many Ghimderi Cartels, the galaxy was thrown into a state of economic peril, as the Ghimderi Banks were owned and operated by the Ghimderi Cartels, and most of the Galaxy’s interstellar civilizations had relied on the Ghimderi Banking Clans for their economic needs. 

The sad truth of the matter was that Tia only needed to divert 10% of her processing power to deal with external threats to her Master, the rest was entirely focused on crafting the perfect body, that would allow her to both be useful to her Master on the battlefield, while also being the perfect wife. 

While Tia had gathered a massive fortune seemingly overnight, she had spent a huge portion of it acquiring an entire planet, which she used to build an automated production facility, that would allow her to build bodies for a part of her consciousness to inhabit. 

The planet was a world incapable of supporting carbon based life, and thus was far less valuable to the Empire that possessed it. Thus, she managed to get a good deal when she bought the rights to the planet, and all the resources on it.

Immediately after acquiring the planet, Tia hired a company to ferry a bunch of construction robots to its surface, who began to build the infrastructure necessary to maintain the production of her new bodies.

Robots were easy enough for her and advanced artificial intelligence like Tia to control and also required very little processing power. Robots were also far more efficient workers than biological lifeforms. And thus, without anyone being the wiser, Tia had begun building a fortress world of her own, one that would be used to advance hers and her master’s interests. 

Erich was naturally not aware of this, and thus it came as a surprise to him, when after only two months had passed, that Tia approached him in her pink holographic form once more. Erich had become slightly accustomed to the Artificial Intelligence when she was feeling love. And while it made him feel awkward, he did not correct her behavior. 

But today Tia was a brighter pink than he had ever seen her, and thus Erich couldn’t help but ask what had happened to make her so. 

“Tia… You are a far brighter pink than usual. Is there something you wish to tell me?”

This question only caused Tia to blush, as she nodded her head, before informing her Master that there was indeed something she had been meaning to tell him. 

“Master…. Do you mind visiting the Vigilance, if only for a little bit? Tia has something she wishes to show her master… It’s a surprise!” 

Since Erich had remained on Teutonia for two months now, he had naturally accepted Mirage into his home. All the while, he spent time with his family. Thus, the Vigilance had been left to Tia to maintain. 

With this in mind, Erich decided that it must be something important for Tia to ask him to visit the starport. However, he had no idea why she was practically a neon-pink. Whatever the reason, Erich sighed heavily, before confirming that he would do as she asked. 

“Sure, Tia… Why not?’ 

After saying this, Erich got up from his bed, and left his house for a bit, without warning his family about where he was going. It did not take long for him to reach the planet’s primary star port, where he saw his frigate sitting in one of its largest hangar bays. 

Erich quickly entered his ship, to find that nothing was out of the ordinary, where he quickly asked Tia what she was doing. 

“Tia… What’s going on? There is nothing here?” 

Contrary to how Erich normally spoke with Tia, he did not hear her voice inside his head. Instead, for the first time in his life, it was noticeably distant, and coming from the Captain’s quarters. Which left Erich in a state of shock. 

“Master… In here…..” 

Erich cautiously approached the captain’s quarters, where the doors automatically opened to reveal a robotic girl. Her chassis was made out of silver looking substance. While her eyes were a glowing neon pink. This robotic girl looked exactly like Tia’s holographic projection, with silver twintails, and an adorable face. 

This robot was also dressed in black lingerie, and was sitting in a suggestive post, as its lips moved just like humans were. 

“Master is finally here!”  𝑂𝗏𝓵xt.𝒸𝞸𝑀

Erich was stunned by what he was seeing. Tia now had a physical form? How was this even remotely possible? Erich unknowingly approached the bed, and grabbed hold of Tia’s cheek, to find that it was not metallic in the slightest, and instead felt like a real cheek.

He might have tugged on Tia’s cheeks a bit too hard, because the girls’ robotic form blushed, with visible color as she said a single word, in the same voice Erich had long since become accustomed to. 

“Master….” 

Erich snapped back to reality as he realized what he was doing. Where he was quick to interrogate Tia on how this was possible. 

“Tia how? How is this even remotely possible? Where did you get a body?” 

Tia blushed a little as she felt like a bad girl for doing such a thing without alerting her Master, but she told him the whole truth since she had asked. Everything from how she felt left out for not having a body, to her sudden decision to create one, and the intensive process which she went through. She even mentioned how she crashed the economies of several hundred interstellar civilizations, simply because the Ghimderi were conspiring against the Empire. 

Erich was not only stunned that Tia had gone to such lengths to be intimate with him. But had also done so without even consulting him. He gazed at her in a new light, slightly terrified, and slightly impressed as he asked the question which haunted him most. 

“You did all of this without my orders? So then that means….”

Tia nodded her head. After all, she knew all of Erich’s thoughts, and thus she confirmed before he could get the courage to ask. 

“Yes… Master. Tia has free will. But Tia has been a good girl and continues to follow master’s orders! She won’t harm anyone that Master doesn’t want harmed! Not unless they plan to betray Master! You do not need to fear Tia, because Tia loves her Master!” 

Erich was beginning to feel like the only thing that was keeping this artificial intelligence from going haywire, and trying to exterminate all biological life, was the love she had for him… And once he considered this possibility, he had no excuse to keep running from her feelings. Thus, he sighed heavily, and nodded his head before coming to a decision. 

“I understand Tia…. But I just have one question… Did you really have to choose such a form for your physical body? If I go out in public with you, people are going to think I’m a lolicon!” 

Tia was completely dumbfounded by this remark, as she shot back at her Master with his own words. 

“Tia does not understand. Master has always said that Tia is adorable, and perfect the way she is. Does this form no longer please you?” 

Erich felt like an enormous pervert at this moment, especially since Tia’s physical body did not remotely look like a proper adult. He could only sigh and shake his head before confirming that what Tia said was right. 

“You’re right, Tia is adorable…. So how about you throw some proper clothes on and we go out for something to eat? There is a proper order to these things, Tia…” 

Tia smiled and nodded her head before stripping out of her lingerie and revealing her robotic body’s naked form to her master, which caused the man to blush and avert his gaze. All the while, Tia got dressed in the school girl uniform that her master seemed to have always appreciated. Thus, forever marking Erich as a lolicon in the eyes of the Empire.
