“Why’s that, Oleon?”

“You used your abilities to get me out of trouble. I think it could be a bad thing if everyone who got into trouble ran around thinking, ‘MC will rescue me.’ A major limitation you have is that you can only be in one place at a time.”

This is a secret — one that if you disclose, is punishable by death at my hands. I was born in a lab, as a genetically enhanced human. My reflexes and my strength exceed yours. As I grew to adulthood, I was further modified with cybernetic enhancements. This is the least of them.” She held up both of her hands and extruded her talons. When she retracted them, she said, “I was designed to be a killing machine, a semi-cybernetic assassin.”
