I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

...Riko is being examined...

Riko looked at the excited expression on the mechanical loli's face, swung her little fists, and said:

"Alright! Let's begin the inspection now!"

"Oh~!"

Yuhaka, who was joining in the fun, also raised her little paws and made an "oh" sound, while Nanachi, holding her fluffy hands, shook her head with a helpless expression and said:

"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."

Riko took out a small knife specially used by cave explorers and said to Yuhaka with a smile:

"Let's dissect it first!"

As she spoke, Rico began to use a knife to try and cut into the mechanical loli's skin.

"Mmm...mmm...mmm...!!"

Riko tried desperately with the knife in her hand to cut open the mechanical loli's skin, but unfortunately, not only did she fail to cut through the mechanical loli's skin, she didn't even leave a trace of white mark on it.

Riko looked at the small knife in her hand, now riddled with nicks and chips, with bright, sparkling eyes, and said:

"Wow~ Sugoi! His skin feels so soft, yet even a knife can't cut through it!"

Then, Rico touched the spot she had just cut on the mechanical loli and said in surprise:

"And there wasn't even a trace left. By the way, isn't this skin much smoother and more delicate than the last time I touched it? Or is it just my imagination?"

However, Rico quickly put this matter out of her mind, clapped her hands, and said:

"Well, never mind, let's move on to the next target!"

As she spoke, Riko took out something that looked like a drill from her backpack and said:

"Next, let's try using a manual drill to see if we can drill through this robotic arm!"

After saying that, Rico drilled hard on the mechanical arm of the mechanical loli for a while and found that apart from the original marks, she had not left any marks at all after drilling for a long time.

"Hmm...surprisingly sturdy, this robot..."

Riko, utterly helpless against the mechanical loli lying on the haystack, threw her hand drill to the ground, looked exhausted, and slumped onto the mechanical loli as if giving up, saying:

"Ah...so tired...I'm never dissecting this robot again...it's so hard..."

Yuhaka, standing to the side, patted Riko's head in a comforting manner and said:

"Rico, be good..."

Watching Riko and the others acting cute and silly, Nanachi rubbed her sleepy eyes, yawned, and said to them:

"Okay...you guys take your time, I'm going to sleep now, I'm so sleepy..."

Riko and Yuhaka looked at Nanachi as she went into the bedroom to sleep, then exchanged glances. Riko pushed up her glasses, her fighting spirit renewed, and said:

"Alright! Let's continue! I won't go back until dawn! Yu-Yu-chan, let's do our best together!"

Although Yuhaka didn't know what to do, she nodded in agreement, just like Riko.

"Alright! First, take off these annoying pants!"

"Um OwO!"

Tear————

"Oops... my pants are ripped..."

"Hmm..."

...[After a scene featuring fan service was censored]...

"Huh? Youyou, did the child just move?!"

[Hmm? A child's voice?]

"Yes, it moved."

Is anyone talking?

"Really!? Then let's boost Yu-Yu's power!"

Hmm... never mind...

"Oh~"

Let me sleep a little longer...

Bilibili——————!

"Ughh ...

Riko, watching the awakened mechanical loli with a sparkling expression, said:

"Oh! You're awake! Youyou, did you see me!?"

Yuu, who was standing nearby, pulled her large tail off the helmet on the mechanical loli's head, then lay down next to Riko. She looked at the awakened mechanical loli and nodded, saying:

"Yes, Youyou, I saw it."

Where am I...?

The mechanical loli looked at the bespectacled, blonde, twin-tailed loli leaning close to her, puffing out white breath and bombarding her with questions, with great confusion. However, still puzzled, the mechanical loli addressed the bespectacled, blonde, twin-tailed loli [Riko]:

"I'm sorry to ask you that—"

Before the mechanical loli could finish speaking, Riko, who was standing nearby, hugged her and said:

"It spoke! How cute!"

"—I want to know..."

"What?! You can ask me anything!"

The mechanical loli looked at Riko and said:

"here……"

No... I should have asked first...

"where is it?"

Who am I?

Upon hearing the mechanical loli's question, Riko opened her arms and said to the mechanical loli:

"This is Nanachi's home!"

Then Riko stroked the mechanical loli's head, smiled, and said to her:

"Welcome to the fourth level of the Abyss, adorable robot!"

Chapter 45 [New Member - Reigu-chan]

The next day at noon, at Nanachi's house, located on the fourth level of the Abyss...

"Mmm! This dish called [Bacon Fried Rice] is so delicious!"

"Robot loli... well, she should be called [Regu (laughs)] now," Regu said, wolfing down the bacon fried rice made by Yuhaka. Nanachi, standing beside her, watched Regu with a smile and said:

"Of course, although Yuhaka seems to lack common sense, he's actually quite good at cooking. But then again..."

Nanachi looked at Regu, who was eating bacon fried rice, and said:

"Regu, have your memories returned?"

Hearing Nanachi's words, Regu swallowed a mouthful of rice, scratched the back of her head, and said:

"No...about this...I still can't recall any memories from before..."

Nanachi touched her chin and said:

"Hmm... It looks quite serious, but don't worry too much now. You might gradually remember in the future. Regu, you don't need to worry about anything for now. Just think about it slowly. If you climbed up from the depths of the Abyss as you said, there are ways to help you recover your memories here in the Abyss."

Regu nodded when she heard Nanachi's words and said nothing more, then ate the fried rice made by Yuhaka with a look of enjoyment on her face once again.

...The fried rice is finished~...

After lunch, Regu squatted alone by the hot spring of the old beast located below Nanachi's house, looking at her reflection in the water.

What am I, really?

Looking at her reflection in the water, Regu muttered to herself. She examined her back and sides. If what that blonde, bespectacled loli with the big forehead said about her being a robot or something like that was true?

But if I were a robot, there should be something written on my body, like my name, right?

"Hey!"

Regu took off the animal skin dress (Yohaka's) that Nanachi had made for her, and then threw the dress (without panties) aside.

"Um... um..."

Regu turned over and examined every slightly brownish part of her body, but unfortunately she didn't find any names or codes.

Regu then checked her mechanical arms and feet, and then fired her arms upwards.

call out--

With a whoosh, Regu's mechanical arm was launched, not a rocket punch, but a mechanical arm and forearm connected by something like an iron chain.

As Regu's mechanical arm lost power, it slammed directly onto her head. Regu blushed slightly, scratched her cheeks shyly, and retracted her mechanical arm.

"The extendable robotic arm and... this strange-looking helmet are becoming increasingly suspicious."

Reggae recalled that she seemed to have woken up after being powered on? Because she was a robot?

Recalling the feeling of numbness and pain throughout her body last time, Regu shuddered. But anyone who had been shocked by that kind of current would wake up immediately, right?

Regu looked down at her belly button, tapped it with her fingers, and said:

"Do robots even need belly buttons?"

With this question in mind, Regu followed the gaze downwards, and her face immediately turned red.

"Ugh...Is this necessary too!?"

"Won't we need to charge it later?"

"Charging? Does Regu need to be charged?"
