After Sophia was taken home, she did not speak for a long time as she was traumatized. She also felt like she was still trembling all over.

Taking some people with him to look for Phantom Wolf, Michael still did not return when it had gotten dark outside.

Nathan did not hear about the incident that night and had gone to bed early. Back in her own room, Sophia was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She was worried about Michael and wondered if they had caught Phantom Wolf yet.

Nicholas stayed by her side.

“Don’t be scared anymore, Mom. I’ve chased that bad guy away! I’ll protect you from now on!”

He stood by the head of the bed. His glimmering eyes made him seem like a clever child.

The expression on her face did not look good. While she was looking at him though, she felt gratified. If it were not for Nicholas today, she might not have made it back alive.

“You’re the bravest, Nicholas. I love you!” She caressed his robotic head.

His eyes crinkled as if he was smiling. “Dad also complimented me for being brave today!”

Sophia gazed curiously at his hand. There was a black object in his hand earlier that he used to shoot something. It hit Phantom Wolf and made him falter.

 

“Nicholas, can I see what’s in your hand?”

He answered, “It’s a new feature Uncle Linus gave me. If we ever meet a bad guy in the future, I can protect you, Mom.”

Linus upgraded Nicholas just yesterday. Who knew he had added such a profound feature?

The timing of this upgrade couldn’t have been better!

Sophia looked for some tools to open his exterior. She found that all his internal parts were replaced with more advanced materials. After connecting Nicholas to the computer, she also noticed that his system had been upgraded. It had an additional defense feature that allowed him to lock on and attack a target with a weapon in the shortest amount of time.
