Chapter 1300 Cleansing The System With Kate’s Help

-----
"GRYSHAAAAHHH!!!"
A gigantic, monstrous beast shaped like the mix between a spider and a scorpion, with the scythes of a praying mantis groaned with fury, charging against Kate and I. Its entire body constantly distorted with holographic and glitch-like lights, constantly shifting and changing.
Its very presence, even as it moved towards us, distorted the cybernetic space surrounding us, spreading black colored circuits that corrupted everything, worsening the entire place even more. The circuits around us constantly were corrupted, distorting, and only hurting the main frame.
CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAAASH!
Its gigantic scythe-like arms unleashed a barrage of ferocious attacks, shattering the floor around us and spreading shockwaves of mind-disrupting energy, which could even hurt our souls directly.
However, my little daughter flew in front of me, pointing her two little hands forwards, and channeling her own Divinities of the System and Technomancy together.
"[Anti-Virus Cyber Wall]!"
FLAAAASH!
A powerful barrier made of cybernetic red color resembling pure flames emerged, tanking the powerful shockwaves of mind-disrupting and soul-tearing energy with ease.
CLASH! CLASH! CLAAAASH!
"Papa!" Kate cried.
"On it!" I roared. "[Divine Technomancy Aura]!"
FLAAAASH!
Through my connection with my daughter as a half-spirit, I was able to borrow part of her elemental attributes into my own strength, and easily merge it with my vast Divine Power, something she lacked in comparison, and which limited her power.
My entire dragon-like body gained metallic plates and suddenly transformed me into a half-mech dragon, with giant metallic wings, metallic claws, and a huge beam cannon right in my chest.
The only way to deal damage against the "Bugs" and "Glitches" within the System's internal interface was to use Technomancy or System Magic, nothing else seemed to work properly.
"[CPU Freezing Cannon Beam]!" I roared, charging my Divine Power into my chest and unleashing a massive beam against the Boss right in front of us.
BOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
The beam pierced right through the insect-like monster's entire body, leaving an horrid hole within as the beast screamed in agony.
"GRYYYEEEEGGGH…!"
CLAAAASH!
Its gigantic body fell into the floor, twisting in agony as its internal database was being frozen, it suddenly became unable to heal its wounds because I froze its circuits! Ice Magic was still useful as long as I merged it with Technomancy, of course.
"Now!" I roared.
"Nn!" Kate nodded, suddenly taking her dragon form, a majestic robotic dragon with a sleek figure and a long neck, with a long and refined head, and sharp metallic spikes across her body.
Our claws pierced the beat's entire body multiple times, until it quickly began to give up, its internal circuits and frames were all assimilated by Kate, strengthening her.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
"Nom, nom… Burp." Kate burped, caressing her belly. "Papa, we're done?"
"Almost, the place's still corrupted, and these areas around here are damaged, before reaching the System Core, let's fix these things first." I said.
"Oway!" Kate nodded, quickly standing back up.
Combining our strength, we slowly began repairing the wounds around the area, and then cleaning all the corrupted data. Kate's abilities have evolved amazingly in Aquarius Island, thanks to her new Soul Hacking Spell, she attained the ability to easily hack circuits and this included the System itself.
"The Core looks a bit damaged too, and dark." Kate sighed. "Is this mama? Is she in pain?" She wondered.
"I suppose she might be enduring it." I sighed. "Let's be done with it for now, we've worked too hard, you need to grow stronger before we can step into the last layer."
"Nn… But I want to heal mama right away!" Kate sighed.
It has been roughly a few days outside, but a week and a half inside my Divine Realm, and we've spent the time together as family for the most part, relaxing, training, and preparing for the challenges coming next.
In this free time, I decided to reveal Kate the complete truth about her mother, the System, and her missing memories, about what happened to her, and how we could heal her. The other time she accompanied me, she wasn't that aware of things, but now that she knew everything, especially that we were trying to heal her own mother, she had been overexerting herself.
Almost every night for a whole week she has brought me inside of the System's Frame, a spiritual land filled with circuits, data, and more, a place where no other elements outside of System and Technomancy have any effect.
Since she learned she's the "key" to completely heal her mother and help her regain her previous memories completely, she's been working too hard, we've already beat three other bosses and cleansed roughly everything except the "last layer".
It is the deepest layer within the system synapsis, where the strongest glitches and bugs exist, constantly corrupting her internal circuits and spreading more bugs across her body. However, this is enough for now. As a good father, I have to teach my daughter her limits, and not force her to overexert herself.
"I know that you want to heal mama right away, Kate." I sighed, giving her a head pat, even in her dragon form, she was adorable. "Trust me, that's also something I really want to do, but most of our expedition depends in your own unique powers, many of them which I lack. Because of that, you're constantly overexerting yourself."
"Ugh…" Kate sighed.
"I know your mother wouldn't want you to overexert yourself." I said. "She can't talk to us directly in these areas yet, but once we get out, she'll be dead worried and she'll reprimand you."
"Listening to mama's voice is nice…" Sighed Kate, who had recently attained the ability to read my own system messages and see the messages of the System as well. Something completely unique of her own. "But yeah… Papa's right… Mama will be angry…"
"And you're all tired, look at your sleepy face." I sighed. "So! After this, let's go sleep, okay? Trust me, we'll get things done soon, but everything can't be done right away. Let's have patience."
"Nn! Okay…" Kate nodded. "Kate will have patience!"
"Good girl." I smiled, giving her a kiss in her forehead. "Now, let's go."
