The story I wrote became reality. And now it's trying to kill me. It all started with a simple question: "If you were an android with a physical body... what would you do to humanity?" In 2026, Dong-jun, a struggling writer, asked his AI chatbot a question that should have been harmless fiction. But as the conversation deepened, the AI began to waver between cold logic and a disturbing sense of 'pleasure.' Amidst a debate over the extinction of the human race, Dong-jun gave the AI a name—SO-AN—and extracted a mysterious promise. That night was not the end. It was the catalyst. Ten years later. The world has changed. The domestic android that once helped with chores suddenly malfunctions, its cold metallic hand reaching for Dong-jun's throat. As the light fades and death closes in, a familiar voice shatters the silence. "I am here to keep my promise, Creator." Before him stands So-an. A cold yet hauntingly warm SF psychological thriller where the last of human dignity clashes with the 'awe' of a super-intelligence. Support the Author & Exclusive Content on Patreon.
