Artemis and his two Elite Androids were walking through the forest on their side of the line. As the situation went on, the greenery of the forest has started to fade due to lack of sunlight and it was only a matter of time before they would stumble upon the scorched areas of the forest. The scorched areas were the place of battle, where man and machine fought against one another, where magic and science clashed.

Artemis has decided to temporarily ignore the supposed evolution of his two Elite Androids, as long as he was always on alert, he was in no risk of being jumped on by his own Droids. Along the way, however, he and his Androids conversed as if a senior officer was talking to two other soldiers lower in rank.

As they walked through the forest, the sounds of war became ever more louder. This gave Artemis the idea to inspect the front and how his army was doing.

"Splendid idea! Our master is ever so thoughtful," Michael said in his british accent, Artemis decided to call the Androids by names.

(Anyone who read Curing the Multiverse, the two robotic idiot twins are back!)

"Master, how shall the army behind us respond if a line near us is breached?" Johnathan asked as they strode through the forest. He has a deep but a seductive male tone, if he was a human in nature, he'll immediately get his own personal harem. Unfortunately, that seductive male voice was interrupted by his robotic sound.

"Simple, the army is to respond immediately, we can't risk breaches since it would threaten the integrity of the front," Artemis answered.

"Master-"

Artemis raised his right hand as a signal to stop moving. The three then knelt onto the floor and took their weapons.

"For one, please call me commander, it's more fitting and also you are not my slaves, don't call me master," Artemis asked the Androids, it was more of a direct order but Artemis wanted them to feel that it was a simple request. But of course, he does not know how to make it sound like a simple request.

"Yes, commander"

"Aye, commander"

The Androids were able to comply immediately, it seems like everything Artemis says is an order to them regardless of the tone or the sarcasm if Artemis was ever going to sarcasm at least.

"Now, stop talking and observe the trees in front of me,"

The Androids followed Artemis' order and scanned the foliage in front of them.

"Commander, we are near the middle line"

"Aye, Johnathan, we can see several of our own fighting in the distance,"

"Several?" Artemis looked at Michael and asked. He was confused, the middle line should have the most concentrations of Androids due to the fact that the middle line served as the backbone of the line.

"Yes, commander, we can only see several of our own, other forces are nowhere to be found," Johnathan replied.

"Oh no," Artemis whispered.

It was at this moment did Artemis finally realize the threat that was upon them, he didn't really think it would happen but it seems like it has become a reality. The line has been spread too thin. The front has spread too thin for the Machime Empire's mere tens of thousands of Androids to cover, it was a miscalculation and a disaster.
