The expression that Gigabrain Rui had made when he saw his daughter stand before him was exactly the kind of expression that Rui imagined himself making.
It was an expression of a profoundly deep self-loathing. If he had gone berzerk such that his own daughter needed to throw herself at him in order to stop him, then he had failed as a father. In her memories, a week had passed since Rui had begun his rampage. Shortly after destroying Gaia, he teleported to the Web of War, destroying it in one fell swoop.
Divine Mother —o-o—o herself came to fight him off, but he crushed her effortlessly. After destroying the Web of War, however, he had turned around to attack the human forces, fighting many of the strongest pathwalkers of human civilization.
