## Description
In a certain laboratory, research was underway to create an artificial life form with abilities greater than those of humans. This research was finally beginning to bear fruit...

The protagonist who works there had been forced by the other researchers on her team to see to the lifeform's raising.

Having been called a genius since childhood, with no memory of being treated as a child, and never knowing much love from her parents, the protagonist feels uneasy about raising a child, even if it is for research purposes...
